I programmed a GUI in Matlab (using guide). I have a text box in which I try to set strings. whenever I tried to put the string 'remove' using.
set(handles.sentence,'string','remove');
I get blank. if I put:
set(handles.sentence,'string','REMOVE');
it presents 'REMOVE' in the text box.
thank you.
This is documented:
The words default, factory, and remove are reserved words that will not appear in text when quoted as a normal characters. To display any of these words individually, precede them with a backslash, such as '\default' or '\remove'.

I am trying to change format of all REF fields surrounded by square brackets, such as "[{REF ... \h \t}]". My approach is to search and select all the target fields and then apply format change command, for example Highlight.
A attempt search "[\d" Word delivers selected only the left part of the field, but if I search "\d]" then Word finds nothing.
Is there a way to do such search via GUI or VBA?
Thank you.
In Sublime text editor, I have a text as below (taking notes for nodejs in markdown format)
In Nodejs, command-line arguments will be stored in the process object and in the process object there is a property called argv(argument vector) and arguments will be stored in the form of array
If I want to search all process words and add markdown back-ticks quotes(`) around them, How can I do this in sublime ?
If there are no places where the string "process" is in the middle of a word, such as "subprocess", I would do:
Press Ctrl+f to open search.
Enter process in the search field.
Press Alt+Enter to select all coincidences.
Edit accordingly.
If I wanted to check each coincidence to avoid adding the quote marks erroneously I would instead do:
Press Ctrl+h to open search and replace.
Enter process in the search field.
Enter `process` in the replace field.
Click Find to see the next coincidence.
Click Replace or Find as necessary.
Google Docs has a "feature" that sometimes converts four spaces to one tab.
Copying and pasting text does not solve this problem, because the spaces in that text are converted to tabs automatically.
Is there a way to turn this off?
No way to turn of that I know of. So annoying.
You can work-around using normal copy-paste, then a search-and-replace.
Copy-Paste you content into the Google Doc
In a text-editor, enter a tab character then cut it to your clipboard
Back in Google Docs, highlight the content you wish to fix
Hit Ctrl + H to open Find and replace dialogue
Paste the tab character into the Find field
Insert 4 space characters into the Replace with field
Click Replace all
The approach that caused me the least headaches was to replace all spaces by another character (say underscore) in the original text, copy/paste it, then replace the underscore using find+replace. This was in Google slides.
i use cmd+shift+v (edit -> paste without formatting) to paste.
The spaces are not converted to tabs.
I did find one solution: there is a Chrome plugin called "Drive Notepad" which edits google drive files and has an option "Tabs: hard"
I have big data at excel, and some cells contains html codes. These cells have line breaks in them. I tried to replace line breaks (Alt+010, \n) but excel said there is no char like this.
When I copied cell to notepad, there is no line break.
When I copied from notepad to phpmyadmin sql area or textpad, I see line breaks again.
There are notepad, textpad and phpmyadmin sql area screenshots below. How can I remove these invisible line breaks?
This could be a problem with Carriage Return + Line Feed. When you press Alt+Enter in Excel it only incerts a Line Feed. But if you somehow get both Carriage Return + Line Feed in a cell that could leed to additional problems. See this page for solutions:

Did you try to remove any unnecessary tab within the code? Also check for some trivial things like e.g string max length in your mysql database or editor's miscellaneous settings.
EDIT. oh, I forgot. It may be also caused by your language settings, check for default database's regional coding preset and if Turkish is currently supported.
Line breaks - do you mean the line breaks you could introduce in Excel with ALT+ENTER?
Then you could use Search / Replace option in Excel without need to copy your content to another tool:
Open it and introduce in Search for CTRL+J (you will receive a point displayed in the search field).
In Replace you could introduce what you want (nothing, a space, a semicolon, ...).
Select Replace all.
EDIT:
I've tested it by copying html from textpad to one cell using clipboard. With this the method described by me is not working.
But there is another solution: Open replace command, for "search string" introduce ALT-Key (keep it pressed), then introduce by using the numeric key pad (on the right side of a "standard" keyboard) the tree digits 0 1 0 and finally release ALT-Key (you will see a point displayed in the search field). Choose as replacement string what you want and choose replace all.
Function =clean() helped me. Find/replace with ALT+J worked to replace, but did not fully deleted all the invisible characters in the string, so the cell was still misbehaving with text in columns. The =clean() function finally removed all the invisible characters left there.
I'm using Excel's Get & Transform to get data from a text file. The problem is that the textfile has special characters and those are not correctly displayed. So I have a sheet with this data, and I have also imported one with the character debug list, which shows e.g. that À should be À.
The only option I see is "replace values" which requires me to go in manually and change each of the 128 characters. Is there any way to replace all the special characters using the character debug list?
Or any other way to do it?
Thanks :)
