Why doesn't ImmSetOpenStatus work the first time? - ime

I use ImmSetOpenStatus to close the input method editor under Win7 Chinese version.
However, I notice that it does not work the first time. Why?
Thank you.

I found it is a bug of the Sogou pinyin Chinese IME.

Can anyone tell me a better and free alternative to sumblime text editor?

I am using sublime text editor for last few months...Recently I have decided to create a video tutorial...but the message that sublime shows (it is unregistered) is annoying...So can anyone tell me an alternative that works exactly like sublime (something that can ease your life while working on some project)...
Depending on what kind of code you're working with, you can give Netbeans or Brackets a try too

Window too narrow - allows only one character per line

I have a weird problem in Excel's Visual Basic Editor: it shows me a very thin textfield with only one character per line and no way to alter the dimensions.
Has anybody experienced a similar problem or is there a way to open macros in a text editor as a workaround?
System: Mac OS 10.11.1, Office 2016 v15.13.1, already tried reinstall.
According to this link by Visual Basic support in Office for Mac 2016 is almost non existent. So a workaround would be to install an earlier version for the use of macros.
Thanks to Meehow for pointing it out.
I experience the same issue.
You can copy all code, edit it in a text editor before pasting the content back into the VB Editor. It's ugly but it works.
Selecting all via Cmd+A works even if you can't visualise it.

Watir-Webdriver Windows Firefox slow text entry

I have prepared web testing script on Mac OSX with watir-webdriver. It was running fine with Firefox. However, then I ran the script on Windows with Firefox and the text entry is slow, like typing each word individually. I have read couple of threads in regards to this problem, but never came to the solution. Maybe someone could shed some light on this.
Please also kindly note that I use browser.element(:xpath).set "text" to locate the elements to set the text.
Thank you very much in advance.
The issue has been resolved using Clipboard gem. Instead of using .set or .value methods, I started using Clipboard copy / paste, which worked perfectly. I still do not consider this as best solution, but it can get the job done.

[mono]Arabic text rendering in linux / monodevelop 2.6

I've been instructed to port a .NET/C# Windows application to linux (XUbuntu 11.10 or SliTaz 4). This application should be capable of rendering Arabic texts in part or all of its texts.
I managed to modify the Windows application so that it properly shows Arabic texts. I had to switch UseCompatibilityText to true.
When in linux, I tried to look for the same property. No luck. Is it a question of being using an old version of Mono? Is it something not yet supported?
Is there any way around this issue?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Ok, I'm new to MonoDevelop, but I saw your posting, and I have to say that when I tried to use Arabic in an "entry" box as a quick test, I had no trouble. This MD is straight out of the box, I didn't have to do anything other than coding and grab a small piece of Arabic text. I am using MD 2.8.8.6 on my mac.
Oops, let me check the same on my Linux box. I am using Kubuntu 12.04, and MD 2.8.6.3, and the same test above works. I'm not sure what exactly isn't working on yours, maybe my test is not extensive enough, or maybe you want to upgrade your version?
Cheers

CLIPS> (readline)
""
I'm using latest version of http://clipsrules.sourceforge.net/
This was just a bog on that version i was using.
It seems that the bug was present only in the Windows version, that with a GUI.
If you run it with the one frm command prompt it worked fine.
I reported the bug on their google group, they confirmed and i think it is fixed by now.
Check (readln)...
Good luck!
