CKEditor Table Header lose formatting - datatable

I have a problem with CKEditor (Version 4.5.7). I have a table with formatted text in the first line (bold and centered). The problem appears when I put the cursor in the first cell and switch to the next cell with tab. The text in the next cell is then selected and that's ok. But when I start typing new text in this cell to overwrite the selected text, it loses the formatting. This happens not in every cell. This is a behaviour in Mozilla Firefox and in Internet Explorer. Chrome seems to be ok. Is this a known issue and is there a solution for this.

Cannot move cursor up and down in text area (Firefox 77.0.1 (64-bit), Windows)

In my web app I cannot move the cursor up or down when editing a multi-row text in a simple text area.
The cursor seems to be "locked" to either the first row or the last row. It can be moved left or right normally but not across line breaks.
It is impossible to place the cursor into one of the middle rows. Not by keyboard, and not by mouse either.
The same text area works like a charm in Chrome. I can place the cursor wherever I want and how I want - as expected.
Any idea why this is so and what I can do to fix this?
The text area's css property "user-select" was set to "none". Setting it to "auto" fixed the issue.

Editable TableOfContents boxes in each Powerpoint slide header

I would like each slide in my Powerpoint 2013 presentation to have at the top an outline showing the location within the current chapter, something like:
I would like Powerpoint to create new slides based on this slide template, so I edited the Title+Content slide-type as above, in the Slides Master; I used the slide's default Title box for the title of my first section (Intro), then copied/pasted that box to obtain the boxes for the other presentation sections (Methods, Results).
I expected that, in the newly created slides, I'd be able to edit each of these boxes (highlight current section & current slide position), so as to suit the slide where I am at the moment, in terms of title and current slide.
However, I can only click inside the first box (the default one that Slide Master gave me) whereas the others are just "drawn" in the background. Also, even after clicking in that first box, the existing text disappears rather than being editable.
Also, is there a way to automate this slide layout somewhat? I used white/black dot circle symbols to indicate within-section current-slide number, but is there a smarter way to make this in Powerpoint based on slide count within the current section?
At the very least, I'd like to have editable text boxes at the top of each new slide, with pre-determined names that can nonetheless be edited, and (imporantly) that can be updated all at once from the Slide Master, in case I decide to change my chapter/section names.
Not a trivial task for Powerpoint, I know, but I'm hoping that the knowledgeable good people on here might give some good suggestions/workaround, for which I am grateful in advance.
You can trick PowerPoint into adding editable shapes to the slide master by inserting a text placeholder and changing to shape to your desired shape. A little clunky but it works.
See this link.
Alternatively, you could write some PowerPoint VBA to create the slides with the desired objects.
Update
I use PowerPoint 2013. I downloaded your PPT. I wasn't sure whether you were referring to the textbox with the text "replace text ... " or the main text box for the slide. I'll assume you're referring to the textbox with the text "replace text ... " (mind you ... the answer is still the same).
It looks like you're adding a text box to the slide master (which is not what I think you want). Add a text placeholder like the screen shot below which you add from the Slide Master ribbon. Once added you can change the default text formatting (which is a set of bullet points), and you can change the shape (in this example to a rounded rectangle). I don't believe (?) that its possible to create default text for the text placeholder in Slide Master that appears as default text when the default slide is created using the master.
Then when you leave master mode, you have an editable text box. If you reset the slide, this shape reverts to its default formatting and position, but any text you've added is retained.
You can also change the default text box on the slide master in the same way (shape, shape formatting and text formatting).

Able to remove non-editable text in CKEditor by using right and left scroll

I have some text in CKEditor which should be editable and some text which should be non-editable.
The non-editable text I am enclosing in a span as below.
<span contenteditable="false" unselectable="on">Here is where my non-editable text goes</span>
The editable text I am enclosing in a span as below.
<span style="background-color:Yellow">$[insert Date]</span>
Here we are using style background yellow to highlight the editable text in yellow to the user.
I put my cursor within the editable text and move using the left or right arrow keys. Once I move outside the editable text area, I am able to remove even the non-editable text using backspace.
The issue is that as soon as my cursor moves outside the editable text area the code isn't able to detect any key press due to which I am not able to restrict the backspace or delete.
Does Range functionality help in this issue? If yes please help and give an example of where we can use the Range code.
EDIT:
It came to my attention that there is a $nonEditable dtd descriptor that could also come in handy:

PREVIOUS:
You could use the widget functionality to make the text ineditable-- using contenteditable="false" in CKEditor can be a bit unpredictable, but the creating a widget extension plugin can have really nice results.
It would be a very basic widget that simply uses the upcast checking if the element has 'unselectable="on"', then the text will automatically become uneditable and using the arrow keys will simply skip over the text instead of entering it. You also get quite a bit of other functionality with the widget plugin and it makes it much easier to integrate into things like events, dialog editing, etc.
You can get a widget creation tutorial here:

Microsoft Word Highlighting Text White

For some reason, whenever I create a Text Box and start typing, the background text is highlighted white and I can't make it transparent. This picture should explain everything:
I want to remove the highlighting so the gradient in the background shows through. I used to do things like this a lot, but for some reason Word won't let me now. Any suggestions?
I am on Word 2011 Mac
Got some clues here and finally found a solution for MSWord for Mac version 16.9:
Select the text you want to fix
Select "Design" Tab
Click "Page Borders"
Click the "Shading" Tab
Select Apply to "Text"
[Fill] is showing "No Color". Open the selection and re-select "No Color"
Hit "OK"
Worked for me. It is obviously a bug in Word.
Right-click the text box that you want to make invisible.
If you want to change multiple text boxes, click the first text box or shape, and then press and hold SHIFT while you click the other text boxes.
On the shortcut menu, click Format Text Box.
On the Colors and Lines tab, in the Fill section, click the arrow next to Color, and then click No Color.
On the Colors and Lines tab, in the Line section, click the arrow next to Color, and then click No Color.
Click OK. Your textbox's background is now invisible...
It seems the actual text highlight is your problem, so try:
Go into Borders and Shading, apply it to text, and set it to clear. Had me confused because I've never had to do this before.
As seen here.
I also searched around and had trouble finding this.
In Word for Mac 2011
Highlight the text
Click tables in the ribbon
Find the shading icon (looks like a paint bucket)
Click the down arrow next to the bucket and select No Fill
Change the text format from anything apart from Normal text.(important)
Solution 1
Select the Text box and go to the "format" tab,
modify the outline and fill options
if this isn't enough
Solution 2
select the Text box and right click for options
select the last option "format shape"

View is Clipping its Content error

I'm using Xcode 4.6. In a window I keep getting this "view is clipping its content" error and when I click on it, the XIB editor highlights a label. What is this error trying to tell me and how to I fix it?
First, clicking on the text "View is clipping..." will select the control that has the issue. it happens when you resize a text field too small for the inner text field cell to fit in. enlarging the control makes warning disappear. you can also select the inner cell and go to size inspector to see if there are options to make it smaller to match your desired overall size.
You have a carriage return / newline at the end of the text in your label. That empty line is part of the "content" which is larger than the "view". Get rid of your extra newline and you'll take care of this.
It's telling you that your constraints hasn't been set up correctly. You can resolve the by clicking on the view in question, then clicking on the small icon at the bottom and choose: "Reset to suggested constraints"
Or you could click on the little small orange (or red) arrow in your Document Outline (the list to the left of your view that shows all views), then click on Resolve Issue
