Creating a button that will Copy my view from so I can paste it to MS Word

Is there a way I can create a button that will copy my view from so I can paste it MS Word?
I know I can select the entire form and copy and paste it, but is there a way to do it via a button similar to my "Print Form" button?
Thank you.

so there isn't a button that will copy the text my view form?
instead of highlighting the data I want to easily copy it so I can paste it on a word document
I came up with a script that when a item is highlighted I click the copy to clipboard and it copies the item.
<script type="text/javascript">
function CopyToClipboard()
CopiedTxt = document.selection.createRange();
CopiedTxt.execCommand("Copy");
</script>
but is there a way I can put in the script the area I want to start the copy from instead of highlighting the text first?

  • I need instructions on how to create a button that will email a pdf form to someone else on a websit

    I NEED ASSISTANCE CREATING A BUTTON THAT WILL EMAIL A PDF FORM FROM A WEBSITE TO WHOEVER THE VIEWER WANTS TO

    Just a bit more info. E-mail can be used, but has potential problems -- often related to the client machine that you have no control over. Use the data submissions (either FDF or XML) rather than the full PDF so you do not have to deal with Reader Rights and the related license issues. The FDF and XML data files are easily imported into the original form so that you see what the client sees. With those aspects in mind, just go ahead and try one. Be aware that you can add form fields using the form tools in the Advanced Editing tools, OR use the forms menu that will take you to Designer. You might want to try both to see the pros and cons. Be sure to keep such a test simple so you are not wasting time on your final form just for testing. I typically create a 1 page form that has all of the possible fields for such a test.

  • Acrobat 9.0 Std - How do I create a button that will show / hide the menu bar?

    In Adobe Acrobat 8, I was able to create a button that would show the menu bar using Link Properties. In version 9.0, the option I used is missing.
    The other view options are there under "Execute a menu item": View > Toolbars > File, Edit, etc.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated - thanks!

  • Can I create a button that will take me to a random slide in a sequence?

    Let's say I have three simulations setup and the simulations start on slide 5, 15, and 23. Can I make a button that will randomly jump to one of those slides?

    You have to execute that script using an event, in this case you'll use the Success event of the button that you created to 'jump'. And it will probably be an advanced action, unless you execute the JS with the On Enter event of the slide. You have two commands: first to execute the script, second to jump to that slide, for which you'll have to use a system variable cpCmndGotoSlide and the value of the variable returned by the JS. Slide numbering starts with index 0.

  • How to create an action that will crop two sections from one scanned image?

    I'm trying to create an action that will automate the process of cropping the left and right pages from a series of two-page book scans.
    I tried to create a 2 step action which first crops the left half of a scan (by setting the left margin to 0in and the right margin to 6in) and then the right half of the scan (by setting the left margin to 6in and the right margin to. 12in), however when executing, only the left half appears to be cropped.
    I imagine this is due to the fact that once one side of the initial scan is cropped, the other side disappears.
    Is there any way around this?

    Basically i need to create a new document out of a folder full of images.
    You may have to look into Scripting to achieve something like this.
    You could ask in the Scriptimg Forum
    Photoshop Scripting
    But maybe it would suffice to insert the Menu Item
    File – Scripts – Load Files into Stack
    into the Action and then iterate through the Layers with [ or ] and reset the opacities and Blend Modes – but as Actions would not be able to change the number of repetitions of the operation conditionally a custom Script would still seem preferable. 

  • Can you create a button that will go to multiple key frames?

    Hi, I am trying to make a rpg style character select interface.  What i am trying to do is very similar to the picture below. How do you create a button like the stats, gear, and supplies that will each show a different image or text depending on which character you choose. If noone have played this marvel facebook game before, if you choose for instance Ironman, then the buttons on the right change to stats, bio, and gear. Each character will show a different bio when the bio button is clicked. Do i create a different screen for each character with the same button layout in the same place? I think i just answered my own question but i want to make sure that is possible. Should each character portrait, stats, bio, and gear be on its own layer and have the buttons go to those specific keyframes? thanks

    While you could create a different screen for each, a better way to do this is via some form of database.  The buttons cause functions to be executed and the functions utilize data resources based on the selections that are established.
    So if you pick a particular character, a variable is a assigned a value that indicates that.  That variable is then utilized to extract the data associated with the character and to build the screen elements related to the options for that character.

  • How do i create a button that will always play my flv, not just once?

    I'm currently using captivate 5.5 and need to use a button to load my flv.  That button works fine and when the flv finishes it returns me back to the slide with the button on, the problem is the button no longer works when you press it again if you want to see the flv again...help!  My flv is set up to not be visible as I want it to be hidden until the button is pressed as it cover my entire slide when it loads.  I set it to run for the duration of the clip so it's great when it returns me to my slide but then the button won't make it visible again when you press it.  I tried setting the button to enable after show hoping it would reset the button but that doesn't work...as you can see I only know the basics of Captivate!

    The issue may be due to the fact that once you've clicked the button its Success criteria has been used.  This can be reset by re-entering the slide where the button is located.
    So in order to have your video play multiple times, you may need to use a different strategy than your current one.  You could try placing the video on a different slide to your button.  Set the button click to jump to that slide, and once the video has finished playing, set the OnSlideExit action to jump back to the slide with the button.  That way your button gets reset each time ready for another click to launch the video slide.

  • Creating a button that will make fill in fields read only.

    I am having problems trying to research this issue that I am having, so thank you in advance to all who reads this and assists.
    What the overall goal is for me to create a form that I can send to a client and whenever they type the variable information in, they would check a box that would a) hide itself and b) lock certain fields but leave at least one open so they can send it off to their clients without worry of information thy have entered changing.  My client has acrobat reader and I am looking for the easiest solution without having to suggest them to upgrade. Also, I am not that familliar with java scripting (yet) so some of the forums I have read seem rather confusing to me even when I try to use the scripts provided.

    Just insert a link that uses mailto in the Add Filter or links dropdown just like you would with any other hyperlink.
    Example:
    mailto:[email protected]

  • Is there a Button menu option that will allow one view the names of all the buttons already created?

    Is there a Button menu option in InDesign CS 5.5 that will allow one view the names of all the buttons already created?

    Thanks for your prompt feedback! However, this option does not work for me -- and I'm not sure exactly why.
    Originally, when I tried your suggestion, I got the unsatisfactory result illustrated in the following help request: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/758172
    Now I am in the process of testing several new add-ons to fix this problem, and I am getting a very different (and even more unsatisfying) result illustrated in the attached image -- so I realize the problem may now be compounded by one or more of the new add-ons.
    (See the attached image that illustrates what happens now when I click on the MyDocs URL after is has been added to my Bookmarks tree.)
    UPDATE: I'm going to try the LocalLinks add-on to see if this will help me open local links using my FireFox bookmarks: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/locallink/
    Will let you know if it works....

    I am new at Captivate 8 and I have created a learning project using an existing power point presentation.  I have added a button that will allow my students to view a video on the subject.  When I run the project in Preview the button works but when I publish it, it stops working.

    I added an Interactions button and in the Actions on Success I open an URL or file. I have placed the video on our web server.   In the URL I point to our web server "http://www.wmabhs.org/Media/Add Client 3rd Party Coverage.mp4".  If I run this from any browser it works.  So what do you think I have done wrong?

  • I want to create a "Play All" chapter marker that will play the video from start to finish in addition to the standard chapters I have-I guess I can auto start the DVD but would prefer a button-how and where would I put this "play all" marker??

    I want to create a "Play All" chapter marker that will play the video from start to finish in addition to the standard chapters I have…I guess I can auto start the DVD but would prefer a button…how and where would I put this "play all" marker?? Thanks..

    The start chapter button is a play the whole movie button regardless of how many other markers you have.
    Once a DVD starts playing it continues to the end.
    Chapters marker simply gives the viewer a place to start playback whether it be the start, middle or near the end.

    It's probably the fields highlight color of the application, which you can change via Edit - Preferences - Forms.

    For example, when I click the button on the website, then the next time to paste somewhere, a specific text appears?
    If this is possible, could someone please explain how? =(

    Hi Travis,
    There is no native feature in Muse to achieve this. However, you can use custom code to achieve this. Please refer to the following link for the sample code : How to copy to the clipboard in JavaScript? - Stack Overflow

  • Create a clear button that will clear a jpanel

    so i have two classes. One being a frame, and the other being a panel.
    On the panel, i can draw various shapes with various colours etc. The frame contains the panel, and also a north panel containing various buttons to achieve this.
    What i would i need to do is create a clear button that will clear the panel.
    I know i can go and set it so it's draws a rectangle the same colour as the background but that would be cheating.
    I will post a section of the paint just so you get an idea.
        public void paintComponent(Graphics gPanel) {
            if (this.buffer == null) {
                Dimension d = getSize();
                this.buffer = new BufferedImage(d.width, d.height,
                        BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB_PRE);
                myLineColour = new Color(0, 255, 0);     // initial colour for drawing
                this.g2Buffer = (Graphics2D) this.buffer.getGraphics();
                this.g2Buffer.setColor(Color.white);
                this.g2Buffer.fillRect(0, 0, d.width, d.height);
                // This time we'll draw with a broad pen 
            g2Buffer.setStroke(new BasicStroke(myLineWidth));
            if (myShapeFlag == 1){{
                this.g2Buffer.setColor(Color.white);
                g2Buffer.setXORMode(myLineColour); //go into the overwrite mode
                g2Buffer.drawLine(xStart, yStart, xOld, yOld); // undraw last
                g2Buffer.drawLine(xStart, yStart, xEnd, yEnd);     // draw new
                g2Buffer.setPaintMode();          // out of XOR overwrite mode
                xOld = xEnd;                    // store last end point
                yOld = yEnd;
            if(mouseReleased) {          // final time through
                g2Buffer.setColor(myLineColour);
                g2Buffer.drawLine(xStart, yStart, xEnd, yEnd);     // draw final
                mouseReleased = false;
            gPanel.drawImage(this.buffer, 0, 0, this); }Any help on this would be much appreciated

    no idea how to do this.. sorry...
    for the jbutton action listenener i'm not sure.
    I think i'm on the right tracks with a method
        public void clearPanel(Graphics gPanel){
                g2Buffer.fillRect(100,100,100,100);     // draw final
                gPanel.drawImage(this.buffer, 0, 0, this);
    }but again i think i'm way off the mark..
