Hide Format Bar, and or Ruler on Start:

I've tried looking through the forum here, and in the help files, but I must not be using the right words because I haven't found it yet. And I know it can be done because I've done it before.
I would like to have pages (numbers too, I guess), when it opens a new, blank, document (and all others, really) to not show the Format Bar, Tool Bar, Rulers and etc.
It was working, now all of a sudden...
Any ideas?

Rob,
I can't really address the "It was working, now all of a sudden..." part, but the other part is do-able. Since Pages doesn't offer global preferences to control the appearance of the format bar, tool bar and rulers, the way I'd approach it is by creating a blank template with all the stuff turned off that I don't want, with the styles I need, and the type face that looks the best. Then I'd do a File > Save As Template. You can go into Pages' preferences and have that template always start up whenever you load Pages.

    Good point BDAqua, the Escape key helps get me back to reality in Lion.
    While I've only dabbled around a little in Lion since it's release (I upgraded a 10.6 Clone to Lion on one of my FireWire Drives) now I'm currently downloading Mountain Lion (to upgrade a Clone of that Lion Clone) so that now I can continue to move forward in madness.
    P.S. Trust me, I'm not laughing. 

  • Hide menu bar and title bar in a JFrame

    Hi!
    I'm using a JFrame for a kind of viewer application. I start it as normal, so the JFrame has a JMenuBar with menus and the title bar with the application name.
    So far, all right, but at some point I would like to press a JButton to make the viewer application full screen, that is, hiding the window title bar and the JMenuBar.
    Any idea?
    PD: I've tried the method myJMenuBar.setVisible(false) in order to hide the menu bar, but it seems it doesn't work because I'm using the Look&Feel Metal with border decorations.

    something like this seems to work OK.
    basically, create a JPanel that is the contentPane of the frame, then for full screen
    create a JWindow, add the panel to the window, show the window
    (alt-F4 to close)
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    class Testing
      public void buildGUI()
        JMenu menu = new JMenu("File");
        JMenuItem menuOpen = new JMenuItem("Open");
        JMenuItem menuSave = new JMenuItem("Save");
        JMenuBar menuBar = new JMenuBar();
        menu.add(menuOpen);
        menu.add(menuSave);
        menuBar.add(menu);
        JButton btn = new JButton("Full Screen");
        final JPanel p = new JPanel(new GridBagLayout());
        p.add(btn,new GridBagConstraints());
        final JFrame f = new JFrame();
        f.getContentPane().add(p);
        f.setJMenuBar(menuBar);
        f.setSize(200,100);
        f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
        f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        f.setVisible(true);
        btn.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
          public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae){
            JWindow w = new JWindow(f);
            w.add(p);
            f.setSize(0,0);
            w.setSize(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize());
            w.setVisible(true);

  • Hide menu bar and toolbar

    Hi people,
    Someone knows a way to hide (or deactivate) menus and toolbars in standard transactions? It's possible without coding?
    Tks,
    Douglas

    Hi Douglas,
    You can hide a menu bar via a transaction and screen variant. The T.code is SHD0. No code required, just a development class/package.
      I'm not sure if you have hide tool bars.
    SAP has some good documentation on transaction and screen variants. Below is the link.

    Hi
    your utility is very helpful
    one thing i want ask.... i am using oracle developer suite in that where i can find web server and where i can place the FormStart folder
    Help me in this
    Thanks
    Edited by: maddyd2k on Mar 31, 2011 3:46 AMHi
    first, yes this utility is very useful but it is not mine ;) all credits goes to Peter de Vaal the author !
    for your requirements, take a look at Peter's documentation on how to set up the utility for developer suite (the webserver is the oc4j standalone)
    you must define a virtual path to your FormStart folder and html files :
    Step 2. Define a virtual path
    The FormsStart directory must be made accesible through the http protocol. The way to do this is to define a virtual path for your web server.
    For Oracle Developer Suite the webserver is the stand-alone oc4j. You define a virtual path in file orion-web.xml. This file can be found in:
    <DS_home>\j2ee\DevSuite\application-deployments\default\defaultWebApp
    Add the following line before the </orion-web-app> tag:
         <virtual-directory
                virtual-path="/forms/fs"
                real-path="C:\oracle/FormsStart/html" />
    For Oracle Application Server the webserver is Apache. You can specify virtual paths in httpd.conf or in one of its include files (oracle_apache.conf, forms.conf). We suggest to specify it in forms.conf (in <AS_home>\forms\server, For 9i and 9.0.4 it is: forms90\server\forms90.conf).
    Use Enterprise Manager Website to edit this file (Click on HTTP Server, then on Advanced server Properties, then on forms.conf or forms90.conf).
    Add the following line, below the list of other AliasMatch tags:
    Windows:
    # Virtual path for FormsStart Utility
    AliasMatch ^/forms/fs/(..*) "C:\oracle\FormsStart/html/$1"
    Unix:
    # Virtual path for FormsStart Utility
    AliasMatch ^/forms/fs/(..*) "/app/oracle/FormsStart/html/$1"JeanYves

  • Hide Menu bar and disable dock.

    s there a way to Hide the Menu bar?
    (there must be a way because it gets hidden when watching a movie in full screen in vlc or any other app)
    and is there a way to disable (not hide) the dock?
    thanks.

    Is there a way to Hide the Menu bar?
    The menubar is a consistent interface artifact in Mac OS X and Macs in general which never changes its location, unlike Windows which attach menubars to specific applications. If your purpose is a kiosk style web browser, there is Saft for Safari. Other web browsers have their own built-in kiosk mode for the Mac.
    If you want a menubar to be hidden for other applications, contact the software vendor who makes the software you want the menubar hidden on. Most applications depend on its existence.
    The Dock while put on the right hand side of the screen is less likely to get activated by accident, and will activate more slowly than when on the bottom of the screen if you make it unhidden and magnification off, and then automatically hide it with command-option-D keystroke.

  • How to hide status bar and get fullscreen?

    Hello,
    I have compiled to .ipa and loaded my app onto my iphone.  I have set the app to be fullscreen in the descriptor file, but it does not display fullscreen on my phone.  Initially the UIStatusBar gets hidden like it should, but after the Default.png goes away and the app loads, the status bar comes back.  I have tried setting the UIStatusBarHidden property in the InfoAdditions section, but when I do the PFI throws an error and does not compile my .swf to .ipa.
    Any ideas?  I have compile another app and successfully set it to fullscreen mode by making sure the fullscreen property is set to true.  For some reason it does not work on the current app I am working on.

  • How to hide tab bar and application bar? In ID CS4.

    Hello all!
    Please help! Maybe someone have idea how to disable both?
    It is only waste of space imo. Will not use them for sure...
    Never opening more than 2-3 docs and than can easy use shortcut ctrl+`. Tabbed pages are good in web browser imho... Application bar is also just useless and (as menu itself) too fat. Most of those are in menu and have shortcuts. New features could be in menu as well.
    Don't know why interface changed so much. And why this direction.
    I know monitors are bigger nowdays etc - but are wider rather than higher.
    Also - maybe new interface is great and ppl love it - but would be nice to have a choice. Some may prefere maximize workspace...
    M.

    Thanks for responses...
    Yes - mac users can be really happy. What about PC? What was wrong with classical menu?
    Are designers really works with several documents the same time? So need to use tabs? Well maybe. But those who works with just one or two don't need it really. (Maybe easy solution could be: one doc = no tab, more = tabbed, would be more natural imvho. As well as turning it off for PC users as well.)
    So really no trick similar to 'noallcaps'? Notabsbar? Noapplicationbar?
    "You can turn off the tabs in the preferences, interface section."
    Yes, I can - but no more place coz of this... Window isn't maximized in fact - is floating, what also personally I don't like. Anyway - it is the same size and use the same space as before... If u make next one doc it is even smaller, to show bottom one. Maximizing it to full screen... hiding menu and docked 'control panel' (OK this docked menu can float, np - but where is menu?).
    As for maximized letter size document in CS3 vs CS4 it's 131% to 129% on my lcd. Sure - it is not much maybe. But why it must be less? Why to change smthng what was good and aesthetic solution. And why not allow people to use it in classical way? Are Mac users ("to keep the hardcore Mac users happy") better than others? :(

  • In Notes, I do not have a format bar. Under views there is no option to toggle this feature on or off. How then, can I set line spacing in documents? or is there some trick to getting the format bar that they say exists?

    I want to be able to adjust line spacing in the Notes program. The help menu says that there is format bar and that I can choose this spacing. I do not have a format bar. They said that you can toggle this on and off under the View menu. I have not option in my dropdown that gives me an option to show or hide the format bar. Is there a reason why my version does not seem to have this feature?

    Sorry for the wishy washy response but potential YES and possibly NO. Your user data should be intact but the OS may not be able to boot. You have a backup?

    If that still doesn't work then see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
    (caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)
    Note:
    Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults.
    You can rename ''localstore.rdf'' to '''localstore.rdf.sav''' to test if that solves it.
    Then you can restore the customization by copying ''localstore.rdf.sav'' to ''localstore.rdf'' if it didn't work.

  • I accidentaly hit a setting to hide my address bar and all my other buttons like "file" or "tools" and I cant figure out how to get them back. Now i cant even type in an adress to go to another website because there is no place to type it.

    I accidentaly hit a feature that allowed me to hide everything on the top of my browser. Now All i have are the options of "most visited, Getting Started and Latest Headlines." I have no place to type in a website address, no options such as "file" or "tools" or even the back or refresh button. How do I return it to the original settings?

    if you hid the menu bar and the navigation bar simply press the alt button, this will bring back the menu bar and form there you can right click and select which bars you want shown

  • Merging the task bar and the Start Screen area

    Can see the Start Screen more or less works as the Start Screen in Windows 8. However, the coupling features needs to be there. It's a mess.
    And there is still the ambiguity between the Taskbar (= Start) and the Start Screen (= Start). It's the same thing, pinning.
    And they should relate to desktop virtualization.
    May be you could have the icons on the current task bar flow with the start screen area? Work the coloring - and the "ease out" of the menu. So it would seem the task bar is just extending into a bigger area. Then as a user you
    could put the pins used on a daily basis at the very bottom. And the ones used weekly on the Start Screen for instance.
    Additionally,  grouping of pins is needed. That was a nice feature on the Start Screen. And it should be available on the task bar for pins as well - now that the task bar and the Start Screen should be more or less merged as in this
    proposition.

    I agree. I think the Start Menu tiles should function EXACTLY the same as the Start Screen tiles, which includes the arrangement options in groups as well as the ability to multi-select/pin/move/unpin tiles.
    I would also add that I'd like an option to hide the search and task-switcher buttons from the taskbar. Task switcher is redundant considering you can also swipe and keyboard-shortcut that feature. Search is accessible from Start Menu, although
    I understand that once Cortana is enabled via Search button that might change my opinion of its usefulness there.

  • Give us the Format bar instead of the ruler.

    Dear Apple,
    In Pages for iPad, it is very cumbersome to get to formatting features that are easily accessible in the Mac version of Pages through the Format Bar. I don't know about you, but I rarely, if ever, use the ruler for anything (and if I wanted to, there is a separate mode for adjusting margins).
    Therefore Apple, please insert a quick-access Format Bar in place of the ruler. It will add more buttons to the interface yes, but remove just as much frustration. I really want to use the app. Thank you.

    Apple really does not read this forum. Please send your feedback to:
