Is there a way to make customisable buttons?

I think it's called a macro. Is there a way to make a button to put on your tool bar that can perform a series of actions. For instance, it would be nice to have a button that can bookmark a site and automaticly sort it into a specific folder. Or a button that can toggle the "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately".
Thanks.

In DVD-Video, buttons cannot overlap, and their hit area will always be a rectangle...even if the contents of the button are rotated, it will result only in the rectangle becoming larger, to fit the rotated graphics.
Regarding button thumbnail layers, they show similar behavior - they will always render out as a rectangle.
If you don't use thumbnail layers (try a replacement layer), you should be able to rotate the button without the replacement layer getting re-adjusted. But note replacement layers don't accept video. If you want video in the buttons, you'll have to do all the work in After Effects.
But remember - your buttons cannot overlap without introducing button highlighting problems.
A better solution is to not make these buttons at all, but a regular menu layer or video background layer. And then you can create custom highlight layers in Photoshop, again making sure your buttons don't overlap. This would be a lot of work.

  • Is there a way to make rotated Buttons and ones that overlap??

    currently, im working on a dvd menu, and i want it to look like a stack of Polaroids,
    so i made the menu in photoshop with all the codes, like (+)(%) ect.
    though now i want the buttons to be overlapping and all tilted to a random direction,
    like a real stack of polaroids, i've tried making a "straight" menu and then rotating the buttons, but it didn't work.
    is there a way that you can rotate buttons and have the thumbnail footage also be rotated?
    and is it possible to have buttons that overlap at some point?
    (note that i want the Animated thumbnails)
    here's a random example picture i found online
    though i know it might be possible by making them all by manually in AfterEffects,
    by using the original footage with lots of masks to make thumbnail movies,
    but im not looking for such a tedious job, also im not very skilled in AfterEffects

  • Is there any way to make toolbar buttons in Firefox 8 look as they did in Firefox 7, with each toolbar button having a "frame" around the icon and text?

    Just like to know if this is something I can adjust in about:config or if this UI setting is gone for good.

    You used the data.  Verizon can not see what it was sued for.  However your phone can see whats apps used the data.  go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle.  line the dates up with your cycle.  then there will be a bar graph below that   extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right.  after those are extended below that will be a list of apps,  there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

  • When sending a PDF form by email, is there a way to make a button into a drop-down to select multiple email addresses?

    Basically, I'm wanting to have multiple recipients set up within a button, so I can pick and choose who and when I send the form to. I can only seem to get it to either send to only one email address, or to send to multiple email addresses all at one time, without the option to select a recipient upon pressing the button.
    If anyone could help, I'd be really grateful.
    Many thanks in advance.
    James

    First of all, a drop-down menu doesn't allow for multiple item selection. You'll need a list-box field for that.
    Once you have that set up you can use the value(s) selected in this field as the recipients of the email.

  • Is there a way to create a button to make an entire page visible or hidden in an Acrobat XI form?

    Is there a way to create a button to make an entire page visible or hidden in an Acrobat XI form?

    Note that Reader (11 or otherwise) cannot show/hide pages that are templates. Reader 11 can spawn new pages from templates and delete any spawned pages, however. It also supports spawning a template by overlaying it on an existing page.
    The UI in Acrobat 11 for making a page a template and setting its visibility is found under: Tools > Document Processing > Page Templates
    Here are some links to the JavaScript documentation: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.1216.html

    Note that some of this information is outdated with respect to Reader 11.

  • Is there a way to make state transitions/animations of a fl.control states - button for example ?

    Is there a way to make state transitions/animations of a fl.control states - button for example ?
    All I can do now is change the skin design and that's it, I can't animate between states like I can with Flash Builder skins. So is there a way to do that, any technique or I have to create a button component from scratch?
    Thanks!

    simplebuttons have upState etc properties you can use to assign movieclips to the 3 states.  you can use the currentFrame property of movieclps to (appear to) smoothly transition from one state to another.

  • Is there a way to make polygone shapes/buttons?

    Greetz peepz,
    Is there a way to make polygone shapes and/or buttons? I would like to make more accurate dropshadows and imagemap-like buttons.

    Aaah, so it's part of the plan to make it posible in the future? To make dropshadows in PNG is ok, but when you want to use the dropshadow option on a transparent PNG it will put a dropshadow on the outer boarders of the imagesquare, that's kind of annoying. I want to animate a rotation of a polygone shape, but I'll skip the dropshadow for now then.

  • Is there a way to make the colour picker in the toolbar bigger?

    Hi,
    Is there a way to make the colour picker in the toolbar bigger?
    I've been using Illustrator for some time now and find this part of the software to be annoying as I frequently mis-click this tiny area and the switching between foreground and background colour is easily mismanaged and you end up changing the colour of the one you didn't intend and then have to make two clicks to remedy that.
    Do any other users find this to be a badly designed part of the software?
    Also, while I'm here I suggest that when in the colour creation dialogue the 'preview' tick can somehow be switched to on as default.
    I can understand that there are situations where it might be better not to see your colour change in the document in real time, but to have to click this (again very small) tick box again and again feels like bad design.
    ^ both the above are frequent tasks for many users
    Interested to hear if there's any work arounds to fix this.

    Thanks for the tip,
    I do use x and shift x and also / to make a no stroke or no fill. But / is a long way across the keyboard. I guess I could reassign that function to a key that's nearer x.
    I think the real annoying bit is not only the small size of the two overlapping squares, but the fact that they change size depending on which one is selected. So the button that is not selected is encroached by the one that is selected (and overlaps it). This to me seems counter to interface design - ie, make the switch button smaller. Worse still is the no fill / no stroke button; insanely tiny.
    I would gladly redesign this corner of Illustrator for Adobe, and I'm sure quite a few other people would too!

  • Is there a way to create a button for the tool bar that will View a page in "No Style'?

  • Is there a way to make the Form Wizard group things in the order I want it to?

    I am creating a multi-page checklist. Each question has a radio button with the possible answers of yes, no or n/a. When I run the Form Wizard, it detects the boxes I created, in Word using the Developer, but it puts all the yes's in a group, all the no's in a group and leaves the n/a's out. Is there a way to make it so when the Form Wizard creates the radio buttons, it puts a yes, no and n/a in one group? I don't want to have to create a sepearte group for each question. These checklists are long and there are hundreds of questions.

    The auto field detection feature is designed to look for Yes/No text labels next to each radio button group -- not specifically n/a. Do you have a group label to the left or above each group? This is how each group is determined -- if it's not there they'll default to check boxes. For more detail on how the auto field detection feature works, check out the tutorial Designing Forms for auto field detection. Also, there were a few improvements in the 9.2 release, so make sure you're using this point release or later.

  • Is there a way to make the message+ app use wifi as default if wifi is available available?

    I often am on WiFi with very little service and message+ tries to send it over service and if fails. I then have to turn on airplane mode and wifi to get it to send over the WiFi network. Is there a way to make this just happen automatically?

    I can see that becoming pretty annoying, Garrett611. We do try extremely hard to make sure you get a reliable signal in as many places as possible. Since there are places where Wi-Fi is available but there's factors beyond our control that decrease cellular service, Wi-Fi is a great alternative! If you go into Verizon Messages > Menu > Settings > there is an option to Sync Over Wi-Fi only when connected to Wi-Fi.

  • Is there a way to make the multitrack behave as the edit window?

    I have been using the 30 day trial and am on my last day. I find Audition great except for 2 things(both of which I probably just don't know how to use).
    1.Is there a way to make a track shrink or enlarge with the mouse scroll as in edit. I find it really annoying when all it does in the multitrack is scroll up and down between the tracks.
    2.I can't seem to click on a track in the multi track and get it to play from there. I have to drag the play marker to that point.
    I'm sure these problems can be rectified and it's just because I haven't read the full spec.
    Many Thanks

    >I find Audition great
    Yes it is!
    >1.Is there a way to make a track shrink or enlarge with the mouse scroll as in edit. I find it really annoying when all it does in the multitrack is scroll up and down between the tracks.
    You are scrolling in the window you need to place your mouse over the vertical bar on the far right of the screen and then scroll
    >2.I can't seem to click on a track in the multi track and get it to play from there. I have to drag the play marker to that point
    Right mouse click on transport control (play button) and select play from cursor to end of file.

  • Is there a way to make the Inner Shadow to only render over the fill, and not stroke of a rectangle?

    To be precise, I want to recreate this button in Fireworks (original here):
    I created a rectangle with the stroke set to the dark orange color, and the fill to the light yellow color. Then I wanted to add a white inner shadow with 50% opacity to make the effect that's visible in the inner top, left, and right edges. However the shadow is also affecting the stroke. Is there a way to make it only affect the fill?
    Thanks.

    Actually, you can control the stacking order of filter effects. So you could apply the Inner Shadow effect to the object without the stroke, and then add the Stroke via the Photoshop Live Effects (at the bottom of the Filters menu).
    Both this and the Gradient Fill options would allow you to save the appearance as a Style, where it could then be applied to other buttons or objects.

  • In LabVIEW6i, is there a way to make particular elements of an array invisible while the others stay visible (without losing any element's info.)?

    I have an array of clusters. Each cluster pertains to a certain oscilloscope I am controlling. There is another control which specifies which oscilloscopes I have "on".
    If a particular oscilloscope is "on" I want its cluster to be VISIBLE in the array. If a particular oscilloscope is "off" I want its cluster to be INVISIBLE in the array.
    How can I implement this in my program without losing ANY of the info. in my array?

    I suggest to use two arrays; one for user interface holding the ON clusters,
    and one for internal use holding all clusters. The diagram periodically
    updates the internal array with user interface array data.
    By INVISIBLE do you mean "skipped from the array" or displayed as an empty
    placeholder? To hide an OFF cluster you could put in the cluster a flat
    button boolean that is small and transparent when ON and large enough to
    cover the whole cluster area (and other controls) when OFF.

  • Is there a way to make Firefox version 20 developer toolbar behave in the same fashion as version 19.

    Version 20 places all of developer toolbar components together which is kinda of a killer. Before you could just have the style viewer open on the side with only having a small toolbar at the bottom. Or work with HTML by pressing a single button.
    Is there a way to make it behave like it use to without me going back a version. Or a way to just open the style viewer on the side without anything else.
    thank you

    The new version is hopeless - which is a pity because this feature is just about the only reason I stick with FireFox as a developer. Previously I could hit Ctrl-shift-I to bring up the nice site panel, which often with wide-screen monitors is dead-space. The HTML panel wasn't shown by default and I seldomly needed it. I could hit ESC to get rid of it.
    NOW - the ESC key does nothing so I have to move my hand back to my mouse and click on the 'x' button to get rid of the panel. I can't get rid of the HTML part and the pane takes up the whole of the lower part of my screen which is NOT dead space.
    In the truncated CSS panel at the bottom of the page I can only see the first couple of styles - often I want to see further down the list so I just about always have to scroll.
    NO: opening in a separate window is NOT a solution!
    If you're going to change the layout without first doing some research on how people use a tool then please make sure you have the option in the first few releases to go back to the old layout - just in case, on the off chance, what you're doing is really really silly!
