3 fingers scroll down/up functions as a highlighter

Hello -
Did anyone has this. When I'm on an online and use three fingers to scroll it functions as a highlighter of text.  Also moves pictures (makes a copy with the original on a website) on the web browser.  I'm not sure if this is a trackpad issue? Please advise.

It is normal.
I can drag with three fingers and highlight with three fingers.

    Two fingers up and down is the vertical scroll, three fingers sideways is 'back'.

  • Scroll down/up functionality in a jMenu?

    What i mean is a jMenu similar to that of internet explorer's
    Favorites menu. When you have a ton of favorites you get a little arrow
    pointing down or up depending on where you are in the menu. Is it possible to implement something similar in java with a jmenu? if so how?
    Ps thanks to all who helped with my previous JMenu question. I got it figured out :)

  • I loaded OS X Lion , changed 2 finger scrolling, i want to revert scrolling back to scrolling down is movement towards me, not moving my 2 fingers away from me, I did this by accident , how do i change this 2 finger scroll movement back to original

    I loaded OS X Lion ,  I changed the 2 finger scrolling once OS X Lion was loaded to the movement of moving your 2 fingers towards the screen to move screen down  , i want to revert the moving of my screen moving down by scrolling down as the movement towards me , as original when I first received my MAC, not moving my 2 fingers towards the screen , I did this by accident , how do i change this 2 finger scroll movement back to original
    in other words - scroll towards me moves screen down
    scroll away from me or towards screen moves screen up. this is what I want
    now its the opposite
    scroll towards me screen screen moves up
    scroll towards screen makes screen gone down
    how do I fix this mistake i did when I loaded OS X Lion, it asked me to move my 2 fingers on mouse pad, I just moved it towards the screen not knowing this was going to change the scrolling to the opposite of how it scrolled when I first got my MAC, please help I prefer the original 2 finger scroll being towards me is screen moving down, HELP

  • Functionality to scroll down.

    Hi all,
    I have a requirement where in a tcode calls SM30 to maintain the Ztable. when the new entries button is clicked or if on the position the key value is added a custom screen is called which will display only the required field of the table through a new entry can be created or the changes can be updated into the table.
    I am able to achieve this but when we scroll down then automatcially the custom screen is called.
    how can i get the normal functionality of the ok-code where when we scroll down it behave noramlly without calling the next screen.
    TIA

    for each scroll PBO is executed. so you should call your cutom screen from PAI not from PBO

  • 3 fingers scroll up/down in Safari, on snow leopard

    Hello,
    Anyone knows how to activate in Safari the 3 fingers scroll up/down available in Firefox? I am using Snow Leopard.

    HI,
    *"I understand that this has to do with FlashPlayer plugin for Safari (btw, mine is the latest 10.0.32). Why wasn't this happening in 10.5? Is it because Safari is running in 64-bit mode? "*
    Run Safari in 32-bit mode.
    Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click Get Info.
    In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle where you see: General
    Select: Open in 32-bit mode and close the Get Info window and restart your Mac.
    Sometimes uninstalling and reinstalling a *fresh copy* of the Flash player plugin helps.

    As with any software installation, repair disk permissions...
    Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • How to make a dynamic textbox scroll down/up for devices like iPhone/Android/iPad etc?

    Problem: When doing anAPP to test it out in my smartphone devices. I tested it on my computer and it works fine. But in devices, im not able to scroll the textbox down/up because my devices dont have a scroll wheel to scroll up/down.
    Assuming that im looking for something like this:
    When I use my fingers to touch on the textbox and slide it upwards, the textbox will scroll down..
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi, thanks for your reply.
    By using touchevents, how do I...
    1) know that if my fingers is sliding up or down?
    2) scroll the textbox up/down?
    import flash.events.TouchEvent;
    Multitouch.inputMode = MultitouchInputMode.TOUCH_POINT;
    this.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_BEGIN, touchBeginHandler);
    this.addEventListener(TouchEvent.TOUCH_END, touchEndHandler);

  • A problem with my mail in 10.8, crashes on scrolling down a PDF doc

    Hey guys,
    I've spent 2 1/2 hours on the phone today attempting to resolve this issue, fingers crossed an answer may be out there.
    When I attached a PDF doc to an email, it embeds in the message, no dramas does take a little while to load it on, then when I scroll down the email to make sure it's the correct doc, the spinning curser of death shows and then 3-4 seconds later the email scrolls down but slowly loads sections of the PDF.  At times the mail app crashes when it does this.
    It doesn't matter about the file size or amount of pages (one page 87kb, or 10mb 6 pages) it always 'skips' or 'freezes' even on sent items.
    I have:
    unistalled Adobe, through my PDF's are all controlled by Preview
    rebooted in safe mode etc and run by another user
    done the whole CNTRL, OPT, SHIFT, P, R thing
    hold down P and PWR and waited for 2 beeps
    plus everything else
    New to MacBook etc and I'm about to throw it as I can't opperate like this and costs me deals!
    Any help, hints etc would be appreciated.

    Hi - I'd guess that the adapter you bought is the problem ...do you have another to try? Also, having a guitar cable plugged into an 1/8in. adapter into your Macbook isn't the greatest situation as it really doesn't take a lot of cable movement for there to be a LOT of pressure on that small jack - which could easily screw up the insides. If you do try another adapter I'd suggest one with a longish/small cable attached so that you can plug your guitar in and not have any force on the jack at all.
    I too can get a signal this way (I have active pickups), and when I switch to the Macbook's speakers as the output the signal is delayed quite a bit. I use (and really recommend) the Griffin iMic for any real work with Garageband or the laptop in general - the USB signal is better, the cable doesn't pose a problem (as mentioned above) and if you're looking to record other sounds it can handle both line and mic levels ...and of course the price is great. The next real step up from this is a firewire interface of some type.

  • Many of my photos appear briefly as I scroll down the page then disappear leaving a box outlined with a broken-line.  The menu bar says that I have 300 pictures hidden, but I am unable to get them unhidden.

    I am experiencing difficulty with iPhoto '11.  Some of more recent photos can not be accessed.  As I scroll down the page of photos, the most recent ones appear briefly, then disappear to be replaced with a box outlined by a broken-line.  The menu bar says that I have 317 photos hidden.  Hiding photos is not something that I normally do, can't imagine why these are hidden.  Anyway, when I try to unhide the photos, I can view them as an event, but if I click on a single photo, or try to move it into an album, the photo does not display.  Instead I get a dark exclamation point within a triangle.  Another problem with these same photos is on the event page there is no key photo for these events only a dark screen.  I can't find an answer to my problem.  Has anyone experienced this?  What is the problem and how can I correct it?  

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • How to read the whole name of a music title while scrolling down a list of titles? With the new iOs7 Music App there is no more black box showing the entire name!

    How to read the whole name of a music title while scrolling down a list of titles? The old software-app had the function to click for a longer time on a titles beginning letters until a black box revealed the entire name. I miss this function especially for my classical music, because lots of pieces start with similar words. E.g.:
    "Beethoven: Variations On "Ein Mädchen Oder Weibchen", Op. 66 - Var. 1"
    "Beethoven: Variations On "Ein Mädchen Oder Weibchen", Op. 66 - Var. 2"
    Scrolling in a list of title, I can't distinguish the titles, because just the first words are shown followed by: "...".
    That's horrible!

    Or you could include a width to your body style:
    body {
    background-image: url(Logo/sky1.jpg);
    background-position: center center;
    background-attachment: fixed;
    width: 75%;}
    It might work or not depending on your other color scheme.

  • When I try to access a picture from i photo the picture will come up and then quickly the screen goes black and there is a white exclamation mark.  Also when using faces and scrolling down pictures some disappear very quickly after a brief look.

    When using i photo and trying to pull up individual photos - the photo will appear and quickly disappear only to be replaced by a black screen with a white explanation mark.  This happens with all of my photos.  Has anyone had this problem and if so what can be done to fix it.  I did not select this graphic to be added to my i photo pictures - the blace sign with the white explanation mark.  Also, when scrolling down photos in faces some of my pictures disappear after a quick view. 
    Thanks for any help you can provide.  It seems like something has gotten into my i photo picture account?

  • Mavericks Mail-cannot scroll down to select a group by holding mouse button.

    I do not like the new Mavericks mail. When I attempt to hold the left mouse button and scroll down to select a group, the program automatically locks onto the first message I touch and moves it. Prior to Mavericks scrolling was an easy process. This new mail is very clumsy and I have to select one message, then hold shift key, then selelct the last message in the group. ....Clumsy and slow.
    Does anyone know a workaround for this? The tutorials don't address it and the "What's new in Mail?" file doesn't either.  If there is not a workaround, is there a way to disable the Mavericks configuration in Mail and go back to regular mail? I'd appreciate any tips or help on  this.

    Okay, I tried deleting the Finder preferences first (along with a handful of other preference files that I knew were no longer needed), and it seemed to help--at first. But eventually, all the same problems started happening again, so I concluded that it was necessary to just start with a fresh (empty) preferences folder. As you know, this is a pain to deal with, but I limited my pain by moving all the old preferences files into a folder on the Desktop rather than simply deleting them. That way, I could just put back any missing preferences that were too hard to recreate. Restoring all of my preferences with new (uncorrupted) prefs files will be an ongoing process, but the good news is that this effort (so far) seems to have solved the problem. Mail is responding to all my clicks, even when I switch between different apps and different spaces.  :-)
    Now that things are working correctly, I notice that when I switch between apps and/or spaces, the selected app (or the frontmost app in the new space) will show an active state for its window, whereas before, the selected app didn't update to show that it was active--it kept the inactive state for its window. I'm no expert, but it seems to me that this might have something to do with the windowserver process, so it might make sense for the next person who stumbles on this thread to start by deleting any preferences files that begin with com.apple.windowserver. Just a hunch, but it's worth starting there before you do a complete flush of all your preferences.
    Thanks again for the help--hopefully this workaround will be persistent. Fingers crossed!

  • Table Scroll down using a button

    Hi,
    Can some expert Webdynpro consultant try out this weird requirement and give me the solution. ( Its for an app to be used on Mobile which is why asking for it. Its working fine on computers/Laptops)
    Create a table and bind it with a child node and fill it with data so that it has many rows.. Now for scrolloing down, instead of using the scroll down button provided by the table element, create a new button which will perform the same functionality of scrolling down.
    I have found the class which has the method which perform this functionality but am not able to use it properly.
    The class is CL_WDR_P13N_DT and the method is AGGR_MOVE_DOWN.
    I have tried MOVE_ELEMENT and all move related methods of if_wd_context_node, these methods just change the index position, they dont move the table contents down. So pls dont waste your time on that.
    I have used this code:
    DATA: lo_nd_resb_tab TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
              vn type ref to CL_WDR_P13N_DT.
    lo_nd_resb_tab = wd_context->get_child_node( name = 'EKKO_TAB' ).
    create object vn.
    CALL METHOD VN>AGGR_MOVE_DOWN
    EXPORTING
    VISIBLE_NODE = lo_nd_resb_tab
    Thanks & Regards
