Accessibility Suggestion for Thumnails - Grow on Mouse Over

I work on features, and have migrated to the FCP as a home system recently, which means less screen space for organizing the mammoth bins that we require on our projects.
One thing I would love to see is some kind of better way to view the thumbnails of each clip in my bin. I was thinking, wouldn't it be great if each thumbnail grew temporarily as you moved your mouse over it, the way the icons do in the Dock. Perhaps even other info panes in the bin could grow to, such as comments or clip name.
It would help our eyes a LOT!

When I go to a drop down menu, for example bookmarks, I mouse over the text and it turns color with a dark bar; can this be fixed?

I am running Firefox 5 currently. Ever since the last update to Firefox 4 and currently with firefox 5 I have had this issue. The dropdown menu is normal when it first drops down. When i move my cursor over the text in the menu it changes to a dark blue bar and remains that way until I close the dropdown, it resets until i dropdown and mouseover again. When I make a selection in the menu it works fine.
I have also noticed that the buttons in the browser and in certain websites have a "sweetspot" you have to hit for the button to function. In past versions if you clicked anywhere on the graphical button it would function.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
In Firefox 4 [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode Safe mode] disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
* Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

Certain add ons/plug ins not loading. For example, in eBay, mouse over certain items and only blank dialog box pops up, no text within box. What could be causing this?

Appears to be flash or Acrobat issue???

Probably caused by the Google Toolbar extension. Disable it to verify it as the cause.

How can I add popup help messages when I mouse over a button

Hi there,
I haev Acrobat x 10 pro.
I'm new to acrobat and would like to set up a friendly form for people to fill in online. I'd like them to have some interactive help so that for example when they mouse over or click a button, some help text appears. I've played around with adding a text field that is hidden and then adding action items to a button to show it. This works, but my text field is shaded like a normal text field and I'd like it to look different.
Is there a better way to to this popup effect or is there a way t omake the popup look like a popup and not a text field?
All help gratefully received,
Thanks in advance.

I'mnot sure what you mean by shading exactly, but you can set up a text field so that it doesn't have an inset border. An alternative is to use a button to display the text. Buttons are more flexible since you can set a button icon to be anything that can appear on a PDF page (text, images, vector graphics). For a sample, see: https://acrobat.com/#d=aP-2xL45pM57xVkT6d6fSg
Also, if you use a text field, set it's default value to the text you want to display so that the field won't get blanked if the form is reset. You don't have to worry about this when using buttons.

Mouse-over menu problem in iWeb, 2nd try

This is a 2nd attempt to ask for help: I want post one more time 'cause I realized – due to the useful feedback of one member of this forum (Cyclosaurus) - I can now explain my mouse-over problem a lot better:
I’ve got mouse-over menus that mess up in this weird way - but only when the browser is refreshed. And then they work fine again when browser is refreshed yet again. (?!) And it only happens in iWeb.
I worked with a programmer who wrote html code for me, creating a mouse-over menu system for my (iweb-generated) site: www.petersolon.com As a stand-alone thing (as stand-alone code) the menu system works great-there's nothing wrong with it-as you can see:
www.petersolon.com/default.html
But when the code is introduced into iWeb and uploaded, this weird refresh problem occurs. (I didn't do a very good job of describing the problem in my recent post: “MOUSE-OVER MENUS….etc”)
Anyway, the mouse-over system starts out working fine but then, after refreshing the page (the problem occurs more freq. on some pages vs others), the string of menus jump to a spot they shouldn’t move to. They do this:
http://www.petersolon.com/MenuProblem.html
And it only happens in iWeb.
The whole navigation system then gets totally messed up. I can’t tell you how many hours we spent fiddling with the code, trying to pinpoint the problem.
What I know for sure is, the problem is related to:
1. browser refresh
2. iWeb generated code (mixing with "outside code")
3. position of my primary navigation menus vis-a-vis a graphic they sit on top of.
Any help would really be appreciated, thank you much Peter

Mouse over solution for jdk1.0

hi all,
I am interested in making the equivalent of a mouse over solution for a java applet.
Basically I'll have approximately 100 Rectangle objects representing images on the applet.
When the person moves the mouse over these 100 rectangle objects, i'll use contains() method to determine if the mouse is over the object in question.
If true, the image will be changed to represent the mouse over event .
I thought for a msecond about looping through all the rectangle objects each time the mouse moves. but that seemed impractical since the mouse can move pretty quickly.
It seemed to me the best option was to extend the Rectangle object and put an event listener on it . so that the Rectangle object can be triggered at the same time or individually as needed in response to the mousemove event .
Does anyone have any thoughts about that ?
does anyone know how I would possible implement something like that for java 1.0
thanks
stev

it seems like I have to extend Component some how to get access to enableEvents method.
Here is my class
class ListeningRectangle extends Rectangle{
     public ListeningRectangle(int w, int x, int y, int z, Component c){
          super(w,x,y,z);
          c.enableEvents(AWTEvent.MOUSE_MOTION_EVENT_MASK);
     public void mouseMoved (MouseEvent me) {
     System.out.println("event has been received by rectangle");
I am using this class in conjunction with a java applet (targetted to 1.0-1.1 ).
I'm passing a reference of the applet in to create this ListeningRectangle like this
new ListeningRectangle(a,b,c,d,this);
my objective is to have about 100 different rectangle areas defined on the java applet.
and when the person moves the moves the mouse of the applet rapidly, only the appropriate ListeningRectangle object would respond.
any ideas on how to get this done ? ?

Suggestions for NAS for home network and remote access to clients

I have a photo studio in my home and will need to get the digital files to my clients roughly once a week. i am currently using dropbox, but was thinking of purchasing a NAS that I could use for this purpose,as well as for my home network needs, mainly itunes and photos of the kid...
any suggestions for a mac friendly NAS , and how it can be accesed by my client over the internet?
can a NAS be accessed like a FTP site, using fetch or another FTP client?
thank for any help.

Hi Thomas,
I have had similar considerations and finally chose QNAP 439 Pro II over the many other ones out there (LinkSys, NetGear, Bufallo, etc.). Without going into technical details, the main reason for my choice were easy-of-use, functionalities and scalability:
http://www.qnap.com/prodetail_feature.asp?pid=148
It's not the cheapest solution out there, but works great with the Mac, even acts as storage solution for TimeMachine (with latest firm ware). And implementing client access is easy.
Hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Mark

Cannot display the screen of the macbook on TV. OS is Lion 10.7.2. Connection to the TV is over HDMI cable. TV shows only the backgroud picture of Lion. Do you have any suggestions for help ?

Cannot display the screen of my macbook on TV. OS is Lion 10.7.2. The Macbook is connected to the TV is over HDMI cable. TV shows only the backgroud picture of the Lion OS and reacts even to mission control. Do you have any suggestions for help ?

You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode. In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen. You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
Or if you want to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box.

Mouse over values not displaying properly for the Combination Chart

Hi All,
A Combination Chart has the following details:
Primary Y Axis has Revenue in mn $.
Secondary Y Axis has %.
When the mouse over is being done, 4% is being displayed as .04
It should be displayed 4% & not as .04
The Mouse over values has the Number format as u201CNumericu201D.
Sometimes, it works in u201CGeneralu201D format. (%)
However, there is no control on the no of decimal places displayed for the value of Revenue (Primary Y Axis value).
Whereas, in Numeric format, decimal places can be adjusted.
Secondary vertical(value) Axis Labels has "Percent" as the Number format.
Please suggest a solution.
Thanks,
Raghu Ram

Hello.
Look I have an idea, I donu2019t know if you already try it.
Please give the format that you want percentage, decimals etc...
In the Excel where the charts are being directed
Then redirect de chart to the same cells, these with the porpoise of refreshing
Now each serie have the format.
Please let me now what happen with these

How to change mouse-over label for a mx:CandleStickChart?

I have an <mx:CandleStickChart .../> graph and want to change the default
labels on the mouse-over window. For example by default, the mouse-over window displays:
line1: some label
line2: open: #1
line3: close: #2
line4: high: #3
line5: low: #4
I want to change the words "open", "close", "high", "low" to something else. I optionally want to not show the "close" line.
Do you have any suggestions on how to do this? If you do, please provide a short example.
Thanks for taking the time to help.

Hi
First change the name from kPlusIconPNGIconRsrcID to kPlusIconPNGIconIRsrcID
so "I" will indicate that your icon is inactive
Create another resource id like:
#define kPlusIconPNGIconIRsrcID 15
#define kPlusIconPNGIconARsrcID 15
Define paths to the icons
resource PNGA(kPlusIconPNGIconIRsrcID) "../res/icons/PLUS_ICO_23_I.png" // Inactive icon
resource PNGR(kPlusIconPNGIconARsrcID) "../res/icons/PLUS_ICO_23_A.png" // Active icon

The list of extensions for InDesign now have a yellow triangle warning symbol in front of a good many of the extensions and when moused over i get one of two messages:
"Extensions may not function properly because it does not meet the dependency condition."
OR
Extension Status is not consistent with extension set configuration."
The reason I opened the Extension Manager in the first place was to check to see if I had installed a third party extension. And I was presented with these warning symbols. I haven't added anything, I haven't done anything that would cause this.
Does anyone know how to fix this???
I am running OSX 10.9.5; Indesign CS6 version 8.0.2 And Adobe Extension Manager version 6.0.8.28.
Thanks in advance!
Nina

Many InDesign pre-installed extensions (Those extensions you have immediately after InDesign installation) define dependency rules in their mxi files. Dependency means that one extension works well only if one or more other extensions are installed and enabled. If this condition is not met, the yellow triangle warning will be shown.
You can select an extension with warning, click "Advanced" tag page in the lower right panel. You will see "This extension has dependency on: <extension name> ...". Check whether every extensions listed here are available and enabled. If not, enable them. Repeat these steps for all the extensions which have warning.

Mouse Over Format Control for Series

I have a combination chart and would like to display the column portion with no digits after the decimal. I would like to display the line portion with 1 digit after the decimal.
Will Xcelsius allow individual formatting of series or only global formatting for a Mouse Over?

If you want to do individual formatting of Mouse Over effect with combination charts, you should select the format in Excel and choose Mouse-Over format "General" in Xcelsius.
Keep in mind, to select the "General" format in Xcelsius first, then format your Excel-Data and rebind the chart-component after formatting in Excel.
