Acrobat 7, Bookmark pane looses focus

Hi forum,
I've got a very new problem with Acrobat 7.1.4 (which I have been using for "decades" without any problem and planning on using a few years more) on Windows 7 64-bit.
When using Acrobat 7, after some minutes a focus problem develops. Every time when clicking on a bookmark that actually jumps to another page in the document, the bookmark pane loses focus, and focus is given to the document pane. The problem is not present if the bookmark only jumps to another position on the same page.
This is annoying, for example when trying to edit bookmarks.
Probably something very little has changed but I have no idea where I could start to look for the source of the problem.
Thanks already very much for any idea what could be the reason for this focus problem.
Regards David.P

Incorrect.
I have been using Acrobat 7 for years and for thousands of hours without the slightest problem on Windows 7 64-bit on all sorts of different PC's.
Therefore, thanks for any additional and possibly helpful ideas anyone might have about the focus problem.
What also occurs at times is that when I open two windows of the same document side by side inside the parent window of Acrobat 7, and search for text using the basic search box, it happens that the text is searched not in the active window but in the other (the inactive ) window.
This problem seems to be related to the first one since it also is a focus problem.

  • Window looses focus seemingly at random

    This is very frustrating.  Whenever I am working in any application, the active window auto-magically looses focus.  I don't have a lot running by way of background processes and the computer is fairly new and running all latest software.  I can't figure out why.  Hoping someone from the Apple community can help out...

    ... I don't have a lot running by way of background processes
    There are many background processes running on that Mac. The following will determine its peformance without several that are likely to be causing the problem.
    Please determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
    Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
    You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
    Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
    Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
    To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.

  • Reader 9.3.2 crashes when using search & closing bookmarks pane

    I have some PDFs that were created with the Bookmarks pane left open -- i.e. the Bookmarks pane is open every time I open the file. That means the actual page display is too small to read.  I can close the Bookmarks pane and all is OK.
    However, I use the search-index feature a lot -- I have a .idx file indexing a bunch of PDFs, and I search through the PDFs with that index.
    If I search for something, then select a search link, the file opens with Bookmarks pane open.  If I close the Bookmarks pane after having searched for something, *kaboom*.  Reader crashes.
    BTW it also crashes if I resize the window -- so I can't even increase the page size without closing the Bookmarks pane.
    I'm going to see if a co-worker can use her copy of Acrobat Pro to edit the files, close the Bookmarks pane, and re-save the files.  But in the meantime this is a very annoying bug.
    Running on Vista Home Premium SP2 32bit.

    Open Reader, go to Edit-->Preferences-->Documents and select "Restore last view settings when reopening documents".
    So now when you reopen a pdf file whose bookmarks bar you have closed earlier after checking this option, you will see that the bookmark bar will be closed.

  • Is it possible to hide selected bookmarks in bookmark pane?

    We want our application to launch a PDF opened to a certain bookmark. However, that bookmark will be a numeric ID, so we don't want it to be displayed in the bookmark pane. We DO want the bookmark pane to display our standard table of contents.
    So, is it possible to selectively hide the numeric ID bookmarks, while leaving the bookmarks based on text headings visible? The PDF will be generated from an InDesign file (CS6) on Windows 7.
    Thanks for any help and advice.
    RB

    Here's an example to help you think of how to use destinations. In InDesign CS6, I created two hyperlink destinations (Hyperlinks panel > Panel menu > New Hyperlink Destination). I selected headlines on pages 4 and 5: "Seeds of Inspiration" on page 4, and "Professor Wangari Maathai" on page 5, and chose New Hyperlink Destination. Because they were text, Text Anchors were created.
    On Page 3, which is the table of contents you see below, I selected the entry "Seeds of Inspiration......page 4" and turned into a Hyperlink (Panel menu > New Hyperlink). I selected the Text Anchor for page 4. I repeated a hyperlink leading to the Text Anchor on page 5. So you can use hyperlinks to take you to a destination.
    But you could also create a button (you mentioned user presses F1 on a particular screen—that could be a button). So I also created a button at the top of page 3. The button has an action: Go to Destination. I selected the same Text Anchor I used with a link. When the button is selected in Acrobat, its settings are shown on the left side of the screen capture.
    I don't usually use the Destinations panel. I don't need it, but you can see that the destinations are listed in the Destinations panel.

  • Adobe Reader 9 cannot turn off bookmark pane

    Every time I open a PDF file in Acrobat Reader 9 I get the Bookmark Pane open on the left. I have gone to Edit > Preferences > Documents > Check the box for, "Restore last view settings when reopening documents" then went to the view menu > navigation panels > and unchecked Bookmarks. Closed the PDF and reopen a new one and still the Bookmarks Pane is enabled. Is this a bug in Acrobat Reader 9?

    I work for a software company and we are very familiar with the features and functions of Acrobat Reader. In previous version of Acrobat Reader, yes you could disable the Bookmark Pane, unlike version 9.
    For you to say, "This is not a new functionality. Same as the previous versions", is abrupt and insufficient. Can you provide any facts to back up your statements in the form of documentation? I have provided step by step instruction how to reproduce the problem, have you tested it on your end?

  • Bookmark panes are too wide

    My FF5 bookmark panes are too wide. I've found suggestions in the database to edit site titles to shorten them. Having to edit bookmark webpage titles is unacceptable. That means external website naming practices can take over my browser's bookmark display characteristics.
    My Firefox 4. doesn't do wide bookmark panes - I reinstalled Firefox 4. and checked ( and left FF4 installed so I have a useful browser.) Something in FF5 has changed, maybe an unknown preferences file
    Old questions/answers in the help database about FF4 behavior when FF4 was newly released suggest editing a userChrome.css file, but suggested edits are not working for me, and in any case I didn't have to do such with FF4 - it was usable out of the box. Also FF5 doesn't seem to be opening userChrome.css anyway.
    What gives?

    Hi Spencer,
    I now understand that you're describing the bookmark functionality within Acrobat... I'm afraid this forum relates to the online services at Acrobat.com, and I'm not able to answer your question. However, I have two resources for you to try...

  • Sony e reader prs 600 not showing in bookmark pane on my new Mac with Snow Leopard

    I have a brand new sony e reader prs 600 it is supported but I am unable to see it on the bookmark pane in my new Mac with Snow Leopard is it something to do with Snow leopard?  Or why can I not see my sony e reader?  thank you

    According to the Adobe website ADE 1.7.1 is compatible with Mac if you 
    look at system requirements and with the Sony reader if you look at 
    supported devices.  Though it doesn't mention Macs latest O/S.
    and if I download an Adobe digital editions book, can I then move it 
    to Sony's ebook software, or is the format unsupported on the Sony 
    Ereader?

  • Find feature looses focus while typing a phrase, after typing the first space character.

    The find feature now looses focus while I am entering a phrase. After entering the first word of a phrase and the space character, the find box will reposition itself to a possible result on the web page on EVERY CHARACTER and I have to reposition the cursor BACK to the find box to enter every subsequent character in the phrase I am searching for. Is there a way I can turn this useless (for me) *feature* off?
    I used to be able to key the phrase I was looking for, and the box would turn red as I typed if the phrase did not exist. I would really appreciate being able to do this again. It now seems that Firefox 'jumps the gun' to find the phrase before I have completed typing it in.
    Thanks.

    *If you have many extensions then first enable half of the extensions to test which half has the problem.
    *Continue to divide the bad half that still has the issue until you find which one is causing it.

  • CS4 Exporting media Loosing Focus

    Hi
    When exporting media to the media encoder I am finding that I am loosing focus of the rendered file in flash.
    the original size of footage is 1920 X 1080 I have croped this to an area of the footage that I require 720 x 640 and changed the out put size to the same.
    when this is rendered out the image is blury.
    how can I change the settings to be in focus as the original footage is in focus.
    Thanks
    Rodney

    Hi Hunt
    the flash settings that I am using are
    using flash 8 and higher
    I am encoding using the alpha channel due to the footage is keyed out
    the frame rate is 1200
    I have resized to 640 x 720 from 1920 x 1080 and also croped the footage as well to the same size
    Thanks

  • How a custom control is advised it gains or looses focus?

    Hey, at least I have a question to ask, instead of answering them... :-)
    Actually, I already asked it in another thread, in one of my answers: [onMouseClicked Event Is Failing To Fire|http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5391008] but I fear it is lost in a rather lengthly message, so I ask it in its own thread, because I was to bring the attention of knowledgeable people (hello Sun people! :-D).
    The question is simple: In a custom control in JavaFX 1.2, with skin and behavior, how a control is advised when it gains or looses focus?
    The purpose is to let the skin to change the look of the component upon these events, like it is done for standard controls (eg. putting a border around the focused control).
    If the control is clicked, you know (unless it is disabled) that it will have the focus. But I see no way to see the lost of focus, nor when we gain (or loose) it with Tab/Shift+Tab (if it has focusTraversable to true).
    I looked for onFocus() and onBlur() events (or similar), but found nothing. No mixin, nothing related in javafx.scene.input.TextInput and friends, etc.
    I explored the Web but since 1.2 is still new, I found not much information. Only a fragment of source code in [Re: Further location optimizations|http://markmail.org/message/gsevtlkeq45rrdun] where I see scene.getFocusOwner() but this one isn't easily usable because it is package protected (and it is not an event, anyway).
    A possible solution would be to have a timer to inspect the state focused of the nodes, but it is so kludgy I didn't even tried to implement it!
    I hope I just missed the information... If there is no easy/official/working way in 1.2, I hope this will be corrected for next version!

    That's a very good remark, handling of focus highlight shouldn't be done at control (model)'s level. I hesitated to put it in behavior, but it feels more natural in the skin, so I did as you suggested.
    you'll need an interface, and JavaFX does not do thatYou have mixins. But I didn't used them here.
    focused variable never is set to trueHave you included the
    public override var focusTraversable = true;
    line?
    To support multiple skins, my control becomes:
    public class StyledControl extends Control
      // Data related to the control (the model)
      public var count: Integer;
      public override var focusTraversable = true;
      init
        if (skin == null)  // Not defined in instance
          // Define a default styler
          skin = ControlStyler {}
      package function Incr(): Void
        if (count < 9)
          count++;
    }quite bare bones (I intendedly keep the model simple).
    Note I still define a default skin in case user doesn't provide it: they shouldn't care about this detail unless they want to change it.
    I defined an abstract default skin, implementing most variables (particularly the public ones that can be styled) and the focus change:
    public abstract class DefaultControlStyler extends Skin
      //-- Skinable properties
      public var size: Number = 20;
      public var fill: Color = Color.GRAY;
      public var textFill: Color = Color.BLACK;
      public var focusFill: Color = Color.BLUE;
      package var mainPart: Node; // Decorations (id, focus) are kept out of layout
      package var focusHighlight: Node;
      package var idDisplay: Text;
      package var valueDisplay: Text;
      init
        behavior = ControlBehavior { info: bind control.id }
        node = Group
          //-- Behavior: call controller for actions
          onMouseReleased: function (evt: MouseEvent): Void
            (behavior as ControlBehavior).HandleClick(evt);
      postinit
        // Once defined by the sub-class, insert into the node
        insert [ mainPart, idDisplay, valueDisplay ] into (node as Group).content;
      public abstract function ShowIncrement(): Void;
      var hasFocus = bind control.focused on replace
        if (hasFocus)
          ShowFocus();
        else
          HideFocus();
      // Default handling of  focus display, can be overriden if needed
      public function ShowFocus(): Void
        insert focusHighlight into (node as Group).content;
      public function HideFocus(): Void
        delete focusHighlight from (node as Group).content;
      public override function contains(localX: Number, localY: Number): Boolean
        return mainPart.contains(localX, localY);
      public override function intersects(localX: Number, localY: Number,
          localWidth: Number, localHeight: Number): Boolean
        return mainPart.intersects(localX, localY, localWidth, localHeight);
    }and the concrete skins implement the mainPart, idDisplay, valueDisplay, focusHighlight nodes, override ShowIncrement with an animation, override getPrefWidth and getPrefHeight to set to mainPart size and might override ShowFocus or HideFocus (if we want it behind mainPart for example).
    The behavior is:
    public class ControlBehavior extends Behavior
      public var info: String; // Only for debug information...
      // Convenience vars, to avoid casting each time
      var control = bind skin.control as StyledControl;
      var csSkin = bind skin as DefaultControlStyler;
      public override function callActionForEvent(evt: KeyEvent)
        println("{info}{control.count}: KeyEvent: {evt}");
        if (evt.char == '+')
          Incr();
      package function HandleClick(evt: MouseEvent): Void
        control.requestFocus();
        Incr();
      function Incr(): Void
        control.Incr();
        println("{info}: Ouch! -> {control.count}");
        csSkin.ShowIncrement();
    }and knows only the abstract default skin (to apply feedback of user input to skin).
    I use it as follow:
    Stage

        height: 500

  • Open PDF with Bookmarks pane open?

    Is there any way you can set up a PDF so that the document automatically opens with the Bookmarks pane open?
    Thank you,
    A.

    Simply open or close the hierachy of bookmarksto look exactly as you want to see it when the pdf opens and then save the file. When you open it up in reader, it displays the bookmarks as they were at the time of your last save.
    This allows you to decide on a bookmark by boomark level what is open and what remains closed.
    This also allows you to open the 1st and say 4th bookmark to show all 3 tiers, the 2nd bookmark to show no tiers, and the last two bookmarks to show only the first and second tiers. Endless combinations. It isn't all or nothing.
    Hope that is helpful. Terri

  • READER XI - How to open PDF files with bookmark pane minimized (hidden)

    In Reader XI, cannot make the Bookmark Pane minimized (hidden) by default, and it opens for many PDF files that do not need it.  I want to locate a setting or option that allows opening of PDFs without the Bookmark Pane opening.

    "Google" is a search engine (website) and NOT (repeat: NOT) a PDF viewer. It can't and won't open PDFs in any real or imaginable way.
    Firefox added their own proprietary PDF viewer with version 20 - they're on 21 now. I'll be the first to admit "it sucks". You CAN'T fill in PDF forms with it, and you can't email them from the page like with Opera, Safari or Chrome (which use the reader plug-in still).
    Unfortunately, the ONLY option you have now that they've added it and killed the ability for the Reader plug-in to work with Firefox, is Tools>Options>Applications - select Portable Document Format(PDF) and choose "Use Adobe Reader (Default)". What that will do is FORCE Firefox to download the PDF instead of opening it in their terrible PDF viewer in the browser window.
    Or... use one of the other browsers I mentioned. They're all free.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to move from the bookmark pane to the PDF pane?

    I create a lot of bookmarks for easy referencing. Creating a bookmark is easy, with the press of Ctrl+B.  But once you are in the bookmark pane and done with it, there doesn't seem to be a keyboard shortcut to come back to the PDF pane. I always have to resort to the  mouse. If I can perform the entire workflow - create bookmark, edit bookmark name in the bookmark pane and come back to the main PDF pane - without lifing my fingers off the keyboard, it will really save a lot of time.
    Is there a keyboard shortcut to move from the bookmark pane to the PDF pane?

    I was not able to do it with the keyboard... You can make a feature request here:

  • Firefox hangs when searching in the bookmarks pane

    Since I installed the latest Firefox update today, whenever I make the Bookmarks pane visible and type in a tag or two then press return, the browser hangs and the process has to be ended. Is this a problem with today's update?

    Same problem on both of my Mac's. Rolled back to 3.6.9 and it's all good. Also tried the beta and had the same problem. Sure looks like an issue with 3.6.11

  • The older version would let me drag the icon bookmark to the tool bar but now I have to make a whole new toolbar just to add the one bookmark i loose too much page room this way. Is there a way to do it like the old version?

    the older version would let me drag the icon bookmark to the tool bar but now I have to make a whole new toolbar just to add the one bookmark i loose too much page room this way. Is there a way to do it like the old version?

    Removing the favicons, changing the titles to 1-4 characters without spaces, and putting some or most into folders still readily accessible from the bookmarks toolbar
    would help a lot. Also changing the size of the bookmarks toolbar text and color with a Style to differentiate between folders and bookmark/bookmarklets would help, see
