Adding 'Post-it' like feature to a page

Hi,
I was wondering how nice it would be to add a 'post-it' like feature to a page. The user could add comments in a free text and could save it to a given APEX page and next time he/she would navigate to this page, I could display it.
I wondr if any body has done something like this? TIA

I had done something similar capturing data for each page from end user(it was actually a feedback functionailty driven into the application itself to choose page region or/and items and associated user comments for that)
You have a link in the navigation bar (or some general position in ur app page) that opens a jQuery dialog_ (I had implemented it using a modal plugin in apex 3.2). Write some JS code that can show the entry form for user as a modal window( check if *$.dialog()* is enough for you ),then set the ajax global variables(g_x01,g_X02..) for page id and the text field( _$v('p_flow_step_id')_ and _$('#Comment_field').val()_ ) and call an Ondemand process. Add the JS code required to the page template or as a JS file loaded in every page. The . The Ondemand process can save the data to a table.
For showing the 'post-it' note, start out by having a region in page zero that fetches the content for the displayed page( PLSQL region ). Then style it using JS(onload) and/or CSS so that it is set at a fixed position with a large z-index,float it, use some animation effects, shadowing etc. A div with a background image(or mayb one each for title,a repeat-y styled one for body and another one for the footer) would be good starting point for the post-it look. Once you are comfortable with the styling and positioning, add the code to the template or load in a JS file so that it runs for every page.
Hope it helps,Good Luck.

  • Feature suggestion: add page flipping transition, text highlighting, notes, and translation

    I'm using Adobe Reader on Android.
    Similar to Google Play Books app, I'd like to suggest the following features:
    1. Page flipping effect or transition.
    2. Selection or highlighting of text in different colors
    3. Notes taking support
    4. Translation of selected text Ina similar fashion to Play Books app.
    5. Syncing of reading across devices.

    Hi,
    Thanks for writing to us.
    1. We have this added this request to our feature backlog. We might incorporate it in one of our future releases.
    2. You can change the color of the highlight added to a document. Once you highlight some text, tap on it to bring a context menu with options as Color, Opacity and Clear. Select 'Color' and choose the highlight color. Please note that any new highlight made after this will appear in this color as well.
    3. You can add notes to a document. From the top toolbar, select the commenting icon. The commenting toolbar will appear. The first icon from the left on this toolbar is the Sticky Note icon. You can enter text in this note and can edit it later as well.
    4. We have added this request to our future backlog as well.
    5. What exactly do you mean by 'Syncing of reading' across devices? Do you want the application to remember the last viewed page number? Please note that this functionality is provided for all documents in Acrobat.com. If you want to access this functionality, please make an Acrobat.com account, upload the file you want to read. The file will be visible across devices and the last viewed page will be remembered.
    Hope this helps. Please write back in case of any queries.
    Thanks.

  • I have created two related books in Lightroom 5 (Volumes 1 and 2) but my balance of page numbers is off. So I'd like to take some pages out of one book (complete with images) and paste them into the other. Is this possible?

    I have created two related Blurb books in Lightroom 5 (Volumes 1 and 2) but my balance of page numbers is off. So I'd like to take some pages out of one book (complete with images) and paste them into the other. Is this possible?

    Can you zip up a few of your GoPro images, upload them to dropbox.com and post a share link, here, so others can experiment with them, or do you mean this issue is global to all camera models?

  • How to work left -right like a booklet in pages!? basics right....?

    how do i work left to right like a brochure! I'm getting soon annoyed because this is pure basics am i blind or is this impossible in this program?

    It is called Facing Pages and as AllergyDoc says is just one of over 100 features missing from Pages 5.
    Use Pages '09 and tell Apple what you think of this in the App Store Comments/Reviews.

  • Adding a "close" link to my web page in Muse

    Hi,
    I'm setting up a password-protect website and it has a timer where it will "time out" after 15 minutes.  To encourage users to close their browser window, which will get rid of the password login upon closing of the browser, I added a CLOSE like you see below:
    The code is:
    <a href="JavaScript:window.close()">Close</a>
    But for some reason this code does not work.  You click on it and nothing happens.  Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Or is there some other way you can do this in Muse?  Thanks.

    I actually found a solution in another forum but lost the link to it and believe it or not, I can no longer find that link :-/
    But I remember it saying that if you use the close JS code you must also use the open JS code too.  In other words, if the only way to close a browser with JS is if you also opened that same window with JS.
    The tut I found said that you can put a close JS link that's actually an open JS that opens a page.  But you also put code on that newly open page that redirects and closes it.  It sounds like a cool solution but I can't find it any more and looked every where.

  • Most of the time when i click my magic mouse on an item it gives me options like back, open new page, etc.

    When I try to use my magic mouse, most of the time it won't open an item but instead will give me options like: back, open new page, open link in new window, and I am actually on top of for instance, the comment field in facebook...It takes several attempts of clicking off the entire page to get it to just open the link or respond appropriately...

    the mouse performs a right click instead of a left click. Check your mouse preferences in the system settings.

How do I get the nav bar to load up and show? It was a disaster loading up my site as it changed the case of the letters and at first no pages were seen, so I had to go through and change the letters that were supposed to be cap, back to cap in every file. I don't know if this has something to do with it or not. The tech support doesn't have an answer. Please let me know if you have any ideas and solutions. Thanks bunches!

  • The app store on my iPad looks like a broken web page?

    Hi! First, let me apologise if this is in the wrong ocation. If it is, please move the thread. Thanks! (Sorry.)
    Now only the problem...
    I'm no newb to technology so I'll do what I can to explain this. It's an intermittent and unusual issue, basically, and what happens is that for most of the day the app store looks like a broken web page (like CSS and images aren't loading), and I can only access it normally every now and then. But here's where it gets weird.
    The PC iTunes is fine (both web and application) and loads images, behaves normally, and so on. No issues there. All sites are accessible, and I have no trouble reaching Apple servers (I've run latency checks).
    What I've also tried:
    - Rebooting my router (multiple times).
    - Closing all apps on the iPad (including the store) then trying the app store (as the only app open).
    - Rebooting the iPad, then trying again.
    - Signing out of the store, rebooting the iPad, and signing in before trying again.
    - Doing the above step but with all apps closed first.
    - Browsing on the iPad (via Maven and Safari), both are fine. No weird Internet issues.
    What boggles the mind is that the PC iTunes and web version of the app store works. I mean, if I go to the web app store and look at the page for a game, I get images of the game. If I use my iPad, I get the border of the image with a [?] icon in it. (As I said, it looks like a broken web page where CSS and images just aren't loading.)
    Sometimes, but more rarely, I'll have trouble connecting to the store.
    And occasionally (but even more rarely) it behaves just fine.
    If it wasn't for the intermittent nature of it I'd be convinced that I'd somehow corrupted the app store on the iPad somehow. But the more I think about it the more I wonder if this is my ISP somehow being ridiculous despite the web/PC application working. And currently I'm really at a loss. It's worse because when I want to sit down and browse the app store to buy some things, I can't. So this is stopping me from giving Apple money.
    It might just be my ISP though. My ISP is Surfwise, if it helps. As I said, no other Internet issues at all.

    Boo. I can't edit. Sorry...
    I also want to note that my iPad is -not- rooted and is quite new. And also that it's a third generation iPad.

    In newer versions of Flash Pro, you can export to HTML5 Canvas, that's probably what they're talking about: Flash Professional Help | Creating and publishing an HTML5 Canvas document
    .FLV and .SWF are Flash formats that won't show up on iOS (or an ever increasing number of other mobile devices).

    When I open a second tab in Firefox, it does not go to my home page. Instead it goes to a page that displays what looks like a collection of pages (or links) that I have visited in the recent or distant past. I would much rather have it go to my home page which is much more useful to me. I have tried to change this in 'Options' but with no luck. Please fix this.

  • Adobe muse like feature in Reflow

    When can we expect to have adobe muse like features e.g., widgets, library etc to be included in reflow? One thing I don't like about muse that I like about reflow is that it export somewhat sematic html, css, So, its re usable. Having muse like widgets and library capability I think will be great. Ofc having to able to import a bootstrap will be just as nicer!

    Unfortunately, that is not likely to happen. We are looking to get feedback about what responsive features you would like to see in Muse, if you are interested, please email me: [email protected]
