Alternate Text in a Figure Tag

Is there a control, option, or preference that can be toggled on or off for when the alternate text in a figure tag shows when the cursor is hovering over an image in a tagged pdf? I am trying to get it so that the alternate text does NOT show when the cursor is hovering over an image. I also noticed that this happens over some images yet not others. Is there a preference for this?

Thanks!  Because of this advice I used Acrobat to delete every one of the drawing objets that Word had inserted, then tagged, and pasted back the drawings from another copy of the original file. Everything worked except two of the arrows are missing the triangles to indicate direction, and the image that I wanted to add Alt-text to is now tagged as Figure not ClipSpan.  The options for the detailed description I wanted to add are not available for Figure.  However, it is not worth the extra effort for me to try anything else now.
If anyone wants to dig into this deeper I'll tell you that: (1) it is not the original (multi-colour) image that seems to be causing the problem but rather the simple line drawings from Word; (2) When selecting objects in a region with Acrobat I saw a few very small rectangles that didn't seem to have any content.  I guess that Word is somehow putting very large mostly empty graphics on a layer above the text and that Acrobat tagging is changing the background colour of those graphics to the background colour.  But as I know almost nothing about Word and little about Acrobar it is only a guess.

  • Modifying alternate text for links / changing tags?

    I found this page:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Professional/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7 ce8.w.html
    But I don't quite understand it.  I have links in my document that I need to be accessible.  The above-referenced page talks about modifying the tags tree.  Is that what I can see when I click on Show Order Panel in the TouchUp Reading Order window?
    If so, it just looks like a big scary mess to me.  There are so many tags I don't know where to start (this is a software manual so there are sometimes 20+ tags per page).  If that isn't what I'm supposed to be editing, what is?
    I would really appreciate it if someone could explain to me, in simple terms, exactly what to do.  When I go into the Tags section of the Show Order Panel the items marked <link> don't have any indication of what they are or where they go, so I don't know which link I am editing!
    Thanks in advance for any assistance!

  • How do you add alternate text to a child tag?

    I have a link that I've added alternative text to but it does not show when I mouse over it. Any help appreciated.

    Greetings,
    Are you displaying the document in Acrobat, a browser, or some form of assistive technology? Alt text is used by assistive technology. For example a screen reader will speak the alt text instead of whatever it is set as an alternative to. It isn't mouseover text. To the best of my knowledge Acrobat provides no easy way of setting mouseover text when the document is viewed in Acrobat or a web browser - someone please correct me if there is a way to do this.
    Hope this helps.

  • "Other elements alternate text failed"

    In the accessibility report, the “Other elements alternate
    text” check keeps failing. It is identifying figures, which already have
    alternative text under their figure tag, as “other elements.” Is there any way
    to solve this problem?
    Also, with all of the elements that are registering as “failed,”
    I am not able to locate them in the tags panel because I get the message “The
    selection was not found in the tags panel.”
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Did you write the alternative text into the appropriate field in object export settings?

  • Img tag - alternate text not read on Vista laptop

    Hello,
    I noticed something curious and maybe it migth just be a small thing to have it solved.
    On my website www.lotolux.com I added to my pictures the alternate text.   On my desktop under XP when I go with the cursor over those pictures the alternate text appears.
    I have also an Acer Timeline laptop and here I have Vista on it.   Now when go to my website using my laptop the alternate text doesn't show up.
    Has this something to do with Vista?  How can solve this ?
    Many thanks for your help
    Kind regards
    Martine

    Murray, Martin,
    ""IE8 does not show the alternate text"
    How come that IE8 does show the alternate text on my pictures when I go on the internet using my desktop under XP.
    When I use my laptop with Vista + IE8 it doesn't work.
    So I assume it is the combination XP+IE8 that do work, but the combination Vista+IE8 doesn't.  Is that correct?
    Then hopefully Windows 7 will fix that bug.
    Murray,
    Where can I find the "title attribute" in DW CS4?  Couldn't find it yet.
    Many thanks to you both for helping me out.

  • Alternate text for "Text content"

    Hi friends,
    I have one doube in postscript language to implement alternate text for "Text content"
    Can anybody please help me on this
    We have using the below tags for alternate text for images.
    [/Subtype /Figure /Alt (Image of Figure 2-1) /StPNE pdfmark

    [/StBMC pdfmark
    Please share me your comments
    Regards,
    Jayakrishnan

    I wouldn't swear to this, but I think what's happening is the effect is essentially treated as a separate image during export, but as far as I know you have no way to select it to add the alt text or anything else. I don't really do this kind of work, so I could be way off base here.
    A newer version of ID might behave better, so you may want to consider downloading the trial for CS4

  • [CS3 JS] How to associate text with an XML tag

    Hello,
    I have a script that allows one to create or modify an XML tag after one selects text, a text frame or an existing XML tag. It works fine for making the XML tag but it does not associate the text or text frame to the tag. To do that I have to right click on the selection and use the context menu to Tag Text or Tag Frame.
    I want to make this automatic but cannot see how to script it.
    Thanks for any help

    I figured out the problem (which of course creates other interesting problems).
    In the line:
    var elementRef = rootElement.xmlElements.add (tagRef);
    I forgot to add a reference to the xmlContent. It should read:
    var elementRef = rootElement.xmlElements.add (tagRef, whatToTag);
    However, this script is designed to create a dialog box where one can either create a tag along with attributes or edit an existing one. I'll post it when I am done, but there is one hangup. The script not only changes the name of a selected xml tag but all tags with the same name. How can I get it to change only the selected tag? Below is the boiled down script that duplicates that problem.
    Thanks,
    Tom

  • Is there a way set up a tooltip popup that displays alternate text on an image rollover in DW CC?

    I would like to set up a tooltip popup that displays alternate text on an image rollover. I am using Dreamweaver CC. Used to be a Spry widget, but those options seem to be gone. Not looking for anything elaborate, just a simple tooltip message box.

    Hi Daylilybud,
    If you are looking for a tool tip on hovering over the image, try adding attribute  ->  title="Your text" inside your image tag.
    For example <img src="" alt=""  title="Test"> .
    See if this resolves your problem.

  • Text Catalog showing HTML tags

    We are having an issue after applying Bundle #22 for HCM 8.9 where the calls to the Text Catalog are now showing HTML tags. Has anyone else seen this? Im trying to figure out if its the bundle or something maybe with our customizations that have affected this change. Basically the page where the text from the text catalog displays now shows not only the text, but raw HTML tags as well on the page. Example: BR, B

  • How do you set up so that you can view the alternate text on an image when you hover over it like you do in IE?

    Using Mozilla at present the alternate text for an image does not pop up when you hover your mouse over the image. This is what occurs in Internet Explorer. In Mozilla Firefox you have to right click, choose Properties and then you can view the alternate text. Is there a way to set up the mouse hover? Or is there a keyboard shortcut to at least view the Properties information of an image on a webpage quicker?

    The Alt attribute isn't meant to show as a tooltip on hover.
    The Alt attribute is meant to show if the image isn't or can't be displayed.
    The title attribute is meant to show if you hover an image or link.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Image_tooltips_do_not_work

    Appreciate early response on this.
    Thanks in Advance,

    Dear Ola,
    Could you elaborate how you achieved in catching the response data from the receiver in case of HTTP receiver adapter?
    The target service is not a WebService but some python script that must to receive some paramters via POST request.
         HOW can I post this parameters?
    Here you entered the fields of the message type of the request in the header parameters of the receiver adapter? Thats fine.
    But what about the message type and vice versa of the response from the receiver?
    Regards

  • Makina text area read html tags

    How can i make a html text area recognize html tags.

    According to http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/reports/10.1.2/state/content/navId.3/navSetId._/vtTopicFile.htmlhelp_rwbuild_hs%7Crwwhthow%7Cwhatare%7Coutput%7Ca_inlinehtml%7Ehtm/
    Oracle Reports only supports a specific set of HTML tags. Have you already checked if they match? Maybe you have to use REPLACE to translate them into "proper" ones in your report SQL statement.
    Have you already had a direct look in your data, if the HTML tags are encoded in some way. eg. & lt; for < ?
