var mouseListener = new Object();
mouseListener.onMouseMove = function() {
if (_ymouse > 394) {
tweenY(taskBar, 360);
} else if (_ymouse < 360 &&

I accidentally turned Auto hide on my task Bar...

Hey,
There is probebly a really easy answer to this but somehow iv enabled the 'finder' bar at the top of my mac (that shows the time and battery and things) to Auto hide and its driving me insane. How do I get it back to normal.
Thanks
Brittney

Well, this is one thing I found:
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11359
There also seem to be different ways depending on which app you are using, so you may want to check out the Help section available in all apps (under Help in the menu bar). Sorry, but I'm not that knowledgeable about it since I never use it.

How do you auto hide the finder menu bar

Prior to Mavericks, I could auto hide the finder menu bar by inserting:
<key>LSUIPresentationMode</key>
<integer>4</integer>
in the finder info.plist after accessing core services/finderapp/contents/resources, but now in the Mavericks OSX, I receive the following error message:
"Finder Quit Unexpectantly" and a list of various reasons; codes; etc too long to list here. Is auto hiding the finder menu bar even doable anymore in this operating system, and if so what is the solution?

How do you reverse that process? I was trying it with various apps, substituting the app name in the terminal command and it worked great until I got to the "Notes" app. I think it messed up how notes synced with iCloud.
Thanks

Can I move the task bar from the bottom of the screen to the RH side? How?

The task bar aligns across the bottom of my screen, but I'd like to move it to display vertically on the LH side of the screen. Is this possible? If so, how do I go about it?

You're quite welcome. Thanks for marking question as answered.

Same button on single frame to display/hide movie clip?

Hi, can a button on a single frame be coded to both display a movie clip on its first click and, after a second click, hide the movie clip? Thanks

Yes, assuming you make the movieclip invisible to start with, in the event handler function just use...
mc_name.visible = !mc_name.visible;

Hide Movie Clip

Hide movie clip of external swf

Hi there.
I have my main.swf and in the second frame i load an external swf called first.swf with this method:
[AS]var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
this.createEmptyMovieClip("myGalleryContainerproducts",5);
myGalleryContainerproducts._lockroot=true;
loader.loadClip("first.swf",myGalleryContainerproducts);
myGalleryContainerproducts._y =86;
myGalleryContainerproducts._x =50;
[/AS]
In first.swf i have two movie clips with instance names ena and dyo
I want in main.swf in the third frame to hide these movie clips of first.swf (only the movie clips not the whole .swf) or to move them (change x and y values) so they practically hide.
Any solutions?
Thank you in advance

You will need to wait until the file is loaded to be able to interact with it, so if that might be an issue timing-wise then look into using the addListener method of the MovieClipLoader class. If the movie is loaded you should be able to access the movieclips within it using the movieclip name you assigned (mygalleryContainerproducts) to target them.

Auto Hide with WebDynpro

Hi All,
In Windows Operating system,Taskmanager i can set properties ->General->Auto Hide.
Bottom Task Bar will be auto hided when mouse is points on Desktop, but if we move towards Taskbar we can see taskbar.
can this be acchived using WebDynpro, let's there is a view with few Buttons, i would like to Autohide this view is it possible to do this,if so what are the steps.
Your help highly appreciated!!!
Regards,
RK

Hi RK,
As far as I know, in WebDynpro you don't have methods to locate the cursor/mouse position. We had a requirement in our project but this feature was not there. We had a discussion with SAP and they asked us to submit a Development Request for the same.
So I think as of now this might not be possible.
I am not sure if there is any work around for the same.
Experts please comment.

Movement of mouse hides window behind title bar at the top of the display

My roommate's daughter was visiting and changed a bunch of settings. I got everything restored except one - at times when I move my mouse (usually in the direction of the title bar), the window "auto hides" behind the title bar. A small border at the bottom of the hidden window remains visible just below the title/tool bar, which, when I click on it, returns it to the screen.
This seems like it might be a good feature to use, IF I only knew what causes it to do this only when I want it to. Can this be turned off if I don't want to use it?
Help & Thanks!

I am having the same problem. Has anyone come up with an answer? Rick M

Hiding windows task bar

I am working on a custom TS operator interface written in CVI 5.5. I am trying to hide the windows task bar. I have used
SetPanelAttribute (panel, ATTR_SYSTEM_MENU_VISIBLE, 0);
and this works, except that when my modelsupport DLL puts a popup on the screen, the taskbar becomes visible again while the popup is present. How can I stop this?

Hi Byron,
I have tried to reproduce the problem you are describing and it seems to work fine for me. One thing I am somewhat confused by is that you say you used the SetPanelAttribute call to hide the "windows taskbar". I believe you are actually talking about the "system menu" that is accessed via the icon on the left side of a window's title bar, as the "windows task bar" is actually the floating menu bar displayed at the bottom of the Window's desktop and contains the infamous Start menu.
Anyhow, I have created an example TS 2.0.1 sequence file that calls a CVI dll which spawns a new thread and displays a panel that has the system menu hidden. If you run the sequence you will see that when the modelsupport.dll displays the modal UUT serial number dialo
g and pass/fail banner dialogs, it does not change the visibility of the system menu displayed by the CVI dll UI. (the reason I create new threads to display the dialog is so that the call to the dll does not wait on RunUserInterface to complete and returns execution to the sequence file immediately).
**Note: The dll project was created in CVI 6.0, and the sequence file in TS 2.0.1, please state what versions of CVI and TS you are using if you want help with a specific version. You do not need TS 2.0.1 to use the dll I created, just simply call the lone function in the dll in a sequence file with the CVI adapter and run the file with Test UUTs in whatever version of TS you have. Since the dll was created in CVI 6.0 you may need to install the CVI 6.0 RTE, which is available on ni.com under the downloads section, and it is fully compatible with previous versions of CVI.
So, just give this a shot to see if you can discern anything from it.

Where's the task bar gone?

The task bar and the status bar have both disappeared. How do I restore them?

Hi Alembic, could you clarify which "status bar" is missing? Firefox 29 and newer do not have the old Add-on bar / Status bar unless you are using an extension to restore them.
Regarding the Taskbar, unless you are in Firefox's full screen view -- F11 switches between normal view and full screen view -- Firefox should never hide the Windows Task bar. When that happens, it can be due to a corrupted settings file. Here is how to clear that file:
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
* type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This should launch a new window listing various files and folders in Windows Explorer.
Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
* (menu bar) File > Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''xulstore.json''' to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename that one to localstore.old.
Start Firefox back up again. Does Firefox display normally again?

SAP Signature Design & Task Bar Auto-Hide Feature

Hi Experts,
I'm having a problem with SAP Business One 8.8 PL18 using the new 8.8 SAP Signature Design. We are in a business with 4 professionals and 1 CRM. When we use the SAP Signature Design Skin Style and you have SBO maximized on the screen and you have Windows auto-hide the Task bar. You can't go back to the task bar with your mouse to switch applications or to just go to your start menu. The only way you can make the task bar appear is by pressing the "window key" to make the task bar display. To change applications, you can still use the "Alt Tab feature". If I put the Skin Style to Classic Mode, everything works great with no apparent display problems.
I've tried this on 3 different operating systems. Windows 7, Windows XP and Windows 2003 Server and the same results. The task bar won't re-pop up if you move your mouse down to it (I tried moving the task bar to the left, top or right to see if that made a difference, and it didn't). I've been using the "Window Key" for now to make the task bar pop up (display), but I think it's a bug with the skin style and not the operating system.
I've tried to get this resolved with our partner, but I don't think they understand the problem, or are just not willing to acknowledge the problem. They probably think it is a petty problem. We all like the new design and would like to use it properly while still having the task bar auto-hide.
The question actually is, do you know of this problem, is there something I can disable or do to get it to work (ie: make it run with compatibility mode to something) or do I just have to live with this problem?
I thank you very much in trying or helping me with this problem
Ron
IT Manager

Hi Ron,
Welcome you post on the forum.
I don't have the same version to test. Based on your detailed explanation, I do think it is probably a bug. Since it may not be used by many users, it could have low priority to be fixed even if it is confirmed to be a bug.
Thanks,
Gordon

ITunes 10.5.0.142 prevents 'auto-hide' task bar reappearing on scroll-over at page bottom when ITunes home page is up. Task bar appears and hides fine on other windows. OS: Win 7.

In Windows 7 my latest ITunes version won't let the 'autohide' feature work for my task bar. I have mine set at the bottom of all pages, and they all work when the Itunes page is up. But not the ITunes home page itself. The task bar is gone, and won't appear on scroll-over.
Look, I'm not going to kill myself over it. I just have to minimize the IT page to get to another task bar.
But I like my auto-hide and won't disable it, and I like what's been done with the new version of IT and - of course - won't get rid of that. I just want them to live together happily ever after.
Thank You in Advance for Your Time;
Curt
