Button for sticky notes

I want to make a button on a form that would open up a sticky note so it could be added to a form. Next I would like to change the look of a signature field to look like a button of my design.
Thanks

Re sticky note: You can attach a script to the button that adds a new sticky note, somewhere on the page, using the addAnnot() command.
But wouldn't it be easier to just use the built-in Sticky Note tool?

  • Change Author Property for Sticky Note

    Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit
    Adobe Acrobat XI Pro
    I want to change my name from "Kevin" to "Kevin Stecyk" as the author on my Sticky Notes.
    I have tried opening the Annotations Panel and right mouse clicking on the Sticky Note. Unfortunately, "Kevin" is in gray and can't be changed.
    When I create a Sticky Note, I can right mouse click on the Sticky Note and change my name to Kevin Stecyk. However, on the next note, I am back to just Kevin. I can even change my name and select "Make Properties Default". Again, once I create a new Sticky Note, I am back to just Kevin.
    How do I change the author property for Sticky Note (and others) and have that change stick?

    - Go to Edit - Preferences - Comments and untick the box that says "Always
    use log-in name for author name".
    - Restart Acrobat.
    - Create a new comment, edit it and set it as the new default.

  • How do I search for sticky notes in a PDF doc?

    Several people (at work) have commented on a 440-page document that I created, using sticky notes to write their comments in. When I first open the document, the sticky notes are all closed. The icon for a closed sticky note is pretty small and not brightly colored, so they're easy to miss when scrolling through hundreds of image-heavy pages. I am hoping that it's possible to search for each occurrence of a sticky note.
    If there is no way to search for the notes, is there a command I can use to open all the notes in the file (in one action) so that they are larger and easier to spot?
    Platform: Windows 8 PC
    Version: Acrobat 8
    If this is not a feature available in Acrobat 8, is it possible to do this in later versions?
    Apologies if this is not the right community for this question, but none of the ones listed seemed like the obvious choice, and there is no "miscellaneous" or "general" category. If there is a better community for the question, please let me know.
    Thanks,
    Joyce.

    Out the gate you've a problem.
    The Acrobat 8 product family passed into "End of Support" many years ago (well before the release of Windows 8).
    "End of Support" means -- well, just that eh.
    The Acrobat 8 product family is not compatible with Windows 8.1, 8 or 7.
    The Acrobat XI product family is compatible with Windows 8 / 8.1.
    Regarding Comment and Mark Up Annotations:
    With Acrobat 8 Pro use the "Comments List".
    Same wit Acrobat 9 Pro, X Pro and XI Pro.
    May be available with the various versions' "Standard" release.
    The contents of a Comments List can be exported to a PDF report.
    The filter an be used to display specific characteristics / attributes which then become the reports content when you output a report.
    Having "8" the Help PDF file got loaded with the install of "8".
    Use it to review the information provided on the Comments List.
    Be well...

  • Opacity and Windows Flip behaviour for Sticky Notes

    I really like the new Sticky Notes application, but I would like that it would have opacity options, just like the old sticky notes sidebar gadget on Vista. My sticky notes look really out of place in my desktop with all my semi-transparent gadgets, and they block my wallpaper.
    Also, could it be possible to remove them from the Windows Flip (alt-tab) windows? They don't appear in Flip3D, so there is no reason they would also appear in regular Flip.

    You can move the file from the system gadgets folders to your user gadgets forders and edit the html of the gadget to do things like transparency.

  • HT1343 Power button – for Standby not working anymore

    Power button – OS X Mavericks
    Tap to power on. Once powered on, tap to wake or sleep.
    This shortcut is not working after update anymore. My system is 10.9.2 . is it possible to define the power button pressed shortly to standby like it was before?

    It was change because laptop owners couldn't keep from accidentally hitting the power button when reaching for the delete key.
    Press and hold for about 2 seconds to get sleep.
    Press and hold for about 4-5 seconds for dialog box.
    Press and hold for about 10 seconds to force shutdown.

    Enhance the Component and the view and then the Context Node TEXT. Redefine the method GET_OCA_T_TABLE and code your logic of hiding and displaying the delete button.

  • Authorization Button for PC not appearing

    I had to restore my iPhone today and when I went to go authorize my PC to play purchases, the button doesn't appear. I looked on the support pages and deleted the SC file and that didn't work. Any suggestions on what to do?

    There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
    The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
    If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
    Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
    Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

  • PDF sticky notes

    Hello all,
    I have a project in which i have to do following things:
    1. Open the PDF in the browser.
    2. Write sticky notes on it.
    3. Extract those sticky notes from the PDF and save it to database.
          (meaning there should be some button on the PDF which will ave those sticky notes)
    4. Next time when the PDF is open it should be linked to those sticky notes in the same place.
    Is it possible to get sticky notes feature on the web browser and also is it possible seperate out the sticky notes from PDF.
    Thnaks,
    Rohan

    George,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Using FF6 now (FF4? previously), andagainAcrobat 8 (full version).
    Yes, Acrobat toolbar appears in browser.  Even within the browser, I'm
    able to rt-click to choose "Customize," then "More tools" + "Comment &
    Markup Toolbar" + check the checkbox for "Sticky Note"--but when I hit
    "OK," it just goes back to the previous Acrobat toolbar (without Sticky
    Note ).  For one thing, if it's
    not going to let you select those things, the option shouldn't be
    thereat best, the options should be there but GREYED OUTbut that's a
    whole other level of usability problem.
    I recall having had this frustration long ago, and then spending an
    inordinate amount of time figuring out how to fix the problem--which I
    did, but I have NO IDEA what was done to fix it.  It seems like it was
    enabling some feature within Acrobat--like "enable review groups" or
    some such seemingly random thing as that.  ("Random" to me because I
    just use sticky notes to make notes for myself [or other subsequent
    readers of the document]; I've never used group review features [or
    whatever they call them now, or whatever they used to call them...!)
    I'm just a standalone user who just simply wants to put sticky notes in
    documents I read on the web, and THEN (with a single click) save the
    result locally.  (Yes, I know I can save the document somewhere, open
    Acrobat, FIND the document, etc., etc., etc.--but what an INCREDIBLE
    waste of time that is!!)
    I've poked around in Acrobat options, and spent another inordinate
    amount of time looking for a solution on the web, but still haven't
    (re-)figured out how to fix this problem.  Interestingly, my internet
    search for the problem almost immediately brought up someone else who
    had the exact same problem--but that person was ME!! ...and,
    unfortunately, it wasn't a thread that anyone answered.
    Am very appreciative of your attention to this issue, and would love it
    if you had some insights you could share RE: a solution.

  • Printing Sticky notes content

    How do I get my sticky notes content to print? I am already using the "SUmmarize COntent button. I have Windows 7 and a Lexmark Pro200 Series printer.  I am using  Adobe Reader 11.0.02. To clarify: they print on the page but overlapping each other and obscuring the text. OR they print as a separate page.  Are these the options, or am I doing something wrong? Am I limited to one sticky per page? If so, where should I place it?

    So the only way to print sticky notes in 9.0 is a manual registry change below.
    For Reader 8 and later you may need to add the key manually.
    Add the following Reg key:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\[acrobat version]\Annots\cPrefs]
    "bprintCommentPopups"=dword:00000001
    Which I did and it worked but where is the preference check under commenting for sticky notes in versin 9.0?
    If it was just my computer not having the category, commenting I would think it was a bad install but none of the computers in our office have that choice either. I hate to think I have to make a registry changes on each computer to print Sticky notes.
    I do appreciate the registry work around though!

  • Acrobat X - Sticky notes and spellcheck

    The spell checker for sticky notes and dialog boxes used in editing pdf documents in Acrobat Pro X is not working properly. When it auto corrects a misspelled word, it attaches the last letter of the word being relaced to the new word -- resulting in another misspelling. No fixes found for this.  Does anyone have a workaround?

    It's a known bug that will be fixed in a forthcoming update.

  • Are sticky notes able to be "mirrored" onto specific pages?

    I was wondering if there is a way for sticky notes to be mirrored onto specific pages or if there is any solution which would work the same way.
    I have created a log to track when people come in and out of the office. There are multiple pages to this document and I was hoping that there would be a way to solve this matter. If not, is there another solution to it with the same concept? (Besides creating text fields with the same name because I have already done that to mirror the text onto specific pages)
    Thank you in advance.

    I'm not exactly sure of what you are trying to do. But off the top of my head, I'd think you are trying to use Acrobat as a database. I might suggest you use a database. It can replicate notes or anything else you might need. The easiest database that I know of for creating decent looking pages is FileMaker. It comes in several versions to accommodate different needs (Pro, Advanced, Server, Server Advanced).

  • Sticky notes for user sometimes are huge amongst other errors acrobat 9.5.5... repair did not fix

    The user writes:
    Hi,
    Lately my PDF has been having small issues when I use it in engagement. Work paper references come up either giant or tiny. If I want to leave a "sticky note" it comes up as giant and then if I try to click on it to write in it its super
    zoomed in and I can't even see where I would write, sometimes work paper references want me to do this too. When I try to resize tick marks they will also sometimes zoom in as a comment section. Today it has been occasionally freezing on a page and not letting
    me scroll at all unless I toggle between the fit to screen and show one page buttons- it's like that resets the scrolling. It never used to do this so I'm not sure why it is now.
    Any suggestions would be great.
    Thanks,
    Dan
    Edit: I should add we tested and indeed it's with all pdfs not just ones coming through engagement.

    This problem was solved; the above note is just an aid for users experiencing similar problems.
