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.

What changes are required for OSS note 456507

Hi All,
PLease advise me what changes are required for OSS note 456507 (Assign the function groups QOWK or ORFC in the authorization object S_RFC to tRFC/qRFC users).
Im thinking of just going with the following additions to Role
AAAB Cross Application Auth Objects
S_RFC
Activity 16
Name of RFC - *
Type of RFC - *
But wanted to check what the implications of doing such a thing were, are there any negative points that you can think of opening up the access as above, as opposed to what was suggested in the OSS note?
Your advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Sandhya.

Hello Sandhya,
S_RFC is needed in case of making any RFC calls.
Normally it is needed for users that are mentioned in RFC destinations.
As such mostly these users are system/communication users or super users.
Without giving access to function groups through S_RFC successful RFC call can´not be done.
Now the value of field name of RFC can be * but only for those users which are really global super users. In case you need this authorization for any selective functionality as in you case only for function groups QOWK or ORFC then you should try to restrict the access. Negatiity is only that in case of * the authorization access increases but for system or super users you dont need to worry too much really because with system/communication users no one can login and the super users will have sap_all generally. Also their passwords will be a well kept secret so that a miususe can not be made.
By global super users I mean users which are used for various types of activites.
Please award points accordingly.
Regards.
Ruchit.

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...

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?

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.

ADF BC : Changing Mandatory property for the EO Attribute at runtime

Hi all,
I have one Entity attribute, which has to be Mandatory for all new, not yet commited row; but it is not mandatory_ for any others, existing (in the database) row. How to acquire this ?

You might need to write a validation method to achieve this:
check if:
getEntityState() == Entity.STATUS_NEW or Entity.STATUS_INITIALIZED
To show * mandatory indicator on the UI, you could use the above property exposed via some bean property/VO transient attribute...

Property for fields not working properly.

Hi
I am doing some validation on tab strip.
initially on some value my tab strip is coming,due to visibility binding property.
now i am trying to do visibility binding on individual tabs of tab strip on user based,which is not working.
is there any way to make it work out.
my code:
   call method wd_context->set_attribute
        EXPORTING
          name = `PROP_CREDIT`    "Context attr name
          value = space.
to hide a credit view, i had attached a attr to its transparent cont.,& have passed the value space to make it non visible.
but it not working,i am doing this like enabled,visible on 3-4 tables,but noting happening.
pls let me know how to make it work.

HI Vipin,
I have tested ouy this way...
Ihave a TB with 3 tabs, Last tab has got One TC inside which there are 2 other TCs(TC2,3) with Input fields inside them.
I bound the ENABLED property of TC2 to the ENABLE(wdy_boolean) property and coded in DOINIT of view.
I didnt code it in modifyview.
Its working fine for me..
Please test it in some demo application you will get to know the errors.
DATA lv_enable TYPE wd_this->element_context-enable.
* get element via lead selection
lo_el_context = wd_context->get_element( ).
* @TODO handle not set lead selection
IF lo_el_context IS INITIAL.
ENDIF.
* @TODO fill attribute
lv_enable = abap_false.
* set single attribute
lo_el_context->set_attribute(
    name = `ENABLE`
    value = lv_enable ).
I guess, there is some thing going wrong in MODIFYVIEW. for every event this gets triggered right.
Now the TC2 got disabled also the Inoutfield inside it got disabled.
Regards,
Lekha.

AddListener property for ChoiceBox not working in MAC !!!

The following piece of code is working fine in Windows but not in MAC. Any idea?
cb.getSelectionModel().selectedItemProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener<String>() {
@Override public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends String> selected, String oldValue, String newValue) {
if(!oldValue.equalsIgnoreCase(newValue))
refreshScreen();
Thanks in advance !!!

There are some issues with combo boxes/choice boxes. Probably this can be of some help:

Changing the Default meta data field property required into not required.

Hi,
Is it possible to change the default meta data field property values in UCM server.
For example consider the meta data Revision field which property required is true, then how to change this property required into not required.
Is this possible or not?
Thanks
Hari

Hari,
in your case (if you don't want to use versioning) I'd rather recommend to change it to hidden than not required. You should be able to do it with standard profiles (the field name, I believe, is dRevision)
I don't think you can have the field empty (in case someone deletes the content).

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).

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.
Aloha,

Why can't I read the Sticky Notes I put in my PDF?

I've made PDFs before and added sticky notes, which I can go back to and read later. But this time around, when I added sticky notes and saved the document, later on when I went back the sticky note image was there, but I couldn't access any of the note itself. I thought maybe it had to do with an expired trial of Adobe Pro, but I've since upgraded and still can't read them.

Hi bscraver,
It could be that the opacity of the sticky note changed. Do the sticky notes appear if you choose Comments > Comments List? If so, try selecting one in the Comments List right-click and check the Properties. If the opacity is 0% increase it.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara
