Change the default "Hand" cursor to "Select" cursor?

I am making an interactive PDF, and I do not want the user to miss a link when they click, and be brought to the next page.
I think my only way to combat the scrolling problem is to make the "Select" object the default cursor when the user opens the document.
Is there a way to do this?
Also, is there any way to disable the scroll wheel on a PDF?
Thanks in advance! I'm using Adobe Acrobat X Pro

Try setting the check boxes in Edit>Preferences>General for the following:
- Make Hand tool select text & images
- Make Hand tool read articles
- Make Hand tool use mouse-wheel zooming
Adjust these as needed but does it make any difference?

  • Change the default option for a select box

    Hi,
    I have a select box, with the options built from a Spry Dataset
    <select name="AvatarSelect" id="AvatarSelect" spry:region="myAvatars">
        <option spry:repeat="myAvatars">{A_NAME}</option>
      </select>
    I wish to change the default selected option (which is usually the first row returned from the dataset) based on a value for A_NAME that I know from another spry dataset.
    Tried using Spry.$$('#AvatarSelect') to get to the the array of select options but to no avail.
    How can I cycle through the options and then set the selected on, based on a match for A_NAME?
    Cheers
    Phil

    Hi Phil
    I think this is the way
    <select name="AvatarSelect" id="AvatarSelect" spry:region="myAvatarsLookup myAvatarsValue">
      <option spry:repeat="myAvatarsLookup" spry:test="'{myAvatarsValue::A_NAME}'=='{myAvatarsLookup::id}'" value="{myAvatarsLookup::id}" selected="selected">{A_NAME}</option>
      <option spry:repeat="myAvatarsLookup" spry:test="'{myAvatarsValue::A_NAME}'!='{myAvatarsLookup::id}'" value="{myAvatarsLookup::id}">{A_NAME}</option>
    </select>

  • Where is the default DnD cursor?

    Does anyone know the class name of the default DnD cursor (or how to get it from a factory)?
    It doesn't appear to be associated with any of the awt.Cursor contants (awt.Cursor.MOVE_CURSOR, awt.Cursor.CROSS_HAIR_CURSOR, etc.).
    I'd like to use it in an app that explicitly sets the cursor. (I imagine that it' somewhere in javax.swing.plaf.*, but I haven't been able to find it.)
    Thanks,
    bw

    Be sure in Folder Options, your view settings do not hide file extensions, so you'll know a PST when you see it.  The default path actually depends on 3 things: OS version, Outlook version, whether the installer
    or subsequent administrator changed the defaults.  It will be in one of these three places, where %username% is obviously the name of the user in question, and everything is on drive letter C:
    1)  XP and older:  C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
    2)  Vista & Windows 7:  C:\Users\%username%\Documents\Outlook Files
    3)  Vista & Windows 7:  C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook
    This Microsoft document elaborates on more than Outlook 2010, including the information above, and the easist way to find the default location:

  • How do I change the default app for opening a file;

    If I right click on a file in finder, it tells me what the default app for opening the file is.  it also gives me a short list of other apps.
    I would like to change the defaults for several file types, and also delete one app from the short list and add a different one.
    How do I do this?
    thanks

    You could try this:
    - right-click (tap with 2 fingers on the apple trackpad) on a file you want to open in openoffice
    - move the cursor over "open with". You should see the default app, then some suggestions, then app store, then at the end, "other...".  Select "other..."
    - find openoffice in your applications folder and select it  (if it is dimmed, change "enable: " from "recommended applications" to "all applications", then you can select "openoffice")
    - check "always open with"
    - then, click "open".  The file will open in openoffice and from now on, openoffice will be the default application to open the type of file you just opened.  You should also see the icon of all files of the same type change to the openoffice file icon.
    This is supposed to work, but that's not always the case, especially when the default app happens to be an Apple app.  If you don't want to use that Apple app, delete it (or move it elsewhere if you want a backup). That can help.
    Good luck!

  • How can i change the default icon of a new folder?

    what i mean is like every time i create a new folder instead of changing the icon after its created, can i somehow change the default icon on a new folder i create? so when i create a new folder its created with the icon i want it to have?
    and i want to do it manually i dont want to use programs for it
    thanks

    i know but i dont want to use candy bar, were do i go to do it manually?
    why not? use LiteIcon then. it's free and is MUCH safer than mucking with system files by hand. if you insist you can do it as follows. go to /system/library/coreservices. control-click on coretypes.bundle and select "show package contents". go to contents-> resources. change the file GenericFolderIcon.icns with your own .icns file. back up the original bundle first.

    I have read the on line directions for this and it reads "select a file type in the left pane."   I do not see where this is in the left pane.  All I see in the left pane is "Browser start pages" and a "How do I " Pane.  Nothing with file types.

    Click on Edit menu then choose preferences.
    Once the preferences dialog box open.
    click on file editors.
    On the Left pane you will find all the file types which you want to edit .

  • Can I change the default transition in FCE?

    Is this possible? Or is it at least possible to change the default cross dissolve length ?

    Right-click on a transition in the Timeline and select Duration from the pop-up menu. Enter the desired duration.
    Alternatively, you can double-click a transition in the Timeline or the Browser to load it into the Viewer window and change the duration to the desired number of frames in the upper left-hand Duration window of the Viewer. After making the change, drag the transition to where you need it on the Timeline.

  • How do you change the default save as directory when saving a PDF file to your hard drive?

    This is the on-line help instructions on this site:
    Downloading a PDF file to your hard drive
    You can download a PDF file to the hard drive from a web page's link. Downloading PDF files doesn't require the ActiveX plug-in file to be installed. (If you want to open and view the PDF file after downloading it, you must have Acrobat, Adobe Reader, or Acrobat Reader installed.)
    To download a PDF file from a link:
    1. Right-click the link to a PDF file, and then choose Save Target As from the pop-up menu.
    2. In the Save As dialog box, select a location on your hard drive, and then click Save.
    My issue:  I want to save several pdf files (from the Adobe Reader in my browser) one at a time and each time it defaults the save as directory to the desktop and I have to go looking for the directory I last saved a pdf file in.  I got lots of directories and I wish I could change the default setting for the save as directory.  Just a minor thing but irritating as other programs usually will allow you to switch the default save as directory to one of your choosing.

    There is not a way to set the default location from all the forums i searched in the last couple days.

  • How do you change the default font in indesign cs3 on a mac?

    Hi, I have tried closing all indesign docs and then changing the font in the font menu to helvetica (from times), then opening a new document and it still gives me [Times (TT)] when i draw a new text box and write something in it.
    I have tried quitting indesign and reopening it and its still the old default font of [Times (TT)] - which is also not an available font on my machine.
    I have also changed my basic paragraph style to helvetica from times, and it still doesnt change the default font when i open a new document.
    When i open a new document in indesign it comes up with helvetica in the character pallet as the font, its just when i go to draw a text box and write something in it that it writes it in Times.

    Is it possible you have more than one text frame object style, or that you have some default paragraph style set other than [Basic Paragraph]? If you are only editing Basic Paragraph and your default text frame is set to another syle, or you have another paragraph style selected when you begin typing, you might see this behavior.
    If not, try resetting your preferences. Replacing InDesign Preferences
