Changing a cursor for modal dialogs

I have a requirement to change the cursor whenever the mouse is moved over a window that is blocked by a modal window. Any ideas how I can go about doing this? Ideally, the solution would add minimal overhead to the application.
Thanks

The setting for the graphics check box Does Not make a difference.  If I have a new document window open, then add a layer, then open the blending options > drop shadow > edit the color > the chooser dialog opens, and immediately both dialog windows drop behind the palettes AND any document windows.
The same behavior for the Preferences dialog > guides > color.
The quick workaround is to click another app, then back to CS6.  A real pain, of course.
It is only a factor when opening a second (child) dialog box.
Other CS6 apps do work correctly (eg. FW AE)
I have yet to get a handle on this.  Mac OSX 10.6.8    CS6 13.0  x64
Thanks for your replies, and the long reply time for me was a vaction away from the office.

  • Is there a fix for modal dialogs opening behind palettes -cs6 -osx 10.6.8

    Is there a fix for modal dialogs open behind palettes in
    Photoshop cs6 13.0 (createive cloud update) + OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard on MacBook Pro? 
    ( I am using 2 monitors where the second monitor is set to be the menu display.  cs4 does not exhibit this bug. )
    Toggling the Application Frame off improves the hiding 'feature' but this does not include the desired continuous floating in front of palettes in all circumstances.
    An example is Blending Options, then chose Stroke, then chose the Color Picker.  After clicking OK, the Blending Options dialog now sits behind the palettes.  One trick is to click on another app, then back to cs6 to force a window redraw.
    It sure would help me if this could be solved.  I am preparing educational videos and this display bug makes things very troublesome.
    Thanks for any help.  If I find a solution, I will post to this thread so everyone can benefit.

  • BDC for Modal dialog screen

    Hello,
      I'm creating a bdc for create customer transaction (FD01). The problem I'm currently having is on maintaining the "other communication" details for the customer. The requirement I have is to maintain only the communication type "URI". But I can't find the correct program and screen number for this modal dialog. anyone have an idea?
    Thanks?
    MP

    Hi, thanks for all the reply. However, everything has been tried. The modal screen dialog I was refering at does not contain any program or screen details when I use F1. This screen does not appear in SHDB when doing the recording. SAPLSLVC_FULLSCREEN/0700 is not the screen I'm refering at.
    When you click on the "Other Communication", there will appear the screen I'm refering at having the list of all other communication type you need to maintain (Fax, Telephone, E-mail, URI). This screen is somehow similar the way serach help functions. I'm basically concern on URI. So what I need to do is place the cursor on URI and click on the check button or double cliking URI is ok. This is the part missing on my bdc, choosing the URI in the modal dialog screen. Upon debugging, it seems that a Function is responsible in displaying the screen.Any idea?

  • How to change the icon for print dialog?

    Hello,
    I have a JTable, and with the print() method, I'm able to bring up the Print dialog and successfully print the contents of the table. Example:
    myTable.print( JTable.PrintMode.FIT_WIDTH, myHeaderFormat, myFooterFormat );This works great, but one small detail I'd like to change is the icon in the top-left corner of the dialog. The icon is currently the default Java coffee cup icon, while the rest of my application uses my custom icon. I couldn't find any documentation in the API or tutorials that Java has listed which shows how to change the icon, so I'm not even sure if it's possible (but why shouldn't it be?).
    My question is this: Is it possible to change the default icon in the print dialog? Or do I have to either make my own print dialog somehow, or use a third-party print dialog?
    Thanks

    tjacobs01: Appreciate the assistance (despite your sass). I've already searched the API, tutorials, and this forum. I'm already well aware of the setIconImage() method for JFrame -- after all, that's how I set the icon for my other frames as I previously mentioned. However, I want to set the icon for the print dialog called from the print() method of JTable.
    How would I use setIconImage() for the print() method of JTable? The print() method returns a boolean value, not a JFrame, so I'm just not sure how to implement what you're saying.
    Thanks

  • Modal Dialog RuntimeException

    I'm using the Blackberry API Level 4.5,  Currently we have a app that on startup prompts the user if there is a new version available for download.  In this method we check if the new version is greater or not.  We then get a handle on the UI, call the invokeAndWait() method while pushing a modal dialog on the screen.  This is where the new version dialog prompt is.  This dialog is a predefined dialog and waits for a users response.  We get a handle on the EventLock, pass in the downloadUrl.  At this point the download screen should be pushed to screen.  But instead we get a runtime exception our app doesn't start properly and the modal dialog screen freezes on the screen while our code executes in the background.  First question, is the application method 'invokeAndWait' actually doing what it should? Secondly, could it be possible that the dialog is doing a lock?

    <b>Screen type for modal dialog box</b>
    If you activate this attribute, the screen is used as a modal dialog box. In the program, you call the screen with
    CALL SCREEN  STARTING AT  <top left>
                 ENDING   AT  <bottom right>.
    Unlike normal pop-ups, a modal dialog box has its own pushbuttons and title. There is no menu bar and command field entries are not possible.

  • Skillbuilders modal dialog - condition for parent page dialog

    Hi
    When using this awesome plugin, I have a dynamic action on my calling page that deals with the selection from the dialog.
    It uses
    Select type:DOM Object
    DOM Object: document
    Condition: javascript expression
    ($v('P110_PROD_SEARCH') == 'BLAH')
    where the js expression is making sure I run the correct dynamic action, particularly when I have a few buttons on the page invoking different variations of the modal dialog.
    My first action is some javascript that interrogates the value of
    this.data.modalPageCloseValue
    this helps me make decisions in later actions on whether to run some pl/sql, for instance
    In light of a recent question of mine regarding a potential APEX bug (Display item with HTML affected by dynamic action and since we can't put conditions on actions - I was wondering if I could incorporate something into my dynamic action condition to stop the entire dynamic action from executing if modalPageCloseValue is null - but it seems to be out of scope?
    Scott

    Scott,
    You're current condition is:
    $v('P110_PROD_SEARCH') == 'BLAH'Just change that to:
    $v('P110_PROD_SEARCH') == 'BLAH' && this.data.modalPageCloseValueRegards,

  • My CS3/PS has started to change the cursor into a line of three VERY small icons when dragged over a picture or menu. Thus it is VERY difficult for instance to drag a layer in the layer list to the wastebasket - the cursor simply is too big for the waiste

    My CS3/PS has started to change the cursor into a line of three VERY small icons when dragged over a picture or menu. Thus it is VERY difficult for instance to drag a layer in the layer list to the wastebasket - the cursor simply is too big for the waistebasket icon. Even all other exact work is impossible.  Of course I have checked all the cursor presets but nothing seems to help. My OS is Windows7.

    Have you tried resetting Preferences?
    A logical next step would be to reset your Preferences.
    To reset Preferences:
    If Photoshop is already open on your screen, close it (Quit). Then hold down Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and start Photoshop.
    A dialog box will pop up asking if you want to delete the existing Preferences file (the "Settings"). Click Yes in the dialog box. The existing Preferences file will be scrapped and a new one will be created.

  • How do i change the cursor on a jtable header when clicked for sorting?

    here is my question, how do i change the cursor on a jtable header when I click the header for sorting?
    I think it is suppose to be in the fragment of code where the header listener is implemented for sorting, but I'm not quite sure what is the exact component that holds everything so that i can change the cursor...
    below is what I've tried, but it doesn't seem to work... thank you
    public void addMouseListenerToHeaderInTable(JTable table) {
    final TableSorter sorter = this;
    final JTable tableView = table;
    tableView.setColumnSelectionAllowed(false);
    MouseAdapter listMouseListener = new
    MouseAdapter() {
    public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
    TableColumnModel columnModel =
    tableView.getColumnModel();
    int viewColumn =
    columnModel.getColumnIndexAtX(e.getX());
    int column =
    tableView.convertColumnIndexToModel
    (viewColumn);
    System.out.println("column = "+column);
    if (e.getClickCount() == 1 && column != -1) {
    System.out.println("Sorting ...");
    Cursor oldCursor =
    tableView.getRootPane().getCursor();
    System.out.println("oldCursor.getType()
    = "+oldCursor.getType());
    if (oldCursor.getType() !=
    Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR){
    JComponent parentPane =
    tableView.getRootPane();
    parentPane.getContentPane().setCursor
    (new Cursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
    parentPane.setCursor(new Cursor
    (Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
    Cursor newCursor =
    parentPane.getCursor();
    System.out.println("newCursor.getType
    () = "+newCursor.getType());
    int shiftPressed = e.getModifiers(
    &InputEvent.SHIFT_MASK;
    boolean ascending = (shiftPressed == 0);
    //System.out.println("tableView.getRootPane()
    is "+tableView.getRootPane().getRootPane());
    sorter.sortByColumn(column, ascending);
    tableView.getRootPane().setCursor(new Cursor
    (Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR));
    //System.out.println("Done sorting");
    JTableHeader th = tableView.getTableHeader();
    th.addMouseListener(listMouseListener);
    }

    Hi,
    Try setting the cursor for the table header.
    table.getHeader().setCursor(Wait_Cursor);

  • Changing the Text Cursor for all Text Components

    Hi,
    The users have asked me to change the text cursor i.e, the vertical cursor for all the text components in our application.
    Is there a common way to change it , without having to call the setCaret method for each of the text components ?
    I saw that Cursor class has a Cursor type called TEXT_CURSOR. I'd like to be able to change that cursor.
    Any ideas, suggestions?
    Thanks!

    I was talking about the blinking vertical caret - sorry I got confused between the I-beam cursor and the caret(!).
    I wanted to change the caret color at the very least.
    Although preferably, I would like to make it a bit wider.
    I just found one solution to change the caret color across all the textfields using UIManager -
        Color caretColor = Color.GREEN;
        UIManager.put( "TextField.caretForeground", caretColor);
        UIManager.put( "FormattedTextField.caretForeground", caretColor);
        UIManager.put( "TextArea.caretForeground", caretColor);
        UIManager.put( "PasswordField.caretForeground", caretColor);Thanks

  • Opening more than one modal dialog for a single parent using Swings

    I have a parent frame to which I opened a modal dialog on that and after that there is a situation for me to open another modal dialog for the same parent window. If I have two modal dialogs opened for the same window, I am not able to click any of the modal dialog(i have only option to click the 'cross symbol' on the top of the dialog and come out). I am using JOptionPane
    Is is possible to open 2 modal dialogs for the same parent?

    Hi,
    try to use JDialog with the; there are different constructors for the JDialog one of them does not does not block the user input to other windows when shown. JDialog(Frame parent, boolean modal) in the case of modal assign it to "false" which means will not block ; refer to API for ModalityType enum class

  • Shortcut for moving between Panels on Modal Dialog boxes eg: Cell Options (OS X)

    Is there an existing shortcut for moving between the tabs of modal dialog boxes. For example Cmd+Opt+'B' brings up Cell Options dialog but that is actually the shortcut for the "Text" Panel how can I navigate (using keyboard keys) to the other Panels {"Strokes and Fills", "Rows and Columns", "Diagonal Lines"}.
    Note:
    I realise I can create shortcuts for the Table…> Cell Options…> Diagonal Lines items but these shortcuts will not work in the context of the Cell Options Modal Dialogue box.

    Hey Thanks.
    For those who come looking b/s they had the same question:
    As a bonus once one of these key sequences is pressed the tab heading area comes into focus so the arrow keys work for navigating tabs. So even for long list of Paragraph Style tabs which number greater than 10 still easy to navigate to them eleventh to someteenth ones.
