Close button for Exe

Ok, there are scads of posts about Close button for a swf
file being problematic because of the browser being used.
Is it possible to get a close button to work for an exe?
The button in the playbar works, but not a button I have
created.
If not I'll preface my presentations with, to end this module
press the x button in the play bar... or something.
:o)
Time to find that wish list again.

Hi Kerry
For a Close button in a .EXE it should be pretty simple. Just
configure the project to close when it ends (Edit >
Preferences... > Project node > Start and End node). Then
make the last slide pretty short. Configure your button to point to
the last slide.
Cheers... Rick

Using Firefox 26. How do I get a close button for each tab at the top of the screen?

Some time ago, I had a close tab button for each tab on the top of the screen. I want that back. I have no additional add ons and the close tab is set to 1. Changing it to 2 does nothing.

Do you have installed this extension?
*Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
If you do not have the extension and also have no need for the feature that it provides then you can ignore this.
If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)
You can use one of these to start Firefox in Safe Mode:
*On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
*On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
*Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled

JTabbedPane with one close button for all tabs

Hello,
there have several solutions been posted for JTabbedPane subclasses that provide tabs with icons working as close buttons on each tab. I think this is not user friendly because the user can hit the close button accidentally when selecting a tab. And a "really close?" dialog is clumsy.
Therefore I prefer the Netscape browser style: There's only one close button rightmost of the tabs that closes the selected tab. But I don't have an idea how to achieve this.
Does anyone have a solution or an idea? Thanks in advance for help.

This solution has been posted several times and is not what I wanted. But I rewrote the thing so that
- the close buttons are on the right hand side of each tab so that it is conformant with Eclipse style, and
- the close buttons work only with a left click (see code below).
I just wonder how I can move the text a little bit to the left so that the appearence is a bit more balanced. Can someone help, please?

How to bring back the black dot on the red close button for edited/unsaved files?

I've ticked the box for "Ask to keep changes when closing documents" System Preferences / General. I'm operating within Mac OS 10.8.4 (Mountain Lion).
When I make changes to an open file in most every program, a black dot appears on the red close button in the top-left corner of the file's window. This convention goes back a decade to early Mac OS X, as I recall.
However, I don't see this behavior in a few applications lately, such as Xcode 4.6.3 or QuickTime Player 10.2.
Anyone know how to bring this functionality back?
Thank you.

Nobody knows? Not even administrators?
Please it would be really nice to have help on that to take all the benefit of the remote app.
Thank you very much in advance.

Close Button For the Rollover Sidelet: Size issue?

Hi all,
I am building a slide that incorporates a rollover sidelet.
Since the audience of my tutorial includes some older users, I
would like to make sure that all of the content is easy to view.
My question is this: can the 'close' button that appears in
the top right of the sidelet be enlarged? Currently, the sidelet is
set to 'stick' for an extended period of time: I would like users
who want to skip its content to easily close it, and then continue
the tutorial.
Thanks for the help!
AM

Welcome to our community, AM
Unfortunately we have no control over the size of the button.
You should probably make a request to the development team to
consider adding this in the future.

Internet Explorer CLOSE Button for OBPM 10GR3 Presentations

Hi all,
I am using OBPM 10GR3 presentations with a POPUP window.
I already have a close button to close the presentation. This is a Global Interactive Activity which displays the dashboards.
The Global Interactive Activity contains a screenflow and inside the screenflow I have a Interactive Component Call to call the presentation.
Now the presentation opens smoothly and everything is displayed.. When we hit the CLOSE button everything goes away and when we open it again it again comes back to the previous Interactive Component Call and restarts.
BUT
When we Close the window itself instead of using the CLOSE button of the presentations, and we re-open, we get the previous data.
This is because we do not hit the CLOSE button of the presentation instead hit the IE WINDOW CLOSE button on the top right hand corner besides the minimize maximize button.
Therefore the call is still inside the screenflow inside the Global Interactive Activity and therefore it waits for the user to hit the CLOSE button of the presentations otherwise does not close.
How can we resolve this issue?
How can we make sure, that if the user closes the IE WINDOW itself using the CLOSE button, it closes the presentation itself and when re-opened displays the previous presentation?

Hi,
First of all this is a training issue with the user. It is not advisable not to press the close button of the IE.
Nevertheles you can disable to close button of the presentaion.
You can remove the x from dialogs by doing this. Open the executionDialog.xhtml file in the <OraBPMEnterpriseHomeDirectory>\webapps\workspace\jsf\common directory (both Studio and Enterprise have this file).
Change the text on line 81 from this:
<oc:Dialog verticalAlign="top" offsetY="40" backColor="#D4E1EB" borderColor="#517B9E"
borderStyle="solid" borderWidth="1px" id="executionDialog#{componentBean.id}"
title="#{fn:getMsg('EXECUTION')}" broadcastName="executionDialog#{componentBean.id}"
maximized="#{componentBean.executionDialogMaximized}" width="#{componentBean.executionDialogWidth}"
height="#{componentBean.executionDialogHeight}" titleBarCssClass="bpmWorkspaceDialogHeader"
displayMaximizeButton="true"
modal="false" jsObjectName="executionDialog#{componentBean.id}">
to this:
<oc:Dialog verticalAlign="top" offsetY="0" backColor="#FFFFFF" borderColor="#FFFFFF"
borderStyle="solid" borderWidth="1px" id="executionDialog#{componentBean.id}"
title="#{fn:getMsg('EXECUTION')}" broadcastName="executionDialog#{componentBean.id}"
maximized="#{componentBean.executionDialogMaximized}" width="#{componentBean.executionDialogWidth}"
height="#{componentBean.executionDialogHeight}" titleBarCssClass="bpmWorkspaceDialogHeader"
displayMaximizeButton="true"
displayCloseButton="false" modal="false" jsObjectName="executionDialog#{componentBean.id}">
This change does a couple things. The addition of the text "displayCloseButton="false"" removes the x button that is causing the undesired results you're getting and setting the colors to #FFFFFF changes the light blue border around dialog boxes to white.

Close Button for Web Dynpro in an iView launched from UWL

Hi All, this sounds like such a simple thing but its really got me thinking.
Have a web dynpro application launching form the UWL into an iView (using the IViewLauncher, I'm using this so I can change some visual effects of the application with the iView). The application is the LeaveApprover application.
Need a close button on the confirmation screen. Have tried the following code called from a Close button:
     try {
          String url = WDURLGenerator.getWebResourceURL(wdComponentAPI.getDeployableObjectPart(),"closepage.html");
          TaskBinder.getCurrentTask().getClient().sendRedirect(url, 0);
     } catch (Exception e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
The closepage >>
function closeWindow()
{var currWindow = window.top;
currWindow.opener = window.top;
currWindow.close();
onload run the closeWindow function
This is a test file to close the window....
This works if I use the standard UWL launch but DOES NOT WORK with the iViewLauncher.
Also tried creating an exit plug in the interface view and calling it from my close button, but no luck with either.
Please help. Thanks Brian

Hi Brian,
we had a similar problem in the past. We wanted to call a normal Button placed on the WebDynpro View and the close script was saved in the km content in portal.
We solved it with an own project in NWDS including the html Files.
Follow the link and you find our solution. Hope it helps.
Re: Portal navigation problem

When I logoff & click close button for OWA , I don't get message w/ IE. "To complete logoff process & prevent other users from opening your mailbox, you must close all browser windows and exit browser application." Result is - I don't logout.

Small bug, there isn't a close button for my sidebar when using bookmarks.

I have selected a few of my bookmarks/shortcuts to open in the sidebar. When they do, there is no way to close the sidebar. The little bar at the top does not seem to show up with the "X" symbol. When I open in a new window, however, it is there.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in [[Safe mode]]:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled

Hiding FPM "Close" button in Portal/NWBC

Hello,
First some background, when you launch a WDA FPM application in the portal on of the standard buttons that it shows is the "Close" button. This button allows for the closing of the current browser window, When the FPM application is displayed inplace in the portal, this sort of behaviour is not very useful!
There was a thread : Re: Disable 'Close' button in Standard billing FPM Application in which Thomas Jung gave a detailed explanation of why this button was appearing and a very good suggestion on how to stop it.
I understand how I can hide this button - albeit a long winded process when the element is not available for personalisation unless you launch the application from NWBC or a portal (and with our dev portal not by default pointing to our configuration master client...) sigh...
I also understand that the WDA application is completely unaware that it is in an external portal window, or displayed inplace in the portal (although if it calls a new portal URL it can specify whether it should be displayed inplace or external).
What I don't understand is why this is the case - The portal has an API - Class AbstractNavigationConnectorNode method getShowType which returns whether the window is external or inplace, surely the WDA handler for the portal could query this and expose it to the WDA frameworkn through the interface IF_WD_PORTAL_INTEGRATION. Then it would be simple to hide the close button for inplace windows and show it for external windows.
Given that the portal allows users to launch whichever pages they want externally (although I tend to always turn off this option) it is very hard (i.e. not possible) for us to know for sure if the application will be launched inplace or externally - so "hard coding" the visibility of the close button by personalising the application is not a great solution.
WDJ is aware of the inplace/external nature of the portal window that it is running in and applications do code to support this. It seems to me an omission that WDA does not have this same level or knowledge of the portal environment that it is running in.
Are there any plans to extend the IF_WD_PORTAL_INTEGRATION interface to support this? Or are WDA applications destined to a less informed life than their WDJ cousins.
Sorry for the rant like nature of this post - but I hope that someone from SAP might be able to help me understand this problem.
Cheers,
Chris

Hi Chris,
Sorry about the late reaction. I think that is because of the nature of the question and the person who is asking. You are one of the expert people who are in SDN to help people. If you ask such questions then it is mostly stay not answered :).
I have encountered this problem earlier this year and also we have had several emails between Thomas Jung. We are not coming further than to follow Thomas suggestion to Disable the close button in Portal.

"Close" button on tab minimizes FF4?

When there are enough tabs open, the last tab covered over the "Min", "Max", "Close" buttons for FF4; and clicking the "Close" button on that last tab minimizes FF4 instead of closing the tab out! Bug?

Set the pref browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab to false on the about:config page to prevent closing the last tab from closing the browser and make a close button appear if only one tab is open.
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

Close button on tabs have stopped appearing

When you hover over the title of a tab the close button should appear. This feature now longer works so I am having to right click the tab and then select the "close tab" option.
Any idea how I can get the close button to reappear?
Many thanks in anticipation of an answer!

Light box close button

I am trying to create a second closure button for my lightbox widget and I am not sure if this is even possible. I was wondering if anyone had any solution. I am currently using the normal close button for a certain function but my client would like another regular close button. You can go to http://www.mdsclutching.com/index.html

You can include close button in lightbox composition which would show up with lightbox display, we cannot use 2 close buttons or copy close button for function on same lightbox.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Cap2, exe close button not working

I'm publishing to an exe, and I have a disclaimer page where
I want the user to choose between agree & disagree. Agree is
easy, I added a button, on success: continue. With Disagree, I want
the whole project to close, so I looked up the code for making a
close button with the following typed in the javascript box
"javascript:window.close()". Now, when I click on the button it
opens Internet Explorer and then displays the following error
message: "Internet Explorer cannot download . Unspecified error."
So I ran through the forums looking for some help & I've
since changed the javascript to show "window.close()", then
"windows.close()", and still, same error message & the project
still doesn't close.
What am I missing?
Thanks.

Hi B Ellefson
Are you sitting down? I hope so because this one is pretty
easy.
Just click Project > Preferences... > Start and End tab
and configure the action for when the movie ends to be "Close
project". Then configure that "Disagree" button to simply jump to
the last slide. You might even wish to make that last slide really
short from a timing perspective. Maybe .1 seconds or so.
With this approach, your .EXE should close quickly, quietly
and consistently.
Cheers... Rick
