Compare PDF: How to suppress compare dialog box programmatically...

Hi,
We are using Acrobat 8.0. Using Visual Basic, we are opening two PDF files in Acrobat 8.0 professional.We are comparing those two documents using MenuitemExecute(DIGSIG:CompareDocuments ) command and generating the side by side comparison file programatically.
During this process after executing the command "MenuitemExecute(DIGSIG:CompareDocuments )" adobe is displaying "Compare Documents" dialog box where the user need to click OK on it in order to continue with the comparison.
My requirement is to suppress the dialog box and automate the process. Our application is developed in Visual basic.
Could you please let me know how to suppress the dialog box using Visual basic. Is it possible using VB or any alternatives for this. Because we need to compare many PDF documents so clicking OK every time requires user intervention.
Thanks for your help in advance.

How to launch a dialog box programmatically

I'm working on my first ADF form and my first Java program (the backing bean) and I need some help with how to launch a dialog box from the backing bean instead of a button.
Here is the background of what I am doing: I created an ADF form whereby a user chooses an Excel spreadsheet from their local drive and submits it. The backing bean reads through the spread sheet fields, does some validations, etc. then writes out a fixed length file on the weblogic server. This part works fine. But I wanted to add a dialog in after the spreadsheet is read but before the file is written that displays the number of records that were read and give them the option to hit OK to continue or Cancel which will stop execution of the form and maybe display a cancelled msg. Not sure how to do this part. How can I invoke the dialog from the code? Do I still need to have a button to get an action listener, but just not display it on the form? I'm a bit confused on this part. Any advice or examples would be appreciated. Thanks.

here popup involves

    public void DisqualifyListener(DialogEvent dialogEvent) {
        // Add event code here...
        DialogEvent.Outcome outcome = dialogEvent.getOutcome();
        if (outcome == DialogEvent.Outcome.ok)
           RichPopup popup = this.getPp1();
           RichPopup.PopupHints hints = new RichPopup.PopupHints(); //empty hints renders dialog in center of screen
            popup.show(hints);

How to suppress print dialog box from popping up under a condition

Greetings...
There may be a better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do, so I'm open to outside-the-box suggestions.
I have a pretty simple page which lists a set of statuses and descriptions of each. The user can edit these status flags and their descriptions on the page as well. When I view the page in "printer friendly" mode, I see a nice simple report of what the statuses are and their descriptions. Everything works great so far.
In our work request system built in ApEx, there's a page where someone can view the details of a work request, including the current status. When someone clicks on the help of that item, what I'd love to do is simple show the "printer friendly" version the status page mentioned above in a pop up window. My problem is that the print dialog box automatically shows up when a page is displayed in "printer friendly" mode and I do not want this to happen in this case.
I see the javascript code in the Printer Friendly page template which causes the print dialog box to show up automatically, but I don't want to remove it in the template just for this one case. This would suppress the print dialog box on all "printer friendly" page views and the users are used to it showing up when they ask to print the page.
I guess I could create a custom request to pass to the master status page which would pretty much do everything that the "printer friendly" mode is doing, but that seems like a lot of work when I'm so close to using something that is built in.
Am I not seeing some simple other way of doing it or perhaps asking too much? Any suggestions?
Shane.

Hi,
I think you have to call the FM GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS and pass NO_DIALOG = 'X'.
Something like:
CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
    EXPORTING
      no_dialog      = 'X'
    IMPORTING
      out_parameters = ls_params
      valid          = lv_valid
    EXCEPTIONS
      OTHERS         = 1.
NEW-PAGE PRINT ON PARAMETERS ls_params NO DIALOG.
* Display Table
lr_table->display( ).
add: Spool numbers can be found in TSP01 or in system field SY-SPONO available in the submitting program...
Hope it helps,
Kr,
m.

I did not say that AVCommand simulates pressing enter - it is used to automated methods by pre-filling options and not showing the dialogs. Please read the documentation on the AVCommand methods.
You should also note that I said AVCommand is only available to plug-ins, which means it will not work with a VB.NET application.
SendKeys is a basic VB.NET command, it is not part of the Acrobat SDK in any way. Here is Microsoft's documentation on SendKeys. Again I will state that using this method is NOT a good idea for a production environment.

Scripting question: how to suppress Aperture dialog when exporting?

Hi Forum,
I started to write an AppleScript for Aperture to perform a backup. The standard backup procedures of Aperture are not quite right for me so I decided to write my own using AppleScript.
One question which arised was how I can supppress the dialog box which Aperture opens when an export could not be done because of a missing master. I want to suppress the dialog box and instead get an error returned from Aperture into AppleScript. is that possible?
Koen van Dijken

Hello Koen,
have you solved your problem by now? For me the following does work:
I does not seem to be possible to set Aperture to suppress the warning, so catching the error in a "try" clause will not help. The best option is to check, if the master image is online, before trying to export and skipping the offline images, like in this example, see: http:/dreschler-fischer.de/scripts/ExportMastersWithoutWarning.scpt.zip
on run {}
-- export masters, but check it they are online before trying to export
-- skip if not online
          set exportFolder to (choose folder with prompt "Choose an export folder")
          tell application "Aperture"
                    set imageSel to (get selection)
                    if imageSel is {} then
                              error "Please select an image."
                    else
                              repeat with i from 1 to count of imageSel
                                        try
                                                  set onlne to get online of (item i of imageSel)
                                                  if onlne then export {item i of imageSel} naming folders with folder naming policy ¬
                                                            "Project Name" to exportFolder
                                        end try
                              end repeat
                              return imageSel
                    end if
          end tell
end run

Portal 7.3 masthead customization - How to remove Logoff dialog box "Are you sure you want to logoff?"

Portal 7.3 masthead customization - How to remove Logoff dialog box "Are you sure you want to logoff?"
I have recently upgraded our portal to 7.3 sps10 and we are using the Ajax framework
I have a requirement to Remove the Logoff Dialog box "Are you sure you want to logoff?"
I am able to Import masthead.war into NWDS and get the project ready for development with the appropriate jar and libraries.
I am able to deploy the project also. I need help finding How to turn this dialog box off and just log the user off. I was able to accomplish this in Classic frame work page HeaderiView.jsp.
I have looked at afpmasthead.org.sj and masthead.jsp. I am not a js/jsp developer.
I can see the logoff dialog box being created but I am having trouble finding the logoff code.
Please advise me on the code changes required to remove the Logoff dialog box "Are you sure you want to logoff?" from the Ajax framework.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Sarah

Thank you Troy for your Helpful Threads.
Problem Solution:
Followed the thread on How to download and change AFP Masthead on SAP Portal 7.3
Located the file which contains the logoff code from thread http://scn.sap.com/thread/3265584
The File with the Logoff coding in it is a Javascript file afpmasthead.js
Identified logoff code without dialog box using this thread https://scn.sap.com/thread/3307601
NovaDialogBox.performLogout(); (perform logoff)
I was able to remove the Logoff dialog box Do you really want to logoff? And replace it with logging the user off.
afpmasthead.js All the code is on 1 line, To fix this go to -->Source -->Format
Comment out the following lines of code and replace with logoff code
logoffLinkElement.onmouseup= function(aS) {
logoffLinkElement.onmouseup= function(aS) {
NovaDialogBox.performLogout();

Start by going through the Swing tutorials linked from the topic listing page of the [_Swing forum_|http://forums.sun.com/forum.jspa?forumID=57]. When you are confident of being capable of displaying a dialog with the components you need, correctly layed out, check out the API for GraphicsEnvironment#getAllFonts and Font@canDisplyUpTo.

HT1589 This doesn't work in Windows 8. Anybody know how to get this dialog box in Windows 8?

This doesn't work in Windows 8. Anybody know how to get this dialog box in Windows 8?

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

I am creating a database application in APEX 4.0. In that application a page requires a dialog box, which has to appear when a user clicks on Submit button.

Hi Kiran
Thanks for responding,
Sorry for providing the complete details.
Provided link is much more helpful, but its not meeting my needs. My requirement is to just show a popup box after the user clicks on submit button.
Saying 'Thank you for answering' if he is done with all questions or if he has more questions to answer pop up with different message 'You have more questions to answer'.
In both the cases page as to get submitted when clicked on Submit button.
Thanks in advance

How to insert a dialog box which prompt the user enter the general information in the SDI application?

Im using the SDI application to build a system and now i would like to insert a dialog box which allow the user to enter the general information about themselves and then it will be saved into a text file. How to insert the dialog box and show the dialog box at the beginning of the program.

Hi Lee,
The easyest way to achieve this is to declare an object of your dialog box derived class (e.g. CUserInfo, public CDialog) into the InitInstance method of the main application class.
Depending on the behavior you want you can place the code before dispatching the commands from command line (in which case the main frame of the SDI application will not be shown), or after, in which case the UserInfo dialog box will be shown over the main application window as modal.
The code snipped bellow can be more helpfull:
BOOL CSDIApp::InitInstance()
AfxEnableControlContainer();
// Parse command line for standard shell commands, DDE, file open
CCommandLineInfo cmdInfo;
ParseCommandLine(cmdInfo);
//prompt user for data
CUserInfo dlg;
if (dlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
//do something here with the data
else
return FALSE;//i.e. quit the application if the user presses the 'Cancel' button
// Dispatch commands specified on the command line
if (!ProcessShellCommand(cmdInfo))
return FALSE;
// The one and only window has been initialized, so show and update it.
m_pMainWnd->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
m_pMainWnd->UpdateWindow();
return TRUE;
Hope this helps,

How to suppress Compare documents dialog in Acrobat 8 using Visual Basic

Hi,
We are having one utility developed in VB and we are using this to compare PDF documents with Adobe 8.0.
Before comparing the PDFs,first Compare Documents dialog is displayed and then we have to say OK. Then,
mismatches between the documents is shown. I want to suppress the Compare dialog box and is there anyway
in VB to suppress the compare dialog and to click on OK programmatically.
Thanks for your Help in advance.

No there is nothing in the API that allows you to automate the pushing of buttons in the UI. You could try and use something like SendKeys to see if it worked but a word of warning. Doing so would be a real HACK and totally unsupported.

How to avoid the dialog box "SAVE, Open, Cancel" When we take a pdf print.

I have an item entry form. User select different items and then submit the order by pressing submit button.
I want that when the user click the submit button he is directet to the print preview page. I have done that and it is running fine but the issue is when user click on the submit button the dialog box appear showing file name and an option to save or open the file. I want to avoid that dialog box and I want that the file is opened directly.
In shot I want that the user goes directly to the open file option instead of giving him the options.
Thx,

Hello Syed,
I thought this is a browser behavior. In Firefox it asks the first time what I want to do.
If I select open and select the checkbox to do that always like that, it's opening directly.
I searched a bit in javascript, use an iframe or specify different targets, the behavior is the same, unless I check the checkbox I get the dialog box. Maybe there's a workaround, but I didn't find that yet.
Regards,
Dimitri

How can I supress a Windows dialog box programmatically in LabView?

I am trying to automatically supress or close a windows dialog box that appears when a LabView program crashes. I have a restart program that will automatically reopen the program and I don't want to have to click on the program error window that results from the crash. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks so much for your time!

The program rarely crashes - it is running in the background for the entire day and we just want to ensure that it is monitored and restarted in case of a crash. We also don't want the user to be bothered with the program error messagebox that pops up saying that an error log is being created. The program crashes when too many programs are running at the same time - so the problem isn't a huge one. I was just wondering if it was possible to stop this program error message from appearing by programmatically selecting the okay button or by suppressing the message entirely?

InDesign CS5 crashes when trying to export a PDF and/or a Warning dialog box appears!

Just bought a new macbook pro 15" non retina the other day and the SAME version of InDesign CS5 that was running on my 2010 iMac is now crashing each time I get a Warning dialog box and/or try exporting a PDF?!??!?! How was this NOT an issue before and now is??? Running the same Lion 10.7.4 as well....
Holding the alt key while deleting a page does help it not prompt the warning dialog box, but no help to exporting a pdf...
So guessing this is a Apple issue and we need an update or??
I am only using Fontbook and have NOT even added any new fonts yet, practically bare bones mac still with just CS5...
What is also weird is that the warning dialog boxes are always BLANK and have no text on them, like there is a font issue??
I've cleared the system font cache, reset InDesign prefs, reset PRAM and NVRAM, re-installed InDesign and updated to 7.0.4...
This is madness....please help me in the name of all that is good.
Crash:
http://pastebin.com/DYv0vwNQ

figured it out:
- power off mac and turn back on while holding down Command + R (dont do it on an external keyboard just to be safe)
- choose the re-install Lion option (I'm sure there is another way to re-install Lion, this is just the way I did it, not saying its the best or only method)
- DO NOT INSTALL MACBOOK (Mid 2012) Software Update 1.0 - THIS SCREWS ADOBE UP!
