Creating a caption of a button on a toolbar

Dear all,
I was wondering if it is possible to create like a small caption on a button (which has an image icon) on a toolbar. Basically when the user places the mouse on the button, a small message appears explaining briefly what the button does.
Has anyone got any ideas as to how i can do this?
Your help would be very much appreciated.

  • How to create a 'Last Page Viewed' button

    I would like to create a last page viewed button which can be placed at the footer of each page of a document.  I currently write user manuals running into hundreds of pages which all contain hyperlinks at various points.  For example, a list of drawings when clicked will jump to whichever drawing has been selected. In this case I need to provide the user with a method of jumping back to the original list.  As this drawing may also have a link from elsewhere in the manual  the button should take the user to the last viewed page rather than any specific location.
    I hope this makes sense, any suggestions appreciated.

    This has nothing to do with HTML.
    In Form Edit mode, create your button on the first page, then go to its
    Properties, Actions tab, and add a new Mouse Up action with the "Execute a
    menu item" command. From the list that pops up select "View>Page
    Navigation>Previous View". Set the button's caption and other properties
    and then exit the Properties dialog. Now right-click the button and select
    "Duplicate Across Pages". This will allow you to create identical copies of
    this button on all the pages in the file.

  • How do I create more than one navigation button in Adobe Fireworks CS6?

    Hi guys, 
    Apologies if this comes across as very stupid question. I am a complete beginner with Adobe Fireworks and I'm in the process of creating my first website and I have got to the stage where I want to create navigation buttons and the book I have recommends using Adobe Fireworks so I have downloaded. My problem I have encountered is after I have created my first two state button what is the next step to create another two state button which has the identical size and colour of the previous two state button?
    Here is a brief rundown of the steps I have done to do the first two state button:
    1) Edit-Insert-New Button
    2) Chose the rectangle and then specified the width and height of the button and chose my stroke and fill colour
    3) Centred the button and used the text tool to put the button as a 'Home' button for my website. I then went on Window and Align in order to centre the text on the button
    4) I went on Select-Select All and then went on Windows-States to open the states panel. I right clicked on state 1 which is Up and clicked on copy to states. I then selected the next state radio button and clicked OK.
    5) I selected State 2 and slightly modified it by changing the colour of the text.
    6) I then clicked the back button to return to the main window.
    After this what step should I take to create my another button which has the same size, colour and text style as I have created for the first button? I tried just repeating these steps again but when I do step 1 it creates a new fireworks document which means I have to create the buttons size, colour, text style from scratch.
    Your help would be greatly appreciated guys and once again I do apologise if this comes across as a silly question.
    PS Please could you let me know if the steps I have taken to create the 1st two state button are correct

    Initially you need to configure via the provider's own web based control panel multiple e-mail accounts. If they don't have one, work it out with their customer support to have three distinct mail accounts. Then you can setup multiple logins by adding new accounts to mail. Since mail checks all accounts per Mac OS X user account simultaneously, it probably is best to use different usernames on the same internet provider. If you don't want mail to show all the information from all three mail accounts simultaneously, configure Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Accounts to have multiple users on your computer, and configure each of the internet service provider accounts for each separaet user on Mac OS X.

  • Creating a "Boot into Windows" button/shortcut

    Does anyone know if there is a way i can create a "boot into windows" button for linux.  I would like to put it on my linux desktop, so when i need to boot into windows, i can shutdown arch and boot right into windows, without having to go through grub and all that stuff.  I have read something about qemu, but dont really know if that will work.  Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    I hope you are using ext3 ...
    IMHO if you are using ext3 your problem is solved, create 2 menu.list one called menu.list.linux and the other menu.list.windows, put the default entry to the desired one and take the delay down to 0 along with hidemenu command ( boot into selected distribution instantly.. )
    On linux create the following script
    #!/bin/sh
    cp /boot/grub/menu.list.windows /boot/grub/menu.list
    [[ -f /boot/grub/menu.list ]] || exit 1
    shutdown -r now
    Now go to windows, install Ext2 FS ( http://www.fs-driver.org/ ) mount the boot partition and create a bat script
    copy E:bootgrubmenu.list.linux E:bootgrubmenu.list
    i dont remember if u can reboot from a bat script but that will do the trick...
    P.S: yea i know, it would be better to use one script and use sed/awk to patch it, but how will he patch it on windows ? personaly i don't know how :oops: so I took the idea of 2 menu.list(s)
    I am using EXT3 and i already have the Ext2fs installed, so i think those 2 scripts should do the trick!

    The button Ids are same for both the buttons in your code. You need to change it as BUTTON1, BUTTON2.

  • Is it an idea for Apple to create a fingerprint-scanning home button?

  • How to create authorisation object for save button please help in abap

    how to create authorisation object for save button please help in abap

    Hi
    In general different users will be given different authorizations based on their role in the orgn.
    We create ROLES and assign the Authorization and TCODES for that role, so only that user can have access to those T Codes.
    USe SUIM and SU21 T codes for this.
    Much of the data in an R/3 system has to be protected so that unauthorized users cannot access it. Therefore the appropriate authorization is required before a user can carry out certain actions in the system. When you log on to the R/3 system, the system checks in the user master record to see which transactions you are authorized to use. An authorization check is implemented for every sensitive transaction.
    If you wish to protect a transaction that you have programmed yourself, then you must implement an authorization check.
    This means you have to allocate an authorization object in the definition of the transaction.
    For example:
    program an AUTHORITY-CHECK.
    AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT <authorization object>
    ID <authority field 1> FIELD <field value 1>.
    ID <authority field 2> FIELD <field value 2>.
    ID <authority-field n> FIELD <field value n>.
    The OBJECT parameter specifies the authorization object.
    The ID parameter specifies an authorization field (in the authorization object).
    The FIELD parameter specifies a value for the authorization field.
    The authorization object and its fields have to be suitable for the transaction. In most cases you will be able to use the existing authorization objects to protect your data. But new developments may require that you define new authorization objects and fields.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/52/67167f439b11d1896f0000e8322d00/content.htm
    To ensure that a user has the appropriate authorizations when he or she performs an action, users are subject to authorization checks.
    Authorization : An authorization enables you to perform a particular activity in the SAP System, based on a set of authorization object field values.
    You program the authorization check using the ABAP statement AUTHORITY-CHECK.
    AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'S_TRVL_BKS'
    ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '02'
    ID 'CUSTTYPE' FIELD 'B'.
    IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
    MESSAGE E...
    ENDIF.
    'S_TRVL_BKS' is a auth. object
    ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '02' in place 2 you can put 1,2, 3 for change create or display.
    The AUTHORITY-CHECK checks whether a user has the appropriate authorization to execute a particular activity.
    This Authorization concept is somewhat linked with BASIS people.
    As a developer you may not have access to access to SU21 Transaction where you have to define, authorizations, Objects and for nthat object you assign fields and values. Another Tcode is PFCG where you can assign these authrization objects and TCodes for a  profile and that profile in turn attached to a particular user.
    Take the help of the basis Guy and create and use.
    Regards
    ANJI

  • I want to create a link (or a button)

    I want to create a link (or a button) from a cell in one sheet in a spreadsheet to another cell in a second sheet in the same spreadsheet. Some people call it a Hyperlink in Excel. So what happens when you click on the cell in the 1st sheet it takes you to the specified cell in the second sheet.  Does anyone know how to do this? Or is there a way to do this.
    I am using Numbers V3.2
    And my operating system is osx 10.9.3

    Numbers can only (at this time) link to URL (on the internet) or a file on your computer NOT an anchor in the document.  There are not buttons in Number on Mac OS X.
    You can post feedback to Apple using the menu item "Numbers > Provide Numbers Feedback"
    SGIII posted an Applescript to jump between sheets so maybe a quick search for that would help you script this behavior by jump to specific text (anchors):
    see here:
    Table navigation
    .  You may also be able to use search if you leave text like "ANCHOR_JUMP1" and "ANCHOR_THING2".  Then you can search for "ANCHOR"

  • Create first,prev,last,next buttons

    Hi, tell me the syntax to create any one of these button(first,prev,next,last).
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    You can create these buttons and can write your logic to query the required records, there is no such standard things provide by OA framework for this all these are custom so just create forur buttons with name as first, last nest and prev and write logic to fetch the first, last, next and previous records.
    you can make use of setCurrentRow method first set first record as current record and it will be displayed on your page after this on click of next button set next row as current row so it will display the next row on the page.
    For previous button again get previous row and set it as previous row and for lst button set last row as current row.
    I hope this is very simple to implement, let me know if anything you want to know.

  • Creating Closed Caption in Premiere Pro Cs6

    Hello,
    I am trying to create Closed Caption from the scratch in Premiere Pro CS6. I watched couple of videos of internet.
    But I dont see "Caption" menu and when I create a "New Item", it doesn't show me "caption" option to create new caption.
    Where I can find Caption Menu to create new closed caption in Premiere Pro Cs6 ?
    Thanks!

    You have a few choices -- there are two commercial products that I have used and know about, to create sidecar closed captioning files that are usable in PPRO and follow industry standarads for CC: CPC (www.cpcweb.com) makes a authoring program called 'MacCaption' for MAC and 'Caption Maker' for WIN. Also, a German company (www.zeitanker.com) makes a program called 'Annotation Edit'.

    I am trying to use .NET web services. I have followed the steps in the "Building a Web Service-Based Application in LabVIEW 7.0" document. My problem is that when I have selected a wsdl file in the .NET web service browser, the "Create Assembly..." button does not become enabled. I have tried a multitude of wsdl files, which looks ok to me, but nevertheless the button stays disabled. Any suggestions? Maybe I have missed some settings somewhere?
