Ctrl-Click Window Settings

Hello All,
I'm working on an animation in Flash, and I'm doing a lot of right-clicking at the bottom of the screen when working on the timeline. It's really annoying to have to roll-over the down arrow and wait for the window to scroll every time. I was just curious if there was a way to set the ctrl-click window to appear higher, displaying everything, rather than forcing the user to wait for the scroll.
I know I can just change the location of the timeline, but I like it down there.

So what I'm getting is that there's no way to set the ctrl-click menu to display all items rather than scroll?
I don't see how you'd do it. It would have to be a choice in the application preferences, if it can even be done. A contextual menu is going to appear according to Apple's programming guidelines and API's. If it has room to go down, it will.
The only way to fix it is a hack that requires even more work?
It's not a hack. Just grab the top gray bar of the entire Flash workspace and move it down on the screen so part of the application window is off the bottom of the screen, but still showing the timeline dashes. Having the timeline that close to the bottom of the screen forces the contextual menu to open in an upward manner. There is no other way to do what you want.

Hyperlink + ctrl click opens the page in new tab in my website. it should open it in the same window of my website

When i do a ctrl+hyperlink click in my website running in firefox, it opens up in a new tab, I dont want the ctrl+hyperlink click to open in new tab or new window. It should open in the same browser. (works as required in IE 7)
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Ctrl+left click on a link or bookmark will open in a new tab. That is a standard Firefox keyboard shortcut. Middle-click will do the same (Middle-click = press the scroll wheel). On the following page, scroll down to "Web Navigation" or Find (Ctrl+F), enter "Ctrl+lef" (without quotation marks) in the Find box. Read the footnote 4 about how to change from background tab to foreground tab.
See: http://www.7is7.com/software/firefox/shortcuts.html
To open a link or bookmark in the currently active tab, simply click on the link or bookmark. Your current tab will be over-written with the new link or bookmark.
The following page shows the shortcuts for IE7. Click "Working with tabs". It shows Ctrl+click will "Open links in a new tab in the background" and on the next line, it shows CTRL+SHIFT+click will "Open links in a new tab in the foreground".
See: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Internet-Explorer-keyboard-shortcuts#
Maybe you have installed something to change the shortcuts on your installation?

The ctrl+click method of opening a link in a new tab has changed to opening in a new window. How do I open in a new tab with a hotkey/change the hotkey back?

This is consistent and started with the beta.

I have no problem with {Ctrl + Click} opening a link in a new Tab in 4.0b9. And {Shft + Click} still opens a link in a new Window.
Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

ITunes on Windows 7 ceased expanding miniplayer after Ctrl click on thumbnail artwork.

During playback, iTunes used to expand the miniplayer album art, to full screen size, when holding the Ctrl key and clicking on the thumbnail at the top of the screen. Now the same Ctrl + click has no effect. However, after doing it, I get a double icon in the task bar, one for the complete iTunes and another for the full size mini player, except that the full size mini player cannot be found anywhere, only that icon in the task bar. And sure enough, I can click on the x at the corner of this "ghost" icon, and the icon will close, but the explandable album art never shows up. The whole thing is as if iTunes still thinks that it's working just fine, but it's not. This looks like a corrupted registry key would cause it. I tried uninstalling iTunes, rebooting the computer, and reinstalling, but this didn't help. Is this a known issue? Any ideas how to fix it? Thanks for any support.

Same problem here! Driving me nuts that it is somehow "running" as shown in the task bar, but it is not accessible in any way.

Can't Ctrl+Click My Threads to open in new tab (Chrome)

Today I find that I can't Ctrl+Click "My Threads" or "My Forums Threads" or "My Profile" (any of those options in the Quick Access menu) to open it in a new window in Chrome. Right click and Open in new tab works
fine, but the Ctrl+Click doesn't work.
This is crippling. Must be fixed.

How do I open multiple locations from the History after selecting them with Ctrl+click?

Let's say I want to read some of the Mother Jones and Alternet articles I'd linked to from e-mails over the past in two months. I open my Firefox history. I do a search of the history libary to get a list of all the relevant locations. Then I use Control+click to select the few articles I want to read. I'd think Ctrl+O would open all those selected, but it doesn't. There must be a more efficient way than what I'm doing now, which is to open a new tab in the browser window, go to history, double click one line, wait for the page to load; open a new tab, go back to the history search results, click on a new location, wait as it loads, repeat.

Where are you viewing your History? 
Have you tried the History Sidebar? {Ctrl + H} 
You can {Ctrl + Click} the pages you want to open in new Tabs, one at a time. 
Also, if you have your Options > Tabs pref deselected for '''When I open a new tab, switch to it immediately''', it might be less distracting with all those pages opening in the background.

How can I force Firefox to override javascript when opening links with ctrl+click?

There are certain sites that always open up a link in the active window despite said links being opened by ctrl+clicking it. Basically what happens is that a java script on the site forces the active window to load the link while at the same time Firefox follows the ctrl+click command and loads it in a new tab. You end up with two tabs with the same information and always have to go back in your original tab to be able to open other links.
Usually you can open the link the way you want by right-clicking and selecting 'Open Link in New Tab' but for some reason ctrl+click is treated as if it was a regular click. How can I stop this from happening and force Firefox to ONLY load the new tab?
This problem is not specific to the version of Firefox I'm using or the operating system, but seems to be caused by java script on the site. Disabling java scripts makes the problem go away but sometimes it also disables the sites.

If you're trying to protect your browser from hackers, I'd recommend setting up a master password for your saved passwords. Other than that, your anti-virus and firewall are responsible for keeping your computer safe.
If you're trying to protect your browser from someone else (i.e. somebody who can physically use the computer) just lock your entire computer with a password. If someone else has to use it, you could try letting them use the guest account.

Safari 2.0.4 Ctrl-Click not working

Hi,
I have searched and searched for an answer for this, but no luck so far.
I'm on 10.4.10 with Safari 2.0.4 (419.3). Somehow, I've lost the ability to ctrl-click on a link in Safari, doing it does nothing. The status bar at the bottom of the window says "Display a menu for <URL>", but the menu very doggedly does not display...
This happened weeks and weeks ago, and I've been searching for an answer to no avail. Today I was on another Mac and opened Safari and tried ctrl-clicking on a link and I got the expected menu. I love it when it works.
I have just tried swapping the Preview plugin for the Adobe reader plugin, and that didn't help...
Does any body have any ideas what might be wrong?
Many thanks,
bk

Hi
Back to my earlier suggestions in this order:
Reapply the 10.4.10 Combo Update. Do not use the computer while the Update is running. After the restart, "repair permissions" using Disk Utility in your Utilities folder. Start Safari.
If no change, then I suggest reinstalling Safari 2.0.4. Here's how to do it:
Have a look at this Apple article for installing other software, including Safari, from the Tiger DVD - see the section titled More custom reinstallation options with Mac OS X 10.4.
Other Steps
Move the Safari.pkg file in the HD>Library>Receipts folder to the trash.
As a precaution, prior to reinstalling Safari, move your Safari folder, found via the Finder in your Home Folder>Library to the Desktop. It has your bookmarks, history etc. Once the reinstall is completed, move the folder back to its original location writing over the newly created folder.
Remember too, the version of Safari you install will be specific to the Version on your installer DVD. Therefore, run Software Update and see if Safari updates appear. If not, reapply the 10.4.10 combined update to bring Safari up to the current version.
"Repair Permissions" via Disk Utility in your Utilities folder when you are finished.

Clicking "webcam settings" causes skype to crash

Running windows 8 desktop skype, i'm not using that metro "app" nonsense.
It's fully updated, logitech camera drivers fully updated. Every time I click "Webcam Settings" in Skype > Options > Video Settings, the program immediately stops responding and closes.
I NEED to go into webcam settings, for one it's way, way too dark everytime I restart my computer because the settings reset and I'm back to looking like i'm sitting in the dark. This has been happening for a very long time, my solution was to sign into Windows Live Messenger and using the settings window there (It does NOT crash WLM.... I'm extremely disatisfied with the news that WLM is shutting down in favour of this..) and then calling my coworker on skype.
I've tried re-installing skype, I even got a new hard drive and fresh installed Windows + all my video games to an SSD, I put skype on there as well thinking maybe it would fix my issue but it did not. Same problem.

Hi,
I'm having the exact same issue -- Skype crashes whenever I click on webcam settings. The video is very red-shifted, so I want to be able to adjust it. I wonder if you have any suggestions, but I have different hardware.
I recently bought a Lenovo Y580 laptop, running Windows 8, but I'm using Skype Desktop, *not* Metro. The laptop comes with a built-in camera. Device Manager show it as:
Lenovo Easy Camera
Manufacturer: Dmax
The driver is, which I updated, is:
Driver Provider: Realtek
Driver Date: 9/28/2012
Driver Version: 6.2.8400.10189
Based on other comments in the forum I went to the Windows Event Viewer after the crashes. Here's what it says. RtCamX.dll is part of the driver files:
Faulting application name: Skype.exe, version: 6.1.0.129, time stamp: 0x50ec1757
Faulting module name: RtCamX.dll, version: 1.0.1.118, time stamp: 0x50654128
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x0000c970
Faulting process id: 0x116c
Faulting application start time: 0x01cdfd0c6838c372
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe
Faulting module path: C:\windows\SYSTEM32\RtCamX.dll
Report Id: aeab946c-68ff-11e2-be7c-20689d7ab340
Faulting package full name:
Faulting package-relative application ID:
Any suggestions on getting this to work would be greatly appreciated. By the way, I have a Logitech C510 webcam from my desktop that works just fine with Skype on the laptop, but it would be nice to be able to use the built-in camera and adjust it.
Thanks.

The print window settings dialog box will not come up

When attempting to print a website, I need to select the option to print as laid out on the screen as described in this how-to: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-print-websites#w_print-window-settings.
However, I have attempted to get this dialog box to come up on 4 different machines that all have Firefox 32 installed and updated. The operating systems of the 4 machines were 2 Windows 7 64bit, 1 Fedora 20 64bit, and Windows 8.1 64bit.
It appears that using the print button launches the print preview screen. Pressing CTRL+P does not open this page either. Is this something I need to change in about:config? I already reset all the printing settings and reset firefox on these machine to see if that was the issue.
Please let me know how to correct this behavior.

On Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 systems, it does not come up. I did try disabling the pop-up blocker, but it just won't load the dialog box. It is driving me a bit crazy.
And Office 365 does put the email out to a new window, but it still has frames :(. Microsoft's support forum advised setting IE and other browsers to print as displayed. The issue is I can't seem to figure out how to get that dialog box to come up. I have tried disabling the native dialog box in about:config, but didn't have any success with that either

How do I delete large number of duplicates on my Itunes w/o Ctrl+Click

I have a large number of duplicates that were loaded onto my ITunes and I would like to delete them. So far the only way I have found is to go down the list one at a time and Ctrl+Click and then delete. Since Itunes can designate duplicates, is there a function for removing all the duplicates before I synch my ipod???
Windows XP

Itunes can't mass delete duplicates, but one of the forum member has written a script to do it, see:
http://home.comcast.net/~teridon73/itunesscripts/
If you prefer to go commercial take a look at iTsync

Need help with finding a workaround: the shotcut ctrl+click opens 2 tabs in my case

Hello!
I have several links with an onclick event, which contains some javascript handling and window.open() after it, and they have attribute href="javascript:void(0);" as well.
When user try Ctrl+click Firefox opens him 2 tabs: the first one with "right" content and the second with javascript:void(0).
I've tried to set href="#" and in this case Ctrl+click works as I want, but on the original tab the user is redirected by the browser to the top of the page. The empty attribute (href="") also results 2 tabs. Maybe there is some value of the href attribute with which everything will work as I want? I've fed up with this and will be appreciated a lot if you help. Thanks.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== User use Ctrl+click

I won't be searching thru all that code to try to find something relevant to your post, but if you are using a Loader to load the images, you can get the width and height as soon as the loading is complete using the loader object (loader.width, loader.height). You just need to wait until loading is complete, so you'll need a listener for that if you don't have one already.

WDJ - Right click- User settings , not working at all times

We are working on SAP Netweaver 7.4.
We have developed WDJ applications in PO server and are displaying the application in SAP EP using the remote iview method.
Our requirement: We need to show the users , right click ->User settings so that they can modify the view.
Steps taken: The allowuserpersonalisation has been set to True.
Issue:
Not all of the remote WDJ application are showing the User settings.
For e.g: If it is working for WDJ application A, it is not working for WDJ application B.
Here is where it gets more confusing !!!:
If role A contains WDJ application A and role B contains WDJ application B.
then:
1) if WDJ application B is assigned to the role A, then the User settings start working for it
2) if WDJ application A is assigned to the role B, then the User settings still work for it
3) if WDJ application B is assigned to the role C, then the User settings do not work.
Can anyone please help?

Hi,
normal right mouseclick is disabled as of 710 I guess, I assume you mean the ctrl+alt+right mouse click, right?
Also , I am not sure I fully understand your A-B-C example. Can you please elaborate it in a less abstract way? Can you show concrete examples what is not working regarding the end-user personalization? Are all wd java applications running in a non-standalone way when you test end-user personalization?
Cheers,
Ervin
