Custom button to open navigation menu + scripts?

I just tried to make a custom button to open/close the navigation menu. Is there a custom script available for this? Does anyone know if there are any free scripts available for download/import for Adobe Captivate? Is there a way to do it within Captivate without custom scripts?
Best, Steve

Hi Steve,
No apologies, each app has its proper jargon, but wanted to be sure.
You do not need a script. Just point to your expand and collapse button in the Settings of the TOC. They will replace the tiny little double arrows that are the default icons. On the screenshot I highlighted that portion of the Settings, open the browse icon to point to your button.

How can I create a custom button for opening a form?

I have a parent form having child forms. In my main form I want to create custom buttons for opening child forms. I want to use master-detail form but there are more than one child forms, and in master-detail form I can only create one detail form. So I will create a form based on a table and in that form I will call the child forms by custom buttons. Can I do that?
Thanx,
Gulsah.

This can be easily done. First open up two instances of your Portal. In one window, you will need to go into your component you wish to link FROM. In the other window you will need to go into your component you wish to link TO. In the component you wish to link TO there will be a moduleid. Note this somewhere. Then, you will see an area that says: "Call Interface: Show". Click on this. (In the window you are linking to.). In this window, you will see a bunch of stuff. At the bottom you will see a URL call. This is the call you need to use. At the top, it explains each piece of the URL call. Just subsitute YOUR appropriate information into the URL call. In the form you wish to link FROM, create a button. Once you create this button, it will appear at the bottom, click on it and you will see an area to insert a Javascript. Click the onClick and insert:
//this is the variable you want to pass from one form to the other
get_field_name = getField(this.form,'COLUMN_NAME_IN_DATABASE');
//this is so you can open the "child" form
window.open('/pls/cc_prod/DAD_NAME.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=MOD_ID_HERE&p_arg_names=_sessionid&p_arg_values=&p_arg_names=COLUMN_NAME_IN_DATABASE&p_arg values='+GETFIELD_NAME+'&p_arg_names=_COLUMN_NAME_IN_DATABASE_cond&p_arg_values=%3D');
In the fourth tab, where it says, "....before displaying form" insert the following: (This will tell the form how to handle the getField function.)
htp.p('<script language="JavaScript1.3">
< !--
function getField(form,fieldName)
var objName = "";
var tmp = "";
var dAction = "";
var sel_idx = 0;
var cnt = 0;
var instance = 0;
var slicedName;
var fillData = new Array();
for (var i = 0; i < form.length; i++)
slicedName = form.elements.name.split(".");
tmp = slicedName[2];
instance = parseInt(slicedName[3],10);
if (!tmp)
continue;
objName = tmp;
if (objName == fieldName)
return form.elements[i].value;
//-->
</script>');
I hope this helps.

CRM 2013: Custom button to Open multiselect lookup with custom view

Hello Everyone,
Looking for your suggestions to implement the following requirement.
We want to implement a custom button on the sub grid of Custom Entity (Lets say, "PersonMapping"). The custom button should open another entity multi select lookup(Lets say, "Person"). Till here we could achieve by directly opening the
multi lookup url of the Person using "Window.showModelDialog". But in this lookup, we want to set our custom view as default view. Please suggest some solution to achieve this.
Thanks.

Hi,
First of all I would advice you to post this question in the new CRM 2007 forum.
We have created our own button that calls an URL in a separate window. Here is some coding from the method CALLBACK~GET_BUTTONS which may inspirere you:
CONCATENATE 'javascript:window.open'
              lv_http
              '","Print","resizable=yes,height=850,width=700,dependent=yes,status=1");'
         INTO lv_java.
ls_button-type     = cl_thtmlb_util=>gc_icon_print.
ls_button-tooltip = cl_wd_utilities=>get_otr_text_by_alias( 'CRM_UIU_BT_SALES_QUOT/SALESQUOT_PRINT' ).
ls_button-on_client_click = lv_java.
ls_button-page_id = me->component_id.
ls_button-enabled = abap_true.
APPEND ls_button TO rt_buttons.
CLEAR ls_button.
ls_button-text     = cl_wd_utilities=>get_otr_text_by_alias( 'CRM_UIU_BT_SALES_QUOT/SORDER_CREATEFOLLOW-UP' )."#EC NOTEXT
ls_button-tooltip = cl_wd_utilities=>get_otr_text_by_alias( 'CRM_UIU_BT_SALES_QUOT/SORDER_CREATEFOLLOW-UP' )."#EC NOTEXT
ls_button-on_click = 'FOLLOWUP'.                          "#EC NOTEXT
ls_button-page_id = me->component_id.
ls_button-enabled = lv_persistent.
APPEND ls_button TO rt_buttons.
CLEAR ls_button.

Configure custom query group in navigation menu

How do we configure custom query groups? Say for example: I have created a custom query group and added my custom query definitions to it. How do I configure this so that when I click on Contract Management Tab on the workbench, my custom query group is invoked?
I need to configure custom query group in navigation menu. Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Bindu Sharma

Hi Bindu,
As per my understanding, it is standard and query group cannot be added in the navigation but you can add your quries under Agreement and Claus Library.
Kindly refer the blog for the same: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-55733
Let me know if you need any other information.
Thanks,

Since Lion installation the remote control first generation, doesn't work as usually. On Leopard when I pushed the menu button, it opened a menu that showed music, films, photo. Now it doesn't work anymore. Is there anyone to explain me why this happen?

Since Lion installation the remote control first generation, doesn't work as usually. On Leopard when I pushed the menu button, it opened a menu that showed music, films, photo. Now it doesn't work anymore. Is there anyone to explain me why this happen? Thank you.

Sadly Snow Leopard was the last OS X to have Front Row and it is no longer offered in Lion or Mountain.
see > Farewell Front Row | Macworld
If you want, you can get it back with some tweaking.
see > Get Front Row for Mac OS X 10.7 Lion
or > Use Front Row In OS X Lion
Also note: that your remote should still be working for waking the Mac, volume control and iTunes...? If it is not, let us know for help with it.

Custom Buttons launch URL in new window

How can one get the Custom Buttons in a final chm help file
to launch the URL in a new window. When a supplimentary web page is
launched inside the chm using a custom button on the navigation
pane, it doesn't fit properly. Is there any way to launch the URL
in a new window?
Can I include some kind of HTML coding in the URL itself? If
so, what syntax?
The only options Robohelp gives you is entering the label and
URL

Deet,
It sounds like you're posting a RoboHelp HTML Help question
in the RoboHelp for Word Forum by mistake.
However, the answer is "No." The Custom Buttons can't open in
a new window like the links in topics do.
If you want a button to open in a new window, you have to use
a third-party product to make your own custom button. For more
information, see Pete Lees' response to a similar question in this
RoboHelp for HTMLHelp Forum thread:

Custom button to URL using target="_blank" RH9

Hi,
Ive got a custom button in my Navigation toolbar that links to a web site. I'd like the site to launch in a new tab/window, but I can't seem to use target="blank" when modifying the code in whskin_tbars.htm
Does anyone have a JavaScript action that would do this, or is it not possible?
It would be nice for the user not to lose the help when being sent to the site.
Mark

Sorted it after a bit of looking around (my JavaScript knowledge is a bit limited!). If anyone needs to do this, enter the following in the OnClick field:
window.open('http://www.mysite.com', '_blank');

Add a link to the navigation / menu bar

I would like to add a home button infront of the My Workspace button in the navigation/menu bar at the top of my Vibe page.
What jsp of file should I edit to achieve this?

I didn't look for that JSP, but used the branding for a high level "menu" AND wrote my own JSP to have a dynamic horizontal menu based on a portion of the workspace tree. The problem with changing Vibe's grey menu bar is that any upcoming updates might destroy your tweak. I have a few of those I need to keep in mind whenever an update or patch is done.
With my JSP adding, removing or modifying workspaces/folders in the identified branch automagically changes on the fly generated horizontal menu with the next refresh/visit of the landing page using the JSP. The menu can be for any branch of your workspace tree. If a visitor doesn't have access to a workspace or folder, the menu skips right over it automagically as well.
You can find this homebrewed JSP and key details at : Use this nifty JSP to make a dynamic horizontal menu from a branch of your workspace tree | Novell User Communities
It allows you to reorder the menu items and even drop some workspaces/folders from the menu with a simple trick explained in the article.
To see the JSP at work, go to CSDECSO - Conseil scolaire de district des écoles catholiques du Sud-Ouest or any of our 30 or so school web sites being implemented within our existing Vibe instance. You won't be able to change the tree branch, but you will see the menu. Some schools have slightly different menu choices, if you poke around long enough to find these differences. I just made them accessible to the public a few weeks ago.
Don't forget to use the integrated GoogleTranslate (generally near the Vibe printer icon in upper right corner beneath the branding and grey menu) to convert the bulk of our sites' content to any one of the 60 or so languages supported by Google. I have an article explaining how this was done as well. Of course, it is an automated translation, so don't expect perfection and don't be offended if it comes out the wrong way.

Custom RH9 WebHelp skin: Problem opening PDF file from custom button

Hi, I've been troubleshooting and checking forums trying to figure out how to get a PDF file to open from a custom button on my WebHelp skin. It worked for me once upon a time, but I changed something in the document and tried to upload the new version and it has errored out ever since.
I want to have the ability to open the PDF in a new window from the custom button (called 'Printable PDF' on my skin), so I am using the following custom JavaScript in the 'Click On' field of the the custom button's components: window.open('print_test.pdf','printWindow','menubar=0,resizable=0,width=900,height=500,scr ollbars=1'); I know the script is good because I have the same script for the Support custom button and it works great. The only difference between those scripts is the Support script calls an .html file instead of a PDF and the window names says 'supportWindow' instead of 'printWindow'.
I've tried deleting and recreating the custom button, changing the JavaScript with a developer's help, generating the help on another machine thinking it was a glitch with my browser (using IE8) or RoboHelp license, and combing the help files numerous times. I've also ensured that the PDF file is stored in the skin and project folders along with the other project files/folders. I've used previous versions of RoboHelp and had no problems attaching a Word document and PDF, so I'm wondering if this is a bug in RH9?? Especially since it worked for me initially. Any assistance and/or fresh ideas are welcomed! Thank you!

Hello again
Happy I was able to help.
MOTW is only present and affects things when you are running content off your local C drive. It's value is in preventing that Yellow Information Bar and all that from appearing when you are using IE. Once you publish content to a server and access it that way you are in a different security zone and MOTW has no influence either way. So there would be no adantage to enabling it before publishing to a server. The only reason you might want to consider enabling it would be if you were copying the WebHelp to everyone's hard drive and having them run it from their hard drives.
Make sense?
Hope so... Rick

How can I get Navigation Menu Button to remain in down state after clicked?

Hi there,
I'm messing about with a Navigation Menu and would like to click on the button and once clicked, the button remains in its down state. I can't seem to find a way of doing this? Any pointers?
Cheers

We would need to see your live page and code to offer more meaningful answers. But I wonder if what you really want is a "persistent page indicator" on your nav menu?

How can I open a URL from a Custom Button in a second help window?

I have a custom button, which currently opens a URL in a web
browser, using a redirect page. How can I change this so that it
opens in a second help window instead? If I understand some of the
posts I've read, it is possible by linking the button to a related
topics function but I've no idea how this is done.
As usual, your help is most appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Hi, ecoulyn,
You need to make a topic file like the one below the target
of the Jump button.
The onLoad function on the Body start-tag causes the Related
Topics command to fire when the topic file is loaded in the topic
pane. When specifying the file name of the topic to display in the
secondary window, you must always prepend it with the name of your
.chm file, followed by "::/". Otherwise, an error message appears
when the Jump button is clicked.

Create script for a button to open a PDF using AS3

I created a Flash movie in AS3 on the mac. I have several
navigation buttons, I want to be able to click on a button and open
a PDF. The finished movie will be an executable for the pc. I also
want to do the same for a .swf file.

Well, I think I got it working. The code I came up with seems a lot more simple than what I was experimenting with. I am pretty sure I did something earlier that was similar to this code but the current swf stayed with the player when the new one loaded, I am pretty sure the old swf is hiding underneath the new one but after some testing, the actual presentation is working as intended so I am waving the AS3 white flag and am accepting how this functions in its present state. I nearly gave myself a heart attack trying to get this simple function to work
Anyway, heres my "final" code. If anyone sees something that should be adjusted, please let me know.
play_iv.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, loadmain);
function loadmain(event:MouseEvent):void {
            var prevu_english:Loader = new Loader();
            prevu_english.load(new URLRequest("assets/PreVu - English.swf"));
            addChild(prevu_english);
Also, Thankyou Ned. You pointed me in the right direction. If I didn't keep looking at the loader class, I probably would have spent days doing trial and error until I got somewhere.
