Customizing context menu in Bookmarks toolbar

I would like to change the key I need to press in order to open a web page in a new tab. When I right-click on a saved page in the Bookmark Toolbar, I can press '''W''' in order to open in new tab. I would like to change this to the '''T''' key, just like the context menu from a link on an already opened page. The '''T''' key isn't assigned to anything else in the Bookmark Toolbar context menu, so I believe this can be done.

The "T" in the context menu of the Bookmarks Toolbar is reserved for the Cut operation, so can't be used. 
If you cut a bookmarks by accident then use Organize > Undo (Ctrl+Z) in the bookmarks manager.

Creation of Custom context menu in CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT

Hello all,
I need to develop a custom context menu in the Text Editor.
I am using the CONTEXT_MENU event of the class
CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT for the same.
It is giving a short dump with an exception 'empty_obj' in the method
CL_CTXMNU_MGR=>CREATE_PROXY.
Please help.

Hello Tejas
The following sample report ZUS_SDN_TEXTEDIT_CTXMENU shows how to trigger context menus in text editor. Please note that the editor must be set enabled.
If you inactivate subroutine SET_REGISTERED_EVENTS the new context menu function will no be displayed. Thus you need to register the event for context menu handling.

Black background in Menu and Bookmarks Toolbar

The background colour for the Menu and Bookmarks Toolbar is black and this happens no matter what theme or persona I am using. All the other toolbars will change with the theme but not the two above
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== upgraded FF 3.6

Did you try to disable (uninstall) the Personas extension?
Are you using the Persona and the theme at the same time?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")
If you have many extensions then you can first enable half of the extensions to test which half has the problem.
Continue to divide the bad half that still has the issue until you find which one is causing it.

How to Get List Item in Custom Context Menu?

Hi,
I got this code from the net.
<CustomAction Id="SPTest.CustomMenuItem.ButtonClicked"
RegistrationType="ContentType"
RegistrationId="0x0101"
Location="EditControlBlock"
ImageUrl="/_layouts/IMAGES/DOCLINK.GIF"
Sequence="600"
Title="Click Me!"
Description="Shows an alert message for this content type."
>
<UrlAction Url="javascript:alert('Hello World!');" />
</CustomAction>
It creates a custom context menu. How can i get the selected item using that code..
Sorry for the tons of question. SharePoint newbie here (5 weeks in SP), Hehhehe!

If you can redirect your request on context.....you can try this line of code
<UrlActionUrl=”~site/_layouts/ItemAudit.aspx?ID={ItemId}&List={ListId}”/>
The Idea is to send in query string parameter and get the ItemID in the Pageload Event of the page you want to redirect to.
Other tokens that are available
Token
Replaced By
~site/
SPContext.Current.Web.ServerRelativeUrl
~sitecollection/
SPContext.Current.Site.ServerRelativeUrl
{ItemId}
item.ID.ToString()
{ItemUrl}
item.Url
{SiteUrl}
web.Url
{ListId}
list.ID.ToString(“B”)
{RecurrenceId}
item.RecurrenceID

Custom context menu without separators?

The following code adds two custom items to a context menu.
However, they are separated into two different menu sections where
I need them to be in only one. What am I missing?
var cmiDrillIn:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("Drill
in...", true);
var cmiDrillOut:ContextMenuItem = new ContextMenuItem("Drill
Out...", true);
cmiDrillIn.addEventListener(ContextMenuEvent.MENU_ITEM_SELECT,
contextMenuItem_menuItemSelect);
cmiDrillOut.addEventListener(ContextMenuEvent.MENU_ITEM_SELECT,
contextMenuItem_menuItemSelect);
cm = new ContextMenu();
cm.hideBuiltInItems();
cm.customItems = [cmiDrillIn,cmiDrillOut];
cm.addEventListener(ContextMenuEvent.MENU_SELECT,
contextMenu_menuSelect);

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that custom context menu is not available to every user.
You can check whether you stop inheriting permsissions in the list setting.
In addition, you can add javascript code as simple as possible to check whether it works.

The Right-click context menu on bookmarks on my mac is not working

Hi. After recently upgrading to FF 3.6.12 on my Macbook Pro running OSX 10.6.4, I can no longer right-click on my individual bookmark names, and get the context menu to come up. It will simply not appear in some areas, and in other areas it works wrong, and in one area, it works correctly. For example:
1. If I choose Bookmarks from the top menu, and right-click on a bookmark name, the context menu does not come up and FF simply opens that webpage the same as if I had left-clicked on it.
2. If I right-click on a Bookmark from the toolbar menu on the far right, by clicking on >>, in this list, if I right-click, nothing at all happens. The context menu does not come up and it also does not go to the webpage as it shouldn't.
3. Now, if I right-click on a bookmark name on the Bookmarks Toolbar running horizontal right above the Tabs, these bookmarks do behave properly. The normal context menu comes up.
So as you can see, I'm getting 3 different behaviors when right-clicking on bookmark names in 3 different areas. Help....
Thanks...

I have my bookmarks in lots of folders on the bookmarks toolbar, if i want to right click on any bookmark in a folder to get the context menu i cannot get the context menu to appear. I thought it was me but I think this is the same issue described above. I would really like to have this working.

Menu and Bookmark toolbars are missing upon restart of Firefox, although they are recoverable by left clicking on remaining toolbar. V31 and Windows 7.

As question states, the menu toolbar and bookmark toolbars are missing upon restart.
Both are fully recoverable as customized, but then disappear again upon restart.

I deleted the localstore.rdf.
But, I usually run Norton's Utilities 2012 "clean disk" upon closing down computer. The problem is something Norton is doing.
Firefox is storing my configuration/profile related to showing the two toolbars in some fashion (perhaps as a temp file), that Norton is erasing it.
Norton isn't deleting the customization/uniqueness of the toolbars.
Just that they don't show upon restarting.
There is probably a way for Firefox to store this "permanently".
Thanks for the help so far. The fix may not be something Firefox can do.

Bookmarks disappeared in bookmarks drop down menu and bookmarks toolbar disappeared too after upgrading

I still have all my bookmarks so they are not lost (I can find them under 'bookmarks'>'Edit bookmarks' and also when I put them in the left side windowframe by clicking 'View'>'Sidebar'>'Bookmarks'
I saw them appear once again in the dropdown menu but now they're gone again.
The Firefox help page suggest to go to the 'add ons window' and select 'Extentions'>'Torbutten' but I don't even have that. They say that if you don't find the button, that means the torbutton is not installed. And then they leave you without another possibility. But I think that's only for when your bookmarks are totally lost anyway.
I always use the drop down menu and the bookmarks toolbar so would love to get it back. Adding, erasing and moving the bookmarks in the 'edit bookmarks' window all works just fine.

This issue can also be caused by a missing "Bookmarks Toolbar items" on the Bookmarks Toolbar.
* Make sure that you have the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
* Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" then click the "Restore Default Set" button

How to retrieve DB package from JDev custom context menu

Hi everyboby,
I have a question, sorry in advance if it sounds dumb .
In my JDev project I declaratively added a context menu to a database package (<folder type="PACKAGE">...) . It's to say when log in to a DB and you click on a package you can see the defined custom menu.
Here is the structure of my custom menu added in the package context menu:
-MyMenu
-MySubMenu
Programmaticaly, I managed to open a JFrame by affecting MySubMenu a java class file (<item className="OpenJFrame"><title>MySubMenu</title></item> for instance) which is in charge of creating the JFrame. Now if I click on MySubMenu a window opens.
This window simply contains a button "commit package - svn".
There comes my struggle. The opened window would let me press the button and commit the content of the package but I can't find how to retrieve the name or even the content of the previously clicked package.
I tried to add a listener to the button and searched for the parent but I miserably failed to access the package.
Do you have any idea on how I can perform this?
Thank you.

Hi',
I think you are trying to do this "select empName from emp where empID=$empid" and the $empid should dynamically come.

Start Firefox and homepage is not displayed; cannot navigate back to previously viewed pages using back or forward arrows; bookmarks toolbar not available on start-up though selected in options menu.

1. Start firefox and my homepage is not displayed--there is no webpage displayed on initial startup. A homepage is listed in the options menu. In order to see homepage I need to manually press the home icon to the right of the search box.
2. I am not capable of using the navigation arrows to the left of the address bar to navigate to previously viewed webpages. The arrows are present but are gray. Is there a setting in the security tab of the options menu that disables the navigation arrows for security purposes (i.e. not remembering webpages or cookies, etc.)?
3. Though the bookmark toolbar is selected in the options menu, the bookmarks toolbar is not visible when starting firefox. Instead there is a red firefox toolbar located at the upper left of the screen. In order to view the bookmarks toolbar I need to go into the options menu and de-select the bookmarks toolbar (causes the red firefox toolbar to disappear) and then re-select the bookmarks toolbar.
Any information to help correct these issues is greatly appreciated.
Mike

''framerotblues'' suggestion worked for me. I was having the following problems after 10.0 update:
>No back/forward buttons.
>Nothing in address bar.
>Bookmark toolbar would not automatically load. Even though it was checked as a toolbar to view, I had to uncheck and check it again every time I closed/opened Firefox.
>Could not access add-ons. Neither through menu toolbar nor using ctrl-shift-a
Restarted Firefox with add-ons disabled (help->restart with add-ons disabled). Removed ''Facebook Disconnect'' from add-ons. Restarted and everything seems to be working.

How do I get to the Bookmark Toolbar folder in FireFox 4.0?

On firefox 3.6, I have my favorite tabs shown on my home page. When I choose to bookmark a file I am given a choice to locate it in the Bookmark menue or Bookmark toolbar folder. How do I do this in FF4.0

Some menu entries in the main menu bar are hidden if you use the mouse and only appear if you use the keyboard to open the menu (Bug 626825).
You can see the difference if you use Alt+F to open the File menu or Alt+B to open the Bookmarks menu and compare that to what you see if you use the mouse to open the menu after you have made the menu bar visible by tapping Alt or by pressing F10.
* "Bookmark All Tabs" (Shift+Ctrl+D) no longer shows in the Bookmarks menu unless you open the Bookmarks menu via the keyboard (Alt + B).
* "Bookmark This Page" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of that browser page.
* "Bookmark All Tabs" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of a tab on the tab bar.

Or additionaly, is it possible to define a custom context menu in alv table?
Thanks in advance,

[TUTORIAL] Context Menu to export EML files

Hello there folks!
I'm pretty new to the topic of C3PO, GW and all the Novell stuff and one of my tasks was to "code an export mechanism for GW8 thats lats us save e-mails to our storage system". Ok, that was a hammer. But wrapping my head around it and starting to error out the things got me pretty far and I guessed it was tutorial material. So here we go:
@Moderators: This is the thread that has everything in it. the other one can be deleted.
This tutorial is intendend for C# only. I don't like VB and I'm too dumb for C++ so if you need it for another dialect you need to work it out your self.
Agenda:
Needed packages
C3PO wizard
Loading to Visual Studio 2010
Needed Imports/References
Simple MessageBoxing
Export Code
Registering and caching the .DLL
Testing (please help me with a better way here)
1. Needed packages
the novell-gwc3po-devel-2012.11.15.zip file (unzip this after downloading)
an installed version of Visual Studio 2012 C# (or if you want to work with a different dialect choose another)
cmd access to some of the registering tools:
It may be the best thing to set tose paths up in you env variables. Allthough when running the cmd with administrator privileges you can't use regasm from env variables and need to cd to the directory.
RegAsm (regasm.exe): C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319 (the version depends on the target)
GACUtil (gacutil.exe): C:\Program Files(x86)\Micrsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools\ (this path is also dependent on your target framework version, I chose .NET4)
StrongName (sn.exe): C:\Program Files(x86)\Micrsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools\ (this path is also dependent on your target framework version, I chose .NET4)
a good beverage :D (you should obtain multiple of these :D)
2. The C3PO wizard
In my case I wanted to add the functionality via the context menu. So the code executes when right-clicking on one or multiple messages displays another menu item and is clickable.
This is pretty easy to realize via the C3PO wizard. You'll find it in the downloaded and extracted novell-gwc3po-devel-2012.11.15.zip from above. Start it (it is located in extracted-zip-folder/gwc3po-FILES/C3POWizard/C3POWizard.exe) and setup your project:
Setup the project in the wizard step 1
I usually setup the Wizard inside my Visual Studio 2010 projects folder, create a new folder there with the name of the project and check the options i want to have.
In the next step I chose which type of View should display my custom context menu. Since I was only interested in exporting and working with e-mails I chose "GW.MESSAGE.MAIL" and added it to the bottom list via, you guessed it, "Add".
Setup theView that invokes the new context menu item
In the next step you I had to setup a new entry for the context menu. You could make side-droppable menus here etc. But for me a simple "Add Menu" was enough. Give it a name of your choice (beware: I'm yet to find out where to change this setting in the source files).
Creating a Menu Item in step 3
Click through next and the wizard will sum up you choices. In the next dialog window you will be prompted to specify the language you want the code to be generated. I chose .NET C#.
In the prompt after that you will be asked if the wizard should create a .DLL-project. You click yes.
Quit the wizard with the "Done" button.
3. Loading to Visual Studio 2010
Open up your Visual Studio and go to File -> Open Project. Navigate to the folder where you just created the files with the C3PO-Wizard. and open up the .csproj file.
All the files get loaded and it seems quite well. but now it's time for some other stuff: Signing, or better, providing a key for signing.
Allthough the README.txt (also in your project folder) states this is not neccessarily needed I did not get it to work without a key file.
Open up a terminal and tpye in sn /? to see if the environment variables work. If not you can yuse the abolute path to sn (see: 1: Needed packages). If everything works as expected you can generate your keyfile with sn -k <PathToYourProject>\Archive.snk.
In Visual Studio, go to Project -> <ProjectName>-Properties -> Signing -> Sign assembly [x] -> Search and pick the .snk-file you just created.
Good. A first compilation of the project with F6 should rumble through without problems. Go to <ProjectFolder>\bin\Release and copy the .dll files to <GroupWiseInstallPath>.
After that you need to open a cmd windows as administrator and cd to the RegAsm.exe directory and execute the following: [I]regasm "<GroupWiseInstallPath>\<TheDllName>.dll". Then execute gacutil -i "<GroupWiseInstallPath>\<TheDllName>.dll".
RegAsm will register the extension to the Windows registry and GACUtil will cache the .dll content to make it available to GroupWise.
You need to re-cache the .dll everytime you compile in VS. So basically the workflow is Compile -> Copy dll to GroupWise directory -> re-cache with gacutil -i -> Start Groupwise
I have not found a method to post-build execute a script that does that. Problem is the copying and the gacutil caching (both must be done as administrator).
IIf everything worked you see a new entry in the context menu when right-clicking a mail in Groupwise. When you click it, there will appear a message box.
The MessageBox is defined in GWCommand.cs L. ~125
4. Needed Imports/References
Since we got the skeleton to compile and function properly, it's time to get our own code in there. FOr rapid prototyping I do all the stuff in GWCommand.cs.
Go to Project -> add Reference -> COM and select "C3POTypeLibrary", "GroupWareTypeLibrary, "GroupWiseCommander", "GroupWiseConnectorLibrary" and click OK. The selected entries now appear in the project explorer.
5. Simple MessageBoxing
A thing I like to do (because I'm not a very good programmer) is to get all sorts of infos to get displayed with
Code:
MessageBox.Show();
Just fling it in the code and see what get's where etc. An important thing is allready in the comments of the file.
It is this line:
Code:
C3POTypeLibrary.IGWClientState6 myCL = (C3POTypeLibrary.IGWClientState6)WIASSArchivButton.g_C3POManager.ClientState;
. Uncomment it and play around with the myCL-object in your code.
The myCL has some properties we will use later on such as myCL.SelectedMessages which is exactly what we need for our archive functionality.
6. Export Code
Now we get to the code:
With the
Code:
ClientState
dug up in the code we can pass the
Code:
SelectedMessages
into a
Code:
MessageList
. Over this MessageList we will iterate and save each
Code:
Message
with the so called
Code:
GroupWiseCommander
to our disk. well that sounds simple. And, well after digging through a lot of threads here on the forum and the documentation, it is.
Here is the Execute() method from GWCommand.cs:
It has comments that should serve as a documentation.
Code:
public void Execute()
try
switch (m_PersistentID)
case WIASSArchivButton.vWIASS:
//C3PO WIZARD Put execute command code here for WIASS Context menu.
/* this was in the comments and is essential!
* the myCL object provides us everything we need to interact with the messages */
C3POTypeLibrary.IGWClientState6 myCL = (C3POTypeLibrary.IGWClientState6)WIASSArchivButton.g_C3POManager.ClientState;
// get the selected messages
object o = myCL.SelectedMessages;
// and convert the SelectedMessages to a MessagesList
MessageList ml = (MessageList)o;
// iterate over all the selected Messages
// this was tricky: the index of the MessageList starts by 1 and not at 0
for (int i = 1; i <= ml.Count; i++)
// the .Item() method expects either a string or a long
// see http://www.novell.com/documentation/developer/groupwise_sdk/gwsdk_gwobjapi/data/h20s5bdo.html
long index = (long)i;
// instantiate a Message object to get access to the different properties like subject, sender etc
GroupwareTypeLibrary.Message oMessage = (GroupwareTypeLibrary.Message)ml.Item(index);
// instantiate a GroupWiseCommander
// this is the interface to the TOKEN API
// TOKENS: https://www.novell.com/developer/documentation/gwtoken/index.html
GroupWiseCommander.GWCommander cmdr = new GroupWiseCommander.GWCommander();
// the GWCommander has an Execute() method that is able to take certain tokens kind of like SQL
// lets build the token (the complete list is huge and awesome) to save our Messages
// ItemSaveMessage(): https://www.novell.com/developer/documentation/gwtoken/gwtokens/data/hbt0bd7x.html
string tokenCommand = "ItemSaveMessage(\"" + oMessage.MessageID + "\"; \"C:\\archiv\\" + oMessage.MessageID + ".eml\"; 900)";
/* what happens here ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ is that we build us a TOKEN command that the
* GWCommander is able to execute.
* the actual command is ItemSaveMassge()
* everything between the semi-colons are the parameters:
* \"" + oMessage.MessageID + "\" : builds an ANSISTRING of the MessageID which we get from the oMessage onject

7. Registering and caching the .DLL
After that you need to open a cmd windows as administrator and cd to the RegAsm.exe directory and execute the following: regasm "<GroupWiseInstallPath>\<TheDllName>.dll". Then execute gacutil -i "<GroupWiseInstallPath>\<TheDllName>.dll".
RegAsm will register the extension to the Windows registry and GACUtil will cache the .dll content to make it available to GroupWise.
You need to re-cache the .dll everytime you compile in VS. So basically the workflow is Compile -> Copy dll to GroupWise directory -> re-cache with gacutil -i -> Start Groupwise
8. Testing (please help me with a better way here)
Is there a good way to hook every thing up together to jsut stay in VS , compile, files get copied, registered, cached and GW starts?
Thanks for reading!
I wrote this up to have a documentation for myself and others. please let em know if you need help or anything is missing or not clear. It's certainly not a total noob guide and I expect a bit of knowledge to be honest.
Regards
Sebastian

multiple, leading "Fwd: " and/or "Re: " should be handled well,
subject should be handled case-in-sensitive.
This sounds like you should implement some sort of SelectedMessagesValidator class just to keep it clean.

As said this works fine for me.
But note that unfortunately the paths to "regasm" and "gacutil" changed
(compared to the time where you wrote your tutorial).
Definitely. That way, as you mentioned, the post build scripts integrate very well.

I can not figure out, where you have the GW.BROWSER thing from, but in my examples I allways used GW.MESSAGES.MAIL

Yes. You can leave it at 2.0. I just have the 4.5 installed so i will target this version

This must be made only once because after a successful build is this .dll known;
keywords: GAC -> cached
But note that "successful" means also that the post-build event ran flawless!)
This is quite specific to your case since my example on exports a flat EML file to the hard drive

fired
and the created "GWSaveToDatabase.snk" file added to the solution.
I don't want to be picky, but it's gacutil that needs the strong names. ragasm is not complaining

And that is definitely wrong!
See:
The result was a C# project that does not show any new context menu entry.
So I tried at the next wizard run "Add Menu Item".
The wizard created again a C# project but still no new context menu entry in the GroupWise client.
(And that after all needed steps
like
copy to GroupWise installation path,
regasm and gacutil over all .dlls
etc.
were successful be made).
It took a complete day to get the idea to "merge" the two wizard created projects!
Why merging?
Because the second project contained a "const" which were used in the switch statement of the "Execute()" method
(with the same meaning like your "WIASSArchivButton.vWIASS" - see your code snippet above!)
and the "CustomizeContextMenu(...)" method in "CommandFactory.cs" looked also different
while the first project does not contained something similar.
( For example:
The "CustomizeContextMenu(...)" method had more statements.
And that made more sense to me compared to the first wizeard created C# project.
Since I uploaded a better example this is obsolete.

with regasm registered
and
with gacutil to the cache added "things"
would be "un-registerd" and "un-cached".
This is, as I assume, due to the Interop.C3POTypeLibrary.dll. This must me cached every time the project is build. maybe you could use gacutil -i Interop.C3POTypeLibrary.dll -f to force the recaching

After that the context menu were shown in the GroupWise client!
Thats is correct. But I never had to do this. The thing is, that the "Add Menu Item" is giving you the opputunity to specify a command, which the "Add Menu" doesn't.

Means: For example: Three selected emails ends up in three time added context menu.
Solution:
Checking
var existsAlready = menuItems.Item("...");
if (existsAlready != null)
return;
in "CustomizeContextMenu(...)" method and leaving the method under shown circumstances.
I added a fix for this in the second post, but it isn't working in GW2012 anymore. I have a very ubly fix for that in my new code.

This may confuse but it is finally ok. No need to change here anything!
On the other side:
It will NOT work when the registry entry
"SOFTWARE\\Novell\\GroupWise\\5.0\\C3PO\\DataTypes \\...."
will be changed/"adjusted to that GroupWise client version you are currently using"!
This is all part of the official documentation and wasn't touched by Novell since quite a long time.
I think i will make a github repository in the futer as a proof of concept and kind of a accessable documentation for everyone.

The problem is that Google has an onmousedown attribute added to the links that modify a link if you click or right-click a result link to make the link point to a safe browsing check on the Google server. 
You can see that if you hover a link and you will notice that after you have (right) click a link the the URL changes to www.google.com/url?xxxxx.
You can use this bookmarklet to remove the onmousedown attributes.
<pre><nowiki>javascript:(function(){var e=document.querySelectorAll('*[id="search"] a[onmousedown]'),E,i;for(i=0;E=e[i];i++){E.removeAttribute('onmousedown')}})()</nowiki></pre>

How do I get rid of or reorganize duplicate nested bookmarks? I have multiple bookmark toolbars and bookmark menus!

In addition to the normal Bookmarks Menu and Bookmarks Toolbar, my Bookmarks Menu has its own Bookmarks Toolbar. I also have 3 nested bookmarks with the name “(No Title). One contains a Bookmarks Menu, one contains a Bookmarks Toolbar and the third contains what appears to be random bookmarks including one entry that reads “problem loading page.”
The Bookmarks Toolbar folder I save a Web page to, is "not" the folder I see on the visible Bookmarks Toolbar. So saving appears not to work.
