Different text in navigation buttons??
Hi!! Question for you pros out there! I'm trying to make a
navigation bar where the text is cursive for only the first letter
of each word, and standard text for the rest of the word. For
instance, in the button "Home Page," both the H and the P are in
cursive. When I create this as a button, and then change the text
for the second link, "Resources," it is displaying the 5th letter
in cursive!! Or in the link to "Buyer Info," The B and the y are in
cursive, but not the capitalized I!!! How should I make the
original symbol to accomodate all the different buttons??? If you
could help me get around this that would be great! Thanks thanks
thanks in advance!!

There is no way to do what you want with button symbols. You
can create
the text effects you want if you create the buttons manually,
however.
You can learn how by reading about the Behaviors panel in
the help files.

Conditional text - excluding navigational buttons
i'm running robohelp 8.0.208.
i've created a webhelp system that displays hyperlinked buttons on each topic page for previous, next and TOC.
however, i'd like for these to display only in the context-sensitive help (when a single topic is selected and viewed).
is there a way to tag these buttons so that they don't show on each topic when the user views the entire system?
any help you can give would be much appreciated!Hello again
I'm really confused at this point. You seem to be under the impression that you must manually create things that RoboHelp is able to create for you. Then you are complaining that you thought RoboHelp was more powerful than that. So I'm missing something.
Certainly you are free to create any buttons you like in your topics. The issue seems to be that when the topic is opened on its own via a context sensitive call, you don't wish to see the buttons. Am I correct?
RoboHelp allows you to create a Browse Sequence. That sequence may mirror the TOC structure if you like and it's super simple to accomplish. When you generate WebHelp, you then choose whether to include Browse Sequences or not. If you have included the sequences, the buttons are added to the topics.
The trick is making them disappear when a context sensitive call is made. So my thought was that if you decided to generate WebHelp using a skin, the buttons no longer appear in the topics themselves. Instead, they appear in the navigation mini-toolbar that you only see when the full WebHelp frameset is loaded up. This would make them only available when the user sees the full WebHelp and they would not be present in a Context Sensitive call.
In a skinned setup you have an option of including a "Navigation pane link in topics". If this is enabled and the topic is viewed standalone (as it normally is in a Context Sensitive call) then your user sees a link they may click that opens the surrounding frameset with the topic inside. And the link then disappears when that happens.
Not sure if I've helped or only muddied the waters here. But the intent was to help... Rick

How can I set the different boolean text in the button array?
I created the OK boolean button array. How can I change the boolean text of each button to be different at run-time? I changed one, but the others are changed also.
> Thank you for your help
> Unfortunately I'm a beginner of this software. Please you
> explain me more details.
Select the control using the positioning tool and choose
Customize... from the Edit menu or choose it by popping up
on/right clicking on the control and selecting Advanced>>
Customize...
This will open the control up in a new window -- the control
editor window. This window allows for lots of additional
control modifications and allows for them to be saved into
typedefs to promote reuse and make things more consistent.
Once in the control editor, popup on the button and select
the menu item near the bottom Multiple Text Strings.
Close the editor window and the first dialog will ask if
you would like to save the change
d file. Choose No, and a
second dialog will ask if you would like to Replace the
Original Control. Choose Yes.
At this point the Button will support multiple text labels.
To edit the True string, make the Boolean True and use the
Labeling tool to edit the string that is visible. To edit
the False string, make the Boolean False and use the labeling
tool to edit that string too.

How to select different parts of the text? cmd button no longer does that...
After installing Maverics i can no longer propertly edit my work as I cannot mark different parts of text using cmd button. Shift works as before for highlighting all the text from starting point to selected point but I can no longer use cmd to highlight different areas of the text. Is this an OS bug? Or was the button for selecting different parts of the text changed? I tried everything...
It's just a small part of what makes Pages 5 so "stunning" (Apple's word). You think stripping out the nifty ability to mark non-contiguous passages of text was neat? Sure that was nice. But Apple has gotten rid of more, so much more. And for free!
Just wait till you put the product through its paces and you discover other nice features that are missing, such as (but not limited to):
- no linking of text boxes! Yes, that's right. Now a newsletter that had a "continued on page 6" or whatever will be broken by Pages 5. Stunning! (Even more stunning, Pages 5 will strip out all sorts of formatting from documents created with Pages 4.3 and it will do ao without warning and will save the document in a NEW unified file format so that it cannot be opened by Pages 4.3, thereby potentially losing users hours and hours of work. Stunning!
There's more!
- Pages 5 has no mail merge, no bookmarks, no images in headers/footers! Pages 4.3 has those features, but this stunning new release removes them.
- Pages 5 features vastly reduced and simplified set of templates (there used to be about 130 Apple-cupplied templates, now there are about 60).
- Page 5 also boasts NO RTF SUPPORT, so a paper your wrote with Apple's own TextEdit is not natively readable with Pages: Stunning!
- No detail was too small to omit in this stunning new release: the vertical ruler, so you can easily place text or an obejct at a certain place in a document: gone! Setting the default zoom: gone! Status bar reproting word count and pagecount (e.g., Page 4 of 48): Gone! View comments in the left side bar: Gone! Autocapitalization: Gone! Search & Replace: drastically simplified!
But here's the really good news: Pages 5 is just PERFECT for creating a one page-poster advertising a new concert by Apple employee Eddie Cue. What's more you can collaborate on it with someone else, even if they're using a PC. Now that's "stunning"! -
How to text for Submit button in different languages.
Hi All
We have a requirement to add 'Submit Button' in iSupplier Portal's Standard Pages.
We have substituted the controller to add the Submit button and it works fine also .
Our Application has 7 different languages, so the requirement is to show the button Text w.r.t the
language only .
We have written the following code
OASubmitButtonBean oasb= (OASubmitButtonBean)oapagecontext.getWebBeanFactory().createWebBean(oapagecontext,"BUTTON_SUBMIT");
oasb.setID("IPOPrintReportButton");
oasb.setUINodeName("IPOPrintReportButton");
oasb.setEvent("IPOPrintReportButton");
oasb.setText("IPO Print Report Button");
//oasb.setTranslatableText("XXIPO","XXIPO_PRINT_REPORT_TXT");
pageButtonBarBean2.addIndexedChild(oasb);
when we have used setText method , we are getting the same name in every language. so we tried using setTranslatableText Method and gave it the Messages to set the Button Text. But Now button text is empty .
Pls tell us how to achieve this requirement of having text in different languages on the button ..w.r.t the environment language. we have also defined same Message 'XXIPO_PRINT_REPORT_TXT' for other languages.
naveenHi Kumar
Can u pls brief this a little more .
Lets say I get the language as German in the Controller . Now how do i set the test for the submit button .
Do u mean to say I should check like this:
If (langaue is german )
button.setText("German Submit")
else if (langauge is netherland)
button.setText("Netherland Submit")

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 correctInitially 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.

I recently upgraded the iTunes software to 10.2.2.12 on my Windows XP laptop. Since then, iTunes stopped displaying the Summary info
, the text on the buttons, the various drop down options. The buttons seem to be working but I can't tell what that button is supposed to do
or the option I am selecting. This is preventing me from syncing my photos to the laptop.
this was not a problem with the previous version of iTunes.
Actions taken :
- I tried downloading iTunes again and repairing the install. That did not fix it.
- Don't want to uninstall it as I am worried that I would lose all the songs and the purchases etc.
1. Has anyone encountered this ?
2. Is there a solution for this ?
Many thanks in advance for your time and help

b noir, my Windows 7 machine is having the exact same issue as nsadal, and I have already confirmed that all six of the Segoe UI fonts are installed on my computer. Are any other Windows users having this problem with the 10.2.2.12 iTunes release?
Yeah it does, although the problem predates version 10.2.2.12. It's been around since earlier-on in the version 10s (at least).
It's usually Segoe UI font trouble on the Windows 7 systems too. Unfortunately, the Vortical troubleshooting technique only works on XP and Vista systems, so dealing with the issue on a Windows 7 system is trickier. (There's a bunch of different possible issues relating to the fonts that could be in play, and so the treatment tends to depend on which issue in particular you've got with the Segoe_UI fonts.)

Help with Re-Linking Navigation Buttons
I have Adobe Flash CS3 Pro.
I have a navigation header flash file that came with my website template and I am having difficulty making sense of the actionscript. It has a logo section with effects, 5 main nav buttons that move, and two extra link buttons above the navigation bar. Let’s focus on just the Navigation buttons for now. Here is what I have gathered. I have multiple text buttons on one movieclip, and I have successfully edited the text for each button. If I look at the actionscript in the top layer of this movieclip I see:
“gotoAndStop(parent._parent.num);”
I also have a separate movieclip symbol (with effects) with 5 buttons layers listed in the actionscript with the following actionscript tied to each button from numbers 1 through 5:
onClipEvent (load) {
num=1;
onClipEvent (load) {
num=2;
onClipEvent (load) {
num=3;
onClipEvent (load) {
num=4;
onClipEvent (load) {
num=5;
On the top layer of these 5 buttons I have the following actionscript:
stop();
this["item"+_root.button].gotoAndPlay("s1");
_root.link = _root.button;
I also have a separate button symbol with the following actionscript:
on (rollOver) {
if (_root.link<>1) {
menu.item1.gotoAndPlay("s1");
on (releaseOutside, rollOut) {
if (_root.link<>1) {
menu.item1.gotoAndPlay("s2");
on (release) {
if (_root.link<>1) {
_root.menu["item"+_root.link].gotoAndPlay("s2");
_root.link = 1;
getURL("index.html");
Now my website template came with 5 html pages that my flash navigation buttons correspond to: (index.html, index-1.html, index-2.html, index-3.html, index-4.html, index-5.html). My problem is that I have created new pages (index.html, about.html, featured.html, projects.html, contact.html). I would like each of the 5 buttons to correspond to these pages, not the existing standard “index-n.html” pages.
Also, this is probably not relevant, but each html page has something to this affect so I can see how they correspond to each button.
<script type="text/javascript">
var fo = new FlashObject("flash/menu_vf8.swf?button=2", "head", "100%", "144", "7", "");
fo.addParam("quality", "high");
fo.addParam("wmode", "transparent");
fo.addParam("scale", "noscale");
fo.write("head");
</script>
I guess my real question is: What actionscript do I need to update or remove for the nav button LINKS to work with my new html pages rather than the standard 5 index-n.html pages that it automatically wants to link to?
When I try and add a “getURL” command to each of the 5 buttons and test preview the movie, the links work, but it messes up the effects of the movieclip. In other words, the buttons don’t move, they are motionless, however the links work. If I added this command to each button in some way, what actionscript would I need to remove so there weren’t any complications? I need some expert help here for it would be much appreciated. I am a novice with Flash script and its killing me that I can’t figure it out. I asked for help from the template support and all they came back with was the following message and it wasn’t helpful:
You need to duplicate each button you are editing - it is very important.
2) Update the scripting to look similar way:
on (release) {
if (_root.link<>num) {
_parent["item"+_root.link].gotoAndPlay("s2");
_root.link = num;
if (num == 1) {
getURL("index.html");
} else {
getURL("index-"+Number(num-1)+".html");
Update it to:
on (release) {
getURL("http://www.google.com");
Also, I read through the following discussion, which was helpful to a degree, but it still didn’t answer my questions about getting the links to work.
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3614092#3614092First of all, thank you for showing interest and helping out in my dilemma here. I wish I understood your meaning behind “on” because with my luck there is probably some hidden way of placing script on an object that I don’t understand or haven’t discovered yet.
This is what I know:
I have multiple text buttons on one movieclip entitled “textbutton1” (see previous picture), and I have successfully edited the text for each button and created two extra frames/buttons to make 7 total. If I look at the actionscript in the top layer of this movieclip I see:
“gotoAndStop(parent._parent.num);”
But there is no action on each individual frame (all 7 of them) on that layer.
Like I mentioned before I have a separate movieclip symbol (entitled “menu effect”) with 7 button movieclip layers listed in the actionscript with the following actionscript on each layer.
onClipEvent (load) {
num=1;
onClipEvent (load) {
num=2;
onClipEvent (load) {
num=3;
onClipEvent (load) {
num=4;
onClipEvent (load) {
num=5;
onClipEvent (load) {
num=6;
onClipEvent (load) {
num=7;
On the top layer (layer 4 frame 25) of these 5 buttons I have the following actionscript:
stop();
this["item"+_root.button].gotoAndPlay("s1");
_root.link = _root.button;
I can upload another particular image of the movieclip/actionscript if it would be helpful. Let me know. -
Is there a way that you can have two different text fields (email, phone) that one at least one of them must be completed before submitting the form? Can it be done using javascript in the validation tab? if so, how?
Here is one solution:
// mouse up action for submit button;
function GetField(cName) {
// get field object for cName field with error checking;
var oField = this.getField(cName);
if(oField == null) app.alert("Error accessing field named " + cName + "\nPleae verigy field name, spelling and capitalizeation.", 1, 0);
return oField;
} // end GetField function;
var oPhone = GetField("phone");
oPhone.required = oPhone.value == oPhone.defaultValue;
var oEmail = GetField("email");
oEmail.required = oEmail.value == oEmail.defaultValue;
if(oPhone.required && oEmail.required) {
app.alert("Missing required fields.", 1, 0);
} else {
app.alert("Submitting form", 3, 0);
// additional code for submission; -
Export a pdf to a swf file with navigation buttons???
I have CS4 and I've tried to export a couple indesign files using the swf export feature, but it the navigation of the file is very weak and not very intuitive, and when you zoom in to any of the text the text goes fuzzy.
I would like to just convert a PDF to SWF file with navigation buttons, page controls, zoom in/out, single or two page view options, so that my end user can view it with the free flash player, but I don't have time to build the file in Flash and I don't want to use an online service that comes with a per month or per publication fee.
Any suggestions??I've looked at that, but most of the pdf's that I need to convert are more than 10 pages. I want a program I can download, install and use without a per use cost, or per publication cost.
I'm looking more for a plug-in for either Acrobat, or Indesign or stand alone program that would convert them without adding copyrights, or ads to the file. -
Help please with my navigation buttons
Can anyone please help me with my vertical navigation buttons. I'm trying to set up my nav bar so that all the buttons have a background image (button.jpg) behind them at all times and the only thing that changes when touched or the mouse rolls over them is that the colour of the text changes, except when the sub buttons appear, because the name of some of the sub buttons are so long i have created another button image that is longer (button2.jpg), i only want this to appear on sub buttons otherwise the buttons will end up taking most of the pages space. I'm having great difficulties getting the sub buttons to appear with the correct image (button2.jpg) and am getting increasingly frustrated with it, can anyone please help!!!
www.milesfunerals.com/index2.htmlindex2.html is a broken link for sure. The main index page looks like it's working fine.
A little styling critique if it's okay... Personally I'd have gone with a CSS or Javascript multi-level menu across the bottom of the header. Saves visitors from having to scroll all the way down the page to see every menu item. And I'd rethink the color of the "Miles & Daughters" in the header image. It kinda gets lost in the roses.
If you have a link to the "broken" page please put it up so we can analyze it. -
Trouble with Lumia 900 navigation button not worki...
Hei guys,
This afternoon, all of a sudden, without nothing happened, my 3 navigation buttons (back, start and search) on my nokia lumia 900 stopped working. I really can't understand what happened since 2 minutes before the buttons were working perfectly and then the sensibility of the button is completely zero.
Tried to turn off the phone several times, but it didn't worked at all. Searched around the web but noone seems having the same problem. I found only one guy that posted a similar problem like mine but recieved only an answer that didn't look really helpful (turn off the phone for 3 days and see later).
All the rest of the touch screen still works perfectly, it's just the three navigation button that don't work, even tapping all the time. there's no sign of response from the phone.
I really have no idea what's happened. Did someone had a similar, if not the same problem? any suggestion how to fix it?
please help guys
Thanks.I know this is a month old but all of a sudden this morning I begane having the exact same problem.
My troubleshooting tasks so far have been to reboot the phone about 3 times.
I have hard reset my phone with just holding the power button down (not sliding the screen when asked to). Connected it to my computer to make sure it was updated.
Deleted all new text messages (there was a bug a while back that can cause Windows 7 to lock up on certain formatted text messages. Then rebooted the phone again
Deleted all new email messages from my google account on the phone. Rebooted the phone.
And still I do not have any of my bottom buttons usable. Has anyone figurec this out yet? Every time I do something I have reboot the phone since I cannot back up or get to the home screen. -
Navigation buttons freeze with some websites
I lately started to get the navigation buttons (previous, next, reload) to stop working with some sites. I started to get this problem in FF 3.6 a couple of weeks ago, and after I upgraded to FF 4.0.
It does not have a rule when to happen or in which sites. It normally occurs at least once a day (currently in this Mozilla support site while I'm writing). I'm on Windows 7 (suffered the same problem in two different machines).
Any Ideas?I think I knew the cause of this problem; it's McAfee SiteAdvisor, which I depend on to surf the net safely.
I looked for this problem in McAfee site, and they blame Firefox for it.
In fact, this problem doesn't occur in IE (where the SA is also installed), so it can be an issue for both FF and SiteAdvisor.
So until this problem is solved, is there any workaround? -
Different Text Sizes Linux / Windows
Anyone know anything about this? This is the same code, but
it displays differently on Linux than Windows. There shouldn't be a

Firefox in Windows displays correctly also.

Why not have the size of that button lage enough to
accomodate the text?
Buttons don't all have to be the same size. If you still want
it the
same size as the others, you'll need to create a new button
symbol for
the one with smaller text.
