Display menu items on mouseover

Hi,
I want to display menu item on mouseover.
Now the items get displayed only after we 'click' on the main menu.
Is there any default property to set, to achieve this?
Thanks

i dont think so it is possible in 6i......may be by using accessible keys but you cannot write Events on Menus except the Start-up Code
In Forms11g you can have JavaScript based menus and in forms 10g by using Java beans it might be possible

Displaying menu-items in two columns

in my menus i separate in the label e.g.
Cut..Ctrl+X
Copy..Ctrl+C
Paste..Ctrl+V
(i wrote "." instead of blanks)
is it possible to left-arange the hotkeys on the right?
=>
Cut.........Ctrl+X
Copy.......Ctrl+C
Paste......Ctrl+V
I don't want to use blanks for filling up the space between label and hotkey.

Gerd

Hi
If these magic menu items are required to be displayed as you have showed, I believe you can set the label of the menu item. You know the word 'Paste' is longer. How about trying it like this for each of your menu item ...
set_menu_item_property(<yourmenuitem>, LABEL, rpad(get_menu_item_property(<yourmenuitem>,LABEL),12,'.')||L_suffix)
where L_suffix (a VARCHAR2(6) variable) would depend on the menu item. Say for Cut, L_suffix would be 'Ctrl+X'
You may like to write the relevant code in a procedure and call this procedure once in you when-new-form-instance trigger.
Hope this helps

Hi,
I have a suggestion:
Design your page into tables and rows.
Divide each row into columns.Example:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<hbj:hoverMenu
id="hover1"
standAlone="true">
<hbj:hoverMenuItem
    id="1"
    text="Size"
    />
</hbj:hoverMenu>
</td>
<td>
<hbj:hoverMenu
id="hover2"
standAlone="true">
<hbj:hoverMenuItem
    id="1"
    text="Size"
    />
</hbj:hoverMenu>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
If you want to align the sub menu accordingly,you can again divide each row of the table into a subtable with rows and columns.
Hope this helps.

Harish

A top level menu item should display its active state if any of its submenu items are active

Example case: I'm designing a Muse site which is basically a portfolio of our work. We design books, doing page layout and covers. We have numerous book categories and sub categories which I put in a horizontal menu. When a given top level category menu item doesn't have a submenu, it is a hyperlink and it displays active state when the browser displays its linked page. But when a given page is displayed from a submenu link, its top level menu item does NOT display active state. I think it should.
For example, we have a "Nostalgia" category which has "Film" and "TV" subcategories. Because the menu item, "Nostalgia" has a submenu containing "Film" and "TV", the label "Nostalgia" is not a hyperlink. The submenu attached to it has the two hyperlinked items "Film" and "TV". When the browser is displaying either linked page, the submenu is hidden. So it would be nice if the top level item, "Nostalgia" would display in an active state.

I just downloaded Firefox 4 and it does NOT look like it is supposed to look - My menu items are not in a single button, etc... as displayed in Step 2 of getting to know your browser on the welcome page for Mozilla Firefox 4. Can anyone help?

This webpage [http://example.com http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/central/ ]shows what Firefox 4 should look like. My Firefox 4 does not have the menu items grouped and I have no app tab. All in all, my Firefox 4 is not what it should be... does anyone know why this might be and how I should go about fixing it? thanks :)

To get the new UI you need to hide the menu bar. To do that in the View menu select Toolbars, then click on the "Menu Bar" entry.
If you need access to the menus you can press either Alt or F10 to temporarily display them.

Create an context menu item to open a file on a specific display

Hello,
I have an external display connected to my MBP, but I don't always need to use it so it's not always on. I'd like to have a way to open a file (or application) on a specified display on a case by case basis. I know that I can assign an application to open on a specific display by right-clicking on the app in the dock and selecting options->assign to. The problem with this is that it's a global change. When I'm working on school work, I usually like to have reference material (pdfs, wepages, etc) open on the external display while I'm working in Word on the MBPs monitor.
What I'd like to be able to do is right click on the file (or app) and use a context menu item to open the item on a specific display. Does anyone know of an automator action/applescript/terminal command to create a context menu item like this?
Thanks.

I use "Open Terminal Here" script for that:

Can't get menu items to be displayed

Hello,
The answer to my problem is probably quite simple but I can't see it and its driving me crazy, basically I can't get my menu items to be displayed like file, create and search. But what ever I add to the file menu items like open or save isn't displayed and I don't know why I think it may have to do with the action listeners but I'm not sure how or why or it could be because of where it is placed in the code, but again I'm not sure. Any help will be appreciated thanks!

It's because you are mixing Swing components and AWT components. The menu items are actually displayed, but they are hidden behind the panel with all the buttons. Things will work fine if you change the following line:
Panel p1 = new Panel(); // This is an AWT panel. Use this instead:
JPanel p1 = new JPanel();Read more about it here:

Highlight current menu item whose page is displayed in an iFrame

Greetings,
Looking for the Holy Grail here...
So the parent page has static menu and an iframe which then loads in a specific pages as the user clicks on the menu items (which are ul li tags).
I would like to be able to highlight a menu item based on the page content being displayed in an iframe. It seems to be quite difficult to do for this style of page load using iframe method. I know it would be easier using php, but I can only use iframe (long story).
When page 1 is displayed in the iframe, I would like for the corresponding menu item to be highlighted.
I'm hoping the answer is out there somewhere as iframe has been around forever. If you would like to see my code, I'm happy to provide this.
Thanks!

Sure, here you go...
1. Add this code between your <head> tags:
<script type="text/javascript">
    function offclass(id)
    {document.getElementById(id).className = 'class_off';}
    function onclass(id)
    {document.getElementById(id).className = 'class_on';}
</script>
2. In your css, create your on and off styles (I used <a> you can use <li> the same way)...
a.class_on {
    color:blue;
a.class_off {
    color:red;
3. Add id's (individual to each link), classes (set to the off class you make) and onclick events (one to turn the link on and several to turn off the others) to your links...
<a id="link1" class="class_off" href="http://www.apple.com" target="mr_jones" onclick="onclass('link1'); offclass('link2'); offclass('link3');">Link 1</a>
<a id="link2" class="class_off" href="http://www.adobe.com" target="mr_jones" onclick="onclass('link2'); offclass('link1'); offclass('link3');">Link 2</a>
<a id="link3" class="class_off" href="http://www.foxnews.com" target="mr_jones" onclick="onclass('link3'); offclass('link1'); offclass('link2');">Link 3</a>
4. Give your iframe the name used for your target and a base "on page load source" (I used a # so it's blank on load)...
<iframe id="mr_jones" name="mr_jones" width="420" height="315" src="#" frameborder="0"></iframe>
That's it. As you increase the number of links, you just need to make sure you have an offclass for each new one added in to turn those off when you click.

Can I display an "Organize Bookmarks" menu item in FF 10?

As I recall (albeit perhaps incorrectly), there used to be an "Organize Bookmarks" menu item in FF that is not being displayed in the FF 10 bookmarks menu. Is there a means to display such a menu item?
Thanks

That menu item was renamed to '''Show All Bookmarks''' back in the Firefox 4.0 version.

How to display images for right click menu items

Thank to all.
If you are young work to Learn, not to earn.

Hi Mr,
you should have searched the topic 'Programming with Menu Bars'
Use the ATTR_SHOW_IMAGES attribute to add a column in the menu in which images can be placed. Then use the ATTR_ITEM_BITMAP attribute to specify an image to use for a submenu or menu item

Hi,
Did you included the AddMenus.xml in the extra files when you generated the installer?
The AddMenus.xml file needs to be in the same folder as the addon exe. If there is no AddMenus.xml file there is no error raised, B1DE thinks there are no menus to add.
You have to include all extra files in the installer when you generate it.
Hope it helps

Why would menu items not display?

I am trying to troubleshoot an issue a user is having with Bridge CS3. Several selections from his "Tools" menu have disappeard (not grey'd out, but actually missing). The one he's specifically looking for is the InDesign Contact Sheet command. He used to have them and now they are gone. I've compared my preferences with his and they are identical. He's running Tiger and I'm on Leopard.
Here's another odd thing. My version is 2.1.1.9 and his is 2.1.0.100. Yet when I run Software updates and the Adobe updater on his computer, it reports back that everything is up-to-date. Even though our versions are different, as well as a different OSs, this doesn't explain why he used to have it and no longer does.
Any thoughts?

The 2.1.1 update can be downloaded from here - http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3813
The InDesign menu item comes from a script loading at launch. You can look in the preferences> Startup Scripts and see if it is present but disabled.

How to have some top level menu items not be hyperlinks

I have a navigation band where 5 of the 6 top level items need to NOT be hyperlinks but simply "category titles" that you mouseover to display the submenu - which are the links to web pages.
An example of this is on the Amazon.com home page - the items under "Shop All Departments" has categories that are not clickable, but when you mouseover display the clickable submenu.
Is it possible to customize some but not all of the top menu items and how?
What do I need to modify in the CSS so that the top "category title" looks/behave the submenu (same font color/bgcolor changes) but no active hyperlink?

Here is a link to my pagewhere I am testing the navigation. Currently there is only this one page and I have <a href="#"> for the links.
The only menu item that should be clickable in the top level is "Contact"
Everything in the second and third level (Events > Research >...) needs to be clickable
Everything is working as I want except that "Research" needs to be clickable
- and I would like to have the clickable item text be underline when in the hover state but I want to get the base navigation working first
The closest matching code I found in the CSS is:
#MenuBar1 li .MenuBarItemSubmenu,
#MenuBar1 li ul li .MenuBarItemSubmenu {
cursor: default;
If I remove this, all the top level items become clickable. Let me know if there is other information you need. I super appreciate your help with this!

How to reset input Text value on click of root menu item navigation link ?

All,
Jdeveloper - 11.1.1.6
I am facing this issue across the pages.
I have a root_menu.xml based navigation available as links at the top of ADF application. Some of the menu links directly have JSPX pages having the content being loaded , and others are JSPX containing Bounded task flow.
Issue :
On the click of the menu links, the page gets reloaded / refreshed , however the input value given on the page remains displayed even after refresh.
We need the page refresh along with any input test box getting cleared on Menu item click.
Any pointers as to how we can resolve.
Thanks

If your page is in a taskflow (which it should be as you use pageflowscope), you should have a method action in your task flow which you call to clear all the values you use in the UI.
Timo
