Dock:  dwell setting would be "nice-to-have"

FireFox's "Tab Mix Plus" extension offers a feature that would be "nice-to-have" for the Dock. I've got my dock in the "automatically hide and show" mode. Often I mistakenly move my mouse to the edge of the display where the dock is hidden; but the amount of dwell time required to un-hide the dock is not under my control. I would like to be able to set the number of msec that the cursor must dwell on that edge before the dock unhides. As it is, when the dock launches, the only thing I can do to hide it again is to move my cursor off that edge. Often, I do this while cursing...
Is there anything (OS extension, etc.) available now that could add this capability to OS10.4.10? TIA for any info.

Tnx for the feedback, Thomas, but what you are suggesting is imho a band-aid rather than a real solution. I normally have the dock on the right side of my screen, where it conflicts with scrollbars on or near that same area. True, moving the dock to the opposite side "fixes" that problem (so thanks!) but as I am right-handed, I'd really want to keep the dock there.
Sooo... Anyone know how to add dwell-time to the activation of the dock? Apple, are you listening... this would be a cool improvement, adding an innovation that is a real time-saver in FireFox tab handling.

    I am using a Photoshop cs2, and I wonder if it is possible to keep the settings of the guidelines when closing an image, with the actual document ? It would be nice to have the guidelines locked down, I find it than when opening the same or another image, the guidelines are not locked, it is annoying to have to lock them down again. and it would actually be nice, to ba able to give specific directions when placing the guidelines. Thanks

    Then why are the guides unlocked when I reopen a document that I saved with the guides locked ?

  • A few features that would be nice to have

    - Fluid grid layout for responsive design (why not just merge Edge Reflow with Muse??)
    - Ability to create themes for CMS systems like Wordpress
    - Ability to display an image sequence on scroll (so can display a 3d image sequence)

    Hi Calin,
    1) how does one install jRuby? Where are the jars? I was hoping the JSR 223 integration would be here: http://java.net/projects/scripting/downloads but it's not. How come it's not distributed with the tool?
    - we do not distribute scripting engines - they communicate with JRE not with Data Modeler - if you plug scripting engine into your Java then DM will recognize it and allow to be used
    - you can download JRuby from http://jruby.org/download
    - extract the archive and copy jruby.jar file to ext directory - "Java\jdk1.6.0_27\jre\lib\ext"
    2) is it possible to attach custom triggers to tables? Is there a better way other than using Scripts -> After Create?It's not clear what you mean with "*custom* trigger" - you can create regular trigger in physical model - under table node you can find "triggers " node and you can use context menu to create trigger.
    3) It would be nice if multiple classifications could be attached to tables, so the multiple classifications can be used by multiple scripts.. For example a table can be both a fact (generate some things..) and have audit columns (attach a trigger >to maintain them), etc.Your example doesn't clarify the need for more then one classification

  • Flash productivity features that would be nice to have...

    I am sure these kind of questions were asked many times by users, but for some reason, these features are not available in Flash, although to me at least, it seems logical that they should be..
    But, it is either to complicated to implement them, because of how the Library/Symbol features are implemented, and we just need to adjust and use Flash in the few ways it can be used.
    Nevertheless, i would like to have the option to:
    swap a single instance at once on multiple keyframes on the Timeline,
    rename a single instance at once on multiple keyframes on the Timeline,
    duplicate and rename multiple symbols in the Library at once,
    annoying Spacebar behavior: you have to click on stage before the hand tool appears and then you can move the stage,
    distribute to Symbols - as in, select multiple shapes, txt, images or whatever objects you have on Stage, and convert them all to symbols on-the-fly,
    rename multiple instances at once on multiple keyframes on the Timeline,
    these are only from the top of my head at the moment, i am sure people can add more of their own to the list...
    If there are ways to achieve these, or at least some, i apologize and please do englighten me...

    I did that before i posted this message
    But i think the only way that will happen is if i get my hands dirty with Qt and C++...

  • Do we have an add-on extension 'bitcomet video downloader' ? like the one in CometBird browser. If not, it would be nice to have one. Thx.

    Can we have 'BitComet video downloader' as an add-on extension.
    Like the one CometBird has. Thank you.

    ok...I did the search as follows : in firefox 7.0.1. I go into 'tools, add-ons', search all add-ons by string 'bitcomet video'. The result : 'could not find any matching add-ons'.
    Can you tell me how and where you are doing your search. This add-on is working fine in CometBird, this is not malware, spam ads, viruses, etc.

  • Nice to have a Properties panel shortcut - (sidebar issues)

    Hi,
    Great seeing all the interaction here between users and Adobe...
    Just thinking it would be nice to have a preset keyboard shortcut for showing the properties panel;
    I tried adding it to the sidebar, but when I open it and move it, it has to be re-attached again.
    I reset Ctrl-P to do this, as I really don't use the Print command enough for a shortcut.
    -Jad
    Just realized - the real issue is regarding the sidebar itself;
    If you have panel icons docked there and open them - and then move them, their icons are removed from the sidebar.
    Might be nice to leave those icons on the sidebar after the panels are opened and moved, so after closing the panels you don't have to manually re-add them there,
    or at least make it so when you move the detached panel next to the sidebar, it re-attached the icon..?
    thanks! Jad

    Thank you for making it a sticky post...

  • When moving from a list of threads view to a thread would be nice to jump to last thread read.

    When moving from a list of threads being viewed to a thread, it would be nice to jump to last thread read or first unread thread.
    Sometimes the threads get rather long.  Sometimes I haven't read a thread in awhile & I forget where I have left off reading a thread. It would be nice to have an icon to click on to move to your last read post or the first non-read post. 
    Seems this could be implemented in javascript without too much problem.  Might be a problem of when to get rid of the tracking data.
    Robert

    This would be a new capability.   I didn't know you could jump directly to the last post in a thread by clicking on the posters name in your discussions.  However, I am interested in jumping to the first post that I haven't read.
    Since writing my original post, I realize that software doesn't know what posts I have read. Lets say there are are 26 posts in a thread.  Lets assume these are divided into three pages with at most 10 items in a page:
    page 1 -- a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j
    page 2 -- k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t
    page 3 -- u, v, w, x, y, z
    The software know that I have viewed the first three pages.  It doesn't know what post on the pages I have read.  The software would need to assume I have read all the available posts on a page.
    Now lets assume that 12 more post were added.  This results in:
    page 1 -- a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j
    page 2 -- k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t
    page 3 -- u, v, w, x, y, z, aa,bb,cc,dd
    page 4 -- ee,ff,gg,hh,ii,jj,kk,ll
    It would be nice if I could go to aa. 
    Jumping to the last post in the thread doesn't hack it. You have to spend a lot of time finding where you left off your reading.
    Intesting, the list of your posts on your homepage usings the term Last Activity were as Your Discussions uses the term Last Post. The terminalogy should be the same & should act the same.  For the existing capability of going the the last post, I was thinking of Goto Last Post.

  • Itunes visualizer button on the front from old itunes would be nice

    it would be nice to have the old button back on the front of itunes so that you can start the visualizer like genius, or speakers without having to go to the menu. Why was it removed from itunes? I am speaking of the very old itunes from 2001 which had it.

    I went into the profile folder and found these files but it will not allow you to delete them so now what do you do. I am wondering if I go in and search the hard drive and delete everything that has to do with bookmarks then try to down load the up grade and then load my book marks from a disk would that work? cw

    I do not want the learner to be able to click through the project until they hear the audio recorded on each slide, however I also would like them to have click to advance to the next slide.  Is there a way to set up these 2 functions together?

    I don't like that approach for adult learners, cannot refrain from mentioning that.
    Don't use a playbar but create custom navigation. You'll need a next button on each slide that appears after the audio (in timeline). Since slides will not all have the same duration you'll need an individual button per slide, a shape button on master slide or timed for the rest of the project will not be possible.

  • It would be nice if the IOS7 calendar in weekly view would show more

    When viewing in weekly view, all-day events appear at the top.  When there are two or less, the size of that window reduces.  It would be nice if it expanded to show all, all-day events for that day.  Currently I have to scroll up and down to see them.

    Hi Kathy,
    No need to apologize. It's your first time submitting, so I'm going to go waaaay out on a limb & assure you that you are not being redundant!
    Welcome to the Apple Support Community. Your post actually inspired me, if you will, to find a way to peruse through new music releases without having to come across genres that I absolutely do not care for... like Metal or Rap. Go figure!
    Okay, what I found was that when you are in the iTunes Store, you can simply click on Music as shown below:
    Then if you look over to the right just below the rotating billboards, you will see the following:
    Then it's simply a matter of selecting which genre you want to see; for example:
    Voilà! The page will show nothing but.... you guessed it, kathyfromindianapolis!
    Then, if you want to see most of the newest releases by genre; then simply click on the " See All > " hyperlink just to the left of the 'genre selector box' & that will bring you to a page like this:
    Finally, up in the top right corner, there is a 3-way toggle with a little triangle with which you can sort by Name, by Release Date, or by Featured. I believe that the default setting is 'Featured', however, I prefer the 'Release Date' as that puts it all in chronological order for y'all!
    So, your suggestions are nice, Kathy, but since it would cost Apple the time involved in facilitating such a change; chances are (realistically speaking) that your suggestion(s) will go unheeded. Nonetheless, I hope that what I have found (because of your initiative) helps you come closer to what you suggested.
    Best Regards,

  • PPRO CS5.5 - Would be nice if sorting of project material took place immediately

    Hi there...
    Perhaps I am doing something wrong or I have missed some hidden preference.
    Anyway, what is really bugging me is that in my project I have LOTS of files and bins etc.
    After importing a clip or creating a new bin and giving it a name PPRO does not sort the list according to names until I come up to the top of the project panel
    and toggle-click the NAME pane.
    After that sorting of recently added items is alphabetical. On the other hand, if I dont come up and do that little trick PPRO wont sort until I close and re-open the project....
    Not so Pro
    Anyway - THis is using Mac OS X Snow Leopard - Latest Version

    2 instances I (or a poor assistant editor) has to rename that many or more clips:
    - Anything long enough that's slated & w/ script notes from the shoot - you want your file names to be your scene & take.  Alot of these types of projects are done on MC, which doesn't sort after naming and for a good reason.  With some little details on how it handles it really optimizes how fast you can do the work.
    - In AE, had to make about 200 versions of the same 5 graphic slates.  I named the files so that I can easily go back to find it if I need to make any changes for specific versions; and it saved a bunch of steps in exporting because I named it specifically what the comp name was & exported file should be named.
    So, doing around 1000 renames with AE autosorting after every rename (and having to scroll back to where I was each time), was not ideal. That's why it should be optional to whether it "automatically" does it or not .
    I agree it would be nice if upon import, it automatically sorts everything into whatever you currently have set.. by name, by type, by label, etc.  Makes sense.

  • Is there any way to tell which formulas a particular cell is in, reverse look-up style? That is, is there a way to search somehow for which formulas in a sheet contain a particular cell in them without opening all of them up? If not, it would be nice

    Is there any way to tell which formulas a particular cell is in, reverse look-up style? That is, is there a way to search somehow for which formulas in a sheet contain a particular cell in them without opening all of them up? If not, it would be nice.
    I'm fixing a Numbers document that I use in business daily that's become overly complicated, but while I want to clear/delete a number of cells in it to clean it up, I'm not sure if those cells are being used as source for other formulas on the page. I don't have to open all my formulas one by one to see if that cell is in there, do I?! That'd be a huge amount of work if I wanted to eliminate say 10 cells to search each formula on the page to see if it is in there or watch all the cells when I delete that cell to see if the numbers change! There's got to be an easier way! Right click doesn't seem to be any help.
    I don't want to damage my daily tool to make it cleaner and reorganize it. Is there really no way to do a reverse look-up of which formulas a particular cell is in?! Any time I click on a formula it highlights all the CELLS in that formula. Why can't I (or can I?) do the reverse and see all the FORMULAS that contain a particular cell?
    As a Numbers document ages or gets used frequently, you can sometimes forget which cells are tied to which formulas. You just look for the results of your formulas. Would be a nice thing to be able to do. Thoughts? Work-arounds? Answers?

    Answer would be no unless application provided such feature. Numbers does not as far as I know.
    Note that even if you have complete list of formulae used in a table, identifying formulae referencing any given cell is not simple.
    E.g., cell T20 is referenced not only in
    =T20+1
    but also in
    =SUM(T)
    =SUM(20:20)
    =SUM(S19:U22)
    =OFFSET(S1,19,1,1,1)
    =INDIRECT("T"&(10*2))
    In order to identify such formula, we have to actually evaluate it to see if it references the given cell. Especially such formula as OFFSET() and INDIRECT() may not be found by static parser because their parameters can be dynamic.
    Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings.

  • Help with Solaris.....any help would be nice

    I have to write a paper comparing and contrasting Solaris with DOS/MSDOS.....you wouldnt think this would be hard but it is......is ththere a place where I can find a head to head comparsion? If not perhaps some of you familiar with Solaris could give me some points to start with......I should point out I have never used or seen Solaris I am completely new to this area and it may seem simple but the truth is Im a little overwhelmed by all the information....cant see the forrest for the trees...........so any help would be nice ....thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Solaris is so much more advanced an OS than DOS that a comparison is not straightforward, but here are some less than exhaustive suggestions. Please bear in mind I m not a DOS person, and these are just my personal thoughts on the subject; apologies to Microsoft afficionados for any mistakes.
    Similarities:
    Both DOS and Solaris are Operating Systems. They provide access to machine resources, like a printer port, or a disk ( through the filesystem), by providing an Application Programming Interface, thus saving programmers from learning the underlying details and machine language of each machine they use. So for example in DOS compiler routines make use of INT 21h to access system services.In solaris we use the system call interface (which does a similar thing underneath).
    They also both provide a command shell for ordinary users. In DOS we have command.com, in Solaris you may use Korn shells for example.
    Differences
    DOS is a single user operating system. Solaris is multiuser, multitasking and multiprocessing.
    That is to say Solaris supports multiple programs running on the system at the same time. It will context switch between them to give the illusion of concurrency on a uniprocessor system (time-slicing). On a multiprocessor some tasks will run concurrently.
    Many users can log on to a Solaris system (via a serial terminals, or a network connection (telnet or X windows)) and run programs at the same time. Full networking facilities are built in.
    Dos only provides the ability to fileshare across the network, using the add on Lan Manager.
    Because multiple users run processes (threads/tasks ...) concurrently, Solaris provides extensive security, which DOS doesnt. Each process is owned by a user and runs in its own virtual memory space and is prevented from interfering with any other process memory or other users processes. The operating system and its data is held in protected kernel memory and not directly accessible to processes, so malfunctioning user program cant crash the system accidentally or maliciously.
    Devices and files are protected through filesystem permissions, so a device or file has an owner, a group owner and various permissions attributes such as read/write/execute.
    Solaris also implements filesystem Access Control Lists (ACLs).
    Solaris runs in 32bit protected mode on x86 processors, giving it access to the full address range of the processor (4GB using 4k pages). DOS uses the 16bit segmented memory model.
    On ultrasparc systems or the forthcoming Intel Itanium systems, Solaris runs in 64bit mode, giving it access to vastly more memory and
    faster computation. (note also DOS only runs on x86 processors).
    Who are you writing the paper for? It would probably help some of the readers here with posting suggestions. Some specific questions would be good too.
    However, you should try to get access to a solaris system on a network and maybe have a friendly sysadmin show you around a bit.
    Do you know anyone with a LINUX system? Solaris and LINUX are variants of the UNIX OS and for your purposes a comparison of LINUX and DOS may suffice.
    Hope that is some help.
