Floating toolbar

Whoever put the floating toolbar in reader X should be fired and blacklisted from writing and developing software forever.

Dock floating toolbar permanently in my browser

I would like to dock the floating toolbar permanently so that when I open a pdf in my browser I just have the toolbars and do not have to click on a floating one to get it out of the way. Is there a way to do this?
Soapbox Rant:
It is a most annoying view, this very large obnoxious bar always popping in and out in the middle of my documents. It is also an enhancement to carpal tunnel syndrome. It is quite obvious that developers (not only of Reader X) have come up with a new way to increase our workload or have no concept of that an extra drag and mouseclick is repetitious work. At least they did not go as far as Microsoft to force us to look at a huge ribbon that sucks up valuable screen space with features no one mostly uses. Where has the concept of simple user interface control being in the hands of the user gone?

Important Problem with floating toolbar !

Hi all!
I developed a plug-in using Acrobat 8 SDK. When I start acrobat 9.0,
click any floating toolbar on which all tool buttons have been expanded,acrobat 9 will exist,but acrobat 8 is OK. This situation only happens when floating toolbar has some expandable tool buttons and all buttons have been expanded, and acrobat 9.0 starts without openning a PDF.
I debuged my plug-in, stack overflow happened in acrobat.exe!
How to solve this problem? Thanks all!

I would start by using the debugger to try to find where the crash is taking place. I wold ensure that all of my code is properly wrapped with DURING/HANDLER blocks.
If you are still having problems, I'll submit a formal support request to Adobe Developer Support.

Reader X - Floating Toolbar in Browser not functional

Using Reader X in "recent" Firefox version and IE 9 with Windows 7. When viewing a PDF in either browser, none of the icons in the floating toolbar respond. The cursor arrow changes shape during the rollover of the icons, but clicking on them (print, save, page up/down, etc) yields no response whatsoever. Any ideas? Behavior is with 2 of 2 browsers and all websites tested. Isolated to a single user. Thanks!

I read the very long thread at http://forums.adobe.com/message/3295855#3295855 discussing the exact problem with Reader X and an older version of Firefox. Although several comments mentioned changing the zoom level to 100% from something greater, I initially thought they were referring to the zoom within the Reader window. When I finally realized that they were referring to the display properties, I changed that back to 100% and the controls now work.
Although this problem has been happening to me on a custom-built rig, my display is a Dell U2412M. I think at least one other commenter in the other thread mentioned Dell, so perhaps the problem is with the Dell display driver -- where increasing the magnification causes Adobe to "see" mouse presence someplace other than where it actually is. Strage -- and this behavior doesn't appear to affect other apps..
The solution in comment 116 by solution_finder_123 works!!!. Right-click on the shortcut to Reader in the Win 7 Start Menu and select "Disable display scaling on high DPS settings" on Compatibility tab.

How does Adobe XI floating toolbar in google chrome pdf allow toolbar to appear?

Previous versions of the floating toolbar had a Home icon which allowed access to the traditional toolbar (please see example below)
Note: Read mode is the default viewing mode when you open a PDF in a web browser.
The current floating toolbar version does not seem to have this functionality.

Yes it does - but if you're seeing this floating toolbar:
then the PDF is being displayed in Chrome's internal viewer. Type "chrome://plugins/" in the address bar, scroll down to the Chrome PDF option and enable Adobe Reader instead:

Hiding the floating toolbar acrobat reader x

Hello
We have developed software that displays pdf documents on the screen for validation by the user before printing. We need to be able to manage the "print" action within our software and with the new floating toolbar this has become impossible. I can find no trace anywhere on the net of how to display documents without the floating toolbar other thn by configuring each of our client installations which is not an option.
Can anyone help ?
Many thanks

Hi Dave
Thank you very much for such a prompt and courteous reply.
My enquiry was prompted by our having to revisit a range of products we
developed using Adobe Director and the INM Impressario Xtra. We are very
excited by the potential of AIR, Acrobat X Portfolios and Flash Builder but
rather shame-faced for having come to them rather late. No matter, better
late than never.
Your explanation is very helpful as it will help us offer explanations to
our clients. I am sure they can be persuaded given the larger benefits.
Yours
Ian

Why is floating toolbar on online pdf files inactive?

I am running Windows 7 Professional and Adobe Reader 10.1.2. When trying to save online PDF files to my hard drive I cannot make use of the save button on the floating toolbar (see image). Can anybody explain why and what if any settings I need to change?

Dear Ankit, I reverted the check box option in Adobe Reader and rebooted my computer to make sure the changes took effect. When I tried to save the file for which you had included the link, I found the buttons in the reader toolbar on top still inactive. See first screenprint. No floating toolbar in this document. As stated previously the only way to save this file to my computer is to use the command toolbar on my browser. I then tried to save a PDF file downloaded from a Sony website (see link below and 2nd and 3rd screenshot). This time the floating toolbar showed up but again, it was inactive. I don't understand why the floating toolbar on some PDF files shows while on others it doesn't. Regardless, in either case the reader toolbars are inactive. Please try this yourself by going to the link below. I wonder if you experience any of my problems. Thanks!

WebVPN floating toolbar customization help please?

My webvpn portal page has below floating toolbar displayed either on top-left or top-right corner.
Q1 - Is there a way to position the toolbar on top-middle of the pager?
Q2 - Is there a way to per-defined the position of the toolbar when portal page is loaded?
Reason being is that the toolbar is displayed on top of some dropdown menus & http links which users have difficulty accessed to it. I would like to move this toolbar to the top-middle of the page, if possible.
Thanks in advance for your help and assistance.
Joe

WebVPN Floating Toolbar Customization

I would like to know if it is possible to remove only the "Go to address" icon from the floating toolbar.
This question was asked in the following discussion, but the only answer that was provided was to disable the toolbar entirely.
- https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3423160#3423160
I tested the solution and it succeeded in removing the toolbar, but the issue is that users now have no way of cleanly ending the VPN session. We have the Clientless SSL VPN set up to drop users to a company intranet site and do not want them to be able to browse to other sites. We also want them to be able to end the VPN session cleanly so that the license can be freed up as quickly as possible without having to wait for the session to time out.
Is there a way to customize the floating toolbar so that it only displays the "Move to other side", "Home page", and "Logout" buttons and not the "Go to address" button?
Thank you.

No, unfortunately you can't just disable/hide the "Go to address" toolbar. Only the whole toolbar can either be enabled or disabled.

Adobe Reader Read Mode Floating Toolbar Missing Page Numbers

How do I get the page numbers to show up in the Read Mode toolbar.
Mine are missing.
I Googled it for a while and wasn't able to find anything.

Could it be related to a group policy setting?

Can I create a "floating" toolbar, or customize any of the floating palettes?

I don't want the toolbar visible because I need it for almost* nothing and I can't accept even a little compromise to the visible length of my writing workspace. So I hide toolbars, formatting bars, rulers, etc., and use key commands instead whereever possible.
But without the toolbar visible, I can't create tables easily--there's not even a key command. The inspector can only edit tables already created.

The Insert Menu oddly enough inserts stuff, all sorts of stuff.
When I start using a new program I have a good look around, which is well rewarded in Pages because it has mostly sensible names, well organised from the large down to the smallest details working left to right in the Menus and Inspectors.
The View menu also does what it says and the keyboard shortcuts are (mostly) next to the menu items.
If a menu item like Table does not have a keyboard shortcut you can give it one in:
Menu > Apple > System Preferences… > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts
