Floating Window Environment

Hi,
It's been sometime since I loaded up Visual Studio, the last Was VS6. Back then I was able to have a floating window like environment. Frankly I can't recall what the mode was called.
The menu bar and toll bar from VS was across the top of the screen. There was no large background parent window. All the toolbox windows were floatable and I could just place them where ever I wanted.
When designing a form, the form was not inside a window it self, it was free floating.
Does anyone know how to accomplish this environment in VS13? Is it even possible any more?
Thanks

Hi jessevg,
In visual Studio 2013, we could arrange windows, but they are based on the Visual Studio IDE. In other words, if we minimized the VS IDE, the windows also can’t be displayed.
For the tab window in VS2013, it can floats without the VS IDE, minimized can’t affect the float tab windows. (e.g. windows form design tab window)
In the design model of windows form, the form can’t be float, it should base on the tab window.

  • "Midi Events" Environment, floating window. How to repeat in next project?

    This is proving a slightly bizarre, lovely but rather annoying issue.
    I have searched high and low on the web today for an answer, I cannot find it. allow me to explain, I've just upgraded to Logic Pro 9, and after enjoying the Thievery Corporation demo I set to work on scoring a video doc of mine, as really I'm an ex musician who now works ostensibly in Final Cut, on my Mac Pro.
    Anyway my first Logic project is going well, lots of plugin purchased, first 5mins complete, now here's the thing, when I open my first project a floating window also appears with it, and it is listed separately from arrangement on the window tab, in this case arrangement is called "imtro" and the floating window is called "imtro:Tempo". It opens and closes with the project, if I hit the top corner of the floating window to close it goes and closes, and cannot be re opened unless I close the project.
    I thougt it was a new feature in Logic 9, as it operates as a lovely appregiator inside of Logic. It had 4 boxes (orange) Midi Effects (On/Off), Arp Starts (immediately/on first 1/1, 1/2, 1/4 etc) then a 1/16 appregiator, and 1/8 appregiator button, both with all the varaitions you could imagine, and finally a Delay button. And put simply when I select any track in the arrange window, and swith to Midi Effects to On, it plays wonderfully appreg..., in record it creates all the notes in the piano scroll and event list as I'm playing.
    Trouble, once dismissed, I cannot recall it without closing the project, reopening the project.
    Worse yet on starting new project for the next piece of music in video doc' I've discovered, it's not a feature I can find anywhere, what's going on?
    Back in the original project if I pull the window by the right corner there's a whole bunch of boxes, and it turns out this is an Environment. The trouble is in any other project I open the Environment window from the window tab, and Midi Effects environment is nowhere to found. So I learnt how to import environments from my first project into this project, but cannot seem to get the environment to float over the project where clicking on track in the Arrange window allows the Midi Event float to effect the track I'm playing, yes you can reassign the header of the track to it but it doesn't work as well.
    Now have I just stumbled on a new feature, I heartily recommend for Logic 10, or am I missing something? Or is this some kind of glitch or corruption, which just appears to be a good one? I certainly can't read about anywhere, and I can't repeat it by just calling it up in the project? What am I missing? I wonder if Tempo being in it's name is significant, as a floating window, when imorted in Midi effects it appears as the "project name:Enviroment: rather than "project name:Tempo".
    Anyone?

    The layers in the env. are accessed by the drop down menu at the upper left of the env. window. It has a text field and a downward facing triangle. You may need to go into the view menu, and enable the inspector - it's at the top of that. You can also just hit "I" (as in the letter 'eye').
    When you are importing, you should select the 'total replace' option. There are connections that are not made if you just import that layer.
    Edit: I should add that 'total' replace will get rid of any instruments you already have, so use it with caution. If you have a bunch of work done, investigate merging.

  • Can I run my java program in windows environment?

    How can i make my compiled java program run into windows environment?
    What program will i use to be able to do that?

    1. Install the JRE.
    2. Go to the command line.
    3. Type something like java myClass or java -jar myJar.jar.
    You could also use one of the many java2exe (java to executable) programs floating out there.

  • No Floating Windows: workaround?

    Still cannot get used to no Floating Windows. Found this thread which reveals that they are definitively no longer an option in L8:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6848865&#6848865
    Is there anyone who misses them that has found a good working practise to replace them?

    thanks for your reply Mattrixx.. yes - the Event window Floats as does the Loop Browser, Audio Bin all float when opening from the Menu and holding down Option. But crucially the Mixer, Environment, Piano Roll and Score Editor *do not* stay floating after being opened in this way.. which to me is a real nuisance.
    *Request to Logic Programmers*: if there is already a facility to open Floating windows on some of the items available in the Window list, could you please extend them to ALL the windows in that list?
    Oh and by the way a real useful discovery:
    I experimented with different modifier keys on that window list ( ie Control and Shift instead of the old L7 option + window for Floating Window) and guess what:
    Control + choice of Window (ie Sample Editor, Piano Roll etc) opens Key Commands taking you to that particular window opening function)....
    Now how many of you knew about that .. or care?

  • How do I keep a floating window on top of a tabbed document so that it can be used as a reference while drawing/painting?

    Just started using Photoshop CC on my iMac and I have noticed this issue which I did not have using windows based computers. Any floating window just seems to hide in the background as soon as I click on the tabbed document I want to work on. This is an issue for me since I like to have a couple of references open while painting plus I always have another with nothing but my color palette in it. I've already gone over the preferences but can't seem to find the way to avoid this and the options from Widow>Arrange weren't any help also resizing all windows so that they don't overlap each other ends up wasting a lot of screen real estate.

    c.pfaffenbichler meruhelp this is what I'm used to in Windows windowsWORKSPACE | Flickr - Photo Sharing! and yes the active document does not need to be the top most window. This enables me to have my references as floating windows and keep them where I need them as I paint.
    This is what I have to do while working on my Mac macWORKSPACE | Flickr - Photo Sharing! keeping references to either side using floating windows or options from Window>Arrange. If I drag them closer to the area I want to work on, the window will either disappear behind the active document window or it will overlap as you can see in the two images in the top left corner. Aside from the extra work from rearranging windows this way I feel that I'm loosing a good chunk of screen (see yellow striped area).

    Hi Hussein,
    Yes, I am able to print seed concurrent report (o/p -text) to that printer (method:- giving the printer name and copies by clicking " Option " in SRS window.. )
    When i do the same for xml publisher publisher report to the same printer , its not working using bursting control file.
    I too made the test in xml publisher report without bursting control file , there i faced another new issue. Let me explain
    1. We are using RDF as data source . here o/p :-" XML "
    2. We are using RTF as layout. In template definition, i chose the default o/p type as :- "HTML"
    3. When i submit the request, i choose the printer which is working fine for printing seeded report. (method:- giving the printer name and copies by clicking " Option " in SRS window.. )
    4. My printer getting prints HTML tag, instead of desired o/p. I wondered after seeing the printout.
    5. I cross checked by clicking view output, its showing me the exact html output as per RTF layout.
    Dont know wat happening ??? Help me out.
    i did the same for changing default output type in template definition to RTF,PDF.. its printing source code of the output type instead of printing output.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • FTP Receiver File adapter  -- CRLF In output File in Windows environment.

    Hi All,
    Idoc to File : Receiver File adapter.
    I use the endseparator 'nl' and the output file is coming correctly with NFS and It is not working when we are doing with with FTP.
    Tested with NFS (Unix environment)
    I used the endseparator 'nl' and the output file is coming with CRLF.
    Tested with FTP (Windows environment)
    When I tested the same the output file is coming with LF.
    I tried by using the module "SAP XI Sample/ConvertCRLFfromToLF" which will convert from LFToCRLF.But it is serving my purpose.
    Can anyone please suggest how I can get the CRLF in the file while putting in the output directory which is in windows environment.
    Thanks
    Seema

    Do not mention endSeparator in content conversion parameters...by default XI puts newline as endSeparator
    It should work for NFS and FTP on Windows

  • I am retired.  In my active years, I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Standard and Dreamweaver CS5 for my Windows environment.  I recently spent a fortune to migrate to  Apple.  I realize that my licenses are not recognized by Adobe. I am desperate

    I am retired.  In my active years, I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Standard and Dreamweaver CS5 for my Windows environment.  I recently spent a fortune to migrate to  Apple.  I now (and a bite late) realize that my licenses are not recognized by Adobe. I am desperate. I cannot afford the expense of buying or paying access to the software and, still,  I need the tools for all those little things I do for enjoyment. What can be done?

    The licenses are operating system specific, so one option would be to retain use of the Windows machine you had before the Mac.
    If you want to try to use the older stuff on your new Mac you can try installing Windows emulation software such as Bootcamp.

  • What is the keyboard shortcut to close a floating window?

    Ah, okay, never used that one. Have you checked your *Key Commands* that this shortcut actually still is assigned? Even if it is, it might just help to reassign it (to the same keycombo).
    (much later:)
    Mm, I did a search of Logic key commands, but I cannot find any command that closes floating windows, alt-W is not a default shortcut for anything... to what command exactly did you assign alt-W?

  • How to use windows environment variable "%appdata%" in TEXT_IO built-in

    Hello Sir/Madam,
    I'm currently using TEXT_IO built-in package to write data file user's "C" drive in Oracle Forms 6i on Windows XP OS. We are in the process of upgrading the OS to Windows7. This new version does not allow to write to "C" or "D" drive. I was wondering how I can use windows environment variable "%appdata%" in this built-in to write the data file to user's AppData folder?
    I would appreciate your help.
    Regards,
    Vani Sonti

    You are obviously not familiar with the architecture of webforms. See here http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/forms/275632-133265.pdf
    I guess you are running your forms locally, so the forms server and the client run on the very same machine. This won't be the case once you run in production, as you will have an application server and clients connecting to the server.
    text_io, tool_env and all the forms built ins will be executed on the machine the forms runtime runs on, and in a 3 tier architecture this is the application server, not the client as the real client will run just a java applet which actually just does what the forms runtime on the server tells it to do (or passes client side events like mouse clicks to the forms runtime on the server).
    A very simple explanation for the architecture would be that the whole GUI part has been ripped off the forms runtime and put into a java applet; the logic part (the old-fashioned forms runtime) where the whole Forms PL/SQL code is executed communicates with the GUI part (which is implemented as a java applet) via HTTP, so there is no need to have both running on the very same machine.
    So if you are writing a file with text_io on c:\dummy.txt this file will be generated on the application server machine as it is executed where the forms runtime runs. If you read environment variables with tool_env.getvar you will get the environment variable from the application server machine.
    If you need those variables from your application server then those built-in packages are what you need, but if you need the real client variables there is no way around java in webforms 6i. But the beans should be simple enough to have them written within no time ;)
    cheers

  • How do I change position of video floating window in IDCS5 PDF export?

    I have created an interactive document in InDesign CS5 (for Mac) that includes some movies. The page size is 1280 x 800 and the H264.mov files are 960 x 540 and 800x600. I place the movie in the center of the page at 100% size (without resizing either the movie object or the frame). The poster is set to None to keep it blank. In the PDF options, the Play Video in Floating Window box is checked, with the size set to 1x and the Position is set to Center by default but it is grayed out, with no option to change it.
    When I export the document to PDF (Interactive) with both View and Layout set to Default and Buttons and Media set to Include All, the resulting PDF file opens the movie window in the upper right corner of the PDF document window. It does this whether viewing in Acrobat X Pro (10.1.2) or Acrobat Reader (9.5.0). I've tried opening the file on other computers and have the same issue. I've also created the same document in IDCS5.5 with the same outcome.
    I'd like the movie to open in the center of the PDF document window. I've made other documents where it does this, but for the life of me can't figure out what I'm doing differently to cause the floating movie window to open in the upper right corner of the PDF document.
    Any insight you could provide would be very helpful.
    Thanks,
    John

    Thanks for your reply, Steve. I, too, believe there is a bug, but it's not in InDesign CS5, as I mentioned in my post, I was able to replicate the problem by opening the file in CS5.5 and exporting it to an interactive PDF. The movie again opens in the upper right corner.
    However, if I create a NEW page in the document and place the same movie. it opens in the PDF reader centered in the page. I guess I could recreate the document if this is the only fix, but I thought that I may be doing something wrong, which apparently is not the case.
    "Computers often do what you want them to, but they ALWAYS do what you tell them to."   —anonymous
    "If you have placed the video in InDesign in it's own frame, should you not leave this box unchecked?"
    Rik, I didn't actually place the movie into a new frame. What I meant to say was that once the movie was placed into the document, I did not resize it. I found that if I don't have the PDF viewer open the movie in a flaoting window, the movie quality suffers if the PDF viewer opens in a larger size than the original InDesign page size (which can happen depending on how the user's PDF viewer is configured). However, the movie plays and views perfectly if it is in a floating window.

  • To launch a java application in Windows environment

    hello,
    I need to distribute one stand alone application, that I made using NetBeans, for sale it.
    I know that this is not a so simple problem, because delivering the program to one client you cannot simlpy say him to launch the jar file....
    I saw that, in the Windows environment, program like eclipse or netBeans run thruogth an .exe file, that I think is a program that its purpose is to define the java environment for the application in the particular host operative environment .
    Perhaps they are corporations like InstallShield (now Macrovision) that sale programs to solve this type of problems..., and I already used this type of programs to install some my
    applications that I coded in languages different than java.
    But before to look for one of them, I should like have more informations how this problem fits in java language, knowing that java is different to other languages because use JRE and have proper tools, how JWS and JNPL, that concern with this problem.
    ...Looking in the forum I had not much help..., but I saw that someone uses to write launchers program in different language, like C, as well I had not so much detailled instructions about how to do it.
    In order to solve my problem I should like have, from some one that already made it, some general information about how he realized the commercial installation of java applications in the most used Operatve Systems (particullary Windows), and possibly to have links to web sites for good explanations, including advantages to buy apposite commercials installation programs too.
    thank you very much
    tonyMrsangelo

    You can distribute it as an executable JAR so users will run it by double clicking. The would be required to have JRE installed.
    You can distribute it online via WebStart. Users need JRE but it's easier to manage updates and distribution of new versions.
    You can distribute it with AjaxSwing, a product that deploys Swing applications as AJAX websites so you don't need JRE at all.
    You can create EXE files using many of the products available. Google for it and you'll get lots of hits.

  • Can one create a floating window using JSF?

    I was recently shown the interface for GMail. I don't have a GMail account, but one of the things I was asked to investigate was whether or not we can create the sort of floating window that appears on the GMail interface when one positions the mouse pointer over a cell on the grid showing the email messgaes. We have a grid on our JSF page, that shows specific data for items we're supporting, and it would be useful if we could have something like a mouseover event handler for each table row, and in that event handler show a window with a graphic specific to the data in that row, and the chart would move with the mouse pointer, perhaps changing the graphic if the mouse pointer is moved over a different row in the data table.
    Can we do this using JSF? If not, what alternative can you suggest that would provide a reasonable facsimile to this kind of user friendly feature?
    Thanks

    "Core JavaServer Faces" Second Edition, by David Geary and Cay Horstmann, copyr 2007 - ISBN: 0-13-173886-0 - (it put me back USD $50, but well worth it). Page 644 gives two examples of how to generate a pop-up window. They give two examples because of problems that can arise when you transfer data between the main window and the pop-up. I do not want to violate copyright and there are ten pages of text devoted to this topic, so I'll just present some tickler code - if you cannot afford the book, maybe you can google on some terms. Sorry, I feel this is as far as I can go on this, I hope this helps some!
    The first example uses a JavaScript call:
    popup = window.open(url, name, features);
    popup.focus();
    where 'features' is a string like "height=300,width=200,toolbar=no,menubar=no"
    The second example creates the pop-up form using a hidden field like this:
    <h:form id="hidden" target="popup">
    <h:inputHidden id="country" value="#{bb.country}"/>
    <h:commandlink id="go" action="showStates"/>
    </h:form>
