Fly out menus missing

Hi,
I am a beginner and I've just installed Illustrator CS5 for the first time and when i click tools like rectangle there is no fly out menu like the one that appears in the tutorials. I found that I can cycle through the different options such as "rounded rectangle" by holding ALT while clicking. I have restarted and rebooted. This is a pain especially as I am trying to learn about all the available tools.
This seems to be the same problem that this user was having: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3758447
Thanks for any help you can offer.
Ben

Thanks for that!

  • Creating fly-out menus for website in InDesign CS5

    Hi all, I've just upgraded to CS5, and am looking into the new release of InDesign CS5.  In the past, I had created websites in MS Publisher, and then exported the publication as website as html.  I then uploaded the resulting HTML to my website using Cute FTP.
    I dabbled around with Adobe Contribute, and still found it rather restrictive, as I could not create coloured text boxes, text frames, roll-over buttons and etc.
    Hoping that I'll have better luck with InDesign CS5.  I'm intending to create my website from scratch, and when finished, hope I can export the publication in InDesign as HTML.
    Just wondering if there is a feature in InDesign CS5 that can create drop down or fly-out menus for a website?
    Thanks

    It might be easier to invest in something like Quite Imposing, an impostion plugin for Acrobat. It's far less expensive than a full-blown professional imposition program and if you need to impose a lot of PDFs, it will pay for itself quickly.

  • Nesting fly out menus in an accordion

    Is it possible to install a vertical fly out menu nested
    within a 150px wide accordion. I'm creating a navigation system
    that will allow customers to browse products by either make of
    vehicle, product manufacture, and product category. I thought I
    would use the accordion for the 3 browse methods and then menu
    inside it. I've set the accordion to expand vertically to
    accommodate the varying menu lengths. However, the sub-menus are
    not flying out. The Accordian is nested in a 170px div. Any
    suggestions for making this work? Or other suggestions for an
    elegant solution for long menus with lots of sub_menus. The menus
    will be populated dynamically as products are removed and added in
    the database.
    Thanks in advance.

    You could do this easier if you used dependent dropdowns for
    the vehicle, product manufacture, and product category with a
    search option, this would eliminate a lot of work and confusion.
    This might help, I have been trying to find a good extension
    for menu's that I could either have static or turn dynamic, I just
    purchased Pop Menu Magic from Project Seven
    http://www.projectseven.com/products/menusystems/pmm/index.htm
    I can insert these menu's in the Accordion and do not have
    the problem that you are having with the flyouts, if you are using
    2 or more use server side include.
    What impressed me the most was when I submitted a inquiry
    about the product I received a response by phone from Al Sparber,
    who walked me though the extension and then when I had a question
    after purchase he was right there to help, not going to get that
    kind of service from very may companies.
    One last thing, remember that the search engines are not able
    to index AJAX or SPRY so this might be a concideration when
    designing this and look at menu systems that are search engine
    friendly.

  • Fly out tool menus are not working after latest update-help?!

    Attempting to click/hold click is not expanding the tool fly out menus in Illustrator after the latest update. I did discover that alt + left click will rotate tools, but I would still like to be able to access the fly out menus. Any help would be appreciated!

    So, it sounds like there's a compatibility problem. I didn't realize that Firefox accesses Silverlight in a whole different way. Do you think Firefox needs to be updated/patched to be able to work with the Silverlight plugin again, or does the plugin need to be updated to be compatible with the latest version of Firefox?

    First of all, I´m not a IT guy...just a fan of "firefox".
    Regarding your question, since this issue started with the 34.0.5
    version of "firefox" it´s my opinion that it´s "firefox" the one that
    should be updated/patched to work again with "netflix".

  • I am missing the add objects section from the fly out menu in Photoshop CS6. 3d workspace

    I am missing the "add objects" section from the fly out menu in Photoshop CS6. I am in the 3D workspace of Photoshop. "Scene" is highlighted and I have clicked on the little fly out menu in the upper right hand corner of that panel. The whole section that should contain, Add objects, delete objects, duplicate objects, all the way through reverse order is missing. The add lights section above and render section below it is there. I am not new to Photoshop, but I am new to the 3D section of Photoshops work space.
    I do know about creating a new layer in the layers tab and merging the objects together trick. But I kind of would like for the program to work correctly as I am sure that doing it that way will cause some sort of problems later in the work process.
    Below are the specs of my system.

    I am actually running windows 8. So I am not sure why it is saying windows NT. Anyway...
    Photoshop says that my software is up to date. I use Photoshop daily and everything else works just fine. I have looked through this forum and there is someone else who had the same issue as me but their question was not given a solution. So that is why I choose to post it again.
    Any help will be great. Thank you!
    Mark.

    I've made tests with four different 3rd party tools: OpenGL Extension Viewer, GPU Caps Viewer, Compute4Cash OpenCL Diagnostic Tool and Mudlord's Glide3x wrapper tester. All those tools report no problems with my video card driver and OpenGL/CL.
    I have contacted nVidia and based on reports from the tools and visual tests from GPU Caps Viewer nVidia support doesn't see a problem with my driver.
    I found sniffer_gpu.exe which according to Adobe Help pages is a kind of diagnostic tool and determines whether Photoshop uses the graphic card OpenCL or not. Here is the output:
    Device: 00000000002B1BE8 has video RAM(MB): 1023
    Vendor string:    NVIDIA Corporation
    Renderer string:  GeForce GTX 650/PCIe/SSE2
    Version string:   3.0.0
    OpenGL version as determined by Extensionator...
    OpenGL Version 3.0
    Has NPOT support: TRUE
    Has Framebuffer Object Extension support: TRUE
    OpenGL ok
    OpenCL ok, version=1.1 CUDA 4.2.1
    Return code: 3
    From Adobe GPU Sniffer tool, it looks OK.
    On the other hand, I have your word that there is no problem with Photoshop not recognizing OpenCL for my card and that nVidia driver has problems. Can you justify this somehow? Perhaps you could provide more details on technical level, or another utility to run and extract details, to at least identify the problem Photoshop has and hopefully solve it on either side.
    P.S. During tests there were two things which I noticed, but they are probably not related to the issue:
    1. One tool reports the lack of Windows registry key SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows (NT)/CurrentVersion/OpenGLDrivers. But according to your previous statement, Photoshop only uses OS calls, no registry and according to nVidia, this key is not used in Windows 7.
    2. During some tests GPU Caps Viewer reports that "OpenCL CPU not supported on the selected platform". This is not complaining about GPU, only about CPU. But Photoshop is complaining about GPU, so it shouldn't be relevant.

  • Positioning of the menu fly-outs

    Hi,
    I have created a horizontal menu using CSS on a JSP. This is a three level menu, meaning, it is having fly-out sub menus till third level.
    The problem is that, the contents in the menu are quite a bit so for viewing all the entries, one has to use the scroll button present on the mouse ( which is kinda irritating on the laptops). Is there any way to keep the position of these menus relative? According to the size of the menu, and the screen size, the position should be displayed. Or, like in windows we have for start button, only a certain number of entries should be displayed and for rest of them, a new button should be displayed.
    kindly help me.

    This is at end more a HTML/CSS/JS matter than JSP matter. JSP is just there to allow integration between Java and the HTML/CSS/JS. There are HTML/CSS/JS forums at webdeveloper.com and dynamicdrive.com. Good luck.

  • Photoshop Elements 8 flyout menu - will not fly out!

    None of my flyout menus will fly out. I hover my cursor over the  little black triangle, and nothing happens. I click on the item and  then hover my cursor over the little black triangle and nothing happens.  I click directly on the little black triangle and nothing happens. I choose a menu item and check the options bar at the top, and no other tools in the group are offered. Is  there a setting or something that is preventing me from accessing the  hidden menus?

  • Fly out menu driving me absolutely nuts!

    I am so frustrated. I have used PluginLab before to create
    menus and have had minor problems. This time, I am about to scream.
    Now that I got that off my chest. I would appreciate any
    expience or other option for help.
    I have created a flyout vertical menu with PluginLab. I
    created it about half way through and thought I would test it out.
    Worked fine, So I completed the menu.... did not fly out.! So send
    for support.... apparently it had put an extra /bloom into its
    pathway. So I put that pathway in and it worked.! Everything was
    fine, for the operation of the menu...... but the actual url was
    changing.... some reason the /bloom was getting doubly added to the
    address to find the pages???
    So I took out the /bloom.......
    uploaded and then the fly outs did not work.
    In frustration I moved a copy of pluginlab folder in both
    levels /TEST and /bloom. did not work for fly outs or right
    address.
    So then I took out the /bloom out of the menu structure......
    It all worked fine. Right flyouts.... Right addresses.
    Support got back to me stated that the pluginlab folder
    should be only in the /bloom and that the url should also be
    /bloom. so I changed it to that.... nothing works.... changed it
    back to the way I had tweaked it (where it worked), does not work.
    Basically I have a very disfuctional menu system.
    Any help appreciated!! Since my support seems to be in a very
    late or early time zone.

  • Fly-out menu

    Does anyone know how to make a fly-out menu in Golive 6?
    Thanks

    If you're wanting something that's GoLive-specific, there's this:
    http://www.menumachine.com/
    Or, you could use Adobe's Spry framework:
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/menubar/MenuBarSample.html
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html
    Beyond that, your best bet would be to do a general search for "dynamic menus css" or "dynamic menus javascript" for pre-made scripts you can use.

  • Checked fly out menu

    Hi, I have a photoshop extension with custom fly-out menu  setted up by CSXSInterface.instance.setPanelMenu.
    I wonder if it is possiblr to add check mark to the menu. The same as you can see in Histogram window next to compact/extended/all view options.
    My xml description of menu looks like this:
    <mx:XML id="myMenuData">
          <Menu>
               <MenuItem Id="Compact" Label="Compact view"/>
          <MenuItem Id="Expert"  Label="Developer view"/>
          </Menu>
    </mx:XML>
    but if I add some other options (toggled, type) nothing happens
    Regards

    No can do.
    Here's a link to what you can do with flyout menus. (Besides creating sub-menus, not much).
    http://127.0.0.1:64744/help/topic/com.adobe.cside.docs/programmers_guide/customizing_the_u i.htm
    It could be you can cobble together something using NativeMenus, but it would not be straight-forward...

  • Vertical spry menu bar 2.0 - orientation of submenus (left vs. right fly-out)

    Hello:
    I have a general question I would like to pose to anyone who has worked with the vertical spry 2.0 menu bar regarding the orientation of sub-menus (left vs. right flyout).  In the previous version of the spry menu bar it was possible to to designate that the flyout sub-menus would appear to the left (as opposed to the right (normal or standard position) of the main level menu bar.
    In reviewing the tutorials for the new version, and reviewing the settings for the widget I can't seem to see anything similar for the latest version of the spry menu bar.  Does anyone now if this is possible?  Does it require adjustments to the Javascript or can it be done directly from within the widget customization.
    I realize that it isn't normal practice to pose questions in such general terms, however I thought I would try to determine if anyone has had experience in this regard before launching into the project.
    Thanks in advance.
    Steve Webster

    OK, here's what I've done. By adjusting the right padding on #MenuBarVertical .MenuItem .MenuItemLabel, AND #MenuBarVertical .SubMenu .MenuItem .MenuItemLabel, I was able to position the right arrows to where I wanted them. I also removed all links from top-level menu items so that the fly-out submenus would appear on a touch screen. You can see the results on my client site: www.gcssepm.org. I must say that this solution was not intuitive; it took a lot of experimentation to figure out which rule to adjust, and menu rules vs. submenu rules seem to operate in the opposite manner as far as padding and arrows go.
    I do have a similar issue with Scott, in that it takes two or more "taps" to get the submenus to fly out, but at least the arrow is there so the user knows there is a submenu to be had. The only real issue I still have is that for sub-submenus (i.e., third-level), no amount of tapping will get those to display long enough to select them (only an issue on the iPad). I don't know a way around this for the iPad, other than to also eliminate all links from second-level menus that have a third level, and that's more reprogramming than I want to do for today.
    Final questions regarding the Spry 2.0 widget. Obviously, after I customized the widget, saved it, and imported into my site template, it took some additional tweaking before everything was working properly. Is there a way to export the settings back out to the widget, so that all the tweaking is there? Also, is there a way to save my menu text back to the widget, because it is obviously NOT Home, Entertainment, Music, etc.
    Thanks for all your help, and I hope someone else benefits from my experiences as well.

  • Photshop CS3 Font list fly-out sub menu

    Using Photoshop CS3 in Leopard 10.5.2 The font list fly out sub menus stopped working. These menus give you the font options such and bold condensed italics etc How do I go about turning them back on? I have searched preferences but have not seen anything regarding this issue. I also have done the simple restart but it did not work.
    Thank you

    Buko,
    Thanks for the help. I contacted Adobe tech support and they concluded that Photoshop CS3 does not have the fly out sub menus like Illustrator does in the character palette. All Photoshop has is the sub menu pull down, directly right of the font list. If you know of a plug in that would do such a thing please let me know of it.

    Dear all,
    I feel that there is some Inconsistent records between R/3 and the extracted records BI for the data source 2LIS_03_BF. some of the records may not be updated through delta.. Is this possible? as we have created  Zkey figures to capture the diffrent unit of measure's quantity from the table MSEGO2 and updated to IC_c03 cube.
    Can any one tell me how to go about the missed records..where to find them.. and how to extract them.

    hi,
    inventory scenario is difficult to handle as this have non cumulative key figures which can be viewed at the repors.
    extreme care is required while compression and intila loads and their compression.
    run the report or ask the user to run the report and sort out the missing records.
    chk out the document and chk if the procedure done by you is correct.

  • New laptop with InDesign CS6 installed will not allow mouse to click within the fly-out windows.

    At first, it wouldn't allow me to click on the Selector tool either; had to press "V" on the keyboard to toggle to it.  I can open and close the fly outs, but the mouse doesn't recognize anything clickable within the window itself, from the pages, to the styles etc.    I checked the other CS6 software, and no problem in either Photoshop or Illustrator (didn't go beyond those).   It's a new computer so there are no old version issues; we've uninstalled and reinstalled twice, including any updates and fixes out there.     Any ideas?  I'm dead in the water here....

    Success!  Found the answer here:
