Hover text/Mouseover help

I have InDesign CS2. Most of my experience is in newspaper layout and such.
I have been tasked to produce a product that will comsist of a interactive map of sorts in a PDF format
Brief explination:
The map will consist of about 80 locations (marked with a small circle and the city name) with contact information for particular individulas.
My plan was to have a mouseover/hover text pop up containing the contact information when the mouse is over the circle/city name.
If anyone could help me figure this out it would save me an immense amount of time.
I also have Photoshop CS2, if that would work better.
Thanks

I had done a couple postings on InDesignSecrets.com about creating buttons so I just posted a tutorial on creating show/hide buttons which should answer your question:

  • Need help with 'hover' text box

    Hola
    Why the 'hover' text box don't appear in this page? Welcome to TummyTime, 3D 4D Ultrasound, Modesto, Salida, Ceres, Turlock area.
    The 'hover' text should appear as you go over the pictures at the bottom of the page under  RECENT ANGELS section.
    As you see in this page (Under "Our Projects") :HOME - Arctic Template
    the 'hover' text box appear as you go 'over' the picture, but in 'my' page it doesn't.
    Now, when I 'preview' in my computer, I can see the 'over text box' appear but when I upload it, it just doesn't.
    Can you please check it out and help me with this problem please?
    Thanks.

    This code is what is on the original template

    As you can see, it's the same code, and it works on my computer but NOT online . . .
    So, where should I put this;

  • Hover text defaulted on my site, ignoring my mouseover HTML. Two different hosts show same bug. (Chrome showed same on one host.)

    My stylesheet mouseover/hover texts show properly when <my-custom>.css comes from local (offline) disc, but when online, a default "Control+R improves the quality of this image..." shows instead, presumably from the browser. Occasionally a test will show my custom hover text on the very FIRST mousover event ONLY, then the default kicks in.
    This behavior showed also on Crome before I banished it. (Chrome's default text was identical) Support at my usual webhost has been looking at the problem for two weeks without result. Today I loaded the same code to a different host organization (under http://waggledance.us) and I'm seeing the same default behavior, including an occurrence of the "first time okay" observation.
    I note there is a default "Main.css" on that second server, which makes me ask whether a default .css is getting slammed on my user after <my-custom>.css serves (on both hosts??).

    This is not a problem on your web server, it almost certainly is a feature of your internet service. Please see this recent thread for some possible approaches: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/941344 How do I get rid of the annoying Improve Images tooltip?] Can you resolve it?

  • How to remove mouseover help in WDA?

    Hello Guys,
    I am getting mouse over kind of help whenever I am taking mouse cursor over inputfield or button. we are on ERP 6.0 EhP4 system.
    for e.g. button with name Process, the text is "Process - Button -  Process - To activate, press spacebar"
    In general, below text is appearing,  "<btn_name> - Button - <btn_name> - To activate, press spacebar"
    our business users do not wanted to see this kind of message.
    My question is, Is there any setting we need to do to remove these kind of mouseover help?
    Please let me know.
    Thanks,

    It sounds like you have accessiblity mode turned on and therefore are getting extra quickinfo text designed for screen readers for the visually impared.  Make sure that you don't  have accessibility mode activated either globally or on this application.

  • Create hover text from mouse rollover with nav. menu

    Howdy,
    I'm using CS5 actionscript 2. I would like to create hovering text when one mouses over an item in the navigation window (please see pic). You know, something that would act like a brief abstract to give the user more info re: whether or not they need to click on that link.
    At present, the nav_mc is linked to an xml doc FYI (the nav_mc accordians in and out, but doesn't have to). I input what I want the menu and submenu to say in the xml nodes and it shows up. It would be cool if the hover text added could also be xml driven too.
    I am green to this so the more detail the better. Do I need to create a new xml doc? A new .swf? How do I link this? Should I use Flash Builder or Catalyst?    I am happy to provide coding/docs of what I have to make things more clear.
    Much Thanks!

    Hi Kglad,
    Thank you so much for taking the time to answer. I'm afraid I'm a bit of a newbie, would you mind fleshing your suggestions out a bit? sorry!
    create a movieclip with a dynamic text, I'm not sure what this looks like (see pic) I made the green rec. a movie clip and created a dyn. text field...the movie clip and dyn. text are different things or one in the same?
    assign the textfield an instance name (eg, tf) think I got this?
    and assign the movieclip a linkage id. not sure what this might look like, do you mean an instance name? you can then attach your movieclip on rollover and assign the textfield's text and remove the movieclip on rollout.  not sure what this looks like
    you can enter the data used on each menu item's rollover wherever you like (including your xml).  you just need to parse those data so each menu item is aware of its "tooltip" and can assign that to the attached movieclip's textfield.  sorry, not sure hat this looks like either... the only menu item I have access to in the .fla is the lt. blue box you see in the upper left of pic. everything is generated in the xml...you probably gathered this, but just in case...
    Thank you so much for your help!

  • Hide or remove player's hover text

    When a user clicks the CC button during playback to open closed captions window, and then hovers the cursor over a button on the player bar (my player bar is centered on the bottom, directly below the captions window), the hover text for each button is partially hidden behind the closed caption window. (See below...) Can I somehow remove the hover text, or have it display on top of the caption window?

    LOL - I'll complete what Michael's sentence should finish with.
    You can remove the hover texts alltogether by editing the playbar in Flash if you have that installed on your machine.
    ... and you know how to use it.
    Cheers... Rick

  • My phone does not show contact names for country and area code while having in coming calls. Although, I have endorsed the name with numbers. How do I the problem. My one is a iphone 3s device with updated os. Please text to help

    My iphone does not recognize saved contact number while having incoming calls due to country and area code as auto prefix. How do i fix the problem. How do i ensure that the phone recognize calls with and without the country and area code. Please text to help.

    1) Open the Phone and dial *228. This is a Verizon over-the-air programming number.
    2) When the system answer press 1 for "Program or activate your phone"
    3) Wait for the call to disconnect. You should get a prompt stating something like, "Settings updated."
    4) Open the Task Manager and kill the Phone, Message, and Contacts Applications
    5) Wait a few minutes (I waited 3 just to be extra safe)
    6) Open the Message App to verify the fix

  • HT4623 updated "successfully" to iOS7 on my 4S but now it takes FOREVER to recognize each keystroke - even to type in passcode.  also takes forever to type a single key in text.  HELP.

    updated "successfully" to iOS7 on my 4S but now it takes FOREVER to recognize each keystroke - even to type in passcode.  also takes forever to type a single key in text.  HELP.

    Adjusting the date or time didn't do anything for me either. I'm guessing my two options are to either do the full restore from scratch and not apply any backup ... Or possibly wait for an iOS update that might resolve this issue.
    I'm not that much of an avid twitter user that I need it implemented natively in all my devices - so for now I'll probably value all my game save data, internal settings in apps e.t.c. over that functionality (or over the amount of work it would be to get me back to where I am now after a full wipe). I'll see what happens after the next iOS delta update. I'll reevaluate the full wipe after that if the issue hasn't been resolved

    Can anyone shed light on how to do this again?

  • Map hotspot hover text?

    Can someone please tell me how to add hover text over map
    hotspots?
    My map is here:
    http://www.bluehippotravel.com/travelweather.php
    And I want to mimic the look of this map:
    http://www.islands.com/destinations.jsp
    I realize that the one I'd like to mimic is in flash, but I'm
    pretty sure that in js there is an easy way to do this. And if so,
    how can I customize the hover css attributes (color of the box
    border, background color of the box, text font color/size)
    Thank you in advance!
    Laura

    Alan,
    May I ask you for a bit more detail to implement? I did add
    alt text tag to one as a test.
    (1) Where to add the title attributes please?
    (2) Where in the map code below to add specifically what/how?
    Thanks so much!

  • Hover text on playback bar

    Hi,
    I'm trying to change the hover text on the playback bar buttons. I'm using Captivate 7 and I've tried messing with localization options via Flash but as the intructions were for Captivate 4 I've had no luck. Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    You will need to open a playbar in Flash and save as a new name if desired. The tooltips are in the localization MovieClip. They are in an array:
    var pbcBtnTips_ENU:Array = new Array("Rewind ",
              "Back ",
              "Play ",
              "Pause ",
              "Forward ",
              "Closed Captioning ",
              "Audio On ",
              "Audio Off ",
              "Exit ",
              "Information ",
              "dummy for scratch bar ",
              "Table of Contents ",
              "2x Fast Forward Speed ",
              "4x Fast Forward Speed ",
              "Normal Speed ",
              "Print");
    Change the tooltips text and export the movie to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 7 x64\en_US\Gallery\Playbars\AS3. Make sure the skin editor points to the file you just created.

    I had a contact added mistakenly as an iphone contact now it tries to send imessages to that contact instead of a regular text, any help?

    Something doesn't make any sense here, because iMessage ONLY works between you and anyone using an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5, you couldn't iMessage someone that DIDN'T meet those requirements, if you wanted to. Are you positive this contact does not meet the requirements to iMessage?
