How can i get a drop down menu or check list control

i want to give the user a choice between 7 options on the front panel. i want either a check list or drop down menu.thanks

You can use any of the ring controls to generate a drop down list. The ring controls are found on the Controls >> Ring & Enum palette. You program the drop down items the same way with any of these controls. Type the first drop down item on the control. Right click on the control and select "add item after". The controls text field will blank out and you can enter your second item. Repeat for every item on the list you need to generate. After you are done entering items, click on the control with the application tool and you will see a drop down menu of all the items you entered.

  • How can I get the drop down menu on the internet to work, which shows most visited websites? It was working on Firefox, and now doesn't.

    On the internet when using Firefox, the drop down menu on recently visited sites (where you type in web addresses), does not work. How can I get it drop down and show websites that I recently visited, so I can click on them there instead of retyping them every time?

    Make sure that the Location Bar is not set to "Nothing":
    * Firefox (Tools) > Options > Privacy > Location Bar: When using the location bar, suggest: History, Bookmarks, History and Bookmarks
    Another possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Elements 9 - text, font family - how can I get the drop down menu to work?

    I can't change the text fonts in Elements 9.  Most everything else seems to work except the font family drop down menu.  When I click on the arrow, the menu drops but immediately dissappears.  The font size drop down works but not the family menu.  Help please.

    I think it's usually a restriction of short displays on netbooks and laptops etc. You may have to live with it unless you can change display resolution via the control panel.

  • How can I get bookmark drop down to extend folder list to the left instead of the right?

    Recently cleaned up my bookmarks. Previously when I clicked on the bookmark file bar icon (between history and tools buttons at the top of the screen) the bookmark drop down would appear with my folders and links (as expected) and when I moused over a folder it would open a drop down list on the left of the main bookmark drop down but now it is opening on the right. How can I get it back to opening on the right?
    This is not about having a bookmark pane always open on the left side of the window. Rather it is about how to control how the drop down menus act. (OSX 10.9.3 and Firefox 30.0)
    Thanks!

    So I think I understand what your suggesting but I have a folder inside a folder that has long names and it opens back to the left (after the initially opening to the right) and appears to overlay the screen space needed to display the titles.
    If your right (no pun intended) then the programming that supports the drop down menu display would need to scan through all the enclosed folders looking for the potentially longest title to determine which way to open the list?
    I know that this is a minor issue but it does seem that something may have changed here. It would be nice if there was away to control this part of the drop down operation. Thanks!

  • How can I get a drop-down list selection also be selected in another field with the same list but a different name?

    I have a street address and a billing address. A question is posed with a checkbox — "Is the billing address the same as the street address?" If Yes is checked, the street address automatically fills the billing fields. If No is checked, the user must fill in new information. In both the street address and billing addres, the State field is a drop-down list. How can I get the drop-down list selection in the street address State also be selected in drop-down list for the billing address State?

    Has anyone done this?

  • How can I locate the drop down menu to select thumbnails for viewing my photos?

    I am using Microsoft Windows Vista. I select Files> Get photos and Videos> From Files and Folders.  I select my photos and In my views I have a choice of different size icons, list, details and tiles.  The icons are a flower image. When I select an image to view it only appears as an extra large icon on the middle right side of the moniter.  I would like to view the thumbnail of the photo bfore I bring to my organizer.  The drop down menu doesn't have a choice for thumbnail.  

    Perhaps I need to supply more details.  I am using PSE9.  I haven't any problem importing the images into the Organizer as I just select the Icons and select "Get Media" or "Open" and they transfer over to the Organizer.  I would like to see the image as a thumbnail not an icon when when making the selection.  If I right click them, the Icon, and select open they will open in "Windows Live Photo Gallery".
    The icons are now listed on the left  side of the monitor about the right middle it states "Select A File To Preview".  When I select a file (icon) a large file (icon) appears in that area and it should be a thumbnail of the image. Somehow I can't locate the drop down menu taht permits me to make that selection.  I think it has something to do with my files being able to open in Windows Live Photo Gallery when right clicking and select Open.  Is the drop down menu only available in Windows 7?

  • When i revert to ver 29 i get pull down menus for searching after download of automatic 33.3 I can't get the drop down menu. I've tried to block the update

    when i use ver 29 i get past menu drop downs. when i get the automatic update to 33 or higher I can't get the pull down menu. I don't like to type in the search work every time I go to a web site. It should remember where I've been or at least let me keep ver 29 without automatic updating., I've tried to set the firewall not to update but it does it anyway. some firewall. Thanks if you can help this. I'll have to go to safe mode and revert to yesterday and download ver 29 again, I can do this everyday but that makes me not want to use firefox. I don't want to leave firefox. I like it. ! HELP?????

    in firefox 33 the search field on the homepage will now populate by search suggestions provided by the search engine once you start typing -this is why the dropdown with your entries from history is no longer there unfortunately...

  • Made a drop down menu. How can I get the drop down to fade in and out? !

    Hi guys!
    I've created a drop down menu (with the help of you legends on here! )...Now I just need it to animate so when the user hovers over the main menu item, the drop down fades in.
    Here's the HTML I have...
        <ul id="nav">
            <li><a href="#">Nav 1</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Nav 2</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Nav 3</a>
                <ul>
                    <li><a href="#">&raquo; Sub Menu 1</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">&raquo; Sub Menu 2</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">&raquo; Sub Menu 3</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">&raquo; Sub Menu 4</a></li>
                </ul>
            </li>
            <li><a href="#">Nav 5</a></li>
            <li><a href="#">Nav 6</a></li>
        </ul>
    ...and here's my CSS...
    ul#nav {width:920px; height:35px; list-style:none; padding:0; margin:0; background:url(navBg.jpg) repeat-x; z-index:999;}
    ul#nav li a:hover, #nav li a:active {background:url(navOn.jpg) repeat-x; text-decoration:none;}
    ul#nav li a {color:#E0E2E7; display:inline-block; float:left; margin:0; padding:10px 19px; width:auto; text-decoration:none;}
    * html #nav li {display:inline; float:left; }  /* for IE 6 */
    * + html #nav li {display:inline; float:left; }  /* for IE 7 */
    #nav ul {width:208px; left:-9999em; list-style:none; margin:35px 0; padding:0; position:absolute; z-index:999;}
    #nav li:hover ul {left:auto;}
    #nav li {float:left;}
    #nav li li a {width:190px; background-color:#efefef; color:#2e2e2e; padding:8px; margin:0; }
    #nav li li a:hover {background-color:#000; background-image:none; color:#FFF;}
    #nav li:hover {background:url(assets/images/frame/navOn.jpg);}
    From what I can make out, I assume I need either Javascript or JQuery...
    Does anyone know how I can get the drop down to fade in and out?
    Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.
    SM

    Yes, you'll need a client-side script to do fade-in/fade-out fx.  Look at jQuery Superfish.

  • How can I create a drop down menu from an array

    Hello all,
    I am attempting to create a subvi that allows the end user to add a part number to an .txt file, and assigns that part number a value than can be used to select one of two modes of communication to be used to write to a EEPROM.   I am using the "write key.vi" and the "read key.vi" to create and read the .txt file.  What I would like to do is is use "get section names.vi" to read all of the part numbers and dump them into a drop down menu after the end user generates the file using the subvi.
    I guess my question is how do I dump a 1D string array into a drop down menu.
    I have attached some semi-functional .vi's to give an idea of what i am attempting to do.

    Place a Ring control on your front panel, then create a property node on the block digram. You can wire the output array of "Get Section Names" to populate the Strings[ ] property of the Ring.
    Retrieve the specific string selected by the operator by wiring the Ring control to the Index Array function.
    Now is the right time to use %^<%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%3uZ>T
    If you don't hate time zones, you're not a real programmer.

  • How can i create a drop down menu for set qty in my store?

    I'm wondering how i can create a drop down menu for the qty module that sits on the individual product page. My client sells in quantities of 6 packs. I currently have the minimum order at 6 but i would like to give consumers the option for 6,12,18...and so forth. I was told that it could be accomplished? Hopefully someone can help me.

    Hi Chris -
    Thank you for your reply! I had seen your article before, and just now again attempted to follow it, but I get stuck. There are two things that I'm confused by.
    First off, toward the top, referring to the initial button, you say to add this interaction:
    ON CLICK; Play Transition to comboBox: selected
    ON ROLL OUT; Play Transition to comboBox normal if comboBox is in over state
    ON ROLL OVER; Play Transition to comboBox over if comboBox is in normal
    However, I do not see these transition options. When I select the button, the only interactions I have are to Play transistion to state, Play action sequence, Go to URL, and two for videos. So that's the first roadblock for me.
    But, trying to get passed that, I went down to the portion of the article that refers to adding interaction to the dataset items. Again, I don't get it, as I see no way to add interaction to a dataset item. When I open my design-time data menu, I do see the items, and am able to rename each item, add additional rows, and change the shape of the datalist layout. However, I see no way to add an interaction to a dataset item. I must be missing a step ... Can you help with this?
    Again, thank you!

  • I can't get the drop down menu in the search box in newest version.

    I just updated to the latest version (35.0) and can't get drop down menu. I couldn't get it in the last version either. I've filled everything out in the change settings page but still can't figure out how to get my choices to show up. (Please keep answers simple--I'm not a computer geek but I can follow clear directions.)

    I see it now. Thank you, Phillip. I read the help page before, but I think it would help if that page pointed out that the options you have selected will appear at the bottom of the list of suggestions after you type a search in the box. Also that would have been clearer if I did not select give suggestions. The key point for my understanding was that I had to type a search first in order to get the options to appear, which is the opposite of how it worked before. Definitely fix that help page to make that part clear. And thanks again, so much.

  • How do I get a Drop-down menu on back/forward button

    How do I get the old (FF3) Drop-down menu on the back/forward button, so I can go back/forward more than 1 page at a time?

    You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
    If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

  • How do I get a drop-down menu to choose SMTP when composing an email in Apple Mail?

    Apple Mail used to have a drop-down menu in the Composing Mail window to select the SMTP server to use.  It is no longer there, in Yosemite (10.10.1).  How do I get that back?

    I'm not sure what you are trying to say here. That's exactly what DW offers validation behaviors or Spry Validation for. Select the form element(s) required to validate, apply the behavior, set the options in the dialog. Done.

  • How do I get a drop down menu to auto default to option selected a value other than the default written in the javascript?

    I use web based software where I have to select from a drop down menu a particular option. However, I only ever use 1 option. Sometimes as much as 100 times a day. Is there anyway to get Firefox to auto select the same option every time? I don't have access to the source code so I cant change <option selected="selected" value="">.

    A possibility would be a Greasemonkey script to do this automatically or a JavaScript bookmarklet to do it manually.
    You would need to remove the selected="selected" from the currently selected option and set that attribute for the wanted option.
    You can test the bookmarklet here:
    *https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTML/Element/select
    <pre><nowiki>javascript:(function(){var d=document,s=d.getElementsByTagName('SELECT')[0],o=s.getElementsByTagName('OPTION'),S='selected',v='value1',i;for(i=0;O=o[i];i++){if(O.value==v){O.setAttribute(S,S);O.selected=true}else{O.removeAttribute(S);O.selected=false;}}})();</nowiki></pre>
    If there are more 'selects' then you need to adjust the element number [0] and you also need to adjust the value of the wanted option.
