How do I create timed dialog box, so if no selection is made in the pop up within 10 seconds it goes away?

I would like the dialog box to ask the user to select "OK" or "Cancel" if no activity within 10 seconds the dialog box goes away.
Thanks.

In 15 years, I have never ported my code to a different platform, nor has anyone tried to port my code to a different platform. While my case is not indicative of everyone's, the insistence of platform independence is widely overblown since I dare say most of us will never see code moved.
What's easier - trying to figure out how to write your own code (especially if it is something you plan to reuse and especially if you are a more inexperienced programmer), or using a canned API function that is already ready to be dropped into your code, offers additional functionality that isn't easily available in LabVIEW? Not to mention that the message box looks like every single message box a user is used to seeing on the platform. It supports the standard Windows sounds for a message, the standard Windows icons can be included, and modality beyond LabVIEW is supported as well.

You can use an undcoumented Windows function (assuming you're using Windows). It will display a message box for a fixed time ( a value of 0 means it will not disappear). I posted a zip file of code that calls this function in this thread:

I'm not sure that tying the code to a particular platform is the best way to go.
Plus, it just seems to be way easier to use an event structure with a timeout.

Using applescript how do i create a dialog box and have several possible inputs lead to the same result not using the "else" command

What i am trying to do is create a program that lets the user have a small conversation with the computer but i don't want to use "else" and list the possible inputs seperatley and have to write the same thing over and over again. does anyone know of a way i can list possible inputs together and have them lead to the same result?

Your script asks the question twice because that's what you tell it to.
The first line of your script asks the question:
display dialog "hey" default answer ""
then you define your lists:
set mylist to ("hi", "hey")
set mylist2 to ("sup", "yo")
Then you ask the question again. This time you capture the result in theanswer:
set theanswer to text returned of (display dialog "hey" default answer "")
The simple solution is to nix the first line of your script, since it serves no useful purpose.
Then, your logic on checking the answer is flawed. If you look at the script in a formatted/indented manner you'll see:
if theanswer is in mylist then
display dialog "what's up"
if theanswer is in mylist2 then
display dialog "dude"
end if
end if
where you can see that theanswer has to be in mylist for any of the rest of this code to run - that includes checking to see if theanswer is in mylist2.
You need to separate this, either into two separate if statements:
if theanswer is in mylist then
display dialog "what's up"
end if
if theanswer is in mylist2 then
display dialog "dude"
end if
or by using an else statement:
if theanswer is in mylist then
display dialog "what's up"
else if theanswer is in mylist2 then
display dialog "dude"
end if
In the first case both checks are performed. In the second case, the second check is only performed if the first one fails (i.e. theanswer has to NOT be in mylist in order for mylist2 to be checked)

Infopath submit - how to hide - Save as dialog box - You can only save this file to the current site

HI,
I have a infopath form. In the submit options, i have used the below:
submit options -
sharepoint document library
Data connection - Sharepoint Library Submit
Doc library - lib location
File name: concat("User Info - ", ResourceName, "-", PersonalID)
Allow overwrite if file exists is checked.
When I try to save a record, I am getting a popup:
Save As:
You can only save this file to the current site
File Name: textbox
save location: doc lib.
save, cancel buttons.
How to override this save as option(save as option should not be shown to user), and save the file using the file name mentioned?
Thanks

Are you clicking "Save" when you're using the form or "Submit"??
You should be using "Submit" and it will ... submit your form to the document library with the file name you specified.
To disable the "Save" button, click on "File" then "Form Options". Under the "Filler Features" area you can uncheck the box beside "Save and Save As". Click OK then re-publish your form.

How to create conditional dialog box

Hi Everyone
I am creating a database application in APEX 4.0. In that application a page requires a dialog box, which has to appear when a user clicks on Submit button.
It has to consider validations and appear after validations and submit button is clicked. Here the Submit button submits the entire page after validations by updating the database table.
Please help me out how to create a dialog box which has to appear by the click of Submit button.
Thanks in advance

Hi Kiran
Thanks for responding,
Sorry for providing the complete details.
Provided link is much more helpful, but its not meeting my needs. My requirement is to just show a popup box after the user clicks on submit button.
Saying 'Thank you for answering' if he is done with all questions or if he has more questions to answer pop up with different message 'You have more questions to answer'.
In both the cases page as to get submitted when clicked on Submit button.
Thanks in advance

Can't find "Create Slideshow" dialog box.

I have Premiere Elements 7, and am trying to create a slideshow. The Help page refers to a "Create Slideshow" dialog box, but I don't see that anywhere. I've looked through every menu, every icon, and tried right clicking on the photos that were dragged down to the timeline, but no slideshow option.
I've done slideshows manually using PE7 before, but it's a big pain having to manually reset the duration of each slide, rather than changing the default somehow.
Thanks!
Bennett

There are actually four different ways to build slideshows in Premiere Elements, and I show you how to do each in my books.
But I think you're referring to the slideshow creator on the Project panel. To use it, select several stills or clips in the Project panel (by selecting as you hold down the Ctrl or Shift key) and right-click. This will open the panel I think you're looking for.

It is possible that anti-virus software is corrupting downloaded files or is interfering otherwise.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
See:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_save_or_download_files
You can try to set the browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone pref on the <b>about:config</b> page to false.

Hi,
I have not tried using javascript in destination URI as suggested by Mukul.
I have tried the below code for opening a page as dialog box.
You can try it for your requirement by creating a dialog page of your own, say XXDialogPage (with OK and Cancel button)
StringBuffer l_buffer = new StringBuffer();
l_buffer.append("javascript:mywin = openWindow(top, '");
String url = "/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?page=/xx/oracle/apps/fnd/dialog/webui/OADialogPG";
OAUrl popupUrl = new OAUrl(url, OAWebBeanConstants.ADD_BREAD_CRUMB_SAVE );
String strUrl = popupUrl.createURL(pageContext);
l_buffer.append(strUrl.toString());
l_buffer.append("', 'lovWindow', {width:500, height:500},false,'dialog',null);");
pageContext.putJavaScriptFunction("SomeName",l_buffer.toString());
In dialog page's controller, you can forward it to the page onc ethe user selects OK or Cancel.
Pass the selected value back to the main page and further you can use it for deleting.
Regards.

How to develop a file dialog box in a oracle forms

please help me its an urgent task,
how to develop a file dialog box in a oracle 6i forms
in html we will use <input type ="file"/> to open a dialog box,so that we can upload file to the server .similarly how to upload a file using oracle.

For Windows there is a library that comes with forms d2kwutil.pll that contains a package win_api_dialog. use the open_file procedure.
NOTE******** when you select a file from whatever windows directory you choose, it will change your working directory to that directory so right after that you will need to reassign your working directory back to what it originally was.
Also, you will need to have d2kwut60.dll in the same directory as your d2kwutil.pll. Both come with Developer.
Example code is
v_runpath := win_api_environment.get_working_directory(TRUE);
v_filename := win_api_dialog.open_file('Find File','C:\','*.*',TRUE, 0, TRUE);
win_api_environment.set_working_directory(v_runpath,true);
Hope this helps

How we can make CQ dialog box movable on page like sidestick?

Hello All,
How we can make CQ dialog box movable on page like sidestick.
Should we have to use any property for that.
Please tell me if any onw know this ticks.
Thanks a ton in advance...

You could use dialogMode property configured under cq:editConfig node.
dialogMode : floating

This should make your component dialog float and be movable.

30EA3 - multiple errors in "Create Tablespace" dialog box

I have noticed the following errors in the "Create Tablespace" dialog box (in the DBA view).
1) In the "File Specifications" tab, if you try to use a period in the file name (for example "data01.dbf") , you get an error message "Validation Failed: Name DATA01.DBF contains an illegal character."
2) The tool is automatically changing the case of the file name to all upper case. You can work around this by enclosing the file name in quotes, but you shouldn't have to do that.
Overall, I've been real happy with the product, and that Oracle keeps improving it.

I've also run into this, recently, in version 3 on Windows 7 (db is version 10g on Solaris 10/SPARC64). Although the error message is now "Name TABLESPACENAME.DBF contains an illegal character." Also found the described capitalization overriding what user types in.
