How to create a 'Last Page Viewed' button

I would like to create a last page viewed button which can be placed at the footer of each page of a document.  I currently write user manuals running into hundreds of pages which all contain hyperlinks at various points.  For example, a list of drawings when clicked will jump to whichever drawing has been selected. In this case I need to provide the user with a method of jumping back to the original list.  As this drawing may also have a link from elsewhere in the manual  the button should take the user to the last viewed page rather than any specific location.
I hope this makes sense, any suggestions appreciated.

This has nothing to do with HTML.
In Form Edit mode, create your button on the first page, then go to its
Properties, Actions tab, and add a new Mouse Up action with the "Execute a
menu item" command. From the list that pops up select "View>Page
Navigation>Previous View". Set the button's caption and other properties
and then exit the Properties dialog. Now right-click the button and select
"Duplicate Across Pages". This will allow you to create identical copies of
this button on all the pages in the file.

  • How to create a last page

    Hello all.
    I am creating an adobe print form where the signature area should be shown at the bottom of the last page only.
    I am using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.1.
    Here are the steps I did so far:
    1. The master page contain the logo at the top of it. (Outside of the content area)
    2. The master page contain the page number at the bottom. (Outside of the content area)
    That way, the logo and the page number are shown on each pages.
    3. The design View, contain several subforms where the information is displayed.
    Now I need to know how I can create a Subform containing the signature box that will be displayed only at the bottom of the last page.
    If possible, I would like to avoid to reduce the content area to plug the signature box.
    So, if there is only one page, the signature box will be displayed at the bottom of the page before the page number and after the data from the design vew.
    If there is more than one page, the signature box will be displayed only at the bottom of the last page.
    I am new in the Adobe Form, so if possible, extensive explaination would be highly appreciated.

    Hello everyone.
    For everybody benefit, I do have a solution. I am not saying that it is the right solution but it did work for me.
    So, here it is:
    1. I had to create another master page (page 2)
    2. I had to copy the information of the master page (page 1) that I want to have copied on the second page. ( Logo, page numbet etc.)
    3. I created a subform containing the information that needs to be displayed on the last page only
    4. I selected the new master page (page 2), when to the object tab, pagination subtab and select the "last page (in page set)" option at the placement field.
    5. I selected the Master Page from the hiererchy tab, into the object tab, I selected the page set tab and in the printing field, I selected "Print on Front Side Only".
    I hope that can help somebody else.

  • How to create variant for table/view ?

    Hi,
    When I go through SM30, I find a radio button called variant. I don't know the effect.
    Can anyone tell me how to create variant for table / view ?
    I want to know when we need to create variant for table/view.
    Best regards,
    Chris Gu

    hi ,
    Whenever you start a program in which selection screens are defined, the system displays a set of input fields for database-specific and program-specific selections. To select a certain set of data, you enter an appropriate range of values.
    For further information about selection screens, refer to Selection Screens in the ABAP User's Guide.
    If you often run the same program with the same set of selections (for example, to create a monthly statistical report), you can save the values in a selection set called a variant
    Procedure
    To create a new variant:
           1.      On the ABAP Editor initial screen, enter the name of the program for which you want to create a variant, select Variants, and choose Change.
           2.      On the variant maintenance initial screen, enter the name of the variant to be created.
    Note the naming convention for variants (see below).
           3.      Choose Create.
    If the program has more than one selection screen, a dialog box for screen assignment appears. The dialog box does not appear if the program only has one selection screen. The selection screen appears in this case.
           4.      If there is more than one selection screen, select the screens for which you want to create the variant
    5.      Choose Continue.
    The (first) selection screen for the report appears.
    If your program has more than one selection screen, use the scroll buttons in the left-hand corner of the application toolbar to navigate between them and to fill the fields with values. If you keep scrolling forwards, the Continue button appears on the last selection screen.
           6.      Enter the desired selection values, including multiple selection and dynamic selection.
           7.      Choose Continue.

  • Rendering differences when "go to last page" navigation button is clicked

    Hi All,
    Critical issue here, apparently a new rendering bug in the crystal report viewer:
    In a framework 3.5 sp1 application (vb.net) using the Crystal Report Viewer, ***. version 12.0.2000.0 , file version 12.3.2002.753 (i.e. 2008 with sp3 installed and fp3.2 installed over that), I have a report that will render differently depending on whether or not the user clicks the "go to last page" button, or whether they just print/export/use single page advance navigation.
    The difference in rendering is that "report footer a"  (there are "g" of these) is not displayed.  This footer contains essential summary information for the grouped data above. 
    Related, but subtly different, is that the last group header/detail/group footer is not displayed if the details section is empty, again, IFF the go to last page button is clicked.  It renders correctly if go to last page is not used.
    The unique thing about the reporting implemenation in this app is that the fields/headers are dynamically positioned at runtime (based on user settings).  Similarly, the fonts, heights and visibility (i.e. SectionFormat.EnableSuppress) of group sections are also dynamically set at run time.  The ReportDocument object manipulation is done entirely in memory and is not (at least by me) persisted to disk before rendering in the viewer. 
    Is there a work around, programmatic or otherwise, other than removing the navigation buttons?  What assumptions is the rendering engine making about section size as it (apparently) short circuits sequential rendering when the go to last page button is clicked?
    Any clues would be greatly appreciated.
    Best,

    Hi Don,
    Thanks for the response.
    It's a winforms app. 
    The data access is through typed datasets that are filled on the client using linq to objects (i.e. not a connection to a remote db).  There is one main ds (which has the report's detail data).  There are also 5 unrelated subreport ds's that are used to fill standard header/footer information.
    I can export the report to an rpt file through the app, but the data is never included.  Haven't found a way to get data to save with rpt file.  ReportOption save data with report is checked for the report, but the actual data never gets saved into the rpt file. 
    Formatting of report, post programattic manipulation, is as I expect and appears identical irrespective of clicking the "go to last page" nav button.
    I would hazard a guess that it's not a caching issue since the rendering bug occurs only if the go to last page (GTLP from now on)  button is clicked BEFORE the report has been navigated through sequentially or exported.  Once exported or single-page advanced through, the report renders correctly (i.e., the GTLP  appears to be reading from the cache, and not running it's own rendering scheme). 
    Is there a way to dump the cache manually?  At the very least I could dump the cache before printing/exporting to ensure that the export  function creates a fresh (and bug free) rendering.  It is the output to paper/pdf etc that is most critical.  If there's a bit of stupidity on screen, I can convince my clients to laugh this off as a bit of silly screen junk, but the externalization of the data (pdf or print) must be reliable.
    Cheers,
    T

  • How to create a One Page checkout

    Hello nice people,
    Does anybody knows how to create a ONE-PAGE Check Out Process in Online Shop Layout?
    Thanks in advance

    "I can resolve the problem if I can insert one page (or step) after
    "registration - buy". This would be a "summary" page where the customer has
    the last opportunity tu check out all his data and, if it is needed, to
    correct his order, billing address, shipping, the way of payment"
    <<< The only way to do this is with JS. You can use jQuery's .load() method
    to load your cart into the registration layout. You'll have to do some
    parsing of that cart table to obtain things like product name, quantity etc
    and present this in some kind of summary. Parsing tables in jQuery is not a
    nice task, so if you're going to embark onto producing this kind of summary
    you may want to get rid off the table from the cart and simple throw in
    some divs and tags which will help you parse the cart nicely. That mans
    you'll have to construct the layout for the cart though using JS.
    Example of alternative cart layout:
    It renders like this:
    product one
    (S)
    product one
    (M)
    onchange="UpdateItemQuantity(this.value,231502,234492,6737768,183427,'','US');return
    false;" class="cartInputText" type="text" value="1">
    onchange="UpdateItemQuantity(this.value,231502,234492,6737768,183428,'','US');return
    false;" class="cartInputText" type="text" value="3">
    $10.00
    $45.00
    $55.00
    You can see that this is much nicer to read and you can then construct your
    own data structure that will hold this info and render it it whichever way
    you want to. You can even write it back as a table where each product is in
    its own row. You may want to look at something that gives you template.
    model, controller like ember.js.
    Anyway, I hope that helps somewhat.
    Cheers,
    M

  • Suddenly Firefox starts with the last page viewed.

    I'm running Firefox 24.0 on Windows 7. Suddenly when I start Firefox I wind up on the last page viewed, tabs and all. I went to Options, set it to blank. Went to about:config and made the change there. No luck.
    I'm not certain, but I think this started with this week's Microsoft download.

    You can check if you have an user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that sets the browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once pref to true.

    Hi
    You have to check the system variable &NEXTPAGE&, if it's 0 it means you're in the last page.
    From SAP Help:
    This symbol is used to print the number of the following page. The output format is the same as with &PAGE& .
    Note that on the last page of the output, in each window that is not of type MAIN, &NEXTPAGE& has the value 0.

  • How to create EVENTS for a View Cluster.

    Hi Tech Gurus,
    I have created a view cluster on 5 tables. I need to do a validation and this can be done by using events. But i am unable to create a EVENT for the View Cluster. Could anyone please tell me how to create events for a View Cluster.
    Thanks in advance for your esteemed replies.
    Regards,
    Raghavendra Goutham P.

    Hello Pasapula
    When you are in the View Cluster maintenance dialog (SE54) click on dialog "Events".
    Below the field for the view cluster you have an additional field <b>FORM routines main program</b>. There you have to add the main program containing the FORM routines called by the VC events.
    For example: I had defined a normal report containing an include with all the FORM routines. The report contains only the following lines of coding:
    report zus_0120_u1.
    * Common Data und access routines for user exits in VC maintenance
    include LSVCMCOD.
    include  zus_0120_f1. "FORM routines for VC events
    Now in the "Events" dialog of the view cluster maintenance you assign your FORM routines to the events.
