How to disable dragging selected text to web search?

How to disable dragging selected text to web search?

Hmm, I haven't heard of that before. It's a new tab page with no relation to what you were dragging?
I wonder whether this might be a feature of one of your extensions. You can review them, and disable/remove any that are nonessential or unrecognized, here:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
If you disable extensions, usually a link will appear above at least one of them to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
If that makes no difference, you could test in Firefox's Safe Mode -- that's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Any difference?

  • How to disable drag-and-drop tabs to search bar?

    I always have a lot of tabs open in Firefox, and oftentimes I move tabs around, whether intentionally or habitually (and accidentally). The problem is that a lot of times the tab is dragged on/near the search bar and this causes Firefox to respond by copying the tab's address to the search and start searching.
    I would like to disable one or both of these. I never use this, especially since whatever address I'm at is already found and if I actually wanted to search for it then I would just copy it and search myself. I want to disable the auto search and if possible, also disable copying the address.

    It is possible for window creation, note this work around: [http://www.ghacks.net/2012/12/04/firefox-disable-tab-drag-and-drop-window-creation/] However I did not find one for general dragging/moving tabs.
    Another add on that provided more customization tricks is known as:

    Did this help?

    No; as I said, my problem is tabs and the search bar. I drag tabs into new windows practically everyday and the other doesn't seem to have anything related to this either. I only read the description and looked at the pictures and etc, so I did not download it to give it a thorough review prior to declining it as it doesn't seem at all related.
    Curious:
    Does that ghacks thing also disable the tab-search thing in addition to disabling new windows, or did you just post a completely different tab-drag-drop related issue?

  • How to create a OTR Text in Web Dynpro ?

    Hi All,
    Please help, How to create a OTR Text in Web Dynpro ?
    Urgent.
    Thanks in advance.
    Kaleem.

    Hi Kaleemullah,
    To create OTR Text, T-Code is SOTR_EDIT. If you run this transaction then one screen will appear. There you can choose Long Text or Short Text based on your
    Text. You can choose language also. In Text field you can enter your text. You can put WDYV in your Object Type field. In Text block Length can be increased to 25 as it may be problem if language conversion of Text happens. You must fill your package field and save the OTR.
    I hope you can be able to create OTR Text now.
    Best Regards,

  • How to disable the selection of "Title and logo URL of a SharePoint 2013 site" from browser

    how to disable the selection of "Title and logo URL of a SharePoint 2013 site" from browser or How can we able to set our custom default log to the sp2013 site using code.So that users are not allowed to change from browser again.
    Thanks &amp; Regards, Krishna

    Hi  Krishna,
    For your issue, you need to deploy a farm solution using HideCustomAction to hide site settings link. For example to hide “Title, description, and logo” link you can use below code:
    <Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
    <HideCustomAction
    GroupId="Customization"
    HideActionId = "ProjectSettings"
    Location = "Microsoft.SharePoint.SiteSettings">
    </HideCustomAction>
    </Elements>

  • How Do I Drag Select Multiple Comments or Annotations in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9

    How Do I Drag Select Multiple Comments or Annotations in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9

    Hello Sara,
    Yes, command+click will work to select multiple comments. However, I'm working with some PDFs that have a substantial number of comments and this is taking quite some time to select them all. Additionally, it is tricky to click some of them, and if I mis-click, all the selection work is undone and everything becomes deselected. I'd like to know if there is a simpler way to select many multiple comments, such as a simple drag selection in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.

  • How to mofidy the selection text for a report

    Dears,
    Do you know how to modify a selection text in the selection screen of a standard report, such as changing "Storage Location" in the selection screen of report MB5B to "storage Loc"?
    one of a way to realize it is to modify the text of relevant data element.
    except modifying the data element directly, It seems that use SE63 could do it, but I forgot how to use it.
    Thanks all for your reply.

    How do I highlight selected text in the Pages, Keynotes?

    To answer your question foor your iOS Device using Pages or Keynote for iOS: You can't highlight as you might in many note taking apps for iPad, etc.
    The best you can do at this point is to change the selected text's color by selecting the text > Style Menu (wrench) > Tap on the Font > Tap on the Color Box to reveal choices.
    If you would like to join the chorus of folks wishing such a feature were in Pages and Keynote, you can leave feedback for the people at Apple:

  • How do I get rid of "Ask Web Search"?

    How do i get rid of "Ask Web Search"?

    This sometimes sneaks in with a Java update, since it is something you have to opt out of during that process.
    This might seem like overkill, but I suggest a brief detour here:
    (1) Open the Windows '''Control Panel''', Uninstall a Program (or for XP Add/Remove Programs). After the list loads, click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help in smoking out undisclosed bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
    (2) Open Firefox's '''Add-ons page''' using either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Plugins. Set nonessential and unrecognized plugins to "Never Activate".
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable (or Remove, if possible) unrecognized and unwanted extensions.
    Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    (3) With the above removed, you can restore your own preferences. As applicable:
    (A) Preferred search engine. Change the icon at the left end of the search bar. See: [[Search bar - add, change and manage search engines on Firefox]].
    (B) Home page. These articles have more details on how:
    * [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
    * [[How to set the home page]]
    (C) New Tab page. There's a hidden setting for this:
    (i) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (ii) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (iii) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter your preferred page:
    * ''Page thumbnails (default)'' => about:newtab
    * ''Blank tab'' => about:blank
    * ''Built-in Firefox home page'' => about:home
    * ''Any other page'' => full URL to the page
    Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?
    Success?

  • Help - JEditorPane drag selected text behavior/problem

    Hi All,
    I'm working at adding new functionality to the JEditorPane. Everything was going ok, but I noticed this interesting behavior that hopefully there is a solution to.
    When you select some text in the JEditorPane with the mouse and then drag the selected text to another location, the text moves just fine. However, depeding on when you drag the text, something interesting happens.
    Here is the senerio. While the text is already selected you noticed the cursor blinking.
    (1) If you drag the selected text while the blinking cursor IS visible, the cursor will continue to blink after you drag the text to its destination.
    (2) If you drag the selected text while the blinking cursor IS NOT visible, the cursor will be invisible after you drag the text to its destination.
    So (2) is really the problem. The only way I've been able to get the cursor to start blinking again is to issue a cut, copy or paste method from the JEditorPane object.
    Has anyone else found this problem and maybe a solution to it. I've disabled all the extra stuff I extended on the JEditorPane class, but it didn't seem to make a difference.
    Thanks.
    Justin Circelli

    There are several approaches. You can add FocusListener to the drop target or drag source and put your code in focusGained() or focusLost() accordingly.
    Another way is to return focus to the drag source if DnD failed as you tried. First check whether mouseReleased(0 is invoked. If it's invoked try to put your code into SwingUtilities.invokeLater()

  • How to disable the AET button on Web UI?

    Hi all,
    Does anyone know how to disable the AET button in the Web UI? Our customer doesnu2019t want the end users to change any configuration and the only thing left for this is hide/disable the AET functionality.
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Kind regards,
    Alvaro

    Alvaro,
    The AET should not be visible to end users, especially not in the production system.
    This should be done by authorisation.
    If you are referring to the personalization, you can disable this in the businessrole by selecting a value for the parameter PERSONALIZATION.
    If there are no values available, you can maintain them in sm30 --> PERSCV_PROFILE.
    Hope this helps.
