How to get dimensions information to appear next to the mouse cursor when drawing/ making selections

Hello,
On a previous computer I used Illustrator for, when I would draw or make selections, next to the cursor in a small black box with white text, there would be the dimenstions information. It was similar to what you'd find in the Window>Info panel but simplified and would let you know how big the selection you're making is. I've looked all over the Preferences and can't find it. I can't tell if I was imagining it somehow or what, but I'm hoping someone knows what I'm talking about and knows where to find it. Thanks.

  • Get rid of the mouse cursor when on desktop touch devices

    Hi there,
    I'm using sap.ui.commons controls to build my application. However, this application will sometimes be used on touch devices like large touch screen HDTV connected to a desktop Windows PC.
    When clicking on a button, the button gets focussed. However, as clicking on a control moves the mouse cursor, too, the button gets a mouse over look and feel and the focus style applied.
    Is there a way to disable the mouse over events and style sheets for desktop controls in an easy way? I want to get a similar behaviour like using an application on a device without a pointer (like a tablet or smartphone). No mouse over, no focus.
    Regards
    Tobias

    Hey Tobias,
    have a look at this Thread: javascript - Disable hover effects on mobile browsers - Stack Overflow
    It helped me and might contain a solution to your problem as well!

  • How To Get Title Information to appear in iPhoto Book ?

    Is there a book format that allows the title information to appear in the pages of a book ?
    I would like to use " Family Album " format. Or any format that will allow the titles I have created to appear on the page of the book.

    There is only one theme that will allow that type of info for each photo, Folio. iPhoto 6 had several themes but they are no longer available.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • How to get Contact Information to Appear on Global Address Book

    Greetings,
    We are using Exchange 2007 and Office 2010 and 2013 throughout our company.  When I enter information in a to User Profile either on our AD or Exchange Management Console such as Phone Extension or Fax Number, that information does not appear in the
    Global Address Book.  I see no radio buttons, check boxes, or any thing else to use that would indicate the information appears for other end-users seeking addition contact info.  Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated.

    If this is a highly available deployment of 2007 utilizing CCR, you'll need to ensure that your OAB generation cluster has the correct server (the current quorum owner) set as the distribution point in the registry.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd285503(v=exchg.80).aspx
     If not, try running the following PowerShell command and check the GAL (from OWA or with non-cached Outlook) for the updates:

    Apple's iPhone Warranty is referring to hardware modifications, because it is just a hardware warranty. It explicitly denies covering software, even to the point of saying even the iPhone OS is not covered by any warranty.
    When you update the iPhone software to 1.1.1 or later you'll see this message
    "Apple has discovered that some of the unauthorized unlocking programs available on the Internet may cause irreparable damage to the iPhone's software.

  • How do I delete photos and photo albums from my iPhone? The instructions given do not work. No "delete" symbol appears next to the album name, and no trash can icon appears below most of the pictures the computer just put on my new iPhone 4.

    How do I delete photos and photo albums from my iPhone 4? The instructions given do not work. No "delete" symbol appears next to the album name when I press "Edit," and no trash can icon for me to click appears below most of the individual photos in the albums the computer just loaded on my new iPhone 4. When I synced the new phone the computer added these photo albums without permission from me. They are now taking up about 3 GB of memory on my phone. I would like very much to get rid of these photos from the phone. How do I do this?

    To delete photos from your device
    In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Sync photos from."
    On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
    On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Click Apply.

  • Custom icon NEXT TO the mousec cursor

    I've been pondering on how to make it possible to add a custom icon next to the mouse cursor.
    When the user clicks on a specific component in the gui and starts to "drag" it, an icon should be attached to the mouse cursor that shows that the component is attached to it. Sort of like a tiny icon below the cursor to the right.
    Anyone done this and can share some info?

    You could put a java2d to draw a picture next to the mouse.
    if you made this transparent and on top of everything then that wod work.
    OR
    You could change the mouses image to the icon. But i dont know how you would reposition it.

    You should be storing everything on your computer and you should always backup your computer.  Have you failed to do these things?
    If so, not good, then you can redownload some iTunes purchases in some countries.  Open iTunes store, click Purchased under Quick links

  • How to get channel information using RDA

    I'm attempting to build my VIs in such a way that I have the user only supply the channel names while trying to get the device number using "Get Channel Information.vi". I found the "Virtual Channel Configurator.vi" on this site, which is fairly close to what I wanted.
    However there is one problem, I can't get Get Channel Information to work using RDA channels (error -10003). Is there a reason, or better, a solution for this?

    Dear Justin,
    I am having a similar problem as in this thread, I am sending a screen
    shot of the program I am using.  I am using  LabView 8, NI
    DAQmx 8, PXI-6259 Meries card. It is a real time remote system and not
    connected to my computer on which I am making the programs.
    I want the pulses to appear on the output terminal that I choose, but
    when I browse in the counter1(s), the global virtual channels that I
    made in the remote system  icon in Max do not appear?
    how can I make them appear so I can send the pulse signal to that output termainal?
    thanx.

    Did you already try to reset the iPod by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data.
    If this does not work, try to reset the network settings in Settings/General/Reset. After that you'll have to put in the passwords for all known networks again.

  • Deleted cell number appears (along with the edited number) when sending a text.  How do I get rid of it?

    Deleted cell number appears (along with the edited number) when sending a text.  How do I get rid of it?

    It has nothing to do with iOS 6. It's always been that way. Given that it's been this way for so long, one assumes that Apple knows about it and has their own reasons for not changing it.
    Restore the phone as new, not from back up to delete the numbers. Or, wait until the cache gets overwritten.
    Best of luck.

    - To see how many scheduling agreement is created for a given period, use VA05, click on [Further sel criteria] and tick the box against [Sales Document type]  Now input the scheduling agreement type and execute.  You will get list of all scheduling agreements created within the specified period.
    - You can see how many line items are created in a sale order for a given period via VA05.
