  • Is there an ipad app that let's u save web articles as PDFs?

    Is there an ipad app that let's u save web articles as PDFs?

    The screen capture is not a good solution because most articles are longer than the screen and require scrolling. I don't know of any way to do this at present. Some web articles have a "print" option which optimizes the article's format for printing, at which point instead of printing, you can opt to save the article as a pdf. But for now, this is only doable on a desktop. Perhaps if printing becomes available for the iPad, this might work.

  • How to make a control to let the user to select a type of line?

    Dear All,
    I want to make a control to let the user can select a type of line from some types. Just like selecting the line type of plot in the graph.
    Is there any good way to do it, or is there any examples?
    Thank you.

    Hello,
    I think you can use a pict ring as selector and the detect value changes of that indicator to apply the new plot style on the graph using property nodes.
    Let me know if you need more help on this

  • HT4509 I want to make an app that utilizes the international keyboard function but so that users can more easily select numbers. Is this possible?

    Is it possible to utilize that international keyboard function so that a user can select numbers more easily. Just like using for emoticons but rather have an easier way to select numbers.

    Hi j.v.
    Have you tried the Linksys forums? I think you may get more help from a network type forum that uses the WAP54G than the Apple forums.

  • Is there a way to make a form that allows the user to select multiple answers from a dropdown?

    Hi,
    I work for a school that is building a form right now, and one thing we would like to do is have a list of teachers that can be selected from a drop down menu, effectively allowing the user to choose four or five from a list of twelve. Is there a way to do this? I see checkboxes, but that doesn't seem like a good answer for something that has twelve choices. I rolled through the other examples, and they all were single choice.
    Thanks,
    Lee

    Hi Ariel,
    Thanks for responding. I've added the list box, but I'm not sure how to select two options that aren't right on top of each other. Is it possible to add check boxes? I've also added a scroll bar to make it easier to browse. I've included a screenshot to show what it looks like. 
    Thanks for being patient. I'm new at this!

  • Forms: how to make it so that when the user clicks something, another form pops up?

    Sorry if that's confusing, but like how for example, you have:
    ADDRESS: _________________________  +another address
    & then if the user typed in information into the address field and wanted another address, it would look like:
    ADDRESS: __________________________
    ADDRESS: __________________________ +another address
    & so on... is there a way to do this?

    What you want is something like this

  • Can I create a fillable PDF that allows the user to attach a file to the submitted form?

    There are suggestions in the Help documentation and on this site that indicate it is possible to attach files to a fillable PDF form that is being submitted. But I do not see any instructions for adding this functionality to a form. I am using Acrobat 9 Pro to create my form. I have a Submit button with an Action/Menu Item/Submit a form option, and the URL link for the submission is a local coldfusion file with a #FDF suffix. The export format is HTML. The form also contains a hidden EMAILTO field, with an Options/DefaultValue option identifying the recipient's email address. (I'm guessing the local cfm file uses this field.) There is also a hidden URL field in the form, and its Options/DefaultValue specifies the URL of the fillable form itself. (Perhaps the local cfm file uses this field too.)
    How can I add functionality to this form, using Adobe/PDF, to allow the user who submits the form to attach a file to the submission?

    You have to first configure a text field so it can be used for file selection. You do this on the Options tab of the field properties dialog. In order to select the corresponding check box, make sure only the "Scroll long text" option is selected.
    You then can set up a button that has the following JavaScript attached to the Mouse Up event:
    // Mouse Up script for button
    getField("upload_text_field").browseForFileToSubmit();
    Replace "upload_text_field" with the actual name of the file selection text field.

  • Is this how I would go about letting the user choose a source file and a de

    Hello everyone.
    I wasn't sure on how I would do this but what I want is from a drop down menu (which I already have created) they are going to choose somthing.
    Once they choose somthing I want it to bring up another window that has a layout like this:
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
    JLabel->Source:[                            ] (browse) <--JButton|
    JLabel->Destination:[                      ] (browse) <---JButton|
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
    So this new window I want to show up, what would it be? Is it just a JPannel or a JFrame with JButtons?

    It might actually be more difficult the more I look at JDialog.
    Because what I need is, to allow the user to select a destination directory and a source directory so when they click the button, it will open up a JFileChooser. whatever they pick, I need the window to stay up until both directory's are selected (A source and a destination)
    Then I'll have an Ok button that will close the window.
    THen I'll use their input source/destination strings and do my other processing with that.

  • A suggestion for the mouse setting through persistence via SkyDrive/OneDrive: Add a check button to let the user tell if the mouse settings should be "restored" every time the user logs in a "different" computer using the same Microsoft Account.

    Every time I log in one of my 2 computers with Microsoft Account, I have to change the main button (left/right) setting, because the settings persistence via SkyDrive/OneDrive.
    I have different main mouse button settings in the computers.
    Those settings shouldn't be changed, if the account is not a new one, after all, if the user has different settings in old accounts, it means there must be a reason to do it (because of hardware and/or furniture restriction).
    Thus, a check button in the mouse settings' window that let the user tell if it should be changed or not would be welcomed.

  • Are you aware that people make thrash apps beginning with the AAA letter just to be the first app you see in AppStore, so its harder to find the true apps with all that thrash?

    Are you aware that people make thrash apps beginning with the AA letter so they can be found before the other good apps? Its now hard to properly scroll the new app with all the thrash.

    Am I aware? Yes. But I am just another Apple user and developer. Is Apple aware? Does Apple care? You need to tell Apple that you are aware and you care by sending feedback: https://www.apple.com/feedback/
    Of course, the fact that Apple doesn't even have a feedback category for the App Store might be some indication of how much they care.

  • How to make an app that uses plugins???

    Hello All,
    I am relatively new to programing and i have never done some thing like this so what i would like to know is.
    How can i make an app that can get/load plugins from a folder and then use them to copy files from one place to another(i got he copy part down just need the plugin part.
    And then i need to know how to parse the location of the file that needs to be copied and the folder it needs to be copied to into the plugin.
    Thanks in advance.

    What you do it to define a common interface which plugins have to implement. Typically you place the .class files for the plugins in a special directory (not on the class path) and you create a URLClassLoader to load the plugin classes. Class names (FQNs) for plugins are usually in some kind of configuration file.
    One you load the class you'll usually create a single instance (with Class.newInstance()) and cast it to the common interface. It's simpler to use a no-args constructor and define some kind of initialize method in the interface to initialise the plugin. Typically you pass some kind of context object when you initialize the plugin, which the plugin can use to comunicate with the framework.

  • I need to launch an app that needs java runtime enviro 1.5. It is saying that it is not installed on my mac but I think it is.

    I need to launch an app that requires javaruntime 1.5. My mac is saying that it is not installed but when i go into utilities, it looks like it is.
    Don't know where to go from here.
    I have version 10.7.3.

    I believe that i have the latest version of Java runtime. But my app should be running on it but its not.
    Well, either you don't actually have Java, as you think you do, or the app won't run in the latest Java runtime.  Try entering the following command in the Terminal (found in /Applications/Utilities):
    java -version
    If that causes an install window to appear, you don't have Java at all.
    If it displays a version number, make a note of that version, and ask the developer of the app whether it should run in that version of Java.

    When I open Muse, I get a message that a new update is available.  When I hit install it just closes and nothing happens.  Then I got a message  I needed Adobe Creative Cloud App to resolve the issue.  I downloaded a copy of Creative Cloud desktop but it says that my Muse is up to date.  It was last updated in May but you have a new update today and it will not update.  I thought maybe I am not suppose to have the Creative Cloud update because all I have is the individual app Muse and the photography program.  So I uninstalled the CC desktop.  Then when I open Muse it says I need the CC desktop to help with the update.  So I get stopped either way.  Now I also had a Pre-Release Muse on my computer and I don't know if that complicated things.  Please advise.

    All future installs/updates of Muse (and most other Adobe apps) are through the Creative Cloud desktop app. Thus you do need to have it installed.
    Are you on Windows or Mac? What OS version?
