don't get me wrong we have them all over the place... I added them in while i was waiting here and had some issues.You might also want to check out BalloonTips , depending on what you're going for and the freedom you have with 3rd party libraries.

  • Keyboard shortcuts not working while mouse over title-bar

    most of the time, while mouse is over the top title bar, keyboard shortcuts (like Ctrl+W, Ctrl+T, Alt+D) are not working.
    This is a strange behaviour that happens only after i migrated to linux (ubuntu 10.10)
    Sometimes, after i try the shortcuts a few times, on middle of the screen also, then suddenly it works also when the mouse is on the title bar. It's pretty strange...

    Well, that's not the case here.
    I tried to focus on text field, and the keyboard shortcuts does work, so that's obviously not the case here.
    Sometimes the address bar is selected and i can write there, but when the mouse go over the top title, it suddenly stops reacting.
    And the Alt+D and Ctrl+T are not working doesn't matter if a text field is selected.
    BTW, sometimes it does work, it almost seems like an intermittent problem.

  • Curious sound in Safari while mousing over bookmarks bar

    I noticed it today at about 1:55 am: whenever my mouse entered the space over either of 2 buttons in the bookmarks bar that happened to be for FOLDERS, the computer played a short sound. It's pitch was C3 and it could best be described as a "saw hit". It was none of the system beeps. It did not occur consistently, but maybe in about 2/3 - 3/4 of the times. The site I was reading happened to be an article on Beliefnet. I never pressed the folder buttons to see what would happen (because I was trying to figure out the pattern first). It did not occur over any of the buttons that were straight LINKS. After 1:57 it never happened again. (going back to Beliefnet later had no effect either).
    I have 10.4.6, Safari is Version 2.0.3 (417.9.2)
    Anyone has any idea what was going on?
    Cube, 2 ibooks   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    No, it stopped happening after the said time completely. It occurred only over the 2 buttons that were folders.
    I don't think it had to do with the site I was on.
    I got the feeling that it was either some "easter egg" type thing or some virus or something like that, i.e. a code that is activated by some constellation of things. I never heard that sound before or after, however it could be a GarageBand sound - but then how/why would it be activated in Safari?
    A mystery to me.
    BTW, I meant to write "its pitch" and not "it's pitch".

  • FAQ: How do I make a hand cursor display on rollover or mouse over?

    You can make a component in your application, for example a button or custom component, display a pointing finger cursor when a user's mouse rolls over it. Select the component, and in the Appearance section of the Properties panel, check Hand cursor.
    Read the quick tip on FlashCats.

    Hi there
    Another approach is to use a Rollover Caption. Just remove any text and configure the caption as transparent. Then layer the Rollover area over the part where you want the hand to change to a cursor. The net effect will be that the cursor change will occur. Clicking will then result in triggering the underlying Submit button, which appers to be invisible and layered over an image.
    Cheers... Rick

  • While Mouse Over

    Hi,
    I've been trying to figure this out for days now and am finally asking for help.
    I have a row of thumbnails with arrow on either side.  The thumbnails are animated and masked to created a scrolling effect.  What I want to do is have that animation play forward or backward when the mouse is over one arrow or the other.  I've been able to do the effect I want with Event.ENTER _FRAME and then calling that function with an if statment based on mouse position > or < a given value to go the next frame or the previous frame. When I do that it keeps going to the next frame or previouse frame as long as the if statment is true.  The problem is I want to do this with MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, but when I do that it just goes one frame and doesn't continue to do so until I take the mouse off and put it over the arrow again.  Is there a way to say that while the mouse is over the arrow to keep going to the next or previous frame. Below is the code I have.
    rtthumb.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, rtscroll, false,0,true);
    lftthumb.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, lftscroll, false,0,true);
    function rtscroll(e:MouseEvent) :void{
            nextFrame();
    function lftscroll(e:MouseEvent) :void{
             prevFrame();
    s
    I want this to continue to go to the next frame or previous frame until I take the mouse off the associated object.
    Thanks

    rtthumb.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, rtscroll, false,0,true);
    lftthumb.addEventListener (MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, lftscroll, false,0,true);
    function rtscroll(e:MouseEvent) :void{
    addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, efFunctionRight);
    //nextFrame();
    function lftscroll(e:MouseEvent) :void{
    addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, efFunctionLeft);
    //prevFrame();
    function efFunctionRight(e:Event):void{
    nextFrame();
    function efFunctionLeft(e:Event):void{
    prevFrame();
    and repeat the process as kglad mentioned for the Mouse_Out events

  • Bookmarks and tab titles display garbled text or text from another bookmark until moused over

    I just upgraded to Windows 8 and loaded Firefox 18 - I imported my bookmarks HTML file and the bookmarks on the left display either garbage or the wrong title until I mouse over them.

  • How to get mouse over shape to display data in Visio 2013?

    Hi Visio pros,
    I am required to create a diagram of our servers rack setup and will be publishing to a Web page using Visio 2013.
    The goal is to mouse over the server shape and have the data be displayed. I have followed arguably every solution on the internet. I am either doing it wrong, or it might be outdated information.
    I'm hoping Paul Herber, or other Visio pros would be able to help me with this situation as I am on a tight schedule and have exhausted my resources.
    Things I have tried:
    user.visEquivTitle in ShapeSheet
    http://visualsignals.typepad.co.uk/vislog/2012/02/no-mouseover-with-visequivtitle.html
    and
    prop.(data name) in the comments within the miscellaneous section of the ShapeSheet.

    Hi Sir!
    I am open to the possibility that I may have done something wrong as I am very new to Visio.
    Here are the steps I followed:
    http://visio.mvps.org/ShapeSheet/
    Browser that I am using is Internet Explorer since I ran into problems with Google Chrome.
    However, after more reading I noticed the User.visEquivTitle provides a tooltip. If it is what I think it is, which is a small yellow box displaying a string, my employer would not want that.
    We're looking for something that will provide an aesthetic display of data after mouse over onto the shape.
    Thank you very much for your help.

  • Mouse over and Mouse Click function

    Hi,
    I have to add a mouse over event and mouse click event in my rectangles that I draw while taking the values from an input file. Now since I am taking rectangle height and width from the input text file as well I also want to take a text value to be shown while moving a mouse over a particular rectangle from my input file. Also when he clicks on that rectangle the height and width of that particular rectangle only should be displayed (re-adjusted).
    Like suppose my input file has 3 fields:-
    Height   Width  Test_To_Show
    10          23         Hello
    20          44         ByeNow When my paint component draws these 2 rectangles and a user moves his mouse over the rectangle he should see text message attached to it:- Like for first row 10, 23 he should see "Hello". In this case when he clicks on this rectangle the picture should read just to show only 10 and 20 as height and width. Now the problem is I am confused where to add the mouse and mouse click event function.
    Some of my code looks like this in paintcomponent method:-
            for(int i=0; i<myobject.size(); i++){
                Coloring fc = myobject.get(i);
                GradientPaint gpi = new GradientPaint(0, 0,c.getColor() , 0, 20, Color.white, true);
                g2d.setPaint(gpi);
                g2d.drawRect(fc.value1, 29, fc.mywidth, 83);
                g2d.fillRect(fc.value1, 29, fc.mywidth, 83);
                                                }Where should I attach the mouse event to g2d object / fc / myobject ? I am not sure since I am using mouseover function for the first time.
    Thanks

    I am planning to add these 2 in my paint component method
                fc.addMouseMotionListener(this);
                fc.addMouseListener(this);and then create 2 functions like this :-
          public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e) {
                  //I will be reading from a file and then pass the string that I want to show as text while mouse over
                   String s = // takes value from the inpuf file.
                      fc.setText(s);
    public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
                 //same way reading from the file ... Not sure how I will do this one
                 }Would it be the correct way to do it ? I am doing mouse over functions for the first time so donno much about there usage.
    Thanks

  • Creating a popup on mouse over in bar graph

    Hi,
    I want to create a popup using mouse over event on bar graph but I didn't find corresponding property in the property inspector. Is it possible to display a popup on mouse over in bar graph?
    At present I am able to create a popup in the backing bean based on click event. I want to align it to the bar in the graph which was clicked. But now, it is being aligned to the bar graph as a whole(like above the graph , below the graph) when I use "RichPopup.PopupHints.HintTypes.HINT_ALIGN_ID, source". Is there a way to align it to the particular bar?
    Any help is greatly appreciated
    Thank you,
    KK

    Hi,
    don't think you can align it to an area within a component. The align id property expects a component reference. Note that mouse over on a bar graph doesn't select the bar, which means that the data in the binding layer is not set to current (just in case that the data in the popup is meant to be dependent)

  • How to respond to mouse over link inside textarea component?

    I want to respond to the content of a link inside htmlText
    propery of textarea, when the user move the mouse over the link,
    without clicking on it. is there a simple way to do so with flex?

    I found a solution to this.
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=60&catid=582&threadid =1325639&enterthread=y
    What you do is use
    itemRollOver and the event.itemRenderer.data.name together.
    I used it so when I roll over an item in the dataGrid it
    changes the text area I have in my application with the description
    of the current rolled over item. When I mouse over another entry
    then the description changes to that description and on and on.
    Here is the full code I used.
    itemRollOver="NAME_OF_TEXT_AREA.text =
    event.itemRenderer.data.description"
    you would change the description to whatever the field is you
    want, such as name, author, temp, books or whatever the data is.
    I am actually bringing in data on videos from a database. XML
    is created from the database using the XML plugin from Dreamweaver
    Developer ToolBox. A PHP file is used to output the desired table
    information then it is brought into Flex 2 application and the data
    is propigated into the Data Grid I have setup. The Text Area is
    updated with the description of the video both when one is selected
    but also, now, when any of the items in the list are moused over,
    or rolled over.
    It works great. You can easily change this to work for your
    app or at least give you a direction to go if it isn't exactly what
    you need.
    I have been trying to get this to work for a couple days now,
    just found my solution and wanted to come post to let others know
    about it.

  • Mouse-over pic A to make pop up pic B ...

    Hi there!
    Could need a quick solution for this, cause my (too) limited HTML knowledge doesn't help a bit ...
    I have a permanent picture A which, while mouse-over, should make picture B pop up.
    A mouse-over at picture B area (which is again invisible then) should make picture C pop up, which is on the same location as picture B.
    A mouse-down on that poped up picture C finally should perform a switch to another html page ...
    See this image for better understanding: www.manscha.de/TRANSFER/screen.JPG
    How can I manage this with Dreamweaver???
    Thanks a lot —

  • Why does moving the mouse over an IMAQ image display slow the GUI down so much?

    I have a large application with several vi's running simultaneously under labview 8.6.1.  When I mouse over an image display control in one of the vi's, everything slows down a shocking amount in all the other vi's.  The windows task manager does not show a large increase in CPU use.  My pc is has a quad cpu with 4GB of RAM, and the CPU and memory loads do not appear to be terribly taxing to the system.  However, many of my vi's apparently come almost to a standstill if I just move the mouse in a circle around my image control.
    This looks like it is largely a GUI display issue.  If I make a new vi and put a while loop in it that only displays the iteration loop number to an indicator, I can see the iterating occurring, then stopping totally when I mouse inside the image display control.  When I stop moving the mouse inside the control, or when I move it outside the control, the interation loop number jumps up, as if it had been incrementing behind the scenes the whole time.  So only display of the interating was halted.
    This problem occurs even if the vi with the image control is not executing.  If the vi with the image control is open but not running, and I mouse over the image on it, the other guis all come to a screeching halt.
    Does mousing in the image display control really utterly crush all other guis in all other labview windows?  Is this an issue inherent to the image display control?  If so, is there anything I can do about this? 
    Also, this issue is not entirely limited to display.  I started looking at it in greater detail because this issue also exposed what I think is a race condition in my code.  I have a vi that acquires an image from a ccd and puts it into an IMAQ image.ctl.  This image then gets passed up to a vi up the call chain, and is put on a queue and sent over to be de-queued by a vi that has the image display control.  Here's the kicker:  when I mouse over the image display control, the image successfully gets acquired inside the subvi, and if I probe the wire leading to the output IMAQ image display.ctl, I see the image.  If I simultaneously probe the wire coming out of the subvi one level up the call chain, the image gets lost about half the time.  This only happens if I am mousing in the image display control IN A TOTALLY DIFFERENT AND SEPARATE VI.  If I bump up the priority of the ccd image acquisition vi to 'highest priority', the problem only happens about 1% of the time, and I really have to mouse around to make it happen.  Still, it's disturbing that mousing in the GUI in one window results in a failure of a separate subvi to simply pass an image up the call chain.  I understand that IMAQ images are referenced rather than passed by value, but I don't see why there should be a failure to pass the image up the call chain.  I've looked for a race condition, but can't find one.
    Eric

    I have finally been able to replicate the behavior that you are seeing on another computer once the image was large enough.  Here are a few notes about this behavior:
    First. The UI only slows down when the images are large, 16 bit images.  The reason why this is unique to 16 bit images is that they can only be displayed on the front panel as 8 bit images.  The workaround that Weiyuan suggested to change the 16 bit display mapping hints towards the root of the problem...that any time a mouse runs over the indicator, Windows asks the entire image to re-draw (having a separate indicator overlapping the image will create the same behavior).  With a 16 bit image, not only does the image have to re-draw on the screen but the 16 bit pixels need to be mapped to 8 bits.  When setting the 16 bit display mapping to Full Dynamic, this requires mor computation/pixel than 90% dynamic or one of the other mapping schemes.
    This is expected behavior if your program is running and you're trying to display a large 16 bit image.  To fix this behavior there are a couple options:
    Change the 16 bit display mapping to something other than full dynamic.  You can choose which 8 bits to display or if you want to map the bits. 
    Resize the image just for viewing purposes on your front panel (since you aren't going to view every single pixel of you image on the screen). You can use the IMAQ Resample.vi to do this.  This will allow you to take your 1500x1500 pixel image and only display a 500x500 pixel version.
    If you are interested in viewing small details of the large image, consider just displaying a smaller region of interest at a time.
    Let me know if any of these solutions work for you.  Good luck on your application.
