Is it posible to create a button on page that calls a workflow

We are using Office 365/SharePoint 2013 and SharePoint designer.  I the workflow is set up in the library.  I was going to add a big button to the page so that when a user checks off a document and then hits the button it kicks off the workflow
to delete the item.  I know I can make a quick link button in the menu, the issue is that these people do not know how to use menus.  The user requirement is that they have a "big red button" to click on. 
Thanks in advance for your time. Steven

Hi,
Yes, you can add a view botton into your library and kick off the workflow with it as below:

  • I am trying to create a button in flash that will display 4 separate images at the same time when clicked.  I can't get the images to stay on when I take the mouse of the button.  I need the actions script code to make this happen.

    I am trying to create a button in flash that will allow the user to click on the button and 4 separate images show up at the same time.  I can get the images to appear when I click the button but they will not stay on the screen.  I need to know what code I use to make the images stay once the button is clicked, then I need to know exactly where I place that code.  It does not appear to be possible to add the action code to the buttons layer since each time I add a new layer I just get another "up" "over" "down" and "hit" line.
    Thank you in advance

    It is not clear how you are trying to realize this from your description.  If you are trying to create this within a button symbol it will not work.  Explain your approach and if there is code involved, show what you have so far.

  • HELP! Full size image is creating a new blank page that I cannot delete.

    Hello,
    I am creating a document where each page has a full size (8.5x11) image that is set to the background. I then have text over the background image. My problem is that when I make the background image and insert another page, I get a blank page that I cannot get rid of. I have made sure that the full size image is not going over the border but it is still creating an invisable character that is a blue line with an icon at the end.
    How can I get rid of this line??
    To insert the large inage, I am creating a square shape and extending it to the edge of the document. I am then filling that shape with an image.
    PLEASE HELP!!!
    Thank you in advance!

    Nevermind! I found the answer!! I had to un-check Object To Wrap in the Inspector.

  • Creating a PDF in pages that retains all line breaks and formatting as source

    Currently when we get pages documents, we convert them to PDF and send them off to be converted by a partner. We do this because said partner doesn't accept pages.
    However, lately we've found issues in PDFs created by pages that do not retain styling nor line breaks correctly.
    Example for line breaks:
    The quick brown fox
    jumped over the lazy dog.
    When converted to PDF it shows exactly the same on the PDF, as it did pages. The paragraph breaks are retain in the pages document, and the PDF looks correct.
    But when you copy/paste the text (which is generally how we test how valid the actual text is) you get something like:
    The quick brown
    fox
    jumped over the lazy dog.
    In some cases we even get line breaks on every word.
    We used the Export to PDF feature, the Print to PDF feature, and even generated a postscript and distilled with Acrobat Pro.
    Does anyone know how to solve this? It seems anything generated with QuartzPDFContext has issues.

    Interesting that preview works, but not Acrobat. Thanks!
    We are using export to word as a second option. The formatting (as in exact spacing and such) isn't always 100% retained. PDF afterall is a representation of what the customer wants. We don't always suggest it but in some type of books it helps.

  • Has anyone used Muse to create a static web page that gets translated into Joomla?

    Has anyone used Muse to create a static web page (html and xml) that gets translated into a Joomla template?

    Obviously I am out of my league. I am not a programer and I thought this would be something simple, but you guys are talking over my head.
    I thought I could create a simple link to the Happy.rdp and it would run...but as mentioned, you can't do that.
    What I have is a java script with a bunch of parameters (see below) that creates a pull-down menu. I was hoping I could list the names of the servers, click on the one I want to connect to, and I would get the log-in screen. That is my goal.
    I have a "Happy.rdp" icon on my desktop and I click on that and the remote connection starts. I have opened "Happy.rpd" in notepad and it has all the parameters (such as the IP address and stuff) that allow me to connect.
    * Menu selection script         *
    var NoOffFirstLineMenus=2;   // Number of first level items
    var LowBgColor='';   // Background color when mouse is not over
    var LowSubBgColor='b0b0b0';   // Background color when mouse is not over on subs
    var HighBgColor='';   // Background color when mouse is over
    ETC...
    // Menu tree
    // MenuX=new Array(Text to show, Link, background image (optional), number of sub elements, height, width);
    // For rollover images set "Text to show" to:  "rollover:Image1.jpg:Image2.jpg"
    Menu1=new Array("","http://home.com","",0,20,0);
    Menu2=new Array("Servers","","",1,20,115);
          Menu2_1=new Array("Servers","Happy.rdp","",0,20,170);

  • Adding a Button a Servlet that calls a JSP

    How would one put a Button in a Servlet that directs to a JSP.
    ... I have created a servlet that displays records from a database, but I would like to add a button that returns to a JSP page.
    I thought something like this would help...
    out.println("<input type='submit' value='Return to Main Page' name='response.sendRedirect ('MainPage.jsp');'/>");Help...

    You edited your message with a code snippet:
    Gusha wrote:
    out.println("<input type='submit' value='Return to Main Page' name='response.sendRedirect ('MainPage.jsp');'/>");
    Couple of things:
    1) Presentation logic belongs in JSP, not in Servlet. Using out.print in either JSP or Servlet is a bad practice.
    2) Java runs at server side, not at client side.

  • Creating a button in multisim

    I am trying to find/create a button in multisim or Ultiboard.  I do not want to use a mechanical button, I am looking for a way to create a "button trace" so that it's open when the button is not pressed, and once the button is pressed it complets the trace.  I have attached a picture of what i'm trying to accomplish. 
    Thanks!

    I am going to briefly respond just to give you an idea on how to proceed. You are going to have to use your picture and create this footprint in Ultiboard then add it to your Multisim User Database.  At that point  you can assign it to any one of the switches that are in the Multisim Database through the Spreadsheet (you can;t save it because interactive components can't be saved to the user database). Be advised that in Ultiobard you will not be able to see any type of animation of it opening and closing. You will just see what you have in your picture. You will probably need to refer to the manuals on footprint creation and consult the turtorials on the NI website. It would be difficult to go through a step by step procedure through the forum and if I tried to create a footprint I would have to review this information myself before I could do it.
    I have seen these type of switches in remote controls and basically this is a common switch type. I am surprised it is not included in Ultiboard already.
    I hope this is of some help to you.

  • Execute button on page from a seperate page

    I have a popup page with checkboxes and a submit button. When the user clicks submit, i need an execute button on the page that called the popup window to fire.. is this possible?

    OK: since you want to run a method that is in the backing bean of another page you could do the following: create a managed session scope bean which you can call from the backing bean of the dialog page, or...
    ...you could create a common method in a class which both of your backing beans extend from... I have one or more backing bean bases that I extend from so that I can call the same method.
    Here is a way you can get at another bean from a backing bean if you do not know how to do that:
    So if your ActionListener property on the command button in the dialog windown for the Save button or whatever you are calling it called the following method in the local backing bean:
    public void onSaveButtonPress(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
    CommonMB lCommonMB = (CommonMB)EL.get("#{CommonMB}");
    lCommonMB.theMethodYouWantedToCall();
    If you defined CommonMB as a session managed bean that had your target method "theMethodYouWantedToCall()" then you could call this method from both the button in the dialog and the button on the calling page. Right? Would this work for you?
    Where EL.get is defined as follows (this is more Steve Muench code BTW):
    public class EL {
    public static boolean test(String booleanExpr) {
    return Boolean.TRUE.equals(get(booleanExpr));
    public static String getAsString(String expr) {
    return (String)get(expr);
    public static Object get(String expr) {
    FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    ValueBinding vb = fc.getApplication().createValueBinding(expr);
    Object lReturn;
    lReturn = vb.getValue(fc);
    return lReturn;
    public static void set(String expr, Object value) {
    FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    ValueBinding vb = fc.getApplication().createValueBinding(expr);
    vb.setValue(fc,value);
    }

  • How can i create a simple netweaver portal page that shows text and images?

    Hi,
    i have a simple question or maybe it's not so simple.
    I am completly new to SAP Netweaver 2004s Portal. At the moment i'm trying to understand the struture of the whole thing. I already know how to create roles, worksets and pages and i know how to combine the different elements so a user can acces them.
    And now i want to create a simple portal page that shows text and images. Is it possible to create such a simple page with the portal content studio? What iView do i have to use?
    (I just want to create a start page with a welcome text on it.)

    Marc
    Considering that you would any ways go ahead with complex development from this simple start page I recommend create a Web dynpro Iview for your start page (include the Iview in your page).
    For putting the contents use Netweaver Developer studio to build a simple start page application and put your static text on that Iview.
    Please go through the following log after your NWDS development is over - This will make you comfortable for further challenging work.

  • List workflow with "Start workflow when an item is changed" will run twice when creating a new wiki page

    I have created the following workflow on the wiki page library to run when an item is changed:-
    And it will send emails as follow:-
    Currently when a user creates a new wiki page and he enters the wiki page name.
    Then he enters the content and click on save.
    Then two duplicate emails from the workflow will be sent ? So can anyone advice why creating a new wiki page will fire the workflow twice ?
    Thanks

    Hi john
    Have you see the library where the wiki pages are stored. You can see how many occurrences of the workflow has been run.
    Anyway, instead of using "wait for", can we put a condition that says, if Assign To:Approver is not empty. then email. 
    i use if instead of wait and it worked well, thanks

  • Creating adobe bookmarks in Pages

    Maybe I am missing something simple.
    Can I create a document in Pages that when I export it to a PDF document will have automatically created PDF bookmarks. I can do it in inDesign, MS Word, and Open Office.
    Can I do it in Pages? If so, how?
    SJ

    You need to make sure the link is a hyperlink before exporting to PDF.

  • Is it possible to create endnotes that restart with each section in Pages that will stay that way in epub?

    I can create section endnotes in Pages, no problem. When I export to epub, the notes are all there and the links work perfectly, but the numbers run continuously throughout the document. Is it possible to create section endnotes in Pages that will survive the epub export?

    I have a now-you-see-it now-you-don't and now-you-see-it-again suggestion from someone on this forum to try the new Pages upgrade which says it delivers improved epub export. Whoever you are--thanks for the suggestion--but I tried it and it doesn't make any difference to the notes, or anything else so far as I can tell.

  • Help!  Creating a website using Pages... is it possible?!

    Hi,
    I'm created a document in Pages that I exported as HTML anticipating using it as a Website. The formating did not transfer and I'm wondering if it's possible to use this beautiful application to easily make a website. This is the first time I've tried creating a website so any other suggestions would be helpful. The news of our website being available has been published so I'm under the wire to complete it!
    BTW, I looked at the website/homepage option with .Mac but it's not as flexible and I need to use the website at school, not at my home.
    Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
    Robin

    It's possible, but not recommended by those who have tried it. Results have been disappointing, to say the least, as you have found.
    I use Freeway Express by Soft Press, but it is an additional expense. I have seen others suggest the free Nvu or Netscape Composer. Try Google, MacUpdate or VersionTracker to find them.
