Is it possible to control/save where a dialogue box appears on screen?

I'm using a Mac, OS 10.9, Acrobat 10.1.8, dual monitors (laptop screen and an external monitor)
I have to do a lot of scanning to PDF and then separating and creating carefully named files. So I open the doc, select the pages, export them out and do a Save As - is there a way to position and lock this Save As dialogue box?
It always appears in the center of the screen - which happens to be where the document has the info that I need to name this new file. So I have to move the Save As box and then type the file name. I want to skip needing to use the mouse and moving this.
Seemed like on the PC when I was doing this same thing, I could "train" the dialogue box to appear on the opposite screen. Or it would appear in the same place that I'd closed it before (off to the side somewhere). 
Opposite screen, stuck to the top of the same screen - some place other than where it's appearing right now. Anyone know if this is an option? Either within Acrobat or within the OS itself?
Thanks much! 

Ben,
Yes, it is easily possible. I have personally used Matrix Orbital serial LCD displays and QSI serial LCD displays. QSI also offers touch screen modules (I experimented with one very briefly). For information on a QSI Display with touchpad, see the following link:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/explprog.nsf/6c163603265406328625682a006ed37d/afec7c774f0edb3d86256c1a006728de?OpenDocument
QSI (www.qsicorp.com) also offers other types of displays that have been successfully used with FP-RT controllers. There should be other LabVIEW drivers available from their web site for some of their other displays.
Regards,
Aaron

  • Create a dynamic form where selected text boxes appears, based on options chosen in a drop-down box

    HELP!!! Can anyone please provide some guidance on how to create a dynamic form where selected text boxes appears, based on options chosen in a drop-down box.
    I have a form which – based on the department that's selected from a drop-down box – will have different form fields/text boxes, etc, made available.
    Is this possible in LiveCycle, if so, can you please provide the script/info - as needed.
    Thanks,

    In the preOpen event of the second dropdown list you put something like (in formCalc):
    if (dropdown1 == 1) then
    $.clearItems()
    $.setItems("Year, 2 Year,  3 Year")
    elseif (dropdown1 == 2) then
    $.clearItems()
    $.setItems("3 Year,  4 Year")
    endif

  • Is it possible to control the order that text flows appear when using them as text insets?

    I want to create multiple flows in a FrameMaker file which I can then insert as text insets. I would like to choose the inset using the Body Page Flow: dropdown list. However, there seems to be no order, alphabetical or otherwise, in which these flow appear in the drop down list. Is it possible to control this order, or is there a particular reason it appears the way it does?
    Cheers,

    IIRC, the flows are displayed in the order that they were created.

  • My "Save for Web" dialogue box is so huge the save button is off screen

    I'm running Windows XP with Photoshop CS6.
    Since the "Save" button runs off the edge of my monitor, I can't click Save. I also can't move the dialogue box up far enough to get to it before running out of screen space. I tried just hitting the enter key, but nothing happened. I end up having to do a control-alt-delete to get out of Photoshop altogether.
    I've never had this problem before when I had CS2 or with the CS6 I have at work.
    Is there a way around this?

    I was able to drag the window down, but it would not resize. The cursor did change to what is normally a resize cursor, but it had no effect. Again, I could drag the window up by the title bar, but not far enough to get to the save button. I right-clicked the start button, but I didn't see any options for moving windows.
    I recently had virus problems and they wiped my computer and reinstalled everything. Since then, I've noticed every web page in all my browsers are too wide to fit in the browser without scrolling (but I never had that problem before the wipe). Now I'm wondering if that problem is somehow related to this Photoshop problem. Maybe my screen resolution was set wrong? But I hesitate to mess with it; the last time I tried messing with that to make my parents' computer easier for them to see, it just threw everything out of whack and it was difficult getting it back to normal.

  • Save Password Dialogue Box Not Displaying

    I am seeing behavior that suggests that the dialogue box for saving passwords is invisible:
    * I can frequently see the outline of a box where the dialogue box would be
    * On a couple of occassions, the dialogue box would appear for a few seconds before disappearing - I was once even able to save it
    * On sites where I enter a password, hyperlinks are not recognized in the area where the save password dialogue would normally appear - it's as if the window is there but not visible.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled.
    Private Browsing is Off. Save passwords is checked.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    *Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • How to realize the "save as" dialogue box?

    I want to realize this function in my jsp page:
    when I click a button, the system can prompt a new dialogue box which is the same as
    the "save as" dialogue box in windows 2000.
    How to realize it? Can I use JavaScript?

    You are asking about something that happens at the browser, so the question is identical to the one that asks how you can do it in HTML. But what do you expect to save with this dialogue box?

    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

    I read your entire message, and my mom's iPhone 5 does this exact same thing. When the idiot at the AT&T store transferred her data (well, most of it) to her new phone, he DID NOT use her latest iCloud backup like he should have, but used some features in "Bump" to move things across. So, in my opinion, it's not worth the hassle of restoring it as a new device as Tim suggests. That's just the easy answer. Here's something odd about hers. It seems to do this, when she's using her bluetooth earpiece (a Jawbone Icon), but not when she's got bluetooth disabled on the iPhone 5 and holding down the "Home" button to activate Siri. If she uses her Jawbone bluetooth earpiece to activate Siri, the answer that Siri presents on the phone's screen will only stay on for about five seconds, then dim, then go blank -- and she has to "swipe to unlock" and, of course, the Siri information is gone. Not so if she uses the Home key to activate Siri.

    unless i'm missing something, i think you got mixed up, this is easy google for walk throughs
    i'm assuming this is the new 3tb tc AC or 'tower' shape, if so, its wifi will run circles around your at&t device
    unplug the at&t box for a minute and plug it back in
    factory reset your tc - unplug it, hold down reset and keep holding while you plug it back in - only release reset when amber light flashes in 10-20s
    connect the tc to your at&t box via eth in the wan port, wait 1 minute, open airport utility look in 'other wifi devices' to setup the tc
    create a new wifi network (give it a different name than your at&t one) and put the tc in bridge mode (it may do this automatically for you, but you should double check) under the 'network' tab
    login to your at&t router and disable wifi on it
    add new clients to the new wifi network, and point your Macs to the time machine for backups

  • Is it possible to control itunes dj from other computers on the same network?

    is it possible to control itunes dj from other computers on the same network?  we have a computer running itunes connected to our speakers here at work, and we'd like to be able to control it through the other comptuers on the network.  is this possible, or do you have to use iphones/ipads/etc?

    AC is corret you can do that.  It might work a bit better for you if you use a wired connection vs a wireless one for the ATV's.

  • How to control save as option in a jsp whose content type is PDF

    Hi
    I have one jsp in which i am showing PDF, it means it content type is PDF. I want to control save as option in it,
    i.e when a user tries to save it the default name which is coming it is name of the jsp, but i want default name is dynamic which depends upon user.
    I used response.setHeader(content-deposition,inline;filename=abcd.pdf) , but it doesnt work. if i use
    response.setHeader(content-deposition,attachment;filename=abcd.pdf) then it is working but it straight away giving option as "U want to open or want to save it". I dont want this i want first PDF to be shown in jsp then if some one wants to save he will click on save button in PDF and there and want this option.
    Kindly help me

    Don't use JSP to serve a binary file. It almost implies the use of awful scriptlets and the invocation of both the response writer and the response outputstream which would only lead to IllegalStateException headaches in the server logs.
    Use a Servlet instead. Specify the file name as request parameter and let the servlet read the file and write it to the outputstream of the response.

  • Is it possible to control the duration of a video clip in IMovie? Speed

    Is it possible to control the duration of a video clip in IMovie? Speed
    it up/slow it down?

    I actually think the content gets smoother in faster mode. But maybe that's just my opinion.
    By the way, the fast/slow/reverse effect is pretty sensitive, i use it for my fight scenes in movies and I can only raise the bar one notch faster before it starts to look cheesy.
