Locking Navigation Panels

We are having issues where users inadvertently move the docked navigation pane.  Is there a way to programmatically lock the navigation pane to the left side of the screen and prevent end users from moving/undocking (floating) the pane?
We are using Acrobat 9 professional to create the PDF and the end users are using Reader 9 to open and view.
Thanks,

Not the answer I wanted to hear, but thank you for the response Bernd.
Maybe we can get Adobe to add that functionality to the next version.  This request is actually in response to an error, where in Reader 9, once the user pulls the navigation pane (specifically the bookmarks) from the side (floating) and then closes reader.  When they re-open Reader, they recieve an error.  This error will not go away until the system is reimaged or the program re-installed.

  • Locking/Hiding  Navigation Panel Buttons When pdf Is Viewed

    Setting Document>Properties>Initial View to "Full Screen" (and password protecting) triggers a warning (& a choice) for person viewing my pdf containing layers and attachments.
    Is there a way with JavaScript to keep the Navigation Panel (& associated buttons) from being exposed when my pdf is viewed (when opened as an attachment or from a web browser)?.
    The "hideMenuItem" method only takes effect at the app open (not doc open) level, so I'd prefer not to employ in script.
    I have Pro 9 (but need pdf to run in Reader 7 +).
    Many thanks for any suggestions!

    > Is there a way with JavaScript to keep the Navigation Panel
    Nope. Even if you could hide it programatically, the user would simply have to hit F4 to show the nav panel again, and there is no way to disable that functionality.

  • How to move Navigator Panel in PSE 9

    I just got PSE 9 because I hate PSE 10 and 11.
    I'm used to being able to move the Navigator Panel wherever I want, but in PSE 9 it seems to be locked in the panel area and I don't see how to move it elsewhere.
    How do I move the Navigatore Panel?
    Also, just wondering, since I didn't sign in how will I be notified if anyone responds to my question?
    I guess I'll find out.

    Please try to drag from depicted area in the snapshot.

  • Locking navigation pane - headings view in word/pdf

    I'm converting word doc into a pdf and would like to have the navigation pane - headings view automatically displayed when opening the pdf. Right now I have to do it manually, i.e. open the pdf, go to view, select navigation pane, etc. Is there a way I can lock navigation pane view?
    Thanks,
    karolina

    If by "headings" you mean bookmarks, you can set up the document to display them when it opens: File > Properties > Initial View > Navigation tab > Bookmarks Panel and Page

  • How can you display only one artboard in the Navigation Panel?

    I would like to be able take advantage of the Navigation Panel as a thumbnail view of the artwork I am illustrating. The Adobe Illustrator file has 5 art boards. Is there an option in the Navigation Panel to view the art board I am working with, alone? 

    > That could work if all of the group items were the same size.
    Why would that matter? Each GroupItem has its own controlBounds, height, width, position properties. Each Document has its own height, width, pageOrigin properties. The script would reference those properties to position the Group in the center of the document.

  • Acrobat 9 Pro: Can't view last odd page in navigation panel

    When viewing pages of a pdf through the pages navigation panel in Acrobat 9 Pro in 2-up view, if the document finishes on an odd page, you cant scroll down and view the last page in the navigation panel. This wasn't a problem in Acrobat 8 Professional. Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix this?
    I have attached a screen capture that shows the problem.

    Thank you, but that's not going to be very efficient for his purposes, he says. He's actually moving back to Acrobat 7 to build new documents. I spoke with Adobe tech support this morning and showed them the issue via desktop viewing; they stated that the engineers are still working on the problem and it "would fixed in the next major release." Very disappointing.
    Do you any insight into when the next major release of Acrobat may be?

  • Moving Navigation Panels in Adobe Acrobat X Pro

    Is there a way to move a navigation panel from vertical (left side) to horizontal (bottom)?  I used to be able to do this in Adobe Standard, but can't seem to figure out how to do it in X Pro.

    Not the answer I wanted, but at least I can stop wasting my time trying to figure out how to do it.  (It's so frustrating to lose functionality when you "upgrade".)

  • Acrobat XI Standard Doesn't Have a Compare Button on Navigation Panel

    We have a few machines running Acrobat XI Standard. Neither of those users can do the side-by-side view of a previously compared document (accessed via the compare button on the navigation panel) like other users who are using Acrobat 9 Standard, X Standard and XI Pro. Is this just not an option anymore on XI standard? If that is the case we will be hesitant to upgrade all the users who are still on 9 and X.

    The Acrobat XI help doc (http://helpx.adobe.com/en/pdf/acrobat_reference.pdf) indicates it is a Pro-only feature.

  • RoboHelp HTML Version 10 - Navigation panel not displaying in published project

    We are generating a WebHelp project in RoboHelp HTML Version 10 and the navigation panel (TOC, Search, etc.) is no longer visible in the index file (viewed locally) and it's only visible by clicking "Show" when viewed in a web server. This issue is occurring with Internet Explorer 11 and Google Chrome Version 39.0.2171.99 m. I also tried to view the index files of previously generated projects and am experiencing the same issue (this did not occur before). Is this a known issue? It appears that there a few other discussions posted recently experiencing similar issues. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Nikki

    Hi there
    Sorry, but I'm a bit confused. What you are describing sounds like perfectly normal behavior.
    Can you share a link where this is happening? Not so we can click it, but so we can see what the link looks like.
    If you want a topic to open with the surrounding navigation (TOC, Index, Search, Glossary) you need to click the Show link, then look at what's in the Address bar. Copy that link and you should have what you need.
    Cheers... Rick

  • How to make Navigation Panel invisible on portal screen????

    Hi,
    I need to create two roles ( X and Y ).
    when the user is assgned role X: he should see standard portal screen
    When user is assigned role Y: he should see customized portal screen.
    Features of customized portal screen:
    All features of portal should not be seen. The user should see only the iview and nothing else.
    What I have done:
    Created Role ( X and Y ) and respective iviews
    With Framework page:
    I copied standard framework page. made all iviews invisible except Desktop Innerpage.
    I opend the Innerpage. I made all all iviews invisible except the Content Area.
    With Desktop:
    I create new desktop and assigned the new framework page to deaktop and made it default.
    With Rule Collection: I created new rule collection where:
    if Role = Y
    display: new desktop
    if role = X
    display: default desktop
    Result:
    when I login with role X it shows default Desktop
    Problem Area: When i login with ROLE Y, No portal feature is visible But We can still Expand and collapse Navigation panel.
    Requirement: I do not want the user should see the navigation panel. It should not be visible on screen even though it is empty.
    I tried lots almost all properties. Please help.
    Any help would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Aditya Deshpande

    hi;
    Then you have to create Role Y without workset or Page only with iViews, so no Navigation will be generated. :h1
    But if you habe Workset and Page in your role , just go to all Page and workset and set this properties>navigation>Invisible in Navigation Areas  to false.
    I Hoppe it will help
    Take care

  • Link to folder in a room - missing header area and navigation panel

    Hello Community,
    I have a problem, again. While creating favorites to specific folders I got a problem while using and "publishing" them.
    While using the "send to..." feature the recipient gets an eMail with the link to this folder. When clicking this link he gets as the result the opened folder, displayed in a browser. Until now nothing really unexpected.
    What we want is that he gets not only the opened folder. We want that he gets the whole navigation around it (navigation panel, header area) for the specific room the folder is in.
    Now my question. Is it possible to create a link with this behavior?
    Thanks for every hint in advance!
    Regards,
    Frank

    Hi Frank,
    if you have navigated to the room / within the room to the room part you want, check the page toolbar, choose "Add to Portal Favorites", add it under some name; then in IE choose Favorites, right-click on the favorite just added, right click, properties (or just call it). The upcoming URL of the form http://portal:50000/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=navurl://1f9eaddf81792cb6f2b9f05381cce360&&NavTargetAsRoot=true should do the trick (this at least holds from SP14 on).
    Hope it helps

  • Create a pdf where the Bookmark Navigation Panel is always shown on start up

    Hi all,
    I have Acrobat 8.0 & InDesign 5.0.1.
    I have created a .pdf with Bookmarks to aid navigation.
    I would like the Bookmarks Navigation Panel to always show when pdf is opened in Adobe reader, not just on my machine but on everyone who recives the file - is this possible?
    The reason for this is some users may not know to open the bookmark panel to aid navigation.
    Thanks in advance all.

    Thanks Brend,
    Worked perfectly. Some very useful settings in there as well.
