Making links that show/hide layers?

Hi all,
I created an InDesign cs4 file which is pretty much a guide for users of my liveCicle form. I have a bunch of layers in the file.
I'm trying to make links associated with images that are in its own layers. So when i export the file to pdf and hit certain link, layer associated with that link shows up. I tryed to do this in acrobat 9 pro. I created links, but the problem is that links in non visible layers work behind the scene when i hover over.
Is there a way to set layer visability in inDesign CS4?
Thanks in advance

No you can´t toggle layer visibility with buttons made in indesign. You have to finish it in Acrobat....
Only way to make something appear or disappear in ID is to use show/hide buttons action...
You can convert those images you want to show&hide to buttons. Then you can create another buttons to show or hide them.
If you export as PDF, default state of a button can be hidden...

Can we hide or delete the standard BO link that shows up in SAP Inbox & UWL

Hi,
Is there a way to hide or delete the standard BO link that shows up in SAP Inbox & UWL ?
I have already gone through the following threads.
Objects and attachments in workitems..
No standard object's link in the workitem
But, i have this requirement to hide atleast on UWL side the link for the std. BO.
I am working with ECC 6.0 & E.P 7.0 , SP 10.
Jocelyn,
You were mentioning about some UWL XML configuration to hide this in the first thread. Can you elaborate on this please.
Anybody,
Any idea on how to achieve this ?
I really appreciate your immediate reply.
Regards,
venu

Guys,
Luckily, for this, i was using a user-decision step which uses DECISION --> PROCESS method. So, I could remove the BO:TRIP that i included earlier. But, for other tasks, where if we use a method from our BO, we cannot remove this std. BO link that shows up in "Objects & Attachments"...to my understanding.
Thanks for all your info on this question.

Can someone please help? Show/Hide layers

Hi there,
I am making a site for a friend and am having some weirdness
that I can't figure out. I have a series of layers that show/hide
based on various selections. Nothing complicated by any means. I am
using the Dreamweaver Show-hide layers functionality. I am sure I
have used it before in exactly the same way and not had this
problem.
So here is what it is. The page loads and most of the layers
are set to hidden and then they get toggled on/off based on various
selections. For some reason when the page loads in IE, all of the
layers are visible. In Firefox they are hidden as intended.
If someone has come across this before, or could take a
moment to look at the site, I would be very grateful. I have stared
at this and tweaked it so much that I am at a loss and I know that
my friend is really needing her site to just be up and running.
Also, now that I think of it, (and this is more of a nuisance
than a problem) I am using the snap layers extension to position my
layers. When you look at my site you will see that the layers look
crazy when the page loads and then eventually move into place. Is
there a way to make it so the layers are just already in place? Or
even if they could not become visible until after they have
snapped?
Thanks in advance. I really do appreciate any help you could
provide.

I agree with the honest answer. This is a very poor way to
make a page.
Nevertheless, in DW's design view, use the A/P Element panel,
and make sure
that the eyeball icon is CLOSED for each layer that you want
to be hidden
when the page loads. Then save and upload the page.

DW: Show-Hide Layers

Hey, I’m having two issues with the Show-Hide Layers
behaviour in Dreamweaver and was wondering if someone else has had
the same problems and has a solution.
My test page is
http://www.petermcphee.com/dreamweaver/popup-layer.html
1) What I would like is to show the layer when the link is
hovered over, which works fine. However, I also want the layer to
remain visible while the mouse is over the layer and disappear when
the mouse leaves the layer.
I Googled for a while and found some tutorials that deal with
showing/hiding layers but they hide the layers once the mouse
leaves the original link, not the layer.
2) Also, the site that I want to apply this behaviour to has
an auto centering wrapper box, so I would like the layer to popup
right underneath the link every time without converting the entire
site to absolute positioning. As it is now, the popup appears at
different locations depending how wide my browser is.
Is this even possible with the current DW functionality?
Thanks a lot!
Peter.

When you show the layer, also show an underlying layer that
contains a
transparent GIF image that is about 10px wider/taller than
the layer you
show. Apply a hide layer behavior to the GIF image that hides
both the
layer you just showed, and the underlying layer. Remove the
mouseout hide
event from the original trigger. Does that make sense?

Change this -
</head>
to this -
<style type="text/css">

</style>
</head>
change this -
<body ...>
to this -
<body ...>
<div id="wrapper">
and this -
</body>
to this -

</div>
</body>
and see if that helps.

Disjointed Rollovers with show / hide layers

Creating a series of thumnails on a page which, when clicked
on, will bring up full size image in one spot and relevant text in
another. I'm using Show / Hide Layers to do this. I've got it all
working fine except stumbling on one thing. Probably obvious.
The question I have is how to make the currently showing
layers go away when the user clicks on another thumbnail. If I was
using onMouseover and onMouseout then that would be simple. But I
can't figure out how to automatically make the layers currently
showing go back to being hidden when another thumbnail is clicked.
What I get instead is the new layers appearing on top of the old
ones and making a mess.
Probably an obvious solution, but my brain is not getting it
at the moment. Suggestions?
Thanks...
-Jesse

Don't use the show/hide at all. Use SetText of Layer to write
the required
content into a single layer.
Or - if you don't quite get that, just use PVII's AutoLayer
extension which
will show one and hide all the rest automatically.

Show/Hide layers?

I am creating a multimedia book. I want to have a button on the page that when clicked will bring up a flash movie in the center of the page and then a button to click that will make it go away.
I have done this quite easily in dreamweaver for websites by a show/hide layers button but do not see how to do it in indesign.
Thanks for any help...

You can't build that functionality in with InDesign — but you can with Acrobat Pro. You've got to use the form builder functions to create a button that will show or hide another element.

Show/hide layers no mouseover option

I have MX (2004) and am trying to create a simple show/hide
layer behavior on some thumbnails/main images and it is just not
working for me. The behavior has the show/hide option, but it does
not show the arrows active to choose the mouseover and other
events. I have the 'show 4.0 browsers and later' box
checked...anyone know what else it could be? Is there a simple code
I can drop in (I'm an artist, not a programmer, so be gentle)? Any
immediate help at [email protected] would be very much
appreciated!

Do you actually have any layers on the page. You need to put
a layer on
the page first and then apply the show-hide layer behaviour.

Opera Show/Hide Layers (k)

We have a fairly complex navigation using layers to show
dropdowns. It
works in almost all browsers except for Opera on the
Mac(haven't tried PC).
I imagine it doesn't like the Show/Hide Layers code.
Any thoughts about a work around?

Show Hide Layers - Can't do "onmouseout"

I'm trying to do a show/hide layers on an image map hot spot.
I select the <area> tag from the hotspot, and can set the
show layer "onmouseover" but it won't let me set the hide layer for
"onmouseout". In fact when I try to set the "onmouseout", dw justs
makes another "onmouseover" behavior just like the one I already
have. ??? Thanks for any help.

Can you go to the behaviors panel and edit the second
"onmouseover" to
change it to an "onmouseout" ?

Dreamweaver CS3 & Show/Hide Layers Problem

I'm trying to use Dreamweaver CS3 and the Show/Hide Layers
behaviour to show or hide another layer on a click. However, when I
go to the behaviours window and click on the plus to get the drop
down list of behaviours to choose from, 'Show/Hide Layers' isn't
there - can anybody help me?! I need this to get an assignment done
due in really soon.
Thanks

It goes well beyond DW's Show/hide, however....

More/Less link to show & hide more text in a report

Hi Everyone,
Lot of my reports having description field running around close to 100 to 200 characters.
So instead of showing all the description to the users why not show only partial data like first 100 characters and then followed with a "More..." link to show the rest and change the link to "...Les".
On clicking Less it should display only 100 characters.
Can some one please throw some light on how to embed this in a report column.
Thanks,
Teku.

Tweak your report query
SELECT ...
'<div id="less_#ROWNUM#">'||substr(Long_column,1,100)||'<a ref="javascript:$x_Show(''more_#ROWNUM#'' );
    $x_Hide(''less_#ROWNUM#'');">more...</a></div><div id="more_#ROWNUM#" style="display:none;">'||
    Long_column||'<a ref="javascript:$x_Show(''less_#ROWNUM#'' );$x_Hide(''more_#ROWNUM#'' );">
    ...less</a></div>' LongColumn
...FROM...Replace ref with href, I had to remove the leading h to post the code snippet.
Next create a function that accepts varchar2 as input and returns the HTML fragment as shown above, say do_more_less . In all your report queries call the function , e.g.
SELECT ... , do_more_less(Long_column) LongColumn, ...Cheers,

Just downloaded Firefox 23 update and now links that show up in my browser searches redirect to other pages

I downloaded the new update to Firefox 23 (I wasn't sure about it because it looked very weird and behaved differently) and immediately when I clicked on some (not all) of my bookmarks I was redirected to other pages I have never seen before. Also, when I used either Bing or Google search engines, when I click on one of the links given by the search I got redirected to those same odd pages every time. I closed Firefox and ran a virus scan, and even though it caught the usual number of tracking cookies and malware, they were all the same ones it usually catches. I could not find any strange extensions or plugins in the Firefox list, other than the plugins page now has a tab by every item that shows "always activate". Are you hearing from other people about similar problems?

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.

What determines the links that show up on my .mac page?

Just learning iWeb 1.1.2. I created a site that included a welcome page, about me, three pages of photos, and a movie page. All this was using the templates Apple provided. I renamed the photo and movie pages. I expected the Welcome page for the site to be the only one to show up on my .mac homepage. Instead, under My Pages, the Welcome page is the only one that does not appear. (Isn't it supposed to be the equivalent of index.html?) If I go to one of the listed pages, I can then navigate to the Welcome page. But I think that is backward from how it is supposed to work. Also, another site I created showed up at first, then went off the list when I tried renaming the photo pages (removing colons from the names and adding underscores in place of spaces).

OOOOOK.
Duh, now I understand.
If it's any comfort my .mac page does not show all the pages either. Never really paid much attention to it. Really not sure what that's all about. Sounds like a .mac issue , but don't think I'd worry about it as long as the site works.
By the way, the site looks good.
You might think about a page that shows references your albums with links to the pages. You can elect to not have the album pages in the menu bar. Keeps the menu bar from getting too cluttered. Looks like you had that sort of idea on you "about me" page, but no links.
08 incorporates this concept.
anyway, good luck. Looks like your having fun with it.

Show/Hide Layers or Divs "onclick"

I'm trying to create a page of thumbnail images in a chess
board affect. I want to be able to click on a thumbnail and have a
larger version appear on the top left of the thumbnails covering
about 4 of them. The larger version needs to have some text and a
"close" button to hide the large image again. Similar to the image
gallery example on:
http://pmob.co.uk/pob/disjointed1.htm#null
Can anyone advise me?
Thanks

Use DW's Show/Hide behavior.
