Mouse over for pop-up

Is it possible in Acrobat 8 to create a mouse over option that would reveal a pop-up? For instance, I have a map and I would like a persons name to pop-up when someone mouses over a state.
Thanks
Dave

Hi David,
i saw your question about creating a popup.
I would like to creat a popup in a PDF with Adobe Acrobat Profession Version 7 or 8.
Do you know how to create a popup which is normally invisible, only when the cursor is above a certain term then the popup is getting visible?
Do you know if it is possible to insert pictures or Power-Point-Screens in a popup on a PDF?
It would be great if you could help me!!
Please send me an EMail to: [email protected]
Thanks for your help!!
Greetings
Frank

Using mouse overs with pop-ups

I'd like to create a pdf using mouse overs to display otherwise hidden text (in describing various portions of a photo in the doc). Can anyone lead me in the right direction as specific guidance in 'Help' has so far been limited?

You can use the "Tooltip" for an easy method. You can also use teh "On Focus" and "On Blur" action of a field to show or hide a hidden field by either the drop down actions or JavaScript.

Pivot Table - Stack Graph - mouse over for legends

Hi,
I have a Pivot table with Levels as the x axis, like level1, level2, level3, level4. The Y axis is stacked with Project names, each stack with the cost of the project. There are 40 projects, and the Legend looks too crowded because of so many projects.
Is there a way to display the Projects and the cost, when the mouse rolls over the stacks, currently it displays only the cost?
Thank you for your time and help.

Hi Diney,
I Have to show all the projects per client requirement, I want to remove the legends(which I already did), and instead show the project name only when the mouse is rolled over in the graph. Is it possible?
Thanks for your time and help.

How do you create the 'cream pop-up info text boxes' that appear when you hover mouse over?

Hi people,
I really need to know how you create the 'cream pop-up info text boxes' that appear when you hover your mouse over an object on a webpage (and often in any program e.g. Photoshop) for more than a second. I need to know because the logo on my website is the navigation tool used to return to the homepage. It is always found in the top left so the user can always click it to return.
The only problem is im the only one who knows that when you click my logo, you return to the homepage. I need one of these 'cream info boxes' (forgive my lack of knowledge) to appear so the user will figure it out.
Thanks for taking the time to read my question...

Using your code it should look like this where title attribute is in red:
<div id="apDiv2"><a href="index.html"><img src="divs_dw/jtgd_logo_trans.png" alt="jtgd_logo" title="your description goes here" width="176" height="163" /></a></div>

Pop up of some comment on mouse over to a particular component

I have a column chart which display revenue for different products. I want to dispaly som comment on mouse over to a particular product. I have tried implementing it using a labels and dynamic visibility, but here in this solution I am facing problems due to default value. By default a label (comment) for a first product is displayed. I want a comment to be displayed only on mouse over.
How Should this be implemented. Is there any other way to show pop ups on mouse over.
Thanks

Creating an interactive CV: mouse over / roll over pop ups, embedded documents and videos

Hi everyone,
I am pretty new to Adobe Acrobat Pro and new to this forum (1st post here!). Greetings from Spain... and apologies for grammar mistakes and misleading explanations (in advance). I have been checking this forum and googling quite a bit, but I do not get to many conclusions (maybe I sleep few due to our baby!).
I want to create an interactive CV with the following characteristics:
1) CV in 1 page in a PDF document (no problem here!)
2) Hyperlinks in the text which open embedded files (pdf of others) hidden to the viewer but which are in the pdf document. Possible? (I want the recruiter to receive just one file). Even better if they could be open in another window (doubt it).
How could it be done? I try add documents and they are attached at the end, so the original pdf gets to have more pages, all viewable.
3) Furthermore, mouse over / roll over pop ups which show you a preview of the file you may open clicking the hyperlink, for a quick view of the content.
I think that this may be done, but using other programs, like InDesign. I just try to add a document, but it's sort of a link to a document in my computer. I may add pdf, pps files.
4) Even more, would it be possible to embed a video which would open in a new window? If not, I tried to add a link to youtube and there was a warning as "this program tries to open a window, if you trust the owner... " (similar safety message) and the very last thing I want the recruiter to have to decide whether to decide to watch it or not.
I know its a questions in its very first stages, but the big point is to know if/what it is possible to do, so that I search in the right direction.
If you have any idea or advice (even if not related to PDF pro, of course), just please let me know.
Thanks a lot in advance. I hope this thread may help others.
Cheers,
tebanseeker

Hi Dave,
Thanks a lot for the input.
(3) Right, I could not find either a way using just Acrobat Pro (I'm using XI). Sad thing that you confirm it... But it looks like you may do it using other programs on the PDF, but I don't know to use them. You may take a look at this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEyJuT8SSME (popup rollovers using Illustrator)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOVRMVdZbVE (popup rollovers using InDesign)
(4) I think that embedding would make the file to big, so I may opt for the hyperlink to youtube option, even if I deeply dislike that message, although youtube is a reliable source for the viewer.
Any other input is very welcome. I am pretty illiterate in the field!
Have a nice weekend,

Image question for mouse over.

I hope this is a simple question. Can I place a 150px wide image on my page and when you mouse over have the same photo pop up that is 300 px wide? I know I can swap the images if they are both 150 px. But I want to see the larger photo with the mouseover can someone explain or show me where to learn how to do this if I can even do it? Maybe it is not mouseover image swap and it is called something else? Thanks in advance.

tl1_mc.visible=tl2_mc.visible=tl3_mc.visible=false;

   this["tl"+i+"_mc"].addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT,offtl);
function overtl(e:MouseEvent=null):void{
   var n:int=int(e.currentTarget.name.substr(2,1));
   this["tl"+n+"_mc"].visible=true;
function offtl(e:MouseEvent=null):void{
   var n:int=int(e.currentTarget.name.substr(2,1));
   this["tl"+n+"_mc"].visible=false;

Filmstrip doesn't pop up on mouse over...

Only just started happening, when you hover the moue over the little up arrow icon on the filmstrip bar it just flashes brighter for a second and stays resolutely where it is! I can click the icon and the bar will expand as expected, clicking it again collapses the bar as expected. Only thing to note is the little icon on all the other bars shows as a mottled effect when collapsed but the filmstrip shows clean white!

Hey answered my own question :-) it's a double click that sets whether auto pop-up on mouse over works or not - I must have accidentally double clicked the filmstrip bar at some time!! Hope this helps if someone else has this problem... :-)

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 —
Klaus

With the newest auto update version of firefox there is now a white bar that pops up when you move your mouse over that area. i want that gone, how?

when you move your mouse underneath the address bar a white bar pops up, this makes it so you can't click buttons or links on websites, like login buttons for example. also when in full screen mode you can no longer mouse over tabs at the top of the screen, only that white bar shows up. that prtty much kills full screen usage for me. so that popup white bar and the full screen with the white bar without tabs has just about ruined firefox for me. anyway to fix this would be great.

Pop Up Text in an applet on mouse over event

Can anyone help me to design a pop up text message to be displayed in an applet on moving your mouse over a particular control. Plz. Its urgent

To show a pop-up use javax.swing.Popup. Add a mouse listener to button. When mouse enters the button pop-up shows and when mouse exited the button, pop-up disappears. This pop-up is capable of displaying simple message to any swing component. Sample code:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
* @author mrityunjoy_saha
* @version 1.0
public class AppletWithPopup extends JApplet {
    private Popup popup;
    private JButton button;
    private JLabel message;
    @Override
    public void init() {
        setLayout(new FlowLayout());
        button = new JButton("Hello");
        message = new JLabel("This is a JLabel. It can be any swing component.");
        button.addMouseListener(new MyMouseListener());
        add(button);
    private class MyMouseListener extends MouseAdapter {
        @Override
        public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e) {
            System.out.println("Mouse entered.");
            PopupFactory factory = PopupFactory.getSharedInstance();
            popup = factory.getPopup(AppletWithPopup.this, message, (int) button.getLocationOnScreen().
                    getX() - 20, (int) button.getLocationOnScreen().getY() + 40);
            //popup = factory.getPopup(AppletWithPopup.this, message, 50, 10);
            popup.show();
        @Override
        public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e) {
            System.out.println("Mouse exited.");
            if (popup != null) {
                popup.hide();
}If you are talking about alert box (where some message can be displayed), in above example instead of javax.swing.Popup use javax.swing.JOptionPane. In case you are using JOptionPane, make it visible in mouseEntered() method and hide it in mouseExited() method.
Thanks,

Mouse over solution for jdk1.0

hi all,
I am interested in making the equivalent of a mouse over solution for a java applet.
Basically I'll have approximately 100 Rectangle objects representing images on the applet.
When the person moves the mouse over these 100 rectangle objects, i'll use contains() method to determine if the mouse is over the object in question.
If true, the image will be changed to represent the mouse over event .
I thought for a msecond about looping through all the rectangle objects each time the mouse moves. but that seemed impractical since the mouse can move pretty quickly.
It seemed to me the best option was to extend the Rectangle object and put an event listener on it . so that the Rectangle object can be triggered at the same time or individually as needed in response to the mousemove event .
Does anyone have any thoughts about that ?
does anyone know how I would possible implement something like that for java 1.0
thanks
stev

it seems like I have to extend Component some how to get access to enableEvents method.
Here is my class
class ListeningRectangle extends Rectangle{
     public ListeningRectangle(int w, int x, int y, int z, Component c){
          super(w,x,y,z);
          c.enableEvents(AWTEvent.MOUSE_MOTION_EVENT_MASK);
     public void mouseMoved (MouseEvent me) {
     System.out.println("event has been received by rectangle");
I am using this class in conjunction with a java applet (targetted to 1.0-1.1 ).
I'm passing a reference of the applet in to create this ListeningRectangle like this
new ListeningRectangle(a,b,c,d,this);
my objective is to have about 100 different rectangle areas defined on the java applet.
and when the person moves the moves the mouse of the applet rapidly, only the appropriate ListeningRectangle object would respond.
any ideas on how to get this done ? ?

Mouse over pop up - not sticky note-can it be done?

I am curious if there is a feature in Acrobat where by mousing over an area you can get a pop-up that provides information about the area you have moused over - much as you get when you hold the mouse over an item in the toolbar. I have looked and tried but, other than sticky notes-which are not really what I want - I have found nothing.
Is that possible in Acrobat?
Would appreciate any info or ideas.
Joe

You can use the button tool to create a button and in the properties add a tooltip. That will show on mouseover.
Be sure and set the properties with no fill or border so it won't be visible.

If I have a box with a title strip at the bottom, how do I make the strip pop up on mouse over

So I am building a website for my company and Ive hit a brick wall on something that I know I could make work correct but I dont have the time and dont want to contiue to waste time experimenting. I have been using adobe flash and I know how to use it but not on this level I guess, I have got it to work in some cases but seems like it would be the worst to edit if needed.
Im trying to make a box (button) that has a visible title strip at the bottom of it. When you mouse over the title slides up and it shows information, which you can click to go to a link or mouse out and it will go back down. Ive been trying everything and something always seems to not go just right. I need it to be fluid, for I will be doing it to 6 boxes in a row on the landing page of the site. Please let me know if anyone knows what Im talking about or can help in any way possible! There is an example on the sony site near the bottom with 4 boxes. http://www.sony.com/index.php
Also, If anyone were to know the answer to the Q above, What would be the best template to start in for this?
Thanks, T

Consider something like a JavaScript library for your tabs. You can do it yourself with standard jQuery effects easily (http://learn.jquery.com/effects/intro-to-effects/) or even use something premade as a wrapper if you really choose like jQuery UI (http://jqueryui.com/toggle/). Simple things like revealing content via a tab should be done in a modern way.
The content of the tabs can be SWFs if you really have some serious animations/etc they can exist inside there.

The list of extensions for InDesign now have a yellow triangle warning symbol in front of a good many of the extensions and when moused over i get one of two messages:
"Extensions may not function properly because it does not meet the dependency condition."
OR
Extension Status is not consistent with extension set configuration."
The reason I opened the Extension Manager in the first place was to check to see if I had installed a third party extension. And I was presented with these warning symbols. I haven't added anything, I haven't done anything that would cause this.
Does anyone know how to fix this???
I am running OSX 10.9.5; Indesign CS6 version 8.0.2 And Adobe Extension Manager version 6.0.8.28.
Thanks in advance!
Nina

Many InDesign pre-installed extensions (Those extensions you have immediately after InDesign installation) define dependency rules in their mxi files. Dependency means that one extension works well only if one or more other extensions are installed and enabled. If this condition is not met, the yellow triangle warning will be shown.
You can select an extension with warning, click "Advanced" tag page in the lower right panel. You will see "This extension has dependency on: <extension name> ...". Check whether every extensions listed here are available and enabled. If not, enable them. Repeat these steps for all the extensions which have warning.

Mouse over for pop-up
