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.

Hi,
You can open your PDF file in Adobe Reader XI then select "Comment" from right top corner.
You will see all your sticky notes under "Comment List"

Rolling the mouse over the menu bar does not activate menu bar drop downs

Anyone one familiar with menu bars and drop downs not activating when the mouse is rolled over them? This happens consistently afterrunning Photoshop it seems. The menus only work if they are clicked. Webpage links do not display the hand and also have to be clicked. Additionally, Photoshop selections (marching ants) do not activate.

The standard behavior of Macintosh Menus is to do nothing when the mouse is rolled over them. They drop down once you click somewhere, then roll over a similar item, such as click and release on the apple menu, then rollover the File Menu or the Edit menu.

Open to a blank screen (NOT blank document) - Can it be done?

Is there a way to open to a blank screen (like when you click close on the document template screen)? I'd like to be able to be able to choose to open recent items without having to close the dialog. This is what I do most.

Hi Timothy,
It might not be possible to open to blank screen, but here's a workaround:
1. Go to Finder > File > New Smart Folder.
2. In the first row, select Kind as the first search criteria and then "Others..."; type "pages" into the box (or select "Pages Publication")
3. On the second row, choose Last Opened, Created or Last Modified, and then the time frame you want (last 2 weeks, for example).
4. Click on Save (top right corner of the window).
This will create your own document launcher for Pages. Rather than using the "Open Recent" submenu from Pages use this smart folder to launch the docs you want. The folder can also be saved to your sidebar for easy access.
Not exactly what you wanted, but hopefully a helpful workaround.

I have just purchased the new iPad with the camera connection kit. I just want to be able insert my SD card into the Pad and view my photos, not import them.Can this be done and how? Please advise. Thank you.

See this article: iPad: Using the iPad Camera Connection Kit
No, this canot be done, afaik. When your camera or card is connected, you will see the thumbnails in the camera pane, but not full size preview. So to browse your photos on the iPad you will need to import them to your camera roll. But you need not delete them from the camera or card after importing, so you might simply import selected photos to your camera roll from the camera grid and then delete them again from the camera roll after importing and browsing, without removing them from the card/camera.

Hovering mouse over messages

Just got switched from BT Yahoo mail to BT mail. Found that hovering the mouse over in-box messages does not reveal email addresses, so I can't identify potentially unwanted/dangerous messages like I used to do. Any suggestions please?

What info, apart from the one I provided, should I post? I don't even receive any message at all when X crashes and nothing responds and I have to manually shutdown.

Special cursor in mouse over area

I am currently creating an application training for a rather
advanced piece of software. This software uses several different
cursors to indicate different actions in certain areas: for
instance a hand, a triangle and two arrows.
My question: is it possible in Captivate 1 to simulate this?
So can I specify a specific cursor for a certain (mouse over) area?
And if not, what would be the best way to work around this?
Thanks!

Hi Dutk,
FYI (for your information) "HTH" isn't my name - Larry
Walther is my name, and "CatBandit" is my screen name. "HTH" is
simply shorthand for "hope this helps". No big deal, but didn't
want you addressing me as HTH for the next five years.
Sorry, but the mouse cursor cannot be changed mid-slide. That
is, there cannot be two mouse cursors (the same image or different)
on the same slide time-line. If you want to display changing
cursors, you will have to either go to full-motion recording, or
split the action into multiple slides, then change the cursor at
the change of slide.
Sorry I can't help more with that.

Why can I not see the URL display when I mouse over a link?

When I mouse over a link the URL does not display at the bottom anymore and I cannot figure out how to make it display so that I know where I'm going before clicking. I only just recently noticed this happening and am not sure what changed.

Spotlight does not show the path or location of a file anymore when hovering with the mouse over the file

in Leopard Spotlight used to show you the path /location of a file when you stayed with the mouse over the result. As sometimes I just look for the location of a file not to open it like a mp3 file. It would be nice to have a opiton in spotlight to contorl or right click a file and then give the option to say show in finder. that only works when you have your results show up in finder first and takes a bit longer. or maybe in the new prieview window to show the loaation or give you opitons what to do with the file
Just an idea to spotlight even better

When you hover over a file in spotlight list (or select with up/down arrow) you can also hit command-R to open the folder where the file is located. Kind of like 'Show Original' for aliases.
But yeah, Apple really needs to just show the directory path on the hover pop-up by default. Obviously, when you do a search you'll most likely get several files with the same name - we need to see the locations to tell them apart. One of the main reasons to do a file search is to simply find out 'where the file is located' - not necessarily open the file. Seems pretty shortsighted to not show the file location in the search result.

How to make yellow dialog box not come up when I mouse over tabs?

I hate the little small yellow background colored dialog box that pops up when you mouse over tabs on Firefox on Mac.
The reason why this is an in convenience on the Firefox in Mac is when a dialog box comes up and you minimize Firefox the dialog box stays there on the screen, so you have to bring Firefox to the front and then mouse over it til the box go's away, and then finally you can minimize Firefox without having the dialog box stay on your screen.
To negate this problem I want to know if their is a way for me to disable that dialog box from coming up at all. It also comes up when I mouse over my all in one sidebar add on and I have noticed it when you mouseover links on certain sites, like in Pandora when I am mousing over the different artists in my list the little box comes up, again it's not needed and very annoying.

you must modify '''browser.chrome.toolbar_tips'''
type in the address bar '''about:config'''
then press the button''' i'll be careful i promise'''
then type in the bar '''browser.chrome.toolbar_tips'''
then '''Double-click''' on it, to make it''' false'''
exit firefox and restart-it.

thank you

Mouse-over not working

My mouse-over isn't working well at all with anything. I can't activate expose by the corners of my desktop, app titles don't appear on my dock when i hover the cursor, no highlights in context menus and if the option i click has another context menu, i have to click that option twice, i had my dock on auto-hide and had to undo that because my cursor isn't recognized there either. And mouse-over within apps isn't working either (like Safari, iCal, etc)
I cant make any specific distinctions, but this all started right after downloading OS 3.1 for my iPod Touch. Just before that, I had installed iTunes 9. Don't know if there's any correlation to these updates, but after all was said and done that night, my mouse-over was pretty much disabled =\
ANY help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

So, I'm not sure how, but switching out my mouse seemed to cure the problem. I am now in the market for a new mouse (cuz the substitute I'm using is too tiny lol)

Is there a good "Sticky note app that ACTUALLY put a Sticky Note on my iPad ( over my existing wallpaper images) on either the Home or Lock screens like how the Stickies app works on a Mac?

I have an iPad 3.
I tried two, One was a worthless piece of junk I wasted $2.99 on and the other is pretty good ($1.99) except is does not do a function I would like to use as advertised ( which is to create a sticking note that works like an app by creating an icon sized version of the original created sticky note, then clicking on an app icon size version of the originally created sticky note that you can tap on like an app and a large sticky note is supposed to appear. This does NOT work with an iPad.
Does anyone use a Stickies app for IOS that works exactly like how the Stickies app works on a Mac?
What good is a Stickies note app on iOS when it cannot put actual virtual stickies notes over the main IOS screens and wallpapers and remain there until they are no longer needed?
Does any one use a good stickies app on iPad? NOT iPhone or iPod Touch.

It really cannot be done in iOS due to the sandboxed security model of the operating system. No app can modify the "desktop" like that - they can only display their own "virtual" desktop when actually actively in use. so any stickie note app is the same as any simple note app - it must be open and active to display content. It cannot modify any screen but it's own when active.

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 conditio

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.

Link not showing hand icon when mouse over

I am creating an image gallery and have thumbnails that open
in a separate window to a larger version of the image.
The links are working, but when you put the mouse over the
image the little hand does not appear to show it is a link, if you
click it works and the image opens, but the hand does not show,
what have I done wrong.

This implies that you have applied the behavior directly to
the <img> tag,
when you should have applied it to an anchor tag surrounding
the <img> tag,
e.g.,
this - <a href="javascript:;"
onclick="whatever"><img src="whatever"...></a>
rather than this - <img onclick="whatever"
src="whatever"...>
You can get this by manually creating it, or by selecting the
image,
removing the behavior, then entering "javascript:;" (without
the quotes) in
the Link field of the Property inspector. This will wrap the
<img> tag with
the anchor. Now select the <a> on the Tag selector, and
apply your
behavior.
As you can see, familiarity with HTML (and CSS) will come in
quite handy

TS3092 my wireless apple mouse works to move the arrow but will not scroll. how can I fix this?

my wireless mouse moves the pointer but does not scroll, how can I fix this?

Check the setting in System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse & Trackpad tab > mouse options.. button > check scrolling.
If you have an older mouse with the trackball, it might just need cleaning. Turn the mouse over and rub the trackball vigorously on paper or microfiber cloth.
