Mouse zoom function

I use a cordless Logitech TrackMan Wheel mouse. When I'm browsing the internet I sometimes accidentally "select" a picture or object. The next time I use my scroll wheel the image or object's size changes. How do I turn this feature off? I looked in the mouse preference and didnt' find anything there. My Zoom preference in Universal Access is turned off. What can I do? This drives me crazy!! Thanks fo r your help.

1. You did not state what Web browser you are using as I asked above. Still not sure if this is an anomaly with the trackball, OS, LCC, or browser.
2. I can't reproduce the behavior in either OmniWeb (my browser of choice) or Safari. If I right click anywhere on or in the Apple logo you cite, I see the usual contextual menu, not "a dotted line around the box" — whatever "box" you mean, unless you mean the "tab" as in a file-folder tab on which the logo is placed. I'm surprised you're not seeing a contextual menu when you right-click on the logo.
3. Have you:3.1. Checked the right-click settings for your mouse in the LCC preference pane?
3.2. Trashed all of the com.logitech.* preferences in your Home > Library > Preferences folder, then reconfigured your trackball?
3.3. Tried a different mouse?4. Some general troubleshooting ideas you can apply:4.1. Check your account's preferences with Preferential Treatment.
4.2. Do you have a second user account defined on your system? If so, log in to it and see if the problem happens there. If it does, it is probably a system-wide problem. If not, it is something with your user account. If you don't have a second account on your system, you can create a new one using System Preferences > Accounts. See "Mac OS X 10.4 Help: Adding a new user account to your computer."
4.3. Try a different browser.
4.4. Trash your browser's preferences.
4.5. An errant Startup or Login Item maybe the cause. My "Troubleshooting Startup and Login Items" FAQ can help you pin that down if such an item is causing the problem.
4.6. Immediately after the problem occurs, check the ends of these Console logs for clues.
Good luck!

Scroll-zoom function does not work.

Hey,
I am using Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Pro on Windows XP and somehow I am not able to use Ctrl+scroll for zooming in and out.
It only works using Ctrl++ and Ctrl+-.
Do you know how I can turn the scroll-zooming function on again?
Thank you,
Finn

In later versions the setting is controlled by:
Edit > Preferences > General > Basic Tools > Make Hand tool use mouse-wheel scrolling
I don't have a copy of A6 to verify if the entry is in the same place or not.

Adding a button with zoom function

Hello,
I am working on a product catalog and for this purpose we have used a professional photographer to shoot product photos. The photos are really nice and they can be zoomed in to see every detail clearly. The photos have been inserted into the pdf catalog but because of the limited space they are not very detailed.
Is it possible to add a button or link with zoom function? For example, an icon such as a magnifier or just the word zoom so when a user clicks it, it will zoom in the pre set area to a pre set level and center it.
Sounds quite fancy right? Maybe i'm thinking the impossible... but it's worth a try here :)
Regards,
Rudi

ok. i got it! :))
i have made some changes myself. When the mouse enters button1, button2 becomes visible and button1 becomes hidden (otherwise it is overlapping button2). I have set this in the actions of button1. I would also add the following function: when visible button2 is clicked it hides button2 (this you have already shown and works) and makes button1 visible again. I guess making button1 visible again has to be done with a Javascript in the actions of button2 under mouse up.
I have no knowledge of programming. Can you tell me how to do this?
After i openen the pdf file and used this function and close the pdf file it asks to save the pdf file. How can i prevent this to show up? I dont want this to happen to my customers.
Is it possible to see the exact dimensions of the button? Then i could create both buttons so that they fit in my catalog exactly as i want them, and then check the dimensions and scale my photos to it. Although it seems that Acrobat does something with the photo size already as the photo in button2 is 34mb while the pdf file is only 200kb.
thanks.

BTW this is really a well thought out solution and i think not many people are aware of this because i have never seen it before

Zoom functionality

Hello,
There's an issue that I am having regarding the "Insert -> Standard Objects -> Zoom Area...". Or perhaps, rather a function that I'd like but probably overlooked. I'll elaborate:
I have a project, in that project I have a "Rollover Area", as soon as you hover your mouse over it, it displays a small image (Actually a large image cropped)
I'd like the "Zoom Area..." to actually show the part of the large image, instead of just stretching open the small image (Resulting in large pixels). I hope the image below will help clarifying what I am getting and what I want to achieve.
http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/1644/zoomdhj.jpg
As you can see, the original large image looks much sharper than the zoomed in version of the image that was cropped. How can I best achieve retaining the quality and yet keep the nifty zoom function?
I'm using Captivate 4 by the way
Thanks for the help!

Hi there

Double-clicking the zoom destination area and picking a picture, just seems the same as "Insert -> Image" to me. Am I missing something here?
While you are correct in that the project size will likely increase as a result of using a Zoom Area, using an image is definitely not the same. It may appear to you that it is, but trust me, it isn't.
When you insert an image, the image appears where you inserted it. But it remains in one position on the screen or stage. When you insert an image into a Zoom Destination, it will move from wherever the beginning of the Zoom area is to the location of the Zoom Destination area.
Cheers... Rick

Mighty MB112ll/B apple mouse Zoom problem.

I have mighty MB112ll/B apple mouse model (A1152), using it on mac pro. I want to do Zoom in & out by this mouse, but I could not! how do I activate zoom function.

Sorry for delay in getting back, I have since installed a fresh copy of Leopard and tested how the mouse copes and still exactly the same. I am pretty certain it is permanently down as the ball is a lot lower down than it used to be. Will have to call Apple by looks of it. Hopefully the phones won't be quite as busy as they were at the end of last week.

Zoom function run away in Indd CC 2014

with ALT and trackpad/magic mouse - my zoom function run away in Indd CC 2014....

Sounds like the same issue that's discussed in this thread: Fast playback (multicam) won't stop until end of timeline reached
Exactly which release of CC7.x are you on? One bug in this vein was fixed in 7.1, but another case remains that we haven't been able to reproduce in-house.

How do I add a zoom function to a digital magazine (.swf file) in InDesign CS6?

Hi,
Im creating an interactive digital magazine for our company which will go on the iPad, but also online for computers.
The iPad (.folio) has zoom functions, but on screen (.swf) the magazine is very static and peaple can't zoom and scroll (the zooming buttons function in InDesign doesn't work here).
So, how do I add a zoom function to a digital magazine (.swf file) in InDesign CS6?
(I read older posts regarding this problem in CS5... It's not possible for me to purchase an additional product for that. I have Flash, if there is a tutorial on how to do it, that'd be helpful too)
Thanks for your help!
Best regards!

Although the help implies this should work, and I've seen it written in a book to do things this way, it's not how I do things:
var content_req1:URLRequest = new URLRequest("text/hales.txt");
var content_ldr:URLLoader = new URLLoader(content_req1);
content_ldr.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete1);
Instead, try:
var content_req1:URLRequest = new URLRequest("text/hales.txt");
var content_ldr:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
content_ldr.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onComplete1);
content_ldr1.load(content_req1);

How to switch off scroll and zoom functions of touchpad on Satellite L

Hi.
Can anyone tell me how to switch off the scroll and zoom functions for the Synaptics Touchpad v7.2 .
Can't seem to do it via the Control Panel.
Any suggestions.

Hi buddy,
> Can't seem to do it via the Control Panel.
You can only disable the virtual scrolling function if the touchpad driver is installed properly. The driver provides extended functions and allows you to disable/enable special features. If you dont have installed the touchpad driver download it on official Toshiba page:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
Then navigate to control panel as the previous user wrote for disabling the scroll function.
Can you find it now?

Zoom function not working correctly in the playback options window.

When selecting the start and stop timepoints for creating a text file in signal express I can't zoom in on selected areas. When I use the zoom function the trace just dissapears.
Could anyone help me with this?

Is this a LabVIEW or a signal express question?

DPS: pinch and zoom function not working on all pages within folio (v30 tools using the pdf setting). What would cause some pages to pinch and zoom fluidly, while other pages appear a bit sticky? Could it be a button on the wrong layer?

What would cause some pages in the same folio to pinch and zoom fluidly, while other pages appear a bit sticky? Could it be a button on the wrong layer that's not allowing the pinch and zoom to work?
I do have a "go to state" button that enlarges graphic to full page on the page. Could this be cancelling the pinch and zoom functionality? Would a box with text wrap ON affect the ability to pich and zoom? What else may be causing this?

Keyboard/mouse variably function

My keyboard & mouse stop functioning unpredictably. Problem persists after repairing disk,permissions;also tried taping KB cable under battery, no luck. Can use USB KB & Mouse. All other functions seem OK. Machine is > 3 yrs old. Should I chuck it? Is it likely an OS problem? I also must attach USB KB to launch Windows from Bootcamp (ie. the KB won't work before Mac OS launches). Thanks for any clues, suggestions. I've had the problem intermittently for 6 months or more, but it is now more persistent.

It's possible if the battery was leaking.

Does the camera have a focus or zoom function

does the camera have a focus function or zoom function?

The camera on iPad was really designed for Facetime conversations. Keep in mind the rear facing camera is 2.3 Megapixel and the front facing camera is .7 magapixel. Neither are even close to real camera standards.

How do I permanently set the zoom-function, so I will not have to zoom every time I open a new tab/page?

I have recently installed Firefox on my one month old laptop which has a 17" screen. Every time I open Firefox I have to use the zoom-function (ctr +) four times to be able to read comfortably. Every time when I next open a website, or tab, or window I have to use the zoom-function again. This is kind of getting old, fast.
Is there any way I can set the zoom to a higher/closer setting permanently, so I do not have to use the zoom-function about 50 times everytime I use the internet?
If you could help me that would be lovely!
Thanks,
Kikki

You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.
