No Cursor Rollover Feedback

Hi there,
I'm having a pretty trivial problem but it's driving me CRAZY. So, normally when you rollover the dock/drop-down menus/etc. with the cursor, there's some sort of feedback. Whether it be highlighting or the name of the application showing up above the dock icon or whatever, there is always SOME sort of rollover feedback. Well, for some reason there is no feedback for me anymore. I rollover the dock and nothing shows up over the icons, I can still click on them just fine, but there's absolutely no indication besides my cursor being on the icon that I am rolling over. On drop-down menus there is no highlighting of the options when I roll-over, it just stays the same color. The cursor never changes either, it is always the black arrow whether I'm on a link or a button or not.
Any ideas on how I can fix this? I've tried restarting, by the way. It's probably one of the most unexplainably annoying things I've ever encountered with my Mac. It's just very offsetting, I want to fix it to save my sanity!
Thanks.

ok i got the solution! Its a mouse driver problem! Simply unplug an replug your mouse and you are fine.. i assume you use a logitech mouse with the logitech control center? I guess we have to wait for an updated Software.

Play/Pause animation on cursor rollover!

Hi,
I have a sequence of images that make up an animation.
I want it so...
     - when the file initially opens, the first frame is showed
     - when the cursor rolls over the frame, the animation plays
     - the animation keeps playing until the cursor is taken off the frame, at which point it is paused.
My animation has sound.
No buttons, just plain and simple cursor roll over.
Thank you for any help you guys can give me!
Sam

Thank you so much for your help Ned!
But I'm still having problems....It's made no difference what so ever and I've done exactly what you've said.
I've got some pictures here to help.
Below is shot of my timeline as I see it...
This is also the code I have inserted on the first frame of the "Actions layer"....
These are some errors with the code (not sure if this is relevant)....
Any more ideas Ned?

Sharing specific page-content on Facebook/Twitter/etc...

Hi all,
I'm trying to create a blog-kind of website where I can add audio, video, pics and text on a regular basis. For the moment it looks like this: http://www.senneguns.be/sg/Leeg.html (don't try to understand, it's in Dutch . But as you can see, there's a date (Tuesday, July 27th) and underneath some text and a vimeo-link.
Now underneath the entry you can see a "share-on-facebook" button (doesn't have to be this one, I just picked one). Problem is, when you hit the button, you get a facebook-reference to the whole page AND it doesn't look very nice on Facebook. (The link is something like: http://www.senneguns.be/sg//Leegfiles/widget1markup.html --> doesn't say anything about the page content and I don't like the "widget1_markup.html" stuff in it)
So is there a way to link/connect the share button directly to the content on a page and even more specific: to SOME content on the page (like, in this instance, the vimeo-movie?). Here: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/FacebookShare/Specifying_MetaTags I read it can be done with meta-tags, but I don't know how to implement those into iWeb (seem to come across various info concerning meta-tagging in iWeb)...
Any help would be very nice, looked and googled around for a while and couldn't find the answer... Thanks!

The one I used from http://www.addthis.com/web-button-select *worked for me*. I did forgot to provide one little adjustment that I had to make in order to make it work. I had to enlarge the snippet area to about 450 x 400 pixels to allow the drop down window to appear. The area can overlap other items. But don't hit the apply button after setting the new size or it will go back to the original size.
The close window x in the larger window doesn't work however but clicking on the button will open and close the larger selection window. The cursor rollover opens a smaller selection window.
See Page 2 of my Test Site for the example.

It doesn't appear that you save the check selection state anywhere, so therefore your renderer (not the cell editor's renderer) doesn't know when a cell should be rendered as checked.
The following is an example of check list, but note that it doesn't use the cell editor routine. Instead it is dependent on:
[http://code.google.com/p/aephyr/source/browse/trunk/src/aephyr/swing/RolloverSupport.java]
In fact, the following code's sole existence was to test that class in some type of scenario that would actually be useful. Note that the check selection model is differentiated from the normal selection model - that is necessary unless you do some rewiring of the InputMap/ActionMap so that it doesn't behave funky. Also note that for JTree, TreeSelectionModel will have to be used... and if you happen to decide to use the RolloverSupport way, RolloverSupprt.Tree in replace of RolloverSupport.List... The only real benefit of using RolloverSupport for this is that it seamlessly gives the component cell rollover feedback as long as the UI of JCheckBox paints differently upon rollover.

Extend VTextField to dynamically underline font

Rather than use the Hyperlink bean (because it's pretty slow to load), I have taken the concepts in the ModCursor demo and built a simple class that extends VTextField, providing for the traditional webpage look of a hyperlink: the hand cursor, rollover bolding, etc...
I have left the font coloring and underlining to the text item properties; set when the developer builds the form.
Problem with leaving the underlining in the text item properties is that if the item is part of a multi-record block and the records don't fill the space allocated for them (the block can show up to 10, but perhaps only 5 records are loaded), then the "empty" records have little tiny dots where the underline of the empty text fields are.
I thought it would be simple to just add the underline in the implementation class, but it's not proving to be so simple. I've tried adding a TextAttribute whenever the font is set, but that doesn't "take".
Here's my code, anyone have any ideas on how to add the underline in the PJC?
I ripped out all the comments to reduce the size; I can comment about any part of it as necessary.
import java.awt.Font;
import java.awt.font.*;
import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
import oracle.forms.ui.VTextField;
import oracle.forms.properties.ID;
import java.awt.event.MouseAdapter;
import java.awt.event.MouseEvent;
import java.awt.Cursor;
public class Hotlink
extends VTextField
private Cursor stdCursor;
private int stdStyle;
public Hotlink()
super();
try
jbInit();
catch (Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
private void jbInit() throws Exception
stdCursor = this.getCursor();
this.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter()
public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent me)
if(getTextLength() > 0)
stdStyle = getFont().getStyle();
setFont(getFont().deriveFont(Font.BOLD));
setCursor(new Cursor(Cursor.HAND_CURSOR));
public void mouseExited(MouseEvent me)
if(getTextLength() > 0)
setFont(getFont().deriveFont(stdStyle));
setCursor(stdCursor);
public void setFont(Font font)
if(this.getTextLength() > 0)
Map attrs = font.getAttributes();
attrs.put(TextAttribute.UNDERLINE, TextAttribute.UNDERLINE_ON);
font = new Font(attrs);
super.setFont(font);
}

Alright, no replies, but I figured out one way to do it.
It's kinda cheesy, but it works alright.
I saw that the Hyperlink bean actually drew a line to underline the text, so that's what I did.
I overloaded the paint method, and only draw a line if there is text in the item.
Actually, I only apply the moseover effects if there's text, too.
Anyway, for those seeking the same answers as I was, here's my code, stripped of comments because of size considerations:

Sharing pages on facebook, twitter, digg it etc

I'm wondering if there is a way to incorporate a sharing menu/button on my iWeb pages like the ones on popular blog sites.
I'm sure you all know what I mean, it's the buttons that allow you to share the current page on facebook, twitter, digg it, or email it to other people.
I run a gaming website and have my blog section done via blogger, entered in via the snippet. But I also have a review section done manually and want to be able to have this menu bar to easily make my twitter followers aware that a new review has been uploaded and for readers to easily share the review.
Can this be done?
(My website is http://www.genuinegamers.com)
Thanks.

The one I used from http://www.addthis.com/web-button-select *worked for me*. I did forgot to provide one little adjustment that I had to make in order to make it work. I had to enlarge the snippet area to about 450 x 400 pixels to allow the drop down window to appear. The area can overlap other items. But don't hit the apply button after setting the new size or it will go back to the original size.
The close window x in the larger window doesn't work however but clicking on the button will open and close the larger selection window. The cursor rollover opens a smaller selection window.
See Page 2 of my Test Site for the example.

CTI centers on monitor bezels

Maybe I'm just being picky, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a solution to this. I'm using a dual monitor setup with the timeline spanned across the monitors. Whenever I zoom into or out of the timeline, the CTI centers, which places it right on the 2 inside bezels of the monitors. I then have to slide the timeline left or right to get some screen real estate in which to work.
It would be nice to have a setting that would allow the CTI to center to one of the monitors. Perhaps there already is and I just can't locate it?

What happens Jim in your set up when you use the tilde key from cursor rollover (of any panel) or use the Playback setting to Monitor 2. (ie the full screenplayback in monitor 2) I dont think there is an option to playout this to monitor 1.
I am right handed so tend to sit slightly left of a 2 screen setup in front of the left monitor (Primary). Wonder if ergos come into the reason we all set up differently. My clients are always on my right shoulder so they get a clear view of secondary monitor(s).

RollOver/MouseOver cursor change bug in external loaded swf

I have a master movie with navigation that loads a external swfs. The external swfs serve different purposes and typically have a series of buttons that navigate the timeline. The external movies with their buttons work fine running individually. When the movies are loaded through the master movie, the buttons in the external movies looses the cursor change on rollOver. These are basic invisible hotspot - button symbols. The buttons typically navigated to different frames. I am curious why the cursor change fails when loaded through the main movie, but works when run on its own.
I have done some searching in Google, but didn't find a similar issue. Any ideas? Throughout all the movies, I probably have over 200 buttons, I don't want to create rollOver and rollOut cursor changes for each. Again, these are basic button symbols.
Any clues?
Dave

Actually, the some of the external movies were created with InDesign - which is the worst application for developing Flash content with.

Detecting movie rollover without cursor changing

Hi there,
I want my flash movie to initiate a sequence of events when
the mouse strays inside a certain area. One way I've found to do
this is create a movie with a completely transparent rectangle
enclosing the 'sensitive' area (which I've given an instance name
of ActiveArea), and attaching a rollover behaviour like this:
ActiveArea.onRollOver = function () {
play();
This is fine, except that when the mouse moves over
ActiveArea the cursor changes to a hyperlink style cursor, which I
do NOT want!
Is there either a way I can stop the cursor changing, or
alternatively a completely different approach which solves this
problem?
Any help is gratefully received!
Luke

I just found another way of doing it(before seeing the
incredibly simple solution above) which seems to work... Is there
any advantage to either approach?
Here's my way:

Rollover cursor in IE7?

Hi - have created a nav bar using MM drop downs - they work
fine - other than some of them only show a rollover icon at the
very edge of the box - it shows the I beam text insertion cursor
instead. This only happens in IE7 - they're fine in Firefox...
Can anyone tell me why this happens and how to stop it?

> Can anyone tell me why this happens and how to stop it?
It happens because the MM drop downs are working fine. The
way to stop it
is to not use the MM drop downs. Please read this, written by
the person
who adapted that code for Macromedia -

There are just much better ways of doing these menus -

FAQ: How do I make a hand cursor display on rollover or mouse over?

You can make a component in your application, for example a button or custom component, display a pointing finger cursor when a user's mouse rolls over it. Select the component, and in the Appearance section of the Properties panel, check Hand cursor.
Read the quick tip on FlashCats.

Hi there
Another approach is to use a Rollover Caption. Just remove any text and configure the caption as transparent. Then layer the Rollover area over the part where you want the hand to change to a cursor. The net effect will be that the cursor change will occur. Clicking will then result in triggering the underlying Submit button, which appers to be invisible and layered over an image.
Cheers... Rick

Disjointed rollover

I‘m trying to apply a “disjointed rollover” to my iweb site. My understanding of disjointed rollovers is that the visual-feedback does not correspond with the location of the cursor. I want symbols located at the side of my site to trigger text to appear in the center of my site (not over the rollover button). I have figured out how to create regular rollover but that doesn’t really help me. Is their any way to do this with iweb-08?

Have you Googled for "disjointed rollovers" and looked at some of the javascript solution? You could use image files of the text for the rollover. This search result has some possibilities: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=safari&rls=en&q=javascriptdisjointed+rollover+for+text&aq=0&aqi=m1&aql=&oq=javascriptdisjointed+rollover+f ortext&gs_rfai=
The example on this page, http://www.daxassist.com/js/disjointedrollovers.cfm, with images could be converted to text if you made image files of the text you wanted to use. Sort of like item #4 on this demo page: Mouse Rollover

Two "cursors" when in tablet mode

X61 tablet, Windows 7, RC1, 64 bit. , pdfannotator, onenote, office
When using the the tablet in tablet mode (screen folded down), I often will get two cursors on the screen when the pen is near or on it. This happens in various application software, but usually begins after using the eraser, or the flyout keyboard and tablet input menu.
The extra cursor appears above, and to the right of the actual cursor. Actual cursor being a pen tip "dot" while the extra cursor is a random symbol, ranging from another offset dot, to a very dark right click ring, to a very dark hourglass, to an i-beam shaped bar. It happens immediately when using grahl's pdf annotator, but has showed up in other programs as well including onenote, after using the flyout input panel in word, and a number of other programs.
I'm certain it has something to do with the tablet multitouch drivers, escpecially since the drivers for 7 seem to be a wacom dual-touch driver not designed specifically for the X61. Anyone else run into this trouble and come across a solution?

This is what Microsoft Support told me to do, and it worked, but I am stuck with a boring standard mouse cursor in Windows (no special Tablet PC cursors - for right click, etc.)
Step 1:
1. Open Local Group Policy Editor:Run... gpedit.msc
2. Navigate to User Configuration - Administrative Templates - Windows Components - Tablet PC - Cursors
3. Enable the Turn off pen feedback setting.
Step 2:
Go to Control Panel. Double click on Mouse. Find "Mouse Properties"
Go to "Pointer Options". Put a check mark in the "Display Pointer trails"
Slide the bar over to "short". Apply the changes and then restart PDF Annotator.
I'm awaiting Microsoft's reply as to whether there is some way to keep my original cursors without having the PDF Annotator problem.
