Overlay an item over an activex control and/ or disabling the mouse scroll wheel

There seems to be several references in the discussion forum to placing a picture control over an activex item to prevent the activex item being selected etc.
The thing is, I can't seem to do it: the activex control is always on top, no matter what I do and no matter what control, or decoration I use.
What am I doing wrong?
Failing that, is there another way of stopping the user getting access to the activx control?
Essentially what I want to do is stop them accidentally scrolling through the control's pages with the mouse scroll wheel. I've stopped them accessing the scroll bars, BUT it is still possible to use the scroll wheel unfortunately.
Something else I tried was a tab control: placing the activex control on a page and then trying to make the page on top transparent. Needless to say that didn't work....

Important questions:
What ActiveX control are you using?
I'm using the PDF activex control to display a PDF on the front panel of my VI.
What version of LabVIEW are you using?
I'm using LabVIEW 7.1
What "control pages" are you talking about?
The pages of the PDF: it has several pages. If a mouse is held over it the user can scroll using the scroll wheel, or if they right click they can access the Adobe menu.
It's these that I'd like to inhibit them doing.
Thanks
Andy

I updated to the latest version and now I do not have the page controls at the right hand side and bottom and can only move the page up and down using the mouse scroll wheel. I also cannot see the whole page I am trying to view.

When I open the web browser I cannot see the whole page and I cannot move the image sideways and must use the mouse scroll to move up and down.

Try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete the contents the following folder:
User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

Viewing a video (YouTube, etc.) disables the mouse scroll wheel - switch to Opera and scroll on a page, return to FF and wheel is reenabled.

After viewing a video (usually YouTube, but not exclusively; either directly, or embedded in a web page), the mouse scroll wheel will become disabled. If I then switch over to Opera and use the scroll wheel on any open page, the scroll wheel will be re-enabled upon return to FireFox.

How do I get the scroll bar back to the right side of the screen and how do I get the mouse scroll wheel to work again?

Yesterday the scroll bar on Firefox was moved from the right to the left of the screen and the webpages do not scroll when using the mouse scroll wheel.

Reset the pref <b>layout.scrollbar.side</b> to '0' or set to '2' to place the scroll bar at the default right side.
See:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/layout.scrollbar.side
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/about%3Aconfig
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Use mouse scroll wheel to change numeric control

Does anyone know if and how I can use the mouse scroll wheel to change numeric control values?

Another option would be to change the timeout. This would avoid the timeout event every ms when the mouse has not "entered" the contol.

Keyboard and mouse scroll wheel freeze

A friend and I both using INDD CS4 occasionally find that, while working in an InDesign file, the keyboard input stops working (can't use keyboard shortcuts or enter text) as does the mouse scroll wheel. They work fine in other applications, just not InDesign. We can still click things okay and use menus with the regular mouse buttons, however. The issue stops about a minute after mousing around within the application.
It's a strange phenomenon. Any ideas out there?
Using InDesign 6.0.2 on Windows XP SP3.

This sounds like it might be a driver problem of some sort.
You can eliminate the video driver as the cause (a prime suspect) by right-clciking a blank spot on the desktop and choosing properties. Go to the Settings tab and click the Advanced button. Click the Troubleshooting tab and set harware acceleration to none.
If the problem goes away, find an updated driver for your video card. If not, try installing an updated mouse driver. If neither of those works, come back and tell us.
You should also update to 6.0.3

RE: ActiveX control and Active Server Pages?

Martin, if it works in standalone VB program but not in an .asp page
through VBScript, I guess the reason may be the type mismatch on the
parameters of the ActiveX automation methods. VBScript is a subset of VB
and only supports the OLE data type VARIANT for calling the OLE
interface. The Conductor ActiveX control probably requires the actual
data types, such as long, BSTR, and so on, to be used on the parameters.
As a result, VBScript cannot call the methods on the control. One
workaround you can try is to create your own ActiveX control which is
simply a wrapper for calling the Conductor control. Its parameter types
use VARIANT and you do the data conversion in your wrapper code. Hope
this helps.

Subject: ActiveX control and Active Server Pages?
Hello Forte users,
Did anyone try to use the ActiveX control that ships with Conductor
1.0G in an Active Server Page?
I tried to use the ActiveX control without luck, so a sample would be
appreciated. The code
works fine in Visual Basic.
Below the code:
<HTML>
<BODY>
<%
Set thisDirectory =
Server.CreateObject("CONDUCTORCLIENT.WFDirectoryServiceCtl.1")
Set thisEngine = thisDirectory.WFFindEngine("ceengine", "centrale")
Set thisUser =
Server.CreateObject("CONDUCTORCLIENT.WFUserProfileDescCtrl.1")
thisUser.New
thisUser.ProfileName = "MiniUP"
thisUser.userName = "martin"
' The following call fails: Invalid procedure call or argument:
'thisEngine.OpenSession'
Set thisSession = thisEngine.OpenSession("CREATE", thisUser, "martin",
0)
Set thisProcess = thisSession.CreateProcess("MiniPD", Empty)
thisSession.CloseSession (WFSESSION_TERMINATED)
%>
</BODY>
</HTML>

I don't have 6.1 in front of me now. I came up with a workaround for my application when I encounted this problem. I created an attribute node for the container and the tab control. Whenever the tab control was not on the page with the control, I made the container invisible. This then hid the activeX control.

Flash player 10.1 Help ( ActiveX control and Download manager)

I've been trying for several hours to download the new flash player 10.1. I tried everything in the FAQ and still nothing. I tried un-installing the older version that I had (9.3.3),   and still nothing.Then when the download manager gets to the end of the download, it keeps saying Error: Installation failed but Adobe Air was still able to download so the problem is obviously flash 10.1. Then it tries to finish installing it and when its done it says that it couldn't register ActiveX control and that error 19166 occured. I already enabled ActiveX so I dont know what the problem could be.
Help would be appreciated and could someone explain what error 19166 is and how to register or install activex
ps. I had this problem a while back but somehow I was able to download flash version 9.3.3, so even if I can't download 10.1, can someone give me a link to download version 9 instead.

Thanks for your reply.I've tried/done everything on that page and I'm still having issues. And I've already disabled Norton and windows firewall and still nothing works.

Has anyone used switch control and siri at the same time?

Using Xmarks and Sync simultaneously will create a mess.
You can create a new profile, import the bookmarks from your main profile, and set up Sync for the new profile.
The flip side is, bookmarks from your main profile would not get synced with your new profile.
Alternatively, Xmarks is also available for Android.

What is the control/command to make the track scroll as you play it?

I seem to unwittingly turn the auto scrolling on and off. Sometimes the time line runs out of the window and other times the waveform scrolls and the time line stays centred. How do you control this?

Firefox keeps freezing up and giving me the colorful spinning wheel especially when I'm chatting with a friend of facebook or when i'm listening to music on myspace or even have just two tabs open and it's never done it before but now it just keeps giving me the colorful spinning wheel and i have to force quit and start over.

Hi If you get an error message saying your flash is blocked by firewall or needs updating or similar and you just get the spinning colour wheel try this link
It takes you to Adobe which tells you which ver of flash player you have - you can then see if there is a later ver by clicking on the library and it automatically selects the correct version for you to download.
Worked a treat for me! Good Luck

Ps Don't forget to use a browser other than firefox or you will be there for days.
