Pop-Up Help Bubbles

I would like to create help bubbles, like thos in programs like word etc, where when a user has thier cursor over a certain component a little popup bubble will appear explaining wot that component does. I can not seem to find if there is such a command in java and i there is, is anyone able to tell me? thanks for your help.

  • Create a pop-up help message

    Hello,
    I'm looking for  a way to create a pop-up help message.  What I want to have is 'section help' button.  When a user clicks on the button, a small screen pops-up with instruction how to fill out the form. 
    I'm trying to use the below but it looks so ugly.
    xfa.host.messageBox("Please select the application that you need to request an account for" , "Select Application(s)", 5, 5);
    I searched the web and came across the pop-up pdf http://forums.adobe.com/message/2386742#2386742
    I however, don't know how to make the button float on top of the form.  Could you please explain to me how to create a button from a pdf and how to make it float on top of the form?
    Thank you very much for your help.
    Best regards,
    Sahra

    You can put text into the Tool Tip box in the Accessibility palette for that.

  • Pop up help Tips

    Hello, I am  a new user of Windows 8.1, i have a problem with the pop up help tips, I don't have a tactil screen I use only mouse. How can I  disable this application. Sorry for my english...

    Hope you meant pop tips for first time users. Usually just follow the tutorial, quickly navigate to the next window and then it will stop once the tutorial is finished.
    If not, try this method.
    Press windows key + R, type gpedit.msc
    On the left side, go to User Configuration -> Administrative Templates ->
    Windows Components -> Edge UI. Open
    Disable help tips. Select Enabled.
    You should not be getting any more tips. Hope this helps.

    field help. Right now all I see is using a like to a static
    HTML page for the display name of a field.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks

  • How can I turn off the pop-up "Help HP Design Products You Want"? (8600 printer)

    The pop-up window "Help HP Design the Products you want" keeps returning every 5 minutes all day long
    regardless of how I respond to it!  Can this be turned Off?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    What printer are you using?
    What OS do you have?
    Does it give a program name when it pops up, or does it just give you that message and a couple of options to choose from?

  • Add a help bubble at Home, Next & Previous buttons

    Hi,
    Can we add balloon help on 'Home', 'Next' and 'Previous' buttons?
    Thanks in advance.

    So are you showing only one record at a time? If so, this can be very simple.
    1. Create a variable to hold the next record you want to display. Create another for the previous record (you already have the current record).
    2. Create a custom procedure and set the value of the next and previous record ID's using an SQL query of your choice.
    3. On the NEXT button, set it to Submit and set the target page to be the same page. Set the value of the current record ID to be that of the next record ID. When the page refreshes, it should grab the appropriate record.
    4. Following that idea, on the PREVIOUS button, set it also to Submit to the same target (the page you are on now). Set the value of the current record ID to be that of the previous record ID.
    Try that and see how it goes.

  • Asian characters pop into text bubbles when I chat...

    Hi. I am having issues with iChat. When I type into the message field in iChat my text is in English. When I hit return, when the message is displayed into the bubbles, my text turns into Asian characters, which, of course, I am unable to read. However, the person that I am chatting with can see my words in English.
    I also notice that some headers (text headlines) on websites are displaying as fractional numbers and such as well. There must be something going on with my system that I just cannot pinpoint.
    Has anyone heard of this happening before? Please advise...
    Thanks.

    Go to Font Book and makes sure you do not have Helvetica Fractions Active.
    There are some other Fonts that cause similar issues so it may not be this one specifically.
    However this certainly should not be active for iChat.

  • ITunes (10.5) Keeps Popping Up, Help

    This is extremely annoying. Ever since I enabled wifi sync on my iphone 4 and ipad 2 itunes keeps randomly popping up out of nowhere. It always shows just my iphone device (not my ipad) on it and it's not even syncing. I even did a wireless sync to see if it will stop and itunes still keeps popping up for no reason. I am running Win7. Any ideas? Is this happening to anyone else?
    Thanks
    Jay

    Same here, same circumstances.  Occurring since Wi-Fi sync was enabled on an iPhone and iPad, won't stop despite Wi-Fi being disabled for both now.

  • I deauthorized all my computers but now how do i choose to authorize each one? no options are popping up. help

  • Trust this Computer - iPad/iMac Message Keeps Popping Up - HELP???

    I see plenty of reported issueson this subject, but none that fix my problem.
    iMac has latest OSX and iTunes versions, iPad is updated to iOS 7.1.  I even tried reinsatalling OSX (thought I'd got away from reinstalls when I dropped Windows!!!).
    But I still get bing, bing, bing, bing, bing ... and the "Trust this Computer" pop-up every second until I unplug the (original Apple) USB cord
    Any suggestions how to get around this annoying problem - which may have started after iOS 7.1 upgrade.
    Thanks!

    Hello there TedJ,
    It sounds like your phone keeps connecting and disconnecting over and over until you unplug your iPhone from the computer. I recommend the troubleshooting in the following article named:
    iOS: Troubleshooting USB-related alerts when syncing
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5254?viewlocale=en_US
    Try the following steps to check the connection between your device or computer. You might need to do only one of these steps to resolve the issue, so test your connection after each step.
    See if the cable connection at the device or computer has come loose or unplugged.
    Unplug the cable you're using to connect your iOS device from the USB port on your computer, and then reconnect it. Then unplug it from your iOS device, and reconnect it.
    Remove any third-party battery packs or cases from the device and ensure that the USB cable is connected directly to the port on the device.
    If your Lightning or 30-pin cable is connected to a keyboard, display or USB hub, try plugging it directly into a USB port on the computer instead.
    Close any virtualization apps (such as Parallels or VMWare).
    These apps may interfere with your computer's ability to communicate over USB if they aren't properly configured, or up to date. If this resolves the issue, contact the developer of the app to see if an update is available.
    Restart your computer.
    Restart your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch.
    If you're using an accessory or third-party cable to connect your device, try using an Apple cable with the device instead.
    Update to the latest version of iTunes if you have not already.
    Disconnect other USB devices from your computer, except for your keyboard and mouse. Then, reconnect your iOS device. If the issue is resolved, reconnect the other USB devices one at a time. Make sure your iOS device is still recognized by the computer after adding back each device.
    If one of these steps resolves the issue, but it comes back later, make sure you haven't changed how the device is connected. For example, check to see if you plugged the device into a specific accessory, or used a specific cable that reintroduced the issue.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling
