Pop up menu in Folio files

Hi all, I try to make a pop up window in Indesign using the folio features. The pop up window must contain a scrollable text field and a image at the bottom (also in the scrollable field).
What I've already tried:
Transforming the pop up window into a button, hide it until it's triggered by another button didn't work. It worked in the SWF preview window, but didn't in the Adobe Content Viewer. It's meant for the iPad so swf files don't work.
I hope one of you have a little trick how to pull this off!
Thanks in advance.
Paul

You need to use a Multi State Object for that.
If you need more help you'll need to provide more information.

Is it possible to build pop-up menu on nav bar in a template??

Is it possible to build pop-up menu on nav bar in a
template??
There is anybody who built pop-up menu on nav bar in a
template, made changes to the pop-up menu and successfully updated
the pop-up menu in all files that are generated from the template?
I wanted to do this, but failed. So, I would appreciate your tips
if you have done that successfully.

I have. It's so troublesome, awkward, and arcane, I don't
suggest anyone
use these menus.
You might be interested in what the programmer who adapted
this code for
Macromedia has to say about these menus -

There are much better ways -

Ned to back up files. Trying to reformat a WD 1TB external hard drive but my utilities keeps saying "choose scheme from volume pop up menu.." also says cannot be modified. What can I do?!

Help would be appreciated! Before I upgrade my 10.6.8 OS X I need to back up files. Trying to reformat a WD 1TB external hard drive but my utilities keeps saying "choose scheme from volume pop up menu.." also says "this partition cannot be modified." What can I do?! Take it back to Currys! Many thanks

Select the Top Most Entry for that drive, it will be the drive model # and have the size listed, then go to the Partition tab and select One Partition from the Partition Layout area drop down. Then select Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format, if that is the format you want to format it AS. Then click the Options button near the bottom of that windows and select GUID as the Partition Table. Close the options screen and clcik the Apply button.

There is an exclamation pt. next to several songs in itunes. When I click on that song, it can't locate it. When I click on locate, it pops up a menu with numerous files. I'm afraid to click on the files. What's going on?

There is an exclamation pt. next to several songs in itunes. When I click on that song, it can't locate it. When I click on locate, it pops up a menu with numerous files. I'm afraid to click on the files. What's going on?

This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

Pop up menu on right clicking an image?

Hello,
I am new to LabWindows/CVI.
Requirement: "To get a pop-up menu on right clicking on image"
Right now, I display my images in window numbers (0 - 15). Is it possible to be able to get a pop-up menu on right clicking an image window. If yes, how? If not, could you please suggest other methods to achieve this task? Should I display the image in a separate parent panel for example? How could I do this?
Any help would be great.
Cheers

I would use the code generator for right click event. then fill it up with whatever code you want under right click case. You can access these when you double click your UIR file, then on the top of the page click Code\Preferences\Default... then choose desired events for picture then go to Code\Generate\all callbacks and skip through the ones you don't want to be replaced.

Dreamweaver 8 Behaviors for pop-up menu

I am a novice user of Dreamweaver 8. I created a site using
pop-up Behaviors for a dropdown navigation bar. I've read about a
lot of problems others are having, but part of my problem I have
not been able to locate anywhere.
After I created my template and want to save changes to the
template and update the files based on this template, I go thru a
series of JavaScript errors. It never updates any files in the end
and sometimes shuts down the program. An example of ONE of the
error messages is:
At line 1654 of file "C:\Program Files\Macromedia/Dreamweaver
8\Configuration\Behaviors\Actions\Show Pop-up Menu.js": The
function saveDocument() is currently unavailable.
The more pages attached, the more error messages I get....
all are .js errors.
The other problem is the links from the pop-up. I've double
checked them in the behavior pop-up menu... they appear to be
correct and sometimes work, but not all the time.
Everything I read says that I should create the navigation
with pop-ups (drop down menus) in Fireworks. Is Dreamweaver that
unreliable that this can't be done within itself?
If anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong to receive these
errors and how to correct my links so they are reliable, I would
very much appreciate it. I have recreated this site 6 times and the
errors are consistent.
Thanks, cjbyrnes

You read about all these problems, yet you pressed ahead and
used them? Why?
DW's Pop-up menus are incompatible with DW's templates.
Embarrassingly sad,
but true.
Did you read about and investigate any of the many
alternatives posted?

Show Pop-Up Menu error

I'm having a problem with my site menu. The site works off a
template and all links are created in the template. I have a
central menu bar with rollover buttons, each with their own
drop-down menu (using the Show Pop-Up Menu behavior). When tested
in the browser, the menu drops down on mouse-over as it's supposed
to, but when the links in the drop-down menu are clicked on, an
error page comes up. The directory path specified in the Pop-Up
Menu behavior is correct, but changes inexplicably when tested in
the browser. All other links in the site (not in drop-down menu
format) function as they're supposed to. I have no clue how to fix
this problem. I think there may be a script error in the mm_menu.js
file which is automatically created by Dreamweaver, but am not sure
how to go about correcting this. Any ideas?

Smart way to auto update pop-up menu in nav bar?

Smart way to keep updating pop-up menu in Nav bar ?
I created a template in DW 8. It is used to generate many
other pages for the site. only the page content region is editable.
There is a nav bar in the template. Some buttons of the nav bar
display pop-up menu when MouseOver . Those pop-up menu need to be
changed from time to time. What is the best way to automatically
update the pop-up menu in those templated-generated files, using
template (I tried to define the nav bar as editable region,
modified the pop-ups and saved the template. I got a lots of
unexpected problems, DW8 even crashed), using libray items or
something else? I am a relatively new DW developer. Much appreciate
if someone could help.

If the navigation is in a non-editable region of the
template, then changes
to it will propagate automatically to all child pages - are
you not seeing
that happen?
> I tried to define the nav bar as editable region
You wouldn't usually want to do that.
> I got a lots of unexpected problems, DW8 even
> crashed
You must have made other errors. Doing something like this
would surely not
crash DW.
The only problem with having the navigation in the
non-editable region of
the template is that a change to it will touch *every* file
in the site,
each of which must then be uploaded again. To solve this
problem you can
use server-side includes for the navigation. Then you would
make your
change to the include file, upload it, and all pages would
reflect that
change.

Pop-up menu feature and IE issues

I am using Firework MX 2004, Version 7.0 Build 288, to create drop down menus using the “Pop-up Menu” feature. The pop-up menus that I create work great in Netscape and Firefox, but fair in IE 6.0. The pop-up menus appear under certain elements such as select boxes in IE 6.0. I have read and tried some of the solutions on Blogs in regard to setting the z-index in div tags, but to no avail. Any help or work around would be greatly appreciated! Unfortunately, the huge company I work at switched from Netscape to IE 6.0 as the corporate platform, and I don’t have the patients to upgrade Fireworks if that is the solution. The last time I upgraded from Fireworks 4 toFirework MX 2004 the Macromedia Tech Support area had to e-mail me special registry entries for the product registration to work, and it took a very long time. I still have the emails to remind me of the pain. Thanks William!

I found this: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/158/tn_15842.html
And this:
Fireworks generated html and javascript calls its layers with a z-index beggining with a value of 1. Try doing a search of text external JS file and you will see your menus.
I would rename the offending layer that runs over the top of the menu layers in the with z-index:0
Also this: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/fireworks/articles/fw8_popups.html
Hope something here works, that being said...the menus from that version arenb't very good. a better solution is CSS menus. A quick solution is from Project Seven here:http://projectseven.com/products/menusystems/pmm2/index.htm for $95. It's a DW extension and simple to use. Alkso compatiple with most browsers.

Pop-up menu to list multiple time values (8:00 AM etc.) ?

I was looking at the option of using a pop-up menu to select times (8:00 AM etc.) from to keep from having to enter all the times in my spreadsheet manually. Has anyone done this before and is there a download or widget for this? Unfortunately for me, I would need it to be in increments of 5 minutes starting from 7AM to 7PM or so, which would be a tremendous amount of parameters added to a traditional pop-up menu.
Thanks for any input.

Thanks for the insight, it seems to make good sense to me with your process to create multiple pop-ups and/or sliders. Since I'm still new to iWork Numbers though, are the tables you illustrated in your reply saved in a separate spreadsheet to use as a reference for the pop-up in other, separate spreadsheets? Is that what LOOKUP is used for (to reference another sheet)?
My invoice has a single cell for an "IN" time and another for an "OUT" time; all incorporated to a fairly "busy" invoice that can't accommodate any additional cells in those areas.
Both tables are on the same sheet, but I placed them on separate tables on that sheet.
They don't have to be on separate tables, and they don't have to be on the same sheet, but they do have to be in the same document, as Numbers does not provide for linking to separate documents/files.
With the busy invoice in your case, you could place the popup and slider cells (two of each) on a separate table, and only the result cells on the same table as your invoice. The popups and sliders could go on the same table as the lookup array, but that table would then have to be both visible and unlocked.
Placing the Lookup array on a separate table allows you to lock that table to prevent accidental changes to it. You can also easily hide the Lookup table by placing it behind the main table (your invoice), or on a second sheet in your document.
Placed on the same table as the rest of the invoice, you can still hide it simply by hiding the two columns containing the lookup information.
An alternate method, requiring no extra cells or tables would be to Use Insert Date and Time (in the Insert menu, or from the keyboard with shift-option-command-D ) to insert the date and time directly.
There are some complications with this which might make it unusable, depending on how many people need to be trained and how well they take to training. Insert Date and Time starts with the assumption that what you really want to do is insert the date. Changing its mind takes a couple of extra steps that must be done immediately, and each time.
1. Click on the cell to select it.
2. Go Insert > Date and Time (or press shift-option-command-D )
3. Before taking any other action, double click the cell (which will now be displaying the current date) to open a small dialogue.
4. In the dialogue, use the popup menu to choose one of the Time only formats.
5. Click outside the dialogue to dismiss it.
The cell will now contain the current Date and Time value, and will display the current time.
Note that the Time, when inserted this way, will be the time that the insertion was done, and won't be rounded to the nearer five minutes.
You'll find a discussion of LOOKUP (and the two related functions, VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP in the iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide, and an excellent overview of Numbers (including explanation of the terms I've used above) in the Numbers '09 User Guide. Both can be downloaded using the menu items in the Help menu in Numbers. Both are recommended reading for new and old users of Numbers alike.

How to show a blank or clear cell for the first entry in a numbers pop-up menu on a mac. I can do it on the iPad but not on the mac. Thank you.

Can you please advise how to show a blank or clear cell as the first option in a pop -up menu on a Mac, I can see how on an IPad but but not on the Mac.
Thank you.

Hi grm,
Yvan Koenig wrote an Applescript to create an popup menu with a true blank menu item. You can find it in Yvan's Box Account public area. Click on for_iWork'09, then for-numbers'09, then look for and download popup_with_nil.zip. Unzip the file, then open it with ScriptEditor.
Yvan's scripts include instructions (in French and English) on how and where to save the script and how to use it. I haven't read this one recently, so I can't give you any further details on it.
Regards,
Barry

The spry pop-up menu I built in Adobe Dreamweaver worked fine in my old Firefox, I updated Firefox today and the menu no longer works--despite disabling the pop-up blocker in Firefox preferences...what's the problem??? I need the menu to work!!!

I built a new pop-up menu for my website using Spry in Adobe Dreamweaver. Because of some differences in .HTML and .XHTML
it took me days to get it right. I tested every variation in Firefox until it worked perfectly. Today, I installed the newest version of Firefox and now the pop-up no longer works. I changed the preferences in Firefox to disable to pop-up blocker and it STILL DOESN'T WORK...although an older style of pop-up menu (menu machine) which is no longer supported by Adobe, DOES WORK.
HELP!!! THIS IS IMPORTANT.

pixlor:
OP is using CS3 and the menu blog is talking about the menus
in earlier
versions of FW, so *most* of the points made in the blog
don't apply.
That's not to say that using CS3 pop-up menus is a *good*
thing....

JComboBox event notification when select first entry in pop-up menu JDK 6

I recently began testing a Java GUI, I originally developed with JDK 1.5.0_11, with JDK 1.6.0_3. I have used the JComboBox in several applications developed using JDK 1.3.x and 1.4.x over the years. In every one of these earlier JDKs the JComboBox widgets all behaved the same. When you select the JComboBox widget, the pop-up menu appears and you can select any of the items from the menu list. Having made the selection with either a mouse click or a key press, an event notification is sent. Typically, an ActionEvent as well as either a mouse click event or a keypressed event may be sent. When testing with 1.6.0_x versions of the JDK and JRE, I can't account for any event notification being sent when selecting the first item at the top of the pop-up menu as the initial selection. If I select some other item on the list and then the first item, it works as it is supposed to work, but only after selecting another item first.
I've placed the JComboBox in a JDialog and a JPanel. There are NO AWT widgets in any containers of the application. The same behavior seems to exist regardless of what other containing Swing component I place the JComboBox in. I'm running these applications on Windows XP, service pack 2. The system is an AMD 64 bit dual processor with 4Gb of RAM. The essential code follows:
private JComboBox getJcboAlias()
    /* Note here that I am using a defaultComboModel as I have always done */
   jcboAliases = new JComboBox(urls);
   *jcboAliases.setEditable(false);*                               // Note here that the JComboBox is NOT editable
   jcboAliases.addActionListener(new ActionListener()   // ActionListener only receives a notification if the second or
   {                                                                            // another item in the pop-menu list is selected...but never the
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae)           // first item in the list
         String s = (String) jcboAliases.getSelectedItem();
         for (int i = 0; i < connections.size(); i++)
            conAlias = (String[]) connections.get(i);
            if (s.equals(conAlias))
isSelected = true;
break;
jlblName.setVisible(true);
jlblAlias.setVisible(true);
jlblUID.setVisible(true);
jlblPWD.setVisible(true);
jtxtName.setText(conAlias[0]);
jtxtName.setVisible(true);
jtxtAddress.setText(conAlias[1]);
jtxtAddress.setVisible(true);
jtxtUID.setText(conAlias[2]);
jtxtUID.setVisible(true);
jtxtPWD.setVisible(true);
jtxtPWD.setText("");
jtxtPWD.requestFocus();
return jcboAliases;
}    I'm using a non-editable JComboBox because there is a pop-up menu with this and not with the JList widget. JComboBox behaves more like the JList MicroSoft counterpart. Another code snippet follows in which the JComboBox is editable. The same errant behavior occurs when selecting the first item from the pop-up menu: private JComboBox getJcboPCMember()
jcboPCMember = new JComboBox(PCViewerCustom.getCurrentMembers());
jcboPCMember.setBounds(250, 103, 180, 20);
jcboPCMember.setToolTipText("PATHCHECK(ER) member name - Example: CKPPTHCK");
jcboPCMember.setSelectedIndex(Integer.valueOf(PCViewerCustom.getCurrentHost(3)));
jcboPCMember.setEditable(true); // Note here that this JComboBox IS editable
jcboPCMember.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae)
if (ae.getActionCommand().equals("comboBoxEdited"))
boolean copy = false;
for (int i = 0; i < jcboPCMember.getItemCount(); i++)
if (jcboPCMember.getSelectedItem().equals(jcboPCMember.getItemAt(i)))
copy = true;
break;
if (!copy)
if (jcboPCMember.getItemCount() > 0)
if (jcboPCMember.getItemAt(0).equals("No Entries"))
jcboPCMember.removeItem("");
jcboPCMember.removeItem("No Entries");
jcboPCMember.insertItemAt((String) jcboPCMember.getSelectedItem(), 0);
else
jcboPCMember.removeItem("");
jcboPCMember.addItem((String) jcboPCMember.getSelectedItem());
enableJbtnOK();
else
if (jcboPCMember.getSelectedIndex() >= 0)
PCViewerCustom.setCurrentHost(3, Integer.toString(jcboPCMember.getSelectedIndex()));
enableJbtnOK();
else
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Name not selected", "Error", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
return jcboPCMember;
     I am able to add a new entry to the JComboBox, however, I am still unable to select the first item from the pop-up menu and fire any kind of notification event. I have not seen this behavior before in any earlier versions of the JDK and it's playing havoc with my ability to deploy the application into a JDK or JRE V6 environment, without adding a bunch of additional code to pre-select the first item on the list, which pretty much defeats the purpose of the JComboBox. I'll be the first to admit I've done something wrong, but i've built a number of test scenarios now on two systems runing Win XP SP2 and I get the same errant behavior. I've also added in event listeners for a MouseListerner, a KeyListener and an ItemListener. Still no event notification on this first item in the list. Again, however, if I select one of the other items from the pop-up menu list and then select the first item, all is well. Imagine selling that method of operation to a user.... It occurs to me that this must be a bug in the V6 JComboBox. I wanted to post this here first, however, in order to determine if this is, in fact, a bug - in other words, am I the only one seeing this, or is this a more widespread issue? Any assistance in making this determination is greatly appreciated.

Where do I find the Style pop-up menu so I can choose mailing labels?

I've set out below the Help item for printing mailing labels from Address Book but I don't get any Style option with my printer which is a reasonably up to date HP 1200 Laser. Have I got the settings wrong somewhere
To print mailing labels:
Select All or a group in the Group column, or select specific contacts in the Name column.
If contacts in the group you selected have multiple addresses, you can choose which address to use for each contact.
Selecting addresses for group members
Choose File > Print.
Choose Mailing Labels from the Style pop-up menu, and then set other options:
Layout: Choose a type of label from the Page pop-up menus. Select Define Custom to set the page margins and the gutter space between labels, and to specify how many labels to print on a page.
Label: Choose which addresses to use from the Addresses pop-up menu. Choose the order in which to print the labels using the “Print in” pop-up menu. Add a small graphic to the labels by clicking the Image Set button; change the font by clicking the Font Set button.
Click Print.

Assuming you are in Address Book, you choose the records you want to print and then the File/Print menu selection.
If the printer menu comes up with only the name of the printer and "Presets" dropdown choices, you click on the arrow to the right of the printer name to expand the print menu. Make sure the box below the pages to print is showing "Address Book" and you will see the "Style" below it.
