Popup for what tool I'm using?

I like to work in PS in fullscreen mode with the panels hidden. I also use the "precise" cursor for the tools. This makes it difficult to know what tool I'm using. For example, the cursor for the regular lasso tool and the polygonal lasso tool are the same, making it difficult to know what tool I'm using without showing the panels. Is possible to get like a popup (growl-notification or something?) when I change tools? A setting to change or an add-on perhaps?
thanks

I know of no such function that would work in full screen mode yet.
Quite frankly I don’t think there would be much merit in one, since many professional users probably use two screen set-ups anyway.
In case no bettewr advice should be fortcoming, you could use a Keyoboard Shortcut to trigger a Script that determines the currently selected tool and raises an alert of that.
But that would take focus and needs to be OK-ed or cancelled and the tools’ stringIDs are somewhat different from the regular names, so it may be a bad work-around.

What tool can i use to create an animation for iPad

What tool can i use to create an animation the will run in I.E., Firefox and iPad. I want to have a series of large buttons that i can scroll using arrows on the left and right side of the large buttons, with each button being a hot spot. I can't use Flash because it is not supported on the iPad.
Thanks,

I've been playing with both Edge and Hype, and I found that stuff I create in Hype actually works in IE 8, but stuff I create in Edge does not. I'm not sure what the difference is, other than perhaps Hype automatically writes some legacy scripts so that things will work in IE. Hype's not perfect, but it's doing the job for what I needed it to do, where Edge was no help at all (working in IE I mean).
I think Edge is a much better tool - more robust, greater feature set, but Hype seems a bit more forgiving and seems to play nicer with crappy browsers like IE.

If DW 2014.1 cc does not support database, binding, server behavior, and PHP/MySQL require it, but using Adobe Extensions Mngr IS NOT recommended, then WHAT TOOLS do we use to develop a database with DW?

I'm using windows DW 2014.1 cc. I'm following lynda.com tutorials to build a website database with PHP and MySQL. I learned I have to download Adobe Extension Mngr to active DATABASE, BINDING, SERVER BEHAVIOR panels, which I've done. BUT NOW I'VE BEEN ADVISED NOT TO USE THESE TOOLS for new development. If this is the truly the case, then WHAT TOOLS DO I USE to develop a website that has a database?

then WHAT TOOLS DO I USE to develop a website that has a database?
Besides the tools you would already need for a system using server behaviors (web server, PHP, MySQL, phpMyAdmin) the only extra tool you need is your own brain.
A lot of people are disappointed by the lack of database tools in DW now, but really it's much better this way. You can never achieve better than a rinky-dink dynamic website using server behaviors. The code Dreamweaver dynamic behaviors create is really terrible. (I'm not insulting the fine folks who wrote the feature. It's just a consequence of automated code.) You can write better, simpler, more maintainable code yourself, and over time you will improve. With server behaviors you cannot improve. you get stuck in database kindergarten.

What tools are being used with WLS 5.1?

I have been experimenting with WLS 5.1 and it is clear that there are many
steps in developing, testing, and deploying EJBs. What tools are being
used? How do IBM's Visual Age, JBuilder 4, and Visual Cafe EE stack up?
Are there any tools for developing and debugging JSPs?
Thanks,

Hi folks,
about the "IBM VisualAge 3.02 (Integration Kit)" that Nirav mentions below...
Does this integration kit work with Visual Age 3.5? If not, do you have any tool recommendations for VA3.5 users who are developing apps for WebLogic5.1?
Thanks,
Janet

Mike,
The level of integration between WLS and the tools is as follows (with
VisualCafe being the most integrated) --
1. VisualCafe Enterprise (or the WebGain Studio suite)
http://www.webgain.com/Products/index.htm
2. JBuilder 4 http://www.inprise.com/jbuilder/
3. IBM VisualAge 3.02 (Integration Kit beta up on BEA website)
http://commerce.beasys.com/downloads/weblogic_server.jsp#wlstools
All the integration's support development, local debugging, and local
deployment, but VisualCafe has wizards and like which generate code for the
J2EE specs that WLS supports.
I have read that JBuilder 4 supports JSP debugging but have not tried it yet.

Quick question! What tool should I use to make this logo?

I would like to know how to make the following image 1 to turn to image 2 ? What tool should I use? Thank you very much !

Probably the quickest way would be to use Offset Path, that is if the original file is vector artwork. Your two screen shot images do not match. If your assignment is to recreate the "CNN" logo, you'd be best to start with the internal Stroke ( White ). Use the existing artwork as a template Layer. Draw on a separate Layer going by the existing artwork. Simple Pen tool operation consisting of around eight anchor points. Once you've established the most accurate Stroke rendition, copy the file using a different name ( CNN02.ai or similar ). Outline the copy. Then, use Offset Path for the outer Red ( save that as CNN03.ai ). Copying in sequential steps allows you to go back just in case something does not look right. If accuracy is important, you'll have to resolve the "C" deviation you have right now.

What tools does Microsoft use to mock UI interfaces, flowchart, use cases, and UML diagrams?

I have searched google, but was not able to find article or blogs to answer this question. The questions asked here are very old. So I think this is a very relevant question today.
We are a .NET group and we to update how we storyboard our application development. What tools does Microsoft use to mock UI interfaces, flowcharts, and use cases? Specifically for projects that are either C# .NET MVC 5 and above (looking forward to
vNext).
In the past, power point was able to do some of these things, but it seems it has been deprecated? Does Visio use these things? Also, is Visual Studio's 2013 UML diagram any good or is there another tool in Microsoft's bag of goodies that has more options?
I have read about blend, but it does not seem to be .NET MVC specific.
Again, this is asking about what tools Microsoft teams usually use to storyboard as our team would like to mimic the more contemporary processes. We are in the process of upgrading our .NET applications and feel it is time to update our workflow process
as well.
Any book recommendations on TFS 2013 and agile are welcomed as well.

What tools do you use for automating builds?

Hi all Build Engineers,
what systems do you use for automating builds - do you use your own tools, or some opensource project?
If it is something public, which one it is, and what were the reasons to chose it?
We are thinking about using the Hudson system (http://hudson.dev.java.net/) for our developers, but would like to hear from other RE groups about their experiences too.
Thanks,
Karel

Tinderbox is another build monitoring tool. It does not show detailed steps of a build cycle. It only shows the final result : success or failed. But it can display build output for multiple platforms on the same page.
This is how the tinderbox build grid will look --> http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showbuilds.cgi?tree=SeaMonkey
Detail Info -->
http://www.mozilla.org/tinderbox.html
Tinderbox can be connected to Bonsai -->
It is a tool that shows you who checked in what, lets you perform queries on the contents of a CVS archive; get a list of checkins, see what checkins have been made by a whom, or on a given CVS branch, or in a particular time period.

IE8 Testing - what tool are you using?

I used to use IETester for testing in this browser. What tool is recommended now?

https://saucelabs.com/ if you dont have the hardware to virtualise.
Personally i just run everything in in VMWare from XP-windows8 /android/mac so I can see how each browser handles sites.
I found that F12 tools isn't as acurate as just loading them into the browser, it seems to be far more forgiving than it should be.

What tool do i use to add or subtract frames to a clip?

hi,
I want to click on a clip and add (or subtract) frames to a clip.
is it possible to add or subtract frames to one end of a clip as opposed both ends at the same time?
i need to add or subtract one frame at a time literarily. Control clicking is not precise enough.
what tool is this, or how do i do it?
thanks,
humbucker

Double click your clip in the Timeline and it opens in the Viewer.
You should see a double row of dots in the Viewer Scrubber Bar if it's opended correctly.
Make sure the playhead is at the end on the clip or exactly on the out point if one is entered.
Tap the back arrow key once to to move one frame backwards or however many frames required.
Set the new out point.
Note: A gap will appear in the Timeline that will need to be closed.

What tools should I use to create a UI for an AEGP plugin for CS6 on a Mac

I see that for CC the suggested UI tool is HTML5, but what should be used for developing a plugin that must also run in CS6 on a Mac?

For CS6, you can create panels using ScriptUI, to add a custom panel to the Window menu.
A script like this would be installed here: ..\Adobe After Effects CS6\Support Files\Scripts\ScriptUI Panels\
For ScriptUI, there is some documentation in the JavaScript Tools Guide, accessible from the ExtendScript Toolkit application > Help > JavaScript Tools Guide; and also here - http://www.kahrel.plus.com/indesign/scriptui.html

What tool does Macromedio use for on-line help?

Does anyone know what kind of tool or set of templates
macromedia uses for
their very excellent html-based on-line help files?
Thanks,

As a guess, I'd say that they use RoboHelp:

A cheaper alternative is Help & Manual which I use:
