Quick pick toolbar

I have continuously encountered an issue pertaining to my ability of keeping the customized toolbar the way I left them. Every time time I exit Adobe, then re-open, the toolbar resets back to its default. I have spoken with an Adobe technician in the past; he walked me through a process of deleting a temporary file stored within my C drive, that apparently allows Adobe to re-open the program with my customized toolbar still in tact. If this is the only solution to my issue, would you please provide me once again with the steps I need to take. Thank you.

Hi BWhiteC,
When I add a tool to the quick pick toolbar, it does stick.
I do this by clicking the Gear icon on the toolbar to open the Edit Tool Set dialog.
I add the tools I want (they are added to the default tool set.
I click Save at the bottom of the dialog.
My toolbar remains as I set it.
Are you adding tools the same way?
If not, can you describe what you do that is not working.
Regards,
Charlene

Adobe Acrobat Std XI - Quick Pick Toolbar

Had issues with Acrobat Pro 9.5 so uninstalled and upgraded to XI Std. Customized the quick pick toolbar with all the tools used most often. Opened a pdf and all the customization disappeared. Added the tools back in but they keep disappearing. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

Can't Open File Explorer -- How can I reset the Quick Access Toolbar from outside of File Explorer?

First of all, this is not a virus. This is my a bug within windows explorer itself.
So, I added the properties button to the QAT, and it displayed it as an expandable menu, like this: ";" but with small arrows like this: ">". didn't want this, I wanted to click on it and immediately display the properties of the file
to me. So, I hovered over it, right-clicked on "Properties" in this menu and added it to the QAT. Of course, this crashes File Explorer. Now whenever I try and open it, it crashes, so I have to assume that the corrupted button has been saved.
So, my question is: How do I reset the QAT from OUTSIDE of file explorer? Regedit magic? Any ideas?
Thanks for stopping by,
Trolleyman.
Edit: Just so you know, I can navigate through my systems files using the 7-zip file manager. Phew.

Thanks from me too, Niki. This first happened with Windows 8.0 File Manager a week ago,, and despite much research I couldn't discover the cause so eventually I resorted to restoring the system drive from backup (luckily I make daily backups,
so didn't lose much work).
Without knowing the cause a few days later I again tried to alter the Quick Access Toolbar and the problem reappeared. Should I again resort to restoring the entire system drive, the thought horrified me. But
luckily while doing a bit more research prior to resorting to the same drastic recovery, I cane across this post of yours and it worked!
It doesn't seem to be happening with Office 2007's or Wordpad's Quick Access Toolbar, so presumably it's a File Explorer bug (a.k.a. Windows Explorer in Windows 7, of course). Have Microsoft recorded this as
a bug -- if not, why not -- and when are they coming up with a fix?

Word 2013 - Publish as PDF or XPS button causes excessive registry queries / high CPU when added to quick access toolbar

After installing Office 2013 Pro Plus on our XenApp 6.5 environment we noticed a drop in performance. Using taskmanager we could see winword.exe hit 20+% CPU usage when filling just 1 line with the same letter.
Some investigating lead us to the "Publish as PDF or XPS button", when it is added to the quick access toolbar the cpu usage doubles during keystrokes. Using procmon I noticed excessive registry reading, up to 150,000 lines in 10 seconds.
It seems to be a constant loop of the same queries to approx. 100 components in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\
I reproduced this in 3 different setups:
Win2008R2 + Office2013 Pro Plus 32-bit + Office 2013 updates until 12-nov 2014
Win 8.1 Laptop + Office2013 Pro Plus 32-bit + Office 2013 updates until 05-jan 2015
Win 8.1 Desktop + Office2013 Pro Plus 64-bit + Office 2013 updates until 17-dec 2014
Can anyone verify this behaviour? For now we've removed the shortcut from the quick access toolbar in our environment.
Here's a small portion of the queries.

I'll do that, I'm however still interested if somebody can confirm the excessive registry queries.
As a brief test, I captured winword.exe (2013) registry-reads on my Win8.1 pc (64bit Windows), with ProcMon.
this is over a capture period of less than one second
2092 of 2352 contain "component" in the reg path
this is when I have winword open and whilst "File, Export" is displayed (this is what offers the export-to-PDF option)
vs. 168 registry operations in an interval of 10 seconds, by winword.exe, if word is simply "running in background with an open blank document"
I'm not sure if that is useful, but it seems an awful lot of registry reads/writes from an application which isn't apparently doing anything at the time..
EDIT: similar registry read/write rate, when save-as-pdf is added to QAT (again sitting idle on a blank document). the registry read/write rate drops back down to 160 if the save-as-pdf feature is then removed from QAT.

Programatically add button/tool to the "Quick Tools" Toolbar (plug-in)

Hi,
I've been porting an old version of a plug-in we had built for Adobe Acrobat Standard/Pro and I'm having trouble finding a way to add an already created toolbar and button to the "Quick Tools" toolbar.
I'm able to create a new toolbar and a button/label that appears under the "Tools --> *name of my toolbar*".
It is possible, after the button exists to manually add it to the Quick Tools toolbar, through the Menu option "Edit the current toolset", selecting the tool item and adding it to the Quick Tools toolbar.
I would like to automate this by doing it programatically, after adding the toolbar/button.
Thanks,
Bernardo

Hi Ironsenth. Thank you for your reply.
Is there any other way to place a plug-in button on a visible toolbar? Now the button appears in the (newly created) toolbar hidden under the Tools sidebar, on the right.
I would like to ensure that by installing the plug-in the users would have a noticeable way to recognize that it is installed and working properly.
Thank you,
Bernardo

Embed word document in C# winforms, Have to disable/hide Quick access toolbar.

Hi Team,
Currently i am embedding a word document in winforms. I need to disble/hide/remove the quick access toolbar from the word, i was tried in different ways like below ways in C# but it's not working .
With oDocument.Application.CommandBars("Standard")'disable the standard toolbar
.Enabled = False
.Visible = False
End With
WebBrowser1.ExecWB OLECMDID_HIDETOOLBARS, OLECMDEXECOPT_DONTPROMPTUSER'toggle between "reviewing" and "standard"
toolbar
End Sub
Any help would be highly appreciate.Thanks.

Hi Ravindra
The code you're trying to use is for the old "toolbar" GUI that was discontinued in the Office applications starting with version 2007. CommandBars is still present in the object model and does interact with the new "Ribbon" interface
to a certain extent, but it's NOT used to affect visibility.
The Ribbon GUI, introduced in Office 2007, is defined by "Ribbon XML" and cannot be affected by code running from outside the application interface, nor by code running in-process that's not part of the same "container" as defines the
Ribbon XML.
From the screen shot you provide, it looks like you want to work with a specific type of document ("Custom Letter")? If yes, then it would be best for you to create a template that contains the Ribbon definition you want to provide for that type
of document. In order to suppress the QAT you need to use the "startFromScratch" command for the customUI which also means that the Ribbon XML must define the ENTIRE Ribbon interface you want to provide to your users.
You'll find the basics about customizing the Ribbon in the three-part article "for developers". You can find links to that, as well as to other information concerning the Ribbon,here:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/ba8c9d0b-7312-4503-8167-f2ef86f17435/information-on-the-office-fluent-ui-ribbon-for-developers?forum=officegeneral

How to quickly pick up a 2nd call and drop the first call

If I am on a phone call, and then a second call comes in, then how can I quickly pick up the second call and DROP the first call? I can do it if I put the first call on hold but then I have two calls going. If I simply END the first call, then it takes 5 or 6 seconds for the second call to come in. Several times I have lost the second call because it took too long to transition over.

never mind i did a direct chat with a skype rep and got my answer which is no.

Any way to use a quick and dirty icon like cLabel in the quick tools toolbar?

I am a javascript cut-and-paster with ability to cobble things together.
In previous versions of Acrobat, I had tools that were added to the toolbar using the technique shown in this script:
app.addToolButton({cName: "MyFlattenButton",
   cLabel: "Flatten",
   cEnable: "event.rc = (app.doc != null);",
   cExec: "flattenPages();"
That would create a toolbar button with the "icon" that read "Flatten" which is all that I needed. I could click on it and it would flatten all pages in the document.
I used this to create several different tools, all with different names and cLabels.
This script still works in Acrobat XI (it adds the tool to the add-on tools list, and then I can add it from there to the quick tools toolbar). The cLabel names show up in the add-on tools list, but not in the quick tools toolbar. In the toolbar they all use the same generic icon (but they all work correctly).
From reading in this forum I see that there is a way to create a custom icon but it does not look easy. Is there any simple way to just have text appear as the icon as I used to do for earlier versions of Acrobat?
Thanks.

One further question...
I found a code snippet somewhere online that attempted to deal with this issue. That led me to this (failed) solution:
this.importIcon("myIconFlat", "/D/J/CAD Standards/Stamps/Acrobat tools/flatten.jpg", 0);
var flatIcon = util.iconStreamFromIcon(this.getIcon("myIconFlat"));
app.addToolButton({cName: "MyFlattenButton",
   cLabel: "Flatten",
   oIcon: flatIcon,
   cEnable: "event.rc = (app.doc != null);",
   cExec: "flattenPages();"
The problem there is that importIcon is not allowed from a folder-level javascript, apparently. Would there be any way to use the importIcon part of this from the console and then cut and paste some output into the rest of the script? Just looking for a way to get the icon into my script.

Quick Launch Toolbar Issue

I set up a few icons in my Quick Launch Toolbar and now the line size has doubled. I only want the toolbar to be one line high, but it is two. Does that make sense? The time/date, windows security, network icons on the right are in a small square pattern instead of being horizontal in a one line format. If I hide the quick launch it returns to normal, but if I show it I get a big blue block across the screen. If I grab the top I can make it bigger but if I pull it down I can get to two lines and the next step is all the way down, out of sight. Does anyone have a remedy for this. I hope I explained that well. Thank you.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I just somehow fixed it. As I accidentally mucked it up, I did the same and fixed it. Thanks anyway.

Access Outlook Shared/Delegated contacts in Word 2010's Quick Access Toolbar (QAT)

Hello Nerds,
Is there any way to access Outlook Shared/Delegated contacts in Word 2010's Quick Access Toolbar (QAT).
I am able to see shared/delegated contacts in Outlook by clicking "Open Shared Contacts" but Word's 2010 QAT does not have any option to add/open shared contacts.
Thanks much

Hi,
Do you mean add Delegated Access or Shared Contact command to QAT in Word 2010?
These two commands only belong to Outlook, so we can’t add them to QAT in Word 2010.
More reference about Add commands to Quick Access Toolbar:

Hope it can be helpful.

Is it possible to show the 'Quick Tools' toolbar in a browser?

I have Acrobat Pro X installed and I want to see the 'Quick Tools' toolbar in the browser but I can't figure out how to do this.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

You can't. Because editing a PDF in the browser window isn't a supported workflow, Acrobat X only ever displays a single-row toolbar that does not include the Quick Tools region (the entire Tools Pane is omitted).

FM 12 - Quick Element Toolbar

I'm giving the trial version of FM 12 a quick test. One thing I noticed right away is that I can't seem to actually open the new Quick Element toolbar. Selecting View > Toolbars > Quick Element Toolbar does nothing except place a (second) Help button in the toolbar. Checking the quick_element.xml config file for the workspace suggests that I should be seeing a handful of buttons for adding standard elements to the open file. Is there another setting that I'm missing?
I'm just using the default DITA template for FM 12. Nothing special there.
Thanks for any help.
--Steve

The Quick Element Toolbar seems to be hardcoded to show (all items) only when the structured application is set to only these three DITA structured apps:
DITA_1.2_topic
DITA_1.2_task
DITA_1.2_concept
For all other structured aplications, it is set to only to the Help.
See the quick_element.xml file in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\FrameMaker\12\WorkSpaces\Structured\WYSIWYGView \toolbars

Auto-Hide Ribbon - Quick Access Toolbar disappears

In Outlook 2013 I select to auto-hide the ribbon but this also hides the Quick Access Toolbar. Why does it do that. When the ribbon is hidden there is still space for the quick access tool bar so why hide it? It would be really useful to be able to see the
quick access tool bar (in the available space) when the ribbon is auto-hidden. Now, if I want to use the quick access toolbar with the ribbon hidden I have to un-hide the ribbon first.
Can we see the quick access tool bar when the ribbon is hidden?

Hi,
By default, Auto-hide Ribbon causes the tabs, ribbons and quick access toolbar to completely disappear, giving you the maximum amount of space to edit documents.
If you want to show the Quick Access Toolbar, we can just select Show Tabs which
shows only tabs, along with the quick access toolbar, but without their associated ribbon commands.

Quick Picks and Dynamic Actions not working

I have a page item that includes Quick Pick values. This item also includes a dynamic action to update another item when triggered by a change event. The problem is, quick picks do not trigger change events. Has anyone else seen this and come up with a solution? Thanks.

Hi,
the JavaScript code generated for the Quick Picks is using $s which triggers the change event for the target page item.
I just tried that out and it worked fine for me.
1) I have defined a text field with a few quick pick values.
2) Declared a dynamic action which fires on "Change". No condition set
3) The action is defined as "Alert"
The alert always shows when I pick a value with a quick pick.
Can you put an example on apex.oracle.com so that I can have a look.
Regards
