Reset mouse start position

I'm working on a project where the content is information,
screen capture, more info, another capture etc.
The problem I'm having is the mouse is starting on the 2nd
capture where it finished on the first capture.
Is there any way of breaking the mouse chain, so that it
starts again in the centre?

Hi there trinitybay9
Yep. Just duplicate the slide where the mouse stopped just
before you wish to reposition it. Remove all objects but the mouse.
Place the mouse at the new desired starting point. Now adjust the
timing of both the mouse and the slide for .1 seconds.
The net result should be that the mouse pops to the new start
position so quickly the user doesn't notice it.

Set Start Position to Calculate Travel Time in Calendars

Hi All,
I am quite impressed with the new traveling time feature in Calendars, however I cannot seem to get the best out of it.
Is there a way to reset the start position for the calculations, I am thinking about the following senario;
Three appointments in the same day Appointment one calculates OK but appointment two calculates the start from the office and not the location of appointment one. Same thing happens with appointment three.
What I want to do is set the first appointment, calculate travelling time, set the second and calculate the traveling time from appointment one and then the same with appointment three.
The only way I have found to do this is to jump back and forward between calendar and maps and manually calculate like I used to do before this update.
Thanks in advance for any replies.

This solved my questionRe: Calendar Travel Time Starting from Work when I want to Start from Home Oct 23, 2013 8:43 PM (in response to theglenlivet12)
From Calendar's help:
To set your starting location, Calendar first looks for your location in any events that are up to three hours before this event. If Calendar doesn’t find a location, it uses your work address during work hours and your home address during other hours. (Your work hours are set in Calendar preferences using the “Day starts at” and “Day ends at” menus.) If your card in Contacts doesn’t have your addresses, Calendar uses your computer’s current location.

Mouse pointer position at start up

I know this may seem beyond lazy but...
Is there any way to change the mouse pointer position at startup? I would much prefer it to be in the middle of the screen rather than way in the topleft corner.
One other question: I still think window minimize/maximize/close buttons (not sure what you would call them) that are on top left for apple and top right for PC are more conveniently located on the right side (and there really aren't many things I could honestly say I prefer about PC). May be it's just me but my pointer spends most of its time on the bottom and right side of the screen. Is there a way to change the position of the buttons?
Sorry if this has been addressed before but I couldn't find it.

The short answer to both of your questions is no.
However, you may be able to use some sort of theme software that will allow you to change the position of the buttons by changing the appearance of the windows. There are, from what I understand, hundreds of themes that you can try. Maybe one of them will put the buttons on the other side of the window. You might check out Shape Shifter.
http://www.unsanity.com/haxies/shapeshifter
One caveat, Shape shifter is a system hack and as such may add some instability to the system.
As for the position of the cursor I don't really know unless you can find some sort of third party program that will do it. You might take a look at Version Tracker and see if there is something there.

How can I get mouse pressed and mouse released positions on the desktop whi

Hello All,
I am generating a Frame using Swing API. My requirement is I need to capture the mouse pressed and mouse released positions, whenever user drags the mouse on desktop region (i.e. outside of the Frame). I require these points to find the rectangle region user has generated starting from mouse pressed to mouse released position. I need to pass that rectangle to Robot class in order to capture that desktop region.
Can anybody help me out how can I achieve this using java on MAC, Linux and Windows platforms?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
VPKVL

Your thoughts ?They use JNI with the OS API.

How can i set the pointer of a resultset to its start position? newbie.. :(

hi all.
i have a resultset of a sql query. then i wanna count the number of rows by doing a while loop:
while(rs.next())
count++;
then i wana do the same again, but it does not work anymore. i guess i have to set the pointer to its starting position, but i tried beforeFirst(), first(), absolute() and it didnt work. what method do i have to use for this?
thanks! :)
j0sh

Use the getType method to determine if your ResultSet is of type TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY. If it is
then you cannot reset the cursor. You may be able to obtain a result set that allows reseting the cursor by
passing the appropriate arguments to the createStatement method of your Connection. Whether your
will get one or not depends on the JDBC driver you are using and whether it supports them.

Curser start position

How do i get the curser to be in the txt box i want it to be in the beginning...
also is there a way i can chose which txt box it goes to when i hit tab and i hate it when
i hit tab and it goes to the bottom play and pause buttons... can i stop that? thanks.. Im new

Hi there
For the mouse, you may only adjust the starting position on the first slide where it appears. Every slide after that uses the stop position of the slide before as the start position for that slide. If you need to adjust it, duplicate the slide and remove all objects except the mouse. Change the mouse to the new desired starting point and adjust the mouse and the slide so the play time is super brief. Perhaps .1 seconds.
As for the tabbing, you may need to insert a Click Box that doesn't do anything if it is clicked. This would then receive the tab focus and keep it from the playback controls. Or, you could visit fellow Adobe Community Expert Paul Dewhurst's site linked below and download a gizmo that will remove the highlight.

I cannot download a new Version because in my Purchased List the applicaiton (FaceTime) is still there, and because I have halted it it tells me to resume. I can’t, because the same thing is going to happen. I have tried all the various troubleshooting tips supplied by my ISP and also Apple Support with no luck. I am currently working on a IMac OS 10.6.7. Has anybody got any ideas? Any suggestion would help. Thanks

As I said, I tried everything what the manual says, but hard luck. I have taken an appointment for today, lets see what happens.
Also there is no activity on unit when I use the remote. The unit is stuck on the first page itself where we have to choose the language. The unit seems to be fine to me but the real problem is remote does'nt have activity. The IR is not responding while pressing any of the button.
Good luck with your appointment.
Not much consolation but even new products can have issues and might need a trip to a store to return/replace.
The reason i asked about the LED on the AppleTV is that occasionally it thinks it's paired with a specific remote and ignores others - the unpair keypress I described is quick and free.

Specify Starting Position in Sender FCC

Hi Experts Team,
I wish to specify the starting position of field in sender FCC.
can i????

Hi,
I think positions we can't identify with FCC statements. fieldfixedlengths itself system will identify automatically. If column have any specific character indication we can do easily. Check it according to your requirement.

How to make mouse change position on click?

So, I'm trying to make a gun aim at the crosshair, so it follows the mouse all the time. I want it to go up on recoil, so the mouse crosshair goes up and the gun follows up.
I tried something like mouseY - 10; but with no luck, it didn't do anything. Thanks.

you can't control the users mouse. you can 'hide' the users mouse and use a crosshair movieclip to indicate where the mouse is positioned and that movieclip you can control.

Start position follows playback

I am new to waveburner (and logic). I am looking for a way to set waveburner so when the transport is stopped, the cursor (start position) returns to the previous start position. In other words, you can start and stop playback repeatedly and the playback always begins from the same location.
The default behavior is having the start position follow the cursor during playback. I would like to change this...
Is this possible?
I know this is an option in both cubase and protools...
Thanks!

Hi Zak:
You can probably accomplish this by setting up a loop in Waveburner. (Do a search for Looping Playback in the WaveBurner manual). Loops can, according to the manual, be set up as follows:
To define a cycle area
In either time ruler, drag from the desired loop start position to the point where you want
looping to end.
Drag either of the cycle area handles to resize an existing cycle area.
You can also grab the center of the cycle area to move it, without changing the cycle
length.
That said, this used to work for me, but no longer does. I am going to post a message to that effect and find out if anyone has a solution.

Drag and dropping an address from address book to the desktop, the address file does not go where my mouse is positioned.

If I drag and drop an address from address book to the desktop, the address file does not go where my mouse is positioned. It winds up somewhere in the middle of my screen. Any way to have the address file land and stay where my mouse pointer is?

You have to assign the favicon yourself to the desktop shortcut (right-click the shortcut: Properties) after you have dragged the link to the desktop.
You can usually find the favicon in Tools >Page Info > Media and save the icon there.
Otherwise use the main domain of the website and add favicon.ico (e.g. mozilla.com/favicon.ico ) to display the favicon in a tab and save that image to a folder.

Across then Down with Start position

Hello All,
I am trying to print a label in a single page using multi-column (Two Columns) and Across Then Down option of Crystal. The result in my report looks like
1 2
3 4
But I have a parameter set ?startposition which takes input and guides report to print its starting position from that point. Lets say for the above data if i input 2 then data should print like
1
2 3
4
similarly if the ?startpositin value is 3 then output should be
(first Line is empty)
1 2
3 4
Please let me know if anybody can help on this.

hi Ravi,
have a look at the attached report. extract the contents and change the .txt extension to .rpt.
this is not a report that was designed as a Label report, but is a multi-column report. see the section expert for the Details section if you're not familiar with multi-column reports. note in the Layout tab the options used.
also note that there are 3 groups in the report to make this happen. each of the group headers are conditionally suppressed based on the parameter. the groups are 'fake groups' and not based on any database fields. this is also important. the fake group formula is whilereadingrecords; ''
i hope this helps,
jamie

Logitech mouse started to lag after connecting Apple Wireless Keyboard

Hi,
I'm using Logitech Anywhere MX mouse with Logitech unifiying reciever on my iMac and everything was working perfectly fine until I have
recently bought an Apple Wireless Keyboard. For some reason after connecting the keyboard to my iMac my mouse started to lag.
I'm not sure how this is connected to each other as keyboard is bluetooth and mouse is wifi but at this stage I wish that my cable keyboard
would never broke.
My whole Mac OS X software is up to date and so are the Logitech drivers (Control Center). Is any of the users expriencing such issues ?
Any advices ?
Regards,
Jakub

Thank you for your reply, I have repaired the device but it didn't helped, but switching USB ports seems to do the work, although not sure why Anyways - thank you very much!

Reset song start and stop times

Resetting start and stop times for all songs.
Hi. I recently trialled a DJ BPM matching software product and unknown to me, it scanned all my songs and in the majority of cases, put new start and stop times (in seconds) so now when I play my songs in iTunes, they either start to play early and/or stop playing before they are complete.
I can go and reset these parameters manually but I have 5000 songs so wondered if there was a utility or a file I could edit that would do this for me as its really annoying that the DJ software didnt reset these when I uninstalled it at the end of the trial period.
Thanks
Jason

You might be able to use this script to reset the start/stop times to zero. Try with a small selection and see if it works for you.
