RoboHelp 10 - Missing numbers in the Numbered List within a drop-down hotspot

I have applied a numbered list style to a paragraph which is written in a drop-down hotspot within another drop-down hotspot in RoboHelp 10. But I observed, though the 'numbers' are displayed in the editor, they are missing from the generated output. Please suggest a solution.

This is a known issue. Please file a bug report with Adobe: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&product=38
The only workaround I know of is to use regular lists instead in nested dropdowns.

Display construction type on the structure list within the work order

I have a work order written against an equipment which has a construction type assigned to it. When using the structure list from the components tab of the work order, the construction type does not display under the equipment in the list. If I run the same structure list from transaction IH03, the construction type does display under the equipment. How can I add the construction type to display on the structure list within the work order? We are on release 4.7
Thanks,
Terry Gaskin

Thanks PeteA, we know we can do that, but we are looking to get it consistent with IH03, where the construction type shows without being added to the BOM. The construction type is listed immediately below the equipment in IH03.
Thanks

How can I go BACK to the site I was at, say, 5 site previous or forward without hitting the BACK arrow 5 times? The previous version had a drop down box with a list of previous sites I could click on.

It can take a while to go back by hitting the back arrow again and again. The previous version had a drop down box that listed nine or ten previous URLs. This allowed me to pick out which one I wanted by clicking on that URL. Version 4 doesn't have this feature or, if it does, I cannot find it. Is this capability on Version 4, and if so, how can I find it?

You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.

RoboHelp HTML v7to9 Migrate issue, Screen Tip field in images' properties w/DHTML Drop-down hotspot

Hey all, thanks in advance for any info you can provide. All the RoboHelp references below relate to us using the respective version of RoboHelp HTML, and on my XP SP3 pc.
For various reasons, we tried migrating our data from RoboHelp v7 directly to RoboHelp v9, but noticed this same issue also occurred when we tried to migrate our data from RoboHelp v7 to RoboHelp v8, as this was one of the reasons we did not use RoboHelp v8 as our production "version".
I noticed that RoboHelp v9 (and RoboHelp v8) will not populate the "Screen tip:" area/field of the image's properties window with the existing Screen tip text, even though it is in the html code of the page and when viewing the page within RoboHelp (Ctrl-W) or through a browser like IE6 or IE8, the Screen tip text will display when hovering the mouse over the picture. Only the RoboHelp v7 will properly display the text info in the Screen tip area.
Please note, we have most of our images inserted in a DHTML Drop-down hotspot and use buttons associated with a java script to "Show All Images" (or "Hide All Images") and these examples are the ones that the "Screen Tip:" field in the image's properties did not populate in RoboHelp v9.
Is there any easy way to get the ALT text to appear in the actual "Screen tip:" area/field of the image's properties window in RoboHelp v9, or must they be manually entered? Otherwise, currently it shows up as all blank, as though we neglected to fill it in. Is there an actual fix for this? Thanks in advance for any info you can provide.

Purchase order sample - drop down list populating another drop down list

hello, when i use this sample script, it works fine. but when i add additional arrays to it, it doesn't work at all. please let me know what i need to change in this script in order to add additional items into the drop down lists. here is the script that works (displays 3 options in first drop down list (blank, option, another option)):

How can I configure Robohelp to display search results in DHTML drop-down hotspots?

Hello. We designed our online help using drop-down hotspots (this look is much cleaner to us). Problem is, when a user searches for something and clicks the Search results topic page to find the information, the topic page displays, but does not expand the drop-down hotspot to show the exact location of the searched item. Is there a JavaScript or some other solution to get the DHTML hotspot to expand, showing the information? Thanks.

Step 5: Add the code from the supplied text file to the top whtopic.js.
Do I add the code at the very beginning, before // WebHelp 5.10.005 ?
I'm asking because I followed the steps and it did not work.
FWIW, I am also using the Twisties function in Robohelp (via the drop-down hotspot style file).
Thanks.

When the unlock iphone 5 come out, will the unlock iphone 4 price drop down?

when the unlock iphone 5 come out, will the unlock iphone 4 price drop down?

We can't speak for Apple, but I highly doubt that there will be further price drops to the iPhone 4, not just because of the release of the unlocked iPhone 5, anyway.

Where is the "source list" within iTunes?

I am completely new to iTunes & iPod, and am having serious trouble just trying to figure out the basics. I believe that either something is wrong with my USB port or something may be wrong with the iPod Nano, but cannot say for sure. Ultimately, I need to know what/where is the Source List on iTunes. I have the most recent version of iTunes downloaded & installed.
Thanks,
ImaHousemouse

Prior to iTunes 12 the sources list used to appear above all other playlists in the sidebar. The sidebar could be turned on or off with Ctrl+S. The source list is now a row of icons. Press the ellipsis button (highlighted) then use the checkboxes to show or hide sources. Press the Playlists button when viewing a source to display the playlists sidebar.

How do I use one drop down list to refresh the list in another drop down?

I am using a drop down list full of years (i.e. 2008, 2009..etc). When I make my selection from this drop down list (say for instance I select 2009) I want it to update the available data in the second drop down list. I have the query statement set up within the JSP page but it needs to be a dynamic SQL statement based off the value I selected in the first drop down.
String sql = "SELECT GameId, GameDescription FROM Games WHERE Year = " + year;
The variable "year" is the value I need to figure out how to assign. Now this variable is a Java variable (attribute) and Im unsure how to get the value from the previous drop down and assign it to that. Basically I need the JavaScript value from the first drop down assigned to the Java attribute "year".
Anyone able to help me with this???
Thanks,
Jed

Here are my two drop down lists. As you can see I build the second list dynamically based off the value of the year. I want to be able to assign my year to the value I select in this first drop down. How do I do that?? I only want to show games for the year I select. I currently have the year hardcoded to "2009" as you see below. How can i change that to be assigned to the JavaScript value i extract from the first select box?
<select name="season">
<option value='2009' selected>2009</option>
<option value='2008'>2008</option>
</select>
<select name="gameselect">
<%
try
String year = "2009";
String connectionURL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/ElmwoodExpos";
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(connectionURL, "root", "thejedster");
String sql = "SELECT GameId, GameDescription FROM Games WHERE Year = " + year;
Statement s = con.createStatement();
s.executeQuery(sql);
ResultSet rs = s.getResultSet();
while(rs.next())
%>
<option value="1"><% out.print(rs.getString("GameDescription"));%></option>
<%
catch(Exception e)
%>
</select>

Populating the data from table onto drop-down list.

Hi all
The following code i have used in trigger 'when-new-form-instance'
DECLARE
group_id RecordGroup;
list_id Item := Find_Item('Lines.classification');
status NUMBER;
rg_name varchar2(10) := 'rgroup';
BEGIN
clear_list(list_id);
group_id := Find_Group(rg_name);
IF NOT id_null(group_id) then
Delete_Group(group_id);
End if;
group_id := Create_Group_From_Query(rg_name,
'select meaning from lookup_values where lookup_type='TC_CLASSIFICATION' and lookup_code in('BUSINESS','PERSONAL')');
status := Populate_Group(rg_name);
Populate_List(list_id, group_id);
END;
i have created a Record_Group from Object navigator(name:'rg_name').
and used it in the above code.
after this i try to run the form, i am not able to see the value which i drop-down list
can any one suggest me abt this, and any changes i need to do in the property pallet,...
Thanks

No, Populate_List requires that the record group is created at runtime.Actually you're wrong ;)
POPULATE_LIST works with both, record groups created at runtime AND at design time.
Try the below code on SCOTT schema with a list item and a button trigger:
Record Group created at design time
DECLARE
     RG_NAME VARCHAR2(10) := 'RGROUP';
     V_DUMMY NUMBER;
BEGIN
     CLEAR_LIST('LIST_ITEM1');
     V_DUMMY := POPULATE_GROUP(RG_NAME);
     IF V_DUMMY = 0 THEN
          CLEAR_LIST('LIST_ITEM1');
          POPULATE_LIST('LIST_ITEM1', RG_NAME);
     END IF;
END;
Record group Created at Runtime
DECLARE
     GROUP_ID RECORDGROUP;
     RG_NAME VARCHAR2(10) := 'RGROUP';
     QUERY_TEXT VARCHAR2(1000) := 'SELECT ENAME, TO_CHAR(EMPNO) FROM EMP';
     V_DUMMY NUMBER;
BEGIN
     CLEAR_LIST('LIST_ITEM1');
     GROUP_ID := FIND_GROUP(RG_NAME);
     IF NOT ID_NULL(GROUP_ID) THEN
          DELETE_GROUP(GROUP_ID);
     END IF;
     GROUP_ID := CREATE_GROUP_FROM_QUERY(RG_NAME, QUERY_TEXT);
     CLEAR_LIST('LIST_ITEM1');
     V_DUMMY := POPULATE_GROUP(RG_NAME);
     IF V_DUMMY = 0 THEN
          CLEAR_LIST('LIST_ITEM1');
          POPULATE_LIST('LIST_ITEM1', RG_NAME);
     END IF;
END;It does work with me both ways, I suggest you test it.

What are the XFA properties for a drop-down list?

I am having trouble distinguishing between the "Text" and "Value" for a drop down list.
I have a data drop-down list that is being populated by a database at runtime. I am using the "addItem" event while looping though the recordset. The "addItem" event takes 2 parameters:
param1: A valid string representing the value to display in the field.
param2: (Optional) A valid string representing the new items bound value. If empty, the default value is an empty string.
What is the corresponding XFA properties for param1 and param2?
If I want to reference "param2" somewhere else in the form, is it dropDownList.rawValue? is it dropDownList.value?

reviewed the sample.zip form and xml file. The XML format is different from my file. Your file has one field named "item" with 3 records. <data> - <field> <item>1</item> <item>2</item> <item>3</item> </field> </data> My XML file has multiple fields and records. I need to populate the dropdown list with 1 field from XML file/DataConnection and bind the remainder of the DataConnection fields to the form fields. How can I achieve above with the sample example? This is a portion of my xml file. <?xml version = '1.0'?> <ROWSET> <ROW num="1"> <ORG_OPER_NAME> U. S.

Flash freezes in Firefox when I scroll the mouse wheel over a drop down list or text field (possibly others as well).

Whenever I scroll in a drop down menu in Flash in Firefox (for example, I move the mouse wheel just one detent), it just continues scrolling on its own all the way to the bottom of the list and freezes all interaction for about 10 seconds. It's really bizarre.
If I start click and dragging things, nothing happens, and then all of the sudden everything catches up and moves. As an experienced programmer, I can say that it looks like some kind of queuing of keyboard/mouse events with delayed execution. Has anyone else encountered this issue?
I found something from 2008 that sounds similar, although I am not using the sIFR they mentioned: sIFR mouse wheel scrolling freeze in Firefox - Stack Overflow
Seems to be a Firefox-specific issue, although it also seems to be something that has just recently started occurring since updating Firefox.
UPDATE: I was checking my Firefox version in Help > About Firefox, and it showed version 33, but also had a pending update so I restarted Firefox. The problem was no longer occurring at that point. When I checked the version again, it said 33.0.2, but it also said "applying update", with another pending restart. I restarted Firefox again. It's now stable at version 33.1. So perhaps it was a problem with that particular version, or even a temporary issue with that running browser instance.

Can we display only the required dimensions under Dimensions Drop Down list

Hi,
I am using Hyperion Financial Data Quality Management, Fusion Edition 11.1.1.3.00, so far under Activities -> Maps option we used to display all the dimensions used in the application, but now as per the client's requirement we need to display only those dimensions which needs mapping under dimensions drop down list.
Eg)
Now in our Application our Dimension Drop Down list will look show these dimensions
Account
Entity
Legal Entity
Inter company
Reverse 1
Reverse 2
Among these we are doing mapping only for Account, Entity dimensions so we need to hide rest of the dimensions from the Dimensions Drop Down list for which we are not using any mappings (Legal Entity, Inter company,Reverse 1,Reverse 2)
Another thing is these dimensions should be hidden only from the drop down list and not from the Output file generated after the Export.
Some suggestions regarding this issue will be greatly helpful.
Thanks,
Abdulla Javeed Hassan

Hi
If hiding the other dimensions is to prevent users from accessing and changing the mappings then you could do this by amending the object security so that only certain user roles can access the Activities > Maps option.
This will only really work if you have limited users / central team that will control the maps but it is the most obvious way to stop users accessing the maps.
Hope this helps

Where is the page forward/page back drop down arrow? Went missing in 4.0

Prior to upgrading to 4.0 there was an arrow to the right of the page forward/back icon that opened a drop down of the last 20 or so pages. It is no longer there. I have tried "restore default set" with no luck.

You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.

Can you run SQL in the portal and create a drop down list??

Can anyone tell me if its possible to create a drop down list using sql in the portal?
Can I create a drop down list of items via sql and then have those same values be used for a discoverer portlet? I am trying to replicate the same concept using parameter values and discoverer worksheets, but through sql. I dont want to have to cut and past lists on the parameter fields. I want to be able to run sql when I post a discoverer worksheet with a parameter and have the values from the sql pass into the worksheet.
Is that possible???

I created a lov but i cannot post it on my portlet. When i go to post a portlet, under the db_link, portlet reposistory it does not show.? Also, how do make the connection to the discoverer worsheets to this lov?
thanks,
