Scrolling down a pdf with the down arrow key ...

Hello,
I have a 20 page newsletter pdf with about 12 articles. At the top of the first page there's our text logo, and just below it is a table of contents compiled using table of contents styles (btw this pdf was compiled in Indesign 5.5) and just below that is the first article, then below that, the second.. and so on. At the bottom of each page there's a "return to the table of contents" button that shoots the reader back up to the TOC on the first page when clicked, in addition to a page number. There is also a header with the name of the publication and issue number..
the problem I'm having is, when scrolling through the first article on the first page with the down arrow key, once I get to the bottom of the first page, the cursor then shoots back up to the table of contents. WHat I would like it to do is just scroll down to the next page. Once I get to the bottom of the first page the second time, the cursor jumps down to the bottom of the second page, straight to the page number, a few more taps of the down arrow key takes the cursor up to the header on page 2
I'd like the down arrow scrolling to just go through the articles and skip the page numbers and other header/footer items. Any thoughts? Should I take my question to the InDesign forums? Thanks in advanced

That behavior is controlled when Scrolling is selected from the Page Display Toolbar.
You might want it defined in the Document Properties > Initial View, but I am not certain if it is a choice. Experiment with the options.
I am not familair with Javascript in pdf, but that might set the control.

    Why am I recently unable to use my mouse to scroll email topics or content?  I can only use the up and down arrows keys to scroll. I am able to use my mouse to scroll through internet searches.  It only seems to have affected my email messages.

    Try a restart.
    Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • Gmail scroll down arrow is covered by Firefox 4 window resize icon

    I updated Firefox to version 4 and now the scroll down arrow for the main mailbox of Gmail is covered up by the window resizing triangle icon for Firefox at the bottom right on the window.
    The scroll down arrow is effectively made unavailable.
    This appears to be the only site that causes this problem.

    You can add the bottom back back to your screen, which will move the resize corner below the scroll arrows. Just go to the '''View menu''' > '''Toolbars''' and enable the '''Add-on bar'''.

  • Creating new row in a matrix by pressing the down arrow key

    Hi all
    i wish to cause a matrix to add rows when pressing on the down arrow key. can you provide me with the lines of code which achieve this requirement?
    appreicate the help
    Yoav

    Hi Yechiel,
    I think you can capture the moment of the pressing the down arrow key. in that moment, you can utilize this code to add the line. I used DBDataSource. it's most easy and simple way to handle matrix, I think. I can't remember the character code of down arrow. But I think, you can find it easily.
    oForm.DataSources.DBDataSources.Item("@DBS_CBP2").InsertRecord(position)
                        oForm.DataSources.DBDataSources.Item("@DBS_CBP2").Offset = oForm.DataSources.DBDataSources.Item("@DBS_CBP2").Offset + 1
    oMatrix.AddRow()

  • Is it possiable to navigate row by row using the down arrow key?

    Hi,
    The table is an ADF page table, and I want to nevigate to the next row by pressing the down arrow key. Is that possiable?
    Thanks
    Stephen

    Let me explain things better. First of all you have to create
    a javascript file , e.g: moveRow.js with the following code:
    i = 0;
    function moveRow()
    if (window.event.keyCode== 25) // 25 is down arrow
    i++;
    // FormID : TableID: tableSelectOneID
    document.getElementById('form1:table1:' i ':tableSelectOne1').checked=true;
    if (window.event.keyCode== 24) // 24 is up arrow
    i--;
    document.getElementById('form1:table1:' i ':tableSelectOne1').checked=true;
    Then in the jspx head, put something like this:
    <afh:head title="testTable" binding="#{backing_testTable.head1}"
    id="head1">
    <script type="text/javascript" src="moveRow.js">
    </script>
    </afh:head>
    // Call to the function when key is pressed:
    <af:tableSelectOne binding="#{backing_testTable.tableSelectOne1}"
    id="tableSelectOne1" onkeypress="moveRow();"/>

  • How change the sort order of searched items so last search item shows first. I DO NOT mean the order of search engines, but existing searches by down arrow key

    I want to be able to change the sort order of items I have already searched for in the search box. I want to be able to hit the down arrow key and see my previous searches in the order of last search showing first. At the moment I have no idea how it is sorting and it's very annoying to have to re-type a query I typed 5 minutes earlier but because I typed in another 10 since it is lost somewhere in the list. Can this be done, I have googled but did not find the topic anywhere. Just to clarify, I DO NOT MEAN the order of search engines (which is all that comes up in google), I mean the actual text typed in which has been saved in the drop down list.
    Thanks

    The "form fill" feature uses a "frecency" algorithm, frequency + recency, similar to the address bar autocomplete list.
    I found an extension that seems relevant, but the reviews are old so I'm not sure it's still working: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/searchbar-autocomplete-order/ Searchbar Autocomplete Order].
    But... is the autocomplete not working? I would expect that typing a couple characters of the earlier query would filter the list so you can easily select it? Or is the problem that the list doesn't remember enough searches for that?

  • Disabling the 'down arrow' key that takes me to the 2nd record. ?

    pressing the 'down arrow' key takes me to the 2nd record.
    well how do i disallow this...
    this is very funy and stupid also.

    I've also encountered the similar issue like this now in SQL*Form 3.0. If we have a 'down' trigger inside which we put 'null', it should not allow us to go to the next new record (at least I had ever experienced something like this in 6i forms).
    But now it will still go to the next new empty record even if I've already disabled that by including that trigger inside. Can anyone advise on this?

  • Up and Down Arrow Keys Not Working

    I have had the HP Pavilion g6t-1b00 CTO Notebook PC for a year or two now. I've been having a couple of problems with internet connectivity and putting my computer on "sleep".
    However, few days ago, my keyboard randomly started acting weirdly. When I would try to type certain letter/numbers, they would come out differently. 
    Ex. pressing the space bar would show up " ./M" instead
    I tried restarting my computer many times and installed a BiOS update which fixed all of my issues except for my up and down arrow keys. As of now, they have no function; I can't scroll with them and they don't seem to be taking on the role of another key. I have tried using the keys on different programs. Using the touch pad to scroll works but I still can't use the up and down keys.
    Is there anyway to get the up and down arrow keys to work again?
    This question was solved.

    Hello Larasoft,
    I understand you’re up and down arrow keys are not functioning, is that accurate? I will do all I can to help you with this issue.
    I want you to access the setup menu to test the keys out, see instructions below.
    1.       Shut down the computer.
    2.       Locate the F10 key across the top.
    3.       When you turn the computer back on immediately start tapping the F10 key repeatedly.
    4.       If successful you should be on setup utility screen. What’s different about this is you can only use you arrow keys to navigate.  
    5.       Try working the arrow keys  up and down on different menus and see if they work.
    6.       Once you tested it press F9 to setup defaults and then press F10 to save and exit.

  • Up and Down Arrow Keys Not Functioning in CS2 for Windows

    A little over 6 months ago I purchased Adobe Photoshop CS2 for Windows XP and installed it on my work PC and my home PC. Everything works fine and dandy on my work PC, however when I try to do some editting on my home PC there are some quirks that I can't figure out. The main thing is that my Up/Down Arrow Keys do absolutely nothing. Whether I am trying to edit text and scroll through my fonts or if I'm trying to nudge a part of a picture, the Arrow keys do nothing.
    Does anybody have any suggestions for me?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    >but that's beside the point.
    it's not. what you describe is typical behavior of a high quality cracked version that's been floating around. a great copy with shrink wrap, nice manuals, etc. but you've been burned. usually the discs are stamped "made in singapore".

  • How to implement JSF text input down-arrow key = next record navigation?

    Hi All,
    I've got a small query which you experts might be able to help me through. I would not be surprised if such questions would already have been raised in this forum.
    Formerly, I've created an Oracle Form that allow user to quickly insert data in bulk. It only has three 3 fields - first name, second name and address. Because of the flexibility of the Oracle Form, by pressing the down arrow key, user is able to create record when the last record is detected. And vice versa by hitting the up arrow key, it will move to the previous record when the current record is not the first record. So basically, the form is very 'key-driven' and without the use of the mouse, a lot of data can be inserted very quickly and efficiently.
    I've successfully converted such form to an ADF BC JSF page using the JHeadstart toolkit. But when I showed it to my users for comment, they were really disappointed with the number of mouse interactions they need to click every time to navigate between records as well as creating new records. My question is can I build some sort of ADF JSF event handler on any of the text items to perform the following tasks:
    1.) When 'down arrow key' is pressed AND not the last record THEN
    Go to the next record.
    2.) When 'down arrow key' is pressed AND is the last record THEN
    Go to the next blank record.
    3.) When 'up arrow key' is pressed AND not the first record THEN
    Go to the previous record.
    4.) When 'up arrow key' is pressed AND is the first record THEN
    Do nothing.
    If all the four above tasks are achievable in ADF JSF, can you please guide and brief me on the steps to implement them. Or these functionalities are already available somewhere in other open source toolkits. Your help is much appreciated. Thank you and have a nice day.
    Kind Regards,
    John

    Hi Steven,
    I've tried to incoporated attached link's codes with the JHeadstart generated code inside the jspx but I still cannot get it to work. There is a lot of Javascript error and is impossible to debug.

  • Down Arrow Key Problem

    Ok, so i was just messing around on my computer like always.  I held down the up arrow key to scroll up to a page, and when doing so the bottom arrow key came off.  This is where the fun begins .... I have tried numerous attempts to put the arrow key back on, but like most computers, it doesn't just "snap" back on as some people suggested.  And, if you haven't noticed, you can't go to google and type in "How to fix my down arrow key", so naturally i came here hoping to find some answers. 
    My computer is an HP dv7t Core i3-380 2.53 GHz Integrated Webcam and Fingerpring Reader.  Any and all assistance would be appreciated.  Pictures, tutorials, information ANYTHING to get this key back on.  Even suggestion will do; I can still use the key, but even that is messing up on me now.  What should i do?? Online help, take it to someone, or what?

    Does the problem happen if you reboot the system into Safe Mode by holding the Shift key at startup?
    Additionally, does the problem happen if you create a new user account in the Users & Groups system preferences and log into that?

  • Down arrow key unreliable in iPhoto 11

    Hi there,
    I've just noticed that sometimes, when I'm in an event looking at photos in thumbnail view, my down arrow stop working. The up, right and left arrows work just fine, but the down one simply stops responding.
    In certain events, I can move down the grid from top to bottom, but in others I can only do it for a few rows and then it stops responding. In fact, I can only go down to the 5th or 6th row. I thought that applied to every event that has more than 5 or 6 rows, but it doesn't. It randomly stops and then randomly start working again.
    It's definitely not a mechanical problem, since the key works fine in iTunes, the Finder or anything else I've tried.
    Does anyone else have the same problem?

    Try this:  launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists.  If the problem persists in the test library then a reinstall of iPhoto seems indicated. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/  folder,
    Click to view full size
    Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally.
    If the problem is not repeated in the test library then your current library may be corrupted.  In that case make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Oracle 10g and JAWS -- use of Up and Down Arrow keys

    We are in the process of converting an Oracle 6i application to 10g and applying Accessibility standards to our application so that it will work with the JAWS screen reader.
    The version of JAWS we are using is 7.10.452 Unicode, The Java Access Bridge version required is version 1.2.
    THis problem manifests itself when using the UP and Down arrow keys to move between rows in a mutli-record screen.
    The problem is that on using either the Up or Down key JAWS read the content of the current field before moving to the new record and announcing the prompt and content.
    Has any one got any solution to this.
