Set location of print and export dialog boxes?

Is there any way to set the location of the print and export dialog boxes in the viewer?
To say, have the dialog box show up in the top left corner instead of in the middle of the document?

There's no easy way to customize that for the viewer.
Some people make the toolbar invisible and write their own controls.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Setting a default location of the 'Save As' dialog box

I know this is an unusual question, but I do a lot of file-naming at work with Adobe Standard and it would help me if I could set a default location of the 'Save As' dialog box -- say, by dragging it to the corner of the screen so that the next time Adobe opens, the 'Save As' box will open in that location (rather than in the center by default).
By this, I don't mean setting a location for one session, which it does automatically, but rather setting an initial location for when Acrobat starts up.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Scott

Indd CS4 save/export Dialog Boxes are so small :(

I have a 24" iMac and now have installed Indesign CS4. The save/place/export dialog boxes are so small. I have dragged them larger and that is great.
But it does not stay that way across the program or even the same document...
I don't know if I did something different on CS3 but once I set it, it seemed to always remember the setting even on new documents.

I can't help but I can confirm I'm getting the same problems in the CS4 apps, not just InDesign (with Leopard 10.5.5). I hope a fix for this comes out eventually. As Mike says, it happens with Save, Save As, Print To Postscript etc so I encounter it at least a hundred times a day. Very frustrating.

How to modify the "To Print" Steps in the Print the Report Dialog box

From the Crystal Reports Viewer Toolbar, when selecting the Print option,
a 'Print the Report' Dialog box opens. Is it possible to modify the 'To Print' steps?
We tried modifying (commenting-out the To Print steps) in strings_en.js and export.js, but
when running, the changes do not show up.
We are using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2008, Crystal Reports Viewer Version=10.5.3700.0
Thank you.

A warning 1st. Modifying the export.js file is not supported and may lead to all kinds of issues. Also, as soon as somebody else installs an app on that machine, the js files will get overwritten and thus removing your changes.
Second, I do not think the print dialog is defined in a JS file. In CR 10 I think we built our own print dialog and there is no control over it (e.g.; no exposed APIs).
I think your best bet will be to create a printer dialog as per your requirements and launch it from your our own print button.

Having a little trouble with the "export" dialog box

Hi all,
When I get to the export dialog box, I'm not able to type directly in the "Custom Name" space. I have to click around and fiddle with some of the drop-down menus (and then get back to the "name format" that I like) and only then can I triple-click or backspace on the former name and input a new name in the "Custom Name" blank.
Also, the "Export Versions" tab is highlighted, but hitting the "return" key doesn't make the export happen. I have to mouse up to that button and click it that way.
Is anyone else having any trouble with inputting information on the export page? And ideas?
Thanks as always.

Yes, the name format is Custom Name with Index. But when I click in the field, I can't edit it.
Mark,
For me, this preset is working well. Have you checked, if the preset for "Custom Name with Index" correct? You can verify it, by setting the "File Naming" format to "Edit". The preset should look like this:
I'd try to edit the preset, save it, and edit it back, to create a new preset file.
If that does not help, remove the user Aperture User Preferences, as described in this document: Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics
And as I said, hitting "return" doesn't start the export.
That also your "Export" button is not responding to return, even if it is highlighted in blue, is a sign, that your preferences file might have a problem.

Open and Save dialog boxes are sorted reverse alpahbetically by default

I have a user that experiences the same frustrating experience every time she restarts Apple Mail. All of her open and save dialog boxes in Mail are sorted from Z to A. She can click the name field to change the sort, but it will return to Z-A if she quits and reopens the program. The Finder is set (and stays) at A-Z. Other applications do not exhibit this problem. I am loathe to reset the preferences since that means having to set up accounts again. Restarting the computer and removing user caches made no difference. Any suggestions? This is an iMac Mid 2008 running Mac OS X 10.6.8.

I solved my own question through trial and error.
Just select "None" on the dropdown selector (see screen capture, above) and the Open/Save dialog will revert to the older version.

How to hide the Print and Export button in analytics report or tasks pane

Hi Experts,
In BIEE 11g,
How to hide the Print and Export button in analytics report or tasks pane ?
For example:
In console,I have created one userA which is belong to BIConsumer GROUP , when I make use of the highest user 'weblogic' to create one simple report, then the userA will login the analytivs to view this report (not dashboard), it will show the print and export as below.So customers do not want to give him the privilege for printing and exporting.
In addtion, go to catalog->tasks(left corner), it will also show the print and export button. So how to hide or not access these button?
Note: Maybe it can use the policy for consumer role for implementing this requirement, but I do not know how to modify the policy. Are you facing the problem? Thanks.

Hi,
1. Create seperate folder for Reports & Dashobard.
2. For BI_Consumer (userA) set the catalog permission to view Dashboard Folder only and remove permission on the Report Folder (you can give traverse permission but don't give Open permision).
3. By this user won't be able to open or run any reports in that folder and the only way he can see the reports is through Dashboard and on dashboard the export and print buttone can be removed very easily.
Mark helpful if it helps.
Regards,
Kashi

Printer Pop-up Dialog box

Hi
I encounter the printer Pop-up Dialog Box appear upon a
PrintJob is sent.
Is there a way to ignore or escape this pop up box?
Regards

We have currently upgraded 3 instances and it is happening in all 3 on all PC's. Appears that Oracle has it's own pop-up printer window it uses when printing from the PC instead of using the standard one. I imagine it is slow because of it being java. I'd open an SR but they will just say to update to today's version of java. We can't test in other browsers since IE8 is our standard company wide. I haven't got any hits searching MOS or Google on this so was just wondering if others are seeing the same thing. BTW - Our 11i instances work fine and load quick even on the first print but then 11i is using the PC's standard print pop-up window and not a java based one from the applications.
FYI - Fuound Bug 9202075 which seems to be the same issue except that we are on java 1.6.07. I have opened an SR.

Any way to see ICONS in Open and Close Dialog boxes?

Is there any way to see ICONS in Open and Close Dialog boxes, instead of just lists of items names?
I know you can preview one at a time, but I'd love to see all my artwork as picture icons, just as you can in a finder window.
Windows does this, but not OSX that I know of. Is there a third party app that enables you to see icon view in the Open and Close Dialogs?

Thank you Steve Jobs. I guess that feature has been added in Leopard. Now there really is nothing that I'll miss from Windoze.

CS5 slow to get the 'open' and 'save' dialog box over networked computer.

I have been having this problem since the suite was installed, but recently has gotten much slower. Any time I click open or save it takes 8-10 seconds just for the dialog box to come up. CS1 was lightening fast - I know that was ages ago, but I can't help compare the two. I have the same problem with InDesign and Illustrator. The suite is running on a Windows 7 machine through a home network, accessing files from an XP machine as well as a Buffalo Linkstation. Once the dialog box comes up, and I double click, the file is pretty quick to appear. I have researched online and I believe the problem to be somewhere in the network or the settings. The network is quick, Windows Explorer has no delay in opening or finding files, nor do other programs outside of Creative Suite. I did an experiment to narrow down the problem - I closed Photoshop, unplugged the network cable, and reopened the program. AMAZING - it was SO FAST to open the dialog box for both opening and saving files! I then closed Photoshop again, plugged the network cable back in, and opened Photoshop. It was back to the slow opening of the dialog box. Everything else in the programs runs fine - no delay when performing operations in any of the Creative Suite - it has to do with the network and how CS is looking for the files. Can anyone help me, I am so frustrated - this is adding unnecessary time to everything I do and I dread opening and saving any files!!

Once again - thank you!
We used to have a network storage device attached to our home network, but it crashed and we replaced it with another model. A while back I had added it as an item to display in the places bar. When we removed it from the network, the link on the left side disapeared, so I forgot all about it. When I read your posting it jogged my memory. I searched the subject to remember how I had made the change and found this posting from Adobe Community: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/795196 (its in #6). I found the original storage device in the places bar, removed it and replaced it with the new device. I opened Photoshop and Acrobat and both open and save dialog boxes appear as they should - the problem has been resolved! THANK YOU!

Open and Save Dialog Box Font Size

Greetings. Does anyone know how to change the font and icon sizes in Open and Save Dialog boxes in OSX 10.8? Back in Snow Leopard days, the parameters were stored in the users .GlobalPreferences.plist. But they do not appear to be there - or at least I don't recognize them in OSX 10.8. I recently started using a 27 inch Cinema Display, and the fonts are a bit small for me.
I appreciate any help anyone can offer.

Good question! Do submit feedback to Apple. Maybe if enough of us complain about this fundamental issue, they'll finally listen!

Open and save dialog boxes just show earlier and can't be sorted

Mountail Lion has new open and save dialog boxes that are displayed in groupings by date and other variables.
My Photoshop CS5 shows "Previous 7 days", "Earlier", etc. I can no longer adjust this sorting. Often, just the "Earlier" shows and current files are missing from the box. I used the sorting option but can't sort within the list.
My inDesign files still use the earlier open and save dialog box. Where can I switch between these options?
Photoshop Open:
inDesign Open:

I solved my own question through trial and error.
Just select "None" on the dropdown selector (see screen capture, above) and the Open/Save dialog will revert to the older version.

How can you add your own print and export buttons to the CR viewer toolbar?

I posted a previous question that was asking how to get around the Information Bar in IE7 when you export and print. Unfortunately the CR viewer file download code gets blocked by IE7 because the buttons don't directly download the file. However, I have been able to get a regular button that calls the following code and streams the file to the client and IE7 does not block it.
Sub PrintPDF(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs)
     Dim crReportDocument as ReportDocument
     Dim crExportOptions as ExportOptions
     Dim crDiskFileDestinationOptions as DiskFileDestinationOptions
     Dim Fname as string
     CrReportDocument = New ReportDocument()
     CrReportDocument.Load(Server.MapPath("estactionlist.rpt"))
     Fname = Server.MapPath("./") & Session.SessionID.ToString & ".pdf"
     CrDiskFileDestinationOptions = New DiskFileDestinationOptions()
     CrDiskFileDestinationOptions.DiskFileName = FName
     CrExportOptions = crReportDocument.ExportOptions
     With crExportOptions
          .DestinationOptions = CrDiskFileDestinationOptions
          .ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile
          .ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat
     End With
     CrReportDocument.Export()
     Response.ClearContent()
     Response.ClearHeaders()
                Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=test.pdf")
                Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
                Response.Charset = ""
                Response.WriteFile(Fname)
                Response.Flush()
     Response.Close()
     System.IO.File.Delete(Fname)
End Sub
So here are my questions?
1. Is it possible to add a custom print control/icon to the CR viewer toolbar?
2. If one is not possible, then is it possible to override the CR viewer print and export buttons with your own subroutines like the one above?
I just want my page to look nice and hate to have print and export buttons outside of my CR viewer.
Thanks,
Kevin

It might be possible to replace the buttons in a windows app since you can retrieve the toolbar as a toolbar object in the winform viewer ( ToolStrip toolBar = (ToolStrip) crystalReportViewer1.Controls[3]; ) however with a web app, it's a lot more difficult.
The problem is that that you need to parse the Request string to try and figure out if the print / export button was clicked. The code below makes the print button disappear if you click it, so you should be able to modify it to call your custom printing / exporting code instead (You have to do this check in a postback)
        Dim I As Integer = 0
        If Request.Form.AllKeys.Length > 0 Then
            For I = 0 To Request.Form.AllKeys.Length - 1
                Response.Write(Request.Form.Keys(I).ToString & "<BR>")
                If Request.Form.Keys(I).ToString = "CrystalReportViewer2:_ctl2:_ctl2.x" Then
                    CrystalReportViewer2.HasPrintButton = False
                End If
            Next
       End If

Set location of components and reduce the size

I want to resize JavaFX component and shrink the components which are next to it. Here is the result which I get:
When I click on the angle of this component I can resize it down and right.
http://i.stack.imgur.com/jqoNW.png
The components which are next to it are pushed down and right. Part of them are behind the visible part of the screen.
http://i.stack.imgur.com/rsi0L.png
All components are placed in BorderPane,VBox,HBoxand againBorderPane. I don't want to allow components to move. I want to shrink them and use Scrollpane` when their size is reduced. Can you give me some hits how to solve these two problems?
Ref javafx 2 - Set location of components and reduce the size - Stack Overflow

I did something similar the other day. Based on the resizing of the scene I adjusted the position.
widthProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener<Number>() {
    @Override public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends Number> observableValue, Number oldSceneWidth, Number newSceneWidth) {
        widthChange((Double)oldSceneWidth, (Double)newSceneWidth);
heightProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener<Number>() {
    @Override public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends Number> observableValue, Number oldSceneHeight, Number newSceneHeight) {
        heightChange((Double)oldSceneHeight, (Double)newSceneHeight);
You should be able to do something similar, when you add a change listener to your component and handle the resizing of the other components.
What I don't understand is why you would need a scrollbar, when the components shrink down. I would think it would be the other way round.

Find and Replace dialog box issue

When I am in split mode, I get the Find and Replace dialog
box up "Edit -> Find and Replace..." When I run a "Find and
Replace" clicking the "Find All" the dialog box disapears and I
have the Results checked in the Windows menu. When I go down to the
little green arrow to bring back my dialog box - the Find and
Replace text areas are clear and I have to re-paste the items into
it to do the "Replace All" - this is much more time consuming. Why
does my Find and Replace dialog box disapear and why does it lose
the last "Find All" texts?
