Show/hide layers for repeated recordset data

Is there any product out there to assist with the creation of
show/hide layers for repeated recordset data?

You can't build that functionality in with InDesign — but you can with Acrobat Pro. You've got to use the form builder functions to create a button that will show or hide another element.

  • Can someone please help? Show/Hide layers

    Hi there,
    I am making a site for a friend and am having some weirdness
    that I can't figure out. I have a series of layers that show/hide
    based on various selections. Nothing complicated by any means. I am
    using the Dreamweaver Show-hide layers functionality. I am sure I
    have used it before in exactly the same way and not had this
    problem.
    So here is what it is. The page loads and most of the layers
    are set to hidden and then they get toggled on/off based on various
    selections. For some reason when the page loads in IE, all of the
    layers are visible. In Firefox they are hidden as intended.
    If someone has come across this before, or could take a
    moment to look at the site, I would be very grateful. I have stared
    at this and tweaked it so much that I am at a loss and I know that
    my friend is really needing her site to just be up and running.
    Also, now that I think of it, (and this is more of a nuisance
    than a problem) I am using the snap layers extension to position my
    layers. When you look at my site you will see that the layers look
    crazy when the page loads and then eventually move into place. Is
    there a way to make it so the layers are just already in place? Or
    even if they could not become visible until after they have
    snapped?
    Thanks in advance. I really do appreciate any help you could
    provide.

    I agree with the honest answer. This is a very poor way to
    make a page.
    Nevertheless, in DW's design view, use the A/P Element panel,
    and make sure
    that the eyeball icon is CLOSED for each layer that you want
    to be hidden
    when the page loads. Then save and upload the page.

  • Show/Hide layers?

    I am creating a multimedia book.  I want to have a button on the page that when clicked will bring up a flash movie in the center of the page and then a button to click that will make it go away.
    I have done this quite easily in dreamweaver for websites by a show/hide layers button but do not see how to do it in indesign.
    Thanks for any help...

  • DW: Show-Hide Layers

    Hey, I’m having two issues with the Show-Hide Layers
    behaviour in Dreamweaver and was wondering if someone else has had
    the same problems and has a solution.
    My test page is
    http://www.petermcphee.com/dreamweaver/popup-layer.html
    1) What I would like is to show the layer when the link is
    hovered over, which works fine. However, I also want the layer to
    remain visible while the mouse is over the layer and disappear when
    the mouse leaves the layer.
    I Googled for a while and found some tutorials that deal with
    showing/hiding layers but they hide the layers once the mouse
    leaves the original link, not the layer.
    2) Also, the site that I want to apply this behaviour to has
    an auto centering wrapper box, so I would like the layer to popup
    right underneath the link every time without converting the entire
    site to absolute positioning. As it is now, the popup appears at
    different locations depending how wide my browser is.
    Is this even possible with the current DW functionality?
    Thanks a lot!
    Peter.

    When you show the layer, also show an underlying layer that
    contains a
    transparent GIF image that is about 10px wider/taller than
    the layer you
    show. Apply a hide layer behavior to the GIF image that hides
    both the
    layer you just showed, and the underlying layer. Remove the
    mouseout hide
    event from the original trigger. Does that make sense?

    Change this -
    </head>
    to this -
    <style type="text/css">
    <!--
    body { text-align:center; }
    #wrapper { text-align:left; width:760px; margin:0
    auto;position:relative; }
    /* 760px will display on an 800px screen maximized browser
    window without */
    /* horizontal scrollbars. */
    -->
    </style>
    </head>
    change this -
    <body ...>
    to this -
    <body ...>
    <div id="wrapper">
    and this -
    </body>
    to this -
    <!-- /wrapper -->
    </div>
    </body>
    and see if that helps.

  • Show Hide Layers - Can't do "onmouseout"

    I'm trying to do a show/hide layers on an image map hot spot.
    I select the <area> tag from the hotspot, and can set the
    show layer "onmouseover" but it won't let me set the hide layer for
    "onmouseout". In fact when I try to set the "onmouseout", dw justs
    makes another "onmouseover" behavior just like the one I already
    have. ??? Thanks for any help.

    Can you go to the behaviors panel and edit the second
    "onmouseover" to
    change it to an "onmouseout" ?

  • Show/hide layers no mouseover option

    I have MX (2004) and am trying to create a simple show/hide
    layer behavior on some thumbnails/main images and it is just not
    working for me. The behavior has the show/hide option, but it does
    not show the arrows active to choose the mouseover and other
    events. I have the 'show 4.0 browsers and later' box
    checked...anyone know what else it could be? Is there a simple code

    Do you actually have any layers on the page. You need to put
    a layer on
    the page first and then apply the show-hide layer behaviour.

  • Opera Show/Hide Layers (k)

    We have a fairly complex navigation using layers to show
    dropdowns. It

  • Disjointed Rollovers with show / hide layers

    Creating a series of thumnails on a page which, when clicked
    on, will bring up full size image in one spot and relevant text in
    another. I'm using Show / Hide Layers to do this. I've got it all
    working fine except stumbling on one thing. Probably obvious.
    The question I have is how to make the currently showing
    layers go away when the user clicks on another thumbnail. If I was
    using onMouseover and onMouseout then that would be simple. But I
    can't figure out how to automatically make the layers currently
    showing go back to being hidden when another thumbnail is clicked.
    What I get instead is the new layers appearing on top of the old
    ones and making a mess.
    Probably an obvious solution, but my brain is not getting it
    at the moment. Suggestions?
    Thanks...
    -Jesse

    Don't use the show/hide at all. Use SetText of Layer to write
    the required
    content into a single layer.
    Or - if you don't quite get that, just use PVII's AutoLayer
    extension which
    will show one and hide all the rest automatically.

  • Making links that show/hide layers?

    Hi all,
    I created an InDesign cs4 file which is pretty much a guide for users of my liveCicle form. I have a bunch of layers in the file.
    I'm trying to make links associated with images that are in its own layers. So when i export the file to pdf and hit certain link, layer associated with that link shows up. I tryed to do this in acrobat 9 pro. I created links, but the problem is that links in non visible layers work behind the scene when i hover over.
    Is there a way to set layer visability in inDesign CS4?
    Thanks in advance

    No you can´t toggle layer visibility with buttons made in indesign. You have to finish it in Acrobat....
    Only way to make something appear or disappear in ID is to use show/hide buttons action...
    You can convert those images you want to show&hide to buttons. Then you can create another buttons to show or hide them.
    If you export as PDF, default state of a button can be hidden...

  • How to show a report for 'Previous Month' Data

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a requirement, where i have to default my report to show previous month data.
    Scenario:
    My prompts by Default are set to CURRENT (current year,quarter,month). once the user logs in, the report should display data for month 'Nov' instead of 'Dec'.
    I tried using TIMESTAMPADD() in the formula , but it didn't work, though i don't see any error. Not sure if i 'm missing something.
    Is there a way to achieve this.I 'm using OBIEE 11.1.1.6.
    Any help is highly Appreciated ! Please.
    Thanks,
    Ramya

    From what you wrote I am assuming the user can manually save the report results to the Excel file.
    If your report uses ALV Grid it is possible to export the data to a spreadsheet (one of the functions available in the ALV tool bar).
    If you have used WRITE statements it is also possible to save the output as a spreadsheet (menu System -> List -> Save), but the latter will not produce as nice a spreadsheet if the data don't form a matrix. In other words, some work may be necessary in the spreadsheet afterwards before it has the format your user wants.

  • Dynamically show/hide columns for DelimitedData output

    My users want to see only dynamic sets of data from the same report query.
    For example, if the query returns:
    Date, Widget1Count, Widget2Count, ..., WidgetZCount
    User1 wants to see Date and counts for widgets 1,2, 5, and 10
    User2 wants to see Date and counts for widgets 2, 3, 4, 5, 10-20.
    Uset3 wants to see Date and widget 99 count.
    I don't want to write a custom report for every single user nor do I want to create Z! number of queries to satisfy every possible request combination.
    I wonder, is there a way to change "Exclude from XML Output" property for a particular query field(s) from a report AfterPForm or BeforeReport trigger?

    Hi,
    I had the same problem, but I saw the Metalink document: 340793.1, which gave the solution I needed.
    In my case, I needed to limit the number of columns being outputted in a DELIMITEDDATA format based on a user parameter.
    I ended up with the following code in my After PForm trigger, which did the job.
    BEGIN
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('<report DTDVersion="1.0">');
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('<customize>');
    -- For those columns I want displayed, Set the XMLSuppress property to False
    FOR tmp IN 1 .. 10 LOOP
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('<object name="col_'||LPAD(TO_CHAR(tmp), 3, '0')||'_title" type="REP_COL_MAP">');
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('<properties>');
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('<property name="XMLSuppress">False</property>');
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('</properties>');
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('</object>');
    END LOOP;
    -- For those column I don't want displayed, Set the XMLSuppress property to True
    FOR tmp in 11 .. 100 LOOP
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('<object name="col_'||LPAD(TO_CHAR(tmp), 3, '0')||'_title" type="REP_COL_MAP">');
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('<properties>');
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('<property name="XMLSuppress">True</property>');
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('</properties>');
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('</object>');
    END LOOP;
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('</customize>');
    SRW.ADD_DEFINITION('</report>');
    SRW.APPLY_DEFINITION;
    END;
    I hope this helps with your problem.

  • How do I show hide layers in dreamweaver CS6?

    I'd like to use this instead of image swap, becuase I have images of different aspect ratios.

    how do I stack images ontop of each other in the same place.
    With CSS absolute positioning.  Also be sure to apply position:relative to your parent container or #wrapper div.
    #wrapper {
    width: 90%;
    position:relative;
    #Layer1,
    #Layer2,
    #Layer3,

  • Need help with show/hide and layers moving

    I'm more of a designer, so I don't know code or CSS well at
    all. I'm doing an online portfolio for a class and need help with
    layers not staying in place in different browsers. The portfolio is
    created with a table, but I wanted to use the show/hide function
    for thumbnails of work. Are layers the only way you can use this
    function? I read layers don't work well with tables, so how else
    can I make it so when you mouse over a thumbnail, the larger image
    appears in another cell?

    > I don't know code or CSS well at all.
    That's unfortunate.
    > layers not staying in place in different browsers.
    Layers don't move. But the rest of your page does.
    Before you get too wrapped up in layers, though, please read
    this -
    http://www.great-web-sights.com/g_layerlaws.asp
    They are not good when be used as a primary layout method.
    > I read layers don't work well with tables
    They work fine with tables - but you have to understand both
    tables and
