Show/hide pointer issue

Show pointer option is not working as it used to be with last 2 versions of photoshop touch for iphone on iphone 6.
While making a selection with lasso tool with "show pointer on" I can not carry on selection step by step, it works a few steps properly then I had to wait for a while so that it can go further step.

I apologize for the confusion. Let me try to start over, following the instructions you are asking to provide. The computer that has Photoshop installed is from school, so I will try the best I can giving you detailed specs. For what I know, It is a PC running Windows 7 64bit, but I do not know the amount of RAM as I do not have permission to access the control panel or any of its system settings. The version of Photoshop is CS6 13.0 Extended, and its performance preferences re the following...
Available Ram: 34827MB
IdealRange: 1884-2467MB
Allow Photoshop to use: 2056MB
HardDrive: 835GB
as for the error, there is no error. I might of not been specific, but I am not stupid not to include the type of error if there was any...
Other things like the grand total ram, video card, and video ram are all accessible by the administrator only.
the file I am working on, is an imported 3ds Max file. I was trying to use Photoshop's 3D painting tool, and from what I understand, it is possible to hide polygons by selecting an area you would like to keep, and what is not selected gets hidden. This is supposed to be good for painting areas that are behind parts of the mesh that is in the way. From the instruction, you are suppose to select the area that you want to keep, and then choose 3d->Show/Hide Polygons->Within Selection. This part I was able to do. Once I was happy with what I needed to paint, I then selected 3d->Show/Hide Polygons-> invert. This allowed me to continue painting other hard areas of the mesh by revealing what was hidden and hides what is visible. Then, when I was ready to reveal the entire mesh back, I was thinking that I should be able to do this by clicking on 3d->Show/Hide Polygon->Reveal All. However, this only reverts the visibility back the other way around as if I clicked on revert.
So what I was wondering is if this is how the 3d reveal all tool works or is this a bug?
I hope this clear things up, if not, please let me know.

Photoshop CS6 Show/Hide Polygons issue

Hi. I am doing an assignment for class, using Photoshop CS6, and I am having problems with the show/hide polygons feature. After hiding the polygons of the unselected area, I am able to reveal the entire object by choosing "Reveal All". However, if I ever need to invert the other polygons, by choosing 'Invert Visible", and then want to reveal the entire object again, all it does is inverts it back the other way around. Is this a bug, or is this how it works?

Issue with page processing - confirmation message & show /hide a button..

Hello,
I am working on a to do list application.
I have events and for each event, I show list of tasks (grouped in reports based on the calculated task's status).
In one region I have a drop down list of events and a Select Event button.
For each task, I had to create a CLOSE option (initially I used a link, but the requester wanted a confirmation before closing the task).
Now I have a checkbox for each task (generated dynamically with apex_item.checkbox(1,task_id)).
Closing a task in my application means to set the end_date to sysdate.
I followed the instructions from
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31036_01/doc/appdev.22/b28839/check_box.htm#CEGEFFBD. I've created also a button and a process and updated the sql from "delete" to "update".
The process is set: OnSubmit - After Computations and Validations; Run Process Once per page visit (default).
The issue number 1 is that I see the confirmation message (that tasks have been closed) every time I reload the page (the same when I click Select_event button).. not only after I press on that Close_task button..
For issue number 2, I have to mention that I've added a condition to show / hide the Close_task button, only if I have at least 1 task in the report.
The issue number 2 is that I see the button only if I click 2 times on the Select_Event button.. The same is for hide.
I feel like I am missing something very important about how to synchronize different events(buttons clicks), processes..
help..?
Thank you!
Anca

This forum is magic..
As soon as write here, I find the answer!
Issue 1: I fixed it by specifying this: When Button Pressed (Process After Submit When this Button is Pressed) and my button. I miseed this 1st time.
Issue 2: I moved the button after the report.. and now it's working just fine!
I did this about it for some time before asking the question here.. but I just had to write here and got the right answer ;)
Have a nice day!

Issue while readnig child records of Advanced Table after show/hide event.

Hi All,
As suggested in OAF dev guide, I used below piece of code to get control on Child items for selected Parent
-- code Starts
// get a handle to inner table
OATableBean innerTable =
(OATableBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("InnerTableBean");
// create an enumerator
OAInnerDataObjectEnumerator enum =
new OAInnerDataObjectEnumerator(pageContext, innerTable);
while (enum.hasMoreElements())
RowSet innerRowSet = (RowSet) enum.nextElement();
// get all rows
Row []rowsInRange = innerRowSet.getAllRowsInRange();
for (int i = 0; i < rowsInRange.length; i++)
Row nextRow = (Row) rowsInRange;
-- code Ends
The above piece of code works when I don’t select show/hide link of Adv table and select custom ‘Update Parent/Child’ button that is placed at header(parent) level,
upon btn event it returns all the rows of parent and works fine. But when I select show/hide link and then select ‘Update Parent/Child’ button then only it return no of Child rows displayed (fetched) on page...
For example, If I have 100 child records of a set and only 10 child rows are displayed at a time on child region , then above code only returns 10 records,
Ideally it suppose to return all 100 values.
Can someone please help on this to understand why it only return 10 records not all 100 after selecting Hide show region ? and how can I fix this issue.
Thanks
Anand

Hi,
Use the VO attached to the inner table and use VO.fetchedRowCount instead of rowsInRange.length in the for loop.
int rowcount = vo.fetchedRowCount();
i.e. for (int i = 0; i < rowcount ; i++)
Thanks,
Kumar

Robo v9 Show/Hide without Twisties - One button no longer working

Hey there, as stated I am using Robo v9 with Show/Hide without Twisties (One button) with javascipts. We have most of our images using DHTML drop-downs and when folks click on "Show All Images" on the page, the GIF changes to "Hide All Images" and all drop-downs (our images) and expanding text are diaplayed.
It had been working all the time, but now it only works when I right click the topic in the TOC and choose "Edit Topic", then while in the Edit Window (Display view), when I do a View (Ctrl-W) and it displays the page within RoboHelp..I can click the "Show All Images" and it works like it always had. BUT, if that page is not in the Edit Window, and I right click "Preview Topic", the click "Show All Images" (or on the DHTML dropdown itself) it will NOT show the images, *but the GIF image does properly toggle to "Hide All Images" (and if I do again, then it properly toggles to the "Show All Images" GIF, if I do it again), but now NO images are getting displayed for some reason. It also NEVER works properly when I publish to our website (even when clicking the DHTML dropdown itself), but the GIF images toggle properly.
If I right click and choose "Preview Topic" and click "View With" and use Internet Explorer 8 it still never works anymore, unless the topic is in the Edit Window (Display View), so I know the issue is not on the server. It stops working after I do a generate and run on my pc. Also when I view it IE8 within Robo (and Allow the Blocked Content to run the scripts), many instances of the same error is shown as:
Message: Access is denied.
Line: 2646
Char: 3
Code: 0
URI: file:///D:/Users/_RBH9_TPO-Generate/v9-testing/ehlpdhtm.js
...but I *do* have access to the folder system, but in checking the coding of the ehlpdhtm.js, that area show, where I believe line 2646, character 3 starts at the "values = getAttribute(element, prop );" line below...but maybe something does not exist:
==
//End HTML code invoked function
function InitEffect( element, prop )
var values = null;
if( getAttribute(element,prop))
values = getAttribute(element, prop );
else if( getAttribute( element, "currentStyle" ) && element.currentStyle.getAttribute)
values = element.currentStyle.getAttribute( prop );
else if (element.style.getAttribute)
values = element.style.getAttribute( prop );
if( !values )
return;
var functions = new Array();

I have a much older backup when restored, it all works properly again in all cases, but I have done so much work since then that I think would need to be manually redone. I have played with keeping those some javascipts alone (in case I changed something) and updated the rest of the data files I had added, deleted the .CPD file, but it somehow stops working again, probably with some updated file. I am not sure what specific files could be causing the negative impact that is preventing it from working. Maybe if I knew what files could impact, I couldrestore those from my old backup. The newer backups when restored do not work properly, so there was a point in time where something changed and is causing this.
All prior versions of RoboHelp (v7 and v8) have always worked and still do. I am using v9.0.1.262, as the latest version has not yet been allowed on our pcs (per security), but since my earlier backup works, I thought it may not be the issue, but wanted to tell you anyway. ;->
Any ideas on how I should proceed? What files may have impact to cause it not to work anymore? The showhide.js is the only .js to show up as a baggage file. Also, the DHTML line does exits in each html page's code, as we are still using Robo v7 as the production software and the Show/Hide always works, and I copy them into the respective Robo v9 folders (and if new, then I copy them, then import them), otherwise the newer v7 updated pages are copied over the older v9 html files while RoboHelp is closed.
Thanks in advance for any info you can provide!

I may have figured out what to fix to get v9 back to working on the Show/Hide button, but not the "why?" .
It looks to all be dealing with the Robo automatic html coding of where to locate the .js file(s)...here is a quick overview of this issue and what I did. When I view the non-working pages within Internet Explorer 8 within Robo (and Allow the Blocked Content to run the scripts), I saw many instances of the same error is shown as this in the log, which implied since I *do* have access rights, maybe the file was just not being found.
Message: Access is denied.
Line: 2646
Char: 3
Code: 0
URI: file:///D:/Users/_RBH9_TPO-Generate/v9-testing/ehlpdhtm.js
OK, here are my findings. EXAMPLE #1 and EXAMPLE #2 below are excerpts of the same file. EXAMPLE #1 is from Robo v7 and is copied to the v9 folder after it was updated so our soon to be "production" webhelp will be from Robo v9 (instead of making the same manual updates in Robo v9 as in Robo v7, I copy the updated the .html file to the Robo v9 file system). Note the direction of the directory slashes of the java scripts listed below, as they are all DOS type slashes (back slashes), EXCEPT for ehlpdhtm.js as it is the ONLY one using UNIX (forward) slashes.
EXAMPLE #1 (from Robo v7)
==
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="..\..\sty-std-topic.css">
<script type="text/javascript" language=JavaScript x-save-method=compute-relative
src="..\..\showhide.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<robohelp><script type="text/javascript" language=JavaScript1.2 src="../../ehlpdhtm.js"
x-save-method=compute-relative></script>
<script type="text/javascript" language=JavaScript1.2>

</script>
==
EXAMPLE #2(from Robo v9)
This is from the restored backup of the Robo v9 files that always work when I restore them, and note they are ALL UNIX (forward) slashes. These backup files were generated from Importing/Upgrading a copy of the Robo v7 files into Robo v9.
++
<title>[Endpoint Protection] Symantec Overview</title>
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="../../sty-std-topic.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript" src="../../showhide.js">
</script>
</head>
<body>
<?rh-script_start ?><script src="../../ehlpdhtm.js" type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
</script><?rh-script_end ?>
++
Additional info: The following is from another file from the Robo v9 backup files that always WORK and once again they are ALL UNIX (forward) slashes.
~~
<link rel="StyleSheet" href="../../sty-std-topic.css" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript" src="../../showhide.js">
</script>
</head>
<body>
<?rh-script_start ?><script src="../../ehlpdhtm.js" type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
</script><?rh-script_end ?>
~~
BUT since all .js files are referenced in EXAMPLE #1 have DOS slashes (back slashes), EXCEPT for the ehlpdhtm.js, I decided to change the line in ehlpdhtm.js FROM src="../../ehlpdhtm.js" TO src="..\..\ehlpdhtm.js" and IT (this one page) BEGAN WORKING AGAIN after I published. So having all DOS back slashes DOES work in Robo v9!!!! BUT it appears that Robo v9 only generates new pages using UNIX (forward) slashes in ALL coding. I've read about issues like this occurring with the FireFox browser, but we only use IE8, and have not read anything like this related to IE8 issues.
So if all UNIX forward slashes and all DOS back slashes can work in Robo v9 in finding and using ehlpdhtm.js, (the Show/Hide buttons function properly) why is this problem existing in Robo v9 when there are mixed "slashes" (using forward and backward)? ...and the mixed slashes ALWAYS works in Robo v7! They do not have to all be in the same direction in Robo v7 as it appears to have to be in the newer/more advanced Robo v9. Why does it matter that all slashes need to be all the same direction, if Robo v9 CAN actually read and figure out the DOS back slashes (formatted by Robo v7 creation) and actually generates UNIX forward slashes for the .js files in new Robo v9 output within the .html?
More importantly will I have to always do a Global search and replace in Robo v9 to change the direction of the "back slashes" when I copy updated Robo v7 .html files into the Robo v9 folders (instead of manually reworking each change), while in transition from v7 to v9?
Thanks in advance any information, recommendations, and feedback as your time is greatly appreciated!

Show / Hide characteristic in Bex Web

Hi,
since we use a fixed Template without the possibility to choose the characterstics / key figures from the
Navigational Menu the question is if its possible to show / hide a characteristic in Bex Web via a button in the template.
Thanks for help,
Marco

Hi Marco,
       That functionality is not present in the Button. But there is a way to acheive this.
        All you need to do is create two different queries, one showing the characteristics and other query without characteristics(hiding the characteristics).
       Then do the following steps:
1. Goto Design mode and Place a button For Showing the Characteristics.
2. Then in cmd type, choose 'Data Provider Specific Command'.
3. In the Next window, choose 'Assign Query' and select the query that show the characterisitcs.
4. Then give finish and give the Description as "SHOW CHARACTERISTICS".
5. Then place another button in for hiding the char.
6. Perform the 2nd and 3rd steps, but while selecting the query chose the one that hiding the characteristics.
7. Then give the Description as "HIDE CHARACTERISTICS".
     So, if you click the SHOW button, it will show you the query that displaying all the characteristics and vice versa if you click the HIDE button.
     It will help you to solve the issue. Let us know if any further issues.
     Assign points if it helps you.
Regards,
Yokesh.

Help with radio buttons and show/hide javascript

Hi. I'm new working with LiveCycle and also pretty much at a basic/beginner level of javascripting. I'm creating a pdf fillable form and one of the tasks I've been given is to add a function where if Option A is chosen by the user, then the correspondng table will appear, and if Option B is chosen another table will appear. After some searching I Iearned more about how radio buttons can be used, so I created a set of radio buttons. I have tried several different things, the latest was making both tables "hidden", and then taking to the radio button list group and applying the show/hide script to each of the radio buttons in the group. Still nothing seems to be working as I want it to. The table remains hidden when I click on the . This is what the code looks like right now. I know I'm obviously doing something wrong, this seems like such a basic thing to code. Getting to the frustration point, if you can sort me out with what I am missing/overlooking please let me know. Many thanks!
Note. The radio buttons are not in the same table, they are higher up in the form outside of the tables that I am trying to show/hide, but they are in the same subform. I don't know if that might be an issue?
form1.#subform[0].RadioButtonList::click - (JavaScript, client)
form1.#subform[0].RadioButtonList.#field[0]::click - (JavaScript, client)
   if ( RadioButtonList.#field[0].selectedIndex == 1)
     form1.#subform[0].Table1_Work.presence = "visible"
   else
   form1.#subform[0].Table1_Work.presence = "hidden"
form1.#subform[0].RadioButtonList.#field[1]::click - (JavaScript, client)
   if ( RadioButtonList.#field[1].selectedIndex == 2)
    form1.#subform[0].Table1_Official.presence = "visible"
else
     form1.#subform[0].Table1_Official.presence = "hidden"

Hi,
For starters you have unnamed pages, which is not a good idea. This makes it more difficult to reference objects. In your JavaScript you would have to resolve the node, however the simpliest route would be to name the page first. Something like "page1". Have a look at this example for referencing objects: http://assure.ly/kUP02y.
Next I would not place the script in each of the radio buttons, as this is likely to cause conflicts and is doubling the script. The best place to put the script is in the click event of the radio button exclusion group. This contains all of the radio buttons. See an example here: http://assure.ly/h7whb8 and https://acrobat.com/#d=ALebgueDXjewHjGyYRdrmw.
You syntax for JavaScript if/else statements is potentially incorrect. The script within the statements should be wrapped in curly brackets. While you can get away with it for single lines, I would not be inclined to take that approach. So:
if (a test) {
     // do something
else {
     // do something else
With the radio button exclusion group you can use its rawValue, just specify it in the Object > Binding palette. So on the basis of chaning the page name:
if (this.rawValue == "1") {
     page1.Table1_Work.presence = "visible";
else {
     page1.Table1_Work.presence = "hidden";
There is a syntax checker button in the Script Editor that should highlight errors.

My left shift key on Macbook Pro Retina (15") is behaving like the F11 key (show/hide open windows). The key behaves the same for the laptop keyboard and for an external Apple keyboard? This just started in last week after 6 months of use

My left shift key on Macbook Pro Retina (15") is behaving like the F11 key (show/hide open windows).
The left shift key behaves the same on the laptop keyboard and on an external Apple keyboard.
This just started in last week after 6 months of use. The right shift key and other keys on the keyboard all appear to work correctly.
Suggestions greatly appreciated.

I have a solution to this issue now after a discussion with Apple Support. Some where in the last few weeks, there was a change in the key that would do a Show Desktop under the Mission Control settings in the System Preferences. Even though the key sequence that was shown for the Show Desktop setting did not include the Left SHift key, by changing this first to having no key sequence and applying that and then changing it back to the F11 key, the Left SHift key issue that I was having has cleared up.
A second issue that was uncovered was that the SSD had some issues (uncovered when I ran Disk Utility using the Repair Disk key). I had to restart and use the Disk Utility through the Command R sequence to get to the stand alone Disk Utility. The SSD appears to be running better as a result as well.
Hope that this is of use to someone else in the future.

How do you allow firefox to toggle show/hide menus

I am using a website that has a show/hide text toggle. When I click the show button, it opens a new blank tab. I tested this on google chrome as well and it works properly. There must be a setting in firefox to correct this but I don't know what it is.

Such a hide/show action is usually done via a JavaScript onclick event.
If you get a new tab or window then this would suggest that the onclick isn't working and that the href is used and opens the new tab.
You could check via the right-click context menu in the Inspector if there is an 'ev' button appended to this link (button).

Why does the revealed image flicker when using the Show/Hide feature?

I started using the Show/Hide Button and Forms function in InDesign CS6 and have had some peculiar things happen. I was mocking up some samples and on the swf version if you hover over the left side of the blue rectangle all is fine but if you move to the right side of the blue rectangle the image starts to flicker. When you hover over the red rectangle the pop-up image just flickers constantly. I guess there must be some issue with having the button for a revealed image under some portion of the revealed image. See: http://www.idugsf.com/_a/FI_BookSamples.html .
The problem went away when the button and the revealed image did not overlap.
This problem didn't occur with another file I had originally created in CS5.
On the pdf version the buttons which are on their own layer behind the revealed image moved to the front in the pdf: http://www.idugsf.com/_a/FI_BookSamples.pdf

Captivate: Using Javascript to show/hide text captions

Hello,
I want to show/hide a text caption using javascript. I can't find the way of doing it with advanced actions. I dont know if it's because it belongs to a question slide in a pool. Does somebody knows if it's possible and how it can be done??

You can set the length of the variable when you insert it.
15 characters is just the default setting.
What I meant by COULD is that the kind of thing you are asking about here (using JavaScript to hide objects inside a Captivate movie at runtime) is not as simple as you'd like it to be.
JavaScript is not my particular area of expertise, but there are some people that chime in on this forum that ARE experts at JS. But I think they would also be the first to say that it's not as simple a thing to pull off as just "knowing the command to hide/show an object".
The easiest tool to use in Captivate for showing or hiding objects is Advanced Actions. The next easiest thing to use is ActionScript 3, and that's hard. JavaScript is a very useful programming language, but it spends all of its life outside the Captivate movie looking in through AS3's External Interface. So JS alone is not going to solve all your issues.

Buttons: show/hide feature

Hi,
I thing I know what the answer to my question will be, but I'm hoping that one of you InDesign gurus out there can provide me with a different answer to my question.
I'm putting together an interactive PDF of a directory of helpful links related to different topics. The topics are buttons that the user will click on that will display off to the side a list of links and their titles that can be either clicked on (hyperlink) or copied and pasted to an email. I've created the list of links as separate objects and to display each of these objects, I've converted them to buttons and used the Show/Hide buttons feature on the topic buttons so that when a topic button is clicked on, it will display that list of links to that topic. It works fine, but of course, now that the link lists are buttons, they can't be copied and worse yet, can't be clicked on to access the web page from that link. Obviously, by converting my link lists to buttons so that they can be displayed when the topic button is clicked, I've lost the capability of the link list to do what it was supposed to do.
The obvious solution would be to use object states, so that I maintain the original function of the link list for copying and accessing the web page of the link, but my reason for not using object states is that I don't want the output in a SWF file, which is the only way to use object states. Another solution would be to use separate pages to display each topic link list, but my concern about that is possible increase in overall file size if I have so many pages. Finally, I noticed that Adobe Acrabat has a show/hide layers feature that might work for my purpose, but I like the button creation of InDesign better.
Is there any other way to accomplish what I want done other than the above solutions, or am I just going to have to settle for one those solutions?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I assume that you're talking about Show-Hide Fields in an interactive PDF. It's not likely that it will work given the limitations of most PDF readers on mobile devices.
I'm a user of an iPad and iPhone, and haven't worked with Android or Windows devices but I think the issues are the same on all platforms. Some PDF readers are better than others. You didn't say what PDF reader you were testing on.
Here are two articles I've written about the frustrations of getting interactivity to work on mobile devices, in this case, an iPad:
http://indesignsecrets.com/for-interactive-pdf-not-all-readers-are-equal.php
http://indesignsecrets.com/navigation-button-tricks-for-interactive-pdf-on-an-ipad.php
The best PDF reader for iOS devices is PDF Expert, but I don't believe that exists for Android or Windows devices. I can view interactivity that Adobe Reader doesn't support.

Show/Hide a column in a Table region

I have search page which queries the data and displays the records in a table region. We need to have an option to show or hide a non-database column at the end of the each row in the table. If the checkbox is selected, the last column should appear and if checkbox is deselected it should get disappeared.
I have used a transient attribute in the VO and using that transient attribute trying to show the text field when the checkbox is selected. For ex, if the search returns 6 rows - if you select the checkbox of the first row , the last column "CTS" gets displayed without any issues but if you select the other rows (without checking the first row), the CTS column is not displayed.
The column is getting displayed only IF you select the checkbox of the first row and try it other rows. If you try to select the checkbox of other rows without selecting the 1st row, it doesnt show the CTS column.
AM has the PPR event
=============
public void CheckOnClick(String v_chkBox,String SalesContact,Boolean executeQuery)
System.out.println("Enters Checkbox event()");
USSContactMainVOImpl pVO= getUSSContactMainVO1();
Row poRow[]=pVO.getFilteredRows("Chkbox","Y"); // get all the selected rows
for(int i=0;i<poRow.length;i++ )
Row rowi=poRow;
System.out.println("Value:" + rowi.getAttribute("Chkbox") );
rowi.setAttribute("CTSEngineer_TR",Boolean.TRUE); // transient attr
//end of CheckOnClick()

I just referred to the Dev Guide and understand that we can use the identifier of the PPR event source row (Page 262) but still the issue persists.
String rowReference = pageContext.getParameter(OAWebBeanConstants.EVENT_SOURCE_ROW_REFERENCE);
I have a rawtext as the first column( its just a dummy column since the PPR event is not getting fired if the checkbox is the 1st control/column) and the 2nd column is the check box which has a PPR event. The PPR event fires whenever the check box is selected or deselected but surprising the text field gets editable only if the 1st row is clicked.
Changed code is as always - not sure why the table shows/hides the text column only if the 1st column is selected. Will appreciate any help.
PFR:
===
if ("OnSelect".equals(pageContext.getParameter(OAWebBeanConstants.EVENT_PARAM)))
OAApplicationModule am = pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
System.out.println("The AM name is "+am);
Boolean executeQuery = BooleanUtils.getBoolean(false);
String str1 = pageContext.getParameter("Check_Box");
String v_SalesContact = pageContext.getParameter("SalesContact_qry");
//1401
String rowReference = pageContext.getParameter(OAWebBeanConstants.EVENT_SOURCE_ROW_REFERENCE);
Serializable[] parameters = {str1,v_SalesContact,rowReference,executeQuery };//1401
Class[] paramTypes = { String.class,String.class,String.class,Boolean.class };//1401
am.invokeMethod("CheckOnClick",parameters,paramTypes);
AM(PPR Event)
==========
public void CheckOnClick(String v_chkBox,String SalesContact,String rowReference,Boolean executeQuery)
OARow rowx = (OARow)findRowByRef(rowReference);
if (rowx !=null){
System.out.println("row ref");
System.out.println("reo fref"+ rowx.getAttribute("CTSEngineer_TR") );
rowx.setAttribute("CTSEngineer_TR",Boolean.TRUE);

Show/Hide DVT Admin Menu Based on Entitlements

Hi,
We're using the DVT framework provided in Weblogic Portal 10.3.2 to create My Page functionality within our portal project. Part of the requirement is to offer limited functionality to non-admin users.
For example:
Portal Level Customization Menu
- Show/Hide based on entitlements (we tried setting an entitlement of the Main page Book, and that worked, however after that we were unable to see the Customize Menu for any child Books/Pages)
- Limit entries based on entitlements
Book Level Customization Menu
- Limit menu entries based on entitlements
- Restrict the ability to rename book based on entitlements
Page Level Customization Menu
- Limit menu entries based on entitlements
- Restrict the ability to rename page based on entitlements
Portlet Level Customization Menu
- Limit menu entries based on entitlements
- Restrict the ability to rename portlet based on entitlements
We've been able to eliminate DVT functionality for entire Books and Pages based on entitlements, however we can't find a way to provide limited functionality as described above.
Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?
Thank you.

Sorry about the confusion. What I meant was, I tested with both setting entitlement and DA roles (separately) and found that the usecase you are describing works. BTW, you are right in that only visitor entitlement roles effect dvt functionality. I just wanted to check if setting DA roles wasn't causing some undesirable behavior.
Back to the issue you are having, I am assuming you are talking about setting a 'view' entitlement for 'role1' on the primary book and logging in as a user that is not in 'role1' but has 'edit' rights on a child page or book of the primary book. In that case you shouldn't be able to see anything since you don't have view rights to the main book. If that is not the case, can you provide details about your setup?
Here is what I tested and found working. Set an 'edit' entitlement for 'role1' and a 'view' entitlement for 'role2' on the primary book. When logged in as a user from 'role2' I cannot see the 'Customize' gear icon on the primary book but I can see the gears on child books, pages and portlets. I tested the usecase with non-primary books and that works too.
Thanks
