Type assist in dropdown menus (JS CS3)
Hi --I have a script that creates a dialog with a dropdownlist (using scriptui).
I have noticed on my Mac (OS 10.5), that when I click on the dropdown menu and start typing, I am brought to the corresponding item on the dropdown list -- which is nice because it is a long list.
However, this type assist function does not work when I run the same script on a Windows XP box.
Is there any way to enable this when running a javascript on a Windows XP box?
There's a few extensions that have caused that problem for other users.
Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

Frozen selections: I'm working from my Intel iMac trying to print (from both Aperture and Photoshop CS5) to my new Epson 4900 printer. When the Print menu comes up, under the "Basic" section of the "Printer Settings" the dropdown menus for both "Page Setup" and "Media Type" won't activate. All other options and selections work fine. Just these 2 are not functioning. What's up with that??
Here we are 15 months later and Microsoft Excel 2013 has the SAME ERROR
If one chooses:
Print Preview
Page Setup
Sheet
Then the print area and print titles (Rows to repeat at top, columns to repeat at top)
are all grayed out and cannot be selected.
If, however, I choose the
page layout bar and click print titles then
everything works fine.
Thanks for the solution!!! -
Kind of a weird question; I know. I'm new to both the Adobe Developer forums, and to XMP in general.
Here's the basic gist of what I'm trying to do:
We've got a Group, Category, and Subcategory structure for a given variable. Obviously, the subcategories are unique to a particular category, just as the categories are unique to a particular group; so displayed as a tree:
I. Group_1
1. Category_1A
a. Subcategory_1Ax
b. Subcategory_1Ay
c. Subcategory_1Az
2. Category_1B
a. Subcategory_1Bx
b. Subcategory_1By
c. Subcategory_1Bz
3. Category_1C
a. Subcategory_1Cx
b. Subcategory_1Cy
c. Subcategory_1Cz
II. Group_2
1. Category_2A
a. Subcategory_2Ax
b. Subcategory_2Ay
c. Subcategory_2Az
2. Category_2B
a. Subcategory_2Bx
b. Subcategory_2By
c. Subcategory_2Bz
3. Category_2C
a. Subcategory_2Cx
b. Subcategory_2Cy
c. Subcategory_2Cz
The subcategories are unique to their categories; just as the categories are unique to their groups. In an effort to prevent garbage coming into the metadata, and because these groups, categories, and subcategories have already been defined, I'd like them displayed as dropdown menus; Once the user has selected a group for the file, the Category dropdown would appear (or become active) and display the Category choices available only to that group, and then do the same in terms of the Subcategory.
I'm guessing that I'll start with a closed choice, assign the values to the groups, and then write a function to display only the choices for that group in the category dropdown. Trouble is, I don't have a whole lot of JavaScript experience -- and the word I've seen tossed around in this area seems to be an Array -- so I'm wondering if I'm barking up the wrong tree. If anyone has some kind of direction to point me in, it'd be helpful.
I'm not looking for someone to do my work for me (that's missing the point) -- this is an exercise in learning XML, Some scripting, Flash Builder, and Javascript, and I'd really like to develop it entirely myself; because I am having fun!!
Many thanks,
.themummDo you mean the stuff from here:
http://projects.nateweiss.com/nwdc/workcode.htm
If so, to be honest, don't ("use it", I mean).
It might have been a reasonable approach to this sort of thing ten years ago, but it's not a very good way of doing this sort of thing these days.
This sort of thing is pretty easy to knock together with some HTML, JQuery to do some JS stuff and a CFC behind the scenes.
Indeed just using some binds to <cfselect> tags would be a better approach.

After use and not even long use dropdown menus are blank, Firefox won't close.
For a couple of weeks after a short time of use dropdown menus are blank almost as if they have been lifted off the screen but I can see an imprint of where they should be.. Sometimes running the cursor over them seems to make them appear but not often.
When this happens I cannot close Firefox.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== a couple of weeks agoFrom your description, it seems that an add-on may me causing your issue. Follow the steps at [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] to test whether your extensions are causing this behavior.

Muse dropdown menus won't "hide" in design phase
Suddenly (since downloading v3.0), when I'm in design mode, ALL of my dropdown menus are showing. Before, they'd do that every time I made a change to the menu, but I could go onto my master page and click a menu item that DIDN'T have a dropdown and they'd go away so that I could design without having them "in my face." But now, they're just there and I can't seem to get rid of them. Anyone else having this problem? Is there something I can do to hide the dropdowns while I'm designing?
Yes. That and more.
I want the top menus to be horizontal, when I scroll over them, I want the sub menu to scroll down horizontally if there are more than one sub menu, it won’t do that.
All sub menus should drop down under the top menus so you can see three of them if there are there, four or five.
Currently if I have a top menu of five items each one has say three submenus under each top menu, when I scroll over the top menu the sub menu roll out horizontally and the other two don’t show up until I actually scroll over the one submenu then the other submenu pops out one at a time.
On top of all this the original post says menus won’t hide in design phase, making it all that much more frustrating.
For goodness sake “it it ain’t broke don’t fix it!” Don’t assume that if something is obvious to one person is obvious to everyone else. -
How can I get my dropdown menus to work on Safari?
I am in a real bind here. The blog I use for my class I teach has dropdown menus, but these don't seem to work in Safari on iPad. They work just fine in Chrome, but our lovely school blocks the Chrome browser...Don't even get me started.
Is there something I could add to the code to get these menus to work in Safari on iPad?
The blog URL is stmlatin2020.blogspot.com
ThanksTry this ...
Tap Settings > Safari > Advanced then make sure JavaScript is switched ON.
That site is not optimized for iOS devices. Only browsers on desktop computers suport CSS (drop down menus). -

Office 365: dropdown menus don't stay open + theme problem
Hello
I recently encountered some problems that make the Office 365 unusable. Could you help me figure it out?
Problems:
These problems appear in every office program: word, excel, power point...
Windows are in some very old 98 looking theme
Office programs appear to be in a window within a window (Image 2)
Dropdown menus in ribbon and in settings stay open less than a second - makes them unusable
Situation:
Office worked well for 2 months, then problems started
Graphic drivers are up to date
Windows is up to date
All the other programs work normally
No recent hardware changes
Comodo Internet Security installed recently
Automatic updates enabled for pretty much everything
When reinstalling, even the installation windows goes to 98 theme
My actions:
Selected default theme from control panel, no effect
Restarted, no effect
Reinstalled Office (Image 1), no effect
Disabled Comodo Internet Security, no effect
Tried running in safe mode, no effect
My setup:
Acer R7-572
Windows 8.1 Pro N
Office 365
I would post some screenshots, but seems that it is not allowed for me.
Any help is appreciated.Hi,
Seems you've already tried lots of steps, including a complete reinstallation of Office, but to no avail. As per your description above, I'm thinking it might be something on Windows side that is interfering with Office product.
Have you ever tried to disable the hardware graphics acceleration in Office? Sometimes a recent updated video driver might be incompatible with Office. Please have a try and see if it helps:
Open any Office 2013 component, for example Word 2013, then go to FILE>Options>Advanced
Tick the option of "Disable hardware graphics acceleration" under the section
Display
If issue persists after the steps above, I would suggest we try to perform a clean boot in Windows and then verify result. This will help to determine whether any program conflict is causing the issue:

Hope this helps.

It's recommended to download and install
Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office

I installed firefox on my laptop, vista and IE installed, and as yet have no problems. I decided to install firefox on my desktop with XP home and IE installed and it has created a problem. Before installing firefox I had javascript dropdown menus on my web site which I build and upload to my isp. Now I cannot get the dropdown menus to run at all on my desktop. I tried uninstalling firefox but it still doesn't work. Help would be appreciated even to get back to how it was before installing firefox.
Yes, there is a work around by doing a forced restore to a "new iPhone", and manually synching the apps, one by one. You still can't update or delete any of them without going through this again. The only real fix will be from Apple - hopefully in 2.1 which is rumored to be released later today...

4.x dropdown menus are FUBAR
Since the 4.x "upgrade" all dropdown menus and predictive popups go invisible a second after appearing. They are still there, just invisible. If you move you mouse pieces of it reappear but you have to make your choice real fast or just guess.
3.x was flawless. I was very happy with it and would like to go back to it. Is there any specific reversion path from 4.x back to 3.x? Or do I have to uninstall 4.x then install 3.x?Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Why is Safari Not allowing Dropdown menus?
On my account pages for my bank it is not allowing dropdown menus to come up. I have made sure that java script and plug-ins were enabled, but still they will not come up. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank youHi
Welcome to Apple Discussions
It may be how the site is coded. Have you tried the site in another browser? Here's a list of browsers for the Mac platform.
Firefox 2.0.4
Camino,
Mozilla,
Opera,
Shiira,
OmniWeb (shareware).
I suggest trying Firefox. If it doesn't work there, try Opera.

Themes and Masters dropdown menus appear in Spanish
Although every other menu appears in English, why do the Themes and Masters dropdown menus display menu selections in Spanish? I'm using Keynote 2.0.2.
They only appear when windows is set to the default screen resolution of 96 ppi:

Safari is slowly getting more buggy. Actions, such as clicking on a field, don't give the expected results. I may have to click on the red exit button 5 times to get it to work. I get unwanted dropdown menus. I have version 5.1.7 on OS 10.6.8. System is 3 years old.

Is Editable Dropdown possible(To type inside the dropdown)???
Hi
I want to create a dropdown which should be editable.
That is I should be able to type inside the dropdown, so that I can add that value also to the dropdown values.
Can any body help me to make the dropdown editable?
Thanks in advance

Even EVS will not work out of the box. If enetered value is not found in type ValueSet error will be raised.
I guess it is possible to modify solution I've described here: https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/pub/wlg/3309. [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]
The only change necessary is: in EvsHelper.applyValue add new value enetered to ValueSet of type. Should work. Unfortunately, cannot test this myself right now.
