Updating Webhelp About button

How can I update the information in the About button in the toolbar for help generated using Webhelp? I have the copyright information for my project in there and it has gotten out of date, but I can't find where to update it. The About file in my baggage files list is .htm and it won't open for me.

This was interesting because it made me check the copyright date of the skin used with my WebHelp Pro project.
When I clicked Edit, RoboHelp displayed the "Critical error of Source Control Provider. Please restart IDE." error. I clicked OK.
Then, when I tried to edit the skin, it displayed the "Cannot Complete Operation" error because the file could not be checked out from version control. (This sequence of errors occurs every time I generate the Help, too. After generating the Help, I have to shut RH down and open it again in order to keep working on the project..)
In this case I had to edit the copyright date by opening the skin in an external editor.
When I regenerated the Help, I didn't even see the About box.
When I opened the Skin Editor again, I saw that it's a WebHelp Skin Editor. I assume that, for some reasons known only to RoboHelp, the About Box does not appear in WebHelp Pro output.

Change title, tooltip and icon for About button in published Webhelp?

About Webhelp is just plain wrong. The tooltip ought to read "About <project name>" and the title bar for the About window should be eliminated (or else have it read About <project ver xx>.
How do I do this?
Likewise, is it possible to change the ICON for the About dialog in the toolbar of a published Webhelp project?

I have the same issue.
I modified the whskin_banner.htm file to control what displays for the About button. The only thing I can't figure out is how to modify the tooltip. It still says "About Webhelp" when you hover over it.
I searched the whskin_banner.html file for the words "About Webhelp" but nothing was found. I looked in the Edit Skin wizard and couldn't find anything either. I also searched the Skinny on Skins and it doesn't address this issue.
How do I change the About tooltip? Did I miss something?
Thanks!

My "About" button is not working HELP

Hello fellow BB owners ive been tweaking and updating my new 8330 and it seems that now my about button does not respond.All the other menus and places work fine but when i click on the about button it just does not respond.
thanks in advance

Go to Solution.

Jason, have you recently upgraded your device to OS 4.5, and in that process did you remove the Voice Activated Dialing features? If you did, that also disables the Options > About screen, and was likely explained in the upgrade process you used.
Workaround: on the homescreen, press and hold ALT while typing E A C E
or
Press ALT + rightSHIFT + H at the same time.

Update Notification Download Button Issue

Hi,
Not really sure if this should be in the General area or in the Bugs & Issues area... so please moderator(s) please move this if it needs it...
Was just informed about an update to the Flash Player ... so hit the download and ran the installer... it started to automatically download McAfee Scan Program, (which I did not, nor have I ever included for download/installation) ....
The download button on the update notifier should be pointed to the page where it asks if you want the McAfee software as well... it does not currently do this. is automatically download the installer that calls for both the McAfee and Flash Player to download and install...
This is a backhanded method to have unwanted software installed on a consumer's computer...
I recommended updating the download button to stop at the page that asks if you want the McAfee sofware as well
Just my 2 cents...

unfortunately no i didnt think to screencap this, nor had i thought to do it as it took me my surprise when it happened and i didnt think to deliberately duplicate the issue... but i can try to explain the process step by step that I personally encountered....
I rebooted my machine (well i had a stack dump and it decided it was time... gotta love windows)...
during the startup sequence the update notification window came up with a download button on it... just saying there's a flash player update and do you want to download it...
so sure hit the download button thinking it was one of those hotfixes that already downloaded and it would just apply it like it usually when say shockwave updates...
however instead it opened a "would you like to save this exe file to your computer" dialog box thru firefox and so said go for it... and it downloaded it...
i then went into windows explorer and launched it ... it started the download process of the flash player software... no problem...
then about 25% of the way through that another progress bar comes up telling me its now downloading the McAfee scanner software and i'm like 'oh hell no' and cancelled the download/installation/update process...
doing this cancellation brought me to a webpage at adobe saying that installation failed ... so i manually went to the flashplayer download page and UNCHECKED the mcafee option and then proceeded to try all over again...
it worked fine the second time doing it manually that way...
when it asked me to save this new exe file, i swear it was named exactly the same as the bundled software version ... i attempted to check but when i cancelled the original BAD install/upgrade attempt it deleted the original install/update file that i had downloaded... and it didnt send it the recycle bin either... as i checked
(same thing happened after the successful install of the non-bundled upgrade/installation ... it too vanished after it was done)
anyways... that's what happened to me... then i came here in a huff
hope this was a little helpful ... i'll be sure to fire up comtasia or some other screen capture video software next time i see that upgrade dialog box and send you a video if it happens again LOL

Lion disables system info and software update in about this mac

hey guys I have problem with lion when I reboot lion,
it disables system info and software update in "about this mac"
actually it says "this button is disabled because there is no system profiler application" or "this button is disabled because there is no software update application"
and also everytime when I reboot my computer it always changes default applicatons. for example
it changes from VLC player to quicktime, from Archive utility to textEdit and so on.
each time i got to reinstall "Afloat application" if i want to use it.
for making them ok I just need to open software updater from system pref. and the button becomes visible again.
it is same with the system info. I gotto search system profiler via spotlight search and I run, button becomes visible again.
for the archieve utility i got to go to coreservices and open Archieve utility then automatically it becomes default app for .zip files again.

Did you just install Lion? If so, you might need to try to reinstall as something got messed up.
Alfoat uses SIMBL which will break at just about every update. The reason you may have to keep installing Afloat is because the Resume feature of Lion is not compatible with SIMBL. See here: http://roaringapps.com/app:383
SIMBL is a low-level system hack and may be causing your problems.

Edit the About Button

Hi again ... I am trying to include our company logo and
links in the 'About' button on the Main Toolbar. Working in
RoboHTML 6.0 with my primary output as FlashHelp. I've tried to
edit an existing skin and Edit is disabled. I tried to create a new
skin and have the option to create a customer WEBHELP skin or to
create a skin from the gallery. I chose to create a skin from the
gallery since when I tried to create a WEBHELP skin it doesn't work
in my FlashHelp. Once I've chose a skin from the gallery I'm asked
to provide a new name, which I've done. This simply drops the new
skin in the Project list and does not allow me to edit this new
skin. The new skin does appear in the output properties but I'm not
able to edit the About button in this view.
Any ideas on how to edit the About button on the Main
toolbar.
Thank you.
Kathleen

You're most welcome!
Let me fix something I said earlier
: You can change the "Powered By" part of the button
by opening wfres.xml in your output files (use a text editor like
Notepad). You would see a line that looks like this:
<item name="Logo/Author" value="Powered By"/>
Change "Powered By" to something else and save the file, and
that text will show up in your button. However, be aware that when
you generate FlashHelp again, your changes to this XML file get
overwritten. If you want the button text to remain changed, you can
keep the changed version of wfres.xml in another location. Then you
copy and paste it into your output directory after you generate
FlashHelp. (Otherwise, you have to go into wfres.xml every time you
generate FlashHelp and change this text again.)
Also note that what I said earlier about having to change the
.fla file for this button is still true for the "RoboHelp" or
"FlashHelp" part of the button. That part has to be changed in
Adobe Flash.
A little background on your question about changing skin
files: A FlashHelp skin is made up of multiple SWF movies. A .swf
is created using a .fla file, which is editable in Adobe Flash. The
.fla files used to create the FlashHelp skin movies are included
with the .swfs. When you create or import a Flash skin, RoboHelp
puts all the .fla and .swf files in this directory: <project
folder>/!SkinSubFolder!/<skin name>. If you change one of
the Flash files in this directory and export it as a SWF into that
same directory, RoboHelp will use that new version of the file when
you next run the FlashHelp output.
This means (to answer your question) that if you change a
.fla and .swf file in a particular project's !SkinSubFolder!, the
skin is changed for that project only. To use that same changed
file for another project, the safest way is probably to import the
entire skin into the other project.
Hope this is some help,
Ben

Hi Willy,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The article below provides information about specific update and restore alerts, including the 9006 alert that you saw when attempting to update your iPad 2 to iOS 8.1. Try using the instructions provided to see if the issue is caused by a conflict with the security software on your computer.

Update Opportunity Totals button on Opprtunity Product Revenue line items

Hello,
In our application, the sales process is managed at the product revenue level. Each product line item goes through various stages and could be in the intiall state or get cancelled as well. I need to exclude these product revenue line items while updating the Revenue amount at the Opprtunity Header. With the <Update Opportunity Totals> button, the total is updated at the header irespective of the product reveneue status. I think I need to build a custome webservice to do that.
I need to find out if the <Update Opportunity Totals> button can be made read-only or removed based on roles and priveledges.
Thanks

Robin,
You can't turn off the button, but OOTB functionality can help you manage this. In our case, we created a workflow for the Revenue Record Type. The workflow watches for changes to the status of any Opty Revenue record, via the "Before modifed record saved" trigger event. When a user changes the status of an Opportunity Product Line Item to a specified value, "Lost" in our case, the workflow automatically updates the Quantity value at the line item to 0, and the Revenue and Expected Revenue values at the Opty Product Line Item level are calculated to be zero accordingly. When the user updates the totals at the Opty level, the totals inlcude only the records that have revenue associated with them at the Opty Prod Line Item level.
I assume your requirements are similar and the same approach could be used in your case.
Good Luck,
Thom

Is it possible to change the name of the about button "About" to "MyPName"??

Hi,
Is it possible, in AfterEffects CS3, to change displaying name of the about button "About" to "MyPName"??
If that is not possible could you please tell me how can I add the parameter, in my UI, similar to the "About" button?? I mean
- color of the "MyPName" = color of the "About" button ( blue color right now )
- click on "MyPName" then should open dialog ... etc.
Thanks
Manjunath

It cannot be possible ( I think ).

Table not updating while command button is held down

Hi guys,
My application obtains data and then outputs this into a table which updates after each set of data is read. This part works fine, however I also require the user to be able to hold down one of two buttons to control control the function of an actuator (forwards and rearwards). To explain this further, when one of these buttons are pressed a voltage is output, when released the voltage is reset to zero. However, while the button is held down the table does not continue to update, when the button is released the table then updates through all the queued values. I understand that this is most likely a problem with the holding of the button causing the other user interface events to not be processed. I have therefore tried using ProcessSystemEvents(), ProcessDrawEvents(), and experimented with using an async timer to control the updating of the UI through the use of PostDeferredCallback(), all without success.
If anyone can help with a solution that would allow me to perform both of these required functions simultaneously it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance
Ben
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Could you use a toggle button instead of a simple button to be hold down? If yes, then in the button callback you could simple test the value of the toggle (1 if pressed, 0 if released) and operate turn on/off the output voltage to the actuator. You'll have a commit event every time the operator changes button state. (you may need to apply some security limit switch or timeput on the control in case the user forgets to turn the toggle off: the situation is similar to a three-state switch that controls a motorized window blind).
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.
