Word wrap in pop up buttons

As it seems that either my previous question is not possible
or no one can answer it, I have tried to refine my inquiry.
I am building a horizontal menu with pop up menu that is one
line below the main menu. AS I have many two word links, I am
trying to find a way to wrap the two words so that they are on on
top of the other as it saves space and I don't want long buttons.
Can anyone help me? I have Fireworks MX

DW's pop-up menus are just awful. This is a link to an essay
by the person
who adapted that code for Macromedia - you should read it -
http://www.losingfight.com/blog/2006/08/11/the-sordid-tale-of-mm_menufw_menujs/
Not to mention that they are incompatible with templates....
There are much better ways -

  • Word Wrap Around?

    Okay.
    I'm editing my MA thesis and my chair wants me to use "word wrap around" and "left justify."
    I have never heard of either of these. He works in word and does not know anything about Pages as he has never used it. I can say the same thing about Word myself, so to each their own.
    Does anyone know how to achieve that effect in Pages?
    What he wants it to do is not break up words, but not for me to do it manually.
    Any formatting ideas?

    *Word Wrap around* is an odd expression. It could be either +word wrap+ which is what Pages does naturally, which is start a new line when it runs out of room on the end of the line, or he could mean +no hyphenation+.
    If it is the later you will need to set that in:
    +Inspector > Text (T) > More > "Remove hyphenation for paragraph"+ with the text selected.
    *Left justify* is just simply +Align left+, again in the Text tab (the 1st option in the Alignments buttons) or on the toolbar. Unless he means Justify which is align both sides of the text to the margins and spread out the words in between (the 4th option in the Alignments buttons).

  • Safari Pop up buttons / javascript

    I want to be able to select a specific item in a list of a pop up button in safari, i can do it by using a repeat statement and get value of button, with key codes simulating down arrow. This is tediously slow to the say the least. When i go view source of the page there is an identifier for the option i want, option value="f724". Is there a way to set the value of the pop up button to this number, i cant seem to do it. I was reading around the forum and found some mentions of the term do javascript but i have no idea how to implement it in this case, or if it at least possible.

    My search_replace(x, y, z) subroutine was a very basic attempt at encoding the URL properly. As it happens omitting the handler entirely and just setting keyword to text returned of result works the same in this case. The spaces get replaced with %20 by default, and the Discussions search app doesn't seem to mind.
    This style of search & replace is known as a "text item delimiters" or TIDs for short. You may have heard of a tab-delimited file. These contain cells of information separated by tabs. In the case of AppleScript's text item delimiter, we can set it to tab or any other character, and then ask for a string's "text items" provided in list form. So the steps taken by the handler in pseudo code are:
    1. Pass the text returned of the display dialog command to the search_replace handler, along with the search string "space" and the replace string "+"
    result: {"yellow fever", space, "+"}
    2. save whatever the current value of text item delimiters is
    This is to avoid potential conflicts with other code that may be using the delimiters property.
    result: {"[… anything]", ""}
    3. change the value of text item delimiters to space
    By defining " " (space) as a delimiter, we are effectively stripping every occurrence of the space character out of our string. This is because it can now be seen as a special delimiter character, as opposed to a literal one.
    4. get the text items of our string as a list
    result: {"yellow", "fever"}
    5. change the value of text item delimiters to the + symbol
    While our text string is a list, we are going to be sneaky and change the delimiter property from space to plus sign, like the one found in our original URL at Apple Discussions.
    6. coerce the list of text items back to a string
    When AppleScript coerces a list into a string, it automatically inserts the delimiter character you have defined in between each item.
    result: "yellow+fever"
    7. set the delimiter back to the way we found it in step 2
    The way I've written all this in actual code is highly abbreviated. To help read it easier remember that I'm addressing a reference to the delimiters, so every time you see the word "contents," that is referring to the text item delimiters. Also note that
    set {a, b} to {"a", "b"}
    is the same thing as
    set a to "a"
    set b to "b"
    The only difference is that the former is written in one line, and the latter is written on two lines.

  • Vertical column pop-up button-"OPEN"-with left " " appears-bottom right corner Firefox screen-Independent of web-site visited-Am "secured" against virus-Have not touched button: "Danger, Will Robinson." Appreciate any help. Thnx. DanDeren

    Occasionally and sporadically - I cannot reproduce this issue - a small vertical column-ed pop-up button appears in the lower right corner of my (Firefox) browser screen. It is not clear what causes this - I thought perhaps that it had something to do with Google's new gmail format which I have, so far refused to adopt, although when it forces me to do so, I Accept and then re-configure back to the old look. I don't think the problem is with gmail, though since tonight I was accessing the New York Time subscription web-site. However, tonight - 31JAN2012 - this button popped up, stuck around for maybe 30 seconds and then went away. It is small - about a quarter inch wide; perhaps one-half to three quarters of an inch tall. It displays on the top of the button the "<" followed underneath by the word "OPEN" (displayed vertically). I know better than to push an OPEN button whose function is absolutely opaque to me - fool me once... My desktop has the latest version of Firefox - 9.0.1 and I just loaded the latest update. I am running Windows XP Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.111025-1629 : Service Pack 3). Further info re. operating system: Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3 - that was probably pretty clear from the Version and Build info above. Hardware: ACER-42041E6643 - ACPI Multiprocessor PC - Chip/Processor: Intel Atom CPU 230 @ 1.60 GHz (2 of these). I can provide more system and configuration information, as necessary. As it is, I go to System Info and it will not let me copy all of the system info above - I had to copy it brute-force manually. I have managed tech support organizations in the past. The first question you ask the user is: "What changed?" or perhaps "What did you change?" Like every other user with an issue, my response is: Nothing of which I am aware. I certainly am not going to push this button - perhaps it toggles between something and something else - more than like so - or it opens "something" - I will not find out what since I refuse to push it. I am guessing this is some benign "feature" of which I am unaware. Any assistance with this will be greatly appreciated. Thanks and best, Dan Deren.

  • PE8 Word Wrap

    Is it possible to word wrap the chapter titles in the menu templates provided with Premiere Elements 8?  I've tried adding enough spaces to make it wrap in the edit block but the second line gets cut off on the menu generated.  Hitting return when the curser is between words exits the edit screen or crashes the program.

    Also, one consideration, when using Paul's Hard-Return method is that if you are just working with the main title, or sub-title, you'll be fine, so long as you do not cover up elements on the Menu. If, however, you are working on text for Buttons, the DVD-specs. do not allow Buttons to overlap - even by a 1 pixel row, or column. The "size" of the Button is determined by a bounding box (square or rectangle) that encloses the largest element in that Button.
    With PrE's Menu Sets, one is usually NOT changing Button text, but if you do, remember to not make this portion of the Button much larger, or you will get overlaps, which are not allowed.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Thunderbird 31.6.0 sometimes fails to word wrap properly

    Text lines sometimes fail to word wrap properly. Example: a sentence that contains the words "foggy bottom" , where the "foggy" is at the end of one line (when composing) and the word "bottom" is wrapped to the beginning of the next line appears like this: "foggybottom" when it appears in the "sent" folder. The two words were separated by a single space when composing. Does not happen all the time, only occasionally. I cannot reproduce this problem on demand - it only happens at random.

    Can you confirm that you are using Plain Text, not HTML?
    do you use Plain Text all the time?
    Can you check the following and say what you have as settings:
    Tools > Options > Advanced > General tab
    or
    Menu icon > Options > Options > Advanced > General tab
    click on 'Config Editor' button
    it will tell you to be careful :)
    In top search type: flowed
    What Value do you have for the following:
    I have not changed anything, so this is the default settings on my system.
    * mailnews.display.disable_format_flowed_support; Value = false
    * mailnews.send_plaintext_flowed; Value = true
    In top search type: wrap
    All Value settings show what I have
    What Value do you have for the following?
    * mail.compose.wrap_to_window_width; Value = true
    * mail.wrap_long_lines; Value = true
    * mailnews.wraplength; Value = 72
    * plain_text.wrap_long_lines; Value = false
    * view_source.wrap_long_lines; Value = false
    In the Saved Draft or Sent folder.
    select the email so you can read contents in message pane
    click on 'Other Actions' and then 'View source'
    where it says 'content type does it also say 'format-flowed'
    eg:
    Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252; format=flowed
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

  • How Can I Word-wrap a Value?

    How can I force a selection in a drop-down menu to word-wrap in the value portion of an object?  I can achieve my desired result in the caption portion by increasing the height of the object.  However, when I increase the size of the object, the value portion does not wrap.

    Are you sure that a drop down menu is the best option for what you're doing? Maybe another Object type would suit your purposes better--like radio buttons.
    Anyway, You can edit the XML source and add a CDATA tag around the items in your list. So, if you have a drop down list with {Something really long goes here, Something else really long here, And another really long thing} as your options, click on the XML Source tab.
    Add
    <![CDATA[Something really long
    goes here]]>
    Now, this will break the line as you're wanting to do, but it's going to cause a different problem--The list of items was originally selected by the first, second, and third lines in the dropdown list. They still are. So, you have 6 different lines, and only the first three can select something. If you're just wanting to have a dropdown that the user selects to read a list and not to select something, then this is probably ok. If you want the user to select an item, then this is a terrible idea.
    If your lines are just a little bit too long to fit, you can set the value's font to "0" Then it will shrink and expand the font size to fit the largest selection. Two notes, the dropdown arrow will cover the last bit of the line, and there is a limit to how small it can get.

  • Webforms - Wrap Text/Word Wrap for Column Headings

    I have some member aliases that are set as my webform's column headings, but they are fairly long. Setting the column width to a custom value that fits most of the text in the heading makes the form very wide and ugly to work with. I don't see any option to Wrap Text or use Word Wrap in the column headings. Is there any way to do this?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I am not aware of any option which allows you to wrap the text, it may be possible customizing the [CSS |http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/html_hp_admin/ch12s03.html] though to be honest I am not even sure about that and even if it was possible it would apply to all apps.
    Cheers

  • How to word wrap within text field

    I've created a form with a text field but when filling the form out, the words don't word wrap, but merely go in a single line across the text box field. 
    When can I format the text box to word wrap?
    tks

    I have set my text fields to multi line and the text wraps but it only starts about halfway down the text box.  Please help, this is getting frustrating...

  • How can I turn off word wrap in the View Source output?

    I'm trying to extract HTML from Word and one way to do that is to save the Word file as a .htm file and then View Source in a browser and copy that. But the words are wrapped in the View Source file. I want each paragraph to be all on one line. Is there a setting for the View Source feature that will turn off word wrap?
    Once I have that done and copied into a plain text editor, I will use Search>Replace to get rid of all the stuff Word puts there and just end up with the simple paragraph tags at the end of each paragraph, all on one line.

    You can disable wrapping and syntax highlighting in the View menu in the Edit > View Source window.

  • Looking for a word processor without word wrap, text edit doesn't cut it

    I'm looking for a word processor without word wrap, text edit doesn't work. In text edit, it automatically scoots my text over to the next line but I just want it to keep going with a horizontal scrollbar. Is there a text editor I can download from the app store or can I get textedit to work somehow where it uses a horizontal scroll bar instead of entering text to the next line?

    Hi,
    thought TextWrangler can do it.
    But it seems that the 'no word-wrap' "feature" isn't that much wanted anymore.
    Maybe one of these http://www.macupdate.com/find/mac/text%20editor can do it.

  • Read Only TextAreas with Carriage Return, Line Breaks and Word Wrapping

    Hi all,
    I know there are a few posts around this subject but I cannot find the answer to the exact problem I have.
    I have a page that has a 'TextArea with Character Counter' (4000 Chars) that is conditionally read only based on the users credentials (using the 'Read Only' attributes of the TextArea item).
    When the field is editable (not Read Only) everything works fine but when I make the field Read Only I start to have problems:
    The first problem is that the Carriage Return and Line Breaks are ignored and the text becomes one continuos block. I have managed to fix this by adding pre and post element text of pre and /pre tags. This has made the Carriage Return and Line Breaks word nicely and dispaly correctly.
    However, it has introduced a second problem. Long lines, with no Carriage Returns or Line Breaks, now extend to the far right of the page with no word wrapping, making my page potentially 4000+ characters wide.
    How can I get the field to be display only, with recognised Carriage Returns and Line Breaks, and Word Wrapping inside a fixed width of, say, 150 characters?
    Many thanks,
    Martin

    Hi,
    Just a cut and paste of yours with the field name changed:
    htp.p('<script>');
    htp.p('$x("P3_COMMENTS").readonly=true;');
    htp.p('</script>');I also have the following in the page HTML Header, could they be conflicting?
    <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
    function setReleaseToProd(wpTypeCode){
       //setReleaseToProd($v(this))
      var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$v('pFlowId'),'APPLICATION_PROCESS=set_release_to_prod',0);
      get.addParam('x01',wpTypeCode);
      gReturn = get.get();
      if(gReturn) {
         $s('P3_RELEASE_TO_PROD',gReturn);
      get = null;
    </script>I am a long way from knowing much about Javascript (this page code was written by someone else) so all help is much appreciated.

  • Word Wrap with a Vertical Grid

    I've got a vertical grid with my headers in the left column and descriptive text in the column immediately to the right.  I'd like to have the descriptive text word wrap but checking the word wrap box on the layout tab doesn't seem to have any effect.
    Any ideas?  I'm using 11.5 SP3

    I'm not sure if it will work with the iGrid in a vertical orientation, but have you tried setting the RowHeight to something like 20 or 30 instead of the default of 0?  This setting will auto adjust the grid lines based upon the font-size, but you may need to force it to a certain height in order for the wrapping to work.
    Regards,
