• How can I access the standard import dialog box. Import button does not appear in the library module

  Only the clumsy 'compact' mode is now available. Forums and tutorials that show all 'standards' import dialog. Forum Adobe suggests installing earlier version. Please tell us how this can be done with CC

  You should always use the 2015.2 or 2015.2.1 version which had the modified import dialog box. Update LR 2015.3 through the creative cloud desktop application.

• Trying to create a multi-line dialog box

  I worked on a study PDF guide. At the end of each chapter is a self test, and I have some javascript which marks the review when a user clicks a button. Currently, I use a window app.alert to notify the user what responses it is correct and display explanations on incorrect answers. Unfortunately, some of the explanations may be a little long, so I had some tests auto split in several alerts. I have a snippet of code (below) for example to a dialog box, but have been unable to find examples of a multi-line dialog box. A thread has responses as "it is not easy", but no solid examples. Someone at - it an example of a simple dialog box, a line that I could adjust to my needs?

  var oDlg = { 
      description: { name: "Test Dialog", elements: [ { name: "Hello World", type: "static_text", }, { type: "ok", }, ] } 
  }; 
  // Dialog Activation 
  app.execDialog(oDlg);
  
  

  I tried to do something like that, but it barfs on the first carriage return:

  var sText = "Question 5: Incorrect! The correct answer is B\r\rA, C, and D are incorrect. && and || are both short-circuit operators. With &&, when the left side evaluates to false the right side is never evaluated.

• Showing the full path of the file in the Save as dialog box

  I'm a relatively new for MAC OS and I took the habit of intelligent services on Microsoft file manipulation, in particular to the Save as dialog box. Who has a little smart "arrows" and "buttons" allowing you to ask around the system of files easily, but I faced something else in the MAC operating system.

  Finally, I was able to pass on the path of file bar in the Finder (basically, that nice, small bar with the name of folders/sub-sub-sub-folders you can switch to and it shows "where you are both in the file system"), but I don't miss the Save as dialog box. I tried to find it in the settings to turn it on, scoured the internet, talked with experts at Apple, also called the central phone number, but I couldn't learn all solutions to get the bar path of file under tension to the Save as dialog box.

  And believe me, it's very annoying, when you create a file structure when you register under ' week/Tuesday/XY client Documents/work/approvals/journal/2016/August/2nd /' a file and for the recording of the version changed the same file under the same path, but not to not only return to the file a subfolder creation there AB of the customer, I have to click again through the whole lot.

  The arrows 'story' don't help because when I click on the it puts me directly to record under the folder where I have the last recorded the previous file, or help click on the drop-down above, where records are listed because I could never find the subfolder where I want to go back to there.

  Are there solutions to get the path of file under tension to the Save dialog box under?

  Or is there a plan to get it in the new version of the operating system?

  It is the same on the open file dialog box...

  ..., and I don't want to keep a Finder opens just to copy..., on the way to the record, which was the same effort and has been even more professional!

  I would like to just turn this simple file path bar,..., even that which is available in the Finder!

  Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks for sharing your thoughts in advance, Ian

  1 NO.

  2. we are all just users here and have no info about Apple's plans.

  If you do not want to let Apple know your feelings, you can send your comments here.

• I can't find 'save to desktop' in the Save as dialog box to an Excel on Win7

  In fact I do not see how to save any kind of file on my desktop with Win 7 and MS Office 2007 Pro.

  There is that no more save it as only includes orders for the economy in several formats, but the dialog box that opens shows not the desktop as the destination to save in.  The only affected destinations are;  models, Favorites, libraies, residential, computer group, WIN7C and network.  I explored all the and can not find any "desktop."

  Desktop is not listed under Favorites on the left side of the Save as
  dialog box? Simply click on it.

  But note that I strongly recommend against save data files in the
  desktop computer. My recommendation is that you put nothing else that shortcuts on
  the desktop computer. There are two things wrong to put the real files it:

  1. one day probably will remove you a real file, thinking that you were
  just remove a shortcut.

  2. you you cluttering up the desktop with too many files, making it difficult
  to find what you are looking for.

  You have to put your files Excel (and other real data files) in the
  Documents folder. If you have some of these files you want
  access often, put shortcuts to these files on the desktop.

• Native of filebrowse using and the cascading Save dialog box

  In my application I need to open file and file save dialog box when a specific button is clicked. I looked at the docs of stunts, but I found that the native options. Tried the native alert dialog, change of filebrowse dialog type. It displays well on Simulator, but could not get any output file that will be used in the Qt code.

  I pass these parameters

  int * num = NULL;

  char * folder [1024];

  Native Subforums have no useful information on this subject. Any help is greatly appreciated

  Hello again, here's the example as promised.

  To use the native filebrowse dialog box, the native code must run in its own thread to prevent the user interface in the Cascades to block. This is achieved by encapsulating all the dialog box code in a class derived from QThread.  The class I wrote is called FileBrowseDialog

  This class derives from QObject (by QThread) which means that it can be used by QML when it exposes properties and signals. The FileBrowseDialog class has 3 properties

  -multiple selection: a Boolean flag indicating if single or multiple selection is allowed

  -filepaths: a read only value that returns the list of files selected

  -Filters: a read/write value is where you can specify one or more filters to file (for example, ".doc", "*.jpg") etc.

  The next part is how you call the FileBrowseDialog through the QML. To do this, we must inform the QML of the FileBrowseDialog page. This is done in the App class via the qmlregistertype code.

  App.cpp

  #include 
  #include 
  #include 
  
  #include "app.hpp"
  #include "FileBrowseDialog.hpp"
  
  using namespace bb::cascades;
  
  App::App()
  {
      qmlRegisterType("Dialog.FileBrowse", 1, 0, "FileBrowseDialog");
      QmlDocument *qml = QmlDocument::create("main.qml");
      qml->setContextProperty("cs", this);
  
      AbstractPane *root = qml->createRootNode();
      Application::setScene(root);
  }
  

  The QML is now ready to be able to use the FileBrowseDialog. The example below is a page complete qml which has a button and a label. When we click on the FileBrowseDialog button is open, and all selected files will appear in the label.

  Main.QML

  import bb.cascades 1.0
  import Dialog.FileBrowse 1.0
  
  Page {
      content: Container {
          Label { id: filebrowseDialogLabel }
          Button {
              text : "File Browse Dialog"
              onClicked: {
                  filebrowseDialog.show();
              }
          }
          attachedObjects: [
              FileBrowseDialog {
                  id: filebrowseDialog
                  multiselect : true
                  filters : ["*.doc","*.jpg","*.txt"]
                  onSelectionCompleted: {
                      if(filebrowseDialog.filepaths.length>0)
                          filebrowseDialogLabel.text = filebrowseDialog.filepaths[0];
                      else
                          filebrowseDialogLabel.text = "no file selected";
                  }
                  onSelectionCancelled: {
                      filebrowseDialogLabel.text = "file browse dialog was cancelled";
                  }
              }
          ]
      }
  }
  

  And it's pretty much just invoke the native dialog file navigation in stunts. Please note save the file would follow a similar model, but I found that this dialog box was not particularly useful because it displays only a simple dialogbox with a text file name entry.

  See you soon

• StackLayout - button on the same line

  Hello

  I have always a problem with button and stacklayout: I can't have different button on the same line.

  A simple code like:

  Page {
              Container {
  
                  layout: StackLayout {
                      orientation: orientation.LeftToRight
                  }
                  verticalAlignment: VerticalAlignment.Top
                  horizontalAlignment: HorizontalAlignment.Fill
  
                  Button {
                      id: button1
                      text: qsTr("button1")
                      layoutProperties: StackLayoutProperties {}
                      horizontalAlignment: HorizontalAlignment.Left
                      verticalAlignment: VerticalAlignment.Top
                      preferredWidth: 20
  
                  }
  
                  Button {
                      id: button2
                      text: qsTr("button2")
                      layoutProperties: StackLayoutProperties {}
                      horizontalAlignment: HorizontalAlignment.Center
                      verticalAlignment: VerticalAlignment.Top
                      preferredWidth: 20
                  }
  
                  Button {
                      id: button3
                      text: qsTr("button3")
                      layoutProperties: StackLayoutProperties {}
                      horizontalAlignment: HorizontalAlignment.Right
                      verticalAlignment: VerticalAlignment.Top
                      preferredWidth: 20
              }
          }
  }
  

  often I have my button to the location of horizontal line, but vertically, each button is on a different line...

  Is there someone who could tell me why?

  Thank you

  Container{
      layout: StackLayout{
      orientation: LayoutOrientation.LeftToRight
      horizontalAligment: HorizontalAligment.Fill
  
      Button{text: "One"}
      Button{text: "Two"}
      Button{text: "Three"}
  }
  

  She hope it helps

• I try to print, get the error message "Please enable setting"Enable bidirectional communication"in the printer properties dialog box.

  When I tried to print I got the message (please turn on the setting "enable bidirectional Communication" in the printer properties dialog box ") but I need to know how to do this.

  On the start menu, menu on the side right should be a button devices and printers, which will bring you to the page printers. There you can find your printer and right click on it and select Properties. This would be the place to enable two-way communication, but beyond that, I can't help you as I don't know what would the Properties window for your printer.

• How do you remove the watermark preset in the file > export dialog box?

  I'm new to Lightroom, but so far I like it. However, I'm trying to figure out how to remove the watermark preset in the file > export dialog box. I have some that are duplicates.

  Open the Preferences of Lightroom window and select the Presets tab click the button labeled "Show Lightroom Presets folder...". It will open a window of type OS containing folders. Find the folder named Lightroom and it contains, you should also find a subfolder named 'Watermarks'. Your presets watermark must be in this folder.

• question of remote server in the site Configuration dialog box.

  Hello

  I received client ftp information so that I can connect to its server to download files.

  The new CS5 box installation site is a bit different (hard)...

  I set up the folder on my desktop to download and set up the site (directions).

  Problem: under the "Servers" tab, there name address remote connection and tests... mine has two lines of info.

  The top one is my ftp from my personal site.

  Below, it is the only one that I created just to get the download and I gave her a false name.

  I have to remove the top? Because when I go to download it downloads files in my personal site - not customers. Or, should I uncheck "remote" from the top and activate at the bottom.

  I don't want to affect my site at all. Please explain how this new method works... How can I control + choose what server I want content to download from.

  I mean, if I had to remove this dialog box mine, then switch back to the my site dialog box, my connection to the remote server are deleted as well?

  Thank you!

  Too bad. I have it.

  I hesitated to experiment, but it seems that you can select a "remote" at the same time, so all I had to do was click on the customer.

• Completely disable the "Untrusted connection" dialog box

  I am a professional developer stuck behind a proxy at work. The behavior of this power of Attorney causes the SSL connection attempts get a certificate signed by my company, not the web site I try to connect to. I have no control over the proxy, so change this behaviour is out of the question.

  I need to use Firefox for a number of things and am generally fine adding exceptions for sites that I want to connect. However, some sites like github.com loading resources many other areas via SSL (CDN, Google Analytics, Gravatar, etc.). For these sites, I try to add exceptions in order to allow the company a signed, cert but I can only add to github.com, not any other sites, so even after adding an exception I'm brought back in the right to the page "this connection is untrusted". No matter how many times I try to grant a waiver, I never really get to github.com.

  Other browsers on my system are administered remotely and seem to be configured to automatically trust signed certs society. I need to know how to manually configure Firefox to always trust these certificates OR never shows me the unreliable connection dialog box and just maybe show red in the address bar when he does not trust the site cert.

  Apparently in OS X, there are at the level of the authorities of certification system. I don't know why it does not use Firefox, but I was able to export the CA company and import it in Firefox. Finally solved my problem.

• Use the own user dialog box

  Hello

  I want to use my own user dialog box at startup of the user interface. This dialog gets the user to a database of information and I'm not logging in twice.

  Is it possible, where can I disable the standard dialog box, where I should put my dialog box and what data should I send to TS.

  Using TS3.0 and LV8.2.1.

  schwede greetings

  Schwede-

  If you want to change the user login dialog box when you start TestStand, what you want to do is to change the sequence of LoginLogout in the sequence FrontEndCallbacks.seq file. Before editing, I recommend that you copy the folder \Components\NI\Callbacks\FrontEnd \Components\User\Callbacks in the Directory. Then, modify the files there. You want to replace the steps of connection and disconnection of the sequence of LoginLogout with your own steps that display your own personal dialog box.

  I hope this helps.

• Can not enter wildcard (*) in the file selection dialog box when opening a file

  It's something I've not seen before. I posted this question in the forum Autodesk AutoCad LT five days ago, but I got no answer at all. Because I'm not sure whether it is a Windows or a problem with Autocad, I thought I'll try to post here, too.

  On one of our AutoCad workstations, when you open a drawing, we cannot enter a wildcard character (*) in the file selection dialog box to help unravel the drawings.

  In other words, say there are 10 versions of a drawing with the number 5008. I should be able to enter the 5008 * and just see these ten designs. On this computer, when I try to type an asterisk (*), I get this error message: invalid character. The following characters are not allowed in file names: \ /: *? "<>

  Now, I know that they are not allowed... but I don't mean to create a file name. I'm just trying to classify them. On our other RTE Autocad workstations, the wildcard character works fine.  What's up with this one? Y at - it a setting or a variable that controls this?

  Thanks - Kevin

  Hello

  ·         The problem occurs with any other application?

  It may be some setting in Auto CAD, which raises the question, and its best you seek help from experts in DAO automatic.
