Cannot select task or menu items

InDesign CS5, Vista operating system

I can choose most of the elements with my mouse pointer, but not all.  Cannot select the direct Selection tool, of the text elements in the bar of menus and clickable elements in signs, a lot of things.  Tried to replace preferences of the application as suggested here, but no.

I'm new to ID and am treading forward here.  Any help would be most appreciated!

TIA,

Brian

  • Cannot create the custom menu item

    I feel that I'm missing something simple here.  Use the examples in the documentation for the BB developer, I am unable to get a custom menu item is displayed on a BB application menu in a simulator.

    More precisely:

    I copied the code for ContactsDemo (on page 31 of the PDF Advanced Developer) subjects, and works very well in the Simulator.

    I then copied the code for DemoAppMenuItem (from page 86 of the same doc).  It seems to work very well - no errors, and it appears in the Downloads folder on the Simulator.  But no custom menu item appears on the simulator when I create a new Contact, and then return to view it.

    I have all three options checked in Workspace Blackberry > Blackberry JDE > Code signing.

    My environment is:

    Eclipse 3.4.2

    BlackBerry JDE plugin 1.0.0.67 Eclipse

    I tried it with two simulators 4.5 and 4.6.

    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

    Thanks for the references page - this is a great compilation of resources!

    I don't know why the sample code of the documentation of EDGE does not work, but I was able to get the custom display menu item using the code I found this message on the forum.

    3. find the Bing and extended support to search toolbar in the list and then click on disable for each of them. ' - but what and where exactly is - this?

    At the top of the screen is only an icon of Yahoo to the left and to the right of it, a search box, 'Web search', 'My Apps,' Yellow Pages,""Weather","Updates"and"Skype ". to the right of the people, there is a green cross saying "add more applications. to your toolbar"and to the right of this one kind of gear shift looking icon saying"toolbar settings ".
    So, in short, how can I get rid of the Bing screen and how to access these tools?
    Thank you.

    Versions of Firefox 3.6 + have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.

    Press the Alt key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open view > toolbars and select menu bar, so it has a check mark.

    The F10 can also be used on most PCs to temporarily reveal the menu bar.

  • the menu items have _1 add to get a selection of used Menu

    I read in the text of a spreadsheet file and I create menu items to aid insertion of Menu items.  The menu looks very good.  I click on the menu and I can't see the following:

    My Menu

    Section A

    Item B

    Point C

    I use get a selection of menus to see one that the user has selected.  When the user selects the element B the element tag of me returned by get a selection of Menu says "Point B_1" the same for the other choices.

    I've been using get a Menu selection for a long time without problem.  The only difference here is that some of the items in my Menu also appear in my Menu others.  Is it possible that the element tags must be unique on all menus? And if so, how do I get around this?

    David Lieberman says:

    Is it possible that the element tags must be unique on all menus?

    Yes. This is specified using LabVIEW.

    And if so, how do I get around this?

    You can not. They must be unique. You can always set the tags yourself. As long as they are unique.

  • View submenu items and stay showed when the menu item is selected

    The documentation is not clear with my question and some videos are not up-to-date.

    Let's say I have 3 menu items, A, B, C with 2 elements submenu under B (B-1 and B-2). When I mouse over B, I see 2 submenu items. When I click on B and select the B-1 or B - 2 submenu item, the corresponding page is displayed but I wish that the submenu to stay visible until I select another menu as A or C. How can I do? Thank you.

    This is the default behavior, you must customize this or you can use compositions for the creation of menu where hide none can be configured for the target container.

  • menu of hyperlink is displayed when text is selected, not when the Menu item is selected. And of course does not display the available links. Where I'm wrong?

    Try to make hyperlinks in a menu item. If I select the menu item, the menu of hyperlinks is not displayed in the menu bar. If I click on new and then the tex in the link is selected, the hyperlink menu appears but the drop down menu does not offer the available links. Where I'm wrong?

    I think you use a menu by default on the page?

    It's design of menu by default, because they are already linked with the respective pages that you can't change.

    You can try to create the menu manual.

  • Plus all the menu items are dimmed in AE CC I cannot create a new project or start

    Hey all,.

    I'm working on a Mac mini with all specifications maximum (not the version of the server). I opened AE CC for the first time and I can't do anything except close or exit the application. All my menu items are grayed out.

    When I started it upward it tells me that I should update CUDA, so I did it and it is still not allow me to choose menu items. Help, please! O Yes, I'm running Mavericks!

    I'll be watching this thread today so let me know if you need to know more about me.

    DO NOT install Cuda, because there is not a single Mac Mini that has a compatible card NVIDIA CUDA. Installation of CUDA will be completely foul up your machine.

    Second, be careful the program names. You have opened the rendering engine of the effects after no After Effects. Looks like you're very new. Please, start here: basic workflow. If you do not take the time to go through basic training you'll be completely frustrated with AE and assume that it is working properly.
