How to add "Look it up in lexicon" to the context menu?

Hi all! The title says it is in fact... When I highlight a word in a text donnΘ, is possible to add an item to the context menu - > search in the lexicon or Contextual menu - > Services - > search in the lexicon (or whatever it may be called).

I mean by local "lexicon" built in the dictionary as part of Mac OS (El Capitan in my case).

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Try to open system preferences > keyboard, look in the tab shortcuts.

Title services in the sidebar, there should be a section 'search' with an option to activate the context menu item 'search in the dictionary'. Allow it to appear in the right click menu "contextual".

p.s. This is an earlier operating system, it may have changed.

  • How to add "Add to Windows Media Player list" to the context Menu of the specific file types

    I use Windows XP Professional 64-bit and I can't understand how to do this, even after hours of reading on google.

    When I right click. MP3 files or. AVI files, they give the option to context menu "Add to Windows Media Player list" but other files that I wish it would show for such as. MKV or. AAC, I can't show him for. I have searched everywhere in the windows registry and cannot for the life of understand me this.

    It works perfectly well and appears on our windows vista computer and the old 32-bit windows xp computer, but it does not appear on my new current.

    How I'd go about adding this choice "Add to Windows Media Player list" when I right click on. MKV and. AAC files?

    If possible, I would like to do this without having to install any software. I don't have a problem with the registry change and prefer it if possible.

  • How to add a pop-up window to set the date and time in a field

    How to add a pop-up window to set the date and time in a field? I know how to add the date. I create the field time with JavaScript event initialize like this:

    this.rawValue = num2date(date(), DateFmt(4));
    

    What I should change the script and the motive to do it properly.

    I changed the Format of data (object > link tab) date time but nothing happen. I want to set up a pop-up window as for the setting of date but with addition of time setting.

    Is this possible? Or that the date fixed like that? Should I get hour hand?

    Hello

    I don't think you will get both in the calendar popup. Basically, the popup calendar is the default behavior. It may be possible to develop a custom component, but it would take a bit of scripting and would probably not be worth the effort.

    I'd get the user to time manually entry in a separate field.

    Good luck

  • How to add commands to the context menu for the types of files (add associations)?

    I would like to download anime and re - encode standard dvd (mpeg2) format before you burn it to a DVD for better quality.  I have a program suite that supports the grunt work, but to do a contextual menu command that calls the original batch file that the user must manually add it to the menu of context by file association.  I found that I can access the menus of file associations, but the option to add a new association with an existing file type does not seem to exist.  Is there a registry entry, I need to change or add to allow me to customize my context menus in Windows 7?

    Create a text file (make sure you have the framework where you DO NOT hide known file extensions unmarked)

    Change the new text file... Copy the following: [quote]

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11. AssocFile.AVI\shell\Queue for encoding]
    @= "& Queue for encoding.

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11. AssocFile.AVI\shell\Queue for Encoding\command]
    "@="c:\\dvdstudio\\scripts\\Queue.bat \"%1\"

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11. AssocFile.MP4\shell\Queue for encoding]
    @= "& Queue for encoding.

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\WMP11. AssocFile.MP4\shell\Queue for Encoding\command]
    "@="c:\\dvdstudio\\scripts\\Queue.bat \"%1\"

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CCCP. WMP. AssocFile.MKV.1\shell\Queue for encoding]

    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CCCP. WMP. AssocFile.MKV.1\shell\Queue for Encoding\command]
    "@="c:\\dvdstudio\\scripts\\Queue.bat \"%1\"

    [/ quote]

    Save the text file..., rename the text file with the .reg extension

    Double-click the new registry file to add the context menu commands to your registry... everything is done! :)

  • Add the "Print Directory Listing" option to the context menu of Windows Explorer

    Get the error message when you try to use the "Print Directory Listing" solution found in:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321379/en-us on my new Windows 7 system (from February 2010).

    Could create the context menu of Windows Explorer for the task, but selecting just results in the following error message:

    "This file doesn't have an associatd with her program to perform this action. Please install a program or... to create an association in the default programs control panel. »

    Wentback and checked my Regedit work.  Even deleted the new key and she recreated (just in case.)

    NOTE: I had successfully used the instructions in this article to add "Print Directory Listing features on Windows XP systems, so I reviewed these instructions to see differences and noticed that it * no. * 'associate' step for Vista/Win7 in the article, but this step still shown for XP.»

    And, there seems to be NO WAY to associate a program (in this case, a ".bat") with all of 'record' as target.  Only choices I see these in the 'control panel default programs ' are'. [extensions] "and the protocols.

    So I'm puzzled.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    I just tried this with instructions to the http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321379/en-us link you provided and it worked fine.

    In view of the error you get here are my assumptions to what may be the problem.  Please try these out and answer:

    -Because it denounces, "file doesn't have an associated program.." I would make sure that when you created with Notepad the file .bat you na not to create a file called 'Printdir.bat.txt' or 'Printdir.bat.some_bad_extension '.  If your Windows Explorer settings are set to hide file extensions when you look at a file name, then maybe the REAL file extension you give the command file is being hidden on your part and Windows does not know how to open a file with the extension hidden type.  Make sure that you can see all the file extensions and make sure that the batch file is named with the .bat extension.

    -If you see very well all the file extensions in Windows Explorer and your file is called really Printdir.bat, make sure that you have saved in your root directory of Windows.  If you access %windir% you see Printdir.bat inside there?  If this isn't the case, put it there.  If you do, when you double-click the .bat file Windows run without error and print the dir?  If it works, you know that the batch file works correctly.

    -There's a typing error in the instructions for Vista/Windows 7, check that your registry entries look like this:

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Print directory Listing\command

    This shows the new key under shell called "Print Directory Listing" and inside this key/folder another folder/key named "command".

    To within the key/folder 'command', it takes only one entrance with the name of (by default).  Double-click (default) and make sure that its value data is set to:

    Printdir.bat %1

    -You shouldn't need step "the associate" in Windows 7.

    -You can add "Add Print Directory Listing to the context menu of Windows Explorer" for the title of your question so that others can find it.

  • Problem VLC media player - option of the context menu "add to vlc media player playlist" disappear in the selection of multiple files.

    OK, here's my problem. I installed VLC. It works very well. I have 'Add to playlist in vlc meadia player' on the pop-up menu file.

    PROBLEM: If I select more than 16 files and then "Add to vlc meadia Player playlist" disappear from the file context menu.

    ANNOYING: This stupid Windows Media Player is still there.

    QUESTION: Why vlc disappear from the file context menu if I select more then 16 files but wmp doesn't?  Is M$ trying to force people to use WMP?

    I also did my OWN program and he added in the context menu, and I discovered that my OWN program has also 16 files limit.

    Why windows deletes non MS program context menu, if I select more than 16 files? How can I solve this problem? I want to have my custom context menu program, even if I select more than 16 files.

  • How to remove the context menu buttons?

    Hello

    I have a pretty annoying problem. I have installed GNU Emacs and Emacs W32 some time ago, but spent to vim. However, in the menu context (context menu) for any file text (.txt, .c or .java) it is always an option called "Edit with Emacs." Now, obviously I no longer use Emacs and uninstalled several months ago. However, I can't get rid of this option in the registry. When I click on it now it opens the 'Open with' instead.
    Anyone know how to remove this option from the context menu?
    Thank you!

    Take a look at the app ShellMenuView. See http://www.techspot.com/guides/210-edit-windows-extended-context-menu/ for instructions and download.

  • How to display the context menu on MAF google map?

    Hi all

    How to show the popup on the google map of the MAF like this? I have a collection of data would appear on the map of google map MAF, but when I click on the screen, I find the popup seems just on the Middle not the style shows as below.

    So I want to know if there is a way to identify the points on the map as the model below. Could you give me some suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    Screen Shot 2014-12-30 at 1.37.23 PM.png

    Byron

    This is supported only from MAF version 2.0.1

    You can use showpopupbehavior within a marker like this:

    shortDesc = "#{row.cityName} '"

    rendering = "true" >

    popupId = "popup1."

    alignId = "marker1 '.

    align = 'topCenter.

    decoration = "anchor" / >

    You can change line property based on your condition.

    In addition, you may need to add the setPropertyListener inside marker as well as to show the current name of the city from the context menu:

    to = "#{pageFlowScope.currentCity} '"

    type = 'action' / >

    Kind regards

  • What happened to the context menu item 'Add album artwork' in iTunes 12.4?

    I love the new version 12.4 (return of the sidebar). What happened to the item of the context menu add album work?

    Someone tell me where to find it.

    If the command get Album artwork , it has not seem to be an equivalent command in the menu bar that applies to only one song (or a selection of songs).  Not in the main menu bar or anywhere else.  The command in the menu bar to file-> library-> Get Album artwork is available, but this action applies to your entire library.

    However, if you put your music library in the Albums view (to display the view with the album 'tiles' of the work in a grid), I noticed you pouvez with right-click an album and get the cover.  I think that this applies to all the songs on the selected album (or albums).  I guess that's "a" logical, given that missing album art are generally for all the songs on the album.

  • How can I remove a program from the context menu?

    Some time ago I uninstalled ClamXav.

    When I right click on something to bring up the context menu, I have the option to Scan with ClamXav.

    I searched for this in the spotlight (and assistance to locate in the terminal - do not know if this uses the same Spotlight search criteria).

    Anyway, there are no references.

    Anyone know how I can get rid of this in the menu?

    Of course, it doesn't have an impact, it's just quite annoying to see the option there.
