Is it possible to place a window to the front and keep it there?

I use desktop mode in Windows 8.

I used to be able to not only a right click to place at the front, which I can't find, but it has stop there, at least with the iTunes miniplayer. I don't know if this has been a feature of iTunes or something I could do with Windows.

Or the other of these things is possible?

Hello

It is 'possible' for a program to write so that it will stay, or at least trying to stay, in short
on the desktop. But this is not a function, you can enable in Windows. And this no doubt

only works on the office if at all in Windows 8/8.1.

There is Kiosk Mode/Assigned access but not practical for a multifunction computer.

  • Is it possible to have multiple windows of the same file open?

    Hello

    I was wondering if it is possible to have multiple windows of the same file open at the same time in Windows XP?

    Thank you!

    You're welcome, Dave. If you click directly on a file, it will be open only once.  That's why I gave an example of starting with work stations and by navigating to the folder (open indirectly).  You can access a the desktop folder in C:\Documents and Settings\\Desktop.

  • Is it possible to play different sounds for the emails and instant messages?

    Hello

    I was wondering if it was possible to play different sounds for the emails and instant messages. I use Thunderbird quite often with emails and instant messages imported from Gtalk.

    I think it would be very convenient to be able to distinguish the two sounds, because they do not involve the same things.

    Thank you very much.

  • Updated to firefox9 and now when I use extension of tree style tab the screen goes black, with the exception of the "window of the tab" and the part of the screen behind him

    Update firefox9. Using tree style tab extension. Everything works fine, except that my screen goes black when in 'tab window', with the exception of the window of the tab and the part of the screen behind him. Once out of the tab section everything comes back fine, but it is rather annoying. Checked homepage for the extension and have the updated version, firefox add-on page - it also says that it is compatible. Any ideas on that?

     Am realizing pages will stay on as long as I don't move the mouse,but as soon as I do move it,black goes the screen.
    

    Ok. A installed version 1.4? Manufacturers homepage. This is apparently what caused problems. Get rid of this and installed version 1.3? Since firefox add on the pages. Problems solved...

    tan7655,
    If I read this correctly, you have a portable computer that do not have an operating system on it.  You try to install Vista and get the error.
    You've restarted the Vista installation?  So then you get the same error? If you have tried to install more than once and continue to receive this error, check that the laptop is capable of Vista?  You may need to check with the manufacturer of the laptop to see if it is able to support Vista.

    original title: problem strange user

    Hello people out there... My problem is that I got on the computer of my wife which is a HP Pavilion with Vista home Premium. I myself put in place as long as the administrator and am the only user... However my wife's name still shows under the user folders, i.e. 'C:\User\jenny '. I went to the sections of the user to delete, but it does not appear, it shows me only... also when I try to delete the folder of the user, the delete option wonder if I want to delete my account... My folder is located on the right of the Start button with more programs from the main menu, but my wife is located under the main C: drive I obviously did something wrong when I set up my user account, but I have no idea... so if anyone of you people can help me, I would be very grateful... Thank you.

    If you change the name of an account, the name of the associated in C:\Users folder does not change. As far as I know, there is no way to change this.

  • Can I recover my old version of windows on the computer and use it on my old laptop?

    Original title: windows 8.

    Last year, I bought a new desktop computer Acer with windows 8 and installed my windows professional 8.1 on it!

    My question is! can I recover my old version of windows on the computer and use it on my old laptop because it was purchased with this PC AND how I to get it back?

    I am braking the rules by doing this? the original key was included with the purchase of my new Acer and I should be able to pick it up and install it on another device?

    If I can't, I'll have to buy a new one to upgrade my old windows laptop 7. I'm trying to save money! That's why I ask this question.

    Roger

    No, you cannot transfer the original license that is pre-installed on your Acer, it relates to it because it is an OEM license.

    The OEM of Windows 8 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

  • How place of content between the header and tabs?

    I have the header part which must be constant through the portal but below that I have 3 links
    as I AM an employee, employer, broker...

    which showed that in the homepage above the tabs...
    How can I do this...

    How place of content between the header and tabs...: () kindly help...

    Hey djo
    Try these approaches and see if it works.

    1. in the header Section, page footer you shell header and add a Portlet header. This JSP file associated header Portlet will be all static content in the upper part. In the lower part, add these 3 links say right. Show these links only based on certain properties of the query as isHome. Now for the main book House and another page associate a BackingFile. In this backup file in the lifecycle methods preRender or handlePostBack, get BookManager instance and all pages and see which page is active. For this page, see its page definition label which will be always unique. IF the page def label is like home_page_def (it is the wording of the page def you give to the homepage), then set the value of the key in the request as isHome = true property. The only doubt is after book backingfile is triggered, the header needs to be reloaded, because only then can he pick up the attributes of the request.

    2. create a new portlet as HomePageLinks portlet. Its title property is not Visible and other properties of the UI as NoBorder, etc. NoTheme. The associated JSP will be the 3 links you mentioned fixed right. You can use css styles to make it right. Now dropping this portlet in the header Shell box. You have already HeaderPortlet in the upper part, lower than that, you will have this portlet HomePageLinks. Now associate a backup file for this Portlet show, only if the current active page of books is the home page comparing the label def etc. as mentioned above.

    In both scenarios, only concern is when clicked on different Pages, the entire portal is to be made directly from the header at the top. Only then the backup file will be set the key and the portlet HomePageLinks can show or hide as a result.

    Try to raise an event when the user clicks on the homepage. This port listening for that event can be HomePageLinks Portlet. I guess the event mechanism should work regardless of where the portlet is placed. In the event listner, see if you can show/hide this portlet.

    The only challenge is reloaded must section header whenever you click on a tab.

    Start putting a few files of backup and System.out.printlns to see if the header section gets recharged on, click on the tabs.

    These are just my thoughts on the top of my head. Other users of the forum may have better alternatives or a different version of the above approaches.

    Thank you

  • Opening an external link using javascript.  Keeping the new window to the front

    I display a picture from an external link when it is called my swf.  When the user clicks a button, place appears a corresponding picture in a new browser window.  After the picture window is open, if the user clicks another button, that the photo browser update but its is no longer at the front.  I know that I need to use the focus() command but can not understand how to integrate it in my AS3 code.

    var req=new URLRequest();
    
    function scrollPanePopulate(event:Event){     
         //create the temp variables
         var calledPhoto=pntxml.row[pointindex].PhotoUrl;

         var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("javascript:" + jscommand +"void(0);"); navigateToURL(url, "_self"); 
    }
