My search bar is messed up after update. I want the old drop-down list back. I can't get anything now. Firefox is absolutely useless for me now.

Update of the Firefox software appeared. I allowed him to be installed. He wrecked the bar/search box. I use to be able to click on the magnifying glass icon and ALL options would seem the search engine and I could easily chose a. It has been easy. Now, nothing. I can't find anything through Firefox. Firefox is useless to me now, which means I have no computer. I have to go out and spend another $ 1,000 to get a new computer? This is not good. You shouldn't do that to a person. Not everyone is technically advanced that some of you are. Now, I have no means to look for anything with Firefox. I really liked Firefox. Now your a software update messed me all this. So what should I do? IE is worthless. Not sure, not sure, can not trust him. Never works right. May not print correctly. Update Firefox shouldn't have messed up my computer. I need to search and now I can't. I mean, it's really not good. So, just for you called brilliant Stanford types, when I click on the magnifying glass icon or the small, inverted triangle, there is nothing. The search bar is empty. White, white. Is no longer the quick menu drop-down window with all of the available selections of search engine. I have it? That's why I told myself. Have a real nice day!

See this article to find out how the new search bar works - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/search-bar-add-change-manage-search-engines-firefox

If you want that the old regime back for that search bar.
Open Subject: config (typed in the address bar) and turn this false preference
browser.search.showOneOffButtons
Then restart Firefox.

  • How to make the menu drop-down list with a scroll bar

    Hello

    I have a drop-down list that is filled with different table sizes.

    I have a size of 30-element array.  Some of the last items just go off the screen at the bottom of the Simulator PB.

    Is it possible for me to add a drop-down scroll bar?

    DP = new DropDown();
    dp.rowHeight = 24;
    DP.prompt = "stuff";
    DP. Height = 34;
    DP.width = 230;
    DP.x = TitleTB.x + 170;
    DP.y = Title.y-3;
    addChild (dp);

    Some of the tables look like this-

    case 'List 1':
    dp.rowCount = 2;
    for (var i: int = 0; i<2;>
    {
    if(i==0)
    {
    DPP.splice (0);
    DPP.unshift({label:"blahblah"});)
    }
    else if (i == 1) {}
    DPP.unshift({label:"foofoo"});)
    }
    }
    dp.dataProvider = new DataProvider (dpp);
    addChild (dp);
    break;

    case "List2":
    dp.rowCount = 30;
    for (var n: int = 0; n<30;>
    {
    if(n==0)
    {
    DPP.splice (0);
    DPP.unshift({label:"lalalala"});)
    }
    Else if (n == 1) {}

    **********

    Delete the existing table using splice (0);

    then I add the new array of labels.

    Before, when I didn't have the splice (0), I only had the .unshift () and sometimes got bays combined together and a scroll bar appears automatically in the Simulator.  But then the berries were mixed.

    Thanks for the help!

    Hey mlin13,

    from the looks of it, your property rowCount is set too high. the rowCount property represents the number of lines displayed on the screen when the drop down menu is open. so if the number of rows is less than the amount of items on the list, it will create a scroll bar with a drop-down list for you. try to set the number of lines to a default value of 10 and and keep it manipulate your list from there. and see if you get the desired results. Good luck!

  • Remove the new drop-down list menu search entirely (again!)?

    Since the upgrade to 43.0.1, there is a small window to appear whenever I type in the search bar, just like how it was there are several versions (see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1035637 for the previous issue). I have suggestions search disabled, and I have browser.search.showOneOffButtons set to False in topic: config. How to make this new drop-down window disappear?

    "browser.search.showOneOffButtons" was a temporary pref from Firefox 34. The underlying code that have supported this preference is gone like Firefox 43.

  • update of a drop-down list of QML from C++ fails the first time

    Hey gang,

    I have a function in my C++ class that seeks a couple of drop downs by ObjectName and their Options adds.

    the feature works well - except that when the application first starts, the function cannot find the menu drop-down, then the drop-down list is empty.  At various times during the execution of the application, it refreshes the drop-down list and those all great works.  It is only on the first attempt when the application first starts it fails.

    Here's the function:

    void WorkManager::updateDropDown() {
    //  qWarning() << "WorkManager::updateDropDown(), running..";
    /*
     * this function updates the two drop down lists in the UI
     * it updates them dynamically with the taskName() ('label') of the job.
     * NOTE: for some reason, this doesn't find the dropdown's by name on first start.  however subsequent runs work fine.
     */
        int i = 0;
        QList  myObjects = m_model->toListOfObjects();
        DropDown * dpList = bb::cascades::Application::instance()->scene()->findChild("scriptListDropDown");
        DropDown * logDpList = bb::cascades::Application::instance()->scene()->findChild("logDropDown");
        if (dpList != 0 && logDpList !=0 ) {
            dpList->removeAll();
            logDpList->removeAll();
            for (i = 0; i < myObjects.size(); i++) {
                Task * myTask = static_cast (myObjects[i]);
                myTask->setParent(this);
                dpList->add(Option::create().text(myTask->taskLabel()).value(myTask->command()));
                logDpList->add(Option::create().text(myTask->taskLabel()).value(myTask->taskName() + ".log"));
            }
        } else  {
    //      qWarning() << "WorkManager::updateDropDown(), ---> dpList was 0, try again";
        }
    }
    

    so when the application starts, I get this message of qWarning() and dpList (and logDpList) are both 0.

    I tried the dissemination of calls to this function in various places at the same time the C++ class, so in onCreationCompleted() different signals in the QML IU - as for the homepage, TabbedPane, drop-down menus.

    No matter where and when I call, I can't get the drop-down list to provide information on the first try.

    is there a way to find a way to make this work?  It's (quite) a little annoying.  I wish that the onCreationCompleted() for the drop-down list would work, but alas, no joy.

    Help?

    Thank you!

    J

    Quite simply, if the object is not in the scene tree, you will get a result of findChild. It has not been created or added to the scene.

    You say that you did above in onCreationCompleted of a drop-down list, but this would only guarantee that one of your drop-down menus has been created and your conditional statement requires that both happening simultaneously be non-null. You must run the above, when the two objects are created.

    It seems that you can split the above function to manage separately, the dpList and logDpList after the onCreationCompleted of signals for each drop-down list.

    Note: If you run findChild on the user interface of your entire application, your application has a serious design flaw.

  • When I try to click on my gmail and web addresses in the drop-down list of web addresses for twitter, it will not let me or redirects to a google search

    I type in "gm", and he shows up with my gmail link, but also other sites that I visit that start with "gm", but when I click on the gmail address in the menu drop-down list, nothing happens or it redirects to a google search for gm. It happens only with gmail and twitter so far. No idea how to solve this problem?

    One possible cause is a problem with the places.sqlite file that stores the bookmarks and history.

  • How can we change the visibility of the drop-down list after its creation?

    I create a QML document with three drop-down lists.  Depending on how "trans_type" is selected, only to drop Extra should be displayed.  If the option "account" is selected, the drop-down list is visible and the DD category is hidden.  The reverse is true if the 'category' option is selected.

    Here's how I build my QML document:

    void Testing::updateFields()
    {
        if (m_form.isNull())
            return;
    
        // Clear all fields from the form
        m_form->removeAll();
    
        // Clear the internal mapping
        m_fields.clear();
    
        //get the transaction page ready
        QmlDocument *qml = QmlDocument::create("asset:///transaction.qml").parent(this);
    
        DropDown* trans_type = qml->createRootObject();
        trans_type = DropDown::create().title("Transaction Type");
        trans_type->add(Option::create().text("Accounts").value("0"));
        trans_type->add(Option::create().text("Categories").value("1"));
        trans_type->setSelectedIndex(0);
        connect(trans_type, SIGNAL(selectedIndexChanged (int)), this, SLOT(onDDChange(int)));
        m_form->add(trans_type);
    
        DropDown* account_dd = qml->createRootObject();
        account_dd = DropDown::create().title("Account");
        account_dd->add(Option::create().text("No Account").value("0"));
        //... code to populate account drop down here...
        account_dd->setSelectedIndex(0);
        m_form->add(account_dd);
    
        DropDown* category_dd = qml->createRootObject();
        category_dd = DropDown::create().title("Category").visible(false);
        category_dd->add(Option::create().text("No Category").value("0"));
        //... code to populate category drop down here...
        category_dd->setSelectedIndex(0);
        m_form->add(category_dd);
    
    }
    

    Everything is displayed properly on the page.  onDDChange is called and it shows a Toast that the option has been selected.  Here is what I currently have in onDDChange:

    void Testing::onDDChange(const int &info)
    {
        QString msg = "Switched To: ";
        if(info == 0) {
            msg = msg + "Account";
        } else if(info==1) {
            msg = msg + "Category";
        } else {
            msg = msg + "Unrecognized";
        }
        showToast(msg);
    }
    

    I can't figure out how to get the drop down lists to be visible/hidden depending on the needs.  There is a function "setVisible()" for the drop, but I can not understand how to operate without the app crashing.  http://developer.BlackBerry.com/Cascades/reference/bb__cascades__dropdown.html#function-setVisible-v...

    My questions are:

    1. How can I change the visibility of the appropriate dropdown lists in a different function when the status of the main drop-down list is changed?

    2. is there a way to define an id for drop-down lists?  If not, how am I supposed to go into the drop-down lists in a variable later so I can receive their value or change the visibility?

    Any help would be great.  I've been struggling with this for a while.

    There are a number of methods you could use signals and slots between your code and the QML or something simple is assign "objectName" as a property, then this search in C++.

    http://developer.BlackBerry.com/Cascades/documentation/dev/integrating_cpp_qml/

    Something like

    DropBox db = mRootContainer->findChild("dropboxname");
    db->setVisible(true);

  • When I type in the address bar the first option on the menu drop-down is always of the form 'visit' or 'search' How do I prevent these from appearing?

    Until typing today on behalf of the part of a site or a page that is shown a list of suggestions from my previous navigation. However, since installed 43, the first option is now either visit: xxxx, which is always a site, never a page, or when the string does not have a page it goes to the research: what I just typed.

    I would like to disable this, but I am struggling to find the solution for it.

    Can someone point me in the right direction please?

    You can set browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete to false to remove the suggestion of visit page from the drop-down list.

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

    So I have to change the default to Google Maps then back to Google to search for one.

    I have it! It's the topic: config "hiddenoneoffs" where the 3 elements of google, maps and mcafee have been included. There was no space between Google and maps. I put one in from Google Maps.
