Sections of drop-down menus that overlap on office remain partially visible on office permanently

I am running Firefox 15.0.1, Windows 7 Professional X 64, with (important) the Windows 7 Basic theme with a solid desktop color. Whenever a drop down menu (e.g. bookmarks) extends below the bottom of the Firefox window, overlapping on the desktop, and you click outside this menu (do not select an article), the section of the menu on the desktop is visible, even after closing Firefox. If the Firefox window is placed so that the menu displays above this window, by clicking on following erases everything on the menu except this small section superimposed as the bar of Firefox window's caption.

This behavior does not occur with other applications, for example Thunderbird, programs Office, etc. It is reproducible on a W7 Home Premium X 64 machine, but not on a XP machine with a similar appearance (solid color) Office. If the installation of W7 is changed to one of the Aero themes (Windows 7, Architecture, landscapes, etc.), the problem goes away. It seems to me to apply to the basic and high contrast themes (to a greater extent or less), especially when a strong desktop color is in question, but as mentioned above, only with Firefox. With these themes, if a bitmap image is used (e.g. with standard Windows 7 Basic), then only the edge of Firefox window don't are not "refreshed".

Try disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Drop-down menus are mutually exclusive

    Hi all:

    I am working on a form in which I need to have a user rates four items 1 to 4 compared to the other. Initially, we were going to use 4 drop downs each menu containing four options allowing the user to choose. The problem is, of course, that the user could choose option 1 four times in a row. So I need a way to allow the user to assess these four points 1 to 4, but in a mutually exclusive way. the image below shows the problem (they are in Spanish, but the text is not important). Here point 1 and section 4 have been selected both as 1, which is what we want to avoid. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Hello

    You could have a script of the event preOpen all of the four drop-down menus that would set the display settings, based on the previous selections in the other drop-down menus.

    There is an example here to populate the drop-down menus: http://assure.ly/jcTahK.

    Try this in the DropDownList1 preOpen event:

    Remove the previously selected items

    this.deleteItem (DropDownList2.selectedIndex);

    this.deleteItem (DropDownList3.selectedIndex);

    this.deleteItem (DropDownList4.selectedIndex);

    Hope that helps,

  • Flash drop-down menus

    I am creating a site that has flash in drop-down menus that are sitting in the first row of a table. In the second row is a large graphical banner - the banner is different for each of the eight sections of the site.

    I could put the banner in my menus and create 8 different files flash for menus, but this clearly isn't the way to do it. As I see it, I have two choices:

    1. find a way to easily win the menus drop "over" the chart. I played with the wmode = "transparent" setting but I can't seem to make it work. I publish my movie with a transparent window and then place it in the first row of the table. He stillpushes the second way to graph of line to the bottom of the page. I must be missing something.

    2. combine the menus and the graphic banner (my preference because it would allow me to make the banner look better with a touch of animation). I'd then 8 records and 8 versions of the menus... bad. Can I integrate a single file menu flash in 8 different flash animations so that the menus don't load only once. In addition, these inevitable changes are to be made to a single file.

    I'd appreciate your comments.

    Thank you
    Sam

    1. the file will occupy the dimensions, there an amovie of s, so the wmode service to make the background transparent.  You will probably need to put the Flash in a div which floats at the z above the table level, together with the transparent wmode.

    2. There are a variety of options.

    You can create the menu as a separate swf and load it into each swf banner.  Which will result in a menu swf and some number of banner SWF.

    You could have a menu-banner swf that dynamically load some image there on the page that it is.  You can use FlashVars to indicate what image load for this page.

    You could do a little of both... have a menu swf and have a swf banner that loads the menu and load the image on the page it is on.

  • Update the drop-down menus and jQuery sortable collide with the 16.0.2

    The drop-down menus that are contained in a table sortable jquery act as if they are disabled. By clicking on them, doesn't matter. I can tab in the menu drop down and control it with the arrow keys, but the mouse does nothing. The menus outside of the table still work very well. This problem only occurs in Firefox 16.0.2 on several computers, all equipped with Windows 7. The problem does not occur in IE9, Chrome or Safari. In addition, the problem does not occur in Firefox 15, but it occurs in Firefox 17 Beta. I did not see anything addressing this specific issue, so I guess this isn't a known issue.

    The problem has been resolved.

  • After that update to the drop-down menus v24/25 arrested will appear incorrectly, I reported it 3 times, when will fix it you?

    I use a completely updated version of Windows 64 bit on a new ASUS laptop. I've updated to version 24 [IIRC 12] FF and browse the drop-down menus are not displayed correctly. They also testify anyway altered, too big or too small. When I run in safe mode, they work very well. I disabled all extensions and plugins and the problem persists. I have reset FF and the problem persists. It is usually a invalid parameter is passed to a routine and a mistake that should not be happening on not one but 2 versions [24 and 25].

    Safe mode also disables the use of Firefox hardware acceleration of graphics. This method works around the graphics card driver incompatibilities. You should try it in normal mode and see if it helps.

    You will need to restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

    In the mini ' General' tab, uncheck the box for "use hardware acceleration when available.

    If you restart Firefox, is the problem solved (or at least enhanced)?

  • Button check that several drop down menus are not the default submit

    Hi all

    I create a form that has several drop down menus and add a submit button that checks on Mouseup executes the following code. I need it so that they are not yet on the default value and they chose something different otherwise she will not submit.

    Instance field 'UserDepartment' has the value default of ' Select Department: "I added the checked for 3 of the drop down menus far, but no matter what I choose always travels and don't pop up with an alert, even if the default is selected.

    What I am doing wrong? I have read several other issues, but for me (no experience), it seems fine.

    var v = this.getField("UserDepartment").value;
    var v2 = this.getField("UserRole").value;
    var v3 = this.getField("ManagerRole").value;
    if (v == "Select Department:")

    To make it replace the first two lines of your code with this:

    var f = this.getField ("UserDepartment");

    If (f.valueAsString is f.defaultValue)

    If it still does not work, you will need to share the file with us for more

  • Drop-down menus does not open. Click right box will not appear.

    Hello!

    Yesterday, I was working on the Wix site. I noticed that when I tried to do a right click to copy and paste text box never showed up. I realized then, on other sites, in the drop down menus would not open (as the ones where you select your State, etc.). I can't turn on the bar menu at the top of Firefox with the ALT key, but when I click Tools or anything else, the box does not fall down. Same thing for my bookmarks and menu of frequently used buttons. My right click works fine when I'm not online. I really like to use Firefox and hope that there is a better solution than to switch to a different browser. I use Firefox at work and it's there.

    Please let me know if you need more information.

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables certain parameters, disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    • In previous versions of Firefox, click on the Firefox button in the upper left of the Firefox window and click help (or click on help in the Menu bar, if you do not have a Firefox button) and click on restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

  • Drop-down menus and scroll bar does not work

    I had a lap top 8 windows based perflectly until about a week ago, when I download updates for windows 8: when I started to scroll to the bottom of the window, as soon as I stopped by pressing my left click of the mouse, the scroll bar would automatically scroll to the top. I scroll down again and it automatically scrolls to the top of the page again. Similarly, this problem occurs with the help of the drop-down menus, it's not appear or deploy in a flash that won't let you point any option.

    This is to occur with all the drop down menus: on internal programs as well as in the internet sites. Even the menus on this assignment window, refers to windows 7, as the first choice and I cannot change. The problem is the WINDOWS 8 and its updates.

  • «"You want to enlarge the fonts in the drop-down menus, especially for" view all bookmarksbookmarks»

    The fonts are really small in the bookmark drop down menus.

    There is a Firefox extension that allows you to enlarge the fonts in the menu and toolbar. You could give this a try and see if it works for bookmarks, too:

    https://addons.Mozilla.org/firefox/addon/theme-font-size-changer/

    Its button usually appears towards the end of the main toolbar once you install it. Once you have finished defining the desired font size, you can take the bar button using the personalization feature. See: Customize Firefox commands, buttons, and toolbars.

  • Drop-down menus blink and are not accessible.

    Multi-site blink drop-down menus and are not accessible. Why? I tried to restart and will by default nothing helps. This will not occur in Internet Explorer.

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

    Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.

    Uninstall your current version of Firefox, if possible, the settings in the software security and cleaning of the Windows registry.

    • Do NOT remove the data personal when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because all profile files will be deleted and you will lose all personal data such as bookmarks and passwords from other versions of Firefox profiles.

    Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but make sure that 'delete personal data' is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
