Why isn't reveal.js slide notes mode advancing fragments? - fragment

I have been working on some slides using reveal.js, and they're being hosted on gh-pages. I have encountered a strange problem that I was hoping someone could help with.
Looking at my slides, I hit "s" to enter Slide Notes mode. The window appears correctly, the timer starts, and all that good stuff. The presentation and slide notes windows stay in sync when it comes to advancing to the next slide at the right time.
The problem is that when I advance the slides hoping to show the next fragment, the fragments advance ONLY in the window that has focus. In other words, if I focus on the Slide Notes window and hit the right key, then the slide notes window correctly shows the next fragment but the presentation does not; if I focus on the Presentation window and hit the right key, then the presentation correctly shows the next fragment but the slide notes do not.
Does anyone have any ideas about what might be wrong?

Loading and jumping app icon for a long time

When I start Visual Code, the logo in the menu bar starts to move left and right iteratively for a long time. I think it's loading something. How can I see what is going on there and what the reason for this?

Scrolling has broken in the eclipse

I use SW4STM32 (Neon.3 Release (4.6.3)) and at some point in time scrolling stopped working in the text editor when using the mouse wheel. CTRL+ mouse wheel works fine, but it doesn't fit at all, because it scrolls too much.
Please tell me where it is configured, I searched the entire menu and did not find it.

How to fix tab key in VS Code to the code editor window only

When editing code and I hit TAB I expect the typical 4 spaces to be inserted and the cursor to move. In VS Code, if I hit TAB it takes me to the ... in the upper right of the application, tab again it goes to the Open Editors. Its like TAB is jumping around the editor instead of tabbing into my document.
How does one fix that. Or was a setting changed?
At the bottom of the application, I noticed a Tabs move Focus was lit. I clicked it and it turned off. Not sure how it turned on or what turns it on, but if I click it off, tabs go back to normal. Strange.

Stop GTK from dragging the window when grabbed by background

I'm using GTK on Linux. (Both GTK2 and GTK3 exhibit this behavior.)
When you grab the window on some free space or menubar, the window itself gets dragged.
I'm using the window as a giant OpenGL canvas, and this prevents the primary mouse button presses from ever reaching the window. Double-clicks and secondary button presses arrive just fine.
How do I disable or work around this behavior? I've also tried adding a GtkDrawingArea to the window, but it still gets dragged.
This is not possible. GTK overrides the function of primary mouse button unconditionally. However, simply adding an empty GtkLabel to the window worked just well for me.
Edit: eventually I just used a GtkDrawingArea, because I also wanted a scroll/menubar. That works just as well.
Gtk does grab unconditionally, but you have full control of what that specific "click" will do.
Returning True from any "button-xxx" method will stop further processing from Gtk. See "Return type" here.

Stop Layout Options icon appearing by default on callouts in Word 2013

This is driving me mad! I love the new layout options in Word 2013, but when a callout gets to a certain size the icon for it obscures the end of the arrow, and you can't move the arrow:
Don't suppose anyone knows either how to get rid of the icon, how to click and drag on the yellow end of the arrow, or how to stop the icon appearing in the first place?
Thanks in advance.
Here are two answers that helped me. The second option gets rid of the floating Layout Options button, but at the cost of disabling some features of Word 2013.
First Option:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-word/any-way-to-disable-the-layout-options-button/47f6af4a-2acd-483e-a953-6415c8530554
It might help to increase the zoom (use the slider at the right end of the status bar) while you work with the picture.
Second Option:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-word/layout-options-icon-word-2013-suddenly-missing/ce304589-9db2-44c5-b1e1-8fd6596b70c4
Is the document in Compatibility Mode (shown by those words appearing in the title bar along with the document name)? If that's the case, click File and then click the Convert button. That will make the Layout Options button appear when a picture is selected, as well as turning on other features that are available only in the 2013 format. When you save, the document file will change to the .docx extension.
I know the second quote is about turning the Layout Options button on, but it works backwards, too. I saved my file as a *.doc instead of a *.docx and the floating button went away.
When you're finished editing your callouts, you can save it again as a *.docx.
One method that helped me was to flip horizontal, change the leader position, then flip back. That way the leader line is temporarily on the opposite side of the layout button, and both handles of the leader line are accessible, then can flip back. It is an extra step, but is another alternative.
In an attempt to automate this to quickly flip the object back and forth, I couldn't find a macro command to make a shortcut, or anything under Customize Ribbon with custom Keyboard Shortcuts to Flip Horizontal (MoreRotationOption opens up a dialog which does not give an option to flip).
The Flip Horizontal command could be called by pressing ALT JD (Format) AY (Rotate Objects) H (Horizontal) when the object is selected...
The best I could do was to add Rotate Objects to the Quick Access Toolbar, then the Flip Horizontal command could be called by pressing ALT # (whatever number you assign) H (Horizontal) which is three keystrokes.
