In word 2007, I'm trying to use the default activex control as check box. I would like the color of text changed after some one check the box it.
I know how to get it done with VBA and checkbox formfield, but how can this be done with checkbox(active control)?
Shortly, is there any way I can retrieve the properties or other object information of ActiveX control check box?
I think this answer is too late for the questioner, how ever i am sending it for those who will face this problem later on.
IF you know how to change check box color in VBA then you can do it in word as well. All you have to do is to insert a check box that you can code your self. to do so.
Generate Developor's Tab in MS Word by clicking word button at the top left of MS WORD 07 Window; Select Advanced; Select Popular; then in the pan opened, check the check box that contains Developor's tab.
Now Click the Developer's Tab, Locate the Control Group and from their, click on legacy tools pull down menu.Click on more controls option at the lowest left of the legacy tools pull down menu. A new Window will open.
Scroll down to find the option Micrsoft Forms 2.0checkbox.
Click to select it, and you are done. You will receive a check box at the place where your cursor was blinking before you startated this process.
This Checkbox is very similar to the Check box from VB. Now if you know the VBA Codes and want to change the properties of check box like color etc. Look at the Control Group in Developer's Tab. Click Design Mode. Now DOUBLE CLICK THE CHECK BOX AND VB CODING FORM OPENS WHERE YOU CAN CODE.
In case you do not know how to code in VB, You can still make some useful changes in check box. Single click on the check box and Then Click Properties Immediately below the Design Mode in the devloper's Tab.
Here you can make changes in properties.

I want a save button that I can click with the mouse, but when I focus on a SQL editor page and file and do >Window >Customise Perspective >Edit actions, it's greyed out and says "Save (Ctrl+S' command cannot be made visible in this dialog.
DBeaver Community v6.0.5.2019... Windows 10 Enterprise 2016
It's just a simple thing so I don't have to keep switching between keyboard and mouse.
This is some months old so it may not be relevant for you, but this may help others (I was brought here as the lone google search result and had to keep poking around until I found it)
anyway, in DBeaver menu select Window>Preferences>DBeaver>Editors there should be a checkbox for 'Show Edit toolbar'. Check that and apply and close. Exit and restart DBeaver and it should have buttons for save/undo/etc. If it still does not, go to Window>Customize Perspective and the 'Edit actions' toolbar items should no longer be unselectable so you should be able to add them to the toolbar from there.
I have a problem in an Access app. I open a form and its On Open event sets it to maximized. All good. From this form I click a button that opens another form who's On Open event opens it as maximized, over top of the original form. All good. When I close the second form, the original form is no longer maximized, it is now in a window. Not good.
I can't figure out why this is or how to prevent/resolve this. What event do I need to monitor and method to call to set the original form back to maximized. I tried playing with the On Close event of the second form but couldn't find the code to alter the (already open) original form. I tried a bunch of things but no luck. Any ideas?
Set the property of both forms to pop-up,modular and you should be fine
I assume you have a DoCmd.Maximize in the Open event of the first form?
Then somewhere in the Close or Unload event of the second form (or somewhere else), there must be a DoCmd.Restore.
Is any of the forms Popup or Modal?
OK, bit of a breakthrough. What fixed it was to place DoCmd.Maximize inside the On Activate event of the first form. When the 2nd form is closed the 1st form is automatically activated and the On Activate event fires, which maximizes the form again (I'm still not really sure why this is necessary). The key was figuring our what event to base the maximize method on.
Many thanks to everyone who posted.
With your database open in Access 2007, click on the "Office Button" (that's the round button in the upper left hand corner of the Acces window).
Click on the "Access Options" at the botton right.
In the "Access Options" dialog box, click on the "Current Database" option from the list on the left.
In the "Application Options" group, locate the "Document Window options". There are two options and an check box. Select the "Operlapping Windows" option. (The "Tabbed Documents" option is the default for all Access 2007 files. For more information about this, you may want to click on the "Guide to Access 2007 User Interface" link located on the "Getting Statred with Microsoft Office Access" screen that appears when you open Access 2007 from a short cut on your desktop or from the Startup menu.)
After making the selecltion of the "Overlapping Windows" option and closisng the diaplog box, you will be prompted that you have to close the current database and reopen it for your changes to take effect. Selecting the "Overlapping Windows" option will cause Access to use the interface that you are more used to.
My GEF editor (extending GraphicalEditorWithFlyoutPalette) always opens the editor with the palette hidden on first start of the application / first opening of the editor (after a build for example).
As this will potentially bewilder users who'll need to go in search of the flyout icon first, I'd like to have the palette view shown whenever the editor is opened. The user can then choose to close it on his/her preferences.
How can I achieve this? The API doesn't seem to give any clues, or I'm unable to find them...
The state of the palette defines if it is open or closed. This state is accessible using the getPalettePreferences().setPaletteState() method that is accessible in the GraphicalEditorWithFlyoutPalette. To open the palette, you must set it to the FlyoutPaletteComposite.STATE_PINNED_OPEN, like this:
getPalettePreferences().setPaletteState(FlyoutPaletteComposite.STATE_PINNED_OPEN);
If you want to ALWAYS override the state so that the palette is always opened with the editor, you have to add the line to the constructor of your editor. If you only want to do this once, and then leave the state as it was last selected by the user... No idea how to do this :-(
I have a org.eclipse.swt.browser.Browser instance created in a composite. I would like to know when some content is pasted in the browser using the (platform specific) right click context menu and selecting the paste option.
In the menuDetected() of MenuDetectListener, I get a notification when the context menu is detected in the browser.
How can I know if the Paste option is selected from the context menu?
Regards,
Noopur
No you can't access the selected context menu item. There is no direct provision for that. At least not in eclipse 3.7. Although, you could try different combinations of events for determining the menu item. For example, in windows the internet explorer populates the status bar with 'inserts the clipboard...' when your mouse pointer hovers over the Paste menu item, you can capture this using StatusTextListener event.
Note: The hack is not an elegant solution, even if you get it working, there is still some possibility that it may break with new or older releases of SWT or in fact its behavior may vary with operating systems !!
We have a multi-tiered/hierarchical YUI menu activated via a YUI menu button. Everything in this menu works pretty well. If you mouseover a menu item with a submenu, the submenu appears as expected. You can select an item from this submenu just fine.
The problem, however, is that you can also click on the parent items of this menu which closes the entire menu. In fact, I want the opposite. I'd like a click of a parent menu item leave the top level menu open and open the submenu (i.e. I want a click to be identical to a mouseover event in terms of functionality).
Side note: This isn't an issue on a typical web browser (e.g. Firefox) where the click event doesn't matter because you can't have a click without a mouseover. This is an issue on the iPhone which doesn't have a mouseover event.
I've been playing with the autosubmenudisplay properties and keepopen properties, hoping I can just handle the parent item click events to do what I want but, so far, I've been unsuccessful. If I set autosubmenudisplay to false, I can't figure out how to get the submenus to display manually. The keepopen property doesn't seem to work rather I set it on the menu or submenus.
Is there a way to get the behavior I want so our iPhone users are happy?
Todd Kloots, author of the YUI Button and Menu widgets here. Took at look at your request. Unfortunately the current version YUI Button and Menu aren't designed to support the type of interaction you are looking to create. Feel free to file a feature request via SourceForge and I'll try to work on this for a future version of YUI.

It's not exactly what you asked for, but have you looked at iUI? You may be able to pick up some tricks from the implementation.
