I wrote an Awesomium 1.7.2 plugin that displays a bunch of text and contains a few buttons. While the plugin functions fine, I have some strange display issues.
I have a separate program that I sometimes "Dock" at the top of my computer screen. When I do that, the text inside my Awesomium window gets warped a little (see screenshots below). That's because that window THINKS that it's maximized, but the screen has been compressed by 20 to 30 pixels; whatever the height of that separate, docked window is.
Other programs seem to be smart enough to render text appropriately when I add/remove my docked program. Also, when I view these web pages directly in a web-browser, they get resized properly after the dock change. It's only when they're inside of this Awesomium control where they don't respond properly to another program being docked. How can I make my html controls behave this way inside of the Awesomium window?
Update: I tried 1.7.3 as well, but the problem still exists.
Update: I also posted this question on answers.awesomium.com and awesomium.zendesk.com, but that hasn't helped.

I have included the colorbox css and js and it works when I click any image. However, I don't see any button/control on the overlay. It is only the image with dark overlay behind it. What could be going wrong here?
I am doing this in k15t Scroll Viewport for Confluence.
I tried changing the default script values but even that didn't help. Am I supposed to add the controls manually? I don't think so.
I would like to see the default close button along with slideshow effect, etc. that colorbox offers.
I figured it out. Though dumb but still. The default colorbox images (button icons) folder was residing at a location different from where colorbox expected it. So now, I can see the close button at least.
What still remains is - though I have set the colorbox properties right, I still don't see the previous and next buttons on a page with multiple images. What am I missing? It should have shown up by default...
Thank you.
I've developed a VBA-style add-on for PowerPoint in C# using NetOffice Framework, https://github.com/NetOfficeFw . The add-on is now working, and in fact my question is not really related to that.
On my desktop PC I have four screens, and when PowerPoint is in "slide show mode" it takes over two of the screens, one for the slide show and one for the presenter screen, both shown in full screen mode. The normal PowerPoint window is also still there on one of the other two screens.
On my old portable PC with an extra screen connected, the extra screen normally shows a mirror image of the built-in display. But when PowerPoint goes into "slide show mode" it somehow reconfigures the system and shows the slide show in full screen on the connected screen and the presenter screen on the built-in display. Very clever.
But what exactly has PowerPoint done, and how? Is this documented anywhere?
This is mostly just to satisfy my curiosity. I have now recoded my add-on so it works - I was previously using the .Net System.Windows.Forms.Screen class to figure out where to position the mouse cursor when I'd placed PowerPoint in "slide show mode", but that doesn't work on my portable PC because it maintains that there is still only one screen on the system.
Older versions of PPT behave differently but current versions, when you start a slide show, change your windows video settings from mirror to extend and put the slide show view on the second monitor unless you override the default settings. Then it resets the video to the previous setting when you end the slide show.
When you extend the display across multiple monitors, Windows sees it as one large screen, which explains why your PC reports only the one screen, I think.
Is it possible to create a NSWindow that will not only is above all other windows (including other applications) but also able to block windows from going "into" that window. Basically I would like to extend the system's menu bar by having another bar below it, but it stops the user from resizing other windows to occupy that space.
For instance, if the user was to maximize a window, it would only be able to have a height of the screen size minus the system status bar minus my application's window.
I was thinking it may be possible by listening to some sort of window resizing notification and if the user tries to set the frame of that other window to a size that would go inside of my application's window then I would resize the other window, but method seems like such a pain.
I also acknowledge that this may not be possible, but was curious if it is!
Thanks in advance!
It is totally possible to make a window which is above all other windows, just set It's level to NSMainMenuWindowLevel.
But preventing other windows from resizing beyond It, I don't think so.
Even if there is a system API to limit window resizing (I don't think there is), some apps use custom code to control window resizing and would completely ignore the presence of your "special" window. I've seen apps which simply hardcode 22 (the height of the menu bar) when calculating window resizing stuff.
I am using QTP 11.0 and a java button in my application is highlighted in big monitor screen(19 or 20 inch) but not in Laptop screen(14 or 15 inch).
I have to click the button and a pop up will be seen,this works fine in big screen but in laptop screen the pop up does not appear.Is there any workaround?
In small screen the scroll bar appears and the java button is below the screen, but in big screen its appeared without scrolling so its working fine with the big screen.
Also i have tried if scroll down is possible through scripting in small screen ,but scroll down does not work NOR does pgDown pgUP works in the application.
Addins selected are ActiveX,Java,Web
Advanced thanks...
As per the given information I assume that the problem is with the object properties of the java button. Could you try adding only htmlid/name property & try highlighting the object in both the screens? Please disable object identification, location & indexing if applicable. If possible share the properties of the object for further analysis.
Does QTP fail to recognise the button during play back? QTP may not highlight the button because it is not visible; but in most cases it will be able to perform actions (such as click event) on the button. Make the button visible in web page / application and try clicking on Highlight button in QTP.
I've created a simple Cocoa-Application in XCode 4.6 with an NSPanel instead of the default NSWindow. When I enable the Non-Activating
option and start the application everything works fine:
The panel is displayed in front of everything else and when
the mouse cursor hovers over the panel's edges it changes from a normal
arrow-cursor to the appropriate resize-cursor, so the user knows that he can resize
the panel.
This works fine as longs as I don't click on any other application
as for example Safari or Finder.
From the moment I once give focus to another application,
I can click on and hover over my panel as much as I want, the
cursor style will not change anymore - it always stays an arrow and it's not possible to return to the normal behavior.
The panel stays selectable and in the front, you still can move and resize it,
but the mouse cursor stays an arrow all the time. You then cannot even change it
manually using something like: [[NSCursor crosshairCursor] set].
So I need to find a way to create a NSPanel that keeps the normal
automatic-change-cursorstyle-when-hovering-over-panel-edges-behaviour
even when you give focus to another application.
I have already tried to use an customized NSPanel-class,
where I have overwritten the canBecomeKeyWindow and
canBecomeMainWindow methods, so that they return YES
but even when I make my Panel KeyWindow and MainWindow...
[myPanel makeKeyAndOrderFront:self];
[myPanel makeMainWindow];
...it doesn't solve the cursor issue.
Would be great if someone could help me here :)
PS.: the Base SDK and the Deployment Target are set to 10.8 in my project
So I found out that the described issue has nothing to to with the panel's window-state. It really doesn't matter if it is set to key or to main, instead the cursor-problem (stays arrow all the time)is related to the application's activation state.
Everything works fine as long as the application that owns the panel is active but if you click on another application my application is deactivated and does not get activated again - even if you click on the panel - because the "non-activating"-option is enabled.
The problem is that i need the "non activating"-option because I am creating a status-bar-screen-capturing app that should be displayed and operate in front of everything else but without deactivating any running application. I could solve the cursor problem by
[NSApp activateIgnoringOtherApps];
but then taking a screenshot of a fullscreen video running in Safari would deactivate Safari and minimize the video, which I don't want.
I don’t think it’s possible through normal APIs to change the cursor when your app isn’t active. I’m pretty sure the window system doesn’t allow it: it’d be a violation of the boundaries between apps—if you try to set a cursor from the background, and the foreground app also tries to set a cursor, who would win?
Of course the system can do it (like when you take a screenshot with ⌘⇧4), because that’s in the window system itself.
