How can I drag-select on Vuze? - bittorrent

I'm trying Vuze and I can't select multiple torrents (not all) clicking and dragging the mouse, like I do on uTorrent (as seen on the image). Searched on vuze forums and in general, but I couldn't find why. Any ideas? or you can't just drag-select?

It seems you need to use the 'usual' key/mouse click combinations to multi-select. I just added a suggestion to enable multi-selection dragging the mouse: http://vote.vuze.com/forums/170588-general/suggestions/6354292-drag-select-option-with-mouse

ST3: Find text results in panel instead of a buffer

I must have hit a setting in ST3 and caused my program to display results in a panel instead of in a buffer. How do I get it back so that find-text results go into their own tab? I've done some digging around but I can't find what I did.
In the Find in Files panel, there is a series of buttons to the left of the Find field, and the right most one of those is the one that controls whether the find results show up in a panel or in a buffer.
Note that the button may look different in your version as it appears that you're using a different theme (the image below shows the default theme). You can verify that you have the correct button based on the tool tip text.

Matlab linux GUI glitches

I've been having this problem with the Matlab GUI (linux) that has been annoying me for over a year but I still haven't found a solution.
Basically, the autofix hints are not displayed. When I move the mouse cursor over a potential warning/suggestion, a gray-background pop-up appears but the text inside is missing. The same happens when I hover over those little warning bars on the right hand side of the editor. Does anyone have any clue what might be causing this?

This happens only on my linux machine (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, NVidia GeForce with nvidia driver).
Thanks!
For those interested, this issue appears to be related to the Unity Desktop. Mathworks does not provide a fix but suggests using a different XServer instead. Here is the answer I received from support:
This issue is known to occur due to a windowing system used with
"linux" on which MATLAB has not been tested. It has been observed that
if you are using "Unity desktop" in "linux", then the tooltips are
displayed as blanks.
To work around this issue, you may try switching off "Unity desktop".
You can refer to the following links for more information on this
issue:
http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/116987-empty-tooltips-in-code-analyzer
matlab code analyzer produces empty tooltips
Indeed, I tried lubuntu and XUbuntu (Xfce) and the tooltips in Matlab were working in both cases. I find Unity very handy because I got used to it, so for now, I will probably simply not use this Matlab feature. Hopefully this will be fixed eventually.
It's an old post but some people may be still looking for a solution or a hack. Well, I also had this issue on R2015a when using two monitors and hiding Ubuntu 14.04 sidebar seems to do the trick. This link explains how to do it: http://www.howtogeek.com/198218/how-to-easily-hide-the-unity-launcher-in-ubuntu-14.04/. Hope it helps!
This is accomplished, in the article, by:-
1) Select “System Settings” from the drop-down menu.
2) The “System Settings” dialog box displays. In the “Personal”
section, click “Appearance.”
3) On the “Appearance” screen, click the “Behavior” tab.
4) On the right side of the “Behavior” tab, there’s an ON/OFF switch.
Click the switch so it reads ON.
5) The ON/OFF switch also turns orange. Additional options for how to
show the hidden Unity Launcher become available in the “Auto-hide the
Launcher” section of the “Behavior” tab. Under “Reveal location,”
select whether you want to move the mouse to any location on the “Left
side” or just to the “Top left corner” of the screen to reveal the
Unity Launcher. Use the “Reveal sensitivity” slider to change the
sensitivity of the reveal location.
6) Once you have chosen your settings, close the “Settings” dialog box
by clicking the “X” button in the upper-left corner of the dialog box.
This happens to me in Ubuntu 15.10 using xfce, with two monitors connected to an Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT, one of which is rotated to portrait orientation. The "workaround", from the page Anton linked, is to resize my matlab desktop such that the red underlined text or red scrollbar annotation is in the bottom third of my left monitor. Unbelievable.
My preferred workaround is to use Python+Scipy+Matplotlib instead of Matlab.

Visio stencil/shape text box is hidden - need shown

I've downloaded and am using the VNX 5300 stencil/shape from https://download.emc.com/downloads/DL38235_VNX_Visio_Stencil.zip (I had to create a free account to download it).
I can hit F2 to edit the text, as normal, but it will not display. On other downloaded shapes/stencils, if I right-clicked on the shape/stencil, I would have the option to hide/show shape text, but it doesn't exist on this one. I have looked in the shapesheet data, and "hide text" is already set to false. In developer options, the text is not protected.
Is there a way to force the text to display? I hope to learn how to fix this problem, rather than band-aid it and merely add a second text box.
This stencil was created oddly. I had to right-click and ungroup from master. Then I had to, again, right-click and ungroup a second time. After the two ungroup actions (from its original format--I did NOT group it to anything, whatsoever), I was able to edit the text and see it, but cannot move it. The shapesheet then showed the "text transform" options so I can pin it, but again, cannot move it to the location I want.
I then had to completely frankenstein and butcher the shapesheet text transform to barely get it moved where I wanted. Adding a text control handle was not possible.
This is a faulty stencil made by EMC, apparently, as I have not had these problems with any of the other brands' stencils I've downloaded.

Visual C++ ListBox as Preference Chooser

So I'm building a tool that allows a user to edit a whole bunch of preferences for various things. There are several groups of settings, too many to use a TabControl without creating arrow sliders to view all of the tabs, so I decided I would try and use a ListBox to list the groups of preferences, and then when they click on them, the settings that they can change show up to the right of the box.
I'm just not sure how to do this. Obviously it would invoke something in the OnSelectionChanged function of the ListBox, but I'm not sure where to go from there. Surely a dialog can have dynamic design, right? Would I mimic the creation of a tabbed-dialog where I create my designs and then bind them to the TabControl, and just do something similar for the ListBox? Again, it's not the ListBox itself that is dynamic. The user will click on "Settings A" from the ListBox, and to the right of the ListBox will be settings 1, 2, and 3 that each have textboxs/radios/checks.
Any hints on how I can accomplish this? I just think it looks nicer than having a whole bunch of tabs lined up across the top of the box. Thanks in advance to any brilliant minds who can help me out. I'm versed in C++, but I'm very much a beginner at VC++.
You can a vertical splitter with two panes:
one which contains the list
another one which contains the configuration dialogs you would normally use in a tab control
Each time the list selection changes you can load the appropriate dialog in the right pane. You can find a splitter tutorial here: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/wtl/wtl4mfc7.aspx

Building Nav Bars with rollovers in DreamWeaver CS3

I'm working with Dreamweaver CS3. The question here is what part of the code (listed below) do I need to replicate to have my secondary nav bar utilize the on-click action?
FYI...DW has two menu options or auto insert items...one for roll over images and one for "navbar". DW will only allow you to use the 'navbar' item once per page
the nav bar option builds all the rollover actions for you (listed below)
the "rollover" option ONLY builds normal and over, but no click
I guess I really have two questions...the first is what part of the code do I need to insert manually, the second is what does the "MM_nbGroup" code mean?
"../photogallery.html" target="_top" onClick="MM_nbGroup('down','group1','photoMainNav','../images/buttons/photography_down.gif',1)"
onMouseOver="MM_nbGroup('over','photoMainNav','../images/buttons/photography_over.gif','../images/buttons/photography_over.gif',1)" onMouseOut="MM_nbGroup('out')"><img src="../images/buttons/photography.gif"
Thanks for any help on this in advance!
For anyone wondering the same thing, here's what I've found so far...
The 'insert' bar provided in DWCS3 doesn't allow for two 'inserted' menu bars on one page. However, the 'Behaviors' palette will allow you to add effective roll-overs with the "Set Nav Bar Image" option. Unfortunately (as far as I can tell) DWCS3 is not as smart as Adobe's GoLive was, in that it won't automatically fill in the appropriate items if you name your files correctly. Even still, you should name your images accordingly (xxx_over, xxx_down, etc) to keep it straight in your own head.
As for the MM_nbGroup question, best I can tell this is WYSIWYG code that ships with DWCS3 (the kind of stuff that really mifs some of you developers, sorry guys), as it names items by group # and doesn't seem to have any real relevance in the lexicon of html. I could be mistaken on this however, and am open to enlightenment on the topic if anyone can offer.
