Viewing Bookmarks in Adobe Reader 9 - bookmarks

Why is there no way to show the bookmark panel in Adobe Reader 9?
Looked thru all the menus/properties/preferences.
There is no option to select Bookmarks under
View >> Navigation panels >> (nothing for bookmarks here)
Using Winnovative pdfConverter and trying to convert html code into reports.
Does adobe reader require there to be Bookmarks in the document for the panel to be an option?
Or is this seem feature I need to pay for from adobe?

Yes unfortunately there isn't any option of adding bookmarks in Adobe Reader but there's a way around this. All you have to do is check the first option in Edit -> Preferences -> Documents.
Here's a complete article on how to do just that:

I am providing an answer related to Adobe Reader X (I do not have Adobe Reader 9 to test it). It might be relevant.
There are two options for showing the Bookmarks panel:
Right click on the leftmost sidebar.
You should see the bookmark icon and activate it. If it's not showing, then there are no bookmarks in the document.
I just checked it with two pdfs, one with bookmarks and one without them.
View -> Show/Hide -> Navigation panes. Again, you should see the bookmark icon and activate it.
Item 1 taken from here.

There seems to be no way to ADD bookmarks in AR9. Obviously AR9 is only of interest under Linux. HOWEVER you can display bookmarks if they are already in the document e.g. TOC. They show up under View-> Navigation Panels
In my case dealing with a long document that did not have bookmarks, I simply moved it to a PC with Acrobat on it added the bookmarks (chapters) and they show up perfectly in AR9.

I know you wanted to know how to show the bookmark panel in Adobe Reader 9; however, I am going start here (the answer to your question is at the end of this explanation): To add a bookmark in Adobe Reader 9.0, open the pdf, go to the desired page, right-click anywhere on the page, select Add Bookmark (or press Ctrl+B). You can set a zoom level for the page and it will also be saved with the bookmark. You should then name the bookmark by clicking the bookmark button in the Navigation Panel on the right side of the document. Note: Once you click on Add Bookmark, the Navigation Panel will open on the right side of the document. You can then rename the new bookmark (it will be named Untitled) along with other options. After renaming, you can click on the arrow at top right of the Navigation Panel to close the bookmark section of the panel. You can hide the Navigation Panel Buttons; however, if left open, you can choose a bookmark by clicking on the Bookmarks button (2nd button from top). If you do choose to hide the Navigation Panel, to reopen it you will have to go to the View tab, Navigation Panels, and choose Show Navigation Pane (or press F4 while in the document).

How to allow seamless navigation of a bookdown book with keyboard arrow keys?

Say you are reading an online book that has been published with bookdown. For example, let's take the manual itself:
bookdown: Authoring Books and Technical Documents with R Markdown
If you click your pointer in the main content (text) of the window to give it focus, you can navigate page text with the arrow up or arrow down keys. In addition, you can navigate to a new page with the arrow left and arrow right keys.
However, once you navigate to a new a page, the focus is no longer in the main content (text) of the page. You can still navgiate to a new page with the left/right, but you can not navigate the text with up/down (without a lot of tab or shift + tab gymastics).
Is it possible to make the default focus on new page navigation to the main text? Is this a bookdown setting or something else?
This is a bug of bookdown and I just fixed it in the dev version on Github:
remotes::install_github('rstudio/bookdown')

Adobe Acrobat Reader - Cursor does not go away

I have a question about adobe acrobat reader.
So, when I open any PDF file, I used to click the right or left arrow to jump between pages.
Recently though I am unable to do this because, once the PDF file is opened, a "Cursor" is already there, and so when I click the right or left arrows, the Cursor moves between letters.
I do not know how to get red of this Cursor. It just there.
Is there a way to get rid of it??
Go to 'Edit' -> 'Preferences' -> 'Accessibility' -> Under 'Other Accessibility Options', there is a checkbox 'Always display the keyboard selection cursor'. Un-check this and you are good to go.

Accessible Table of Contents

Does anyone know if the aria authoring web page is keyboard accessible(https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices-1.1/) ? Looking for keyboard interaction assistance to move focus between the left and right pane.
It'd be nice if browsers took advantage of landmarks so that keyboard users would benefit. Currently, only screen reader users benefit from them. Most applications on a PC allow the F6 key to navigate to different areas. Try it in Word, Excel, browsers, whatever desktop apps. It even sort of works on the authoring practice page, but not completely (at least not in firefox).
We had to implement our own landmarks dialog that we invoked with Ctrl+F6 (so it'd be similar to F6) and we'd query the page for landmark roles and display them in a dialog to allow you to quickly jump to a section of the page.
Skip links are about as close as you can get now, but even that wouldn't help on a page like the authoring practice. If I had tabbed through half the links in the left nav panel and then decided I wanted to move the main contents in the right panel, a skip link wouldn't help. I'd have to navigate back to the skip link in order to jump to the main section. It'd be nice to hit a key while I was in the middle of the left nav to jump me to the right side.
You could use the accesskey attribute to allow a shortkey to move between the two, but those are hard to discover. JAWS will tell you about the accesskey but NVDA and VoiceOver will not. If you don't have any indication on the screen that there's a shortcut/accesskey, then how will people know it's there. Once they know about it, it's great. For example, wikipedia has an accesskey='f' on the search field, but you might not know that. Once you do know it, it's great to be in the middle of a wiki article and hit alt+shift+f (on firefox and chrome) or alt+f (internet explorer) to quickly jump to the search field.
You could do the same with a left panel / right panel configuration if you had an accesskey on an object in the left panel and a different accesskey on an object in the right panel. Just make sure users know about it.

Is there a way to get rid of the tab row in atom editor?

There was a change in base code of Atom.io, so there is a tab row in all panel. It is still bearable in my file tree view, but I do think it is really annoying to have the tab in linter warning panel too.
Is there a way to get rid of it?
netizen's answer will work, but it will cause a potential problem for you later: if you end up with more than one component in one of your docks, you won't be able to see them, switch between them, close them, or rearrange them.
What you are seeing is that in Atom 1.17, a new UI building block was added, called Docks. You can read more about Docks in the blog post where they were announced, or in the deep dive written by the Nuclide team.
Instead of specific components written to sit in a special place in the window (such as tree-view, which sat on the left edge), now you have Dock areas: left, bottom, and right. Any component can sit in one of them, and more than one component fits into a dock.
This is like having multiple files in the editor window: you need a way to rearrange them, see all of them, and switch between them. Tabs are the answer to this problem.
Some people find it visually annoying to see the tabs when only one tab exists. Atom offers an option (in the tabs package) to change this behavior.
It turns out that this option covers all of the tab bars, not just the tab bar in the file editor.
You can find the option in the settings for the tabs package.
Open Atom preferences
click "Packages"
search for "tabs"
click "Settings" on the "tabs" package
Un-check "Always Show Tab Bar"
As I mentioned above, this will affect both your editor tabs and the tabs in Docks. When only one tab exists, the tab bar is hidden, and it is shown again when more than one tab exists.
Insert this into yous styles.less file:
.atom-dock-inner .bottom .tab-bar { display:none; }
Edit: As the comment below from #dan-lowe points, this solution has important drawbacks. It should be applied as a last resort and only to this version both of Atom editor and linter-ui-default, as the docks API is new and prone to changes.

Freeze a JavaScript? [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Can you make hovered state in Firebug "sticky?"
(5 answers)
Closed 9 years ago.
I'm making a custom CSS theme for Facebook and I'm trying to view the CSS code for the little pop-up that happens when you hover your cursor over someones profile picture. I'm using Firebug to view the CSS code. It's viewable, but I cannot view the CSS code fully, because once I take my cursor off the profile picture, the pop-up disappears, then Firebug doesn't display the CSS code used for it. So is there a way to freeze open the JS so when I take my cursor off it doesn't go away? Or is there anyway to freeze the pop-up open?
Using Google Chrome:
Go to Facebook
Press F12 to open Chrome Developer Tools
Go to the Sources tab (helper screenshot below):
After having clicked on the Sources tab described previously, make sure you DON'T click anywhere on the page. Go hover over a profile picture, and while the pop-up is open, hit F8 and move the mouse a little bit (like 1 pixel).
The page should now be frozen. You can go to the Elements tab, press CTRL+F and search for some text that's inside the pop-up. This way, you will see the corresponding HTML and you will be able to view without constraints the CSS.
If you want to resume, you can go back to the Sources tab, and hit the resume button on the right.
