Siebel popups in High Interactivity can't be closed by 'X' button in the upper right corner of the popup window (after a popup is opened for the second time). Is there any way to enable it?
To reproduce that:
open Help->About View... can be closed by X button
open Help->About View... now it can NOT be closed by X button
siebel version: 8.1.1.14
Internet Explorer 11, compatibility mode enabled
thanks
It is not a usual behaviour. It may occurs if you are using IE version other than IE8. Which IE version you are using ? If you are using IE version > IE8 then enable compatibility mode and try again.

I have a set of instances of plotting view that's added/removed dynamically according to incoming signals from tcp port from another process.
In each instance, the user can right click to open a popup menu, invoked via wxWindow::PopupMenu.
If the plotting view instance is to got shutted-down dynamically while the popup menu is visible, the view instance window is closed while the popup menu is still floating. Then any GUI action crashes the application.
I've been going through the APIs for wxWidgets to find a way to programmatically close the popup menu in the plotting view destructor, but with no-luck.
I found this forum post suggesting it's an impossible thing to close the popup menu programmatically. But it's too old, so not sure if it's still valid assumption.
Here are the trials that failed till now :
Trying to call SetFocus and SetFocusFromKbd on the plotting view as a way to move focus.
Generating mouse left click event and send it to the popup menu.
Generating a keyboard event and send it to the popup menu.
PlottingView::~PlottingView()
{
cout << "Sending wxMouseEvent to the popup menu" << endl;
wxMouseEvent e(wxEVT_LEFT_UP);
this->GetPopupMenu()->ProcessEvent(e);
wxKeyEvent ke(wxEVT_CHAR);
ke.m_keyCode = WXK_DOWN;
this->GetPopupMenu()->ProcessEvent(ke);
ke.m_keyCode = WXK_RETURN;
this->GetPopupMenu()->ProcessEvent(ke);
// the rest of the destruction
}
So I will appreciate any idea to programmatically close this popup menu.
Platform:
CentOS: 6.7
wxWidgets 2.8.12
G++: 4.3.3
Edit #1
Note: For commenters and answers suggesting upgrading the wxWidgets version, it's a debate in my team for everyday. But the answer is still no.
Most of the trials has failed. But I found a workaround to stop crashing but the popup menu don't close.
The solution was to nullify the following members using their setters, so the menu callback won't access them.
this->GetPopupMenu()->SetInvokingWindow(NULL);
this->GetPopupMenu()->SetEventHandler(NULL);
The best is probably to delay destroying the underlying window until PopupMenu() returns. As it is, your program logic is very convoluted because you're dispatching the event which results in closing of the window from inside PopupMenu() function and this just can't end well, even if you could use wxUIActionSimulator to close the menu (but you definitely should consider upgrading your 15 year old wxWidgets version in any case).
I've been using Postman for a while now. Suddenly though it has stopped working. When trying to open it I get a loading spinner then nothing. No error. Nothing in Event Viewer. Nothing. Although the Icon in the task bar at the foot of the page looks broken or corrupted.
I've tried reinstalling, rebooting, clearing cache - nothing
I'm on Windows 7, 64 bit
Anyone ran into anything like this? :-/
I had a similar issue. The solution that worked for me is to use --disable-gpu flag for postman shortcut C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Postman\<app-version>\Postman.exe --disable-gpu:
More info on Github: https://github.com/postmanlabs/postman-app-support/issues/4594
This issue happened for me when running a remote desktop session, it appears that postman is running but opening off screen. According to this thread
https://github.com/postmanlabs/postman-app-support/issues/2833
This can happen when you add or change a monitor.
There is a solution there - deleting some json files - but I found that I could see the Postman app in Task Manager -> Applications and then bring it up by selecting "Switch To"
I faced a similar issue and found that you need to navigate to AppData\Local\Postman and find the latest installed version folder now change the shortcut path on the desktop in my case it was AppData\Local\Postman\app-7.36.0\Postman.exe I did and it worked :)

I had a similar issue on Windows 10. The application did not show up after opening it. This post helped me:
Hover the Postman icon in the taskbar. Then click the preview window that opens above it.
Press Alt + Space and then M or click "Move".
Move the Postman window with arrow keys, it probably was invisible on the right or left side of your screen.
This problem appeared after working with an external display. When I got Postman back visible, it showed an update dialogue.
I have an application with an icon in the system tray.
When you right click the tray icon it shows a menu where the user can select an action.
I have found that if I have a full screen application running and then use alt + esc to get to the tray icon. Then when I right click the icon the menu will show up behind(under) the windows taskbar.
In some cases, the menu is so low that it is not possible to select the lowest menu item in the context menu.
When it is not a full screen application that is in front the menu is correctly shown on top of the taskbar. I have also testes on windows 7 where it works fine with full screen application.
I have tried with different full screen application like internet explorer, Notepad++ but the same thing happens.
I can also see that there are lots of other application like “Skype for business” and “Radeon Settings” that does the same thing.
Skype for business with menu behind taskbar:
For the build-in windows 10 applications this works better.
The Windows Time and Language parts of the system tray will show menus on top of the taskbar with the new windows 10 layout (black)
The Windows Sound and Network icons will hide the taskbar while showing a regular right click menu, but keeping the start menu open. (This however looks a bit strange)
I have tried with the NotificationIcon sample from the windows SDK but this also does not work correctly.
So the question is what is the right way to program showing tray context menu’s for windows 10?
My code looks like this.
case WM_RBUTTONDOWN:
{
SetForegroundWindow();
CMenu menu;
menu.LoadMenu(ID_TRAY_MENU_SHOW_APP);
CMenu* pPopup = menu.GetSubMenu ( 0 ) ;
GetCursorPos ( &pt ) ;
pPopup->TrackPopupMenu ( TPM_LEFTALIGN | TPM_RIGHTBUTTON,pt.x, pt.y, this );
}
Thanks for you help
It is a Windows 10 bug, that I have noticed with many applications. It is as if MS is not defining the taskbar properly. Been nearly 2 yrs with no fix... maybe in another couple.
This one did the trick for me in W10 when experiencing the same issue with the tray menu of catalyst control center:
Unlock taskbar
Move it to any other side of the desktop
Lock and Unlock taskbar
Place taskbar back to your preferred position and lock it
Maybe it's a client issue and not related to your code at all.

I can confirm, that this seems to be a Windows bug which occurs randomly on my Windows 10 instance. It seems to happen when waking windows up from sleep after I docked or undocked my notebook from a docking station, where I use a different monitor setup. But it's hard to tell if this is the cause or not.
If it happens, I run a batch script with following content:
taskkill /F /IM explorer.exe
# Wait a few seconds
ping -n 3 127.0.0.1 > NUL 2>&1
start explorer.exe
This restarts Windows Explorer and all the tray menus start appearing in front of the task bar again.
I have created a custom toolbar for IE. After I install opens IE9 browser, the toolbar is displayed.
1) When I open InPrivate browsing, my toolbar is not displayed in the browser. It is not listed in context menu too. This happens in IE 9 & 10 versions.
2) When I switch to Fullscreen mode by pressing F11 in IE, my custom toolbar is not displayed.
Are these expected behaviors for IE or do I need to add any code to make it visible.
Please suggest.

I'm writing an application for Mac OS X 10.6 and later in C++. One part of the application needs to simulate mouse movement and mouse clicks. I do this currently by posting CGEvent objects using CGEventPost(kCGHIDEventTap, event);.
This works, for the most part - I can simulate mouse movement and clicks just fine, but it seems to fail in some areas. For example:
In Mozilla Firefox and Safari, I can click on all the menus, but cannot click on a link within a website. When I try, the link is highlighted, but the browser never follows the link. However, I can right-click on a link, select "open link in new tab", and everything works as expected. Solved - creating the mouse event using CGEventCreateMouseEvent(...) makes the event work within web browser.
I can click on the "Dashboard" icon to brink up the dashboard, but I cannot click on the "i" button on any of the dashboard widgets. Similarly, clicking on any of the search results from the spotlight search widget doesn't work either.
This inconsistency is along application boundaries. What might be the cause?
What you need to do to convince these applications that you have in fact generated a click is to explicitly set the value of the "click state" field on the mouse up event to 1 (it defaults to 0). The following code will do it:
CGEventSetIntegerValueField(event, kCGMouseEventClickState, 1);
It also has to be set to 1 for the mouse down, but by using CGEventCreateMouseEvent() rather than CGEventCreate() that gets done for you.
I have tested this and it works in the 'i' buttons in the dashboard and the Spotlight search results.
(As an aside, if you were simulating a double click you would need to set the click state to 2 for both the mouse down and mouse up events of the second click.)
Most menus are activated with the mouseDown event. Hyperlinks are followed after the mouseUp event. The "i" button only works when the mouse has been clicked but not a long time.
All this seem to show that you have a timing problem, try several pressed timing.
Use OSXVnc. I see they use CGPostMouseEvent() instead of CGPostEvent().
I have written how to do it in the blog post Python Mouse Click and Move Mouse on Apple Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.x.
