I have square-elements with corresponding popups. When I doubleclick on a square-element, the popup opens and shows a corresponding text. When hovering over the popup, an 'arrow' (triangle) is shown and points from popup to square. The arrow disappears, when the mouse is no longer at the popup. When I click on the popup-title the arrow stays where it is, until I click somewhere else. When I move or resize the popup a little bit the 'arrow' stays where it is. This is also the case, when several popups are shown for different elements.
Is it possible to tell the PDFXChange-Editor to show the arrow for specific elements after loading a document? E.g. within xfdf I can says open="yes" for the popup(s) but how do I tell the program to also show specific arrows or perhaps all arrows of all open popups by default?

Re: access to popup-arrow possible
Hello MaSeife,
There is a popupOpen property for annotations, so you can set that to true or false through JS and on a per annotation level - so you can have some that are and some that aren't open at the same time: Kind regards,
Stefan

Re: access to popup-arrow possible
Hi Stefan. Thanks a lot for the fast reply to my question. With that property I can control if the popup is open or not. When I use it the popups are shown. But the 'arrow' between the annotation element (the square in my case) and the popup-window is missing. That's what I want to access...

Re: access to popup-arrow possible
Hello MaSeife,
Ahh - apologies - sees like I misunderstood the question initially!
I thought it's the actual popups you want to show/hide.
Sorry about that!
I will ask our devs about your actual query and whether it can be achieved. I am personally not aware of a way to do this.
Kind regards,
Stefan

Re: access to popup-arrow possible
Hi Stefan,
thought that it maybe is an other property of the annotation but when executing the following javascript code in the PDFXChange Editor instance the result was more or less identical:
So maybe the information is stored somewhere else. Let's see if your developers know more

Markus

var myAnnotList = this.getAnnots();
for (var i = 0; i < myAnnotList.length; i++) {
if(myAnnotList[i].popupOpen) {
var vals = Object.keys(myAnnotList[i]).map(function(key) {
return key + '->' + myAnnotList[i][key];
});
console.println(vals);
}
}

Re: access to popup-arrow possible
Hello, MaSeife
I am afraid that the Dev team has come back and confirmed that we do not have the option to present all of these leaders at the same time. Only the currently in focused one, and the mouseover target can be enabled at the same time.
Kind regards,

Re: access to popup-arrow possible
Hallo Daniel,
sorry to hear that it doesn't seem to be possible. Then perhaps it was a bug not a feature in a former version. In the version that we use (PDF XChange Editor Plus Version 7.0 Build 328.2) you can achieve it manually.
1. Open several of the popups
2. Move all of the popups a little bit
Then all of the moved popups keep the 'arrow' - not only the last clicked ones. See the first screenshot of this post.

Hello, MaSeife
Unfortunately you would be correct. Perhaps in the future we can find a way to offer this properly, but at the moment I am afraid that it will not be possible.
