Xilinx Document Navigator Tips and Tricks

Xilinx Document Navigator (DocNav) has been out for over two years since I first blogged about it. It has become one of indispensable tools for my daily work. I hope everybody else feels the same way. There are a few tips&tricks I would like to share and hopefully they can be helpful to other users as well:
  • I always press "CTRL-F" to bring up "Find" box in Adobe Reader to search keywords. However, it doesn't come up if the "Find" box is already open in another PDF document. This is a limitation of Adobe Reader. The workaround is to right-click anywhere in the active PDF and select "Find".
  • If you don't want to download and keep >3GB documents all at once, check "Download Web-Based PDF Documents When First Opened" on the Settings Dialog to download and save documents on demand.
 
  • If the button to slide out "Document Tray" is lost for some reason, unmaximize the DocNav main window, then exit and reopen the application
  • Some PDFs are opened without Adobe tool bar by default (left window in the snapshot below). Hover the mouse over the center area at the bottom and a small tool bar will pop up. Click on the "Adobe" icon to turn on the tool bar for the document.

  1. Problem: HP Printer not connecting to my laptop.
    I had an issue while connecting my 2 year old HP printer to my brother's laptop that I had borrowed for starting my own business. I used a quick google search to fix the problem but that did not help me. I then decided to get professional help to solve my problem. After having received many quotations from various companies, i decided to go ahead with Online Tech Repair (www.onlinetechrepairs.com).
    Reasons I chose them over the others:
    1) They were extremely friendly and patient with me during my initial discussions and responded promptly to my request.
    2) Their prices were extremely reasonable.
    3) They were ready and willing to walk me through the entire process step by step and were on call with me till i got it fixed.
    How did they do it
    1) They first asked me to state my problem clearly and asked me a few questions. This was done to detect any physical connectivity issues with the printer.
    2) After having answered this, they confirmed that the printer and the laptop were functioning correctly.
    3) They then, asked me if they could access my laptop remotely to troubleshoot the problem and fix it. I agreed.
    4) One of the tech support executives accessed my laptop and started troubleshooting.
    5) I sat back and watched as the tech support executive was navigating my laptop to spot the issue. The issue was fixed.
    6) I was told that it was due to an older version of the driver that had been installed.
    My Experience I loved the entire friendly conversation that took place with them. They understood my needs clearly and acted upon the solution immediately. Being a technical noob, i sometimes find it difficult to communicate with tech support teams. It was a very
    different experience with the guys at Online Tech Repairs. You can check out their website www.onlinetechrepairs.com or call them on 1-914-613-3786.
    Would definitely recommend this service to anyone who needs help fixing their computers.
    Thanks a ton guys. Great Job....
