Scale in Property inspector

Hi,
I have recently got the Flash bug.
To my regret, I experience some difficulties in mastering
Flash. There are a few reasons. For example, one of them I am
afraid that the help and tutorials of Flash do not cover all my
enquiries on this program and I am forced to seek assistance
outside.
I hope that Flash forum will serve as a reliable support in
my learning this program.
Alongside with a stroke color, style and weight that can be
selected for the Pencil Tool as well as the Oval Tool, the
Rectangle Tool, the Ink Bottle Tool, the Pen Tool and the Line Tool
using the Property inspector (Window > Properties), there is
available one more option on the Property inspector-Scale. It beats
me for the whole week what is Scale intended for and what do
Normal, Horizontal and Vertical under Scale mean?
Would you please enlighten me on a matter noted above?
Awaiting your soonest response.
Best regards.

There are no quality issues so long as you scale the text proportionally. There may be other text-related caveats, depending upon VERSION and the specifics of your objects. For example, some versions of Illustrator scale tab stops in an absolutely bizarre manner.

Help! Can't paste into code view or property inspector

I'm experiencing a weird and extremely annoying bug in Dreamweaver CS6 -- I can't paste text from outside apps into DW's code view or into the property inspector (such as URLs).
Pasting doesn't work no matter the method: Ctrl + V, right-clicking or using the Edit menu. Pasting works normally in every other program. If I copy within Dreawmweaver, pasting works fine.
Does anyone have a solution for this? I'm running Win 8 and DW 12.1 through Creative Cloud. Searching the forums, I see others have reported the same issue. Some have been able to fix it by deleting the configuration file; that didn't fix the issue for me. I'd like to try reinstalling DW, but the Adobe Application Manager doesn't seem to allow that.
I began noticing this bug about two weeks ago. That might have been about the same time I updated to 12.1. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Cory K.

Adding to my last post, I used a clipboard format inspector called nclip (http://code.google.com/p/nclip/) to see if I could find a pattern between "what works" and "what doesn't".
There are two cases where I'm seeing paste-into-Dreamweaver CS6 fail:
Paste into Code View fails, but Paste into Design View works!
Paste into either Code View or Design View fails
I went through the list of programs that worked and didn't worked, using nclip to show what clipboard formats were being saved from each working and non-working source. It appears that DreamWeaver CS6 as of January 9, 2013 doesn't accept the most basic text clipboard formats:
CF_UNICODETEXT
CF_TEXT
CF-OEMTEXT
CF_LOCALE
If these are the only clipboard formats used by an app (for example, Window's venerable Notepad.exe), Dreamweaver doesn't appear to handle them. Most programmer-style text editors output just these formats, because they are presumed to be understood any application that handles text. These fail for both pasting into codeview and design view.
Interestingly, Chrome browser fails the code view test, but it does work in design view! It outputs the four clipboard types above, plus one more:
Custom Format: HTML Format
Hypothesis 1: Any application that puts HTML Format on the clipboard will paste into design view, but not necessarily code view.
Next, Visual Studio 2010 and Sticky Notes, which doesn't include HTML Format as a clip type, works for both code view and design view. They both output this type in addition to the basics:
Custom Format: Rich Text Format
Two programs that output Rich Text Format without HTML Format are Sticky Notes and WordPad. These both work with Code View and Design View. From these limited tests on my system, it appears that for Dreamweaver to accept a text paste from an outside program into Code View, that program must output Rich Text Format to the clipboard. Otherwise, it fails. Dreamweaver will accept HTML Format, but only in Design View. Firefox is an exception in that it don't export Rich Text Format, but still works with Code View. It might use OLE, though (Chrome doesn't seem to use OLE, and it breaks in code view).
Hypothesis 2: Any application that puts Rich Text Format on the clipboard will paste into design view AND code view.
If Dreamweaver is really ignoring the basic text clipboard formats, and it's not just my system configuration, then this is a bug. Probably something that got overlooked in testing.
To reproduce on Dreamweaver 12.1 build 5966:
Try copy/pasting text from Notepad.exe into Dreamweaver Code View (DWCV). This fails for me.
Try copy/pasting text from WordPad.exe into DWCV. This works!
Try copy/pasting text from Internet Explorer 9 or Firefox into DWCV. This works!
Try copy/pasting text from Chrome. This fails to paste into Code View, but does paste into Design View
The Code View workaround:
Use Firefox or Internet Explorer for your browser if you're copy/pasting source code.
If you're working from another text editor, try copy/pasting into intermediate programs Sticky Notes or WordPad, then copy/paste from there into Dreamweaver.
So that is my experience on Windows 7 64-bit. Anyone else experiencing the same thing?

Property inspector not working correctly

The property inspector in CS3 is not working correctly. When
I select text or any other object the property inspector does not
change for that object. But when I right mouse click on the
selected object it does. Do I need to change a setting?
Thanks!

Yes, me too. I can't find an answer to this anywhere.
If I right-click or double-click on an item the property
inspector shows it, but if I single click, nothing happens. It's
bad for productivity.

Adding a custom field to the property inspector in JDev 10.1.3

Hello All
I have a requirement where i have to add some custom entries to the property inspector.Say if we choose a text field in html there will be some standard values in property inspector.Now i want to add my own custom entry always on selection of text field.
Or i am developing a custom editor and i always want property inspector to display some values on certain selections.
I already went through the code samples provided for jdev 10.1.3 but i couldnt find one for property inspcetor.I also went through the oracle.ide.* packages.Could someone provide me a class or method from where i can start ???
Thanks in advance !!!

I was able to find the ide.jar file which contains all the necessary oracle.ide.* class files.
I had another query....basically there are 2 kinds of packages of the form javax.ide.* and oracle.ide.*
So suppose im faced with the situation of say adding menu items and defining actions on them then i guess it can be done in 2 ways using classes in javax.ide or oracle.ide.Can you elaborate how i should choose between these 2 packages.
Is it if im using the <jdeveloper-hook> i shud use oracle.ide.* and the regular jsr 198 schema then the javax.ide.*
Kindly clarify !!!! Thanks in advance

Problem when I click the "browse to file" icon in the property inspector

Please somebody help me. I am having a problem with Dreamweaver. When ever I click on the "browse to file" icon in the property inspector, it opens up a full size window on top of the Dreamweaver screen that can't be resize. This problem just started. I have shut down my entire system and restarted it and I am still having the problem. Can someone please help me. Thank-you

When irregular things begin to happen in DW, it's usually caused by a corrupted cache file. Below you'll find details on how to delete it.

Dreamweaver Help | Set text properties in the Property inspector

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/using/set-text-properties-property-inspector.html

The note at the bottom of the first section (About formatting text (CSS versus HTML)) says -
"You can combine CSS and HTML 3.2 formatting within the same page. Formatting is applied in a hierarchical manner: HTML 3.2 formatting overrides formatting applied by external CSS style sheets, and CSS embedded in a document overrides external CSS."
Please be aware that embedded CSS will ONLY override external CSS if the external CSS link is closer to the tag than the embedded CSS (i.e., it comes earlier in the flow of the document). If the embedded CSS comes first in the flow of the document, it will be overridden by the external CSS instead.

Not able to change values in the Property Inspector

Hello!
Can some one please help me with this. I was working in
Director when I noticed that all of a sudden I wasn't able to
change the values in the property inspector, specifially the sprite
properties such as the x and y coordinates and the width and
height. I'll type in a value and then I will get an error sound and
it will revert to the previous value. How can I fix this??
Thanks!

Hi Ringerz,
I've seen the PI lock up sometimes. What usually works is to
switch to List Viw
Mode. Never have trouble there. Then, close Director and
reopen. Think it's jus a
bug that hasn't been fixed yet.

Property inspector not loading

Hi
Newbie question. I am reviewing a mapping and want to see the join criteria between two objects. I'm told it's displayed in the Property Inspector, but for some reason the Property Inspector wont load when I go to View > Property Inspector. Nothing happens! All the other toolbars etc load fine.
Would this be a security issue?
Cheers

Hi,
Your OWB design client layout would have been changed. Delete the OWB preferences from your client PC and restart the design center.
Path to the OWB preferences is as shown below:
c:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\OWB
You can delete the system* folder in this directory and restart the design center.

Property inspector not displaying properties

Trivial problem: DAK why DW8 (8.0.2) Property inspector
sometimes displays just "Div ID, Class and an Edit CSS button" when
within a DIV? When in Code view in a correctly functioning
page, most of the code will have detailed HTML properties displayed
as usual. But in one section - which has multiple nested DIVs with
some other HTML inside, Property inspector displays only the DIV
details instead of the other HTML details - as if it were still
inspecting the DIV tag itself instead of being within the DIV?
The page validates with no errors and the DIVs are closed
with </div> in the right places.

Yes, me too. I can't find an answer to this anywhere.
If I right-click or double-click on an item the property
inspector shows it, but if I single click, nothing happens. It's

Property inspector not appearing

When i design a shape(a rectangle for example) the property inspector appears in the borrom of fireworks window.
If i import though a picture the property inspector does not appear.
Why that?
How i can fix this issue and the property inspector be appearing in the case also where an image is imported?
Or this cannot be done by definition in Fireworks.
Thanks.

There's always a way. It just may not be very "automatic" and depends on the bitmap you're trying to replicate.
In FW, you can trying using the bitmap selection tools to select various bitmap elements, then choose Select > Convert Marquee to Path.
Or you can use the vector tools to manually trace over the bitmap.
In AI, there is an Live Trace feature but depending on the complexity of your bitmap, you may not get exactly what you want, so manually editing/tweaking will be needed. Indeed you may end up with a far more complicated vector than you expect. You'll definitely need to experiment with this feature and the Live Paint counterpart to get what you want.
I believe Flash also has a trace feature.

Property inspector not working in fireworks

Hi folks,
I am using Fireworks CS 5.1 on a MAC Pro. I haven't used Fireworks in ages but I can't for the life of me figure out where the Property Inspector has gone. I'm creating a very simple button. I put a simple line of text on my page, a box and a line. I have selected each one and then clicked the Windows menu and clicked Properties. The Properties box appears but it has nothing in it. Doesn't seem to matter what I click on there are no properties showing up.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Sylvia

A lot of glitches in Fireworks can be solved by deleting the preferences file. First you will have to make sure your Library folder is viewable and you are accessing the root folder on your hard drive. In recent releases of Mac OS, it is hidden by default.
First, show your Hard Drive by following these directions:
In the Finder, choose Preferences from the Finder menu.
Click the General icon on the toolbar.
Select "Hard disks" in the "Show these items on the desktop:" section.
Close the Finder Preferences window.
Next, you'll have to unhide the library folder by following these instructions:
In the Finder, choose View > Show View Options (or press Command-J).
Near the bottom of the resulting View-Options palette is a setting called Show Library Folder. Enable this option. Your Library folder is immediately visible.
In that folder, find the Preferences folder. Then in the preferences folder, find the file with this name (or similar): "com.adobe.Fireworks.12.0.0.plist" and delete it.
Restart your machine and Fireworks and your problem may be solved.

Property Inspector for Locked Content Doesn't Set Content Dirty

I have a property inspector for my locked content. When the
user sets a new value in the inspector, the orig attribute of the
MM:BeginLock tag is updated appropriately. Unfortunately,
Dreamweaver doesn't see that change as having modified the document
in a meaningful way, so it doesn't enable the Refresh Design View
buttons. Hitting F5, the hotkey for Refresh Design View, has no
effect.
Do you have a suggestion how I can make Dreamweaver think the
content is modified?

I have an Adobe Flash Professionals digital classroom book and was following all steps easily until it ask me to select the text tool and change it from classic to tfl in the property inspector. I looked and all that drops down is dynamic, static, and input. Where is the TFL and Classic ? I watched adobe learning center but he was using CS5. Can anyone please help?

Hi,
Do you use Flash CS6 to follow the instructions in the classroom book? If yes, then you can find it under text drop down for an AS3 Document as shown below
If you follow the instruction in Flash CC or Flash CC2014 then you will not find this option as this is deprecated.

Output text show Null when access value through property inspector in ADF

Hi,
we declare two UIComponents one is Deptno which is InputComboBoxListofValues and othre is Dname as output text.
we create ManagedBean called "deptBean"(which is in BackingBeanScope) and create a method inside bean "deptnoChanged".
ValueChangeListener of Deptno pointing to deptnoChanged method of deptBean.
Inside deptBean we declare a variable private String departmentName which are having setter and getters.
we can Initialize departmentName based on valueChangeEvent in bean level
for example:
if (deptno=10)
setdepartmentName("Accounts");
else
setdepartmentName("Sales");
Now we Can Access the Value of departmentName.
The UIComponent(output text field) such as Dname in JSP Page we set value (in property Inspector)
_#{backingBeanScope.deptBean.departmentName}_
when we execte the JSP Page Dname show Null as output. but output we expect as Accounts or Sales only.
Please help us, how to resolve the problem
Thanks,
kumar.

when we execte the JSP Page Dname show Null as output. but output we expect as Accounts or Sales only.The value to be got while debugging should be via EL expressions and stored somewhere.
If the value Dname is bound to the backing bean then you can view its value in the property inspector using
#{<BeanScope>.<BeanName>.value} or the like

Font change in property inspector

Good day all
I would like to change the font used in Dreamweaver MX's
windows, such as the property inspector. For example when a layout
table is selected the font used in the property inspector to
indicate width, height, cell pad, cell space etc appears pixelated
making it difficult to read, for a beginner like me. I have tried
altering the PC's screen resolution but it makes no difference and
It is only the floating windows, such as the property inspector and
objects window, that the problem shows itself- the rest of the
Dreamweaver window, such as the menus, appear ok.
Does anybody know how to change it???
Many thanks in advance
Chris

It depends very much on precisely what you mean in the above.
I will assume
that when you say 'one line' you mean 'one paragraph'. to do
that, you
would create a rule like this -
#content p.special { font-size:16px; }
and then apply the 'special' class to the paragraph in
question by selecting
it with the tag selector, right clicking to get the context
menu, and using
"Set class to -> special".
Or, you could click in the paragraph tag in question and use
the 'Style'
selector on the Property inspector to select "special".
If, instead, you meant one line within a paragraph, then you
would have to
select that text, and surround it with a span tag (using
Ctrl-t). Apply the
'special' class to the span tag, and adjust your rule like
this -
#content span.special { font-size:16px; }
