Workaround for the Firefox height="100%" bug

Hi,
Does anyone have a workaround / solution to the bug which affects Firefox which means you can't specify height=100% in the wrapper? The one which means you have to specify an absolute height.
Maybe even better - does anyone know when it's getting fiex?
Tks
Alex

The problem is that firefox browsers don't support percentage based heights. See...
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=Part2_DevApps_1.html
If you set everything to 100% in your wrapper and set your app to 100% in the code it works fine (ie resizes) in every browser except firefox. It's not working correctly in firefox 3.5 either.

  • "Adobe has found a solution or workaround for the recent crash in Adobe Flash CC" ...not really.

    Hi guys,
    My Flash CC crashes all the time, it's always been doing it since when I started using it on CS4, and I've somewhat given up on this bug being fixed, it crashes at least 20-30 times every document I create. I'm using a Wacom Bamboo Fun Pen&Touch tablet and drawing a lot, I think the problem is that it can't handle this much drawing.
    Anyways, it just crashed and for the first time after reopening I found this nice message from Flash:
    "Adobe has found a solution or workaround for the recent crash in Adobe Flash CC.
    Please click here for further details."
    Excited, I clicked on it! At last, a solution! Amazing!
    ...but it just points to http://www.adobe.com/
    ... I don't understand.
    What's happening? I'm genuinely puzzled.
    Also, anybody else experiencing frequent crashes?
    Thanks!
    Ciao!

    Yes, this is not good -- you're already mad when it crashes, then "We found a solution!" But, for me clicking on the link does nothing - no link even to adobe, just a tease - nothing opens.
    It's bad enough crashing a couple times a day and losing work (I do save every chance I get), but then to get taunted with this bogus message, it's discouraging and exactly the best 'user experience' for a really expensive product from company that is all about helping professionals create good design/user experience ..
    I like the way this is headed though! it just doesn't work right now.

  • Any workarounds for the 2880 pixel size limit?

    I have a client that would like a Flash animation that's 5440
    pixels wide, to span 3 widescreen monitors for a tradeshow
    presentation. Flash won't let me make the stage any bigger than
    2880 - does anyone know any ways around that limit?
    I Googled it and found out that you used to be able to scale
    the SWF beyond 2880 in an HTML file, and it would show well using
    Flash Player 7, but apparently that trick no longer works in
    Players 8+.
    Any other ways to make a single SWF that can span 3 large
    monitors?
    Thanks in advance,
    - Frank

    The problem here is the legacy flash document size constraint of 2880 x 2880 pixels. Why is this limitation still in place? Most screen have landscape orientation and we have this square constraint that turns out to be a waste if you are developing for larger screen displays and anything that is 4:3 or 16:9. Something does not add up here. What if someone needs to make a dual wide screen HD show that measured 3840 x 1080 pixels? We can do setup documents at 3840 x 1080 pixels in PowerPoint, PDF, Silverlight (at least this is what I have read regarding Silverlight), but not in Flash. Why not?
    If Flash is a platform… then it needs to spread its wings a bit and embrace all the potential uses that are non-web. Flash represents multimedia delivery to millions, but shackling it to the 2880 x 2880 pixel limitation for a document size is problem for many people now and looming for those working toward have the flash engine as a core component in media delivery. At least give us a dual Wide screen monitor resolution of 3840 x 1080 pixels instead of a square of 2880 x 2880 pixels – which no one really uses (at least I have not seen any sqaure screens lately). Hey, if Adobe decided to shave off on the unused pixels from the 2880 height (2880 – 1080 = 1800) of the format you get an additional 1800 pixels that could applied where it is needed – to the width of the document size… giving us a 4680 x 1080 pixel document. This could then be used for immersive simulation, game situations, and real-world wide-screen experiences.
    Sorry I don't have an answer, just the same question. "Any workarounds for the 2880 pixel size limit?"

  • Is there a workaround for the missing global track chords?

    Is there a workaround for the missing global track chords?  i.e. will Apple loops follow the chord progression in a track?

    I found sort of a work around.  I still have Logic Pro 9.  It turns out that if you go into global tracks, analyze the chords then go back to logic pro x the chord progression is preserved.  So the information is preserved there just seems no way to create it in X.

  • Workaround for the Fade/Appear blocky text problem in IE

    Just wanted to share with folks a workaround for the IE
    "blocky text" problem that you see when using Fade effects like the
    one used in this example:
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/data_region/DetailRegionEffectsSample.html
    It turns out if you set the 'background' CSS property on the
    element you are fading, that IE properly renders the text. So to
    fix the effects sample above, all you would have to do is modify
    this CSS rule in the file to place a background color on the
    description region to get things to look good in IE:
    #description {
    opacity: 0;
    filter: alpha(opacity=0);
    background: white;
    So if folks have been avoiding the use of effects because it
    makes things look terrible in IE, you now have a workaround.
    --== Kin ==--

    I was using spry's AppearFade effect to transition between
    "slides" in what equates to a viewstack that I created.
    Then I noticed that it would take bold text in IE and make it
    look all smudgy or blurry.
    Well, after working on it for a while, I got to thinking,
    "This problem is specific to text rendered in MicroSofts
    browser"... "Hmmm, I wonder".
    So, I tried using this style rule: [ font-family:"MS Sans
    Serif",Arial, Geneva, sans-serif; ].
    Lo and behold, feed the stupid MS browser an MS font and it
    does not blur the text.
    I just wanted to get this our there. Because someone might
    want to solve this in a way where they don't have to set a
    background color...

  • Airport Extreme- anybody have a workaround for the lack of Wake on LAN ?

    I've read in a number of places that the Airport Extreme (and other Apple routers) don't allow for the standard Wake on LAN packet to wake a sleeping Mac.
    Does anybody know of a workaround for the Airport Extreme that might allow for waking a sleeping Mac on the LAN remotely ?
    Thanks,

  • Better workaround for the whine problem

    I have discovered a workaround for the commonly reported electronic whine in the MacBook Pro.
    As most will know, if you open PhotoBooth and run it in the background it will get rid of the whine. I also noticed that the same worked in ANY application that uses the iSight.
    So, looking around the Apple website for widgets I stumbled across this . . . .
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/webcams/mirror.html
    It solves the problem!!!!! Runs in the background, in the Dashboard, takes up no resources also!!
    Regards,
    Tom

    Didn't read that whole thread on the issue did you?
    It also kills your battery life.
    The issue I don't believe is related to the CPU directly but is related to the overall power drain on the system..it seems anything that causes the system to use more power 'solves' the problem.

  • Can the next version please allow for the line height to be zero in a text box? I can only go down to .01?

    I want to create a flipping calendar. I had this brilliant idea of putting each date 01 02 03, etc in one text box, with a hard return in between, and then set the line height to zero. Then set the type to appear one paragraph at a time. It would eliminate 20 animation steps. It worked beautifully except that I can't get the line height to set to zero. It will only go to .01. Bleh!
    So please, Can the next version allow for the line height to be zero in a text box?
    Also, separate timelines would be nice instead of one long string so it would be easier to have more than one animation happening at once.
    Just a thought.
    PS - I also noticed it would be nice to have the option of having the first line in a text box dissappear or dissolve or flip out before the next one comes in, rather than just each building in on top of each other.

  • Is there a workaround for the Safari "clickable hidden content" bug?

    Hi,
    I'm encountering a bug in Safari where hidden content (non-visible content hidden with the CSS attribute overflow:hidden) to be clickable. I did some googling and found other people who are having this same problem:
    http://www.dmxzone.com/forum/go/?35908
    http://archivist.incutio.com/viewlist/css-discuss/76660
    http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2005-November/000496.html
    But no one seems to have a workaround for this. The last post contains a reply by an Apple developer saying he checked in a bug fix for this, but his reply was posted two years ago and I'm still seeing the problem.
    Does anyone know of a workaround for this? Hacks or kludges welcome.
    Cheers,

  • Is there a workaround for the thumbnail regeneration issue in CS5?

    Hullo.
    A friend uses my old version of CS5 and she is stuck with ACR 6.7, because this is the last version available in CS5.
    She seems to have huge problems in Bridge with the thumbnail regeneration bug described here, for instance: Cropping to an edge confuses Adobe Bridge?
    Concretely, although she has a relatively powerful machine, she is unable to work because there are always tens and tens of thumbnails being generated and her eight virtual cores completely fill the disk bandwidth, making Bridge impossible to use. I am not 100% sure that it is exactly this bug, but everything seems to correspond perfectly well: hundreds of DNG files with lens correction activated and very many cropped manually.
    Now, this is a confirmed bug of ACR 6.7 until ACR 8.2. She cannot switch to the latter without purchasing a newer version of Photoshop/Bridge.
    Does Adobe provide any fix for this bug in CS5? Could someone kindly point me to it? Her version of Bridge is simply unusable as is....
    If the answer above is no, I would be interested to know if this seems legal (not to say ethical...) to anybody: she is (otherwise) pretty happy with CS5 and she would need to buy a new licence for the sole and exclusive reason that the product Adobe sold me has a known and proven bug which makes it virtually useless in her setting.
    Thanks,
    p.

    There are two similar bugs:
    The LPC+crop bug started with ACR 6.1 and was fixed in 8.2.
    The LPC mystery bug started with ACR 7.3 and was fixed in 8.6.
    Both bugs cause repeated thumbnail extractions in Bridge on some images with Lens Profile Corrections enabled.
    As you are on ACR 6.7 it can only be the first bug. The only workaround I know is to ensure that the crop does not touch the edge of the corrected image. A few pixels gap will do it. Also, it helps to keep less images in a folder--but this can't be avoided when using Collections or Finds.
    I'd imagine that Adobe won't fix CS5 just for this. Presumably there's something in the smallprint which admonishes them from responsibility after the shelf life of the product ends. To be fair, it's not like they fixed it straight away in CS6, unlike the Bridge CS5 database bug (thanks, Adobe). They were only able to reproduce the fault in summer 2013.

  • FR Studio - Is there a workaround for the issue with referencing data from a grid with a different DB connection and different # of dimensions?

    Hi,
    I am trying to reference a column in a different grid with a different database connection. I did some research in the forums, and it seems like this is a known issue with FR Studio. The issue is that if the 2 different database connections have different # of dimensions, then the reference will throw an error.
    For example, what I'm trying to do is below:
    In grid2.column[A], I have the following formula:
    grid1.column[A]
    The result is an error.
    The ultimate goal is to have a basic variance formula in the grid between grid1 and grid2, which have different database connections with a different # of dimensions. Is there a workaround at all to this bug? The example of the basic formula is below:
    grid1.column[A] - grid2.column[A] 
    Any help is much appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Tiffany

    Thanks for the detailed response Mike.
    The issue with trying it in Grid1 vs Grid2 is that Grid1's DB connection has more dimensions than Grid2's DB connection. I can't change the DB connection to a database with more dimensions because you have to be able to map all dimensions from the existing DB connection  (Grid1) to the new DB connection (Grid2). This isn't possible, so instead I have to map Grid2 (less dimensions) to Grid1 (more dimensions). It just ignores the extra dimensions from Grid1. Does that make sense?
    Thanks again for your responses. It's very much appreciated.

  • Can i change the behaviour for the firefox menu so lists open instead of opening the 1st option?

    is it possible to adjust the way the orange firefox menu behaves when you click an option?
    currently hovering over an option opens the list underneath it(such as a list of bookmarks for the bookmarks option, or a list of visited pages for the history option) and clicking it opens the first item in the list.
    i'd like to change this so the list is opened when you click an option too, since it's not possible to hover using a touchscreen.
    it's rather annoying when the bookmarks management screen opens if all i want to do is bookmark the current page(which isn't possible from that screen)

    i just downloaded what seems to be a preview/test version for the new interface(the browser calls itself UX) and its menu is a bit more touch friendly.
    it does seem to have 1 major issue, if you put the bookmarks button inside the menu the bookmarks list can only use the height of the menu instead of the full height of the screen.
    jscher2000: tapping the little arrow works, but it's too small to comfortably use.
    i'll try out UX for now.

    Hi john,
    For this issue, I can reproduce it in my test team site, I haven’t seen the CU update includes this issue.
    So, I would suggest you to use the workaround, set a friendly url for the subsite in the term store management settings page as described in the blog.
