Active Area and Slices in a button

I would like to know more about Active Area and creating a slice in FW. Why we need it and how we use it in a workflow.
Also about setting it. Is it set all by itself when we create a button or we have to open Active Area item of a drop down menu in symbol properties window?

An Active Area is the area of a metallic rectifier that acts as the rectifying junction and conducts current in the forward direction. Just kidding. :-) It's the area of a web page that responds to the viewer's cursor, generated automatically when you create a button and add states to it. You can do that via the properties panel, by double clicking on the button symbol to activate Fireworks symbol editing mode.

Active area is getting closed as soon as you click anywhere during Inplace editing

During inplace editing of Title component , if I double click at the the component
it will open orange color active area and if I click inside the active area it will remain there and it will close only if I click outside the active area.
But now when i am making a composit component which statically include two title component and for inplace editing to work node should be present so i have created cq:template node which make two node , one for each title component. Now when I double click on any one of the title component then it is opening orange color
active area for inplace editing and i am able to do it but active area is getting closed as soon as i click anywhere, be it inside the active area or outside the
area, ideally it should close only when i click outside the active area. does anybody any idea on it?

Hi John,
I am using the web version. I am getting this error in Java version 7. I just tried in another machine with Java version 6 and I was able to add the member without any issue.
Your question answered my question :-) . Thanks a lot.
Is that meant that I should not use Java 7.

I can not restore and upgrade my Iphone 4. When i plug in to computer itune's restore and check for update buttons are not active. What is that mean?

Razmee,
Guess what? After posting, I read another thread on this topic where someone said they went to an Apple store and the tech person there added the optional username and password in the Outgoing Mail Server boxes, and then reset the phone again. Although I had tried resetting and restarting a few times today, I had NOT reset it after entering the username and password into the optional fields.
When I entered my username and password into the optional fields, the iPhone entered checks (ticks) to the right of every entry; it had not done this earlier. (I didn't reset at this time, and the outgoing mail would still not transmit).
So just now, I reset it and the outgoing email was sent!
Thanks to you and this forum, it's a great ending to a few frustrating days.
I hope this message helps others. Not only does everything have to be entered correctly in the respective boxes; but once everything is entered and you press the "Done" button, every box should then have a check mark next to it and then you must reset the phone.

Trophy:Back button activation area not as wide?

i dont know if its supposed to be designed this way but with my back button i have to push the screen/button about 1mm from the left side of that arrow. but with the search button i can push/activate from the area about 3mm on the right of the image. testing it from the sides of the screen it seems like the search button has a wider activation area. is yours like that too?

today i tried the phones in two of my local vzw stores and the area you have to press is similar to my phone. the area you need to push the back button is farther from the left compared to the right with the search button. i wont be able to get a replacement for my current trophy yet. (gotta call #611 later)(for that high pitch tone when the screen is on (i got a post about my issue in the forums))

Use a polygon hotspot on top of the button slice to create
the active area.

Button active area does not match Photoshop layer size

I have created several text-only buttons for a menu using Photoshop. When I reveal the active area in Encore, usually the bounding box for the active area is correct and goes right around the text, but for several of the buttons, the bounding box is way wider than the text. There is a simple graphical highlight that is also part of each layer group, but the bounding box is way larger than where that appears. There is nothing in any layer in the button group that accounts for the extreme width of the bounding box for the button in Encore. Any ideas?
I have deleted the offending button groups and copied one that didn't have the problem, only to have the same extra-large bounding-box appear. Quite strange.

All right, I finally got around to looking at this again, and, as expected (by me, even) there was a stray pixel or something in the highlight layer. I did a ⌘-T to get a transform bounding box in PS, and saw that for the highlight layer, it went way off to the left. Weird. So I then highlighted the area where I thought it might be and applied a Hue/Saturation to see if I could bring it out a little, since I couldn't see it. I tried raising and lower the brightness with a transparent background, a white background, and a black background. I couldn't see it on any background, even zoomed in to 800%. I still don't know what it was, but I just drew a marquee around the highlight that I wanted, inverted the selection and deleted, and now the bounding box for the button is as it should be in Encore.
The extra weird thing is that this seemed to happen on random buttons in my design. In PS, I would create a new button group by duplicating the one above it, then move it straight down below the previous button. I replaced the text and then moved the highlight a bit to the left or the right to be in the correct spot in relation to the new bit of text. And that duplicted layer group which had the correct bounding box with no extraneous bits in the highlight layer would then all of a sudden have the incorrect bounding box and apparently some little bit that PS could see, though I couldn't. Strange.
So, still a bit mysterious, but thanks for your help and ideas.

When using private browsing to view image results in Safari 5.1.3, only the first two rows of results are visible, the following four or so rows display greyed out place holders, and the safe search button is inoperable. Suggestions?

When using private browsing to view image results in Safari 5.1.3, only the first two rows of results are visible, the following four or so rows display greyed out place holders, the remainder of the results page is blank, and the safe search button is inoperable. When I turn off private browsing and refresh the page, everything works again.
Anyone else having this problem?

I have got the same behaviour after the last Safari Update to 5.1.3. It seems that Safari now handles some scripts in a new way. If you debug the Google Website, you will see, that there is some Javascript Error, that seems to prevent to write into local cache. After some searching I wasn't able to finde a solution for this problem, other then disabling Javascript while private browsing to prevent the script loading. You then are able to use Google with the old layout. The option to disable JavaScript can be found in the Menu "Developer", wich has to be enabled in Safari in the options first.
In my opinion this is a bug that is now occuring, because Apple changed something in private browsing and that has to be fixed by Google now, to run again. Or we will have to wait for 5.1.4, as you can read online Apple will change and bugfix the javascript engine in that version, perhaps this fixes the problem as well. I hope so!
If anyone is in the developer program perhaps you could test this with the beta of 5.1.4 and tell us if it works.

Did you check your security software (firewall)?
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Is there a way to keep the checkmark or initials (Sign toolbar) active so that I can check a whole list of items without going back and forth to the button?

There is another way to "popup" the screen. Mute and then
unmute the cellphone.

I have a new IPAD. There are no "list", "date," and "add a reminder" buttons on the Reminder app. There are also no "calendar" and "add an event" bottons on the Calendar App. Why?

I just bought a new IPAD. There are no "list", "date," and "add a reminder" buttons on the Reminder App. There are also no "calendar" and "add an event" buttons on the Calendar App. Why? Is there a way to add either a reminder or an event?

For the reminders app - just tap on an open space on the ruled paper window under the heading in order to create a new reminder. Or tap on the + sign in the upper right corner of the app. You do not have the + sign on the app?
For the calendars app to go Settings>iCloud>Calendars>On. Toggle the setting on and off and the + sign should appear in the lower right corner of the calendars app. Tap the + sign to create a new event.

What is Retro active rebates and how there are configured

Hi,
What it means by retro active rebates and how there are configured. Please also explain how rebates settlement will happen...
Regards
Sankar

Hi,
Retroactive Rebate Processing:
You can create rebate agreement for which the validity period start date lies in the past. The system takes in to account all the rebate relevant billing documents that were created between the validity start date & the date you created the rebate agreement. In addition to the credit memo request, the system creates a correction sales doc (type B2) automatically for this amount.
Create the rebate agreement in the usual way. The system recognizes that the rebate agreement is retroactive.

Raghav

I installed Firefox 4 and the Orange App button plus the reload and stop are not showing

I installed Firefox 4 and the Orange App button plus the reload and stop are not showing.

You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden, so you need to hide the Menu bar to get the new appearance. 
If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or hold down the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily. 
You can also place the Tab Bar on top.
* View > Toolbars : [ ] Menu Bar
* View > Toolbars : [X] Tabs on Top
Firefox 4 uses a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is positioned at the right end of the location bar. 
During the page load process it shows as a Stop button and after the loading has finished the button is changed to a Reload button. 
If you type in the location bar then that button becomes a Go button. 
You can middle-click that Reload button to duplicate the current tab to a new tab.
To move the Stop and Reload buttons to their position to the left of the location bar you can use these steps:
* Open the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window to move the Stop and Reload button out of the location bar.
* Drag the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position to the left of the location bar.
* Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
* Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise to get two distinct buttons.
