Add or Edit Text Dialog Box Disappeared

I am attempting to add text to my pdf using the add or edit text tool in Acrobat Pro X. However, the dialog box that allows me to change fonts, size, color, etc. has disappeared. Does anyone know how to make the dialog box come back?

Hi,
This is a new problem. It started about 2 days before I posted the question. I have not updated my Acrobat recently and I was previously able to use the dialog box with no problem. I have tried in several different documents and the dialog box is not showing up.
Thanks for your assistance.

Text dialog box instead of Report tab

I'm using TS3.5 and customizing the LabVIEW version of the OI. I would like to do two things. (1) Make the Test Sequence and Test Execution tabs visible at all times. Currently, the Execution tab (along with the Report tab) appear when "Test UUT" is selected or Executions is selected in the Listbox to the left of the SequenceView control. (2) I would like the report information to appear on the Sequence and Executions tabs as a Text Dialog box, to the right of the SequenceView control (that currently displays Step,Status,Flow Control).
Can someone get me started?

Hey Mr. Bean,
1) There is a subvi called Configure Event Callbacks in the block diagram. Inside of here there is a callback VI for the UIMessage handling. It is called Page Change CBack. Inside of there you'll see a subvi called Show Appropriate Tabs. This is where the tabs are being set for which one is shown. You can tweak this code to do what you expect.
2) You can just copy and paste the ReportView control onto the execution Tab. You will have to change some things in the block diagram to get it to look right. Like the code in resize controls subvi so that your execution control doesn't overshadow the new reportview control and you'll most likely have to make the new reportview control ConnectReportView. You can see how this is done by looking at the other one.

Edit Audio dialog box won't open

I cannot get the Edit Audio dialog box open -- I've double-clicked and right-clicked the audio in the timeline, tried the menu Audio > Edit > Slide..., poked around in Settings and Preferences but cannot find anything amiss in there.
I don't get any error message. Nothing happens at all.
I'm using Captivate 4 on a Windows XP machine, I've done a few projects before and never encountered this problem.
Any ideas??
Urgent help would be much appreciated -- have to get two project done in the next 24 hours.
Thanks in advance

Hi there
Try clobbering your preferences file.
Close Captivate
Open Windows Explorer
Navigate to the location below:
C:\Documents and Settings\*YOUR USER NAME HERE*\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Captivate
Delete the file named captivate_v40.dat
Restart Captivate and see if the problem is solved.
Cheers... Rick

When these files were ompoterted all the history does not show in the module just the import. Did I import wrong causing all the history not to show??

Hi Dick,
That sounds like normal behaviour with Raw files to me. They usually go straight through the Camera Raw pipeline into Photoshop. Rendered files like Tiff and Jpeg have the Original/Copy/Lightroom Adjustments dialog.
I'm not sure what you mean by History because on Import, there is only one history state: Import.

Open/save dialog boxes disappear after leopard upgrade

hi, since upgrading to leopard, i cant open or save in logic. I can open existing documents from finder and they load ok, and i can create a new document but if i open or save from the file menu, no open/save window appears. The options in the logic drop down menus are grayed out (including quit) as though the dialog box is open somewhere but not visible. if i drag the main window to one side nothing is there and i cant quit unless I force quit the app. i've moved to different spaces but the dialog box isnt anywhere to be seen. Anyone got any ideas? thanks, dren.

This has been sooooooo annoying!! I decided to revert to tiger as I would much prefer to have logic working than the extra features in leopard

Firefox 3.6.8 won't open local php files. It opens the save as text dialog box instead.

When I try to open a local php file on my MAC hard drive with FF 3.6.8, the save file dialog box opens instead. It says: You have chosen to open index.php which is a TextEdit.app Document. I do not have this problem with Firefox 3.5.11.
I have tried:
opening the file directly from Firefox as well as
double clicking the file (which is the most common way).
I have also tried changing the file "open with" preference to "open with Firefox." That did not work either.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
I'm on a MAC OS 10.5.8
Thnx, Nick

You have to delete mimeTypes.rdf.
You can find it here (Windows XP): C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Aplication Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default.

Text/image boxes disappearing when printed to PDF [CS2, Win]

Strange things are happening today: Text boxes and image boxes, perfectly visible in InDesign -- are completely disappearing when printed to PDF.
The first time I printed, everything came out fine. Then after I moved some stuff around and reprinted, things disappeared.
Any insight would be much appreciated.

Yes, that worked. Thanks!
Any idea why this happened?

PS CS6 OS X - "Place" dialog box disappears when I try to drag a folder into it.

We are moving to CS6 at work currently. In our workflow, we need to move from folder to folder (hundreds of them) often, and I do this quickly by dragging the desired folder into the open/save/place dialogs. Doing this immediately takes me to the folder I need without requiring me to navigate there manually.
In CS6, when I need to replace contents of a smart object (which I need to do proably 30 times every day), I right-click on the smart object's name and select "Replace Contents". A "Place" dialog opens and I can drag the folder of the asset I need into the dialog, but the dialog disappears when I click off of Photoshop to drag the folder. This happens in all screen modes.
What can I do here? It is impractical to keep source folders in the left bar of the Place dialog (there are literally hundreds of folders I use).
CS5 let me drag files from the Finder into the open/save/place dialogs. CS6 apparently does not.
Thanks

Try this:
1) Open Photoshop CS6
2) Open an existing file by double clicking it or opening with dialog)
3) Select File > Open, and click on the Desktop
The Open dialog does not vanish?
This is Mac only. Never tried it in Windows.

The edit text options box not displaying

The Font family, size, alignment box does not appear anymore. What happened?

Hi champsters,
Is this occurring with a specific pdf?
What version of Acrobat are you using?
Have you tried updating it to the latest patch and checked?

Why are active menus and dialog boxes disappearing/being overwritten by the active tab/page content?

Frequently when selecting a download directory/filename in the "save to" dialog the entire dialog is overwritten with the active page content. It appears the dialog has closed, but if you tab through the dialog the active field/control is written but the rest of the dialog remains hidden/overwritten. This has also happened with the "open file" dialog. The the drop down menus on the menu bar are occasionally being overwritten after being activated/pulled down. I have not been able to determine a common/specific event causing this problem.

I seem to have fixed it by putting <div class="clearfloat"></div> after the navigation bar?

How to add shortcuts to the [File] Open dialog box?

Is it possible to programatically add shortcuts to the dialog box that opens when you press the browse button attached to a file/path control? I'd like to be able to add to the list which includes, My Recent Documents, Desktop, My Documents, My Computer, My Network Places.

Setting the Places bar on the Windows Common Dialog will require modifications to the registry. To change the Places bar, refer to this webpage on WindowsITPro:
WinITPro: How can I edit the default Places bar quick links in Windows XP's and Windows 2000's Open...
Then, you’ll want to look at the Write Configuration Settings File.vi (LabVIEW 7.1\examples\file\config.llb\Write Configuration Settings File.vi) for an example of how to write information to a configuration file using the configuration VIs.
Best of luck!
Hope this helps!

The bookmark dialog box no longer opens when i am trying to add a bookmark.

windows xp pr0 sp3. firefox 3.6.12.
the bookmark dialog box disappeared and i can't get it back. i deleted the 2 places files. i checked and they are not read only. thank you in advance

This issue can be caused by an extension or plugin that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Can't enter text in certain forum dialog boxes (java?)

On certain forums and sites, I am unable to click on a dialog box and enter text. When I click in the box, it either highlights the line or the whole box but does not allow me to enter any text - the keyboard does not appear. I do not have an option to paste text either. The text/dialog boxes look similar to the one I am writing in right now. For my online classes, I use Moodle, and that's one of the sites that causes this issue. It was an issue also on my iPhone but I was hopeful that it would work differently on the iPad.
There are two methods I've found to enter text. One is through HTML and the second is unreliable -sometimes if I click in the box while I refresh, I can get the keyboard to pop up.
Any thoughts or suggestions? Java is enabled and I've tried clearing everything.

According to what I read on another forum entry - to do with WYSIWYG editors - this is a problem with Safari. Apparently, it doesn't handle Javascript correctly in all cases. I administer Joomla sites and Safari on a standard machine, let alone an iPad, gives me a lot of grief. So, on any other machine I use Chrome or FireFox. Sadly, this isn't an option on an iPad. We're stuck with Safari - whether we like it or not!
