Brush/selection not lining up with cursor

I have CS4 on my home and work computers, one of which is a Mac (Leopard) and one of which is a PC (Windows 7), and for some reason at a certain point in my using any program in the suite (Photoshop most of all), all of a sudden the cursor starts registering as about 15px below where it actually is. That is, when I try to select a path, for example, or to make a marquee selection, the place where Photoshop registers a click is about 15px below the point of the cursor. It makes it very hard to select paths especially, because I have to gauge where it will think I'm clicking by estimation.
It doesn't matter how much I zoom in, it's not relative pixels, it's monitor pixels. And it seems to connect to memory usage or something because it only starts happening after a while of using the program.
This may just be a hard problem to search for, but I can't seem to find any reference to anyone else having this problem. I have it on two entirely separate machines with two entirely separate copies of the program and two entirely different operating systems. If I'm coloring art and I try to use the fill tool, half the time it will color all of my line art instead of the small space between the lines I'm trying to fill in. It's quite an annoying problem. Anyone have any idea what could be causing it?

Thanks for the suggestions!
I'm using 11.0.1, though... I try to make sure everything's up-to-date, but I just checked to be sure that was the version I was using, and it is. I'll try the F key solution next time it comes up but I'm skeptical, just because I often cycle through those different modes anyway, and as far as I've noticed it hasn't done anything to fix that problem.
I can't imagine it's graphics-card related, as I'm getting this on two entirely different computers, operating systems, graphics cards.
I'm just surprised that I'm getting this on two computers and apparently nobody else is experiencing it at all.

Selection tool not lining up with cursor

Hi Forum
On numerous occassions, when using cs4 and the selection tools, lasso and magic wand, amongst others, the selection point, is out of allignment with the cursor. What is wrong, and how do i sort the problem out?
Thanx for your help.

Data not getting bind with cursor

Hi,
Database: Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.6.0 - 64bit
OS: Windows Server 2003
Consider following procedure:
Proc P1() as
cursor c(in_par varchar2) is select distinct col1, col2 from Table1 where col3 = in_par;
begin
for rec_c in c('X') loop
end loop;
exception
end;
Problem: In most of the execution, the value 'X' passed in cursor c get bind with col3 in where clause and get the desired result. However, in some cases, the value 'X' does not get bind with col3 in where clause. I don't know the steps to re-produce the issue, but it occurs once in a while.
On querying v$sql_bind_capture, i get 'NULL' in value_string whenever this problem occurs. Otherwise, I get 'X' in v$sql_bind_capture. No exception is thrown anytime.
What may cause miss of binding constant literal 'X' to cursor?

Have not seen this error before - PL/SQL not binding SQL statements containing PL/SQL variables, correctly. What at times happen is no bind at all due to name collision. Using the same name for a PL/SQL variable as a SQL column in the SQL statement and scope being such that with name resolution, the SQL column gets preference. This of course does not seem to be the case here.
What could be happening is that a null variable is being passed as the bind value.
You can also have a look at the Metalink/support.oracle.com for any notes or bugs on this behaviour. Knee-jerk reaction from my side that this is too a common issue to be an actual PL/SQL bug... (would have reared its head a long time ago)
In cases like this I like to make sanity checks - reduce the problem to its bare basics with a test case and see if that works. Then gradually increase its complexity and see when it brakes, if at all.

Number fields not lining up with heading.

I add a number field to my report.
The heading and field are right justified and lined up using a guideline.
When I preview the report, the number and heading are not lined up.
Any ideas? Thanks! Linda

Greetings Linda, if you are having problems with the guide lines you better remove them and align the objects manually or you can make use of grid and snap the objects to the grid. These options are available in u201Cviewu201D menu. I hope this solves your problem.

Excel 2013 not switching cells with cursor keys

Hello
I am currently having trouble with excel 2013 x64
When i use the cursor keys like in earlier versions of excel, instead of navigating through cells, the whole sheet scrolls by that cell in one direction. I am not sure if I have changed the settings or not and any help making it work like older versions
of excel and the 32 bit edeition.
Thank you

Maybe you have accidentally pressed the Scroll Lock key (sometimes the key says ScrLk. Most keyboards have a light to indicate that Scroll Lock is on. Pressing the key again turns it off.

Laggy timeline, playhead line not lined up with playhead after 8.1 update!

Is anyone else experiencing this??? See attached screen shot. The white line is sticking all over the time indicator resulting in what you see below, also, the playhead line is not actually lined with the playhead itself, making frame edits completely impossible! It is driving me crazy. Have cleared all caches and deleted all preview files though this is clearly not causing this. It would seem to be a graphics card/driver issue with PP 8.1 as everything was working just fine before I applied the update this morning......silly me :-/ I am running a Windows 7 Pro 64bit, 24 core workstation with 64GB of RAM and a Quadro 5000 GPU with 2GB RAM. Help!

I'm having the exact same issue - again only since updating to the latest version. So I too am interested in a solution!
In my case I have Quadro K1000M graphics - no warp stabiliser , and it's already switched to software-only.

CS3 cropping box not keeping up with cursor ?

Hi all -
My question may seem very basic, but my use of CS3 is very basic. I use it only to scan in pictures or tattoos that I want to post on my website. To clean them up a bit I crop the edges as close to the design as I can using the cropping tool. I never set anything on the tool (I don't know how - it's always worked fine for me at whatever it was set at when I installed the program), but now all of a sudden when I attempt to drag the box to make it the size I need it, the box won't drag along with the cursor.....it lags behind and then stops at a certain size......
Again, this worked fine until a couple weeks ago, and I thought if I restarted the program and the computer maybe it was a glitch that would leave; however, now I'm thinking I accidentally set something that is now screwing up my ability to just crop what I need.
Hopefully this has made sense........I have a windows vista machine and CS3, and *very limited* knowledge of photoshop.
Thanks!

Well now that you know about them they come in handy for doing precise selections anytime

Active area not lined up with link

Hi,
At jeffreykorst.com, there are links to a photography section and a magic section. In Safari (2.04) the active area of the link is below the text. In Firefox (3.01) it lines up correctly.
Any ideas?
Thanks very much,
Jeffrey

Safari uses a JavaScript to create a canvas. That's the area you see in Safari and not in Firefox because Firefox does not support that JavaScript.
It's the outline around your name in the second image that's blocking the link. Did you move that area to the back.
Here's a sample page to replicate the problem:
http://www.wyodor.net/Overloop/JK.html
The caption says it all.
In Safari the Photography link does not work. In Firefox it does.
But when both textboxes are moved to the front they work. And while in iWeb, hovering the mouse over the link you'll see the color change.
Also note the difference between hyperlinking the TEXT and hyperlinking the TEXTBOX. MSIE does not respond to hyperlinked TEXTBOXES.
Isn't iWeb supposed to look the same as in a browswer?
It should. But in iWeb you also see the layout and all that stuff. In the end it's in the browser where everything is displayed. With all the anomalies you now encounter.
Never trust what you see.

Flash Animation not lined up with screen

Hi,
I am a complete newbie to dreamweaver and will try to
explain. I have a flash animation that i can not get to be even on
the screen during runtime. I am guessing with all my screwing
around that i messed up the layout format or something. I read
somewhere that in dreamweaver, i can go to window >workspace
layout and then default. I do not have this default though.
So I think what I am after is a way to reset the layout?
Please help
Thanks in advance.

It's IE-only behaviour as a result of changes Microsoft made
several
years ago to their browser, regarding how Active Content
(Flash, Quicktime
etc)
is handled, after losing a high profile court case.

Why is the sound on my laptop not lining up with the video?

for the past week or so every video I play, whether it's on Amazaon, Hulu, or Youtube, the audio is ahead of the video. There's about a quarter second delay between them which makes it very difficult to watch.

Hi,
Try the following.
First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Desktop.
Flash Player Uninstaller.
When the download has completed, close all browser windows and run the uninstaller. After this has completed, restart the notebook.
Next, ( unless you already have it ), download and install Firefox and then using Firefox, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash. Note: You may want to deselect the option to include McAfee Security Scan Plus before downloading.
Close all browser windows before running the Flash installer.
Launch Firefox and see if the videos play Ok in this browser - if they do, close Firefox, open Internet Explorer and click on the same Adobe Flash link above to get a prompt to install the ActiveX component. When done, restart Internet Explorer.

Spry accordion panel not lining up with top of viewport in FF3.5

I have created a new web page using spry accordion for the first time on my site. In IE8 all works perfectly - opening and closing and moving between tabs is smoothly done. My first tab opens a very long panel (way over the web browser's height), and scrolling down through the text brings us to the second tab. I disabled fixed panel heights - these expand fully when the relevent header is clicked. Clicking the second tab in IE8 closes the first panel smoothly, opens the second panel smoothly and leaves the browser sitting so the 2nd tab is in line with the top of the browser window. Perfect!
In FF3.5, following the same routine, with the first panel open, and scrolling down to the 2nd tab - click this and it closes/opens the panels, but is very jerky doing this and you are left with the browser window looking at the very bottom of the web page, instead of at the top of the panel.
I'd appreciate any advice on this before I give up and move to JQuery. Is this a bug?
**UPDATE** I tried Jquery and the results are worse! It doesnt even line up in IE8.
Please feel free to check out the code here:
http://www.pjamedia.com/?page=modeladvice
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks, Paul A

so take an anchor at the begining of the Accordian panle, link the <a> tag to the anchor point.
<script type="text/javascript">
function goToAnchor() {
location.href = "#unilist";
</script>
paste this script in <head> tag.
<a name="unilist" id="unilist"></a> // add an anchor tag before the accordion panel.
                  <div id="Accordion1" class="Accordion">
                    <div class="AccordionPanel">
                      <div class="AccordionPanelTab" ><a onclick="goToAnchor();"> University, Ohio*</a></div>
                      <div class="AccordionPanelContent">content</div></div>

Radio button not lining up

Somehow my radio button are not lining up with my text that
is following them. I have the following html:
<input type="radio" id="pollType2" name="pollType"
value="deterministic" /><span
class="radioTxt">Factual</span></input>
My CSS looks like this, but does not seem to do anything.
What am I missing?
.radioTxt {padding: 0 5px 10px 2px;}

Hi again.
Thank you for your responses. I was putting together a small application to show the problem, and was able to recreate it.
Then I noticed that I was reading the radio button outside of any structure, thereforfe it was pulling in an undefined value before the user clicked 'start'.
I checked my 'real' code and that appears to be the problem.
Once I placed the 'read' of the radio button inside a control structure, so that I defined when it was read, all is good.
Thanks,
Jeff

Problem in SQL with CURSOR( ) ,Why the CURSOR did not work?

hi All:
I have a problem in SQL with CURSOR.
The data is as the attachments.
Here is the SQL statement as follow:
SELECT A.WADCTO,A.WADOCO,B.IGCOST,CURSOR (SELECT X.IGLITM
FROM F3102 X
WHERE X.IGDOCO=A.WADOCO
AND X.IGCOST IN ('B1','D1','C3')) AS DETAIL
FROM F4801 A INNER JOIN F3102 B ON A.WADOCO=B.IGDOCO AND A.WADCTO=B.IGDCTO AND B.IGCOST>' '
WHERE A.WADOCO='10004'
The statement above returns records as follow:
WADC WADOCO IGCOST DETAIL
WO 10004 A1 CURSOR STATEMENT : 4
CURSOR STATEMENT : 4
IGLITM
1KV90CPG2
1KV90CPG2
1KV90CPG2
But, after I add one statement in the subquery, there is no record returned from CURSOR.
Here is the SQL statement:
SELECT A.WADCTO,A.WADOCO,B.IGCOST,CURSOR (SELECT X.IGLITM
FROM F3102 X
WHERE X.IGDOCO=A.WADOCO
AND X.IGCOST=B.IGCOST
AND X.IGCOST IN ('B1','D1','C3')) AS DETAIL
FROM F4801 A INNER JOIN F3102 B ON A.WADOCO=B.IGDOCO AND A.WADCTO=B.IGDCTO AND B.IGCOST>' '
WHERE A.WADOCO='10004'
The statement above returns records as follow:
WADC WADOCO IGCOST DETAIL
WO 10004 A1 CURSOR STATEMENT : 4
CURSOR STATEMENT : 4
no rows selected
Why the CURSOR did not work?

Why this structure and not a join?
The cursor() function returns a cursor handle that needs to be processed - in other words, the client needs to fetch data from it. The Oracle® Database SQL Reference+ (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/expressions005.htm#i1035107) describes it as being equivalent to a ref cursor handle.
Thus why are you creating ref cursor handles as a column in a SQL projection - where each row will have a "+nested+" ref cursor handle to process. What problem are you attempting to hack solve this way?

Cannot select a music into slideshow and book slideshow presentations. In the older Mac this was easy. With new Mac OS X 10.6.8 it should work as I can stop the slideshow with cursor but pop up window for choosing music is dead. I cannot drag music into it. Preselected music just goes on.

I am talking about iPhoto. In my old Mac even in Books choosing slideshow gives a pop up where you can select a music from I tunes library. In this new one I can stop the slideshow with cursor and it shows music option but it is, as I said dead. Does not response at all to commands.

PLS-00428 Why SELECT must be adorned with REF CURSOR to work?

hello
*"PLS-00428: an INTO clause is expected in this SELECT statement"* - This problem has been resolved. I just want to understand WHY SELECT statements need to be paired with REF CURSOR.
          To reproduce this,
               DECLARE
                    Id1 numeric(19,0);
                    Id2 numeric(19,0);
                    CreateTimestamp date;
               BEGIN
               -- ATTN: You'd either need to select into variable or open cursor!
               select * from SystemUser left join Person on Person.Id = SystemUser.PersonId WHERE Person.PrimaryEmail in ('[email protected]','[email protected]');
               END;
          Solution?
               * In install script:
                    CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE types
                    AS
                         TYPE cursorType IS REF CURSOR;
                    END;
               * Then in your query:
                    DECLARE
                         Id1 numeric(19,0);
                         Id2 numeric(19,0);
                         Result_cursor types.cursorType;
                    BEGIN
                    OPEN Result_cursor FOR select * from SystemUser left join Person on Person.Id = SystemUser.PersonId WHERE Person.PrimaryEmail in ('[email protected]','[email protected]');
                    END;

That in oracle block or procedures are expected to do something and a simple SELECT is not!! (Very counter intuitive). What needs to be done is therefore to put the select output into a ref-cursor to fool oracle so that it thinks the procedure/block is actually doing something. Is this explanation right? Sounds more like an assertion than actually explaining...
Any suggestion please? Thanks!

Opening a cursor (ref cursor or otherwise) is not the same as executing a select statement.
A select statement returns data, so if you are using it inside PL/SQL code it has to return that data into something i.e. a local variable or structure. You can't just select without a place for the data to go.
Opening a cursor issues the query against the database and provides a pointer (the ref cursor), but at that point, no data has been retrieved. The pointer can then be used or passed to some other procedure or code etc. so that it may then fetch the data into a variable or structure as required.
It's not counter-intuitive at all. It's very intuitive.
