Bug in Pages when setting width!

In Pages (v3.0.2) I draw a simple shape (rectangle). I then click Inspector and choose 'Metrics'-tab where I manually want to set the width size. This works great EXCEPT for widths less than 1 cm! 1,23 and 3,85 for example works just fine - but it just don't accept any numbers below 1 for either width or height.
I can of course resize the shape with the mouse, but it's obviously impossible to get the exact number I need.
Please help me, this is rediculous!
Best regards,
/Stefan

I understand, and I'm very thankful for it!
Is it useful to add that this odd behavior is already reported ?
Actually yes! When choosing OS and applications I'm not so much comparing feature lists, since these lists are always moving targets. Instead, I choose between cultures. My time investment for learning an OS/application is rather in a culture rather than a feature list snap shot in time. When getting so fast help as I just did from you, and also hear that this little misbehavior is also reported, I feel more secure in continuing invest more time in the Mac community. Which so far I think is great compared to others! Take care, and thanks again!

  • Firefox opens last page when set to load another

    In the settings i have "Show my home page" set to google.com when it starts.
    But if i close a window and restart firefox it just opens the previous page i was viewing.

    Is there a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder?
    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    Note that Windows hides some file extensions by default.<br />
    Among them are .html and .ini and .js and .txt, so you may see a name without file extension, i.e. user and not user.js.<br />
    You can see the real file type if you open the Properties via the right-click context menu

    Fix: When calculating the bounds position we should take into account the implicit scaling factor actualSize/naturalSize. Also did some refactoring, getting rid of the protected method calculateTopLeft.

    Thank you so much for replying.
    Yes I have removed and reinstalled WMP.
    I had good results with the PD6 application installed on the default path onto the C: drive with the one exception that if the application was launched by accident and the user data path was not available, the PD6 application would blow away my custom user path registry settings. Now that I know what they are I have made a .reg file to repair my registry to my desired user data paths.
    Installing the application on the removable drive appeared to help prevent me from launching the application by accident and overwriting my registry with default user paths.
    So which is the less of the two evils?
    If the application directory is not available, windows media player still tries to launch the .msi for installing PD6.
    If I install the application to the C: drive but the user data to the removable drive, launching the PD6 application without the user data drive will still corrupt my registry settings for a user data path.
    Both these issues seem like a logical (if not easy) fix that should be done in the PD6 application and installation package. I mean really, cannot anyone tell me why windows media player is checking the PD6 application directory? Why in PD4 did we have an option control for setting the user data path from the PD4 application? Why is this option not in the PD6 application, just the installer?
    I am given a choice during installation to move the user data to another non default location. Why else would this be provided if not to accommodate my kind of request to store the user data into an alternate location other than “My Document”. Certainly Palm is not trying to force the users on how to protect and store their personal data?

    Same problem here (no graphics in header or footer) and the problem has been reported months ago. It is another bug/feature lost when Apple moves from 09 to the iCloud-compatible versions.  Complain to Apple, you may have better chance than me and they may finally listen to their users....

  • How do I set the default page when I select "+" for a new tab? Right now it defaults to Yahoo search and I want to set it to my Speed Dial page. I did have the default page set to Speed Dial but I can't find anywhere how I did it in the past.

    You can set the homepage for opening tabs, but I can't find the setting for designating what page opens when I hit the + button on tabs.
    This is the page that loads:
    http://search.yahoo.com/?fr=freeze&type=W3i_NA,132,3_6,Tab%20Search,20100937,6693,0,16,0
    How did Yahoo embed this in the Tab settings?

    Firefox '''does not''' come with a setting for a page that opens in a new Tab, the default installation always opens a blank page when you open a new Tab. Many extensions include a feature to open their choice of a webpage when you open a new tab, as does the Speed Dial extension which uses a "local page" internal to Firefox.
    You need to figure out which extension has taken over that preference that Speed Dial needs to use. You didn't bother providing a Troubleshooting Information... listing as requested when you asked this question, but I can guess your problem is related wither a Yahoo extension or a Conduit / OurToolbar extension - as there is a plugin listed = Package Installer & Install Conduit.

  • Can I set a default home page when people use my router?

    Can I set a default home page when people use my router?

    Hello EireReality. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!

    No, at least not that I'm aware of. Setting a "default home page" is typical feature of a web browser, not an Internet router.

    The idea to jumpstart by change was not the smartest one, but gives you an opportunity to use that "temporary" account as permanent. You do not have a choice cause obviously despite you thinking that old account is no more -it does exist on Apple servers. And if you are unwilling to share your [email protected] with friend, just create one extra [email protected] for your friend. One suggestion - do not use gmail.

  • Items on page not set when called via hyperlink from charts

    hello anyone who can help me on this thorny issue,
    i have a barchart on one page (page 39), where if you click on the bar chart, page 40 opens and variables are passed on to items on page 40. the variables depend on which bar was clicked. looks somethiing like this:
    select 'F?P=102:40:'||:APP_SESSION||'::NO::P40_DATE,P40_JAHR:'||to_char(datum, 'yyyy.mm.dd')||','||to_char(datum, 'yyyy') link,
    to_char(datum, 'dd.mm.yyyy') Datum,
    Avg_mips
    from ... some sql query....
    this generally works - BUT, once in awhile, the correct page opens, but the items are NULL!
    only when i press F5 to refresh the page, do the variables correctly pass to the items and the proper query is performed...
    after some testing, it seems to happen when i click quite fast. quickly get back to the page 39, click a new bar and then i'm back at page 40 again.
    if i do this slowly, maybe wait a couple of seconds, it generally works.
    for ex., the URL would look something like this:
    http://daidalos:7777/pls/apex/F?P=102:40:2118535974571692::NO::P40_DATE,P40_JAHR:2008.12.16,2008
    - i know the variables are correct when i look at the URL
    - yet the new graph on page 40 shows null values, and a click on the "session" button confirms that the items are null!
    - once i press F5, the URL is the exact same, onle the items are now "refreshed" and the proper processing can take place.
    so, can anyone tell me what is going on here and how i can avoid this?
    the items are set as "hidden" (not protected). there are no computations or default settings to the items, and they are not reset to null at any time.
    regards,
    mike

    Mike:
    I suspect that the chart on page 40 is being rendered by an APEX database connection that is not the same one that renders the rest of the stuff on page 40. So, it is possible that the database connection rendering the chart does not see the new values for the page items set in the URL as these may not have been committed to the database yet.
    You could try this.
    Change the chart query to be
    select 'javascript:setStuff("' || to_char(datum, 'yyyy.mm.dd') ||  '","' ||to_char(datum, 'yyyy') || '")' link,
    to_char(datum, 'dd.mm.yyyy') Datum,
    Avg_mips
    from ... some sql query...Add the JS below into the HRML page header<script>
    function setStuff(p_date,p_jahr) {
      $x('P40_DATE').value=p_date
    $x('P40_JAHR').value=p_jahr
    doSubmit('XXXX');
    </script>Define an 'After Submit...' branch to page 40. Make the branch conditional on Request = 'XXXX'

  • Firefox is set to open a new page when a link is selected, however it opens underneath/behind

    Firefox is set to open a new page when a link is selected, however it opens underneath/behind the page containing the link. In other words I can't see the new page because it is beneath the one I'm looking at.
    75% of the time this happens, 25% of the time it works as it should.

    Do you mean that it is opening links in a new window? If you would rather have a new tab instead, you can set that in Options > Tabs. Some links are set up so that they will open in a new tab or window. I know of no way to make those open in the same tab, short of changing the code on the page.
