Can the text wrap tool options be reinstated?

I may have inadvertenly hit some keyboard code to remove the options, though I certainly don't remember doing so. There are no options displayed at all, only a box that can be checked or unchecked to use the text wrap on the master pages only. I have tried it both ways, and checked the master pages for possible boxes, but there is nothing. Has anyone else ever encountered this? I appreciate your help! Thanks so much -

What version of ID are you using? What OS?
Your description is a littel vague but it sounds like you've opened the Text Wrap panel flyout menu and all you see is the option to limit wrap on a master page object to other text on the master page. Is the panel itself blank?
If that's the case, see Replace Your Preferences

  • Form - Can not use the Text Edit Tool in Adobe 9

    Hi,
    I was wondering if someone could please assist me, I have created a form but the text editing tool is coming grayed out, how am I able to get this function back?
    I simply need to remove one word and am unable to do so.  It tells me that some functionality is restricted for extended features and to save a copy.  but when i save a copy I am still unable to use the touch up tool.
    My Thanks in advance for your assistance.

    My guess is that you did use LiveCycle Designer and are not aware of that. Designer is accessed from Acrobat in the forms menu and may have come up even if you were not aware of it. If that is indeed the case, you can only edit the text in Designer.
    If it is an AcroForm, then it may be that you have activated Reader Rights or such. To remove Reader Rights, there is a specific procedure to use and unfortunately I do not remember it. If you have Reader Rights activated, indicate that and someone should be by that remembers how to remove the feature so you can edit the document. The removal is not as simple as one would think, but is rather straight forward. It involves saving or such -- I just don't remember and it is not something I am finding in the help menu.

  • What happened to the "Text Edits Tool" in Acrobat X?

    I know the answer is "it went away" but, seriously, please bring it back. In Acrobat 9, when you activated the "Text Edits Tool," it would automatically switch between insert, delete, and replace text in a context-sensitive way. You just had an active tool cursor - if you highlighted text and started typing, it would "replace" the text. If you clicked in one spot and started typing, it would "insert" text. If you highlighted text and clicked the Delete key, it would "delete" text. All this with one tool, that stayed active the entire time you were using it.
    Now, in Acrobat X, you have 3 different tools. You have to click to select the tool - mark the change. Click to select the next tool and mark that change. And on and on. And while you can right-click on any single tool and select "Keep tool selected" - there's no way to make that the default behavior. And that doesn't help when switching back and forth between activities.
    I know that the Selection Tool can now almost serve as the old "Text Edits Tool" - this works quickly with delete, but requires the tilde shortcut for insert or replace. Basically one extra step for each edit than there was with the Text Edits Tool.
    One might think that that little extra click isn't a big deal - but when you are marking up a PDF all day, every day, it adds up.

    I assume you're talking about commenting and markup rather than editing the text of the document itself.
    The keyboard shortcuts are  designed to do exactly what you want. With the multi-select tool active (I beam + black arrow on the toolbar):
    Select some text and press the Insert key - a new Replace text annotation is created and the note panel opened for typing. Press Esc to close the note
    Click to place the cursor within some text and press the Insert key - a new Insert text annotation is created and the note panel opened.
    Select some text and press the Delete key - a strikeout annotation is created (no note this time but you can add one by double-clicking)
    The idea of selecting something and 'just typing' to activate a markup event could not be retained as it interfered with the single-key accelerator mode.

  • Why do I get a full screen window of the "Text Edits" tool...?

    I got Acrobat 8 and when I mark some text with the Text Edits tool and afterwards types som replacements, I just get one big pop-up box filling the whole screen instead of the normal sized in the left margin as usual. And I am not able to see what I'am typing since this kinda lies outside the screen picture. Is this a matter of settings - or a bug, or anyone else tried the same?
    Memebers of my work group use the same version with the same updates without problems.

    If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out these instructions. Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is on a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. If you're able to boot, launch the Console application in any of the following ways: ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid. Select the most recent panic log under the heading System Diagnostic Reports on the left. If you don't see that heading, select   View ▹ Show Log List   from the menu bar. Post the entire contents of the panic report — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post shutdownStall, spin, or hang reports.

  • Mail and the text replacement tool

    Howdy all!
    I am trying to set mail up to remember the text replacement tool from within the app at edit - substitutions but it only seems to remember the setting per email. Anyone figure out how to keep it on for good? I have text replacement turned on system wide at system preferences - language and text - text tab. Any ideas would be awesome!
    Thanks in advance,
    Murch

    Thanks,
    That what I was saying. I have turned on text replacement system wide but in mail it seems you can only turn it on per email message. Can anyone else confirm this?
    I have turned on global text replacement too and I don't have to do anything special in Mail now. it works in every new message automatically. what exactly do you need to do to make it work in individual messages?

  • Text Wrap Contour Options Not Available in CS6

    So I just started using CS6, and I know from CS5 that there used to be the "Dectect Edges" option when trying to do a text wrap around an object shape. Every time I try to text wrap like this in CS6, the "contour options" menu is "greyed out," and I can't adjust my text wrap. Does anyone know how to fix this? I have a screen shot below. It is happening in all of my CS6 documents, around PSDs and objects created in InDesign.

    In your screen shot you have the text frame selected. That would disable the contour options. You want to select the object that you want the text to wrap around, not the frame that holds the text you want to wrap.

  • How to get the text wrap margin setting of graphic frames?

    Hello everyone,
    I am trying to get the margin setting of frames, and i tried IStandOff which does not work for graphic frames sometimes.
    And then, i found the Adobe recommends to use ITextWrapFacade to manipulate text wraps in programming guide.
    But now, again, ITextWrapFacade::GetMargins(const UIDRef &  textWrapItem,     PMReal &  topMargin,     PMReal &  leftMargin,     PMReal &  bottomMargin,     PMReal &  rightMargin,     bool8 &  singleDistance) cannot get the correct margin setting of a graphic frame.
    This situtation occurs when i select "wrap around object shape" for the frame.
    Any suggestion? Or is there any other way can get that setting?
    Thanks,
    Aidy

    I found another thread mentioned this issue as well, without known solution.

  • Can the text in the header row be slanted?

    In Excel the text in the header row can be slanted at an angle in order to show a long header text in a narrow column. Can this be done in Numbers?

    John,
    Numbers doesn't support this directly. A quick way to fake it is to make a chart with slanted category axis labels. This won't give you slanted cell borders, but then you didn't ask for that.
    These particular instructions have an advantage over just pasting text boxes over the cells in that the same text is in the cell as in the label pasted over the cell. This may be helpful if you want to reference a header cell's content in an expression.

  • How do I add a SITE, USERNAME, and PASSWORD to the list in - Tools/Options/Security/Saved Passwords ?

    How do I force Firefox to remember and use my username and password for a site ?

    #Tools -> Options -> Security - tick "remember passwords"
    #Log in to a website
    You should be asked to save the user name and password upon login.

  • I've lost the File, Edit, Tools, Options etc from the top of my browser window. How do I fix this?

  • Using the text search tool

    I usually supply my clients a link to a selection of photos to chose from. When they are happy, the email me a list of photos. _MG_1234, 1345,1456 etc etc.
    So I make a coffee and click the Text Tool and if I accidently forget to select Filename Contains from Contains all when I start entering the list of numbers....
    umbrella of pain just sits and spins.
    It usually spins for 15 to 20 seconds per 4 digit filename I enter.
    I now just make a long list in textmate 1234, 1345, 1456 and paste them in hit enter and go for a coffee.
    This seach is not just depressingly slow its an utterly appalling search.
    Yes I get the right images, but at searching is so so slow.
    I've only got 74,000 file on a server, obviously the database on my mac's hard drive.
    The catalogue is optimised every 2 weeks or so. I'm not running photoshop, Indesign nor any processor intensive software, infact usually 25% of 2 cores is max what I use lightroom so the poor old thing has a chance.
    Model Name: iMac
    Model Identifier: iMac7,1
    Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
    Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
    Number Of Processors: 1
    Total Number Of Cores: 2
    L2 Cache: 4 MB
    Memory: 4 GB
    I've tried lightroom as 64 bit as well as 64 bit and its does not seem to make a bit of difference
    Any thoughts on how to speed this up apart from buying a G5 with a rocket.
    I wondered whether this was a feature request asking for speed, but this would join a queue for a damn better dam.
    This is really not acceptable. I love lightroom and it saves me 100's or hours a week, unless I search for a list of photos, then it just crawls like a mouse swimming through cold treacle.
    This is also not just a rant, though it has every right to be. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  • Cant get the font to enlarge inside the email with tools, options, etc.

    I went to a larger monitor and the font inside my email is very small. I went to tool, option, appearance and set it for 24 but it is about a 10 or 12. Rebooted but still did not change.

    Don't change the default font in Options, that will mess up the display of some websites, and it will affect all websites not just that one. Use Page Zoom to increase the font on specific websites / domains. <br />
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Page+Zoom
    The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox. If you need need a larger font on all web pages, try one of these extensions and set a Default Zoom level in the extension's preferences.
    Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />

  • Can the Gradient Mesh Tool "web" be converted to an object to create 3D looking graphics?

    I am attempting to make a similar graphic with this 3D  appearance , using AI CS5.1
    The nature of how the gradient mesh tool appears would achieve the desired effect.
    I am trying to find a way, to capture and/ or add a stroke to the gradient mesh framework (seen in red) and/or save the mesh as an object.
    Suggestions, thoughts, work-arounds most appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Assuming you're not going to do some very precise scientific studies, you may want to create rectangular grids and experiment with Envelopes (located in the Object menu).

  • Bearshare was downloaded to our home computer. Now it has taken over my Firefox homepage and I can't get rid of it. I have tried changing the homepage via Tools, Options. Didnt work. Deleted the Bearshare app and cookies and web history. Still didnt work.

    Tried resetting default setting via Firefox Safemode. Didnt work. Any suggestions.?
    My situation is 2 home computers (Windows XP) sharing 1 modem, but have their own apps. Mozilla on the other computer is fine. Just this one which Bearshare was downloaded to.
    It took over the Homepage in IE too, but I was able to change it using Internet Options.
    The message which comes up when I try to change the Homepage is "An attempt to change the homepage has been blocked"
    Tks

    You only get an alert stating "An attempt to change the homepage has been blocked" if you have security software or an extension that is protecting against such a change. Firefox doesn't do that by itself. If starting in [[Safe mode]] didn't help then that only leaves security software, so you need to look to see how you can allow a home page change.
