Centre horizontally and vertically

Hi all,
I have designed a web page in adobe illustrator, now I know this is probably not the best way of designing web pages but if Dreamweaver was more like this for design it would be easier for me as I know Illustrator. Once designed I sliced it in to the various sections needed and exported it to Dreamweaver, all went well up to this point until I tried getting it centred, for some reason the page does not sit in the centre but more towards the left and does not move when the page is resized as I would like I would also like it centred rather than at the top of the window? The page can be found here: http://www.highriggs.co.uk/ to see what I mean, this is just the first draft while I learn how to get it right and then I will scrap this one and start it from a fresh design.
Many thanks for your help and advice.
Regards
Nick

  • Word .docs with Horizontally and Vertically oriented pages

    I have 30 plus Word .docs that have Horizontally and Vertically oriented pages in them. A new PDF is created each time the orientation changes. Is there a way to have Acrobat keep those in the same PDF?
    I am using Acrobat Pro for Mac 10.1.10

    As far as I know there are no patches available for the software and OS I am using (I ran the update check on each), but my version of Acrobat Pro is older.

  • I'm in a multi-page document, how can i rearrange the pages or insert blank pages in front of pages? Also, is there a way to show the ruler both horizontally and vertically?

    I'm in a multi-page Pages document, how can i rearrange the pages or insert blank pages in front of pages? Also, is there a way to show the ruler both horizontally and vertically?

    Not on my document. I have a 7 page document open. The "flashing vertical bar" is at the top of page 3. I have the thumbnail view showing. I click page break and two blank pages are added to the end of my document. I have to scrool thru the pages to see that the 2 pages were added as they do not appear in the layout view... I'm not sure if it is inserting a "section" as it adds two blank pages.. But I am clicking on "INSERT PAGE BREAK".. So guess there are still a lot of bugs to fix..
    Thanks again

  • Center text horizontally and vertically on composition?

    Hello,
    I'm working on a short projects (15 minutes length). Every 30 seconds a title fade in/out against a blank (grey) composition. How do I go about easily centering the text (single word) on the composition both horizontally and vertically? I know I can horizontally center via the paragraphs pallet, but how do I center on the vertical at the same time?
    Right now I'm modifying the Anchor Point of the text so it's in the center (visually) of the text, and then set the Position to the center of the composition, but every time I increase the type size, I have to go through this all over again...and with different titles coming up every 30 seconds or so, a simple text size change turns into a lot of work.
    I can only image there's a better way to do this and would appreciate any advice for an AE newb!
    Thanks,
    Kristin.

    It is possible to do this via scripting, but it won't be "live", i.e. you would have to run a script to grab the dimensions of the text layer each time you want to update its vertical alignment.
    It is also possible to roughly align text vertically using expressions given three limitations:
    1) You'll have to be willing to consider the height of the text layer to only extend from the cap height of the first line to the baseline of the last line, meaning descenders and ascenders wouldn't be counted as part of the height of the text layer.
    2) You'll have to manually locate the center of the first line of text.
    3) You'll have to be happy with a consistent point size and line spacing throughout.
    Given those limitations, vertical alignment can be done as follows:
    Add a Position animator to your text layer. Delete the default range selector you won't need it. Next add the Line Spacing property to the newly-created animator (using its "Add" menu). In the Character panel, set your text layer's line spacing to 0 (it will really be set to .01, but the difference shouldn't be noticeable once we're done). In the Line Spacing animator, set the desired line spacing (unfortunately, "Auto" isn't an option).
    Now set your Text layer's anchor point such that it falls in the center of the text's cap height (the height of a capital letter with no ascender or descenders).
    Next, add the following expression to the Position property of the text animator (NOT the Position property of the text layer's Transform group):
    >STA = text.sourceText.split("\r");
    >value - [0, (STA.length-1)*propertyGroup(countUp = 2).property.lineSpacing[1]]/2
    The second line should be all one line, but the forum insists on wrapping it. Be aware that if you later decide to change the point size of the font, you'll need to temporarily disable the text animator and center up the anchor point again.
    You can also use this method to force the text layer to shift up to accommodate new lines by deleting the "/2" at the end of the second line of the expression.

  • Center text in DIV horizontally and vertically.

    I made a simple nav bar at the bottom of a site I am building and had it centered horizontally and vertically.  When I pulled up the page today the text is all the way to the left and I had no problems with it the day before. I have made no changes to the code. I am using IE9, but I have been since I started this site. Everything seems fine in Firefox. If I turn IE9 to compatibility mode it centers horizontally but not vertically. Any ideas?

  • Pdf files print with horizontal and vertical lines

    All of a sudden, today, when I print pdf files, they print with horizontal and vertical lines.  I thaught it was the computer or printer. So I printed from another computer on the network, and printed to a different printer with the same result.  It is not just that one pdf file either, I have tried multiple files.  HELP.  Does anyone have any ideas?

    It is not clear how you are creating the files. It appears that they were created by Distiller from PS files that were created in some way. I also noted that you are using AA8.1.0. You may want to try to update (do all the updates in order) as a possible fix. It may be in the creation process also. Several packages will split large graphics into parts and create the image. I think this is a characteristic of OFFICE 2007 (docx) files - but I am not sure yet. Tell us how you created the files - step by step, including the scan.
    If you have the original documents, why not simply print to the Adobe PDF printer. The result would be smaller and a lot cleaner.

  • Tile horizontal and vertical

    Hi all,
    I m using internal frame. i m showing a menu which show cascde, tile horizontal and vertical. when i click on tile horizontal it should display all open internal frame in tile horizontal same as for cascade and tile vertical.
    how do i proceed
    pls solve my problem
    regards
    Tarique

    You have to find the open internal frames. JDesktopPane has a method to do this. Then determine which are showing. JInternalFrame methods can help you here.
    For cascading the rest is simple. Pick a starting point, say (0,0) and an ofset value, say 10, iterate over the internal frames. Set the location of the first at (0,0) and then set each succeed frame at a multiple of the offets. Here's the rough code to do that
       int hPos = 0;
       int vPos = 0;
       int step = 10;
      JInternalFrame[] frames = myJDesktopPane.getAllFrames();
      for ( int i = 0; i < frames.length ; i++){
          frames.setLocation( i * step, i * step);
    Horizontal and vertical tiling can be done in a simular manner. You'll probably want to ensure that all frames are the same size ( you can't assume that, users do stupid things). Then laying out tiling will be like above but holding horizontal or vertical step constant and increasing the other by the width or height of the frame.
    This is just a quick and dirty response, you may have to adjust some things to get the result you want. But, I think, this will get you going.

  • TableView horizontal and vertical scrolling is horribly slow

    How can I adjust the horizontal and vertical scrolling amount?
    I used the Ensemble example prorgam and streched the column so that the horizontal scroll bar is displayed. I then used the right scroll button which then scrolls extremly slow. I've looked at the javadoc on the tableview and I cannot determine how to set the scrolling amount. I can check if the table is scrolling but I would like to set the amount to be a column width at a time when using the left or right arrow.

    It probably needs to be actually rendered to the Scene graph before the lookups can be made, so the lookups won't work in the initialize method.
    There are a number of reasons I don't like this solution
    - I don't like the string binding
    - the fact that there are scrollbars that are descendant nodes of the table view is not documented, so (at least in theory) a future release of JavaFX could choose not to use the ScrollBar class (for example by creating its own scrolling implementation). This would break the code you have.
    - if you decided to create (or use) an alternative skin for the table view which had other scrollbars in place (again, unlikely but theoretically possible), you'd end up setting the unit and block increments of those scrollbars too. In other words, there's no guarantee these are the actual scrollbars you want.
    So, not ideal but at least if it works you have something...

  • Is there a way to hide the horizontal and vertical scroll bar?

    Hi,
    I have report with customized page height and width and I am displaying it in the windows forms.
    When I am resizing the form wherein the crviewer is dock in, the horizontal and vertical scroll bars appears.
    Is there a way for me to suppress the those scrollbars?
    Thanks in advance.

    Couple of ways I've been able to find info about. E.g.; there is not straight API off os the viewer (CRviewer.ScrollBar = False ).
    1)  Add Panel control onto the page and add report viewer control into a Panel. Set Scrollbar, width, height property of Panel control.
    2) See http://www.dotnetspider.com/forum/266932-Remove-Scrollbar-from-Crystal-report-Viewer.aspx for another idea.
    If either of the above works for you, please let us know as I have not tested this yet.

    I have iMovie 8.0.6 and an iPhone 4S.  I took hours of videos on vacation (Australia and New Zealand) and want to make a movie.  I've imported the first batch into iMovie and started the project.  I just realized that I shot both horizontally and vertically and when I preview (on full-screen) what I've combined, first it's wide-screen, then it's tall, narrow with wide black sides. 
    The film looks choppy, no flow, since it alternates horizontally and vertically.
    I can import the vertical clips two ways:  "Full-Original Size", or "Large 960x540."  But the vertical clips have very short, fat people.
    This didn't happen with my Flip HD; the movies are smooth and terrific.  My heart is breaking.....please, how can I make the videos match?

    Yes, I'd like to use all the video I shot, put it together with music, titles, etc. and make it consistant.  when it goes from full screen to this vertical, narrow clip, it's very awkward.....and it's so narrow, it's hard to see what I'm looking at; my eyes don't make the adjustment quickly.

  • CRXIR2 - A chart with horizontal and vertical lines?

    Good morning,
    Is it possible to create a chart with horizontal and vertical lines?
    I have a chart where the Y-Axis show the percentage and the X-Axis shows a timeline.
    The horizontal line shows the percentage for the points in time.
    Now I would like to mark some special points in time on the X-Axis with a straight vertical line.
    Is there a way to do that?
    Thank you very much in advance
    Christoph

    Hello Usama,
    unfortunatelly I couldn't find that that feature in the basic chart features.
    Also the webpage www.3DGraphics.com doesn't exist and I had no luck to google for 3DGraphics.
    It's a little strange, that it seems to be possible to draw one additional horizontal line with the basic features, but no additional vertical line.
    for example.
    If the main chart would be y=3x+1
    It seems to be possible to draw e.g. y=5
    But I see no chance to draw x=5
    In addition, to make it a little more complicated, I would need to have that dynamically, based on the values of a sql-statement.
    thx

  • Centering a single character horizontally AND vertically on a page

    This should be simple, yet I see no way of achieving the desired result. Please see this screenshot: http://bit.ly/gQY5mB
    I selected the number "2", as you can see. See all that vertical "empty space" above the "2"? I get that with all characters.. what's up with that? Why does the blue selection box not simply stop where the character stops, exactly the way it does on the bottom of the character?
    Word 2011 does this, too. All I want is to have this pretty big character centered both horizontally (easy, of course) and vertically (impossible?).

    Hello fruhulda.
    The problem is not linked to the size of the box.
    The function 'center vertically' doesn't center the character, it center a point defined by rules which I perfectly ignore.
    Look at this screenshot (in fact five ones).
    One more time, I used Arno Pro to be consistent with my first messages.
    I applied the same setting in the four examples.
    You may see that what I wrote match what we get.
    Only the lowercases are quite (not perfectly) centered
    If we want to center a given char, we must study carefully the font which will be used.
    We may print in a PDF a page containing the wanted character.
    Then use a tool (Preview if you want) to crop the PDF so that the space above equals the space below.
    Then insert this PDF in Pages.
    This time, we will be able to center the character using the available tools.
    But I feel that it's most efficient to
    insert a vertical line and center it horizontally
    insert an horizontal line and center it vertically
    At last, insert the wanted character in a text box and move the box so that the character is centered using the two lines as guides.
    When it's done, remove the lines or change the ink from black to white.
