Color fill won't stay within shape boundaries

When anyone looks at my site in Internet Explorer, the color boxes (shapes with color fill) spill over the shape boundaries above and below and everywhere. I thought this would be solved when I switched to web safe fonts. It isn't. How do I keep the colors within the shapes?
Thank you.

Another way to make image files of the shapes or group of shapes is to:
1 - create them on a blank page like AllAboutiWeb suggested.
2 - select them all and do a Copy.
3 - open Preview and select File->New From Clipboard menu option.
4 - in the new window with the objects do a Command+A and then a Command+C (select all and then copy).
5 - go back to iWeb and do a paste it the page you want the objects. This will create a image of the objects that IE can view. It's about the only way to get color gradients to be viewed outside of Safari.
Wyodor posted this method in another post. Works very well.

Solid color background won't stay as specified

I'm trying to put a gray (68c, 63m, 60y, 51k) background behind a smaller element in a clip. Every time I click okay, save and render the file, I go back and check the gray in the Solid color control tab, and it has changed to 77c, 73m, 71y and 38k. Very frustrating. Any one know what I'm doing wrong?
(I'm posting stills and video clips to a site that has a gray field I want to match. The CMYK settings I got from the stills when I set them up in Photoshop and they match the site background perfectly. That's why I'm using CMYK. It is odd that FCE lets you use CMYK, but it does, so it should work, right?)

Hi -
I believe that while you can enter a color value in CYMK, the sequence you are working on in FCE is always in RGB colorspace. Therefore the CYMK value is converted to the nearest RGB value for display as video.
Hope this helps.

Color theme won't stay put

Hi gang,
Seems like every week or so, I open InDesign CC, and it comes up in that horrid dark user color theme. I change it to the light theme. But a week later, it starts up dark again. I'm not sure, but it might be happening after a patch. Anyone else seeing this? This is happening on my Creative Cloud subscription, Win7 version; not my Mac OS 10.8.
Best to you,
Mike Witherell in Maryland

Lots of people seeing it. It's an annoyance but not much more since none
of the other prefs are resetting.
See if this helps:

I'd like to bring another pages document which includes pictures to another pages document. When I move this other doc it won't stay within the doc I am editing.

How do I insert a pages document into another pages document?

Don't confuse the Operating System (yosemite) with the version of Pages.
It sounds like you have Pages 5.5.3.
It only works in Pages '09, like 100+ other features only work in Pages '09 and previous.

Feature request : color fill vector mask thumbnails in layers panel

I find that the color fill vector mask previews within the layers panel are not as helpful as they were in CS5. Having the vector path along side the color swatch worked better.

You should know that others have requested this, starting with the public beta. I happen to agree with you on this, showing the color and shape separately was more useful. But it must have been difficult for new users to understand or something.
There's a known bug that causes the shape icon to be hidden sometimes behind the little overlay. Adobe is looking into fixing that, and with some luck in an update we'll see the shapes become more visible, but of course this doesn't help with the shape of things like thin lines that you can't see at that scale, and complex coloring (e.g., gradient fills) doesn't show at all.
It would be great if they'd offer an option to display an additional color icon - if not in the Layers panel then in the Properties panel!
Oh, and I suppose it should be pointed out that fill layers with PIxel masks (vs. shapes, which are fill layers with vector masks) still look the old way. I don't know whose idea this was, but it seems a little half-baked.
Unfortunately, Adobe does not have a habit of changing functionality in any significant way after release. I think we're stuck with what we have, save for maybe that bug fix I mentioned.

Visited links using Safari on my iPad 2 won't stay the "visited" color

Visited links using Safari on my iPad 2 won't stay the "visited" color after I close the tab, put the iPad in sleep mode (or whatever it's called), or when I power off the iPad.
There are certain sites I visit where it comes in very handy to be able to see which links I've already clicked on. The links will stay the "visited" color during the time I'm on the site, but later they all go back to the "unvisited" color.
Is there any way I can fix this on an iPad?

Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Shapes and Color fill

This was a problem with the last version of Pages and I'm not sure if it's a bug or not, but it's frustrating.
1. Create a Square Shape on the page and make sure it's selected.
2. Open the Colors panel by clicking the Colors icon in the toolbar.
3. Pick a color from the Colors panel.
4. Shape does not change color.

B. Kennedy wrote:
...that's pretty unintuitive. I don't see the need for that extra step considering any drawing program I've ever used just requires you to click the object and then the color.
iWork wants to know whether you are changing the color of the Fill, the color of the Shape's Outline or the color of the Text inside the Shape. How else would it know which property you wanted to change the color of?

My labeled files on my macbook pro won't stay colored

my labeled files on my macbook pro won't stay colored

Ok, in theory you cannot lock the hard drive, so, run Disk Utlities, First Aid, Repair Hard Drive again. It should come back with a message that all is OK. Then run Repair Permissions. That often returns a lot of messages that are not actually problems, just grumbling by the system.
Then try a normal restart by clicking the apple left side of the menu bar, Restart. If you restart normally all is fine.
If not, then restart on the recovery HD again and try an Install Mac OS X and see if that succeeds this time.

1) Padding is only placed on the top and/or bottom of the div. The elements within this div have padding on their sides. This saves you from any "box model math". Keep in mind, if you add any side padding or border to the div itself, it will be added to the width you define to create the *total* width.

It's caused by this CSS rule:

For consistency, you can either specify the amounts you want here, or on the list items (LI, DT, DD) they contain. Remember that what you do here will cascade to the .nav list unless you write a more specific selector. */
    padding: 0;

Try adding this to your CSS, adjust values to suit:
.content li {

padding-left: 25px;

Highlighting text won't stay on

When I highlight text it often won't stay on, and when it does and I try to move the selection, it just beeps at me and sits there. What's up?

Ok. In System Preferences > General, Apple applies the term “Highlight” instead of “Selection” color.
In Pages v5(.2), I select a passage of text and it reflects my first sentence color setting. You can leave this alone and visit any menu or side panel setting, and the selection in the body text will remain selected. It will remain selected, if you leave the Pages document and click in another application. When you return to this Pages document, click anywhere but the body text to regain document focus. The next click in the body text should be a click/hold/drag on the selection to move it, or a press of the space bar to remove the selected text. This is mouse-based behavior.
If you are using a Trackpad, whether built-in or external, you must be very careful not to brush against it while in your Pages document, or your selection focus will be lost.
I am using the above Pages on OS X 10.9.4 and do not experience a loss of selection, or an inability to drag/move or remove the selection. I have tried with both mouse and Trackpad following the preceding guidelines and cannot reproduce what you have stated.

IPod Nano won't stay mounted

Hi this is my first post and hope someone can help. My problem is that when I attach my nano to my computer it will mount on the desktop, open iTunes check and see that it is update, which it is and then it umounts from the desktop within a few seconds. It remains in the iTunes window so I can access the nano preferences but then when I hit apply it searches for the nano and since it is not on the desktop says it can not find it. The iPod is not in the finder window but shows up in the system profiler as being attached to the USB. I am up to date on iTunes and the nano updater says it is up to date running 2006-06-28. I have tried everything such as restarting, using different USB ports, etc... to no avail. When I run the updater it stays mounted on the desktop but I can not acces the preferences. I really need to change my nano preferences as it will not update my new playlists because prefs, are set to update only the checked ones and I can not changes this and apply it if the nano won't stay mounted. Can anyone help? Much thanks

This happened to me when using iTunes 6. Is that the version you are using? I was never able to find a complete answer to the "Preferences not saved" error or any knowledge base articles with an official explanation. I did however find a workaround in a previous discussion. Connect your iPod and in the short time that it is still visible on the desktop just as iTunes is opening, go to Preferences>iPod and tick "enable disk use". You have to be quick but it can be done. Once it is enabled you will be able to go back and update the preferences such as manual update etc. and and you'll not get the error.
If you are using iTunes 7 try the same technique only tick "enable disk use" in the Summary tab before your iPod unmounts.

Can't create a solid color fill layer !!

I wonder if someone can help this PS newbie before I go insane ?
If I create a color fill layer & want to set it to a solid yellow color I can NOT get it to change color
no matter what I do on the color picker it remains white
I start clicking the small circle icon ( half black / white ) & selecting solid color
I click on the yellow bit of the vertical color bar & use the cursor to select the precise shade of yellow
to the top right there is a small rectangle
the color I choose - yellow - appears on the top half , the bottom half is white
I click OK so my small box is top-half yellow, bottom half white - the layer stays stubbornly white
shouldn't it go the color I choose ??
Now whats driving me mad is that last week I was doing this for fun
I had a jpeg file of a book page that I could create a highlighter pen effect by putting a yellow layer on top & sliding
the opacity down to 20% or whatever
I have opened one of the psd files I created & the color fill layer is yellow
the left-side palette thumbnail is yellow
when I edit the color the small rectangle is entirely yellow - top & bottom
I don't know what I am doing differently or not doing that I need to do ...
any ideas gratefully received !

YESSSS !!!!
sanity restored.....you, sir, are a genius.
thankyou.

Color management setting wont stay set?

Running Acrobat Pro 9.4.1 in conjunction with CS5 Design Premium. Not only does the color management setting in Acrobat not change when set and synced from Bridge. The setting wont stick when set directly in Acrobat. Does anybody have a similar issue or a solution? I run Europe prepress 3 in bridge which has no effect on Acrobat but if I select Europe prepress 3 directly in Acrobat it will stay on that setting until I quit Acrobat then when re-launched it will be set to Europe Prepress 2! Any help or explanation much appreciated.

Guys I appreciate your help but nothing is working.
I tried deleting the preferences file and the same thing happened again anyway.
I then uninstalled the whole Creative Suite and deleted all files associated with it and all entries in the Windows Registry related to it.
I then reinstalled everything ( spending the hours it took) and it is doing the same thing again. I can not think of anything that has changed on the machine at all and I have never had this happen before in the years I have been using Premiere.
Everything used to work fine and Captures would go without a hitch even if they took hours as long as the Preferences were set to “None” on Device Control. But now it just won’t stay set, even after reinstalling everything. The Capture Window Device Control will stay set to “none” but not Preferences regardless of what I do.
I tried changing other Preference Settings and they stay changed but not device control. And it is the same regardless of whether the ADVC-300 is on or off. I even tried deactivating the Firewire Port in the Bios just to see what would happen and it made no difference.
Does anyone have any ideas?
My last option is to reformat my drive and reinstall everything from scratch but that will take me a day and a half.
I can not understand what is making it do this when it never did it before.
Here is what I am using:
Premiere Pro CS4 with a Canopus ADVC-300 Capture Box. It is installed via Firewire and goes to the Firewire Port on the Motherboard.
I am using XP Home SP3 on a Core I7 Computer with an Asus motherboard.
If no one has any ideas do me one favor. Go into your own Preferences file and set Device Control to “None”, close the panel and open it again to see if it is still set to none.
It may help me feel a little better about reinstalling all my software and spending the day and a half doing it if I know it is something with my machine and not the program itself.

☞ 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 and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You should almost instantly get three or more lines of output below what you entered, one of which is this:

If there's no output within ten seconds, consider that a failure. If you get something different from the above, please post it in a reply. You can then quit Terminal.

New monitor profile won't stay selected

I've been using Snow Leopard for 2 years (Mac Mini) and had two different monitors in that time. I just got an Asus VE228 monitor and it was really bright and washed out. So I made a setting that looks good but it won't stay selected after a reboot.
When opening the System Preferences and going to the Display section, it switches to the right profile the moment I click on the Color tab. I have to do this every time I reboot.
Repairing permissions did not fix it. I tried making a new user and it does the same thing with that user. I tried a system reinstall and it didn't help.
I tried a different mac mini with mountain lion and it works fine with this monitor.
Can anybody help me get my monitor setting to stick?
Thanks,
Scott

Ok I have a new plan to do this.
It would work if Spry didn't keep overwriting my colours.
I have spry:odd and spry:even set on this table. I have also now removed spry:select
When someone clicks on something I make a note of the rowID and store that globally. I also set the clicked row to have the correct color and have added an id to all the rows which includes their rowID so I can easily do a document.getElementByID to find the row that should be selected.
Now I have added an onPostLoad to the notification which finds the correct row by the id I have set and then sets the color. If I put in an alert directly after I can see that this has worked.
The problem is that spry then overwrites the background colour with the spry:odd and spry:even colours.
So... what I need to know now, is how I can do something to the row directly after spry has finished setting colours.
