Color signatures not saved in Preview

Hi all
When I paste a signature into Preview (using the inbuilt Preview signature annotation) with a colored ink, it is fine on the screen, and also if printed to paper or pdf; but if the file is simply saved, upon reopening, the signature has changed to black, although other color in the document remains.
Anyone else found this and why it does it?
Thanks, Paul

What happens when you try to create a signature?

Cell background colors are not showing in preview - help? - DW4

Hi,
I created a horizontal table for my menu bar, and gave each cell a different color by creating a separate class for each with background image - image is a block of color created in Photoshop. In design mode they look they way I want, but in preview (Safari) the colors don't show up at all - the whole area is gray, and all I see is the text for each cell. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Alternatively, is there a better way I can set this up to have different colors for each button?
Thank you!

Here is the HTML code, and the CSS code for the menu bar follows:
     ul.MenuBarHorizontal
></style><style type="text/css"><!body {     background-color: #FFF;     font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;}-->
    h1.
     ul.MenuBarVertical

Otherwise it's like dialing a random phone number, and asking whoever answers, where you left your keys.

User color choice not saved in export preset?

I'm currently writing my first plugin and still in a learning curve.
My export plugin has a color_well control to choose a color. I have defined a default value of LrColor(1,1,1) which works well.
However, the chosen color is not saved so every time the export dialog is used, it comes up with the default color value and the previously chosen color is lost.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Mario
Code snippet:
myPlugin.exportPresetFields = {
    { key = 'borderColor', default = LrColor(1,1,1) },
    ...more keys
function myPlugin.sectionForFilterInDialog( viewFactory, propertyTable )
    return {
        viewFactory:row {
            viewFactory:color_well {
                value = LrView.bind('borderColor'),
end

Many thanks for the reply and sorry for the delay. It took me DAYS to figure out how to save the r,g & b components.
Finally, I succeeded with this method:
myPlugin.exportPresetFields = {
    { key = 'color_r', default = 1 },
    { key = 'color_g', default = 1 },
    { key = 'color_b', default = 1 },
function myPlugin.sectionForFilterInDialog( viewFactory, propertyTable )
    return {
        viewFactory:row {
            viewFactory:color_well {
                value = LrView.bind({
                     key = 'borderColor',
                     transform = function ( value, fromTable )
                          if fromTable then
                              return LrColor(propertyTable.color_r, propertyTable.color_g, propertyTable.color_b)
                          else
                              propertyTable.color_r = value:red()
                              propertyTable.color_g = value:green()
                              propertyTable.color_b = value:blue()
                              return LrBinding.kUnsupportedDirection
                          end
                     end
end

Custom color palette not saving. Why?

Logic is not saving changes that I make to the color palette. I can make the change, but after I quit and restart Logic, the changes are gone. Any idea why?

I've answered this question, but I cannot figure out what I've previously done wrong. I managed to save the colours and get them to reload when I went back in to Logic. Not exactly sure how I did it, but it doesn't save automatically.

Signatures not saved

I recently had a problem when I wanted to send a mail with too many adresses, so the system did show an error message with an overflow window off the screen making impossible to close it because the button where out of the screen. So I looked for a solution here in the forums and found this:
Try the steps suggested on this page. If unsuccessful, see below.
Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
This does not worked. Later I fix it with a simple solution. But because of the prior procedure (in blue) I did something wrong, and now, the mail signatures are not saved when I text it and configure in the mail preferences. I reinstalled Mavericks and nothing, I copied the signatures folder of my MacBook Pro and now I have these signatures, but when I want to modify it, they are not saved again, I only have the copied ones. What file I am missing and where I can obtain it to fix this? Thanks in advance

I just logged in for the exact same issue!
I am guessing that there is a preference or other small part/user library that is corrupted. I do not know which one, so hopefully someone here will have the answer!

In/Out not saving in preview clips

I can't get the IN/OUT trim points to save on preview clips, am I doing something wrong:
1) In "Organise" mode
2) Double click the clip - preview window is displayed.
3) Drag in/out markers to right place
4) Click the "X" top right to close it
5) Re-open the clip, in/out not saved
6) Drag to timeline, in/out not saved
What am I missing here?
These are quicktimes from Canon 5D MK II if that makes any difference.
- Simon

You're trying to trim in Organize mode.
Instead, click on Project to open the media panel. Double-click your clip in the Project media panel and set your in and out points in the Clip Monitor. They should stick.

Mail Signatures Not Saved

I have Mail 3.4 and in the preferences I have entered three signatures for my email account and checked the "random" setting. I have tried entering the signatures in the email account I am using, entered them in all and dragged to the email account and closed preferences. If I leave the Mail program open, I can choose any one of the three signatures from the drop down to sign an email but when I close the Mail program the three signatures are gone from my mail account and only "none" is available in a new message signature drop down. I must go back and drag them to my mail account again for the new session. The signatures are listed in the all signature section.
The problem is the signatures are not saving in my email account when I close the program. All othe options save but not the signatures.
Any help?

PreE V8: In/Out Clip Set Points Not Saved in Preview Screen

After I set set in/out points in the Preview area on a clip then click on the X to close it, when I reopen the clip or when I drag the clip to the timeline/sceneline the set points are gone. I have to first drag the clip to the timeline then trim it. But then the trim points are not kept with the clip for reuse if I drag the clip a second time to the timeline.
How can I get the set in/out points to be saved with the clip when I set them in the Preview panel?

I am using a Canon HF20 and imported the video files into an a Photoshop album using the Elements 8 Organizer like I always do.
I can clip in the timline with no problem. Just not in the Preview window and have it save the in/out points.

Color balancing not saved

I cropped a photo and did some color balancing, I did not add any layers, then saved the photo. However if I view in a photo viewer or just in windows explorer with large icons or print the photo none of the editing, except the cropping, are applied, ie no color change.
If i just open it in PS the changes are still there.
When I save the photo I use 'save as' and:
1. Change the name.
2. Change the name and put it in a different directory, All with the same results.
Please make me feel dumb and tell me I forgot a setting or preference.

I believe your right. I started with an original of the same photo and edited as before, using the other monitor, and it printed fine. guess I should invest in a calibration tool. Do you have any recomendations ?

Adjust Color option not available in Preview?

We scanned in some documents recently and need to adjust their contrast. Unfortunately, the option for Tools>Adjust Color is grayed out/unavailable. Any idea why this would be the case? The documents were scanned in on a Canon MX850.
Thanks.

Mine are all jpgs, i.e., photos scanned with an HP 4-in-1 scanner or photos taken with a Kodak digital camera, downloaded into EasyShare and saved as jpgs.
I'd always used Preview, prior to the Leopard upgrade, rather than HP PhotoSmart or the Kodak program for much of my editing because the "exposure" and the "sharpen image" features were much better and could often salvage an iffy photo, especially the old circa WW II sepia ones.

HD Color bars not showing in preview

Hello!
I see this issue happen randomly where HD color bars that are added to an HD timeline show up as black in the preview window. You hear the tone, but don't see the bars. Then, when you export the video, the bars and tone are there! Any ideas? And yes, we did try adding bars again...and again. Just a bizarre thing.
Thanks!

Manage Signatures not working in Preview

Recently I found that the create new signature and manage signature are not working for me. I did see a previous post that said to try deleting Preview preferences but that did not fix it for me. I also tried a new user but that did not work either.

What happens when you try to create a signature?

Color palette not saving

I use a custom color palette in Flash CS5.5, it was originally created in flash 8. I have it saved as default in the swatches tab. Every time I create a new document it loads this original color palette. But after I save the file, close it and re open it, it always loads the web 216 palette.

Hi,
Can you please zip your color palette and email it to my attention at [email protected]? Please change your .zip extension to .zzz before sending. I'll take a look at your issue.
Thanks,

Strange color setting not saving correct color

I am completely baffled why this is happening. I make a simple photoshop document with the color #OF457C and do a 'save for web' and save it as a jpeg at 100%. I then open it back up from my desktop and the color has darkened and changed the hex value to #10447D. Its darker and not the correct color for my background.
Try it for yourself. Is it a color profile thing? I am using CS4 but have noticed this happening on CS3 on another computer. Does the 'save for web' pick an alternative color? I've never seen a color shift like this before.

I believe save for web uses sRGB, so if you are working in sometihng else, the conversion could cause a color shift.

After Effects CC not saving ram preview when switching to different tab.

Okay so just recently upgraded to CC and have been experiencing some ram preview problems.
What happens is I will do a ram preview, watch it, then switch to a different window (Chrome, word, etc)
and when I go back to AE and do a ram preview it does it all over again even though i haven't changed anything in the comp.
I dont believe this was a problem in CS5.
Any help on what settings i should check or if its a coding problem would be appreciated.
Some specs:
16gb ddr3 ram
AMD FX-6300
Radeon R7 250
Everything Program/Cache is on SSD and the project file/video files are on Ext HDD

Okay it's kind of fixed. (it isnt deleting it like it used too)
i cleared my cache which was about 30gb, but I still had about 20gb of free space when i cleared it
but Now I am getting some crashes and other stuff (colored bars, i already read thats getting fixed though)
Do you think lowering the CPUs used to 3 will help?
Ill update if it does it again when the cache is getting close to full
