Textarea ... background-color:transparent causing problem in IE7

hello;
when I use <textarea style="background-color:transparent " > IE7 does not accept input ... other browsers work fine;
is there a way to get a transparent background for a textarea such that the textarea functions correctly in IE7 ( I haven't tested it in IE8 )?
thanks,
Shannon

What happens if you remove the background tag altogether?
I do this with my overflow css for text boxes and it leaves them transparent (as in: showing the page background) in Firefox, Safari Opera and IE 5, 6, 7 and 8.

Color saturation problem in Acrobat Reader 7.0.9 under Linux

Hi,
I'm working with a guy who is producing PDFs of my work with Indesign.
Using acrobat reader under Linux (version 7.0.1 and also 7.0.9), the colours in these PDFs always appear very saturated. This is a big problem for me because I cannot see with the reference viewer the results of PDFs to be sent to print.
I tried the same pdf file under OS X & Windows, it appears OK with Acrobat reader. Other free pdf readers under Linux also show the right colours (but not always the transparency ;-).
Does anybody has an idea to help me?
@Adobe people: in case you want to test, I drop a copy of my PDF file at: http://cardot.net/files/pdfcolours.pdf (2.24 MB)
Thanks in advance

We are able to reproduce color saturation problem at our end. We have noted down and will work on this.
Thanks.

I was having the same problem with a Tree Component. Just
yesterday I found some code to let me do this. Where
tabs.menuContent is the path to my Tree, or your List
var mc = tabs.menuContent;
_global.styles.ScrollSelectList.backgroundColor = undefined;
mx.controls.listclasses.SelectableRow.prototype.drawRowFill

Making a color transparent

Hi all
i am designing a software that visualises property prices of houses. so i have images of houses all over the map. what i want to do is when i click a certain button, it shades the most expensive houses with dark red and least expenses houses with lighter red.
the problem i am facing is that, once i try to shade over the area of where a house image is, the house image disappears. the color is put in the fore ground and the house image disappears, so i was wondering if there is any way to make a color transparent so that the shade of red can be seen as well as the image of the house
thanks in advance
regards

Sure, just set an alpha value smaller than 1.0 (float) resp. 255 (int):

Transparency problem on Xerox Phaser 6280 printer

Using InDesign CS6 on Windows 7. On a page with a PNG image over a filled rectangle, the transparent part of the image is printed with a color shift. It’s slightly different from the rest of the filled rectangle. In this case the fill is light blue and the shift is a slightly darker blue.
Fixes tried:
- Color management off on printer. Same problem. I’ve left it off for all testing as recommended by ID.
- Printing via pdf instead of directly from ID. Same problem. On the monitor there’s no color shift. That occurs only on the printed sheet. Used PrimoPDF.
- Custom transparency flattener preset with no rasterization. This solves the color shift problem, but now text is slightly fuzzy, since it’s pixels instead of vectors. Very interestingly, the fill color is now all the same as the shifted color in the PNG transparency area. It appears that raster and non-raster areas sent to the printer with the same color in ID are getting printed with different colors. This could be a big clue. For all other testing, in Print, Advanced, Transparency Flattener, the Custom Medium option was used.
- Fill the PNG image background in Photoshop CS5 with the same color as the filled rectangle. Still get the color shift – even though there is no longer any transparency! This of course is not an acceptable fix since it limits design options. In Photoshop tried color modes of RGB and CMYK.
- ID and Photoshop color settings: North American General Purpose. They are synchronized.
- In the print dialog, Color Management, Printer Profile. This was first Document RGB – Adobe RGB (a998). Tried the second option of Working RGB – xRGB IEC61966-21. Same problem. Normally use the first option.
- In the print dialog, Output. Simulate Overprint was unchecked. Checked it. Same problem.
- In InDesign, Edit, Transparency Blend Space, tried both RGB and CMYK.
I haven’t tried all possible permutations of the above, since the problem could have multiple causes.
Also tried a few other things, too many to remember.
I’m stumped and would appreciate some help. Thanks!
Otherwise ID is an excellent product.

The Yucky Discolored Box article was written in 2006. By now there must be a solution out there, but I can't figure it out because I'm not an ace on the many factors involved.....
The 6280 is no spring chicken, either, and was not exactly a high-end printer when it was new. It does waht it does as far as how it processes your file, and there's nothing you can do about that other than find a printer that doesn't use a "dual-layer" processor.
You do want to be a little careful about using Mike's font outlining suggestion. Up to CS4 (if memory serves) it was a very relaible method, but it depended on a bug in ID to outline all the type. That bug has been fixed and no type is only outlined when necessary, so you can end up with uneven-looking type in your PDF. See Possible bug: oulining text w/ flattener in CS5

Transparency problems in director

Hi all ,
We are trying to acheive transparency for 3D models. When
using png textures with transparency details we either get 100%
transparency or 0% transparency. semi transparent areas are
converted to 0% transparency. We are using 3dsmax 7.0 to export the
3D models. The inbuilt shockwave player in 3dsMax displays models
with correct transparency details , but when its taken to director
we are getting transparency problems.
Any one please help me
How to get correct transparency for 3d models in director ?
I also require following information.
1. What version of directx is supported by Adobe director.
2. Is there a standalone w3d viewer that supports directx
9.0c .
Thank you for your time and consideration.
regards
Avanthika

when you export a model out of max it exports with
transparency on some colors will show up invisible in the preview
window
but you can use 3dpi in director and turn transparency off or
lingo but 3dpi is quicker

PLEASE HELP - COLOR SHIFTING PROBLEM on output NTSC monitors

http://www.smmlv.com/testproject/
Above is a link to a layered photoshop file that has a USA map and over a dozen network overlays used in a section of our video. I animate each layer on sepeartely in the video and have noticed a major problem recently, the color of the art does not hold true to placement. I created the art originally in Illustrator and then converted the file to Photoshop at 640x480, 72dpi. This has always worked perfectly in the past to display and animated artwork in FCP.
Right now, in FCP I am using the NTSC DV 3:2 frame size, and the compressor of DV/DVCPRO - NTSC. I have a JVC Profressional DV deck that hooks up through firewire and sends S-Video to my monitors. This setup has always given me a great picture even though it is not completely upcompressed. Using these settings and this art, the color lines on this map in red, light blue, yellow and purple all have a "color shift" to the left about 5 pixels. It makes it appear that the line is where it is in the file, but the color overlaying the line is offset to the left 5 pixels and transperant to about 50%. This occurs only when viewed on some TV's and NTSC monitors and projectors. The strange thing is, some monitors display the color aligned almost perfectly on these maps and other monitors and projectors show this "digital halo" of color shifting really bad. If I take the layered network overlays in these colors and color tint them to black or grey, white, light green, or even light orange, they no longer have the color shifting and the detail is perfect.
Is there any way to fix this problem? I have tried duplicating the sequence and setting the compressor to 8bit Uncompressed, and while my captured footage is not this compression, in theory the art should render at this higher resolution setting. This did nothing to solve the problem.
I also have tried using different Broadcast safe and Y/C corrector filters with different results. The Y/C filter allowed me to reposition the color problem and thus removing most of the problem, but also removing most of the color. Nothing else has allowed me to seemingly move the color into the proper possition.
What is causing this color shift on the displayed NTSC image?
In FCP 4.5 I can see my rendered video in the program viewer screen and besides the pixel compression appearing on the lines, overall the video looks great paused or even better when playing. Then you view it through my deck onto my Pro Sony NTSC 19" color monitor and it also appears great, with a slight color halo to the left of these colors, but the color in the lines are there. If you are a few feet from the screen and know what you are looking for you might see it, but doubtful. Then you view it using the same signal on a 17" Samsung TV and the color shifting makes the map and other art, like the clients blue logo, look horrible, with each color line appearing twice and offset left from each other as if you had double vision. Normally I would think it is the TV causing this, but then we tested this same movie on 2 differnt projectors. The $700 Epson projector displayed everything beautifully, again with only the slightest color halo to the left, but then the Panasonic $4000 projector made everthing in these colors look double vision again. What is going on???
One more thing to keep in mind, my color bars also show this problem with these colors as well as shot footage of these facilities. There are tall red poles in the shots and everything displays fine except for the red pole color looks like it's glowing off the pole to the left.
PLEASE tell me there is a solution to this.

I have tried Degaussing, using filters, changing cables, and testing other monitors and systems on these monitors, everthing I can think of to solve the issue. Is it FCPo or is it the monitors?... or is it a signal strength thing. Can monitors and projectors shift color when the signal is read from a DVD or Mini DV Deck? Is there a fequency difference (Ie: 75mgz or 80 mgz) that might be causing the shift in some monitors and not so badly in others. But if this was true, how would some DVD's (like Baby Einstein DVDs that use really bright colors) display red and blue perfect using these same player and monitor, while my projects is shifting color? Doesn't that rule out the signal from the DVD player if other DVD's do not have this issue?
I have uploaded the original art used, an exported .jpg file from the FCP timeline and sample photos of 2 different monitors to show to show this problem as best I can. http://www.smmlv.com/testproject/
Someone out there must have had this problem before. There's no way a color shift problem like this with Mini DV has gone on this long without someone seeing it.
One last thing about what I have tried... I do understand that with editing in Mini DV instead of uncompressed or HD video I lose a bit of resolution (4:2:2) and I see this compression occuring in some of the areas in the video where these problems persist. But, I did remake the art and rerender this project in an 8bit uncompressed settings and then displayed that up on the screen and I get the same color shift. I keep going in circles trying to find the culprit that is causing the delema.
PLEASE HELP! There are large tours going through our facilities daily and the large screen projector is displaying this problem as well. Let's just hope they don't notice and that their TV's at home or office does not display it on our final DVD's made.

Background-color:transparent !important; is not working in IE

Hi,
In my sharepoint site i have used "background-color:transparent !important;" css. It is not working in IE but in Mozilla is working fine.
And I am using IE 11. Please let me know is there any thing wrong in the syntax. If that is the case please provide me correct solution for that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Saya

Thank you for your reply.
I have checked given links. Those are not use for this issue.
Actually in my sharepoint site the same code "background-color:transparent
!important;" was working fine before installing sharepoint 2010 service pack 2. After installation we got this issue. And if i change "transparent"
with any color, it is applying that color. Only "transparent"
background css is not working in IE.

Do you know why the span style="color: Transparent;" build tag is set in topics as if by magic?

Hello,
We are using Robohelp 9 - 9.0.1.232
It happens that some topics contain the <span style="color: Transparent;"> build tag.
It seems that RH9 sets this tag by its own. We do not manage such tags.
We come upon this while viewing one of our compiled CHM files. There was a big empty space inside a paragraph.
We opened and found that the text was present. Using the HTML view, we discovered that the empty space in the CHM file corresponded to a paragraph included in the <span style="color: Transparent;"> build tag.
For example, this morning, looking at a topic of another CHM file, we found When the tool runs,. The rest of the sentence was included in a <span style="color: Transparent;"> build tag.
This is extremely annoying, as we do not know that this tag is set, until we discover it. We ar elikely to deliver doc with missing information without knowing it, until a customer complains.
Has anyone encountered this or has an idea about this? How can we prevent RH9 from setting this tag?
Thanks for your help

Hi there
First, let's get a bit clearer on our terminology, shall we?
What you are seeing is not a "Build Tag". Sure, the Span indicates a tag and it's there when you build, but a "Build Tag" is a special tag inside RoboHelp that you apply to specific content that you wish to omit from the build using a counterpart known as a "Build Expression".
A Build Tag in RoboHelp looks like this:
<?rh-cbt_start condition="InProgress" ?>New model coming<?rh-cbt_end ?>
What you are reporting is an inline styling element.
Is this a project that began life in RoboHelp 9? Or was it created in an earlier version and was upgraded along the way? Does the same thing occur with a totally new topic you create?
Cheers... Rick

Color Separations Problem in Acrobat 8/9 Pro

We recently discovered a color separation problem in Acrobat 8 Pro and 9 Pro. In version 7 Pro we could select and thus include 'empty' color sep pages. Now when we select seps of the all the available colors, seps are produced only for those colors actually used in the job. This is true of pre-separated and in-rip seps. Can anyone shine some light on this 'change'? Thanks!

Pavilion dv7-4060us Color Printing Problems...

I just bought a new Pavilion dv7-4060us Notebook and am having problems printing in color. I have a Xerox Phaser 8550DP PS Printer that I'm trying to connect to through a wireless network connection. I can find the printer on the network and install the "Xerox Phaser 8550DP PS" driver online just fine. But, after all that, when I try to print, it will only print in Black and White. For some reason it just will not print in color. I've looked through all my "printer properties" and it doesn't even show color options! It's like my computer just doesn't even recognize that the printer can print colors. Like maybe that printer's driver is for some reason not recognizing it as that actual printer?!
I tried deleting the printer and the driver off my computer and installing it using the printer's original CD, but it says it's not compatible with Windows 7 OS. But installing the driver via online and using the CD should basically be the same thing shouldn't it? So that can't be the problem. The "HP printer help website" doesn't really help at all because it's a Xerox printer and not an HP. After reading through some forum posts I figured maybe it was a firewall problem, but wouldn't the firewall stop me from printing all together...not just prevent me from printing color?
Has anyone seen this happen before or heard of anything like this happening? Right when I got the computer I kind of went through and deleted a few things I thought were Crapware, so the only thing I can think of right now is that maybe I accidentally deleted some kind of software program that lets me print color?! Which doesn't really make any sense, so I don't think that's it.
Also, I know it's not a Windows 7 OS problem or my wireless connection because my brother's computer uses Windows 7 and connects through wireless as well, but his can print color just fine. He set his computer up like a year ago so he can't remember how he set it all up or what he did, so he's kind of useless.
As of right now the only thing I can think of to do is try posting on this HP help forum and post on the Xerox Printer help forum and see if anyone has any advice for me. If you have any ideas I'm up for trying anything because I pretty much NEED to be able to print from this computer!! Any information can help out a lot so just let me know. Thanks!

I have exactly the same problem with my dv7-4171us, my husband has the same printer and it print fine on my Xerox but mine only prints in black and white, its very frustrating. I called HP and after 2 hours on the phone they couldnt fix it either.
I'm thinking of doing a full "f11" factory restore. If anyone knows how to fix the color printing problem please let me know.

Lightroom (ACR 4) color management problems

Lightroom (or ACR 4) has some color management problems. When I develop a DNG into Photoshop (sRGB) everything looks great. Then I proof colors for the web (monitor RGB) the reds become oversaturated. I don't see this problem when I develop the same DNG using Bridge (ACR 3).
Any picture that I develop using LR that looks great in Photoshop, becomes way too red when published on the web.
Whats going on here?

I have confirmed this finding using Photoshop CS3 beta - same problem in converting to the web - too red!

Color Scheme Problems in Ultiboard

Hi, I've been having trouble with the color scheme problems in Ultiboard ever since I upgraded form 10.0 to 10.1. The color schemes will not save in Ultiboard 10.1, even with the new patch 10.1.0.1, this problem is persistant.
Here's the problem in detail:
In global Preferences, I click on "Colors", and then New Scheme, give it a name, and I define my colors. However, when I open a new file, the colors are reverted to the default. When I check the preferences again, the name that I have given to my color scheme is labeled as "User settings", and they are the same as the default colors.
This is really annoying as every time I open a file, I have to change the color schemes. It seems like these settings are not being saved in the user-configuration file for some reason or another.
I have tried deleting my user-config file in the user directories, and started new user-config files, but to no avail, the problem is persistent. The color just will not stay.
How do I get around this problem?

Transparency problems when I distort Pdf image size (ie: 100%x99%) then Export. Is there away to fix

I sometimes have transparency problems when I distort PDF image size (i.e.: 100%x99%) then Export. Is there away to fix. Or at least be able to preflight and know I have an issue.

Mostly I have seen borders and drop shadows that will just go away or other wise not print right but only when I distort the image and only on very complicated large PDF images. When I print it at same % both horz and vert. this problem goes away.
