Cp5 - Button properties panel

Hi all
This is frustrating me so I'm hoping someone has some tips. When I copy a button from one project to another, I often want to change the button image. In the button properties, there is a little folder icon that lets me open my button gallery folder on the C: but it is only just accessible, and sometime, not visible at all (see image). To the right of the 'image button' combo box, I should see a folder, so I can quickly find the button image I need, but in this case it is not visible and there are no horizontal scroll bars at the bottom of the properties panel.
Has anyone had this issue and found a resolution or work around? Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
Amanda

OK. Well in that case your best recourse might be to copy the files for your buttons in the Gallery and rename them to have much shorter names. I don't think moving the buttons around is going to fix the issue. And (from memory) renaming the existing buttons doesn't do the trick either. Captivate sets the width of this area by the name of the longest button in the Gallery. But for some reason, even if you remove or rename those buttons so that they are all short-named again, Captivate seems to think they are still there. It retains settings somewhere about this. You may even need to delete your Preferences file to reset everything.

How do I remove old image buttons from Properties panel?

Hi,
I have been working out how to use Image Buttons in Captivate 6 and have created loads which now appear in the Properties Panel.
How do I remove unused image buttons from the Properties Panel?
Thanks

Hi there
When you look at the Properties panel, you see ALL available images for the buttons. (Assuming that you are referring to to the stock images supplied by Captivate)
Is this the list you are trying to clear?
If so, it's the same list you see with any project Captivate creates.
Cheers... Rick

CS4, Half Missing Target button in Properties Panel

Hi,
I was wondering if anybody has ever since this: my target button in the Properties Panel is only half visible (and not the good half). I have tried to change the view, even rest it, close and re open the Properties Panle, but nothing works. Anybody has any idea ? Thanks !

See if this helps at all...

How do I pin the DW properties panel to the bottom of the editor?

I use the Accordion widget quite a lot, and to edit it I use the Properties panel. Until recently, it had been pinned to the bottom of the DW editor. However the techs at Adobe, in their infinite wisdom, decided to change it into a free floating panel, or I can pin it to the side of the editor. For me, this is absolutely a PITA. It's far easier for me to have it docked/pinned at the bottom of the editing window. Is there any way for the Properties panel to be pinned/docked at the bottom of the editor?
Thanks

Click the properties window's named tab and drag it to the edge of the application frame. When the edge highlights, let go.
Incidentally, you can do that with all of the windows in DW to create your own custom workspace by attaching windows to each other or to the sides/bottom of the application frame. The Insert panel can even be turned into button icons in the top toolbar if dropped there (very handy space saver).
Get everything set the way you like, go to Window > Workspace Layout > New... to give it a name and save it.

Properties panel for masks not working

The apply, disable and delete buttons on the properties panel for masks does not work in PSD CC. Is this a bug or do I have some setting not set correctly? If I want to apply a layer mask I have to drag it to the trash in the layers panel then make a choice on a popup menu. They worked in CS6.

I don't know exactly what is going on with your friend's system, but the instance you mentioned of Applying layers masks, was actually a safety error trap. i.e. Do you really want to trash this layer mask or do you want to Apply it before deleting it.
In CC the Adjustment layer, and Masks share the same Properties panel, so you have to have a mask selected to view the masks panel. It all works sensibly IME. As I said above, you were coming at something a bit left field. That's not necessarily wrong. Whatever workflow works best for you is best for you, but there might be better ways to do things.
A lot of us rail innitially at changes to apps we have used in a certain way for many years, but IME they always turn out to be for the better once you get used to them.

Properties panel

Silly question, but how do I keep the properties panel from disappearing each time I use it? I just want it to stay available.

Keep in mind that the Properties Inspector is context sensitive, and changes depending on your focus within the document window. Iif you are using CS4, you have the opportunity to see either the HTML or the CSS Properties Inspector via the buttons on the left side of the Properties Inspector.
It should 'be there' persistently, but it will look different in different contexts. You may only see a grey bar labelled "Properties"; click on the bar and it opens the panel. If you are not seeing it at all, either closed or open, go to Window > Properties to bring it back.
Investigate the workspace layout; become familiar with the interface. You'll be glad you did.

Properties panel missing things in css mode (CS4)

Hi - I'm doing a tutorial in css with a Dreamweaver CS4 pre-designed layout. I want to make a nav bar by using an unordered list and hyperlinking the words in the list.
My properties panel (bottom of the window) in css mode does not show a box for links or a gizmo for making lists, indents, etc.Shouldn't those be available?
Do I have to use the menus at the top? Do I switch to <>HTML to get the features that are missing in css mode?
Insights would be appreciated.
Thank you.

They are when you click on the HTML button on the Property inspector.

Properties Panel is missing pieces!

Hello~
Until recently, when I was building CF forms in Dreamweaver I
could click on a cfinput field in Design View and set validation
rules, etc., directly in the Properties panel. However... now, all
I see when I click on a cfinput field is a little CF icon, the word
cfinput, a button "Attributes," and a dropdown menu to change the
class of the object. Is there a way to re-expand this? The
Attributes button isn't really even very helpful! Has anyone else
had this problem? Thanks.

Which version of BOBJ do you use? Which is the exact workflow to reproduce the problem?

Where is text properties panel?

In Dreamweaver 8, when I highlighted a word or text, there was a properties panel at the bottom. In that panel I could set or change format, font, style, size, color, bold, italic, align left, align right, align center, justify, set a link, and set a target.
In Dreamweaver CS4 I can not find that same panel. Is there a panel with all the items above? If so, how do I open it?

Actually it is in the same panel, just slightly altered. In that properties window you will see two buttons on the left side, one for HTML and one for CSS. The CSS is what controls the style of the text you may have highlighted so those features are now there to create a separation between editing HTML and CSS. This will be true for other elements as well such as table backgrounds.

Lost drag and drop properties panel CP8

I developed a project in Captivate 7. It included some drag and drop interactions. I've upgraded to CP8 as we want to be able to release the training on mobile devices.
I have not set it up to be a responsive project at this point - I've not learned enough about how to do that.
I can create and edit new drag and drop interactions but as soon as I save them, close the file and reopen it, they are no longer editable. The drag and drop properties panel won't show up, the D&D outlines (blue and green) disappear, the D&D option in interactions is greyed out and I cannot edit the interaction at all. It still has the submit button in the corner and this cannot be deleted. There doesn't seem to be a way to edit the interaction at all.
When I go to close the file and save it, it tells me that it is a captivate 7 file and as soon as I save it, it won't open in Captivate 7 only 8. Save as just saves it as a Captivate file.
How can I work around this?

Drag&Drop would not work in responsive projects anyway.
Maybe this is due to the upgrade? And I suppose you are working in Newbie mode, where panels are controlled by Captivate? You could try in Expert mode (fourth option 'Enable...' in Preferences) because it will allow you to open the Drag&Drop panel from the Window menu.

DreamWeaver in Win7: cannpt see the Properties Panel

Can anyone tell solution to this problem?
I've installed Dream to Windows 7, works fine, but I cannot see the Properties Panel
Solution is, to set Font Size in Control Panel to "Default (100%)"

That fixed the problem - thanks!
I did have both of those fonts ON already, but noticed that there were other versions of Tahoma and Verdana (with lower version numbers) that were OFF. I switched OFF the newer versions and switched ON the older versions of Tahoma and Verdana and the properties box was full of text, buttons, etc. just like it was supposed to be.
I've spend hours talking with Adobe, who said it was probably a problem with my display drivers and sent me to Apple. Apple said they were no longer supporting the ATI board in my 2009 MacPro and that I would need a new computer. I told Adobe and they said they would continue working on the issue, which they have - I've received several phone calls and emails from them, but no solutions.
How weird that running the newest versions of Tahoma and Verdana caused the problem and turning them off and using the older, Microsoft Office versions solved it. Must be a lesson here, but I don't know what that would be.
Thanks again!

What do you have selected when you do this? The contents of
the Property
inspector are context sensitive.

I have CC and while attempting Light Effects, the Light Effects Layer will appear in the layers panel, but the option bar will not appear and neither will the Properties panel. All my preferences are set correct, and my computer has a compatible video card and RAM. Please help!
I tried to delete the layer attempt again. I am in a Photoshop class, but the work is all online, so all my teacher is going to do is send me to this site. I am trying to edit a photo for this class, and without this working, i go to filter>render>light effects. the bar and panel will pop up for about 2 seconds, then disappear. How do i get the options bar and properties panel to display?

I was about to suggest resetting LE from the Workspace drop-down top right corner, but if you can't see the Options Bar, I guess that is not going to happen. The normal Tool reset is grey out for LE, so it might be a case of resetting Preferences.

Character Styles in CSS Properties Panel are not correct

I am using Adobe Illustator CC.
I am trying to export all of the charter styles as CSS. However the CSS panel is not generating the correct style.
Right now, in the Character Styles Panel and CSS Properties Panel I have 3 styles (Default, h1, h2)
This is how they are defined in the Character Styles Panel:
1. [Normal Character Style]:Helvectic Neue LT Std, 55 Roman, 16px
2. h1: Helvectic Neue LT Std, 25 Ultra Light, 35px
3. h2: Helvectic Neue LT Std, 45 Light, 18px
HOWEVER
When I go to the CSS Properties panel the code is not showing the Font Style:
This is how they are defined in the CSS Properties Panel:
1. [Normal Character Style]:
.NormalCharacterStyle
font-family : Helvetica Neue LT Std;
font-size : 16px;
color : #19131F;
color : rgb(25, 19, 31);
2. h1:
.h1
font-family : Helvetica Neue LT Std;
font-size : 35px;
letter-spacing : 0.53px;
color : #FFFFFF;
color : rgb(255, 255, 255);
Missing: 25 Ultra Light
3. h2:
.h2
font-family : Helvetica Neue LT Std;
font-size : 18px;
text-transform : uppercase;
color : #FCFCFC;
color : rgb(252, 252, 252);
Missing: 45 Light
Am I not doing somethign correctly? Is it a problem with my font or with Illustrator?
Also, in case it makes a difference, I only have the default paragraph style defined. It's style is; Helvectic Neue LT Std, 55 Roman
Thanks!

CSS cannot render typographical multiple weight fonts simply because that's just not how it works. All CSS does is reference a physical font file and its properties and while it's possible to use the font-weight and font-style attributes to make standard fonts lighter or bolder it does not compare to anything you would do with the font in a real design environment. That and of course you still need to define fallback/ substitution options - the Helvetica Neue you are referencing is exclusively available on Apple systems only and even if what you are trying worked off the bat, it would be useless on alternate devices that have no access to the font.

Thanks so much. Thought it was just the name of the button and did not realize it was the value. Now able to use them for calculations.
