Create outlines creates an unwanted copy. How do I change it?

Hi all,
I am aware of the option of creating a copy of the text when converting it to outlines while holding down the Alt key in PC (option key in Mac). However, once done, I can't reverse it and have a simple create outlines without the copy, resulting in a an unwanted original text frame in the back. How do I get rid of it? I didn't find anything in the preferences, nor in the help center. Doing it again with the Alt key pressed didn't change it either.
Help anyone?
Thanks,
Tami

No, this bug/limitation has been there in the ME version since day 1.
Winsoft seems in no hurry to fix it. I wrote this script to simplify the
outline/delete process...

try{
if(app.selection[0].constructor.name=="TextFrame"){myFrame =
app.selection}
else{myFrame = app.selection[0].parentTextFrames}
for(i=myFrame.length-1;i>=0;i--){
myFrame[i].createOutlines();
myFrame[i].remove();
catch(e){}

  • Sales order type creates a project.  How do I change this?

    When I create a certain sales order type, it prompts me to enter a network type and a standard wbs.  I do not want this to happen.  How do I change this? Can any one help me with this?

    Hi,
    Please check the incompletion procedure in VOV7 for your item category and go to OVA2 and navigate to the procedure under sales-item group.  Mark those fields (WBS element, network) as warning / remove the fields.
    But please make sure that this will impact all other item categories too which uses this incompletion procedure.

  • My ical will not let me add events it saying my calender was created by mail.  How can I change this.  We use mobile me and synch

    Does anyone know how I can add events to my desktop ical when the message I receive says that the calender was created by Mail
    I do not know how this happened.  I managed to synch and change this some months ago but I do not know how!

    Hi Cara,
    Welcome to Discussions.
    With iCal closed, try deleting it's preference file (User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iCal.plist).
    If this does not work try repairing permissions. Open Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility) and select your boot volume on the left and click Repair Permissions.
    If neither of these work post back.

  • How can we change the purchasing group which it is maintained in R/3?

    Hello All.
    In case of MM, purchasing group is assigned to material master.
    It means purchasing group is maintained based on material code.
    But SRM has different maintenance level.
    As you know that purchasing group has the responsibility based on material group (Product category).
    So we should change the purchasing group from R/3, when end user create shopping cart.
    How can we change the purchasing group which it is maintained in material master?
    Thank you,
    Best regards,

    Hello So Hee,
    I am not a technical guy.
    But for your requirement i am building a logic.
    I am not sure whether it will work.
    You need to check with your ABAPER.
    It is as below:
    When the SC is approved and the other configuration is correct ,
    PR is created in ECC by the virtue of BAPI.
    You want that the pur grp should be populated on the base of matl code and not on matl grp.
    Hence in SC you will not fill up pur grp.
    In the programme for BBPSC01 i.e. SC creation you will add modification that it will call a custom FM.
    This custom FM will get the matl code from SC and will find the value of pur grp from R/3 MM01i.e. matl master(you may get in MARA).
    Now in the BAPI you need to incorporate this additional value of yr pur grp field.
    So the desired pur grp as per yr R/3 matl master will be populated in yr R/3 PR.
    Again: this is all hypothesis.
    That's all I can help you.

  • How do I change the text in a PDF?

    I am new to the whole creating "fillable" PDFs. How can I change the font or add text to a PDF or is that even possible?

    Hi bewitched tabby,
    I see that you have an Acrobat Pro subscription, so you absolutely can add or edit text in a PDF. Here are some great resources for you, both for adding and formatting text, and for editing form field properties:

    Adobe Acrobat X Pro * Modify form field properties (also applies to Acrobat XI)
    Please let us know how it goes.

  • When creating a fillable form and saving it as a pdf, the default color of the data fields is a light blue. How do I change the color to something else that will copy better, e.g. a light yellow?

    When creating a fillable form and saving it as a pdf, the default color of the data fields is a light blue. How do I change the color to something else that will copy better, e.g. a light yellow?

    It's probably the fields highlight color of the application, which you can change via Edit - Preferences - Forms.

  • Somehow I created a live copy of "Finder" on my desktop.  It is titled "iPhoto Library", and has live copies of all of my files/photos/music.  How can I make it go away without deleting all of my content?

    Somehow I created a live copy of "Finder" on my desktop.  It is titled "iPhoto Library", and has live copies of all of my files/photos/music.  How can I make it go away without deleting all of my content?

    Either you moved or copied your iPhoto library folder to the Desktop.
    Quit iPhoto. Rename the folder on your Desktop to something else, such as "foo." Launch iPhoto. If you still see all your photos, you can delete "foo."
    If you don't see your photos, quit iPhoto, rename "foo" to "iPhoto Library," and put it in your Pictures folder. Try iPhoto again.

  • How can you create a virtual copy in a Lightroom plugin?

    I looked over the Lightroom SDK and did not see any documentation on creating a virtual copy. Is there an undocumented API for this?
    If not, is there a plan to add this into the SDK?

    Hi Matt,
    Yeah, I have some good news and some bad news:
    - Good news: Keyboard stuffing (as implemented in the elare framework) works equally well on both platforms, provided the appropriate keystroke exists on both platforms.
      (Mac version uses applescript, Windows uses autohotkey - both assure Lightroom is the target) - Note: @2011-07-30, I haven't actually tested this particular function on Mac - but I've tested other similar functions on both platforms.
    - Bad news: It doesn't always work on either platform, since keystrokes may be usurped by open dialog boxes and open text fields in Lightroom...
    - Good news: failure is 100% detectable.
    Bottom line:
    If the kludgy nature of this solution would be more bad than good for you and/or your users, then this is not a viable solution.
    If your users would prefer the caveats in order to be able to get the job, then this solution will work well enough for now.
    PS - I'm presently using it in ChangeManager and its a godsend for me. Since I understand the limitations, my failure rate is appx. 0%.

  • I have been sharing an apple ID and icloud with other family members. How do I change my iphone so as to create my own account?

    I have been sharing I-cloud with other family members. How do I change my i-cloud setting on my i-phone so as to creare my own account?

    If you want to keep your iCloud data, you would need to migrate your device and a copy of the data to a new account.  To migrate to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; others keeping the account will not be effected by this), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.
    Once you are on your own account, you can go to icloud.com and manually delete any data you don't want in your account without effecting anyone else.

  • When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?

    When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?
    All of a sudden I noticed that most of the folders on my computer were no longer using the folder icon, but the generic document icon. I had to manually change back the icon being used by opening Get Info for each folder and copying and pasting the generic folder icon from some folders that remained unchanged. Now whenever I create a New Folder (right click -> "New Folder"), the icon that shows up is the generic document icon (white page with top right corner turned down). And I have to manually change it so it shows up as a folder in Finder or on my desktop. I don't know why or how this switch happened. All of the folders now on my computer look ok, but I need to change the default so when I create a New Folder it uses the correct icon.
    I have also Forced Relaunch of my Finder and rebooted the system. I downloaded Candybar but am not sure what will fix anything, so I haven't proceeded.
    Anyone know how I can do this? Thanks.

  • I am not able to access Firefox under one user account on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

    I use windows Vista and I cannot open Firefox under one user account (I keep receiving the "firefox profile cannot be loaded . . ." error message) on my computer so I created another account. How can I transfer the bookmarks from the old account?

    NOTE: you can skip this 1st step.
    Step 1
    I'm on Win7 so the paths might be slightly different... C:\Users\(YOUR PC ACCOUNT)\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\bnelgkol.default\bookmarkbackups ... Find the "bookmarks-[DATE].json" you want and copy it to the profile you want. You may want to change the date to a name you will recognize.
    Step 2
    Then on your browser "Bookmarks>Show All Bookmarks or Ctrl+Shift+B ". This will bring up the Bookmark Organizer, I think they call it Library now. From there click "Import & Back up>Restore" this will bring up a drop down with your back ups. If you followed step 1, find the json you added and select it. If you skipped step 1, from "Import & Back up>Restore" select "Choose File..." Then browser for the json you want to import. Which should be in a similar location as mentioned in step 1.
    NOTE: "AppData" is a hidden folder, will have to set show hidden folders to be able to see it.
