CS4 The Three `F' modes of PS

I like to be able to pull/drag images around in the photoshop work space, but unless the image is bigger than the workspace in some dimension, photoshop will not allow that unless one enters the 2nd `F' mode.
In that mode the interace automatically goes full screen, which I almost never want.  With a 25 inch monitor, that just isn't necessary.  At least not for the vast majority of my work.
So is there some way to make PS allow dragging of image in the 1st `F' mode, or conversely, of making 2nd `F' mode something besides full screen?
I'm not really sure if I'm numbering the modes correctly so to make sure its clear which modes I'm speaking of... I'll call the `F' mode with the black background, the 3rd `F' mode.
So starting at that 3rd `F' mode, press `F' to get to 1st and `F' again to get to 2nd.   1 and 2 in that scheme are the 2 I'm talking about.
Or just open PS and you should be in what I'm calling 1st `F' mode

Sorry for the confusion. When i said scroll the image slightly bigger
than the document window, i should have said zoom the image in
(change the viewing percentage or view size or zoom ratio) using the scroll wheel on the
mouse or with the zoom tool.
You can enable zooming with the scroll wheel on the mouse by
Edit>Preferences>General>Zoom with Scroll Wheel.
In cs4 in the stardard screen mode, using tabs, zoom the image in till it's slightly bigger
than the document window and then using the hand tool you can pan the image around
even past the document edges.
The full screen mode is supposed to allow more room for the document,
so that's why you don't see some things like the frame around the document.
The second example posted was just to show that cs5 has some improvements in
stardard screen mode versus cs4.

  • Question on the known solution to the "Three pixel text jog" problem

    Hello,
    I'm "browser-checking" my website using Dreamweaver CS4 tool for that. I've got in various places the "three pixel text jog" IE problem. I followed the link to solution proposed by DW. It says I should add an IE conditional statement in the <head> part, so that I can define the CSS zoom property for that particular element. Hence, something like that:
    <!--[if IE]>
    <style type="text/css">
    #Content p { zoom: 1; } /* three pixel text jog IE bug */
    </style>
    <![endif]--> 
    (assuming the problem occurs for a <p> inside my #Content div.)
    My question is: can I replace this by
    <!--[if IE]>
    <style type="text/css">
    #Content * { zoom: 1; } /* three pixel text jog IE bug */
    </style>
    <![endif]--> 
    For another browser problem (prevent the browsers from using some of their own default settings), it was advised to reset the margin, padding and border properties using:
       border: 0;
       margin: 0;
       padding: 0;
    (although in my case I had to later remove border: 0; because it would prevent default buttons of forms to be displayed as buttons.)
    Does this * really mean "anything"? Is it valid as used above for fixing the three pixel text jog problem? If not, do I really have to define this zoom property for any single HTML element for which it occurs? (It currently occurs for some headers, <div>, "<div> <div>" sequence, some <p>.)
    Any comment welcome...
    Emilie
    P.S.: I tried it and DW doesn't flag that problem any more, but I'm unsure how much I can trust it.

    The behavior is unexpected. The file paths are
    correct?

  • Missing Panels in all three Edit Modes (Mac -- PSE 8)

    Hello:
    Anyone have any ideas on this? Installed PSE 8 on my MacBook tonight, and thanks to this forum I've been able to troubleshoot a couple of glitches. But this one has me stumped. When i select any of the three edit options on the right side of the screen (full, quick or guided), I don't get any of the sliders or other tools that normally appear below the edit mode. Clicking the little 'Expand Panels' or 'Collapse to Icons' triangles doesn't help. The entire section where the panels should appear remains blank. I've reset the preferences (and purged the cache) but no luck there either.
    Thanks for any help.
    RussC

    OK.
    I did have PSE6 installed prior to installing PSE8 (not trial versions). After installing PSE8 I uninstalled PSE6 using the uninstall option on the CD. I didn't do anything with 'deactivate' when I uninstalled PSE6, but presumably using the CD to uninstall would take care of all the required steps. I did enter the serial number when I set up PSE8, but it sounds like it didn't register. So, I'll ininstall PSE8 using the CD uninstall option (assuming there is one, otherwise I'll use the applications uninstaller), reload, and see what happens.
    Thanks for the help.

  • How can I use the three new Logic drummers in Garage Band?

    I have the latest version of GarageBand and the latest version of MainStage, but I have not upgraded to the latest version of Logic. However, the three new drummers available with the latest update to Logic are now visible in Drummer for GarageBand. When I click on one, GarageBand asks me to download (yet again) 5 GB of content. This download has never allowed me to use the new drummers. I have restarted in Safe Boot mode and tried the installation that way, but I get the same result.
    Thanks.

    Which version of GarageBand are you asking about?
    GarageBand '11 requires an internal optical drive, and the newest GarageBand 10.0 as well.
    Insert a recordable CD in your computer’s optical drive.Before burning, be sure your computer supports the recordable CD you are using. Only computers with disc-burning capability can be used to burn a song to a CD.
    Choose Share > “Burn Song to CD.”
    Added: It does not help, to share the song to iTunes and burn a playlist from iTunes, since iTunes requires an internal optical drive as well.

  • What is the default staging mode when it is: (not specified) ?

    Hi All,
    What is the default staging mode when none is specified?
    As per docs, there are three: stage, no stage and external stage
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/apirefs.1111/e13952/taskhelp/deployment/SetAServerStagingMode.html
    Many thanks.
    Running Weblogic 10.3.5.0 on OEL.

    "stage" directory means that the EAR file will be temporarily copied to that location and will be used only when the application source directory is not available OR when the administration server is down.
    It is like a local copy of the source directory for your application.
    Sometimes, during restart/redeployment, the managed server could pick the application files from the stage directory.
    But, in general if you use the "Update" option in "Deployment", the files in the stage directory are replaced by the files from the "source" directory.
    What I suspect here is in PROD, if you might have any permission issues with the stage directory?
    Can you please check that the stage directory is owned by the user running the server process AND that the directory permissions is set to 755. And not only directory the files also should inherit the same ownership and permissions.
    That is the only thing I can suspect.

  • Mac user, OSX 10.9.4. CS6, in the new Blur gallery the pin with adjusters does not appear for any of the three blur filters. This may have occurred since taking adobe watermark add-on and updating Bridge. any ideas?

    Mac user, OSX 10.9.4. CS6, in the new Blur gallery the pin with adjusters does not appear for any of the three blur filters. This may have occurred since taking adobe watermark add-on and updating Bridge. any ideas?

    I am using Mac OSX 10.10.1 (memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, graphics Nvidia GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB)
    and my version of Photoshop is CC.
    I ran into  the same problem: I am able to place and view Blur Gallery pins but the adjustment wheel or outer control arounf the pin that allows you to tweak the blur value disappeared after being initially available. Additionally, the placed pin or pins appear to flicker on screen (while in blur gallery mode) until committing the change with the OK button. I have tried restarting both the computer and Photoshop, as well as what some other users have suggested such as View>Show>Edit pins turned on. Nothing has helped so far. I am still able to adjust the blur amount  from the Blur Tools slider. thank you.

  • Photoshop CS4 - CMYK as default mode?

    Hi there,
    I'm running Photoshop CS4 an a few machines using Windows Vista and Windows 7, and I'm wondering if there is a way to change the default mode to CYMK when making a new document, importing pictures etc.
    At the moment, everything is RGB orientated. I've looked in Photoshop preferences and browsed the forums etc to no avail.
    So my question is this: Is there a way to change the default colour mode to be CMYK when creating and opening documents?
    I'm guessing there isn't an easy option (unless I've missed it), so is could it maybe be done a plugin or script?
    Thanks for reading, and any thoughts, questions and answers appreciated
    Thanks

    Photoshop remembers the setting in the File > New... dialog window. When you create a new image Photoshop always displays this window, for Color Mode choose CMYK and next time when you create a new image your last choice will be automatically selected.
    However there is one exception, when you have copied image data to your clippboard. Then the Color Mode option will be automatically set to the color mode of the image that is in the clipboard. You can always clear image data from your clipboard by copying something else like text.
    When opening documents, they will open in the color mode they were saved. If you want to convert them to CMYK you have to choose that from the Image > Mode menu.

  • How to set the full screen mode using setClip method

    hi all,
    how to set the full screen mode using setClip in that softkeys should not be used insteat on that need to create a own softkeys using commands.
    thanks & regards
    Bala.

    In CS5 there are changes made to how the screen mode is reported. In CS3-CS5 the screen mode has a corresponding number. So for instance if the ScreenMode is set to "Preview Off" and you ask indesign CS3 or CS4 to display the screen mode, it will report "1936552047", while in CS5 it will report "PREVIEW_OFF".
    try executing this simple command in respectively CS3, CS4 and CS5 and you will see what I am talking about:
    alert(app.activeWindow.screenMode);
    there is no difference if you do:
    alert(app.activeDocument.layoutWindows[0].screenMode);
    The CS5 solution is rather awkward to work with, unless I am missing something? PREVIEW_OFF is not a string, nor is it a number.
    Example -  doing:
    myScreenMode=app.activeDocument.layoutWindows[0].screenMode;
    and then trying to reset screenMode by something like:
    app.activeDocument.layoutWindows[0].screenMode= myScreenMode
    does not work in CS5 of course. It will throw an error. Neither will this line work:
    app.activeDocument.layoutWindows[0].screenMode=ScreenModeOptions.myScreenMode;
    Any way of working around this?

  • How does the SSAS storage mode (MOLAP/ROLAP/HOLAP) fits into the BI Semantic Model?

    Hi there,
    I've been reading some posts and whitepapers about the BI Semantic Model (BISM) but there is something that is a bit unclear to me.
    If we imagine Venn diagrams, how does the concept of BISM fits along the storage modes, such as MOLAP, HOLAP and ROLAP? How does these two concepts work together?
    Are they completely independent from the other, or do they overlap somehow? Can I have 
    Regards,
    P.

    BISM is just a marketing term referring to any type of Analysis Services model. What is more important is Multidimensional models can have three storage modes: MOLAP, ROLAP, or HOLAP. Tabular models can have two storage modes: In-Memory or DirectQuery.

  • I have 3 older ext. hard drives that I've utilized many times. Today while searching for old files, one of the three is no longer recognized by my PowerMac.  Any suggestions?

    I have 3 older ext. hard drives that I've utilized many times. Today while searching for old files, one of the three is no longer recognized by my PowerMac. The drive is not listed in Disk Utility.  Any suggestions?

    Is the computer in you equipment line:
    Dual Core Intel Xenon
    (which is not a PowerMac but a Mac Pro) the one you are asking about, or do you have an older PowerMac?
    If a Mac Pro, their forums are here:
    Mac Pro
    and, as Mac Pros have a totally different architecture from the pre-2005 Macs this forum covers, you may not have the same issues that can affect the older models. If someone didn't notice your equipment line, you could get advice that doesn't apply.
    If you really have a pre-2005 PowerMac, read on.
    If the stubborn external is USB and does not have its own power brick (i.e., it gets power only from the computer's UBS ports--"bus powered"), it may not be getting enough power. As electric motors age, they can demand more power than when new, and the power available on any USB port is limited.
    The typical workabouts to making a computer recognize an aging, bus-powered USB drive are:
    Get a powered USB hub (has its own power brick
    Get a "Y" USB cable: 1 Meter USB 2.0 A to 5 Pin Mini B Cable - Auxiliary USB "Y" Power Design for external hard drives.
    The second gets power from two USB ports on the computer and often that's enough.
    Remember that the USB ports on your keyboard seldom provide enough power even for a thumb drive, so be sure to use the USB ports on the back of the computer.

    Did you remove Quicktime X?
    On a normal install Quicktime 7 is installed in the Utilities folder and Quicktime Pro in the main Applications folder.
    You will need to reinstall OS X to get Quicktime X back if you have deleted it.
    I notice yor profile says 10.5.8. Quicktime X is only available on 10.6 and above.

  • I currently use an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac computer for business.  The three devices have Contacts Managers that sync with each other through both Google and through Mobile Me.  Currently, this has created a mess of duplicate contacts.  Please researc

    I currently use an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac computer for business.  The three devices have Contacts Managers that sync with each other through both Google and through Mobile Me.  Currently, this has created a mess of duplicate contacts.  Please advise me on the steps necessary for removing these duplicates and establishing a syncing solution that doesn't regenerate the duplicates.  There are several applications available that remove duplicates, but I am not sure which ones work or don't work.  I want information on this, but most importantly I want to understand how to fix this problem permanently.  Also, I read somewhere that Mac's new operating system, Lion, can help deal with duplicates.  I don't have Lion, but I would be willing to get it, if this would fix the problem.

    Had the same problem with 4 devices (two computers, an iPhone and an iPod). The solution is simple: open the Address Book application in your mac, ask it to locate duplicate entries (under one of the top menu items, "edit" I think), and then ask it to consolidate them: it took me all of three seconds after I figured it out: worked like a charm! PS: if you have more than one mac with unconected Address Books, repeating the operation in the second one may be a good idea.

  • I have three iPhone 4 models purchased in late 2010 that all share the same iTunes account (apps, music, etc), but I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones. What is the best solution to manage these devices for software updates, apps?

    I have three iPhone 4 models purchased in late 2010 (for my family) that all share the same iTunes account for access to apps and music, but each phone/user still has his/her custom contact list, email accts, and select lists of apps and music from the one iTunes acct library.  The problem is I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones – the primary phone I used to setup the iTunes acct. What is the best solution to manage these devices for software updates, apps? This is probably a common problem with families wanting to share apps and music without realizing the issues created by this approach. As it stands today... the first (primary) iPhone associated with the iTune acct has been updated with the latest software version 5.1.1 and sync'd up with all the apps, music, etc from the one iTune acct, while the other two iPhones are still running on the original software version 4.0.2 and are experiencing problems now. I was advised by AT&T back in January that it would be necessary to setup separate iTunes accts for the second and third iPhones in order to receive system updates. The problem would be how to keep all the apps, etc from being deleted off the second and third phones that were originally loaded from the one iTunes acct. Since this AT&T advice was prior to iCloud coming out, would iCloud be a better solution or at least part of the solution? I really don't yet understand how iCloud works. Hopefully, someone out there can help me??  Please?

  • How to change the 'Default operating mode' of a mapping on the repository and not from the client

    Hi everybody,
    I am using OWB 11.2.0.3 and under the mapping's configuration property, I have the necessity to change the Run time parameter "Default operating mode" to SET_BASED in almost all my mappings.
    Because I have 745 mappings in which the Default operating mode is different from SET_BASED, instead to open 745 times the 'Configure' and update manually the value, is there a way to update safely these values (with an oracle predefined script) directly on the repository ?
    I know that exists a view called CMPSTRINGPROPERTYVALUE_V based on a table called CMPSCOPrpClasses, but changing this table it's very complicated for me because contains only keys and then I don't know in which way is connected with all the other structures....
    If somebody knows a method more efficient to do these updates on the repository and not from OWB client I will appreciated it!
    Thanks in advance
