Design Editor Crashes on editing USER TEXT

I am running Designer 9i version 9.0.2.10 on windows XP. Everytime I try to use either Text Editor or HTML editor for editing user text under USER TEXT tab of a module definition, the Designer crashes. I have checked the Text Editor options under the Options menu and they are correctly formatted and defined.
Any clues?

We launch DE from the Front Panel. Inbetween we found out that it probably is caused by a conflict with other software on the PC. The problems occur on a PC with a pre-installed developer's image, and then Developer suite 10g installed on top of it. On a PC with "normal" company image it seems to be OK.

Photoshop Elements 12 Editor Crashes When Editing Raw

Hi --
Consistently when I'm editing RAW files (Canon T2) the Elements Editor 12 crashes. To repro:
1) I'll select 5-8 photos in the Organizer.
2) Right click and "Edit with PS Editor"
3) RAW importer/editor (not sure if that's the official name, but it's the screen when I can make minor edits and white balance)
4) Select all images and open.
5) Initially they'll all open in the full PSE Editor, but after editing a few the editor will hang and suddenly wierd things happen:
     a)     the "after" version of the photo is a grey and white checkerboard. If I go back to the "before" version, it looks fine
     b)     the close file "x" button in the top right is disabled (just get a beep), but if I go under "file" and "close" in the menu, the file will close.
     c)     I can't close the application itself.via the "X" button or "Exit". I need to logout or manually go into task manager and kill the process.
I have a fairly new PC with vanilla installation of Windows 8.1.
Any suggestions?

Update -- still having this problem but not it seems to happen when editing JPEG as well. I'm not sure how to repro it as it doesn't happen every time, but sometime between the 2nd and 10th photo that I try to edit the editor crashes right after I save or "save as". I hear a system bing and then the editor becomes non-responsive. I can "close' the file via the menu (not via the "x" button in the top right), but no other functionality works. Can't close the editor other than by shutting down or manually killing via Task Manager.
Incredibly frustrating. I'm thinking about uninstalling/reinstalling but am worried about losing all of the data in the catalog (~15k photos). I'm thinking about just writing the metadata to the files (most have it already) and manually copying the catalog files.
Anyone else have this problem and/or suggestions on how to address it?
Thanks much

Crash when editing URL text stored in dictionary

I sent a series of crash reports through ID to Adobe on this, I thought I would share it here as well:
Whenever I type into a text frame in an InDesign CS3 document a URL that has been stored in the spelling dictionary, such as "www.yahoo.com", and then try to select or edit that text, InDesign instantly crashes. I have tried it with new and existing documents, and several different fonts, including Type 1 and OpenType fonts. If I type a URL that is not in the dictionary, the crash does not occur.
When I remove the matching entries from the dictionary, I can type and edit those URLs without crashing. When I re-add them to the dictionary, the crashes resume.
The workaround is pretty simple, but I thought I would ask if anyone else has seen this.

On first attempt, I was unable to repeat this bug after installing the 5.0.4 update, so it appears to have been fixed.

Report editor crashs when editing

Hi
I have succesfully installed Oracle Report Builder 11.1.1.2.0 on a Windows 7.
So far it looks like everything is functioning, as I can open the report builder and create a new report.
I can open a report in order to edit it, but when I right click on "Data Model" and want to start "Report Editor", the whole program crashes...
Do anyone know a solution?

Try the following might work...Clear your temp folders then restart your Reports builder.

How can i edit user text input on a JTextField

Example: Only allow users to type integer characters (0 - 9) into a JTextField.
I have been able to edit the JText field so that it removes (Document.remove(int,int))
a char that is not an iteger char using DocumentListeners and UndoableEditListeners to the Document.
But once I do this it will not allow me to enter anything else in the field without first
tabbing out of the field and then back in again. Am I missing something?
Using jdk1.3.1, Win 2000.
Thanks

Bad news for you too.
First, you are not addressing Adobe here in the user forums.
Secondly, Adobe does not support CS3 any longer because it hasn't been sold for years.
Therefore, you're left to the good will of fellow users who volunteer their time here free of charge, if one of them has a solution to your issue. No one is under any obligation to reply, so ask nicely.
One thing I can tell you is that you have not applied any of the versions available for Photoshop. Unfortunately, the Adobe auto updater was an unmitigated piece of cr@p in any version prior to CS6. Do not rely on it to assume you are up to date just because it doesn't show any updates available to you under Help > Updates.
You need to look for the downloads and apply them manually yourself.
I can't offer any more assistance because I don't do Windows. Sorry.

Using the CTRL button to select multiple text segments in Design Editor

Hi there,
This may be a fairly elementary question, however I'm very new to RoboHelp.
I'm currently building an online help text system, and when formatting my html files in Design Editor, I have to apply styles one at a time. I was hoping RoboHelp would have a function identical to Microsoft Word whereby holding down the CTRL key would allow you to select various segments in the file and apply the style. Eg. selecting only text you want to apply Heading 3 to.
If RoboHelp does not have this functionality, this project will take me in the vicinity of 7 years to complete. Thanks for your time.
Regards,
PK

No it doesn't work that way. What you need to do is create some character styles in your style sheet and apply those.
Paragraph styles are defined something like
P {
    font-size: 10pt;
    margin-top: 0pt;
    margin-bottom: 6pt;
    font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;
    color: #000000;
    font-weight: normal;
P.Normal-Indent {
    margin-left: 20pt;
where the second P definition will inherit all that is in P plus add the indent.
When you select those styles, they will be applied to the whole paragraph.
You can also create characters classes. If you do it within RoboHelp, RH will write the CSS code for you. If you edit the CSS outside RH, then instead of writing P or some other tag, you would normally start with the full stop so you might have
.code {
    font-size: xx-small;
    font-family: Courier;
to apply the Courier font to a selection in any paragraph style.
In RoboHelp you need to prefix the character code with "span" to make it display in the dropdown, thus you would need:
span.code {
    font-size: xx-small;
    font-family: Courier;

Can an InCopy editor add, remove and edit a text frame placed inside the main story text frame?

I think I already know the answer to this which is - no. I'll explain why I am asking the question in a second, but the reason I think the simple answer is no is because - text frames are controlled by a designer in the layout file, an editor using incopy can only edit the text and images placed inside text frames, and so cannot resize them, add or delete them.
Ok, so the reason I have asked this.
Is there a way around this so that editors in incopy can edit certain types of text frame that are contained within the main text frame? I'm using these text frames to contain specific paragraph styles, giving them a boxed look and also with an anchored icon in the top left of the text frame depending on the type of paragraph it is. See screenshot as an example of a green text frame that I am using to contain paragraphs of type "tip".
If it is not possible for editors in incopy to add, edit or resize these text frames (green tip frame in the example above), then how else can I style these paragraphs to give the same visual appearance, but without the use of wrapping them in a text frame?
One (not so good) way around this is for the designer to add the text frames in the layout file after he gets the content back from the editor, then moving the "tip" paragraphs into these newly created text frames. However when the editor updates the content in incopy and gets these new text frames in their copy, they can not then delete them if they wish to, or if they add or reduce content inside of these green text frames then the frames dont grow to fit their edited content. So I dont think its a solution for the designer to control the adding, removing and resizing of these frames.
UPDATE: I have just discovered that once a text frame has been placed into the document by the designer and the editor updates their copy in incopy- they can then use the "Position Tool" to select that text frame - allowing them to resize it, or delete it! Fantastic. But would the editor be able to add these frames in themselves to begin with? Maybe have a document containing all of the objects available to them, copy and paste one of them into the main document and edit its content? Does anyone have any advice on how to go about this? Essentially I would like the editor to control the insertion, editing and removal of these inline text frames.

True. But when all I am trying to achieve is a border around a paragraph, use of a table seems overkill to me. But if thats the only solution I have so far then I will have to go down that route.
It would be useful to have an object libraries panel in InCopy so that editors can drag across predefined text frames into their doc via InCopy, but I cant see that option in InCopy. is there one? I have also thought about exporting the frames as seperate InDesign Snippets and saving them to an objects folder, then when an editor needs to insert one into their doc they simply use File > Place > "Choose required text frame snippet". However I have found that InCopy can't place InDesign snippets so that theory was a failure. Is there another format I could use to save the objects and bring them into InCopy? List below shows my findings so far for trying to save/export a text frame from InDesign and then import into InCopy:
InDesign Snippet (.idms) - can't import into InCopy
InDesign Document (.indd) - imports content as an image - only editable in InDesign
InDesign Template (.indt) - imports content as an image - only editable in InDesign
InDesign Library (.indl) - can't import into InCopy - no panel available in InCopy for object libraries (that I can see...)
InCopy Markup (.icml) - only imports the text, loses the text frame

How to edit multiple text boxes (not linked/chained) in story editor?

I don't have a book with running text, but lots of pages (70) with separate text boxes on each page plus some captions. It is a design for exhibition panels.
It is really painful to proof read. And taking a print for all these pages to proof read is a waste! Is there no way I can see "all" the text in a view, one by one (without selecting the text boxes on each page) to simply review and edit the text? Is the story editor so basic? (I don't see any options or functions in the story editor window!)

No way I know of in InDesign but what you could do is export all the content to an InCopy assignment. Open the assignment in InCopy and then check it out. That will give you all the stories to edit in Galley, Story or Layout view.
InCopy is a part of Creative Cloud. If you're on something earlier, there's little else I can offer unless you happen to be on CS6 since InCopy CS6 can still be purchased.

Action Item causes Design Editor to crash

Dear All,
I faced a problem that I couldn't find a solution for neither here, nor at Metalink.
Then after several trial and error, tedious efforts, I found the solution for it, and thought I'd share this knowledge with everyone.
When adding an action item to a module component, if the "Relative Tab Stop Editor" is set to Parent, the Design Editor will crash while trying to generate the form, without any error message, it will just close.
You have to set the "Relative Tab Stop Editor" for the module (sub module) component to None or Self.
I hope that this would help someone, and if anyone finds that I was mistaken in my findings, please let me know.
p.s. I was using Design Editor ver. 9.0.4.5.6 which I believe is the latest with no additional patches required.

If you have changed a number of objects in diagrams, you need to click on Edit, Requery All, so that any changes will be committed and retrieve the latest objects from the central repository. If you do not requery, it sometimes exit Designer during run-time.

Illustrator CC 17.1.0 crashes when editing preferences, user interface. Running on MacBook Pro i7 OSX 10.9.5

Illustrator CC 17.1.0 running on MacBook Pro i7 OSX 10.9.5 - crashes when editing preferences, user interface. Also crashes when quitting application. Anybody any ideas?

While 2 GB is the absolute minimum to install Mavericks, if you want to do anything with the Mac you need more then that. Upgrade your RAM.
Until you upgrade the RAM seriously consider shutting down the Mac nightly. You should also seriously review the items in the User Login Items to see if there are any there that you really don't need to have startup with your login to reduce the amount of RAM you are using.

No text wrapping in Design Editor display

Good morning All!
Something has happened to RH and when I look at Design Editor, the text is no longer wrapping the way it used to and I have to constantly move the scroll bar at the bottom of the interface to read what exists at the far right of the screen. (I am not referring to the text wrapping feature around a graphic.)
I have no idea what happened, its been like this for a couple days.
I sure would like to see my entire topic in the Design Editor w/o having to use the scroll bar! That's time consuming and a bit annoying.
I'd really appreciate some help.......
I am using Version 8.02208.

Why does fcpx crash every time i try to edit titles/text??

why does fcpx crash every time i try to edit titles/text?? I'm trying to wrap up a project for work and now fcpx thinks it needs to crash every time i click on a "title" to edit it. It's making the completion of this project nearly impossible.

nope, i'm just using the select tool "a" to move my titles .. if the inspector is open, the second i click on any title in any project the whole program crashes. but with the inspector closed i can move my titles at will without a crash. i'm not sure what's allowing me to manipulate titles since you've said Lion updates haven't fixed this function. and i'm not sure what's making fcpx crash to the ground every time i click a title with the inpector open. all i know is that this little loophole i've found is working for me and has allowed me to complete my project this morning which is awesome.

InDesign crashes when editing text (branched)

using the newest indesign version 752, i have the same problem as described: when i try to edit text, pasted in (from browser, word, etc.), indesign crashes. sometimes it happens, i get into the textbox ...but cannot edit the text ...seems to be locked?
did you found a solution for your problems?

Peter's correct that there is no way to downgrade short of an uninstall/reinstall.
I believe we're in a gray area discussing rapid releases on the public forum.
But let me say that I do not think you have any good reason to downgrade from 7.0.5.571 to 7.0.4.553 and that while you should certainly try it and see, because it might actually work, I would not put any money on it.
More significantly, you're running "+SmartCatalogCore v8.0.4 build 52" and Smart Catalog 8.0.5 is out. So I would upgrade first and then report the crash to Woodwing if it is reproducible.
I don't use SmartCatalog (but I do use SmartConnection), but I'd suggest you may get better support from Woodwing's forums or their actual support (or reseller support) than here. "But maybe not."
