Document name displayed in semi-opaque black box

I have an eMac with OS 10.3.9, and occasionally the name of a document I'm working with will show up on the screen and won't go away, even after the document is long closed.
It shows up in a small black "box" with white lettering that I can see through, but barely.
It's about 1/3 of the way up the screen and maybe 1/4 in from the left.
It doesn't slow the computer down at all, but it's very annoying because it covers what I'm working on, and it only goes away if I completely log off.
Any ideas? it's not an urgent problem, but I would like to fix it because it impedes my work. I do a lot of design work, and it's inconvenient to log off all the time because I have a small box covering my document.
Thanks,
Christy

Hi Christy,
What application you use when you working in that document?
* Is this maybe a auto-backup document that you setup in the application you work with?
** Can you select that document on the desktop an get info by holding down the command-i key?
Post back ...

Images not Displaying (Showing as a black box) in Excel 2011 for Mac

I'm using Office 2011 for Mac, on a 2013 iMac with Mavericks (10.9.4).
I have a .jpg image I'm trying to insert in the footer, and it is only showing as a black box. I even tried saving as a .pdf, and it still shows as a black box. How can I fix so that it shows the image?
Thanks!

Hi,
This forum is to discuss problems of MS Office development in the Windows OS such as VBA, VSTO, Apps for Office .etc. But I think your question is related to the end-user feature of MS Office:Mac. So I suggest you posting your issue in Office for
Mac support for more efficient responses.
Thanks.

Can I turn off the setting that displays the height and width in a little black box when using the marquee tool?

In Photoshop CC, on a mac...
When using the marquee selection tool, a little black box pops up next to the curser and displays in real time, the height and width of the selection. The same annoying box also appears when dragging an item with the move tool, displaying the numerical location of the cursor. Is there anyway to turn off the display of that little black box? It is driving me bonkers.

Under the preferences cmd/ctrl-k click on "Interface". At the bottom of the UI is a drop down box for show transformation. Set that to "Never"

Problem with .png images being black boxes in InDesign

Hello,
I'm hoping someone might be able to help me with a problem I'm having with some .png files. When I try to place certain .png files in my InDesign document, they come in as just black boxes. The .png files are created by a third party application, (EditLive w/MathFlow) But if I view the .png files in Fireworks or other image viewers, they appear to be fine. I have tried looking at the image properties inside InDesign, to see if by tweaking them it might work, but I am not a graphic designer by trade so my knowledge is rather limited. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Specs:
Windows XP
CS4 Suite including:
Adobe InDesign CS4
Fireworks CS4
Thanks,
Josh

That worked! Mostly. The little preview box on the file upload dialog still shows a black box. But when the image is placed inside the doc it looks perfect. Well, as perfect as the .png can look.
Is there any way within InDesign to "ignore" the alpha channel or whatever of the graphic? I have access to the IDML as well as the normal application interface & the SDK through the InDesign Server. I'd prefer not to be reliant on opening the image in another tool, as we have a large number of images to process some times & it could get annoying. If not, I can try contacting the 3rd party group that is generating the .png & see if they can better handle the alpha channel when they're creating the image maybe...
And thanks for the quick responses!

HT4689 With mission control in Mountain Lion, is there a setting that displays a document name when it is selected?

For example, if I have 4 word documents open, and go to mission control so they are all displayed, can I turn a feature on that displays the document name when my mouse is over each document?
Like in the picture, if I have my mouse over a document, the name of the document isn't displayed. Can I change this?

Hey!
I just got a new mac and was trying to figure out the same thing today!! I went from an older version to this 10.9. I called apple support, the tech had no idea what I was talking about. I was transferred to a manager who told me that it is not feature available on the new models. After a 40 minute conversation I was about to let it go and then I saw this post and became determined LOL ... and I figured it out (SMH apple support). So here is how you do you it:
system preferences > trackpad > you want to make sure the "App Expose" is checked off > and you're done!!
I am not able to upload a 2 photos so I will post a second screenshot of what it looks like once the preferences are set.

Creating a Folder Within Form or Document Library & Display the name not in the name column.

I have created a form library that will used to create folders within that. The folder creation is done using an InfoPath Form that has been uploaded to the Form Library. When the new folder was created the name will be displayed at the Name column within
the Form Library. I want to change that to another column like documents or suchlike.
Can it be done using InfoPath 2010 VSTA C# or not? If their are other options available please could you try to inform me!
Thank You,
Chiranthaka

Hi,
If you want to show the name of folder in another column, a workaround is that you can create an extra column, then create a SharePoint Designer workflow to set the value of
this column with the name of folder.
Here is a link about Create Workflow using SharePoint Designer and set field value for your reference:

Displaying Document Name With The Summary in a Single Column Using Document Library View.

Hi All,
I have a question that relates to SharePoint Document Library Views. I want to view the Documents name with the summary in a single column. Below image shows an example of it. I need this within a SharePoint Document Library. Also I want the height of the
row to be increased more than the default height. I cannot figure it out how to do that? Could you someone help me to do this. I have inserted the Document Library as an App Part to the page.
So could you someone help me to solve this matter?
Thanks and regards,
Chiranthaka

HI Chiranthaka,
You can create DataView webpart using SPD and then modify the display template according to your need.

How to read the whole name of a music title while scrolling down a list of titles? With the new iOs7 Music App there is no more black box showing the entire name!

How to read the whole name of a music title while scrolling down a list of titles? The old software-app had the function to click for a longer time on a titles beginning letters until a black box revealed the entire name. I miss this function especially for my classical music, because lots of pieces start with similar words. E.g.:
"Beethoven: Variations On "Ein Mädchen Oder Weibchen", Op. 66 - Var. 1"
"Beethoven: Variations On "Ein Mädchen Oder Weibchen", Op. 66 - Var. 2"
Scrolling in a list of title, I can't distinguish the titles, because just the first words are shown followed by: "...".
That's horrible!

Or you could include a width to your body style:
body {
background-image: url(Logo/sky1.jpg);
background-position: center center;
background-attachment: fixed;
width: 75%;}
It might work or not depending on your other color scheme.

Windows spooler display document name as local document

I saw the document name with local path at Windows spooler, even if the PDF file came from http or ftp server. I guess, it is depend on the server, because the PDF files which came from one server are displayed the file name with URL as document name, but it came from other server is displayed the file name with local path - C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\...
Could someone tell me what is difference between local path and URL path?

Here is the approach to read document set columns and assign to other webparts:
for each document set you can find the id when you clicking on the document set or navigating to the welcome page,
using this id read query string and the associated item column values and assign to otherwebpart .
Reference code:
//page_load for other webpart read the query string of welcome page
if (Page.Request.QueryString["ID"] != null)
                ID = Convert.ToInt32(Page.Request.QueryString["ID"]);
                if (itemID > 0)
                    GetDocumentSetItem(ID , site);
protected void GetDocumentSetItem(int itemid, SPSite sSiteUrl)
            SPSite site = sSiteUrl;
            SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb();
            SPList list = web.Lists.TryGetList("DocumentlibraryName"); //where documentset content type attached
            SPListItemCollection items = list.GetItems();
            SPListItem item = null;
            if (itemid > 0)
                item = list.Items.GetItemById(itemID);//getting the current item
   //read the document set item column values and assign it other webpart controls ,
                txtDocsetidname.Text = Convert.ToString(item["FileLeafRef"]);
                txtDocsetid.Text = Convert.ToString(item["hiddenfield"]);
In the welcome page I have placed button to load webpart ,while loading the webpart I am reading the query string assigning the values to otherwebparts.

How to display the RFQ Number as the Document Name in the E-Mail output.

Hi All,
I want the Document Name of the E-Mail Notification of RFQ to be the RFQ Number itself.
For eg. RFQ E-Mail-60000015096.pdf
How can this be configured?
Thanks,
Muneer.

Hi,
I have done the changes for PO. Its working fine.
But its not working for RFQ.
For eg, for PO its displaying as "PO E-Mail 45000xxxxx".
But for RFQ its just displaying "RFQ E-Mail" - Number is not coming.
I have used the text as "PO E-mail &EKKO-EBELN" for PO.
And for RFQ, I'hv used "RFQ E-Mail &EKPO-ANFNR".
Thanks,
-Muneer.

PDF Documents suddenly display as black only

Earlier this year I suddenly had numerous PDF documents start displaying completely black, making it impossible to read the text. Sometimes images appear as ghosted white outlines, but most commonly the whole document is simply a black blob. I can open the same file using a free PDF Reader, but the moment I try opening it in Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro it appears in black again. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling version 9.2, and have now updated to 9.5, but am still getting the same error.
I have no idea of where else to look to find a solution. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Jurgen

This sounds sort of like a display problem. Are the preferences that you have set under Edit > Preferences > Page Display category in the Rendering area any different in Reader than they are in Acrobat Pro? Also in the same Preference category make sure you have Use Overprint Preview set to Never.
Also you can try checking under the Edit > Preferences > Accessibility category to make sure some of these setting haven't been inadvertently set.

I want to highlight various words in a pages document with a yellow or black box behind the text

I want to use a highlighter in Pages. I know how to do it in steps.. but would like a shortcut to highlight various words throughout the document with a yellow or black box behind the text.. help

I got another idea. Create a style with the text and background colour you want. You can apply a short cut for that style. Beware that the styles is only for that particular document but you can import styles or you can use Save as Template and keep it as a template.

Editing document text in Acrobat 10.1.9 - Black boxes!

Someting when i "Edit Document Text" in a PDF in 10.1.9 black boxes will appear all over the document. Sometimes they show up and sometimes they don't. Any idea what would be causing the black boxes and how to shut it off?
Thanks!

Hi kasey102,
Possibly the fonts used in the pdf do not exist on your system.
Is the behaviour true for any pdfs?
