Document windows in taskbar

Version 8 allowed you to open multiple documents but only show one instance
of Acrobat on the taskbar, rather than showing each document as a separate
instance (though it wasn't enabled by default, you had to choose the
option). Did they remove this option in version 9? I can't find the control
for it.

> Did they remove this option in version 9?
Yes.

How do I get more space in a "Documents" window?

I wonder if someone can help me with this. I recently upgraded from 10.3.9 to 10.4.9. When I open, for example, the "Documents" window and find the page is full with folders/files I place the arrow cursor in the bottom right hand corner and move the window up. I then pull the scroll bar down, place the arrow cursor in the bottom right hand corner and pull the window down. Under 10.3.9 the folders/files would stay where they were and I would get more free space. Under 10.4.9 it doesn't do that; pulling the window down means pulling everything else down as well. So the window remains full with folder/files all the time. Is there a way of changing it as it was under 10.3.9?

Open the window, hit the end key, and expand the window, via the lower right-hand corner triangle. Works here and always has in Tiger. If that doesn't work on your machine, then I suspect a corrupt preference file. Create a new admin user account, log into, and see if the problem exists there. If not, then it's one of the preference files listed in the new account's /Library/Preferences/ folder that's screwy. Make a list of them, log back into the old account, move the same one's, one at a time, to the Desktop, OPTION-click the Dock's Finder icon, and select Relaunch. Do that until you isolate the one's that are causing the problem. Start with the com.apple.finder.plist.

OpenGL enabled document Windows error message? Please help

Hi
When I am trying to use the rotate tools inside photoshop, I get a the NO sign with an error message: "Could Not Complete Your request Because It Only Works with OpenGL Enabled Document Windows". I don't understand why this is happening. I have an OPenGL Graphic card. Qudro K600 and every thing seems okay under the Performance section in the Preferences menu? I would appreciate any help? Thank you.

I thank you for your respond. Like I mentioned everything seems okay under the Performance section. Photoshop is recognising my Quadro K600 graphic card and all options are checked, and I am getting the above error message. It's annoying as I can't use the Rotate tool inside Photoshop or on my Wacom tablet. I also uninstalled my Graphic card driver and installed the latest driver. I hope someone can resolve this problem for me? Thank you.

How to center selected text in document window?

I'm using Word.select( SelectionOptions.REPLACE_WITH) to iterate through a list of words in a document. It would be handy if any off-screen selections could be automatically scrolled into the document window, as with Find/Change. Is there any way to script this?
Thanks in advance --
Steve

Curiously enough, there doesn't seem to be one specific function for that (which may explain the erratic way InDesign sometimes does this). I can't remember off-hand where I saw this trick, but the following works a treat:
app.layoutWindows[0].zoomPercentage = app.layoutWindows[0].zoomPercentage;
-- right after your select line.

Text in Document Window DW MX

I have text that is styled using an external CSS file. The
display attribute is set to 'none' for this particular text yet it
is still being displayed in the document window causing problems
when authoring content. Any suggestions or settings I've
overlooked??

Let's see the HTML and the CSS, please.

Why is my document window blank after opening a file in Photoshop CS5?

can someone please help me?
<< unnecessarily childish example of a blank document window removed >>

I don't find your cartoonish expletive language amusing, but I'll help you with your problem.
You need to visit the web page of the maker of your video card and download/install the latest display driver for your hardware / OS.
If you're unwilling or unable to do this, you can deconfigure OpenGL Drawing temporarily in your Edit - Preferences - Performance dialog (remembering to restart Photoshop after). These are the features you'll lose without OpenGL: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405745.html

Drawing directly in the document window

Can anybody provide sample code showing the basics of drawing directly in the document window? I'm thinking of something along the lines of the measure tool (pardon the pun).
It looks like I'm supposed to use either the Annotator Suite or the Document View Suite to "invalidate" a rectangle in the document, followed by doing the actual drawing with the ADMDrawer Suite. But the documentation in this area is pretty sparse (for example GetDocumentViewInvalidRect and SetDocumentViewInvalidRect refer to a "fudged" invalid rect without explaining what that is) and I don't see anything in the Sample Code folder that explains this feature.
Are the little text annotations ("path" "anchor") that pop up when using Smart Guides done using this method?
Thanks,
John

(Sound of crickets chirping...)
Boy, this forum is awfully dead in comparison to the InDesign SDK forum. Is no one writing Illustrator plug-ins anymore?
But hey, I'll keep posting, if only for my own amusement, about my saga of writing a plug-in.
I figured out some of the annotation stuff, but I'm still puzzled by some things.
I started by simply trying to create a tool which would carry a 100x100 box around with it when moved on the screen -- no clicking or dragging yet -- much as the symbol sprayer, for example, has a nice circle (albeit of varying size) around it. I created the tool and added it as an annotator. When it receives a kSelectorAITrackToolCursor message, it simply captures the cursor location in a global and sets the PlatformCursor. When the tool receives a kCallerAIAnnotation message, I have this code:
extern AIErr toolAnnotate( AIAnnotatorMessage *message ) {
    AIErr error = kNoErr;
    error = sView->ArtworkPointToViewPoint( message->view, &g->cursorPoint, &g->cursorPointScreen );
    g->annoBoundsScreen.top = g->cursorPointScreen.v - 50;
    g->annoBoundsScreen.bottom = g->cursorPointScreen.v + 50;
    g->annoBoundsScreen.left = g->cursorPointScreen.h - 50;
    g->annoBoundsScreen.right = g->cursorPointScreen.h + 50;
    ADMDrawerRef dr = sADMDrawer->Create(message->port, &g->annoBoundsScreen, kADMPaletteFont);
    ASRect myRect;
    myRect.top = 0;
    myRect.bottom = 100;
    myRect.left = 0;
    myRect.right = 100;
    sADMDrawer->SetDrawMode( dr, kADMXORMode );
    sADMDrawer->SetADMColor( dr, kADMBlackColor );
    sADMDrawer->DrawRect( dr, &myRect );
    sADMDrawer->Destroy( dr );
    sAnnotator->InvalAnnotationRect ( message->view, &g->annoBoundsScreen );
This (should) convert the cursor location (in artwork coordinates) to screen coordinates, set the annotation boundaries based on this location, create the drawer reference, and draw the 100x100 rectangle within this reference. Finally, it invalidates this rectangle as per the Annotation suite documentation.
I fired up the tool in Illy 10 and saw a single box created down at the 0, 0 point on the page. No box followed the cursor. Hmm. I added an sADMBasic->Beep() to the annotation code and realized what was happening -- my tool was getting an annotation message when first selected, but none when it was merely moved around the screen.
After some futzing around I discovered that if I added a call to sView->SetDocumentViewInvalidDocumentRect in the TrackToolCursor code, I got an annotate message every time the mouse was moved! I captured the previous cursor position and invalidated the rectangle 50 points on all sides from it. and tried again. Success -- partially.
At this point, the cursor could be moved around with the box following it. It suffers, however, from the following bugs:
1) The SetDocumentViewInvalidDocumentRect is in artwork coordinates and so only works at 100% or greater. If I zoom out, my little box leaves trails all over the screen. In addition, if I zoom in, the cursor stutters noticeably -- I assume because Illustrator is forcing a redraw on large portions of the document. I think I can fix both these bugs by recalculating the SetDocumentViewInvalidDocumentRect into screen coordinates. However I note that the circle of the symbol sprayer can be made huge -- as large as the screen -- and it still moves smoothly. So maybe calling sView->SetDocumentViewInvalidDocumentRect is not the way to force annotations. But I haven't been able to discover another way.
2) When the mouse moves into a palette, the square remains "hung up" at the last position where the cursor was in the document window. I think I can fix this by utilizing the Suspend and Resume notifiers and doing one last InvalAnnotationRect when I get the Suspend notification.
3) For fun I tried clicking and dragging. Bad news. If I do this, thereafter the entire Illustrator window only redraws iself in the small rectangle that was set when I created the drawer port. By chance I found that if I use another tool that annotates such as the pencil *before* I use my tool, then everything is fine (although of course the box doesn't follow the cursor around anymore because my toolMouseDrag code is empty). How is using a previous tool "fixing" my code? I don't understand this one at all.
Anyway, I suppose I could fork over a wad of cash and join the ADN and purchase a support case -- but hey, I'm just a hobbyist messing around at this point and facing some rather crappy documentation. Any tips will be much appreciated.

1.         I have a security app on my computer, Flashbrief. I have it checked in the hide column but whenever I turn on the computerit appears in the top menu line.
I've never heard of this software, and cannot find any reference to it online, which is a bit concerning. What is it supposed to do? There really isn't much need for security software on a Mac.
2.         Whenever Iturn on the computer, a new blank document window in MS Word 2011 appears. I do not have this listed in the login items.
In Mac OS X 10.7, any applications left open when you shut down or restart are re-opened at startup, and any documents left open in an app when you quit are re-opened when you launch them again. The former can be controlled by unchecking the box in the restart/shutdown alert:
You will need to do this each time you shut down or restart, it won't remember that setting.
The latter can be deactivated by unchecking the box in System Preferences -> General:
3.         I have a current model of Apple wireless mouse. It keeps getting stuck in text or e-mails and I have to somehowotherwise move the cursor to break it free.
That does not sound normal, but I don't use a mouse with my MBP, so I can't provide a solution, other than to try replacing the batteries in the mouse.

Document Window display is goofy

Dreamweaver 8, Mac OS X 10.4.8 Yesterday my web pages looked
great in Dreamweaver and in several browsers. This morning I opened
up Dreamweaver and viewed my pages and the graphics were jumbled
all around and the table outline guide is no where to been seen.
The text is also not visible. When I preview the pages in a
browser, they look fine! How can I get the display in the Document
Window to look normal again? Thank You for any ideas, help or
suggestions!

Thanks for that. I have learn't a bit more about the OS, but I still cannot get the help or safari displaying correctly, yet firefox does it fine.
For your info, I had none of the items that site said to delete from the help preferences, except for the itunes helpstart file.
Any other suggestions. I don't want to do a re install if I don't have to - I lost enough data last time.

Shortcut for activating editor when one selects something in document window?

Hello to the people who know Dreamw. a bit better then me....
I just try to find a trick that maybe anyone knows out here?
When you select some text in the document window, you see the
cursor at that place in the code-editor. Is there a shorthand to
activate the editor at that point? Now i have to click in the
editor if i decide to work directly in the code. It could be
usefull: searching and locating in the document window and then
with a shortcut continuing to write in the editor.
Thanks for any help

I just click on the 'thumb' in the scrollbar for code
view....

Play QT mov in document window

Please, can somebody tell me how to play a .mov in the
Dreamweaver8 document window. Working on MacOSX, Quicktime
installed. DW keeps saying 'The plugin failed to initialize'.
Preview however works well in Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer
for Mac

However, the plug-in cannot be installed as it was intended for an earlier version of the software I am running.
You have three basic options:
1) You can manually trasfer the component from a previous installation on another system,
2) You can try the Squared-5 lion installer utility that comes in the MPEG Streamclip v1.9.3b7 beta download to install the component in the incompatible installer package, or
3) You can use Pacifist to install/extract and manually install the QT MPEG-2 Playback component in the incompatible Apple installer package.

Microsoft Word templates move and hide document window

Often when I open Word for Mac, the toolbars have moved to strange locations on my screen and will cover the document window's top portion so that I cannot even move it. Is there no way to force Word to memorize the locations where they were last left?
Anybody else have this issue?

You must be speaking of Office 2004 for Mac. Floating menus is one reason I never liked office 2004 for Mac or for that matter any software employing this technique.
You can dock some of the toolbars to the main toolbar on Office 2004/2008 however not all can be docked. You are right, they get annoying and especially need to be moved from time to time to get to the window behind them. I don't know of any way to set a permanent location for the toolbars.

How can I get the windowRef of the active document window?

Hello,
Hou could I get the ADMWindowRef of the active Document window in Illustrator CS4- CS5? I can not use ADMWindowSuite1 because is On Mac OS only.
Thank you very much to Everybody.

There's no API for this, not if you want to make use of it in a useful way. You have to write Windows API code to do it. I reccommend using Spy++ to suss out the structure. Frankly, it's pretty annoying. It'd be extremely helpful if the API provided this, but it doesn't.

How can one resize a inDesign Document Window without moving Document's position?

I've searched high and low for an answer to this habit that inDesign has. Am I the only one that finds this annoying?
You go to adjust the size of your document window to move it out of the way to get to something else on your desktop, and instead of keeping the document in place and just resizing the window, it moves the document with the resize. Not sure if I'm putting this in a way that people can understand me. Say I have two inDesign files open side by side and I zoom in on an area and adjust my view of the page. Then I go to the other inDesign document and adjust the view by grabbing the bottom right hand corner of the window and moving it to where I want it. The whole document then moves with it! I desire it not to, so now I have to waste time by using the hand tool to move it back into place. Illustrator doesn't act like this. Photoshop doesn't act like this. Only inDesign. Does this harken back to the PageMaker days? Am I missing a preference somewhere I need to change? Or is it just the way of things and I'm stuck with it?

Hi,
The simplest would be to set the application preferences in the script.
Like this :
-- *** set prefs ****
tell application "AppleWorks 6"
      activate
      set oldPrefs to its preferences
      copy oldPrefs to tPrefs
      tell tPrefs
            set old version warning to false --doesn't show the old version warning alert
            set converted file suffix to true -- append “[v6.0]” to documents converted from older formats
            set locked file warning to false
            set paint reduction warning to false
      end tell
      set preferences to tPrefs
end tell
-- *** end set prefs ****
--**** your script, example ***
set tfiles to choose file with multiple selections allowed
tell application "AppleWorks 6"
      repeat with i in tfiles
            open i
            tell front document
                  -- do something
            end tell
      end repeat
end tell
--**** end your script ***
-- *** reset prefs ****
tell application "AppleWorks 6" to set preferences to oldPrefs
