Dotted Underline appears in text?

When I try to change the text color, a dotted line appears beneath my text and it renders when I export to a pdf.  There are no settings activated for underline and I can't seem to be able to find anything online.?

It would have to be a Stroke setting of Type:Dotted, no? (Window--Stroke, F10), not an underline.  Don't underlines always result in a non-dotted solid line underneath the text?
Or, I suppose it could be a Character Style (Shift F11) with the Strikethrough suboption of Type:Dotted and possibly an Offset as well (?).
I guess you'd have to select it first then check both the Character Styles and Paragraph Styles panels to see if any style gets chosen (turns blue) as you do the selecting.
Keep the Stroke (F10) panel  open as well to see if anything "lights up" when you select the text with the dotted line.
Then check the Character Panel (Shift-F11) menu (top right of panel): Strikethrough Options to see if a dotted strikethrough has been set.
Or, it could be a Paragraph Style (F11) with either of the above embedded in it.

  • Dotted underline

    Hi again guys
    I know this is an easy one for the CSS gurus. I am trying to
    give the links here (in the navigation)...
    http://www.irerica.com/efortresses/
    ... a dotted underline, (when in Hover) using border rather
    than underline so that I can have the appearance of a dotted
    underline rather than solid. i have done this when experimenting,
    but now that i am building, it isn't working...Not in IE 7 anyway,
    it is in FF.
    I am sure this is some IE/CSS thing I am not yet aware of.
    Can anyone shed any light on how I need to get it right?
    Thanks
    Andy

    how do I makes this go away - your help is much appreciated
    Thanks

    As Ned said, you can remove the outline with CSS but it's a web accessibility feature. If you click somewhere else on the page the outline will go away.
    The Active Link's Focus state had a dotted border or outline to show people where they are on the page.  This is especially useful for people who must use their keyboard tab key to work through links.  As you know, many devices don't support a mouse and some people just can't use them.
    So remove the outline if you think you should but be ever mindful of any web accessibility features you disable.  Some people might need them.

  • Why are there little blue dots that appear next to my movies?

    There are little blue dots that appear next to the movies that i have started to download.  Also i just started to download a movie, and i am not sure if it is even downloading.  Please Help!

    The blue dot just means its new (meaning you havent watched it yet).  You should see the same blue dots next to Text Messages and Emails that you have not read.
    You can check your current downloads in the iTunes Store App > Tap more in the bottom right > Tap Downloads.

  • Is dotted underlining available in RH7?

    I use a lot of drop down text in my system and I need a way
    of distinguishing it from jump links. I don't like to use colour
    alone and am wondering about dotted underlining but it doesn't seem
    to be available in the formatting section of RH7. Is this
    right?

    Hi there Authorgirl
    RoboHelp does not provide this option. So you will need to
    put your creative approach hat on. See if the link below helps with
    this.

  • Buttons just appearing as text for certain clients until enabled with onClick and enabled

    Would anyone know why buttons may disappear for some clients but not others.   I'm not finding a consistent pattern.  When I sign in locally or through vpn they display and behave properly, but when I sign in externally via Chrome or IE 11
    sometime the buttons only appear as text other disable buttons that are enabled on click.  I have a laptop with ie11 Win8 and desktop with ie11 win7.   The laptop displays the buttons proper behavior and the desktop does not.  
    anyone have any ideas.  Someone was working on the server recently and I'm wondering if any IIS setting may cause this problem.  Thanks for help!
    Buttons original state:
    <td><asp:Buttonrunat="server"Text="Print"ID="btnPrint"CssClass="tablerowheader"Enabled="False"/>
    <asp:Buttonrunat="server"Text="Submit"ID="btnSubmit"OnClick="btnSubmit_Click"
    CssClass="tablerowheader"Enabled="False"/></td>
    Buttons action:
    <asp:checkbox runat="server" id="chkSignature" onclick="EnableSubmitButton(this)" text="I Agree" Font-Bold+"true" checked="False">

    Solved.  The disabled status was being overwritten as null.

  • I find dotted circles in my text.  I don't know how they got there or what they're for.

    I find dotted circles in my text.  I don't know how they got there or what they're for.  These dotted "o" characters print out, too.

    Thanks for taking the time to suggest the screen shot.  Actually, I neglected to say that I was working in a Thai font and, after posting my question, it dawned on me that I should check the keyboard template again.  Well, in Thai, vowel and accent symbols show on the template with the dotted zeroes below as place setters, They don't show IF one doesn't make a typing error, which is what I did.  Sorry for the false alarm, and thanks, again.

  • Mountain Lion - Window for ID and Pw appear without text!

    After install Mountain Lion, (Leopard to Mountain Lion with succes!) the window for ID and Pw (that appear for all permission, to install a new program or other) appear without text! Button to say ok or return are without text so I can't see nothing! And I can't insert my ID or my password!
    What appened?????
    Sorry for my english..
    Thanks, Sara

    Please read this whole message before doing anything. This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it. Step 1 The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.” While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin. Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)? After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it. *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing. Step 2 The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows: 
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
     Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode. Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • How can I get dotted underline inAdobe XML?

    Hi, I try to use dotted underlines in XFDF, but I don't know how. I tried to used all possible ways, but without succes. Could anyone help me??Please.....

    However, if I need to include "skos:narrower" elements then what I need to do? Do I need to write PL/SQL code for that and separately get this data ? or I can get repeating elements in the SQL query?I knew you were going to ask this, that's why I anticipated in my previous reply :
    However, if you want to extract repeating nodes such as <skos:narrower>, you have to decide how you want the output to look like (nested collection etc.).So, how do you want to store repeating elements?
    For example, you can use a collection type :
    create type narrower_t is object ( res varchar2(2000) );
    create type narrower_coll is table of narrower_t;
    select x.ID
         , x.NO
         , cast(
             multiset(
               select res
               from xmltable(
                      xmlnamespaces(
                        'http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#' as "rdf"
                      , 'http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#' as "skos"

                      passing x.narrowers
                      columns res varchar2(2000) path '@rdf:resource'
             as narrower_coll
           ) as narrowers
    from th_xml t

    Hi Guys!
    I'm German, so my english writing might not be perfect
    I had the same Issue on a 5 i bought. Exact same screen and writing. Battery was totally drawn, first thing I had to replace. The screen had been replaced and since then it wouldn't work anymore according to the previous owner.
    It took me a couple hours, after recieving a few errors like 4013 it just never completed the restore, got really hot as well. The Flexwire of the Dock Connector seemed damaged, replaced the dock, but that didn't help.
    I almost gave up, thought the Logic Board was bad.
    BUT! Then i deceided to check if it has anything to do with the Screen assembly, and it did.
    Long story short, on mine the front facing camera, and sensor assy were bad.
    Anyhow, the phone works ''perfect'' when i leave them unplugged. So I just ordered a new one and we will see if thats the problem or if the damage is in the Logic Board.
    If so, i can live without the sensor and front cam.
    Just wanted to share, good luck everyone.
