Edge poster image no longer visible in design mode

Just updated to Muse 2014.3
In design mode the preview of Edge Animations has been replaced with the "Eg" icon.
The animations works just fine but it is more difficult to place them properly without a preview image.
I checked the Edge Animation file to make sure that the poster image was selected.

Yes, it came down to something corrupted with OS X as suddenly I started getting the long grey progress bar every time I booted OS X (no problems when booting Windows 7 on the Boot Camp partition).
Disk Utility could not repair it and for some reason I couldn't boot off a USB drive that I had setup as a recovery drive, so I couldn't repair it via Disk Warrior nor TechTool (I misplaced the boot DVDs over the years of moving).
Since this was my laptop that I only use when I'm on the road, all my important information was synced to my desktop Mac so I just started over and reformatted the entire hard drive and reinstalled everything (it gave me the opportunity to try out 10.7 preview release on a clean install as well as I wanted to upgrade from 32-bit to 64-bit Windows 7 anyways) and now everything works fine, including Target Disk mode.

External/Remote Images no longer appear in Design View!

Hi,
First post here.
Suddenly external/remote images in Dreamweaver CS3 no longer appear when viewed in Design View.
All I get now is grey boxes!
I have tried toggling 'Display External Files' on and off, made sure Cache is off (tried it with on too) and nothing seems to make a difference.
If anyone could help please, it's so annoying
Thanks,
James

Windows XP.
I'm an experienced web designer, 10+ years so you will have to trust me my code is fine.
It just shows the grey boxes in place of where the images should be.

Images No Longer Showing in Design View but Work Online

Here is the live site that works - http://www.drinkupsandiego.com
Everything works in the live site and it has been up and running for a couple of years. I went to modify the site today in DW CC and none of the images showed up. I noticed that the site was not defined so I did this by adding a new site and defining the root folder. Still no images. So I look at the assets on the right side of DW and it shows that the image folder is now called "images.jpg" instead of the correct "images" name. If I go into my documents the folder "images.jpg" does not exist. I then clicked on one of the broken images and selected the correct folder. The image showed up but when I look at the code it is now "<img src="images.jpg/.....>". Again, that folder does not exist in my documents. I went back to the site definition and clicked on advanced and identified the folder for images as "images" but when I click on it it comes back as "images.jpg" I am baffled - I know this has to be some sort of silly fix so thank you in advance for anyone who can help.

Odd, I just moved all the files in the assets section from "images.jpg" to "images" and it all works. But I am still baffled why DW created a separate folder.

Custom button skin with scaleGrid 9 slice image does not appear in Design Mode

So in a custom button skin I have a nine sliced image, and then throw that onto an MXML page. In design view, I cannot get the component to show the image that I've thrown on it. Unless I do a hack on the MXML page by adding the image in it's scaleGrid form to the page somewhere. Then it seems to act as like a preloader for the image so it actually displays. But I don't want to do this hack on every page that uses this component. Is there a work around?
Here's the button skin:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<s:Skin xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                    xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
                    width.disabled="296" height.disabled="73">

<fx:Metadata>
                    [HostComponent("spark.components.Button")]
                    [Embed('assets/art/shared/[email protected]', scaleGridTop=20, scaleGridBottom=85, scaleGridLeft=40, scaleGridRight=60)]
</fx:Metadata>

<s:states>
                    <s:State name="disabled" />
                    <s:State name="down" />
                    <s:State name="over" />
                    <s:State name="up" />
</s:states>
          <s:Group width="100%" height="100%" >
<s:Image width="100%" height="100%" smooth="true" source="@Embed('assets/art/shared/[email protected]', scaleGridTop=20, scaleGridBottom=85, scaleGridLeft=40, scaleGridRight=60)"/>
</s:Group>

          <s:Label id="labelDisplay" left="10" right="10" top="2" bottom="2" horizontalCenter="0"
                               maxDisplayedLines="1" textAlign="center" verticalAlign="middle" verticalCenter="1"
                               color="#FFFFFF" >
<s:filters>
                              <s:DropShadowFilter distance="0" angle="90" color="0x000000" alpha="1" blurX="2" blurY="2" strength="16" quality="3" />
</s:filters>
</s:Label>
</s:Skin>
And then I throw that button into an MXML page. The image doesn't show up in design view.
<s:Button x="330" y="94" width="134" height="57" label="Button" skinClass="features.shared.NineSliceButtonSkin" />
This hack, fixes the button! And all other buttons that use that skin.
<s:Image width="100%" height="100%" smooth="true" source="@Embed('assets/art/shared/[email protected]', scaleGridTop=20, scaleGridBottom=85, scaleGridLeft=40, scaleGridRight=60)"/>
<s:Button x="330" y="94" width="134" height="57" label="Button" skinClass="features.shared.NineSliceButtonSkin" />

Looking for an answer too!

Flash IDE Components in Flex 3 Design Mode. Can they be visible there?

Hi,
Im exploring Flex to get a grasp on its concepts and am currently looking into building components in the Flash IDE. Though i guess its likely that when you're more familiar with Flex you build your components in Flex, like said Im exploring its concepts and like to know where and how the Flash IDE fits in its workflow.
I made a simple Flex Component in the Flex IDE, which shows up fine when I run the Flex project. But it does not show in Flex Design Mode.
I have exported the component from Flash as an SWC and added the SWC to the Flex library path. The symbol in the Flash IDE extends UIMovieClip. Now I read in 'Using Adobe FlexBuilder 3' (p.67) that the Flex Components panel only lists visible components, according to the documentation 'components that extend UIComponent'.
Note that my question is about being visible on the stage in Design Mode, not in the component panel. As UIMovieClip doesnt inherit from UIComponent (and the UIComponent class doesnt seem to be available in the Flash IDE), is this also the cause that the Flash IDE component is not visible on the Flex stage in Design Mode?
Can someone confirm, or deny this?
Regards,
Marcel

Hi Latha,
thanks for your feedback. Reading it back though, Im still not sure whether Flex components build in the Flash IDE (using the Flex Component Kit for Flash CS3) can be visible in Flex 3 Design Mode.Maybe you can be a bit more specific and save a lot of Flex beginners a lot of headaches.
I understand that MXML components can be used in Design Mode. I also understand that if your component is AS you have to create a Library and link that to your project to make them visible in Design Mode. I also understand that Flash Builder 4 does "support rendering of UIMovieClip objects which are in library (swc) and added to the project build path"
This actually doesnt answer my question really. Does this mean there is no way to render Flex components build in the Flash IDE (using the Flex Component Kit for Flash CS3) in Flex 3 Design Mode?
Regards,
Marcel

Design mode locale problems with 4.5.1

I tried this in the Flex forum but no answers. I'll try here. I've been working on a project for a year that has worked fine. I upgraded to 4.5.1 and now can no longer edit several of my components that were localized. I solely get a red X and a design error that says "Assets failed to compile. Design Mode is unable to display the document styles, skins, and images because the following assets have failed to compile:Details :unable to open 'locale/en_US'(command line - Line:-1)"
I've a folder with locale/en_US and it actually localizes fine if I run the app, but I can not longer edit in design mode which, as you might guess, really puts a damper on moving objects by pixels.
Any suggestions?

I don't have a solution, but i think i pinned the circumstance down to being generated when:
You have a localised project
You also embed a generic (non-localised) asset
In the case I used to file a bug report, including/removing an <s:Image> tag causes/removes the problem:
https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-32609
Note: In my builder I had an additional issue making it difficult to pin down - in that once the Design Mode Problem had been raised, even reverting the line of code that caused it didn't clear the problem report - took a couple of odd steps:

Edge not updating poster image

Hello,
I've updated a few assets in my Edge animation and refreshed the file in Muse. The poster image is now out of date and showing the wrong colours in Muse. If I delete the poster image in finder (I'm on a Mac), Edge throws up an error and won't publish the file.
Any ideas how to get Edge to update the poster image itself?
Thanks!

Ah ha!! Thanks

How do I delete a Poster image?

Hi all,
I created a simple animation to be used with InDesign DPS. I added a poster image, but when viewing the animation in Adobe Content Viewer the poster image covers the animation unless I click on it, at which point it reveals the animation already "in progress".
Is there a way to delete the poster image once it has been set?
Technical:
Edge Animate v1.5
Mac OS 10.8
Adobe Content Viewer v25
InDesign CS6, 8.0.1

The only way to delete a poster image once it has been created is to go into your project folder and physically delete it outside of Edge Animate.
Another thing to do is to open the actual poster png delete the content to leave it a blank transparent png. I often find I dont want the poster image visible first espaecially if you have a self playing animation.
cheers

Poster image not centering in browser

My poster image (for viewing in IE8) is not centering in the browser window. It's displaying as left aligned with a big gap to the right of the image. How do I fix?

Thank you Hemanth, that is exactly what I am referring to. One final question though, as I am by no means an HTML guru...do I add the snippet while I'm in Edge or do I open the HTML file in Dreamweaver and add the code there?
If in Edge, where do I access the code to add it (and where does it go)?
If in Dreamweaver...here is the code for my file, where would I place the snippet?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
          <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
          <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=Edge"/>
          <title>Untitled</title>

    <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="FEA2014_Invite_edgePreload.js"></script>
    <style>
        .edgeLoad-EDGE-450331542 { visibility:hidden; }
    body {
          background-color: #000000;
    </style>

</head>
<body style="margin:0;padding:0;">
          <div id="Stage" class="EDGE-450331542">
          </div>
</body>
</html>
I GREATLY appreciate this advice!
Many thanks,

After installing Mountain Lion on my 17" MBP G-RAID mini connected via Tempo SATA Edge ExpressCard34 is no longer recognized. I restored icon and access by removing 34 card and substituting FW800 for eSATA. Any fix for the higher speed connection? TIA

Looks like the Silicon Image drivers were moved to the incompatible software folder during install/upgrade.
Downloaded latest drivers, errored out of install claiming that the drivers were from an unknown author!!!
Emailed their tech support this evening describing problem.

DW8: image won't display in Design View

Folks:
DW8 on MacOS 10.4.8 (fully updated) on Intel iMac.
What would keep an image from displaying in DW Design View?
What are the causes of the grey box with the superimposed "X"? Is
there any diagnostic output that might help? Is the grey box and
"X" substituted by DW8 for an invalid or un-drawable graphic, or is
this done by the OS?
The problem:
I've got a 1912 x 1481 graphic, a geographic map, in AI that
I'm trying to use as an ordinary web image, but DW won't display it
in Design View. Instead all I see is a big grey box and "X". For
test purposes, I'm starting from a new "Basic" HTML web page and
all I'm doing is inserting this one image. I need to get this
working so I can draw hotspots on this graphic to make it
"clickable" .
Here's what I've tried:
o Triple-checking that the inserted image reference is
correct. Yes, the image file is correctly linked. With the image
selected, the inspector shows a tiny but recognizable miniature of
the expected image. Further, when the page and the image are
uploaded to the web server and I look at it via a browser, the
expected image is _always correctly displayed.
o Exporting the graphic "for the web" from AI as both a GIF
and a medium-quality JPG. Neither of these are displayed in Design
View; both are served up correctly after being uploaded
o I found a larger JPG on a different site I'm managing. This
always displays as expected in both DW Design View and when served
up. I substituted the failing map JPG image. The result: A grey
box.
o Checking the map images: The JPG and GIF versions seem to
be visible in all environments (image readers, browsers, etc.) I've
checked _except_ DW8 Design View.
o Checked on another system. I made the failing image
available to a very helpful ACE, who performed a similar
experiment. It worked fine for him. I used his exact HTML and
directory structure -- and it failed for me. Grey box with "X".
It seems to me that I've checked most of the obvious
possibilities. Now it is time to check the less obvious ones.
Suggestions are very welcome!
Thanks,
Henry

Randy:
Thanks for your response.
This is a virtual memory system, so -- in theory-- it should
accommodate anything that will fit on the hard drive, more or less,
if I'm wiling to wait the hours (days?) it will take to swap on and
off the disk. That assumes DW8 takes advantage of the capability.
It may not.
"Larger"? The JPG image I compared to is 1692 x 2160 pixels,
but weighs slightly less, 289K bytes. I'm losing track of all my
test images that fail, but a representative one is 1912 x 1481
pixels and weighs 332Kb on the disk. "Roughly comparable" might be
a better description. The point is still reasonable: DW8 does
handle images of this size on my system.
One issue that occurred to me recently is that I may have
caused some grief by monkeying with the "Save for web" settings at
the Illy export. Perhaps I asked for some configuration that's
normal for Illy to export --or it would have warned me, I hope--
but too strange for DW to grok. DW should complain more
informatively than painting a gray box and "X" when that happens, I
would think.

Video files show very low resolution poster image

Using Indesign CC and the latest tools and content viewer I am creating Autoplay video animations for the cover of our weekly magazine.
With each issue I have published the same problem occurs where the poster image for the video file is very low resolution and makes our content look very amateur (for a brief moment) before playing the video file at full resolution.
I have tried creating animations using flash, photoshop and Edge Animate, exporting MP4, MOV and OAM files. The problem is present with all movie files and with the Edge animation files a white flash appears before the file plays.
Is there a solution for either of these issues? We are looking to continue to use animations for our covers and need them to look 100% crisp and clean.

Sorry to jump in but I'm having the same issue too!
I have an H.264 mp4 which I created in After Effects and inserted using the Media panel within DPS.
As you see below, it plays on page load and I have chosen the finished front cover to be the poster image when it ends from within the Folio Overlays panel. I have set the video to stop on the last page.
When the video stops you can see all the artifacting around the text which I would expect to be as crisp as the original PSD file I uploaded as the poster image.
Is there anything I'm doing wrong or is there anything that can improve the quality of the final still?

Need to remove scrollbars that appear around downlevel poster image in IE

I have a responsive animation, so I have not played around with height and width dimensions. Both are set to 100%/auto. Overflow hidden or visible doesn't make a difference. Perhaps a '"scrollbars="no"' declaration somewhere, just don't know exactly where (not a javascript programmer)? I need to resolve this issue! Help please, anyone? Animation plays fine in all browsers with no scrollbars. It's only the downlevel poster image that has this issue.

The artwork has no printable border.
What you are seeing is the artboard bounds. You can prove it to yourself by printing the document (print to PDF if you don't want to waste paper) or by changing the artboard size via File | Document Setup.
The artwork does happen to have a rectangle that exactly coincides with the artboard size. It provides the taupish background. If you select it and look at the appearance palette, you'll see it has a fill but no stroke.

Some images are not visible

Hi,
I have a recordset which has 79 records with images. Report not showing last 9 images (sometime 10 images). Even I changed to display records in descending order then last 10 are visible as these images are at start, now i am unable to see
again last 9 images, which were visible when these were at start.

Hi Mahendra,
According to your description that you always go the last ten record not display in the report, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can't reproduce the issue, please try to answer and check the information according to the question below to help us better analysis about the issue:
Please Execute the query in the query designer to see if you can get all the 79 records.
How many columns in the reports? Did the field of the image comes from Database - select a row that contains the image from a database table?
So, you got the entire 10 rows with multiple columns not shown in the report,right?
As
yosedesh mentioned that please make sure you have checked all the pages and you can also export the report to HTML or MHTML to see if you can see all the record display.
I recommend you to recreate the tablix or redesign an new report the same as this to see if you still have the same issue.
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.
