Feature Request: "Show Password" option in login s...

When I am connecting to wi-fi networks, the connection dlg box often gives me the option to show the characters of the wi-fi password, so that I can ensure that I'm putting the right chars in.  
Can I request this same option in the login screen for Skype, as it happens too often that I fumble-finger a character and only find out about it when I can't log in, and then I can only see dots in the password field, so I have to backspace over the whole password and tap it all in again.  Would be easirer if I could just fix the incorrect character.
Yes, I have turned on the "show temporarily the chars in the PW field as you type them" option in my device but that's not sufficient.

Hi Rose,
It's been there for a while:

    Feature Request: Add Skype option to user name field in contacts
    I know skype maintains it's own names but this is so you don't lose everrything when you move from one place to another. Or need to skype someone from an internet cafe with your iphone.

    Why not simply add the field by modifying the template?

  • FEATURE REQUEST: Enhanced Texture Options in FW

    Recently, a forum user was asking how to change the color of a texture in Fireworks to red or blue. In particular, he/she was struggling with attempting to apply a texture to a white object, and it wasn't showing up.
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1006694?tstart=0
    The question got me thinking about textures, how they're created and how they're applied. Textures are a unique and distinctive feature of Fireworks. On the one hand, the interface for textures is very simple to use and almost magical; on the other hand, it's surprisingly limited. The concept is great, but the implementation seems only half-baked.
    With this in mind, I'd like to suggest a few simple ways that textures could be made more fluid and versatile in Fireworks.
    First, a little background...
    WHAT IS A TEXTURE?
    In the world of Fireworks, a texture is basically a type of pattern that's applied to an object. However, unlike a pattern fill, textures include transparency and integrate with the existing fill content (color, gradient or pattern). They're suggestive of textures in the real world, which are often tactile and defined visually by light and shadow.
    Texture graphics are most commonly grayscale ("black and white") in GIF or PNG format. Applied within the application, the graphics are converted "on the fly" to white-on-transparency. If the Transparent option is checked, the graphic is converted into a sort of mask, making the "textured" areas invisible instead of white.
    And that's about it.
    So what if you'd like to apply a dark texture to a white object? Sorry, it can't be done. What if you'd like to apply a texture in color? It can't be done. What if you'd like to reverse or invert the pattern of the texture? Can't be done.
    Well, in fact, these things can be done, but not directly. They require workarounds such as cloning the object and placing the clone above or beneath the original, applying textures as pattern fills (instead of as textures) and adding effects like Color Fill, Invert, and Convert to Alpha, or editing the texture file directly, saving out a new copy, etc. In short, there are unintuitive ways to accomplish these goals that lead to bloated effects lists and layers or that require extra time and care.
    HOW CAN TEXTURES BE IMPROVED?
    First of all, does it make any sense that textures are applied exclusively in white? Not really. In the real world, a texture can be defined not just by light but by shadow. And even shadows can have color. This means that, at minimum, it would make sense to allow for the application of a texture in black, and, at maximum, in any chosen color.
    Secondly, textures are relative. They represent change to an existing surface. Sometimes, it might make sense to highlight the texture itself; other times, the surface around the texture. This means that being able to quickly reverse the figure-ground relationship of a texture would be a very handy feature.
    With the above concerns in mind, I've devised three 'user interface' scenarios, presented here in order of most conservative to most extreme. The first scenario is the least powerful but still doubles the number of possible outcomes (compared to the existing interface). The second scenario may be the most logical of the bunch and represents a modest evolution of the existing interface, while increasing the number of potential outcomes even further. The third scenario allows for the application of any color to a texture but also represents the biggest change to the existing interface; that said, it's also quite compact.
    Scenario 1: Invert option
    The idea here is simply to add an Invert checkbox to the existing options. Checking this option would convert white to black, allowing for the application of dark textures to white or light-colored objects. In "Transparent" mode, this option would invert or reverse the figure-ground relationship of the existing texture.
    Scenario 2: Dropdown menu plus Reverse option
    Here, the Transparent checkbox is replaced by a dropdown menu that includes 3 mutually exclusive options: White, Black, or Transparent. Checking the "Reverse" option would invert the figure-ground relationship of the texture. This scenario allows for 6 possible outcomes in place of the existing 2, and is actually more logical than the first scenario, which conflates two options.
    Scenario 3: Color picker plus Reverse option
    Here, the Transparent checkbox is removed, and in its place, a color chip/palette is added to allow for the selection of any color to be applied to a texture. (Choosing Fill: None would create Transparency.) Again, a "Reverse" option would invert the figure-ground relationship of the texture. This scenario differs most from the existing interface but is quite compact and allows for the greatest number of outcomes.
    SO WHAT CAN YOU DO?
    I've submitted a feature request to Adobe's official site:
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
    When it comes to bugs and/or feature requests, every vote counts. If you care about this issue, I encourage you to submit your own feature request to the above URL, referencing this post if desired. Feel free to copy and paste the feature request below or write your own. (Be aware that there is a 2,000 character limit to the "issue description" of a bug report or feature request, and the following report is very close to that maximum.)
    FEATURE REQUEST
    Product name: Fireworks
    Product Version: 12.0.0.236
    Product language: English
    *******Enhancement / FMR*********
    Brief title for your desired feature: Enhanced texture controls, including the ability to apply textures in black and/or color (instead of white), and the ability to reverse or invert texture.
    How would you like the feature to work? Three possible implementations have been outlined in this forum posting:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1042206?tstart=0
    The basic scenarios are as follows:
    SCENARIO 1: An additional "Invert" option. Checking this option would convert white to black, allowing for the application of dark textures to white or light-colored objects. In "Transparent" mode, this option would invert or reverse the figure-ground relationship of the existing texture. This scenario would allow for 4 options in place of the existing 2.
    SCENARIO 2: Replace Transparent checkbox with a dropdown menu (White-Black-Transparent) and a "Reverse" checkbox. The dropdown menu offers 3 mutually exclusive options, while "Reverse" inverts the figure-ground relationship of the texture in each case. This scenario would allow for 6 options in place of the existing 2.
    SCENARIO 3: Replace Transparent checkbox with a color chip/palette and a "Reverse" checkbox. The color palette would allow for the application of a texture in any color, while choosing Fill: None would create Transparency. This scenario would allow for the greatest number of options.
    Why is this feature important to you? Textures are unique to Fireworks and potentially very useful, but their implementation is incomplete. The use of 'white only' means that textures cannot be applied to a white object. Inverting a texture or applying a texture in color requires advanced workarounds and can lead to bloat. The suggested options would make the feature exponentially more powerful and intuitive.

    Thanks, Jim! It is a very blog-like post. (I still haven't gotten around to starting a blog but keep thinking I should.)
    I figured the clearer and more thought-out the presentation, the greater the likelihood it might get implemented. Also, I was originally stuck on Scenario 1 as a solution, and writing this helped me see other options.

  • Feature Request:  AE Collect Option in PPro Project Manager

    While PPro Project Manager collects linked AEP projects, it falls short of collecting assets embedded with the AEP project itself.  This results in the user having to re-open the AEP project, locate and copy the original embedded media to new location and relink.
    Another option is to open the original AEP Project, perform a collectioning within AEP, then having to manually import and replace the media on the timeline in the newly collected PPro.  Tedious considering the complexity of AEPs that can run several layers deep with many assets.
    Is this feature possible to add in the next round of updates?

    The feature request site appears to be down now, but you should go here when it's back up:

  • Feature Request: Better format options Please!

    I've been using Adobe Story recently and think it's a great, competitive product that definitely rivals other products!
    However, I do think there need to be a few more output options to increase compatibility with writers and producers who may not necessarily be using the latest software. In particular, .rtf and .fdr (Final Draft 7 or older) formats are not given as options to export and this would be very handy as I know plenty of writers who have not upgraded to Final Draft 8 and therefore cannot read the new .fdx extension on files.
    Adding these two little things shouldn't be at all difficult and would allow much greater flexibility for users of Adobe Story to share material out without the need of the other party having to reformat things on their end.
    Hopefully I'm not the only one looking for this feature update?

    Hi Deepak
    Thanks for your response. Don't take this the wrong way and please don't feel like I'm shooting the messenger here, but honestly speaking I think rtf *and* fdr format compatibility should be in your frontlog considering you are making a version 1 product that's trying to compete or at least compliment industry standard tools!
    Having only fdx compatibility is like Office 2007/2010 only having .docx with no backwards compatibility for legacy formats - it renders the tool useless in the eyes of many potential customers. It great to push new and more open formatting standards but there must, must, must be legacy support too - I mean you already support import of rtf and fdr so it's nuts that it doesn't go out that way too!
    I have found that having .txt and .pdf as a bridge for the older software tends to be an inefficient workaround. There are always occasional formatting errors that crop up due to the use of some type of special character that isn't translated properly in the conversion and therefore there is always a need to spend an additional 15-20 minutes re-checking entire scripts to make sure there are no problems before sharing the material to a colleague or client who either cannot afford to or hasn't bothered to upgrade to Final Draft 8 (or Adobe Story ).
    That's just my two cents but I'm sure that many people would agree with me that this small update should be a priority to make AS (sorry, I've gone an abbreviated another one of your products - doh!) a more appealing alternative to the tools people may have been used to in the past.
    Hope you take this pledge into serious consideration for your next upcoming update!
    Thanks,
    Kaush

  • Feature Request - show substitution string values in session state display

    Hi!
    I would like to request that in addition to page and application items and session state values that the value of substitution string values be shown. Another option would be to have a separate link (like session) to display them. This would allow developers to see all of the available substitution values and how they change across pages, etc.
    Thanks!

    Dave - What are some examples of values that you are not seeing in the session state report that would be useful?

  • Feature Request : Export (3rd Option)

    When I re-export from a catalogue I am working on, sometimes I am exporting images I have exported before.
    So . . . Lightroom asks me: Do you want to
    a. Overwrite exixting files or
    B. Create unique filenames.
    . . . which, BTW -in my humble opinion, is flawed anyway since the unique filenames do not appear in the file listing anywhere near their companion.
    Example: Img008 does not get a uniquely named copy like Img008-b, but instead gets something like copy-Img008 - which does not allow for quick side-by-side comparisons in an image browser.
    (SO: Unique filename option should be fixed!)
    But there should also be a third option: (the real reason I write)
    C. Ignore duplicates (Do not overwrite or create new file when there is already an existing file.) This will save my computer lots of processing time trying to re-export over existing files.
    Now for arguments sake, you could tell me just to not select the pre-existing exported files when I export, but in my particular case, that would involved nearly as much brain power as not doing it consumes computer time, since I have already exported selected non-sequential files for my first export, and I'll be damned if I can remember which ones they were until the export "expert" tells me which files are about to be duplicated.

    It keeps the password. Whatever issues you are having are the exception, not the rule. However, without any system info, nobody can really help. Start by reviewing these steps:
    Sign in or activation errors
    And since you are in a corporate environment, definitely talk to IT and have them release the necessary network ports and grant sufficient user privileges to make this stuff stick...

  • FEATURE REQUEST: 'Select Printer' option when printing envelopes or labels

    I have a Samsung laserjet printer that will not print labels properly with the default paper type setting...the toner smears. So I have created a second printer object for the Samsung device with 'Labels' selected as the default paper type and I've named
    it 'Samsung Labels'. I can select it as the printer in Word 2010 and it will print labels correctly for that session. I've read the discussion about Word 2010 only remembering the printer preferences during the current session. That is unfortunate, but I consider
    this to be even worse: when you click the 'Print' button after creating your label or envelope, Word just prints to the default printer without displaying the print control panel. This prevents me from selecting the printer object that I've created to print
    labels correctly with my Samsung. I use a number of different printers and I don't want to necessarily use my default printer for Word. I want to be able to select a different default printer for Word and also have the option to select a different printer
    for a particular print task in Word...like labels. I don't want to have to go into Word's print options every time I want to print a label and make sure that everything is set correctly. It makes no sense that I can't select a printer object when I hit the
    print button. There are a million 'features' built into Office that I would never think of using, but one that seems so obvious is missing. Arg!
    I doubt that I'll hear back from someone with a simple work around for this, but I'd love it if I did.
    Thanks in advance,
    Wayne
    Wayne S. CompTIA A+ CompTIA Network+ Microsoft MCP

    I would like to second Wayne's suggestion but I am concerned with printing envelopes, not labels. I have been a PC user (and even an instructor) since the days of VisiCalc, Lotus 1-2-3, and the first Microsoft products. It has never ceased to amaze me
    that, as mentioned by Wayne, the most fundamental needs are overlooked. It wastes a lot of my time to constantly have to change the printer just to print an envelope or to print something on letterhead. We have a lot of documents that include one letter on
    letterhead followed or preceded by several pages that need to print on plain paper. I think I should be able to tell Word that page X is letterhead, and the others default to the plain paper tray or printer. I also should be able to tell the print envelopes
    feature that envelopes are on printer X or tray X. Then every time I need to print such a document, I just click print for the doc and envelope print for the envelope (I keep an icon for this in my toolbar). We use a legal software package in our office that
    lets you specify the appropriate printer and tray for reports, general checks, trust checks, labels, receipts, deposit slips, bills and pre-bills! Super easy and convenient. Word processing should be SMART so we don't have to be bothered with these very mundane
    and never-ending printer issues!! Please, please, take this to the top! Please send your developers to actual real-world users and find out our needs!!!

  • Feature request: Showing Program change # in addition to Patch & Set names

    Right now, MS2 is pretty much designed to step forward and backward through patches and sets. Although you do assign program change numbers to each patch and you can set a text box on screen to display the program number once you have selected the patch, it would be nice if we could add a third column in the Set - Patch selection module that also shows the program change #. Having this information displayed on the screen would give you a quick reference of the number that needed to be chosen to jump directly to a patch instead of relying on stepping forward or backwards to get to the patch you want to play. Right now, when I am configuring a concert, I load in previously used sets that included patches that will be played for that song. If we had this information displayed on the screen, we wouldn't have to worry about changing all the program #'s for each patch, since we could just use the same program # we assigned to the patch when we first created it.
    In fact, taking this approach one step further, we could view all of our user patches along with their respective program change numbers just like you can on a hardware sampler or synth.
    I don't know if this is something that could actually be done using text boxes or such that are connected to the program change number, but if someone has a suggested I would be interested.
    thanks

    Having a way to quickly renumber the program changes for the patches would certainly be helpful. However, what I am interested in is a way to display the program change number right along side the patch name in the patch / set list combo box. I know there is a way to display the program change number by itself that displays the currently selected patch, but that doesn't help me either (other than to verify that I have selected the right patch).
    What I am trying to do is to avoid having to change the program change numbers each time I set up a concert. I would like to create a patch, assign a specific program change number to it, and save it as is. Then when I build my concert, using Set's as placeholders for each song, I can see what the program change # is needed to change to a specific patch. This also means that I can assign that specific program change # in my pedal board so that whenever I use that patch in a Concert for a gig, I can call it up on my pedal board as well without having to change anything. I guess I can still save each patch with a unique program change # and then make a notation on my music what program change # I need to select on my pedal board, but it would be nice to have the pc #s displayed so I can just jump to it on the fly without having to previously know what the number is.
    (I am probably making this more complicated that it needs to be ...)
    Thanks

  • Feature request: Better keywording options

    There appears to be no improvements in keywording otpions in LR4b.
    How about:

    Larger numbers of keywords in a set.
    Buttons to apply a complete set with one click.
    Put the keywording tools,( ie the same panels as in library module),  in the import dialogue.

  • Annoying Safari behavior when I click show password in preferences and no favicon support

    An hour ago I decided to switch to Safari 6.0.2 on Mac OSX 10.7.5 from Google Chrome and here I am with two issues.
    Issue 1:
          Visiting preferences I eventually went to Password Tab as shown in screenshot below. As I checked show password option all of a sudden this pop up asking for permission :"safari wants to use your confidential information stored in your keychain."
         As I have about 100 websites passwords stored in my keychain, this pop up keeps coming one by one asking for permission for each and every site. And until I select any of 3 options I can not do any activity. I do not want to click around 100 times on Always Allow or any of other 2 options. This behavior is completely nuisance to me. Any suggestion on how to get rid of this? Is this a bug in Safari? Should I report it to Apple?
    Issue 2:
         I figured out that Safari does not support favicons too, which is, in my opinion very efficient way to manage bookmark on Bookmark bar as bookmarks are easily searchable. I visited few questions regarding Favicons and all says NO support for Safari but since they are quite a few months older now I am including it here, with hope, if any solution is known to anyone.
    Any suggestion or assistance will be helpful for any of the issue.
    Due to these two issues I am forced to switch back to chrome within an hour. :-(
    I have also posted my question on StackOveflow website superuser. 
    One small suggestion: UI and formatting on this discussion.apple.com seems very old and painful now. Stackoverflow offers excellent in this area. Kindly try to renovate this site with rich and easy features.

    If you saved the passwords in another browser, then Safari is not automatically authorized to access them, nor is any other application. That's the whole point of the keychain. You should only get the prompt once for each password.

  • Keychain no longer shows passwords

    Since the change to Mavericks my keychain no longer shows passwords, my iPhone no longer logs onto Skype and I can't look up the password any more in my keychain.

  • Saved logins work, but don't show - window blank and can't show passwords

    This has been happening for quite some time now, but I need to resolve it before it can't be. My saved logins work, but when I try to display them I get an empty display. The 'Show Passwords' button is grayed out so no love there.
    The dates on my pertinent files:
    signons.sqlite 7/23/2010 (looks like it's frozen in time)
    signons.sqlite-journal 3/28/2011 (today)
    key3.db 3/14/2011
    I've tried password exporter add-on and password editor add-on and nothing seems to be able to disply/export my logins and/or passwords. There has to be a trick to get this thing working again. I remember trying to find a fix earlier and it was talking about UTF8 or something on the older signons.txt file.
    How do I get my Tools->Options->Security->Saved Passwords
    to display my (probably hundreds of) logins and passwords so I can export them for backup ?
    TIA, Bill
    PS: I do have problems with logins saved since last July that I try to change. It's like it reverts back to the old ones that were saved prior to the FF bug that caused them not to be visible rather than the new ones that I try to save now. Not sure if new logins work right or not, I'm not sure which ones to try that were saved after July (to make a test).

    To check whether it's the database being corrupted, I would try deleting the entries that you think are corrupt (after backing up the file of course) to see whether it then shows up in the password manager.
    FYI, entries not looking like others doesn't necessarily mean they're corrupt. There are different types of entries, which use different sets of fields. A web form entry uses hostname, formSubmitURL, username, password, usernameField, and passwordField; whereas an HTTP authentication entry uses hostname, httpRealm, username, and password (although in the table username and password become encryptedUsername and encryptedPassword); for other protocols, generally only the hostname, username, and password fields are used.
    I hope you can recover your database one way or another. Because of the encryption and the paucity of documentation, it's not easy to retrieve passwords other than through the Password Manager, though I'm sure it's possible. I don't know of any other software that decrypts the database even without a Master Password set, except probably that written for the purpose of stealing passwords, which should never be trusted. If you do find such software and you know it to be trustworthy, let us all know.
