Floating/docking mode for panels
Hey,
I'd like to create a framework of panels that way, so that I am able to switch to a docking/floating mode and be able to separate or adjoin panels - I am not quite sure how it is called in swing - I already checked out the "Creating a GUI with JFC/Swing" tutorial, but as I said I don't know how that feature is called, so I wasn't able to find it.
I appreciate any kind of help :)
thanks

I completely agree than the toolbars take up too much space.
So do the
panels. I once took screenshots comparing panel sizes in FH
5.5 and FHMX.
http://www.judyarndt.ca/fhmx/panel_width.gif
It bugs me that I have to have the view, color and snap
dividers in the
toolbox. My toolbar solution, sort of, has been to use the
Info and Envelope
toolbars as catch-alls for my most-used icons -- align, path
operations,
Xtras. I fill them up to the full width of my screen.
While I appreciate customizable toolbars, I think the
programmers tried to
design the interface so that new users could find their way
around, but gave
little thought to the experienced user who does not need all
that
hand-holding, and would much prefer to reclaim that wide
swath of screen
real estate.

How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?
Starting with Flash Player 11.3, a protected mode was added as a new security enhancement for Firefox 4.0 and greater on Windows Vista and higher. This security enhancement is designed to limit the impact of attacks launched from malicious Flash content (SWF files). For additional details on this feature, please see Inside Flash Player Protected Mode for Firefox
After reviewing this FAQ, we'd appreciate if you would take a minute to let us know if it helped. There is a link to a two question survey at the bottom of the page.
While we believe this feature is fully tested and reliable, if you encounter issues with Firefox we recommend the following troubleshooting steps.
Problem: Flash content does not appear, YouTube display errors such as "An error occurred. Please try again later.", or Flash video will not function properly.
Solution: If RealPlayer is installed on your system, please disable the RealPlayer Browser Record plug-in.
Launch RealPlayer
Click the RealPlayer icon in the upper left corner of the window and choose Preferences.
Choose Download & Recording from the left hand panel
Uncheck "Enable Web Download & Recording for these installed browsers"
Click OK and close RealPlayer
Restart Firefox
If you are viewing this page in Firefox and Flash Player is not working, please click here for an HTML5 version of this video: YouTube HTML5 HD Link
Problem: RealPlayer is not installed, Flash Player crashes in Firefox
Solution:
Troubleshoot Extensions and Add-Ons by launching Firefox in Safe Mode
1. Exit Firefox
2. Click Start > Run
3. Type the following then press [Enter]:
firefox.exe -p
4. Click Continue in Safe Mode
5. Attempt to reproduce the problem
If the problem does not occur in safe mode, please try to isolate it down to an individual plug-in.
1. Exit Firefox
2. Re-launch Firefox
3. Click Firefox > Add-Ons > Extensions
4. Click Disable on all of your extensions
5. Attempt to reproduce the problem, while enabling each extension until you can reproduce the issue
If the issue persists in Safe-Mode, please continue with the steps below:
Some users have indicated that random crashing stops when clearing their Firefox profile. This step will allow you to temporarily test with a clean set of Firefox preferences, without losing your preferences.
Exit Firefox
Click Start > Run
Type the following then press [Enter]: firefox.exe -p
Click Create Profile
Click Next
In the Enter new profile name dialog, type "Test"
Click Finish
Select Test and click Start Firefox
Use Firefox as normal. If the problem goes away, clearing your Firefox preferences, or migrating the important settings (bookmarks, etc) to a clean Profile may be a good permanent solution.
If the problem persists, switch back to your old profile by doing the following:
Exit Firefox
Click Start > Run
Type the following then press [enter]:firefox.exe –p
Choose your old account (typically "default")
Click Start Firefox
Solution: Try a clean Windows profile (You must be an Administrator to complete this step. If your user account is not an admin type, skip to the next section for instructions on reporting a bug.) Creating a new Windows user will rule out any account-specific preferences that may be enabled on your system.
Create a user account in Vista
Create a user account in Windows 7
Use Flash Player normally. If the problem goes away, this indicates a compatibility problem, either with software you have installed or with preferences set on your account.
Reporting a bug:
Please file bugs at bugbase.adobe.com.
Choose "Adobe Flash Player" as the product
Choose "Browser Integration" as the product area
Please provide as much information as possible with what you were doing before the crash and an exact URL where the crash occurred.
If available, please attach your Firefox crash logs to the bug using the Attachments field.
Show hidden files and folders. For more details, see the instructions for the operating system that you use: Vista and Windows 7.
Crash logs are located at C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports\
Logs will be located in either the pending or submitted folder, depending on whether or not you submitted the crash report to Mozilla.
Last resort
Finally, if these problems are blocking you from using Flash Player we recommend, as a last resort, you either revert back to Flash Player 11.2 or temporarily disable Protected Mode. We strongly recommend that Protected Mode is manually enabled once this issue is resolved.
To revert to a previous version of Flash Player, please see this FAQ: How do I revert to a previous version of Flash Player?
To disable Protected Mode, add the following line to your mms.cfg file located in:
Windows 32bit: C:\windows\system32\macromed\flash
Windows 64bit: C:\windows\syswow64\macromed\flash
ProtectedMode=0
If the mms.cfg file does not exist, create one using any standard text editor (e.g.. notepad)
Depending on your operating system, you might need to first save the mms.cfg file to a writable location (such as your documents or desktop folder) and then copy the file into the destination folder using Windows Explorer.
To re-enable Protected Mode, simply remove the line from the mms.cfg file.
Hopefully this FAQ helped you. Please let us know by taking a minute to fill out this simple survey.

My iPhone 4s has been replaced at least 4 times within a year and nobody at the genius bar seems to know what's wrong but every time I plugy phone into my cable that connects my iPhone to the stero in my car and when I disconnect it, my iPhone think its in dock mode and will not play music or sounds with our being plugged into a dock. However it will occasionally make sounds when a text comes in but that's about it. I really don't know why this happens or how to fix it, HELP!!
Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

Dark Mode for the finder/safari/mail/etc
I just upgraded to Yosemite and I am very pleased to see the addition of dark mode for the menu and dock. This such a basic feature that I've needed since I started using macs ten years ago.
I often use my macbook and ios devices in low light environments for work. Venues, theaters, bars, etc. Even on the lowest brightness the screen is distracting to others and compromises my night vision, not to mention causes additional eye strain. More and more these days, IOS and OS X devices are used by artists on stage and by sound and lighting engineers off stage. It's a major bummer when you open your finder and and a blinding white light hits you.
For dark mode to be useful it needs to address more than just the dock and menu bar. Ideally, it would invert colors entirely EXCEPT for images, videos, flash, etc. I would settle for this only being available in the finder and safari. I'm aware that I can invert all colors already, but its annoying that I have to view pictures and everything else in negative as well.
It's a bit frustrating that this was an option in the last version of windows I used ten years ago but has been impossible in OS X. I have every confidence that Apple can make this possible, and I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks,Closest thing is Flavours, but that's not available for Yosemite yet..

I've been trying to find one, but I can't. Regular docking stations for iPods don't work. Any advice?
You should look for one that is certified for use with the iphone.(I don't think there are any currently.) The reason is that some of those devices will put out too much voltage, and potentially cause damage to the iphone.
If you choose to get one that is not certified for use with the iphone, you will get a prompt asking if you want to put it in airplane mode. Doing so will eliminate the signal noise from the phone, but will not allow you to make/recieve phone calls while it is connected.
You can choose to ignore the message if you choose...
Good luck... -
Getting rid of warning message: Note: Nonstandard floating-point mode ...
I'm using the current version of the FORTRAN compiler. When I run code compiled with
f77, I get this annoying message:
Note: Nonstandard floating-point mode enabled
See the Numerical Computation Guide, ieee_sun(3M)
How can I disable this message without modifying any FORTRAN code? I haven't yet found any environment variables that I can set to eliminate these messages.
BTW, this is the version I'm using:
NOTICE: Invoking /opt/bin/f90 -f77 -ftrap=%none -V
f90: Forte Developer 7 Fortran 95 7.0 2002/03/09If you look at the man page for ieee_sun, what is
happening is that f77 programs call ieee_retrospective
when they exit.
All you have to do is link in your version of the
ieee_retrospective function, which you can define
to do nothing.
I made a program called flags.f as an example.
So normally you get :
% f77 -fast flags.f
% ./a.out
Note: Nonstandard floating-point mode enabled
See the Numerical Computation Guide, ieee_sun(3M)
Now link with the ieee_retrospective.c that I've
below.
#include <stdio.h>
void ieee_retrospective(FILE *f) {}
And you get :
% f77 -fast flags.f ieee_retrospective.o
% ./a.out
<No output> -
Are there blending modes for the layers?
Like in Photoshop, is it possible to take on shape and blend (multiply, difference, soft light, etc.)the layers? I can't seem to locate it in Illustrator.
Thanks all!Transparency panel.
Layers in Illustrator don't mean the same as Layers in Photoshop. Think of Illustrator's Layers as equal to Photoshop's Layer Groups (folders in the Layers panel), with each object on an Illustrator equivalent to a Layer in Photoshop. You can change the Transparency Blend Mode of any object on a layer independent of the layer itself. If you click on the circle to the right of a Layer's name you can target that layer and change the entire Transparency Blend Mode for the Layer. -
Not able to find Interactive View Mode for WEBI in BI LaunchPad Preferences (BI 4.1 SP04).
Hi
I am not able to find Interactive View Mode for WEBI in BI LaunchPad's Preferences. It used to be there for BOXI R3. Is this feature has been revoked by SAP in this new release. Please confirm and clarify. Thanks!!Hi,
In BI 4.0, We don’t have the option of Interactive mode, the only modes for viewing WebI documents are as follows:
1) Web: it is similar to the Interactive mode in XI 3.1. It means that you will use the HTML interface in BI launch pad to create, edit and analyze documents.
2) Rich Internet Application: This is similar to the Java Report Panel in XI 3.1.
You are using the Java interface in BI launch pad to create, edit and analyze documents .
But this requires the download of a Java applet.
3) Desktop (Windows only): in this case you are using Web Intelligence Desktop to create and edit documents, a standalone interface that works outside the BI launch pad. But this requires an install on your local machine.
4) PDF: Same as in BO XI 3.1
All view modes except PDF, have "Reading" and "Design" mode.
When you view a WebI document, the default mode is "Reading".
When you modify a WebI document, the default mode is "Design".
The user should use the modify option or view > Design, if he wants to modify a report. -
I have Premiere elements 12 and I have mistakenly docked the Transition panel. How do I undock it?
I have Premiere Elements 12 on an iMac and I have mistakenly docked the Transition panel and I can not open it. Please advise. Thanks you.
Glenn Bailey
Thanks for the reply. Very glad that the Restore Workspace resolved the issue.
As for version 13, there have been several removals and some additions to this version.
DV and HDV Captures are gone, webDVD is gone. The version does not support Windows XP, Windows Vista, or
Mac OSX 10.7. The Elements Organizer 13 that comes
with it is new - even has a slideshow for the Mac people as well as the Windows people. This slideshow is different
than that offered in the past - 720p or 1080p slideshows (AVCHD.mp4) with a choice of 5 different themes.
If you are thinking about 13, definitely go the free 30 days tryout from Adobe route prior to any purchase
to assure the compatibility of the program with your computer environment as well as your project goals.
I have written very detailed blogs on
Premiere Elements 13 First Look
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: Premiere Elements 13 First Look Details
and
Premiere Elements 13 Daily Discoveries
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: Premiere Elements 13 Daily Discoveries
and they should give you a good idea of what to expect. The blogs come with no ads, no registration, free - just my place
to keep my observations on Premiere Elements.
If you do try version 13, I would leave your version 12 installed but closed. Use one program at a time. And, then decide
on the program that best serves your video editing needs.

Docking all windows/panels in DWCS3 MAC OS X?
Howdy,
I'm sure the answer to this is no, but I just want 100%
clarification :)
I have a copy of Dreamweaver CS3 I bought for the Mac OS X,
but I also have it on Windows (I'm switching from Windows to Mac),
and I was wondering if there is a way to dock all windows/panels
together in the OS X version like the Windows version?
Let me explain for those who haven;t a clue what I am on
about! In the Windows version (and like all windows apps) DW is
basically all stored in one window, and all the panels are arranged
inside this one window how you want! But the outer window is like
the container, and minimising it, minimises all of the DW panels.
Now in the MAC OS X version, the toolbars/panels etc are all
seperate to the main document window. So when I open a plain new
doc for exmaple, that can be minimised on its own, but all the DW
toolbars stay on my desktop? Whats the point n that? I can't use
the damn toolbars on my desktop!
Can I contain all these windows/panels in one container like
the windows version? So minimising the doc windows minimises the
lot? I'm SURE you could do this on DW 8 on OS X... but I could be
wrong?
OS X Version doesnt even have the "Coder" and "Designer"
workspace layouts, I have to maunally arrange it to mimic the coder
workspace from windows... quite annoying?
I suppose for a avid MACer this is the way mac works with
windows, and I am just so use to MS Windows that it will take some
getting use to, and in a few months I will probably say the Windows
way is crap, but at the moment I don't and want to know if I can
change it?
Anyone have any ideas?

I got rid of my last Mac a few years back, but I thought that
once DW
lost focus, the panels were not in view. If not, press F4.

You can save layouts, though.

Just wait until you have permission problems. I hope it's
less of a
nightmare for you than it was for me. There are some things I
love
about Mac, but overall, I'll take something I can fix myself.

My iPhone is stuck on dock mode
A few days ago, my iPhone 4 had no sounds (lock/unlock, messages, reminders, keypad, etc) except when someone calls. When playing music, the volume bar below disappears as if connected to the dock. It sometimes works fine, and then it goes to dock mode again by itself.
I've tried re setting it, cleaned the dock in my phone, etc. Nothing works!
It charges fine, and exchanges data with iTunes as well. When I connect it to my Bose speakers, it's not on dock mode anymore, but when I unplug it from the Bose speakers, it goes back to dock mode.
Can anyone help me with this please?!Hi All,
I had this Sound / Speaker issue too on my iPhone 4S, with only Ringtone & Headphones working and no other sound coming despite several software hacks and solutions read on forums here. I managed to solve it today after reading online for a perfect solution.
This seems to be a fairly frequent problem amongst users who are using 3rd party (Cheap Chinese) dock connectors or chargers. There is some residue on the charging connector and hence it seems to be stuck in Dock/Headphone mode. I personally had this issue that only Ringtone and Headphone were working. I cleared some stuck particles from the dock connector in iPhone below and voila ! Sound works perfectly. Try it using a cotton bud / swab with removed cotton or I did it with inverted metal paper clip carefully avoiding to scrap and destroy the PCB board. (Other common solution was to remove water particles from headphone hole but I didnt have any)
All the best,
Cheers ! -
Hi community, hi all,
i have a problem with my iPad (first ... sry for my bad english ... i'm not a native speaker).
Following issue:
My iPad stuck in Docking Mode. Means i get no access to volume keys or to volume bar in the multi tasking section. The volume bar there is empty. So my iPad doesnt play any sound ...
But when i plug in earphones or when i connect my iPad to a bluetooth speaker sound is playing. And when i plug in the iPad into the docking station and pull it off (plug out... doesnt know the word).... then sound comes out of the build in speakers for about 1-2 seconds ... afterwards iPad return into docking mode and sound is away.
What i have done ....
... i rebooted
... i hard reseted it
... i do a factory reset
Nothing work... but it seems to me like a software failure... dont know.
Next issue is that i have no warranty left for exchange at an apple store...
Any ideas from you?
Thanks for any response.
best regardsI had resolved this issue by myself.
I thought long time about it... and then i got following idea.
I thought ... mybe there is something in the connector which think ipad is already plugged into a docking station.
This helps me....
my idea was .... another product with another behavior to the iPad. So i take my iPad Camera Connection Kit... i stuck it into the connector leave it for several minutes ... and removed it.
My iPad turned back in normal mode ... All god. My internal speaker works again. Wuhuuuuu ... Maybe this solution would help somebody.

Dock mode while using magnetic charging
I've noticed that whenever I connect my phoine to a magnetic dock, my phone sorts of changes mode. I.E im using the app Themer, and whenever I connect my phone Themer restarts. It can get especially irritating at times, espeically when it interrupts what im doing, such as gaming.
Is there an option anywhere to turn off the magnetic charging dock mode? I've looked everywhere but nobody else seem to be mentioning the issue or providing any solutions for it.
Solved!
Go to Solution.I'm afraid it's not possible to disable this behaviour. It's up to the app in this case to handle the change in device configuration: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/runtime-changes.html

I have had my Rhyme for about a week now and I accidentally changed it out of Dock mode. Verizon support was not able to help me switch it back. Anyone know how to get this thing back in Dock mode?
I would be happy to see what we need to do to get the Rhyme out of dock mode.
Switching to Dock Mode
Dock Mode turns HTC Rhyme into a desk clock, photo slideshow viewer, or
music player. You can also set it as a speakerphone when you receive calls
while HTC Rhyme is docked.
1. With the dock plugged in, place HTC Rhyme into the dock.
HTC Rhyme automatically turns on Bluetooth and switches to Dock
Mode.
2. If prompted, choose how you want to use the dock for audio.
To exit Dock Mode, tap the circle with the x in it or remove HTC Rhyme from the dock.
Once that is done what happens? Did it go back to dock mode when plugged back in to the dock station?

My phone keeps going into Dock Mode. I have disabled car mode, pulled out the battery, tried to clean out the plug for the charger. It makes all my calls go to speaker phone, closes apps and texts when I am in the middle of using them and just makes my phone pretty much unusable. And now it randomly keeps shutting all sound off, but says its in normal mode so I miss tons of calls.
I have only the the phone for 4 months and I'm ready to throw it out the window. Any help?Hi megmza, Let's get your phone back to normal! Can you clarify your current software version? Menu>Settings>About Phone>Software information. Do you typically use a car charger? If so, was this a charger purchased from Verizon Wireless? I am eager to troubleshoot and get this resolved!
Thank you,
