Form going off screen

Hi all, new to flex and having what is probably a very simple issue.
I have my s:Application.
In here is an mx:Panel
in the panel is an mx:Form filled with mx:FormItems, including s:DropDownLists, s:TextInputs and s:TextAreas.
My Panel and form appear to be going off the bottom of the window. I was expecting the panel to stop at the bottom of the window and a scroll bar appear but it doesnt.
If i set a height value in the Panel of say, 100, a scroll bar does get rendered. I thought the obvious solution then was to apply height="100%" to the panel and form but this doesnt change anything and it still goes off the screen. I've also applied Bottom values but that doesnt stop it going off screen.
The application has width and height of 100% set, and a VerticalLayout. can someone tell me how to stop stuff going off the bottom of the window? I'm sure it must be something simple but google doesnt help!
Thanks
Steven

OK So I've stopped the problem but am not going to mark it solved yet because I still have a question. I set the Panel to layout="Absolute" and that fixed it. Why does "vertical" let the panel go off screen and not bring up a scroll bar, do you always have to use Absolute?
Also, using s:Panel causes the problem regardless of what layout I apply, why?
Thanks

Window Goes Off-Screen When Mouse arrow Is Moved To Upper Right Hand Corner

It seems like this happened recently. When the mouse is moved and pointed to the upper right hand corner of the screen everything displayed goes off-screen to the right and left sides. The edge of the window is shown on the right side and a shadow on the left side- when I click on those everything pops back on-screen. I have a bad habit of moving my mouse quickly and this has become annoying.
I thought it may have been a "Hot Corner" but I checked and this feature is not enabled(in Expose/Dashboard)
How do I disable this feature?
Thank you in advance.
Steve

Hello Steve:
It definitely sounds like the hot corner "all windows" is enabled. There is a preference file that needs to be trashed, but I cannot figure out which one (no help to you).
Be sure that none of the hot corners are enabled and then restart.
You might also try resetting PRAM (although I do not think that will do anything).

Save/Open Window Goes Off Screen Bug

There's this one particular bug I've been having ever since I upgraded from OS X Maverick to Yosemite. Whenever I open/save a file, whether it's on the web browser or Finder, the open/save window goes off screen. I can still see the window but the bottom portion where you normally have the open, save, new folder and cancel buttons - is all the way at the bottom of the screen.
I can't scale it to its proper size because the window is buried beneath the Docks. The only way to rescale it is to click the arrow key button near the Save As drop down list but sometimes, this button is not there.
Does anyone else have this problem? Any idea how to fix it?

Mouse goes off screen

Have a slot loading iMac where the mouse goes off the edges of the screen. Even if I change the resolution. I heard there is a fix for this but can't find it anywhere. Help please if you can. Thanks!

If you have a multi-coloured Apple in the top left then: go to  Apple Menu > Control Panel > Monitor > In there you will find controls to adjust the CRT display up, down, left, right and the keystone. slowly adjust these until the whole display is visible on the screen.
If you have a blue Apple in the top left then do the same but go:  Apple Menu > System Preferences... > Displays > .
Let us know how you get on.

Text going off screen

When I send a text, it goes off the screen so I can't review it. The text is there, but the margin seems to be beyond the iPhone's screen. How do I make it so it starts a new line when it comes to the end of the screen?

Not sure exactly what the problem might be there, but you can try to perform a reset on the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone should reboot. See if that helps.

Long Vertical CSS dropdown menu goes off screen

Greetings,
I developed a dropdown menu using Spry (Adobe Dreamweaver). It is a vertical menu with multiple sub-menus. Some lists are very long and the menu goes below and off the page.
I found a great example of what I want my menu to do: http://coins.shop.ebay.com/
On the side, it says "Browse By:" and there is a vertical menu. If I shrink the page up vertically a little and watch the sub-menus pop out, I notice they get pushed up if the parent is close to the bottom of the screen, which ensures that none of the options go off the page, they get pushed up.
How can this be done?
Thanks

Have a look here http://pleysier.com.au/mike/
Maybe this is for you.
For the accordion I have used jQuery UI Accordion for Widget Browser which can be found here http://emea-events.wip4.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=ext ensionDetail&loc=en_us&extid=2028523
If you are using DWCS4 or 5, then you can easily incorporate the widget, if not then it is a matter of copying and pasting the code.

Firefox window goes off screen

When i open firefox the screen goes to the side of monitor where I can't get to it.

This issue can be caused by the Babylon Toolbar extension
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

With container checked for resizing, find/find next still goes off screen

I have an ALV in a custom container.
The custom container is marked for horizontal and vertical resizing.
At a higher resolution, only one vertical scroll bar shows - the ALV scroll bar.
At a lower resolution, two scroll bars show: the ALV scroll bar and the window scroll bar.
At the higher resolution, the ALV automatically scrolls to the row with a found item automatically (after doing a find on something beneath the last visible row.)
At the lower resolution, the ALV does not scroll automatically to the row with the found item - you have to manually scroll to see the row.
What can be done to fix this ?
Can I get the resolution somehow and then resize the screen and container dynamically ????

See my note in Coffee Corner and watch out for ALVs sitting beneath subscreens !!!!

Desktop App Screen Goes 'Off-screen'

The app starts up but then in the wink of an eye it's gone. Using Expose I can see it but although it will drag in Expose that changes nothing. Clicking on it's Spaces Options I made sure it's suppose to show on All screens.
I've reset PRAM and NVRAM, but no change. I've disconnect other monitors. I've started up in Single-user mode.
ONE THING WORKED: I set up another User account and from there is works okay.
But it's a valuable app to me and I would like to access it on my main Administrative account.
Any ideas? There's something 'extra distressing' about it, being able to see it in Expose but not able to get to it.
No other apps do this.

Wow! That worked, fantastic! (It's been such an annoyance). Um...I delete from both places.
Note: I was a bit 'chicken-hearted' about deleting so many files in my ~/Library/Caches and in ~/Library/Preferences that I found just the two files (respectively) for the App name and deleted them.
But, considering your suggestion, I suppose we could just delete all those files in Caches and Preference and it does no harm!? -- Well, this will be a useful tip to remember.

Images keep going off the screen

Hi,
I have created a simple card game and added motion tween to it, the cards move around in a sqaure but they go off the screen and come back on because when i run the swf file, the window is to small, if i make the window bigger it still does not keep it on the screen. so it will go down off scren then back up on screen.
I wanted to knrow if i could set it to automticlly set the window so that it does not go off screen.
Thank you

Sorry i think i made it more complicated than it is, let me put this way:
I got an image and everytime i run the image on the flash player the entire image does not show cause it goes off screen, how do i optimize the screen to show the entire image?

You can try disabling emoticons and image previews in your IM appearance settings in your Skype options to see if that changes anything. Some people running Windows XP have had odd graphical and resource issues with versions of Skype above 7.5. The alternative solution would be to downgrade to Skype 7.5 for the time being. You can find links to 7.5 in the thread below. http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/Skype-7-6-crashes-on-startup/m-p/4031560/highlight/true#M353247

My iPhone 4S won't let me send any text messages, I can see the recent ones but when I go to type back the screen goes off and it goes back to the home screen?

I have had my iPhone 4S for a while and it's worked perfectly. Messages were going through fine and everything. I went on this morning as I had a text from someone. I opened the text and the screen just went back to the homepage. It has never done this before so I tried opening it again. The same happened again. I opened a recent text and I can read the old messages fine, it's just as soon as I click to message/text them back it just goes off.
I tried with Facebook mailing and the same happens, it just goes off. And when I go on safari and try and type something in it goes off.
I don't know what to do. I have tried turning it off and on and that didn't work. I have tried resetting network connections and I just don't know what to do. I am currently trying to software update to the iOS 7.0.4 to see if that has anything do with it. As before I clicked to text the person back a carrier question came up and it has come up before, could that have something to do with it?
Please can you help me?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore. Try each of these in order until the issue goes away.

Macbook 13.3 white, the screen goes off and only comes on when screen moved

Hi.
I have the macbook 13.3 in white, early 2009 model. The screen keeps going off and the only way I can get it back on is to move the screen back and forth. By the looks of things this is a common problem and it's usually related to a cable between the screen and the logic board.
My question is, how easy is it to open the mac up and get to this cable to re-connect it properly?
Or do Apple repair this FOC due to it being a popular problem?
Thanks
Mark

My girlfriend has a white macbook that is just over the year warranty. We were going to get the Apple care, but forgot as we got the computer at Best Buy and didn't expect to have problems. I've always previously been a PC guy and had never had problems with my Dells. They all still run and work perfectly but are just obsolete in many ways.
I'm very disappointed with the Macbook. The screen freezes and fades to white and you have to move the screen to get it to work. The computer is still running fine, it just seems like a connection to the screen that is the problem. I brought it to the "genius bar" and they went down and opened up the computer. When I got it back they advised it might be the cable for the screen or the screen itself. He went on to say Apple will not just fix that problem, the only option is to have Apple do a $470 (I believe that's what I was quoted) warrantied overhaul of the entire machine. They don't just fix the problem, they go through the whole machine for $470 and its warrantied. He said a computer repair shop could probably fix the problem cheaper. My problem is that this was a fairly expensive machine that is barely over a year old and its having a problem that it seems many people are having and their only solution is to spend half the money of a new one to fix something as small as a cable that is definitely their fault. I do not think the screen needs to be replaced or the logic board as when you pinch the screen and angle it, it works amazingly. I opened up the machine just to take a look and it seems that the cable for the video goes through the hinge and there is a pleat inside the hinge shaped to contour the outside of the machine when closed that tugs on the cable slightly. I also saw that there was some missing screws that the "Genius Bar" may not have put back. They told me they unplugged and inspected the video cable and the computer worked better for a while which leads me even more to believe there is something wrong with the cable and the hinge design.
I think Apple should fix this problem. This problem that is becoming more and more common and it is definitely a product defect. We are paying a decent dollar for these products compared with PC laptops out there. I'd like to see some decent service. This is not a $470 "one fix fits all" problem for the customer, this is an easy fix for the company to make on faulty products. It will cost them little and its the right thing to do. I predict more and more people will be complaining about this problem in the coming year. They should not be able to profit on this flaw after so recently profiting on the machines.

HT2188 I bought my iPhone 4s Nov. 20. I updated immediately to ios6.0 and cannot make it through even 1 day without the battery going down to almost zero. Thats with apps closed, wifi off, screen off, etc. It's a horror. I have to constantly keep char

I purchased an iPhone 4s on Nov. 20th. I immediately had to update the software to ios 6.0.1. I cannot even get through 1 day without the phone battery losing all power. It loses 10-20% per hour, and that's with apps closed, wifi off, bluetooth off, screen dark, updates current, etc. You can hold the phone in your hand and watch the power go down. It also gets very warm. I have to charge it once or twice a day so I have it when I need it.
I took it in to the Sprint store for diagnostics to see if there was something wrong with the phone. They said the phone is ok, but one of the agents said it's the last update - he has had problems ever since. He said he thought they are working on fixing it & we should be getting another update to fix it. Is this true? I sure hope so! They also showed me how to reboot the phone, especially when it gets so warm. Is there anything else I need to do? Please help!
This is my first iPhone and I am very frustrated and disappointed in Apple. If it's the software, I would think they would be frantically trying to fix it. This phone was not the cheapest phone, so the battery life should be better!

After some troubleshooting, I decided to order a new battery. I replaced the battery and was then able to get it to restore, however--after I restore it and it comes time to restart the phone, it gets stuck and doesn't turn on.
Sorry, your repair ruined the iPhone.
She does not have apple care and even though she loved this device, she isn't going to buy another iPhone because of all the problems shes had with this one (it's just over a year old).
After you ruined the iPhone with DIY, Apple won't touch it anymore. You should have asked before all these had happened.
I'm an android user myself and I love rooting/flashing new ROMS, so if jailbreaking her phone or doing some kind of super-restore with 3rd party programs might help, I'm all for it-
Yeah, all Android user can think of is Jailbreaking, read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743
