How do I center a page horizontally

As stated below, I have a page with a background image that's
1300 wide. I'd like the entire background to be seen regardless of
the browser. My layers are positioned in the center of this image
(more or less). Is there a way to make sure that the background is
centered and not just the layers? The only place this is really an
issue is in Safari (which doesn't show the right margin).

Thanks.

Background images will not cause scrollbars.

  • How do i center a page?

    Hello!
    How do i center a page in Pages? Its kind of disturbing having it stuck to one side...
    Here is the problem, from another forum though:
    http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/os-x-applications-games/128094-how-do-you-cente r-page-iworks-pages.html&usg=_NBylQsbv3mc7TNuJ8l1S7HpYSUk=&h=448&w=630&sz=66&hl=no&start=46&tbnid=flcQCgZSZ0OLM:&tbnh=97&tbnw=137&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dpages%2Bmac%26start%3D42%26gbv%3D 2%26ndsp%3D21%26hl%3Dno%26sa%3DN
    Thanks a lot for any answers!

    When I open a template in Pages 09, it comes up with an exact fit to the window, that's as centered as it can be. I can drag the window to any part of the screen I wish, including the center. I know that if I expand the window without zooming to fit, the page will be offset, but I don't see that as a problem, as I can control whether I extend the window or not and whether I zoom-to-fit or not. If I don't want to see the windows of other active apps, I can select Pages > Hide Others. If my desktop is cluttered with files, I can clean it up.
    Sorry I can't be more sympathetic.

  • Center Page Horizontally

    Does anyone know what code I would need to include in a .ps file in order to center the page horizontally on the paper on output? If so, what is it? I'm going crazy here!

    If you are sure your logical page will fit onto the media, you could insert
    b <</Policies <</PageSize 3>> >> setpagedevice
    to force the PS interpreter to center (and possibly scale down) the logical page to fit onto the physical media.
    Otherwise you need to know the dimensions of your logical page(s) and the dimensions of the physical media to compute how to translate the logical page accordingly.

  • How to make pages page horizontally in acrobat

    Hi there.
    Is there a way in Acrobat to make pages page horizontally? Similar to an ‘island spread’ in indesign! I need to view a series of pages horizontally, as this will best simulate the way that I will be presenting these pages when pinned up...
    Thanks,
    Craig

    Depends on how you set up your ID file. If you have set up your document as 11 x 8.5 (horizontal/landscape) the resulting pdf exported sould be the same. If you have an 8.5 x 11 Document, Portrait, the exported pdf should be likewise portait.
    If you printed to PDF Printer (and you should have exported instead) these results could be overridden by the page orientation.
    If you have an Acrobat file, whose pages need to be rotated permanately, not just for a particular view instance, rotate them from the Acrobat Navigation Pages Panel.
    Page>Rotate Pages (or Shft+Ctrl+R)

  • I'm in a multi-page document, how can i rearrange the pages or insert blank pages in front of pages? Also, is there a way to show the ruler both horizontally and vertically?

    I'm in a multi-page Pages document, how can i rearrange the pages or insert blank pages in front of pages? Also, is there a way to show the ruler both horizontally and vertically?

    Not on my document. I have a 7 page document open. The "flashing vertical bar" is at the top of page 3. I have the thumbnail view showing. I click page break and two blank pages are added to the end of my document. I have to scrool thru the pages to see that the 2 pages were added as they do not appear in the layout view... I'm not sure if it is inserting a "section" as it adds two blank pages.. But I am clicking on "INSERT PAGE BREAK".. So guess there are still a lot of bugs to fix..
    Thanks again

  • How do you make a page scroll horizontally with mouse wheel?

    As the title says, how do you make a page scroll horizontally with mouse wheel in edge animate?

    This should get you there
    http://css-tricks.com/snippets/jquery/horz-scroll-with-mouse-wheel/
    1. Load the mousewheel min script via CDN (jquery-mousewheel - cdnjs.com - the missing cdn for javascript and css)  into the Scripts Panel;
    2. Add the provided snippet into your Stage > compositionReady event handler.

  • I have 10 UiWebView to load different charts and maps on an iPad,using UIScrollView to scroll through each page, problem is on loading of each UiWebView my UiScrollView does not scroll smoothly to other pages horizontally,so how to make the scroll smooth?

    I have 8-10 UiWebView's  to load different charts and maps on an iPad, i am using UIScrollView to scroll through each page, problem is while loading of each UiWebView my UiScrollView does not scroll smoothly to other pages horizontally, my query is can i load UiWebView on background and how to make sure the scoll of pages is smooth, even though the loading of UiWebViews may take time.
    Note :i have tried disabled scrolling on webview, so when i scroll on the page  the scroll event will be of UiScrollView, so believe no conflict with UiWebView.
    also in ios 6 i read about suppressesIncrementalRendering = True but i want to support ios5, also as UiWebViews are said to be running on main thread by default, i suspect when loading of webViews and when user tries to scroll the page, the main thread is busy, but i want the scroll of the page to be smooth  even though the loading of UiWebViews may take time.

    You will probably get a faster and more accurate answer if
    you repost in the Developers Forum.

  • How do I center objects (photos and animations) so they stay centered with the other page elements?

    How do I center objects (photos and animations) so they stay centered with the other page elements?

    Geez .. Your class doesn't fulfill the javabean specifications. The properties should not be public.
    It should rather look likepublic class TheAddress {
        // Properties ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        private String address1;
        private String address2;
        // Constructors -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        public TheAddress() {
            // Default constructor.
        public TheAddress(String address1, String address2) {
            // Full constructor.
            this.address1 = address1;
            this.address2 = address2;
        // Getters ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        public String getAddress1() {
            return address1;
        public String getAddress2() {
            return address2;
        // Setters ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        public void setAddress1(String address1) {
            this.address1 = address1;
        public void setAddress2(String address2) {
            this.address2 = address2;
    }

  • How do i make a page fit a screen with no horizontal scroll

    I would like to know how to make it so my page does not look
    different depending on the size of the screen you are viewing it
    on. In particular, avoiding how sometimes you have to scroll
    horizontally to see the entire page.
    I would prefer to get the look consistent but don't know how.
    Please help.

    Make sure that your horizontal widths are *not* specified in
    pixels wider
    than the smallest viewport you want to support for any
    container or
    contents.

  • How do I center content vertically and horizontally in GoLive 9?

    Hello, I don't know a huge amount about hand-coding, but I have managed to center my content horizontally using this tutorial:
    http://www.mindpalette.com/tutorials/center_layers/index.php
    But, I want to center vertically as well. Can someone please tell me what to do to make that happen? Or, point me to a similar, easy-to-follow for someone who doesn't do a lot of hand coding? Thanks!

    Ian,
    Hi Jesper, ..., are you comfortable with me using your action when building web sites for my small, commercial clients?
    Certainly, but see the CareWear stipulation under legal informations on his site.
    And as he says, more clumsily, you may put everything in a single cell table, something like this:
    <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center" height="100%">
    <tr align="center" valign="middle">
    <td align="center" valign="middle">
    </td>
    </tr>

  • How can I divide my page (in Photoshop) perfectly in to 4 or 5 sections?

    How can I divide my page (in Photoshop) perfectly in to 4 or 5 sections?
    I'm sure there is a better way to do it than to do maths and measure your screen..
    Thank you~

    It is a wee bit non intuitive.  This will help get you started:
    The bottom row of icons are
    Center Horizontal; Center Vertical, Create Guides, Clear Guides (hold down to clear fields), create new set.
    The size fields are the same as your units, so what I do is Right click a ruler and select what I want (Cms or Pixels).
    Some combinations take some working out.  This image is 800x600 pixels, so I have a 20 pixel margin all round.  Four columns, with a 20 pixel gutter between the columns.  GuideGuide just works it out and lays down the guides.  How useful is that?!
    Column width can trip you up if you don't think what you are doing.  100px into an 800 pixel wide image results in eight columns.  If I had entered a value o 10, then I'd have had 80 vertical guides!.  I am sure you'll have the entire picture from here.

  • How can I centre the page when publishing?

    Hello,
    How can I avoid a big gap on top during preview the site? Or how can I centre the entire page to the screen precisely?
    Thanks.

    Make sure your Top padding is set to '0' in your site properties dialogue box. (File/Site Properties)
    Also make sure the check mark is on to Center your site horizontally.

    Hi Mario,
    The only way to achieve this is by using anchors. There is no way in Muse to do so. For more info, Please refer to the following link Re: How can I have an anchor used as my home page?
