How do i create a background image that i can place objects over (editiabel region)

To whom it may concern:
I apologize my dreamweaver skills are a bit rusty to say the
least-sorry. Anyway, i need to be able to place objects and edit
regions of my website that i have a background image on (i have the
opacity turned down so it appears to be nothing more than a
sillouette). I could really use some pointers. Thanx.

Find the DW executable file (in the Program Files/Macromedia
folder
hierarchy), right click on it, select Version, and tell us
which file
version # you see there, please. It will be something like
6.0.xxxx.

How do i create a form so that it can be saved once filled

I am trying to figure if there is some way that after I have created my form if someone would be able to fill it out the information and then save there information instead of only being able to just print or email it.
thanks
A.K.

I'm also researching how to create fillable forms and have users at 22 locations fill them out, save the filled form locally, send the filled in (but still editable) forms as an email attachment to the Corp office for revisions and then have the Corp office lock, or flatten, the form so it's no longer editable, to the originating location to be printed/posted/filed.
Acrobat Pro 7 can do the creation of the fillable forms I need. It includes LiveCycle Designer 7. But, it appears I need LiveCycle Reader Extensions to allow users to fill in and save the form locally with Adobe Reader. I can, however, find no price info for LC Reader Extensions on the Adobe site...and no reference as to whether Reader Extensions is an included module in LiveCycle Designer 7.
If LC Reader Extensions isn't included in Acrobat Pro 7's LiveCycle Designer 7...and if it's separate costs are too steep (which some forum posts refer too), I'm thinking I can go with something like CutePDF's FormFiller which can fill out and save completed fillable PDF forms locally. I'd rather make use the "free" Adobe Reader, but $29 bucks times 22 locations isn't that bad.
Does anybody know if LiveCycle Reader Extensions is included in LiveCycle Designer 7?...anybody know the cost?...any other form filling/saving options besides FormFiller?

How to create a background image for each item in a List object

Hello.
I am trying to create a background image that displays whenever a user posts something to a list. For example when a user posts text it would appear in a list. The new item in the list would contain a specific background image with the users text appearing on top of the background image. I do not want a background image for the entire list, rather each item within the list.
I am not sure how clear this is so I added an image below. When a user enters text in and clicks the "post-it" button their text would appear below with the sticky note background.
I am not sure which list type would be best for this problem or how to create insert the image, so I am open to suggestions.
Thank you for your help. Any advice or guidance will be greatly appreciated!

Hi
the easiest way would be with itemRenderer.
You have to do two things:
1. In your list declaration use a item renderer: <mx:List itemRenderer="myRenderer"/>
2. create a flex component myRenderer that will be the single item. This can be a canvas with a background image and a text field on it.
When you add a new item to the list, a new myRenderer item will be created and the data property will be passed to it. So you have to put "data" in your textField.
If you need more help try looking at Tour de Flex samples, they're pretty easy.

How do I create a new Style that can be applied to an object?

Under the Assets menu there is a tab called “Styles”. My question is how do I create a new Style that I can apply to an object??? A link to a tutorial or something like that would be useful because I can’t find anything!!! Thanks in advance for helping me eliminate this frustration!!!

What I want to do is create a library of styles that are basically pictures of various wood types.
There are a couple of approaches you could try.
Clipping paths
1. Draw the part shape as a closed path.
2. Position the image of woodgrain above or below the shape where you want it positioned.
3. Cut
4. Select the closed path.
5. Paste Inside.
See: Using FreeHand MX > Contents > Working with Objects > Working with clipping paths
Tiled fills
1. Use autotrace to trace the image of the woodgrain, using plenty of colors.
Using FreeHand MX > Contents > Using Imported Artwork > Tracing bitmaps > Tracing an image
2. Group the traced paths (but not the image) and create a tiled fill,

3. Make a style from a tile-filled object
4. Apply the style to other objects.

How to create a full page background image that is fluid?

I'm creating a website for my portfolio, and one of the things I wanted to have is a full page background image that the div tags are in. I know there is a way to put it in via page properties, but that doesn't allow you to add CSS styles and I want the image to re-size with window changes. This requires putting the image in a div tag, but then it pushes the other div tags (such as my header section and navigation) so that they aren't over the image like I want. Is there a way to push the image div tag to the back so that the other div tags go over it.
I'm using HTML5, and it will also be a responsive design, but the fluid background is only for desktops.
I don't go on the adobe website often, so if you have an answer to this, or need more information to figure it out please email me at [email protected] and you'll get a faster reply than on this forum.
Thank you everyone for your help.

You should set this forum to email you on a reply.
I don't have a link in your question to determine how you are trying to do this, but here's a technique I have used:
Take a look at this website and see if it doesn't have what you are trying to do. You'll see the flag in the background and I have used opacity in the layers on top of it to keep the flag somewhat visible.
Now, what the flag does not do is re-size itself with the viewport (the browser window). But the flag is in a div that sits on top of the body. My code is accessible, but you're looking for the flag div and it's defined in CSS thusly:
#flag {
          width: 100%;
          background-image: url("../images/polish-flag.png");
          background-repeat: no-repeat;
          min-height: 900px;
Now, CSS3 adds a new attribute you can apply to the background image thusly:
     background-size: 100% 100%;
That would make your background fill the viewport.
I chose to not do that, because I was worried about versions of Internet Exploder before 10.

How do I create a duplicate image inside the same page? Then how do I change the color of that image

how do I create a duplicate image inside the same page? Then how do I change the color of that image from black to red?

Hello there!
Here is one way to create a duplicate image and colorize it. As you can see below, I have one image right now, that I want to duplicate.
My layers panel looks like below.
To duplicate your image, click the downward arrow on the right side of your Layer Panel.
Select Duplicate Layer. This will duplicate the layer that the image is on.
Select "OK" to approve the duplication.
As you can now see in the Layers panel, the image is duplicated. The new layer is now at the top of the Layer panel.
Now to colorize your image, go to Window > Adjustments.
The Adjustments panel will now be opened. Select the Hue and Saturation icon as seen circled in red.
The Hue and Saturation propertied panel will be opened. I selected "Colorize", and adjusted the hue and saturation bar to achieve the level red in my photo.
As you can see below, the image is now red.
Now i want to make sure only ONE of my image layers is red. I moved the Hue and Saturation layer to only be on top of the bottom layer. The image on the top layer now will not be affected by the red.
Select the move tool, so I can now move the image layers so we can see both of them.
With each image layer selected, you can take the move tool and move the images. I moved mine on top of eachother and you can see my red layer (bottom) and the non red layer (top).
I hope that helps. i have also included helpful links.
Please post back with any questions,
Janelle

How do you create a rolling title that ends on a still image of the title?

How do you create a rolling title that ends on a still image of the title?

Here's the help page that describes using the tab stops:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PremierePro/4.0/WS35CA53B6-EAFF-499a-A600-DCD85686354Da.html
Let me know if that's clear as mud and I'll try to shed more light on the subject.
One thing that isn't specified/clarified/whatever (and was the biggest stumbling block for me when I first tried this in PPro 1.5) is that the ruler for the tab stops is zeroed at the edge of the text box, and tab stops ONLY work in text boxes (or "text area," however you please). At any rate, you have to position that ruler so that the zero point is at the left edge of your text box, and then the rest of the instructions in the help doc will make sense.
Also, it's useful to show the tab markers while you work. Just go "Title > View > Tab Markers" and you're good.
Hope this helps!
As a side, I have found that this one feature is really the best and most useful part of the PPro titler (and also, just about the only function in the titler that WON'T cause your system to crash on a regular basis).

How can I edit a still image so that I can float it over the video?

I would like to edit a still image so that I can float it over the video - How would I save the image in Photoshop so that just the image and not the background can be imported into Final Cut and the footage behind it still shows up?
Thanks

You need to either create an Alpha channel or cut out the area of interest and paste it into a transparent Photoshop document. You can save the former as PSD, TIFF or PNG. Save the latter as TIFF with transparency enabled (shows up in TIFF Options at step 2 of the save dialog).

How do I create a pdf file that is 300 dpi in Adobe Acrobat XI?

How do I create a pdf file that is 300 dpi in Adobe Acrobat XI?

PDF files do not have a "resolution" - they aren't images. The pages are a mix of vector art and text, and raster (pixel-based) graphics. The raster items on a page can (and often do) have different resolutions.

How to select and edit background images in templates?

I open a template in pages ('elegant brochure' for example) and there is a background image that takes up the entire background of the page. When I click on the image, instead of being surrounded by the 6 little circles (that allow resizing) there are little x's. I can't move or change the image. I thought this was a master object, but it does not have blue circles, and I have 'master objects selectable'. I find it a little annoying that I want to use a prepared template but edit it beyond what apple gives me. Why can't I have more control (short of making a template from scratch)? How do i edit the images that have x's surrounding them?

easiz,
The x's indicate that it's a locked object. Click on Arrange > Unlock to edit it.

How do I fit a background image to fill the entire page?

Hi,
could anyone please tell me how I use e.g. a jpeg image as a background image that fits the entire page without getting horizontal or vertical scroll bars?
Thanks

Hi Pziecina and Nancy O.,
thank you so much for your mails. However, I'm still trying to figure this out.
@ Pziecina...I studied the source code of your webpage and tried to insert parts of it into my own page in different variations. The solution to my problem must have something to do with CSS and img src height and width. All I get is a white page. I found out that an image size set in Photoshop apparently doesn't have any effect on whether the image fills the browser 100% or not.
@ Nancy O. What I'm trying to do is to use one single image as background for a single page on the website, I'd like to construct. An image that opens up to the entire width of the screen...not just the browser. I imagine this with layers of transparent/solid color for text fields. I studied the website page, you suggested and a repeat action is not what I aim for. And I realize that maybe I'm thinking too much in Photoshop terms...thinking I can do similar actions in Dreamweaver. I'm well aware of the whole thing being 'too much' in terms of design and usability but if you check out www.frauhaus.dk I think that works beautifully, although it doesn't open up to the entire screen. I'd like to see if that design concept will work for my own website or if it's going to be too confusing.
And to both of you I really appreciate your time and input, thanks. Even though I'm still getting grey hairs as a beginner I keep thinking that there's got to be a solution to this.
Best regards from MissRaspberryDream

How do I adjust my background image to fit my browser

I have a background image that it 1600 x 1200 and when I try to view in browser, almost half the image gets cut off. How do I adjust the size to fit my browser or even adjust it to fit any browser?

1600 x 1200 is a huge image by web standards. Images don't resize to fill viewport without workarounds (tricks). And while Martin's solution works in some browsers, it's not bulletproof. Downsides may outweigh advantages.
For best cross browser results (including older IE), establish a fixed page width of say 1000px to fit on average displays. Center your page layout.
Open your image in Photoshop or Fireworks and resize it to 1000 x 750. Your image won't fill the viewport but it will fit your page width.

How to change the default BC image that shows in the address bar?

Does anyone know how to change the default BC image that shows in the address bar? I want to swap it out so the client logo shows next to their URL.
Thank you!

Hi,
If you are trying to change the favicon for your site,
You can do it from Site Manager-> Page template -> Default Template
Look for the code <link type="image/x-icon" href="/Path for your image" rel="icon" />, and Click save.
Now where you will use this template, it will display your favicon for that webpage instead of BC favicon. You can define it on Page directly if you are not going to use template.
Please let me know if you have any doubt.
