How do I stop the blue outline from showing up when I select and drag text?

It is very annoying and I have been unable to Google an answer. Thanks!

Stef,
I don't think the user will ever have any control over that very minor and transient visual design feature of the app. You will have to get used to it. There are many more substantive complaints to be issued regarding the performance of this product.

  • How do I stop the onscreen keyboard from popping up when I click on a text box?

    I have a yoga 2 pro and the onscreen keyboard is irritating. How do I stop it from popping up every time I touch the screen? I am only touching the screen to get to the spot where I want to type--- I don't want the onscreen keyboard.
    Sometimes it obscures the screen so I can't get to the right spot. Usually it disappears when I start typing, but sometimes I'm not even trying to type-- I'm trying to select something and I can't see it any more because the keyboard has popped up. I close the keyboard to get it out of the way, but it pops up when I try to touch the screen again. So I can never get to the spot I want unless I absolutely hit the exact spot on the first try. It happened even while typing this. I wanted to touch a certain spot in the paragraph, but then the onscreen keyboard popped up and I couldn't see the paragraph any more.
    Thanks,

    Did you turn off any of the Lenovo software?
    I closed a random McAfee process via the task manager in an attempt to stop the notification from popping up every ten minutes telling me to restart. 
    I also deleted a lot of the tiles from the colorful windows screen. I think some of them were Lenovo apps. They all seemed to be for some specific purpose though, that I knew I would not use. I have forgotten what they were. I did not delete many-- only a few that I knew right off that I would never use. Could that have affected something?

  • How do I stop the hidden tools from being shown when I select a tool?

    Every time I wish to select a tool in Photoshop CS6, the hidden tools beneath that tool always show.  Whether I do this with my mouse, or the graphics tablet, the same issue occurs.  I'm certain that one click should select the visible tool, and that holding down the cursor should display the hidden tools. Is there a way to make certain that the hidden tools stay hidden? I'm using Mac OS X Mavericks, if that helps.

    The ONLY way I can get that behavior from a single click is to hold the Ctrl key.
    When you hover over a tool preset, do you see the menu added to the cursor?

  • How do I stop the task panes from opening automatically when I open a PDF?

    How do I stop the task panes from opening automatically when I open a PDF?
    When I open some of my PDFs the task panes open too. I do not want them to as I have never used them in reader for any purpose. I use reader to READ PDFs. I don't need the task panes and don't want them opening when reader starts.

    Adobe seem to have decided that they are so important that you must see them. Perhaps because it is their chance to sell you stuff. It seems to vary between releases, are you on the latest? Curiously, many people have no idea how to open and close these panels.

  • In mail how do I stop messages from the same sender from showing up when I select the most recent message from a sender?

    on my iMac, when I view messages there is a grey number at the top of the message. This number denotes the amount of  messages from that sender and when I view the most recent message in my mailbox (from that sender) all of the older messages load with it and this takes a while for the message to become moarked as "read." I know that I can turn this off because I have mountain lion on my air and i do not have this issue. how can i turn it off?
    thanks

    thanks so much, that fixed it! before I posted this quiestions I kept looking in the mail preferences but I dind't think to look on the View menu.

  • How do I stop the alt button from showing the menu bar?

    I use ALT as my push to talk button on multiple voip programs. When in firefox 6, pressing ALT makes the menu bar show up and disappear. I'd prefer to find a way to remove this shortcut from firefox. Changing the shorcut for push to talk on all of my voip programs and breaking a habit would be less desirable.

    "Alt", I believe, is at the system level, utilized by other browsers and other applications for same purpose. Your VOIP might give you an option of Alt-Gr (Alt on right-hand side) or a choice of any other key. Right now either Alt key works in Firefox.

  • When ever I start I have 2 tabs that open one to my start page the other to a funeral directory. How do I stop the funeral site from opening up when I start firefox?

    Every time i log on 2 tabs open.

    Firefox lets you set multiple tabs to open when you start up or click the Home button. Not sure how that other one got on there, but you can remove it.
    Probably easiest to display your desired home page and close all other tabs in that window. Then use the steps in this article to reset that page as your home page: [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page How to set the home page | How to | Firefox Help].

  • How can I stop my iphone 4s from asking for my icloud, yahoo and other passwords all the time?

    How can I stop my iphone 4s from asking for my icloud, yahoo and other passwords all the time?

    As long as you share that AppleID for iCloud, you cannot.  You are sharing a a single iCloud account and sync services.  The only thing you can do is get a second AppleID and use it with iCloud - you do not have to use that new AppleID for anything but iCloud (ie. you can still share an AppleID for iTunes and App store purchases).
    P.S. I am assuming you both want to sync your contacts with iCloud?
