How to change image size defaults

Hi all
I have a burning question. In CS4, when I use the Image Size command, the default units are centimetres instead of inches under Document Size part of the dialog box.
I know that keeping rulers set to inches will change that default, but I distinctly remember the time when I was able to keep my rulers set to pixels, and my Image Size to inches at the same time.
Something changed at some point and I can't figure out what. How can I keep my rulers set as pixels, but the Image Size dialog box to inches at all times?

Problem solved by a fellow 'shoppist at another forum. He suggested changing the regional settings in control panel and restarting a computer, as he felt that was the culprit. Well, regional settings did it indeed - caught red handed AND with a thong in a purse.
Allow me to paraphrase a rant I already vented on the aforementioned forum: See, I'm in Canada. That means we're officially metric by executive decision. Only, no one ever bothered to tell us, the mindless minions, so we still scurry about our busy little lives oblivious to the existence of a centimeter, while fully engaged in an affair with an inch (or more).
Whoops, pardon - here in Canada it's spelled centimetre.
But every once in a while someone here will stub their toe on a stray "centimeter" (I'm trying to get fired from being a Canadian). And when that happens, since we can't actually see them, we just stare into an empty half-inch space wondering what possibly could have caused a hiccup in space-time continuum.
Microsoft had other plans though. It planted the invisible centimeters into the operating system that are triggered by regional settings. Settings that are officially metric, even if in reality they don't exist, just like the Hobbits, ET's and southern democrats.
OK, rant is over!

  • How do you change image size in the title window?

    I just changed operating systems to Windows 7, which meant that I had to re install Premiere Pro CS4. I am now working on a 64 bit system. Might not make any difference, but thought I would give you the specifics just in case.  When I pull up the title window to add a title to my clip, the image is about the size of a postage stamp. How do I increase the size of the image in that window?

    Thank you again for responding Hunt. I did find out what what was happening.
    I had to reinstall the program on my computer. I just upgraded to Windows 7, and I now have a 64 bit system. When I booted up PPCS4, I assumed that my settings would be the same as they were before when I had Vista installed and didn't bother to check them when I started a new project. Well, they were not. I also added a TV tuner card to my computer. I now can watch HD TV on my computer. I suppose that it is possible that somehow PPCS4 noticed that, and set my default settings to HD, rather than NTSC DV. I just merrily went along clicking the OK button and started editing. When I start a new project now, I select NTSC DV and the Title window works just fine, and exactly the way I expect it to.
    I just received Jeff Bellune's book Adobe Encore DVD 2.0 in the mail and will be totally immersed in Encore studies today. With all of his children, I don't see how he had time to write it, but I'm glad that he did. I also ordered a book entitled Designing Menus with Encore DVD. I know that it was written for an earlier version than CS4, but I will trust what you said about that. Many things are the same with some minor variations due to upgrades in the program. The basic ideas don't change, but how you accomplish them can, and usually do over time.

    Subject: how do you change image size in the title window?
    Welcome to the forum.
    That is an odd one. The Title should be the same Frame Size as your Project/Sequence. What is it's Frame Size? Also, are you perhaps doing a Title based on an older Template, that was done for a different Frame Size?
    What happens if you choose Title>New Title>Default Still?
    Good luck,

  • How to change font size, maximum column size in the result screen ?

    hi All
    That's great when using SQL Dev.
    But I also have a trouble that how to change font size, maximum column size in the result screen ?
    My users think that font in result screen is shown very small, and whenever the data in each colum is long then it's not shown full data in column, they must double click for extend the size. Have the option to default the max size for showing full data in each column ? I try but still not to do that .
    Appreciate for anyone to help us.
    Thanks all.
    Sigmasvn

    You can't change the font for the results screen yet, however you will be able to select an auto-fit option for selected columns, so if some columns have slitghtly wider text you'll be able to set the column widths to handle these wider columns.
    Also, there s the option of switching the layout of a record in the grid.

  • For the life of me, I can't find out what size a photo is in terms of inches or how to change the size of the photo[s] so I can print them. I think I read somewhere to click edit, then click adjust. Nothing there about sizing.

    For the life of me, I can't find out what size a photo is in terms of inches or how to change the size of the photo[s] so I can print them. I think I read somewhere to click edit, then click adjust. I don't see anything about re-sizing when I click the adjust tab: only saturation and tint levels. Thank you.

    With respect to digital images, there really is no size in inches. The size is given as number of pixels horizontally and vertically. In iPhoto '09 you click the little "i" inthe lower right side of the window and it will display information related to the selected photo, including the pixel dimensions. I do not have iPhoto '11 installed so I don't know if it is the same there.
    In some applications, such as preview, it has something additional called Dots per Inch (DPI) which you would think would allow you to convert the pixel dimensions to inches. It is not a real thing, though. The DPI is determined by how large or small you have chosen to print your photo and the capabilities of your printer. 
    There is also something called Aspect Ratio, which is usually expressed in inches x inches such as 6x9 but that doesn't mean the size on the screen or when printed is 6x9.  It is the ratio of the pixel dimensions.  When cropping your photos, you will have several standard aspect ratios to choose from plus any custom ones you create.
    In iPhoto '09, after you choose Print, in the Print Setting window are the settings for the size you want the photo printed. You want to shoose a setting with the same aspect ratio of your photo. Otherwise, iPhoto will resize and/or crop your photo to fit the size you have chosen. 

  • How to change the size of control´s prompt?

    No matter the size of data to be displayed in the view suface prompt, the controls have the same size.
    Does anyone here know how to change the size of control in surface prompt?

    HI,
    In order to change the size of a radio button... one way you may consider is to Customise the Radio Button.
    Place a Radio Button (RB) on the FP of a VI, Right-Click the RB > Advanced > Customise...
    Click the Mode Button (most Left button) for Edit Mode
    Right-click the radio button (the round image) now, you will see a list of actions i.e. Copy to clipboard, import picture ...You will see Four images under the 'Picture Item', those are the images that you will need to replace.
    Prepare Four Images of the similar but larger expected size
    *** Copy the 1st new image to clipboard. Back to the Picture Item and select 1st image. Then, select Import Picture (to replace the existing image)
    Repeat *** for all four images.
    Once done, change the mode back to original. Save the *.ctl
    You are now ready to use the customised radio button!
    Quick sample attached (sorry for the poor images created )

  • How to change images based on action.Even clicking changed images should ?

    how to change images based on action.
    Even clicking changed images should do respective actions.
    and while displaying only one image at a time sholud get displayed.
    I am using three images for a single column of a table in Jsp.
    Any clues.
    Any link for any good javascript html jsp site where i can find some good solution.
    vijendra

    In broad way if i say i have multiple situations in mutiple tables where i need such a logic to operate in for all tables.
    lets say in first time load of page by default one image will be displayed (one with sorted order for first column rest all non sorted)Now after every click to any image respective sort should get called.along with all images should get changed.Here with every function one/two images will get effect at least.
    As in first if i say sort by desc then this image will change rest all will remain in unsort form.
    when i move to other column and click on new image the previos will convert to unsort and new one will convert to sort by ascending. rest all will be in unsort form as it is.
    Now it seems like same logic is required with two three conditions.
    even for everyaction different parametrs has to be passed at differnt situations.
    Any good idea if someone can suggest.
    I will be very greatful for him.
    thanks

  • Hello ! how to change document sizes and use our own size (not A3, A2 ...) thank you !

    hello ! how to change document sizes and use our own size (not A3, A2 ...) thank you !

    Experiment. No harm in trying.
    If you are just starting to use Pages you need to make your own assessment given current events whether committing your work to a format and software given this support is a wise move.
    You also need to look at what will produce workable results. Particularly if your large posters are to be commercially printed and contain large bitmap (photographic) images.
    Always work backwards from your output. Ask your printer what they require to do their job.

  • Change image size on list Field

    I have list library which has column of "Person or Group" and selected "Name with (picture)".  But i cant change image Size there. its always 62x62. How can i change it?
    any idea?
    Regards,
    Lasantha

    How exactly are you wanting to change it? height and width should just be attributes in the element... so.. probably the most simple (but not exactly elegant) way to handle this is to use jQuery.
    If you drop the following script into a Content Editor Web Part on your page, it will resize all the profile pics to 100x100.  (change the numbers to the size you want):
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    jQuery(document).ready(function($){
    $("img[width='62']").each(function()
    $(this).attr("width","100");
    $(this).attr("height","100");
    </script>
    Some Caveats:
    1) This script resizes ALL images that have a width of 62. So, if you have some other random image on your page that is 62px wide, it will find it and resize as well.
    2) I'm references the jQuery library externally which I do not usually recommend, but at least you can drop this script in and it should just work.  
    Again, not elegant, and I'm sure someone smarter than me can improve on it, but it should at least get you what you need.
    Good luck!

  • How to change font size on screen

    how to change font size on screen

    I'm not certain what font sizes you wish to change, when on a page you can use command and the += button to zoom in and make the fonts larger. On the finder desktop you can make what ever is on the desktop larger or smaller from the finder menu click view, custom view options, and adjust the icon size with the slider on the top, and the text using the text size box to select the size that your comfortable with.
    Forgot to add these.

  • How to change font size in textarea?

    how to change font size in textarea?

    to embed a font using actionscript requires adding the font to your library.  to do that, click the upper right of your library panel, click "new font..", select the font you want and click ok.  find the added font in your library, right click, click properties and tick "export for actionscript" (click the actionscript tab if you don't see that option, at first).  assign a class name (eg, WhateverFont).  you can then use:
    var tfor:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
    tfor.size=22;
    var yourfont:Font=new WhateverFont();
    tfor.font = yourfont.fontName;
    ta.setStyle("embedFonts",true);
    ta.setStyle("textFormat",tfor);
