How to eliminate gray rectangles?

Hello everybody,
When I erase in Photoshop part of a drawing, gray rectancles appear. How can I eliminate them? In other words: every time I erase something, text or drawings, those gray rectangles appear. Is there a way to erase something leaving that part just white, so there I can write or draw whatever is needed?
By the way I'm using Mac.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I have already seen where the layer is but I don't know how to convert the layer to a background layer or to add a white layer under that layer.
Thanks

How to eliminate gray screen?

After my machine returns from "sleep", I get a white screen and I have to use my mouse to blacken it in order to visualize the gray screen that asks for password to access. I have set my privacy and security settings so that no password is needed, but it does not seem to work. Any help is appreciated.

Hello,
Resolution
Move the mouse or trackpad cursor over the center area of the login window so you can see the user icons. Click on the icon of the user that you would like to login as, type in the user's password, and press Return.
If the login window is configured to show only the name and password fields, type in the user's name and password into the fields, and press Return (even if you cannot see the rest of the login window).
Additional Information
This issue will not occur if the display is not sleeping when the account is logged out. Use the steps below to confirm that the account is not configured to log out automatically while the display is sleeping:
1. Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General. Click the padlock to unlock the preference pane and enter your admin password. Click the Advanced button at the bottom, then see if the option "Log out after N minutes of inactivity" (where N is the number of minutes) is enabled.
2. Open System Preferences > Energy Saver and configure Display Sleep to occur after the account is logged out, by dragging the slider to a number of minutes that is greater than N was set to in the previous step.
Important: If automatic log out is not needed, disable "Log out after Nminutes of inactivity" in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General. This will also prevent the issue.

How to get rid of red rectangle in gray rectangle cropping box?

A little box has appeared on the right side of the preview screen. It has a small red rectangle in a larger gray rectangle. You can move around the red rectangle to crop the frame.
The problem is, I don't want to crop the frame! How do I get rid of the red rectangle thing?
I've tried the "crop" button and read the documentation about cropping but there's no mention of this red rectangle. I looked at the project settings and it looks good (1920x1080).

... You can move around the red rectangle to crop the frame.
no, you don't crop the video.
It is just shown, when you set your preview window to a setting which doesn't 'fit'. Then, the red rectangle indicates which part of the whole frame you see; or, drag it to a part you like to see.
Set your Preview window to a smaller size (like '50%' or simply 'fit') = no red cross rectangle.
for cropping, use the cropping tool

Lr 5 icon presets appear plain white no like before Lr gray rectangle, does anyone know how to fix

Lr 5 icon presets appear plain white no like before Lr gray rectangle, does anyone know how to fix this?
sorry about my english is not that good.

I have the same problem, those "deleted" drafts always appear in notification center.
I don't like the solution by erasing the contents/settings and restoring from backup. I simply "clear" from right corner in notification center, but not sure if that "clear" function is just a cover-up, or it actually deletes those weird drafts.

Hello there, harvsh.
The following iPad Troubleshooting Assistant has some great all-around steps that might just help:
Apple - Support - iPad - iPad Troubleshooting Assistant
http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/ipad/#section_1
Although all steps are usefull, in the "Restart iPad" section, I would make sure to cover the resetting steps as well:
To reset iPad, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Additionally, in the "Close App" section, I would recommend closing all apps you see there.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Hi AkMat.
Have you actually opened these files to see what they are yet? The few Apps I've downloaded (not from iTunes) typically come with a few files. The actual app, the instructions/help/TOU and sometimes an uninstall.

Creating Web Service from Java Class-How to eliminate nillable="true"

Does anyone know how to eliminate the attribute, nillable="true", from the element tags which describe the parameters in the WSDL created when creating a web service from a Java Class? It does this only for the string types. Is there something I need to set when creating the web service or before creating the web service? Or the only way is to modify this WSDL then recreate the web service from the WSDL.
example part of wsdl:
this is in the <types> tag:
<complexType name="getData">
<sequence>
<element name="schema" type="string" nillable="true"/>
<element name="table_or_view_name" type="string" nillable="true"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
<complexType name="getDataResponse">
<sequence>
<element name="result" type="string" nillable="true"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>

I did do this and I got the following error when deploying to the Stand-alone OC4j:
Operation failed with error:
Error compiling
:D:\h\cots\Oracle\JDeveloper10g10.1.3\j2ee\home\applications\DBOperationsWSApp-DBData-WS\WebServices: Error instantiating compiler: webservice artifact generation failed :oracle.j2ee.ws.common.tools.api.ValidationException : Exception declaration mismatch between Implementation: dbdatapackage.DBDataOperations and Interface: dbdatapackage.DBDataWS. Impl class Method: getData declares exceptions not declared by the interface (java.lang.Exception)
I am quite sure what it is saying. It generated the code for the Interface: dbdatapackage.DVDataWS. Impl class. Why would it not do it right? What expection is it complaining about? java.lang.Exception?

How to programmatically add rectangle to a pdf file ?

How to programmatically add rectangle to a pdf file ?
There is several page pdfs, non-vector, black and white.
Users are color blind and have disabilities.
To train them, one adds a rectangle at a certain lower-left point and width,height specified for a page.
The idea is to give the script the page and coordinates and size of rectangle to be added programmatically. Green rectangles are acceptable as the cones are most sensitive there.
Also, additional feature to add bookmarks on the left in the order these rectangle data is provided to the script.
The script could be "hard-wired" by a list of the rectangle coodinates, and page number, pasted inside acrobat and run or entered into acrobat in some way.
Your script would help many disabled people who are distributed through out the world.
Feel free to contact me by email if you wish.
Dying Vets

P.S.
This rectangle does not have to be a full annotation rectangle which needs user,date and a lot of info.
Something minimal like this would suffice
1 0 0 RG % red for stroke color
200 300 50 75 re
As you can see that the native unit of the pdf file is the "point" having 72 in an inch.
The file dpi would be given. However, one could assume that pixel for the rectangle lower-left and width/height are given.
From the pixels and dpi, the points could be calculated if desired.

How to eliminate the thumbnail picture from a .TIFF picture?

I apologize but could not think of a more suitable forum to ask the question - if someone has an idea for a better place, I will appreciate.
When I create a picture with my (Nikon) camera in the TIFF format, it appears that the picture file contains in addition to the full blown picture, a reduced version of the picture, something like a large thumbnail vrsion of the picture. I found it by trying to create a PDF file of the .TIFF file - Acrobat created a two page file, one with the full picture and one with the reduced picture. It looks that I can't tell the camera not to embbed the thumbnail version.
So my question is, from someone who is familiar with the .TIFF file format, how to eliminate that thumbnail version from the .TIFF file. Must be somewhere (hopfully one) location in the file that when modifying it it eliminates the thumbnail picture from Acrobat's view into the .TIFF file.
As to the question why not simply erase that undesired page from the PDF file - the answer is that I actually going to assemble many (hundreds) such pictures into one PDF file. Acrobat will put all those pictures such that each main picture will be followed by its own thumbnail and therefore I will have to select manually each single thumbnail page before erasing them, extremely tedious. If I could process it at the individual .TIFF file as describrd above, I could easily write a program that does this modification to all my .TIFF files with one invokation.
Many thanks,
David

How to eliminate few subelements from source pay load structure

Hi,
     I have requirement like this, there are 4 sub elements in the source structure, but I need only 2 sub elements in the target structure. The following is the source pay load,

               </access>
          </UDT_PRICELOCZONE>
     </RECORDS>
</ns9:MTI_MANU_PROMOTION>
So how to eliminate other 2 sub elements in the source structure?
Any one with better suggestions, about this idea?
Thanks in advance for all.

Hi
raju jut check LOC exists with the help of exists functionality (node functions)
Use this for input for ifwithout else(boolean function)
And use your access node as a input at "then"
I hope you will get the output.
Check your other thread regarding http sender.

Presenter 8: how to eliminate drop shadown, add outline, enlarge viewer against background

Can anyone suggest how to
- Eliminate the drop shadow that appears under and on the right side of the viewer?
- Instead, I want a thin line - or no line - all the around the viewer to outline the actual slide
- Or, ideally, how can I enlarge the viewer so it fills more of the background. In the example below, all the white space around the slide is actually "background"

Not sure how to eliminate the drop shadow around the bottom and right side of the presentation. I'd dig around in the XML of the published presentation and see if you can find something there.
as to the Presentation taking up more of the window, the shape of the presentation is based on the shape of the PPT slides. So a square presentation will always look like the image you have above. If you made the PPT deck rectangular, it may fill the screen better.
