How to remove arrow pointer in painting tool circle?

I'm running Adobe Photoshop 7.0 in Windows 7 Virtual XP mode, since the program won't run in Win7 64-bit mode.  It used to run fine in 32-bit mode. It runs OK in the virtual XP mode, but I find that the circle tool in the painting or clone stamp functions always has an arrowhead in the center of the circle.  It never used to, just the circle for painting or cloning.  How do I get rid of it?  Changing the settings in the Preferences menu does not help.
Also, the virtual mode doesn't seem to allow updating program files, although it updates XP files.  Maybe there is a firewall issue?  I tried to download a Photoshop update file. There was a prompt asking where it should go.  But when I selected a place, and clicked OK, the Next button did not come on.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Noel,
Thanks for your response.  I was only joking.
As far as the virtual XP mode goes: I wasted a lot of time with Adobe techies – in India and elsewhere – first, trying to get an unlock code to install the Photoshop 7 on my new hard disk, then when it booted up, the program would not initialize.  I just get an error message, saying “Photoshop 7.9 could not initialize because your scratch disks are full.”  Then it shuts down.  This, after I have a 1.5 TB size new main drive.
Unless you have any ideas on how to get around this bad penny initialization error message, I am stuck.  It does work in XPM mode, though.  Although I was able to change the screen resolution to remove the mouse pointer in the circle tool, now the tool is the cursor that looks like a small oval over which crosshairs are placed.  I can’t seem to get a normal, single circle.  Is there a switch that restores cursors to a default?

  • How to remove links pointing to the same page?

    I have PDF documents with Links which point to sections referenced (e.g. link of text "Section 2.2" points to the actual page number of "Section 2.2"), but as the links are created from cross-references during rendition from Word to PDF, there are cases that the destination page number and source page number of the links are the same (e.g. links of text "Section 2.2" on page 9 are created with the destination of page 9 which is the actual page number of "Section 2.2"), I want to remove all these links, but I don't know how to get the destination page, I check the API reference and find that "PDLinkAnnotGetAction" may work , but I don't know how to use it, could you check me codes below and advise ? Your help is really appreciated!
    PDPage page;
    ASInt32 i,i2;
    AVDoc avDoc = AVAppGetActiveDoc();
    PDDoc pdDoc = AVDocGetPDDoc (avDoc);
    int pageNum = PDDocGetNumPages(pdDoc);
    for (i = pageNum - 1; i >= 0; i--)
    page = PDDocAcquirePage(pdDoc, i);
    int annotNum = PDPageGetNumAnnots(page);
    for (i2 = annotNum - 1; i2 >= 0; i2--)
      if...
      PDPageRemoveAnnot(i, i2);
    My Product Information:
    Acrobat Pro 8.1.6, Windows

    Start by reading the PDF standard (ISO 32000-1) to understand Actions vs. Destinations.
    Then for each annot, you'll want to see which it has (and in the case of an Action, if it has more than one).  Then you need to parse the action or dest to see what it is and where it goes.  If you don't like it, then you'll delete it.

  • How to remove random icons in Finder tool bars...

    How do I get rid of these things? My finder windows all have, in addition to the normal items, the poster art for an MP4 file I haven't watched in weeks, a question mark and the icon for an app I rarely use. When I normally click on the MP4 it opens the movie in QuickTime, on the question mark it tells me the item cannot be found and the app icon opens the icon. When I left click on any of them, I'm only given the options to make all my tool bar items tiext, text and icons or customize my tool bar but in the customize option there is no way to remove the MP4, question mark or app icon. Why are they there and how can I get rid of them?

    Dominic,
    Why would you bother to take the time to respond to a question you refuse to answer? If searching relating items had proven useful, I would not have posted my question. Why do you waste your own and everyone else's time posting completely unhelpful responses? What do you get out of that? Why are you trolling a board which mainly exists for problem solving if you have no interest in solving any problems? What's wrong with you?
    Best.

  • How to change decimal point in Rotate Tool.

    Hi,
    I use the rotate tool to design gauges, like clocks, a lot. I hold the ALT button and click on the center of my drawing and then a window pops up to enter in what degree I want my object to be. Currently the decimal point only allows for hundredths, ex. 45.25 degrees. Is there any way to change this to thousandths or even higher, ex. 45.25125? I've attached a screenshot to show you what I mean.
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Laura

    Laura Belle,
    When you enter the full decimal value, that should give you the right rotation whatever the truncated value is.
    At least I hope that is still the case in your version.
    You may test it as follows:
    1) Create a square with W = H = 100;
    2) Rotate thrice, each time inserting 33.333333 degrees, then rotate by -100 degrees;
    3) Look at the W and H values;
    4) Repeat 1) - 3), only with 33.33 degrees and see what you get.
    You should get W = H = 100 in 3) and  something like 100.017 to 100.018 in 4).

    Try to force your phone into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the computer's USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. If you can't turn it off, please continue. Press and hold the home button while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • Win32 - how delete some Region points?

    i have 1 Region:
    HRGN hRgn = CreateRectRgn(0,0,wBmpWidth,wBmpHeight);
    heres how i remove some points:
    if (pixelcolor==backcolor)
    SetWindowText(ActivatedForm,"match");
    // remove transparent color from region
    hTmpRgn = CreateRectRgn(x,y,x+1,y+1);
    CombineRgn(hRgn, hRgn, hTmpRgn, RGN_XOR);
    DeleteObject(hTmpRgn);
    i belive that the CombineRgn() isn't right, because the points aren't removed :(

  • I have songs in my music i did not download, they have a cloud with a arrow pointing down. how do i delete them?

    i have songs in my music i did not download, they have a cloud with a arrow pointing down. how do i delete them?

    What songs are they ? If it's the U2 Songs of Innocence album then that was given free to everyone a couple of months ago - you can remove it from your account if you don't want it : http://itunes.com/soi-remove
    But the cloud icon means that those songs are in the cloud, not on your phone. You can turn off the showing of all cloud music via Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Music (under the 'show all' heading) 'off'. Or you can hide individual tracks and/or albums via your computer's iTunes so that they don't show in the cloud : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases

    It sounds like you are talking about the cloning tool?
    Tool looks like this:
    Then when selected you can change the size of the brush and using Alt (windows) and Command (Mac) to select your region you want to copy then start to create you cloned image.
    Hope this helps?
