I need help making rounded edge rectangular buttons

Howdy, I need to know how to make the buttons I insert appear
rectangular with rounded edges. Any help anyone can offer would be
appreciated. I have a subscription to an online tutorial, but I
don't even know how to ask it to teach me what I need to know.
Please help, It has been a long, frusterating day trying to give my
marketing director what she wants. Any guidence would be
appreciated. -nicki

As Michael says, the easiest way of doing this is creating
the button with
rounded corners in Photoshop or similar graphics application.
But a client of mine wanted to upload images without having
to keep rounding
the corners, so I created an image containing a chromakey
coloured rectangle
with rounded corners, I used the same background colour as
the website
background, then saved the image as a transparent gif,
applying the
transparency to the rectangle colour.
I then used the background-image property to stack the image
with the
transparency OVER the top of the image that I want to have
rounded corners:
<img src="images/transparent_bkgrnd.gif" width="260"
height="194"
style="background-image:url(images/pretty_picture.jpg)"
alt="" />
Hope this helps.
Cheers
Nick

    I need help making Adobe Edge animation appear correctly on iphones, ipads and android phones. It currently looks fine on desktops and androids. I am using wordpress with a responsive theme (Canvas). I will need you to document The url is http://adamhtc.org.s183459.gridserver.com.

    Thanks George, interesting thought.  I looked on Adobe's site and they "advertise" fillable forms for the iPhone and Android markets, but on the Windows Phone tab, that is mysteriously missing.  lol    Maybe it will come later?   Meanwhile, I'll google to see if there are any PDF viewers that can handle it now.   Thanks for the reply.  :-)

  • Need help with rounding of wage types in IT0008

    Hi,
    We have a requirement to round off wage type 1003 - Monthly Salary in IT0008. The amount entered in this wage type has to be rounded to the nearest 10's for India, 100's for Japan and 1000's for South Korea. For all other countries it should be rounded to the nearest whole number.
    I have tried this by setting up the Rounding Type to A/B/C and Rounding Divisor to 10/100/1000 in the wagetype characteristics table T511 for each of the above scenarios respectively but nothing worked.
    If we cannot find a way to set this up through configuration, we are planning to use the user exit in IT0008 to achieve this functionality. So anay ABAPER's also might pitch in for help...
    This is an existing wage type and we just need to apply rounding this time. Need expert advice pls...
    Thanks,
    Priya

    Actually A/B/C and 10/100/1000 should work but it start rounding off from decimal points. For example if you will put 1000 for round off then it will round off to 10.
    Btw since you are going with user exit, you can do it. What you need to do is read the wage type and indirect valuation module (as indirectly valuated wage type don't give you amount so you need to read module variant and valuate the wage type)  and then write the code for round off.
    Let me know if you need some more clarification on this.

  • Need help making a simple script for my webcam

    Hey everyone, fairly new to applescript programming. I just bought a usb camera for my macbook because I use it for video conferencing/playing around, and it is better quality than the built in isight. However, in order to use this camera I need to use drivers from a program called camTwist. This being said camTwist needs to be opened first and the usb camera must be selected from camTwist Step 1 list in order for any other application to use the camera. I just want to make a simple program that would open camTwist first, then select "webcam" from the list (double click it like I always have to in order to select it) in order to activate the driver, and then open photo booth which would then be using the camTwist driver in order to take pictures.
    I made a crude program but it does not automatically select "webcam" from the Step 1 list in camTwist:
    tell application "CamTwist" to activate
    delay 10
    tell application "Photo Booth" to activate
    that’s basically it. I set the delay to 10 seconds so that when camTwists boots up first I can manually select my webcam. HOWEVER, I would like to make a script that would boot up CamTwist first, select my webcam from the list automatically, and then open Photo Booth with the CamTwist webcam driver already selected.
    Don't know much about applescript so any help to make a working script to solve my problem would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    Solved my problem but now I need help with something else! First I used CamTwist user options to create user defined hot keys with the specific purpose to load the webcam. I chose Command+B. I tested it out in CamTwist and it worked. The program follows a logical order from there. First it loads CamTwist, then after a short delay it presses the hot keys in order to load the webcam from the video source list, then another short delay and Photo Booth is opened with the driver loaded from camTwist. Everything works Perfect! Here's the code:
    tell application "System Events"
    tell application "CamTwist" to activate
    delay 0.5
    --Press command+b which is a user defined hot key to load webcam
    key code 11 using command down
    end tell
    delay 0.5
    tell application "Photo Booth" to activate
    My Next question is, would it be possible with this same script to have both applications quit together. For example I always quit Photo Booth first, so when I quit photo booth is there a way to make CamTwist also quit and keep everything within the same script? Please let me know. This forum has been very helpful and lead me to a solution to my problem! Hoping I can solve this next problem as well! Thanks everyone.

    As Lynn found, there is a memory problem with the vi which didn't show up in my limited testing.
    Using Shift Registers with Picture Controls can cause problems.
    See this thread.
    Try the attached "mod" version.
    Then I got to thinking, why redraw the box (2x with "erase") - when you could just move a box around?
    (Note: I used a picture for the box, but you could use other objects.)
    The "mod1" version does it this way.

  • I need help making a new Arch install ISO

    I have posted a couple of messages, but as yet no one seems to have responded, probably because they have not read them.
    I need help building a new ISO for Arch, to take account of dmraid.
    I can and have built ones that get so far, and clearly I am not that far away.
    All I need help with now is getting at the contents of the initial ramdisk (/isolinux/initrd.img) so I can make a new one with modifications, and if anyone can help, I need a hand working out how to use the kernel26.img that I will end up with on a system.
    Any help appreaciated.

    As far as I know this will be included in the next ISO release. I solved it by manually bringing the dmraid package to the install and wrote a guide on installing your root system on dmraid. However when the system crashes I have the slight inconvenience of having to install dmraid and manually mount the sets to do a recovery. I guess this is the part you want to get rid of aswell. I decided to wait until the next holy ISO.

  • Needing help making a Slideshow in Premiere 7

    Back in 2008 several contributors on this forum helped me make a slideshow using Photoshop Elements 6 and Premiere Elements 4, which I am forever grateful for. It was a long process as I had never made a slideshow before, but after much labor I created a wonderful slideshow of my Alaska photos with music. After a lot of reading I decided to upgrade to Elements and Premiere 7, which I was able to actually do for free.   I purchased the Muvipix.com Guide to Adobe Premiere Elements 7 as I was told this would be a great resource to help me out. Well, here I am two years later trying to make a slideshow again and still as confused as ever. I am trying to make the slideshow in Adobe Premiere Elements, as I was told last time it was easier to do it that way if I wanted to add music to it. I am just getting started and am already confused.
    My first question is: Am I best off making the slide show in Premiere Elements rather than Photoshop Elements? I want to add music to it.
    I have tried using both the book that came with the program and the Muvipix book and I am lost on step one.
    In the Adobe manual it says to deselect the Show Video and Show Audio buttons. Why do I need to deselect these?
    In the Muvipix book it tells me to select a number of clips amd then either right-click on them or click on the ">>" button to access the "Create Slideshow" too.  I can't find the ">>" button. How do I access the the "Create Slideshow" feature?
    I have a question about the stills that show up in the panel. Many actual photos appear in this panel. However, there are also a large group of boxes with two swirling arrows, one green and one red. Why are they there rather than actual photos? I have tried double clicking on a few and they all bring up the same photo folder from "my pictures." I am confused.
    Sorry if my questions seem very basic, but this is not what I do for a living. It is a once every couple of year hobby. Perhaps if I ever get it downpat I will do it more often.
    Thanks for any help you can give me. I am sure I will need a little more handholding. I have been looking for the last two years for a class on this program. I know that is what I need. However, none have been available in my area.

    Thanks for the response Steve. I am hoping it will be easier this time around.
    "If you're seeing empty boxes with swirling arrows in them instead of your photos in the Project panel, it means that the program no longer has access to the photos -- either because they were moved or the device that they were on (your camera?) was disconnected from the computer. You really need to copy these photos to your computer's hard drive if you're going to use them in a project"
    These photos were still on the harddrive. I checked in Photoshop Elements and they needed to get reconnected. Here is what I think happened. When I download my photos, they go into MY PICTURES. When I move them from where they automatically get placed by the program, into a folder of my choice, they seem to get "unconnected". I was able to reconnect them and now they appear in Premiere Elements. Thanks for the tip which actually led me to a solution.
    "There are actually at least four different ways to make a slideshow in Premiere Elements and Photoshop Elements. Each has advantages. Which method are you using? (In all cases, as I say in my book, you should make sure your photos are sized to no larger than 1000x 750 pixels in size before you begin.)"
    I am just starting and I was using Premiere Elements 7. I thought I was told back in 2008 on this forum it was easier to do it all in Premiere Elements if I wanted to add music rather than creating it in Photoshop Elements and then moving it to Premiere. As far as photo size, I am a real beginner here. I have no idea what size they are or where to look to find that out. All I know is that  my Alaska slideshow turned out great and did nothing about changing pixels. Where would I find out how to change pixel size?
    "It sounds like you're using the Create Slideshow tool in the Project media panel. (As I say in Chapter 1, you'll only be able to see the >> menus if you go to the Window drop-down menu and select Show Docking Headers.) You can also access this tool by selecting all of the photos you want to include in the Project panel and right-clicking on them."
    I did read about Show Docking Headers and did follow that instruction. That was the first thing I did, actually. However, when I am in Premiere ELements, I still don't see where I find the Create Slideshow tool that you mention on p. 59. I am a bit confused with this option. I can move the photos I want from the panel to the Timeline, but I am confused as to where the "Create Slideshow Tool" is located.
    Thanks again for your help.I know I will get this done, just very slowly.

  • I need help making a popup menu activate a customized lightbox for a digital magazine/publication.

    I'm not much of a programmer since my experience is in animation, but I need to make a popup window link to/activate a lightbox. I did well just to get the button to make the popup work since I have no programming experience! So now, on to something a little more complex for me! A button is basically supposed to bring up a menu (which I got to work) and the menu is supposed to have links that the user can click on to open up a lightbox similar to the one that opens up on the first click of this example: http://viewer.zmags.com/publication/e9dd9178?viewType=pubPreview#/e9dd9178/1
    These were the instructions I was given, but I'm not sure where to even place this code! Please help!
    For example for Brides/Target this looks like this:
    if (window.location.host.indexOf("brides.com") !== -1) { 
                document.domain = "brides.com";
            $('.productImages1').click(function() {   
                openLightbox("http://www.target.com/p/riedel-vivant-champagne-flutes-set-of-4/-/A-10077709#prodSlot=medi um_1_1&term=200-03-1024?ref=tgt_adv_XC&afid=d_brides&cpng=2013weddingregistry&DFA=1");   
                trackEvent("show", {page: 19, id: 'A-10077709', name: 'riedel-vivant-champagne-flutes-set-of-4'});    //_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'Target Advertisment', 'Show', 'Page 19 - item 1']); });

    I was also given this information, but since I can't really read or write code, this means nothing to me. Is this something I can paste in the stages action panel or on the actual buttons that I'm wanting to call up the lightboxes? I like Edge because it seems to be easy and user friendly for creative/non-programmers like myself, but this is getting a bit complex for me. How can I go about this without having to code HTML5 from scratch?
    In the header of the HMTL file, you'll need to add a reference to the Zmags API.
    Example in Header
    <script src="//secure.api.viewer.zmags.com/widgets/iframe.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    Example with Javascript section:
    <script type="text/javascript">  // Opens the specified url in a lightbox, and applies the supplied css to it, if any; otherwising defaulting to the // standard width and height for the lightbox. To explicitly close the lightbox, call close() on the returned lightbox. function openLightbox(url, css) { return window.parent.parent.com.zmags.ps.widget.openLightbox(url, css || {"width": "100%", "max-width": 1010, "height": 780}); } // Shares the specified url on the given network, with optional title and image. This will automatically trigger // tracking of the shared url, so no need to do so here. function shareUrl(network, url, image, title) { return window.parent.parent.com.zmags.ps.widget.sharing.shareUrl('widget', network, url, title || 'Check out this product from Target', image); } // Tracks the logical action, e.g. "show", "overview" event, with the supplied arguments. The actual event action/label // formatting is handled by the Zavior configuration, and can have values injected, like if "args" = {page: 7, name: 'foo', id: 'bar', item: 1}, // a configured label can utilise these data like "${page}" and "${item}". function trackEvent(action, args) { if (!args) { args = {}; } return window.parent.parent.com.zmags.ps.widget.trackEvent("google_analytics", action, args); } if (window.location.host.indexOf("brides.com") !== -1) { document.domain = "brides.com"; } $('.productImages1').click(function() { openLightbox("http://www.target.com/p/giada-de-laurentiis-for-target-6-qt-cast-iron-dutch-oven/-/A-11992 552#prodSlot=medium_1_1&term=11992552?ref=tgt_adv_XC&afid=d_brides&cpng=2013weddingregistr y&DFA=1"); trackEvent("show", {page: 8, id: 'A-11992552', name: 'giada-de-laurentiis-for-target-6-qt-cast-iron-dutch-oven'}); //_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'Target Advertisment', 'Show', 'Page 8 - item 1']); }); $('#activateBtn').click(function() { document.getElementById('activateBtn').style.visibility = 'hidden'; //trackEvent("overview", {page: 8}); $('#big_wrapper').animate({ left: '+=100%' }, 1000, function() { //do nothing }); }); $('#deactivateBtn').click(function() { $('#big_wrapper').animate({ left: '-=100%' }, 1000, function() { document.getElementById('activateBtn').style.visibility = 'visible'; }); }); </script>

  • Need help making slanted grid

    Hi! I'm looking to make a landscape image similar to the one below by first making the grid and then filling it in with the paint bucket. Note I DO NOT WANT PERSPECTIVE, so the perspective grid tool isn't helpful. I've tried messing around with the rectangular grid and mesh tools but I'm very new to Illustrator and can't get what I want. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
    I'm using Adobe Illustrator CS6 by the way.

    Note I DO NOT WANT PERSPECTIVE
    Yes you do. What you've shown is perspective. It's just parallel perspective instead of converging perspective.
    You don't really need grids for such things, but if they make you feel comfortable, you might consider Serif DrawPlus. It costs less than $100, can draw to user-defined scale, and has a context-sensitive axonometric grid feature that's right up your alley.
    It neatly works around the usual problems associated with most grid attempts by displaying only the plane you are currently working on, and interactively switching to another plane when you select an object on that plane. Example:
    1. Set the current plane to what the program calls the Top Plane. The top plane grid displays. The shape drawing tools automatically conform to that grid:
    2. Set the current plane to what the program calls the Front Plane.The left plane grid displays, and the shape drawing tools automatically conform to it.
    3. Set the curent plane to what the program calls the Right Plane. The right plane grid displays, and the shape drawing tools automatically conform to it.
    Now here's the neat part.
    4. You want to draw the next surface that's parallel to the Top Plane. You just click an object already drawn on that plane and it switches you to that grid. Of course, by clicking that object, you've also changed the current stroke and fill to the colors of those of that object, so you're automatically all set to draw the top of the next terrace with whatever shape tool you have in hand.
    5. Similarly click a shape already on the left plane and the current color, grid and auto-conforming behavior of the shape tools switch to that orientation.
    6. Click a shape already on the right plane and the color, grid, and shape behavior switch to that plane.
    And so on. Note that the bounding boxes of the shapes conform to the current plane. So dragging the middle side handles stretches the shapes as you would expect, parallel to the grid lines of the plane the object is on. And it's not just the rectangles, but all the other pre-defined shape tools auto-conform, too. So you get accustomed to it in a few minutes and can proceed quite quickly.
    So it's sort of like the FreeHand / Illustrator perspective grid, except it does parallel perspective.

  • Need help with Rounding a number.

    I have 3 cells each with a formula in them. Please bear with me while I try to explain this.
    Cell D18 contains the formula: =Sum(L18/C5) (L18's value is 58, C5's value is 10), So the value of the cell is 5.8. I need this number to round properly to 6. It does visually on the spreadsheet.
    Cell F18 contains the formula: =Sum(E18/F5) (E18=28, F5=8) So the actual value of F18 is 3.5 which is rounded to 4 visually on the spreadsheet.
    Cell G18 contains the formula =Sum(D18+F18). (D18 visually displays 6, F18 visually displays 4, therefore G18 should display 10). G18 actually displays 9. For some reason the calculations are still based on the actual calculations of D18 & F18, instead of the rounded displayed numbers. How do I get G18 to display the correct number of 10, rather than the rounded down number of 9?
    I'm sure there's a simple fix that I'm just not understanding. I hope I explained my problem well enough, I'd appreciate any help I can get. These numbers are to calculate insulin dosage, so I need to be sure the math is correct.
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    The explanation is that you don't understand what you are doing.
    When you ask numbers to display 0 decimal, you don't ask it to round the contents but to display the rounded value.
    A contents remains 3.6 but the display is 4
    an other contents may be 3.6 too displaying 4
    When you sum, you ask number to add the contents (3.6 + 3.6) which is 7.2 and you ask it to display the rounded value of this result. So you correctly see 7 not 8.
    If you want to get what you described, you MUST force Numbers to round.
    First,I don't understand how you may invent such a silly thing like =Sum(L8/C5)
    You are asking Numbers to sum the result of the division L8/C5 to nothing.
    The correct syntax would ask it to calculate the quotient, no less no more.
    =L8/C5
    but here we need to round so, in D18, enter
    =ROUND(L8/C5,0)
    in F18, enter
    =ROUND(E8/F5,0)
    In G18, =Sum(D18+F18) is silly too.
    You are asking nummber to sum (D18+F18) and nothing.
    The correct formula may be:
    =SUM(D18,F18)
    or
    =D18+F18
