Icon Display Issue

I am having an issue where my icons display as if their contrast was too high. The background, dock, .jpgs and movies all display normally but all the icons look as if a white filter where in front of them.
What precipitated this problem was I ran an application that caused the contrast in Universal access to max out. I manually turned this down and everything else looks ok but the icons never went back to normal. It is only an issue on this account in my other accounts the icons display normally.
I have updated video drivers. I have restarted my machine. I have check all the display properties and they look ok (monitor is calibrated and is using millions of colors).
Is there some plist or set of preferences in a account that may control the display behavior of icons or items on the desktop? I am at a loss as to where I should proceed from here. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Anyone even have a guess ... ? Just looking for some ideas.

File Icons display issue

I am using File.icon property to get the icon bitmap image of
a file.
File Icons are not displayed when the operating system
display property setting is in 16-bit color mode or 24-bit color
mode. When the display property setting is changed to 32-bit color
mode file icons is displayed.
System Configuration:
Windows XP (SP2)
1 GB RAM
INTEL P4, 2.8 GHz Processor Speed.
AIR Runtime 1.1
Flash Player 9.0.115.
Can any one explain that is there any issue with Flash Player
or AIR runtime?

It sounds like it may be a bug, which you can report via

Train stop icon display issue

I am using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.4.0
Is there any way we can set the icons for each train stop in a programmatic way in the <af:train> component ?
I have a custom train model class that extends TrainStopModel and provides getIcon() method.
When I tried to use the nodeStamp option, icons are getting displayed twice ( one line below another) in a horizontal layout
<af:train var="node" value="#{viewScope.StepTrain}" id="train">
<f:facet name="nodeStamp">
<af:commandNavigationItem
text="#{node.label}"
disabled="#{node.disabled}"
visited="#{node.visited}
icon="#{node.icon}"
id="commandNavigationItem"
/>
</f:facet>
</af:train>
And if I don't use the "nodeStamp", ADF is not displaying the custom icons at all.
Component document says this component offers alert icon customization. How can we use that ( i.e how to set the status of a train stop to error, warning etc.) ?

Hi,
I have implemented train bar functionality with icons for each train stop using navigationPane.
The sample can be found at: http://andrejusb.blogspot.in/2011/12/adf-train-apply-custom-train-stop-icons.html
Check if it works for you.

Pixelated enlarged screen - display issues related to external hard drive

Hi. I had an external hard drive plugged into my macbook. I have a second monitor hooked up. My screen is pixelated and enlarged (I have to scroll to see the whole desktop). The icons are rearranged and very blurry. Everything is blurry and enlarged. My files will open, but they are all blurry as well. When I noticed these display issues, I realized the mac was not detecting the hard drive that was plugged into the usb port. I unplugged it and then a LOT of folders with the hard drive name appeared on the desktop and then disappeared. I know I may have misstepped by unplugging it, but what can I do now? I have rebooted, shut down, checked zoom and screen resolution settings, and unplugged the monitor. It's the same when I uplug the second monitor and just view my desktop on the mac. Any ideas? Thank you in advance!

There is a multitude of posts here addressing the dangers of using Mackeeper. But just look at this:

While this particular problem may not have been caused by Mackeeper, I urge you to uninstall this piece of trash.

Display issues in FCP X on my MBP

Hi there,
I downloaded FCP X from the App Store this week and installed it and I am having a lot of display issues. My MCP is the 13.3" model from mid 2010 and the graphics card is compatible. I have 8 GB installed, so that should be sufficient as well. The areas where I am having display issues are:
* I don't see the film strip in the event browser. I do see the listing of the files in the event browser.
* I can not see the Inspector browser. Clicking on the i icon does not do anything and does not bring up the inspector browser
* I can not see any of the effects. Clicking on any of the effects buttons does not do anything and does not bring up the effects browser
I also notice that when resizing the FCP window, it does not get repainted properly.
One last thing that is annoying, but I found a work-around for this, is the splash window shows when FCP has loaded. It does not open FCP with the same layout as I last used, in fact it is only showing the menu bar and nothing else.
I hope that someone can help me with any of these problems. I was really excited about getting started with FCP X, but this has been a downer so far....
Thanks.
Edwin

Hi,
i had the same problem when i used the 10.0 version....but i solved in three ways:
Restarting the computer;
or
Creating a new event,clic on new event and the old clips appeared like magic in the old event if you try to access it again....
or
Click and keep pressed the Event icon (the purple star); try to put it in "Machintosh HD" or any hdd you have the event. Magically the clips are again in the browser....

hi, we are using mac mini's for our developement purpose. connecting the same through using Real VNC. Mac mini's are late 2009 and 2010. Now we have upgraded them to 10.8.5. after upgrading having display issues after launching the simulators, we are unable to view the icons we need to move the simulator (into different places) to view the icons.
Also we are having Mac book pro's (Late 2009 & 2010) after upgrading them to 10.8.5. Unable to launch the mac, getting only white screen with apple icon.
Let me know is there any specific Hardware (Graphic Cards) we need to use for the same.
Please provide me the early solutions.

Weird OSX display issues after going to webpage, only thing that fixes is Perm repair

I have a bizarre issue that i'd love some input on. Late 2009 iMac, Mountain Lion (then Mavericks).
I use Firefox to utilize a real estate website (Fusion MLS) for several months now. A couple of days ago, after i would log into the website and use it for a little bit, the rest of my tabs, apps, windows, would all start appearing as black boxes, or have glitched out (generally black) screen display issues. To be clear, other tabs inside the browser would be black, or partially black, and also the right half of my taskbar icons would be black silhouettes of the icon. BUT, the Fusion MLS website would still work fine. Closing the page, etc, would not fix the problem, it would be stuck like that no matter what i closed or opened, computer would function fine except for the display, but i couldnt see hardly any of the apps so I'd have to shutdown, but a simple reboot didnt fix it. After an hour of troubleshooting, I started off in Mountain Lion when the problem appeared, and in the process of troubleshooting I decided to upgrade to Mavericks to see if that would fix the problem, it didnt. Ultimately I discovered the only thing that fixes the problem is to boot into Safe Mode and Repair Permissions, then i can come back in as normal and everything is normal again (a standard reboot doesnt fix it, when logging back into OSX it would still have black silhouettes and all the app windows would be black).
So after the above I decided to just start using a different browser to go to this Fusion MLS website (Safari). Which worked fine for a day, but now when i go to the website, i have no problems, but when i put the computer to sleep, and bring it back, the windows are blacked out and icons silhouetted. So back to safe mode, repair perms, and then it works again. When i do the repair perms, there are usually no verbose things that it says it repairs, sometimes it says something about the PrinterList being 0 instead of 80, but thats it.
Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated, I'm completely dumbfounded....

Now regular Repair Perms doesnt fix it, it has to be Diskwarriors Repair Perms. Also it happens anytime the computer is put to sleep for a length of time and brought back, regardless of whether the Fusion MLS website was gone to.

Major display issue. Monitor or Software?

Hi,
I have two 24" iMacs. Both 2.16 Intel Core 2 Duo, 1 GB RAM. One is 10.6.6 and one is 10.6.4. One has had it's hard disk replaced twice. Since updating to 10.6, they've developed a bad display issue. The desktop icons get all garbled. It looks as though the icons have exploded. Windows leave pieces of themselves behind if you move them and they freeze as they open and expand. I can't forget the horizontal lines that move with the windows. (Which leads me to think software. Any ideas? I was able to take a screen shot but I don't think that I can post it here.

Both computers had to have the video board replaced. Cured!

Icons display as dotted line box

My first post to the community. Please be gentle.
When I access my Documents or Downloads folder from the dock, the individual files are displayed as a dotted line box rather than the icon preview of the file. If I access the Documents or Downloads folder using Finder, the icons display as expected (miniature version of the picture, .pdf, document, etc). For the life of me, I can't figure out why this is or how to correct it.
Not a big issue, but it is really bugging me that I can't figure it out. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi
Once you define the relation ship goto ppos_old and see the structure. After you got the structure of the org unit then click on the staff assignments and look for the position to which you have specified the relation. And go for the reporting structure under the main menu-> Goto-> Reporting structure then you can see the relation ship between the persons but you wont see it as a dotted line its normal line which you can see.

Hi again
Hmmm, new install. Aside from the funky icons does it seem to function?
What is your operating system? Vista, Windows 7, Windows XP and how many bits? 32 or 64.
Note that Adobe has no version of Captivate that has been blessed and purported to run flawlessly on 64 bit systems. We are seeing more and more folks arrive here that are using 64 bit systems and citing all manner of issues. Mostly surrounding capture and audio.

Folder icon display at richfaces tree node

Hello All,
I would like to use richfaces tree structure.
But the issue with that is the folder icon display at each tree node.
For some reason i don't want the folder icon at the tree node.
Is there anyway to get rid of that?
I tried to change the image (iconFolder.gif) to some 1X1 pixel image in the richfaces jar file.
But when i added the new jar with new image for icon, that image is not loading.
I'm using Jboss4.2 as my application server.
Please help me to remove the folder display at tree node.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Elizabath

Hi,
I could see the icon attribute to specify the folder icon at the node. I placed a 1x1 pixel image as the iconfolder image. But that results in a blank pixel at the node. I wish to get rid of that.
Also i wanted to change the navigation images too. i would like to have the + and - sign images instead of arrows.
Any suggestions?

IE 7 and Firefox 3 display issues - neither work as expected

hi,
I'm having a terrible time trying to figure out how to solve the 2 display issues I have on IE and Firefox. I can't get either one to work like it's supposed to.
I'm using RH8, Webhelp and it doesn't matter what skin I use (nothing custom, just what is available in RH).
On IE 7.0.5730.13, Webhelp only displays information in the information frame (text) when I attempt to resize the panes. If I just click and move my mouse just a little bit to expand the TOC text magically appears for THAT selected TOC topic only. If I move to another topic in the TOC, I have to do the same thing. And by resize, I mean, I click and move a millimeter and the stuff displays. Otherwise, if I do nothing, the TOC displays as expected but the text frame (contents) is blank.
On Firefox 3.5.6, the TOC pane does not display 100% vertically........it's cut off at the end of the TOC and contains scrollbars to move vertically and horizontally.
So, neither browser really works for me. Am I the only one?
I'm using RH 8.0.0.203
Any advice or suggestions are very much welcome.......

Ahhh, okay.
That actually seems to be providing a bit of a clue to the overall picture I might think. The icon should be kicking off a Dynamic HTML drop-down area.
Since the icon isn't seemingly doing anything in FF, it's logical to me that you somehow have JavaScripting turned off in FF. This can be done using an Add on product, which is why I asked.
It's also likely the reason for the super short TOC display. Typically the TOC depends on JavaScript to work its magick.
My thought here is that if you and Peter can determine where JavaScript is being turned off, you will solve the issues.
Cheers... Rick

There are no icons displayed if a document (.docx,xlsx or pptx) is within a document set

Hi
I am using SharePoint 2013 SP1 with the September 2014 CU.
If I search for documents in document libraries, they work fine and in the search results I get the Icon to the left of the text showing what type of file it is and the refiner panel shows the different filetypes are returned.
However, if the document is within a document set which itself is inside a document library, then there are no "filetype" refiners shown and the icon to the left of the text of the search result is not there.
Have I misconfigured somnething ?
Regards
Nigel

Hi，
According to your description, There are no icons displayed if a document is within a document set.
For your issue, make sure you have made the Type column displayed in the library.
Go to Library->Modify View->make sure the Type column has been selected:

Dell Studio Laptop with Intel Core i5 S15Z with Intel Wireless Display issues (WIDI) (pkg deal)

i bought this laptop in Jan,2010 . Due to some h/w issue BB replace it in April. When i tested my wireless display capability using the the Intel Wireless Display option i got a message "Intel My Wifi Technology not enabled. Restart the computer and try again." i have restarted my laptop several times. Also in the icon tray when i keep the mouse pointer on top of Intel My Wifi Technology it gives a message "Adapter not found". Please help.
I took the laptop to Geek squad in BB and they told me that they need to put the laptop to factory defualt and troubleshoot the issue that why the wireless adapter is not enabled.
Any suggestion as i don't want to go through this madness of backing up the data and restoring again. This will be my 3rd time . Any other alternatives .
Anybody using the above system with Netgear push2tv . Can you share the output of device manager as i like to see what wireless device you are seeing as i am suspecting this laptop may not have one but then sice i see the s/w available i am confused ?

Almost every time we see a WIDI display issue, it is because the user is trying to use it too far away from the t.v.. It has a very short distance and when out of range, shows an adapter not found error. Playing with it, we found that over 15 ft it adapter wouldn't connect at all, and the closer the better as far as connectivity.
