In CS6 how to change rulers to decimal inches

In CS6 how do you changes rulers to decimal inches

True, no decimal inches option. Well there is metric, but if that's a no-go;
One workaround would be to go into Edit > Preferences > Guides, Grids and Slices and set grid spacing 1 inch with 10 subdivisions. Then in the View menu, Show > Grid or the Ctrl + ' (Ctrl apostrophe) shortcut that will toggle the grid on and off.
This question goes back to CS3...maybe time for a feature request. Odd enough, Inches Decimal is an option in InDesign's rulers.

How to change the local decimal separator on windows xp OS ?

Hi all,
I would like to known how to change programmatically with LV8.5 the local decimal separator ? I want to force this parameter to the point separator, so to be sure that it's not the comma (if it's the comma when installing the executable, the ascii files are not read properly).
Thanks.
Wilfried.

Hi Wilfried,
you can use the format code "%.;" to get points as decimal separator in each string formatting function.
This is the important one. Put it at the beginning of every format specifier!
Some functions have a boolean control 'use local decimator' make sure this is 'F'

Photoshop CS6 how to change new behavior of line tool?

After upgrade to CS6 the line tool behaves differently than I was used to. Now it´s doing something like auto-align. I don´t know how to describe it exactly, but when I´m trying to do lines in small angle it´s impossible, because the tool is always "jumping" to do completely straight lines.
Is it a feature in CS6, bug, or it´s happening only to me?

If you go to Photoshop (Edit)>Preferences>General and uncheck Snap Vector Tools and Transforms to Pixel Grid, does that
make a difference?

Custom Page Sizes - How to change from centimeters to Inches?

Hello,
I'm working on some panoramic prints to an Epson R2400 and I need to set up a custom paper size for printing to roll paper. When I select Custom Page Sizes from the Page Setup dropdown, all my measurements are forced into centimeters. Even if I try and specify it to be in inches when I type in the values, I get an error saying "Invalid Number" because of the " (in mark designation).
And because the input box only allows two decimal places, I can't get accurate inches-to-centimeter conversions because the sizes I need are 3+ decimals when converted to centimeters.
Searching on the web I've come across many pages with info on the Custom Page Sizes dialog box and the images show the values being set in inches, but I've found nowhere that says where you specify where I can change this default measurement?
If anyone could help me, it'd be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Kristin.

Answering my own questions.
Because I'm Canadian, in Preferences -> International -> Formats I needed to change "Measurement Units" to "US" instead of "Metric".

How can I create accurate decimal dimensions when creating a new document or using the art board in Illustrator CS6? When I type in a number with a decimal, it automatically rounds the number up.

How can I create accurate decimal dimensions when creating a new document or using the art board in Illustrator CS6? When I type in a number with a decimal, it automatically rounds the number up.

For my part you are welcome, sdowers.
Unfortunately, the uncertainty arising from the rounding has been up several times here in this forum.
I just came to remember a warning that needs to be given:
The rounding of the representation of a numerical value may be harmless in itself, but if you use it for any operation that changes the value, such as multiplication or whatever, things will go wrong because the operation will be made on the basis of the rounded value instead of the true value. So, as in your first case in post #2, 39.625 rounded to 39.63 will become 79.26 instead of 79.25.

How to change the presets in pop-up menus (CS6 or CR 7, example Photo Filter) with arrow keys?

How to change the presets in pop-up menus (CS6 or CR 7, example Photo Filter) with arrow keys an see at the same time the changes on the photo?
It worked under Windows, now I use OS 10.8 and have to apply a preset with a click or Return button but after that the pop-up menu close so I have to open it once again to change a preset. Please help. Thank you!

The filter panel is a shortcut for the content panel and it only effects the content of that window. So if you have a folder it will only see this as a folder and not with its content. (a Stack behaves about the same, being different in only counting the first file in the filter panel criteria but not what is in the stack itself)
You have a view work arounds, first is use menu view / show items from subfolders (this can take some time especially if you have not used caching before on this content) and this builds visible thumbs for all content and that can be used for filtering.
Or use the find command (Edit / find) and inhere specify the source and fill in the criteria include subfolders and this will give you the correct result.
When you create a smart collection the find command also pops up given you the same opportunity to get the results in a collection, but since a collection is only a bunch of aliases referring to the originals you might be a bit careful with editing and deleting.

How to change the Display Pattern for Decimal Fields dynamically

hi all,
Can any one help me how to change the display pattern for decimal fields dynamically???
Currently I am using z,zzz,zzz,zz9.999 Display pattern for Quantity Field. If the value is blank it is displaying as 0.000 on the Screen. But I don't want this to be printed.
Please help me how to solve this ASAP.
Thanks,
Prabhu

Hi,
Alternatively you can handle it in the context.
In the context area, click on the quantity. In the bottom, click on the conditions tab, and put a condition
<quan field> NE initial.
So the field will not be printed if there is no value.

How to change table border color in DW CS6

I need to know how to change the color of the border around my tables in Dreamweaver CS6. I saw a article on how to change it on http://forums.adobe.com/message/4451812, but i really couldnt follow because im just starting out using dreamweaver and i dont know anything about code. Is there a simple way to change the border color or can you give me a basic step process on how to change the border color in the code?

Just an FYI, nobody uses Table-based layouts anymore. It's much better to use CSS for layouts. Only use tables for tabular data like spreadsheets and charts.
Dreamweaver has a bunch of pre-built CSS Layouts for you to use as starter pages. Just go to File > New > Blank page > HTML. Pick a layout from the 3rd panel and hit Create button. See screenshot below.

How to change the language of CS6 from Chinese to English?

Dear Sir / Madam,
How to change the language of CS6 from Chinese to English?
Please give me advice.
Many thanks,
Eddie

Language depends on what version of license you've bought. If you've bought a 'Chinese' license, you're stuck with 'Mandarin' or 'Cantonese' UI language.
If you purchased a Multi-lingual license (which I doubt they sell these days) and if you did install the 'optional language packs' when installing Photoshop, go to Photoshop Preferences (Edit > Preferences in Windows, Photoshop > Preferences in Mac) > Interface > UI Language - change here.
Also, keep in mind that if you do change the language with multi-language installation or change your locale, Photoshop may ask you to re-enter and re-activate your license.

How to change the language setting in Adobe Flash CS6, from Chinese to English?

How to change the language setting in Adobe Flash CS6, from Chinese to English?

Unless you have a multilanguage serial/ installer, you are on Creative Cloud or care to run through language swap you can't. Retail serial numbers are language specific and most Adobe apps cannot be coerced or switched on the fly since without the proper language resources installed, this won't work...

I got my series number from my Institut (which is in Paris, FR). I do not use Creative Cloud.
When I was installing the software, I cannot select a language.
Could you help me with my problem? Do I have to get a different series number?

lunc,
You will have to get a new application in English, to replace the French one.
You, or your Institute will have to get help from Adobe, I am afraid.

Change Rulers in Fireworks CS6

So in photoshop to change the ruler to inches you just go into the preferences and rulers and measurements tab. In fireworks though there is no such tab, so how do I change my ruler in fireworks to measure inches?

If there were a simple way to do this, I think you'd find it within Preferences. It may not be possible.
Fireworks is really all about the pixels, and doesn't have the "print" orientation that Photoshop does (where output is routinely measured in inches).
I was going to suggest using View > Grid > Edit Grid… to set up a custom grid that could approximate inches. For example, if your resolution were at 72ppi, you could set the grid unit to 72px. But this would be an abstract version of inches, much smaller than the actual units. If you knew the resolution of your monitor (e.g. 106ppi), you could set up a good approximation of inches; however, Fireworks seems to have an upper limit of 100 pixels as the grid unit, so you'd need to at least divide your resolution in half (e.g. 53px) to draw a grid line every half inch.
