Indesign CS2 Mac: Show an icon in a listbox

Hi
I like to show an icon in a listbox widget. I implemented this using SetRrscID (IControlView) and this work on Windows. But not on Macintosh.
Have anybody a sample who works?
How do I have to implement it?
Thanks
Hans

#include "CoreResTypes.h"
type PNGA(kPNGArtRsrcType) {};
resource PNGA(myIconID) "myIcon.png";
You refer to that PNGA resource with the IDs given to PlatformIconClass.
You may retrieve the actual icon Plugin+RsrcID from the matching fields/methods in CControlView, hard wire them or whatever.
How do you determine that size? 32 bytes sounds a bit low, a typical icon such as the layer eye has a PNG file size of 228 bytes.

  • InDesign CS2 files showing as CS5

    Hi all,
    I currently have CS2 and CS5 running on my computer.
    Some of my files which were saved in CS2 are now showing as CS5 files, which means I can no longer open them using CS2.
    Does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do to make sure that CS2 files are not automatically chaneged?
    Thanks,
    Erin.

    Windows or Mac?
    Mac will only show the most current version for all files. Windows will show the correct version via the icon.
    In either case have a look at http://www.rorohiko.com/wordpress/2010/07/26/soxy-1-4-1-now-available/

  • Indesign cc files show wrong icon

    After using Indesign cc for several months I removed the CS3 version for space and now all the Indesign icons look like firefox brower and will open through InDesign or by browsing for the app, how do I get the connection reestablished between the files?

    so it says my operating system is no longer supported ( PC running XP - just haven't had time/money to upgrade yet) and won't let me re download, so do I have any other options?

  • Many unusual InDesign CS2 problems.

    I am currently using InDesign CS2 (Mac OS X version 10.3.9) and am dealing with a variety of strange problems. A few months back random issues started occassionally and I figured they were flukes, but now the problems are continually growing and getting worse.
    Here we go...
    My measurements stopped defaulting one day to inches and returns to picas every time the program is restarted and randomly throughout the day with different and/or new files I'm working with?!
    My start-up dialog boxes and print dialog boxes that you can opt to not show started showing up again. I uncheck the box so they are to no longer show, but whenever the program is restarted, they show up again?!
    Occassional crashes, but that may be normal?!
    Fonts... it will randomly tell me that fonts are missing when a file is open, but they are installed and by restarting the program the font is no longer missing and I am able to work with the file properly. More recently, however, the problem did not fix and an installed font will not work in the program, but the same font is present and functioning in Illustrator.
    Placed images sometimes print low-rez when they are hi-rez and, when viewing, look hi-rez. When exporting to a pdf, the images become low-rez as well. I can place the same images in Illustrator or view them in Photoshop and they print hi-rez as they should?!
    I am experiencing a lot of problems to say the least. I don't know if my software has gotten corrupt somehow? I'm considering reinstalling. Has anyone experienced this and/or do you have any suggestions on fixing the issue?
    Thanks,
    Megan

    >My measurements stopped defaulting one day to inches and returns to picas every time the program is restarted and randomly throughout the day with different and/or new files I'm working with?!
    Measurements are controlled on a per-document basis, so it will show the last thing used in that document. Your default units can be set by changing the Units prefs with no documents open.
    >Fonts... it will randomly tell me that fonts are missing when a file is open, but they are installed and by restarting the program the font is no longer missing and I am able to work with the file properly. More recently, however, the problem did not fix and an installed font will not work in the program, but the same font is present and functioning in Illustrator.
    Are you using third party font management software? That might be a cause of your issues with fonts. Also, if you can see the font correctly in Text Edit, but not certain Adobe apps, that is a good time to empty caches (see below) and possibly delete all AdobeFnt.lst files. (Search for files that begin with "adobefnt" and end with ".lst". Make sure not to throw away anything ends with .db!)
    >Placed images sometimes print low-rez when they are hi-rez and, when viewing, look hi-rez. When exporting to a pdf, the images become low-rez as well. I can place the same images in Illustrator or view them in Photoshop and they print hi-rez as they should?!
    Are all your links up-to-date?
    Also, check your Graphics->Image settings in the Print dialog. Are they set to "Proxy" perhaps?
    Additionally, for PDFs, what Export->Compression settings are you using?
    If all else fails, do some general maintenance. Start out by resetting your preferences completely. Quit InDesign and relaunch with all the modifier keys mashed down (cmd-opt-control-shift). You should get a dialog asking if you want to reset the InDesign prefs.
    If that doesn't work, try repairing permissions using Disk Utility.
    If that doesn't work, try resetting all your caches using something like Onyx.

    When I attached my USB flashdrive to my new Mac Air no icon appears and the same when I attached my new superdrive.  I just finished downloading pictures off of my old Mac and that one worked as expected. The new computer doesn't show anything but when I pull the USB flashdrive out, a message prompts me with an improper eject notice. Any ideas on why no icon (a disc) appears and how can I get it to?

    Open Finder preferences, click on the General icon in the toolbar. Check the boxes for what you want displayed on the Desktop. Click on the Sidebar icon in the toolbar and do the same for what you want displayed in the sidebar.

    Hi,
    Check the iChat Menu > Preferences > Video Section > Bandwidth setting.
    iChat needs to see a Minimum of 128kbps to do 1-1 chats in Video
    For 3 and 4 way chats it needs 384kbps
    Set the Bandwidth to 500kbps if it is set lower.
    Also check the speed you are getting from your Internet supplier.

  • My mac shows incomplete folder icon

    I was using MATLAB and it crashed suddenly (while using the java plug-in). After that I restarted the computer but the desktop show incomplete icons for folders. Only the top 10% of the icon is visible and the rest is all transparent. In Finder, the problem is similar except that the bottom part shows a repeating rectangular pattern. Using OSX 10.10. Images attached

    Hello!
    You could try to start with these two steps:
    Start your computer in safe mode. That is: shut down your Mac and when you power it back on keep the [shift]-key pressed until you see the large Apple-logo with a loading bar. After a longer-than-normal boot you will see a login-window with the text safe mode. After logging in, see if the issue is resolved. Reboot your OS X normally whether it's resolved or not. Issue solved?
    If not: clear out your user cache. Quit all running apps and open the Finder. Locate the menu called "go" in the top left corner of your computer display. Click "go > go to folder" and copy-paste:
    ~/Library/Caches
         Click [go] Trash the entire content from this folder (likely to be an enormous amount of folders) and reboot your OS X.
    Solved?

  • Illustrator CS2 and InDesign CS2 not starting - here is how it was solved.

    This document is merely a compilation of information found at the sources named at the bottom of this document.
    Basically running older Adobe CS2 Software on a MacBook Pro 10.6.x Snow Leopard - probably like many of you that either can't afford the upgrade to CS3, CS4 or CS5, or maybe don't see the need to do so.  It's running good but it is slow since it is using Rosetta, but it does work - well, used to work.
    Illustrator CS2, InDesign CS2, Photoshop CS2, etc. were all running fine after the upgrade to Snow Leopard (under 10.6, 10.6.1 and 10.6.2).  Then the update to 10.6.3 was installed.  At the same time a bunch of other updates - including the Acrobat 8.2 update - were installed.  Not really sure what did it, but all of a sudden Illustrator CS2 stopped responding at the start up screen - no longer started up and InDesign CS2 popped the registration/licensing screen.  When trying to enter license info on first key press the application quit entirely.
    So maybe the 10.6.3 update was the culprit.  Never even thought that it could be the Acrobat 8.2/8.2.1 updates.  Then I found this thread here:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/613287?tstart=0 (good reading)
    Which ultimately pointed me the the instructions here:
    >start quote from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/534/cpsid_53468.html
    Replace the corresponding files present in the “ /Library/Application Support/Adobe/TypeSpt/Unicode/Mappings/” folder with the one attached to this document.
    Download the attached Mac.dmg (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/534/cpsid_53468/attachments/Mac.dmg) file to a machine where the issue is seen.
    Close all Adobe applications
    Double Click the Mac.dmg file to mount it.
    Copy Mac folder from mounted image. Paste it to /Library/ApplicationSupport/Adobe/TypeSpt/Unicode/Mappings/.
    A message appears to confirm to replace the existing 'Mac' folder. Replace the 'Mac' folder.
    Launch Illustrator or InDesign CS or CS 2.
    The Mac folder attached to this KB document already has the correct permissions set, so it should not be necessary to complete the steps below. However there may be cases where the permissions for the Mac folder get overwritten. In such a case, the original issue can reoccur. To solve this issue, complete the steps below:
    Follow Solution 1 and make sure that all Adobe applications are closed.
    Right or Control click and select 'Get Info' on the Mac folder  in “ /Library/Application Support/Adobe/TypeSpt/Unicode/Mappings/”, which you have copied from the .dmg file attached to this document.
    Verify that under 'Sharing and Permissions' all users listed have no write access
    If a change is required, click the padlock symbol and provide your Administrator credentials
    Select the user which has Write access and change it to 'Read Only'.
    Ensure the user 'Everyone' is set to 'No Access.
    To check if the issue has been solved, launch Acrobat 8.2 and then Illustrator or InDesign CS or CS 2.
    < end quote
    Even after following the instructions still "no love" from Illustrator CS2 or InDesign CS2.  InDesign did no longer show the registration screen, but it didn't continue launching, and Illustrator progressed further along in the start up sequence but also never finished launching.
    Then I found another article on the adobe site.  I am just quoting the part performed  and which ultimately did the trick.
    >start quote from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/326/326388.html
    Steps 1 and 2 are not relevant so no need to do them
    3. At the Finder, choose File > Find.
    4. TypeAdobeFnt10.lst (Illustrator CS2), select the system drive, and then press Return.
    5. Delete all AdobeFnt10.lst files found.
    6. Restart the computer.
    7. Restart Illustrator. Illustrator creates a new Adobefnt10.lst or AdobeFnt07.lst file.
    < end quote
    So, this solved the problems at least for the time being.  Hope this helps someone else a bit.

    Illustrator CS2 stopped working for me on Snow Leopard as well. What it all boiled down to was not to update to 12.0.1. Not sure which release of Snow Leopard I was on when I figured that out but I keep up-to-date, am now at 10.6.6 and CS2 still works fine. I keep getting prompted to update to 12.0.1 from time to time but just cancel it.
    I'm fairly sure I was at 12.0.1 already when I moved from Leopard to Snow Leopard and it was that, not a Snow Leopard update, that "broke" CS2 12.0.1. If I remember correctly, if you now try to apply the update, it won't go through with it anyway.

  • Masking unwanted sides to drop shadow effect (AI CS2 Mac)

    I've got a problem with drop shadows in CS2 (Mac). Can anyone help? I've applied an offset of zero and a blur of 1mm which works fine but the object is at the corner of the artboard and the shadow spills over onto the pasteboard and leaves a fine line showing when imported into InDesign (at the edge of the graphics frame).
    Can you tell me how I can loose the shadow on the two sides I don't want it? I've tried creating a clipping mask behind to paste it into but I loose the solid area of the object (with the shadow) that I'm pasting in to the mask.
    Many thanks,
    Bob

    I don't see a problem. A clipping mask should work, but perhaps I might not be following the description in your second paragraph correctly.
    Could you clarify, preferably by providing a screenshot that illustrates what you get and what you want to achieve?

  • Leopard, InDesign CS2, and Xerox Phaser 6120 Broken

    I just updated to Leopard andexcept for a few minor burps, most everything is working except printing from InDesign CS2. When I try to print to my Xerox Phaser 6120, in the printer queue window I get the error:
    /usr/libexec/cups/filter/pictwpstops failed
    If I look in the CUPS logs, I see this:

    It looks to me like xc6120pstops is crashing and dumping core. Or maybe the issue is with pictwpstops . If I switch over to the "Generic" PostScript printer everything works just fine (but I loose duplexing). And no problems printing from other applications, at least yet.
    Has anyone else seen a similar problem?

    I seem to be having the same problem with my Xerox Phaser 6120 although it is not application specific. xc6120pstops crashes even if I just print a test page. Generic postscript printer works fine. I've managed to set the printer default to use the duplexer via the web interface, but I'd still rather have full access to the driver.
    The Crashreporter log (which oddly reports that xc6120pstops is PPC even though it should be Intel) indeed shows a crash, but I don't know how to interpret any of the detailed information:

    InDesign can't open FreeHand files, regrdless of the
    extension. For edit=
    ing or even opening fh11 file you'll need FreeHand.
    Illustrator, however=
    , can open older FH files so you have to export as fh9 (or
    older) first.=
    You can extract some elements, export as eps or pdf, etc.
    and import in=
    to FreeHand but it is almost like recreating the design from
    sctratch.
    You can of course use 30 day demo of FreeHand for editing.

  • Failure to fully export pdf from InDesign CS2 (application unexpectedly quits)

    I found a TechNote detailing such an issue when you save or export a PDF after the Adobe application has been left idle for several days. However, when I tried both suggested solutions, I was unable to fix the problem. Some say it may be that I have a corrupt file, but the file saves normally and shows no signs of error.
    When I try to export a file as a PDF file from InDesign CS2, I don't get an error message when I save the file. I only receive an error message when I try to open the resulting PDF file which has not been fully processed.
    The error message I see is as follows:
    * Exporting a PDF file from InDesign CS2: The file appears to save without error, but when I open the file with Acrobat I see the error "Acrobat could not open '[file name]' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). To create an Adobe PDF document, go to the source application. Then print the document to Adobe PDF."
    Thus, I tried solution 1: upgrading my Mac to Mac OS X v10.5. That didn't work.
    Then I tried solution 2: save the file, and then restart the application. That also did not work.
    The TechNote goes into further detail, explaining:
    "When you save or export PDF files from Photoshop CS2, Acrobat 7, Illustrator CS2, or InDesign CS2, the application must reference the TemporaryItems file located in /tmp/501. Prior to Mac OS X.v10.4, Mac OS X regularly deleted files in the /tmp folder that had not been used or modified within a certain period (approximately two or three days). If an Adobe application is running but unused for several days, Mac OS X prior to version v10.4, would delete the TemporaryItems file. When you save or export a file as PDF, the Adobe application attempts to reference the no-longer existing TemporaryItems file which results in errors or faulty PDF creation.
    When you restarting the Adobe application and then save or export a PDF, the application rebuilds the TemporaryItems file."
    Does anyone have any other suggestions for a solution to my query?

    Similar to you, I've just posted the following in the InDesign section:
    Problems writing pdf from InDesign CS2
    Hello everyone, I've just gone and bought myself a new 2.4ghz iMac and done all of the updates for Tiger so I'm now running 10.4.11. InDesign CS2 is version 4.0.5.
    I have a simple A4 document with 3 placed images which is an updated version of many done previously. I've never had any trouble writing pdf's from them before until tonight on my new Mac. It seems to get about half way through and InDesign quits.
    If I print to a pdf file then it's okay, but a bit long winded when you get used to exporting from InDesign.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
