Is there a way to keep the Transform Panel option open in the toolbar?

HI,
I recently started working with Illustrator CS6, and noticed that the Transform option panel in the top tool bar is listed as a word, which i need to click on in order to access the x/y coordinates and the object height and width values. I was wondering if there was a way to set this toolbar so that these options are locked in the tool bar so that i don't need to always click on the word to expand it out. I have included a screenshot of the tool bar as it exists. Also the align options are set up in this way as well.
I also included a screenshot of the same tools in Indesign to give an idea of what i'm looking for, where everything is expanded out.
I believe Illustrator was originally set up in this way in previous versions so i'm not sure why it was changed, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I ran into the same problem.  Here is the fix - all the way on to the right of the control bar there is a down facing arrow with a list icon on it.  There you can remove an element from the control bar and transform with the x,y,w,h coordinates/sizes become fully visible with no need for additional clicks.  You'll have to decide what you want to remove..I took off graphic styles since this is something I barely use.

  • Is there a way a PC version of InDesign file open in the MAC version InDesign?

    I have a PC version file that I'd like to open in a Mac Book Pro.  But not sure if it is doable.  Thanks.

    InDesign files are platform agnostic, but not backward compatible with earlier versions, so as long as you have the same or later version on the Mac it should be fine. There's usually no problem with fonts, either, going from PC to Mac, since both OTF and Windows TT fonts are cross-platform compatible.

  • Is there a way to get all new tabs to open to the right of all extant tabs?

    I just upgraded from to 3.6.10 and now when I open a tab by right-clicking on a link in a current tab, the new tab opens somewhere other than the far right end of all the tabs I have open.
    I want all new tabs to open to the right of the tabs I already have open, just like they used to with the previous version of Firefox I was using.

    Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter. <br />
    ''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
    Filter = '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent'''
    Double-click that preference to change the value to '''false'''

  • Is there a way to know how many tabs are open in the current window?

    I have a habit of keeping lots and lots of tabs open in my Firefox window. Sometimes, I'd like to know how many are open so that I can go through and close some of them if the number is excessive...(or at least excessive by my standards).
    How do I get a quick count of the number of open tabs? Surely I don't have to count them myself, do I?

    Hmm I have an solution for this..
    You can use Tab Counter add-on for this. This add-on shows the number of tab in presently opened window on upper right corner beside minimize.
    you get this from following link:

  • Is there any way to keep declined meetings on my calendar?

    Hello all,
    As much as I understand that declined meetings are deleted from the calendar, is there any way to keep them so that I can recall the dates of these meetings, and request updates or summaries?  I wish they were grayed out so I could still refer to the data.
    Any ideas?
    BY THE WAY, this is exchange mail/calendar appointments.
    Thanks.

    There isn't one. When the computer wakes up, the display is on. You could set a screensaver with a dark background to start automatically after a certain amount of idle time, and require a password to unlock it, but you'd still see the bright login window.
    It also occurs to me that you might be able to set up a task that would dim the screen automatically at a specified time, and brighten it at another time. If you're interested in that option, I'll look into it when I have the time.

  • My daughter has an iPod touch using my apple ID, I just purchased an iPhone with the same ID. Is there a way to keep my stuff seperate from her ipod but still share the iTunes account?

    My daughter has an iPod touch using my apple ID, I just purchased an iPhone with the same ID. Is there a way to keep my stuff seperate from her ipod but still share the iTunes account? I was looking through the photo section on my iPhone and found pics my daughter has taken from her iPod. I do not want my pics, emails, etc to show up on her iPod. Is there a way to stop this from happening or do I have to create a different Apple ID for her to use instead?

    If you have iOS 8 on all devices then:
    If under 13 years create a new ID for her by:
    Family Sharing and Apple IDs for kids - Apple Support
    The use family sharing to share apps
    http://www.apple.com/ios/ios8/family-sharing/
    Family purchases and payments - Apple Support
    If underage and not i)S on all devices then you have to create an ID for here under your name and supervise it use:
    Create a NEW account using these instructions so yo do not have to use a credit card.
    Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    More details of how:
    http://ipadhelp.com/ipad-help-tips-tricks/how-to-get-free-apps-from-the-app-stor e-without-a-credit-card/
    Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.   
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

  • How do I move pictures off my phone without losing the pictures permanently?  Is there a way to keep the pictures in the cloud without them being on my device?

    How do I move pictures off my phone without losing the pictures permanently?  Is there a way to keep the pictures in the cloud without them being on my actual phone?  I'm concerned that the sync feature will remove the pictures from the cloud when they are deleted from my phone.
    Thanks for the help.

    Can I back up iPhoto to the cloud via some apple service (iCloud)
    No
    or do I need to use something else?  If so, any recommendations?
    An external hard disk:
    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

  • Is there a way to keep my Mac Pro On the network without sleeping???

    i'll try to explain this the best way I can. I often wish to access my Mac Pro over the network either for file sharing, or for use with Apple Remote Desktop. The problem is after about 20-30 minutes, the Mac Pro sleeps and disappears from the network. Is there a way to keep it on the network without turnig off sleep mode? I really don't want the hard drives working 24/7 if possible....
    Thanks in advance!
    JPT
    P.S. I'm sure it doesn't matter, but just in case..I'm using the new Apple Airport Extreme base station.

    In the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences, check the 'Wake for Ethernet network administrator access' checkbox under the Options tab, and then use an application such as this one to send it the signal.

  • My husband and I both have iPads and somehow when they were setup the both we're setup using the same email I'd address. When I go to delete and rename one iPad it says all info and pictures will be erased from my iPad. Is there a way to keep the info iPa

    My husband and I both have iPads and somehow when they were setup the both we're setup using the same email I'd address. When I go to delete and rename one iPad it says all info and pictures will be erased from my iPad. Is there a way to keep the info IPad when doing this?

    You can go to Settings/iCloud and delete the account, then create a new iCloud account.  You can still use the same account for the app store though.

  • Is there a way to keep the search bar from unfolding downward?

    I just updated to FF 34 and see that when I start to type something into the search bar it now unfolds downward, taking up about seven lines worth of space -- even though I have search suggestions disabled. The problem with this is that the unfolding covers up part of the urls, tab and top-of-webpage text that I sometimes reference (or even copy-n-paste) to guide my search-term selection. I usually use only my default search engine, so the disadvantages of this "obscuring" definitely outweigh any advantages from being able to more easily select an alternate search engine on-the-fly. In fact, one reason I used the search bar to begin with is to *avoid* the kind of unfolding behavior search engine pages often have. But it's actually more intrusive here, because it is covering up more pertinent text. Is there any way to keep this "unfolding" behavior from happening automatically when using the search bar in FF 34? Thanks

    You can revert to the older Search Bar scheme like this.
    Open up '''about:config''' ''(typed in the Location Bar)''
    Right-click and toggle this preference to '''''false'''''
    '''browser.search.showOneOffButtons'''
    Then restart Firefox.

  • Is there a way to keep unread email at the top of the list?

    Is there a way to keep unread email at the top of the list?  I do not delet email after it's read so I end up with many 'read' email between the un-read email.  Is there a way to cluster the un-read email at the top of the list?
    Thank you,
    Patrick

    Just make a smart mailbox (unread mail) and leave it in the sidebar.

    Just downloaded the new OS for IPhone. Despise the appearance. It has jacked with the way I like things in some unacceptable ways. Is there any way to keep the OS, but return to the old appearance? Important to know BEFORE I download OS for computer.

    I know I am responding to my own thread, but I an SOOOO disgusted with Apple right now.
    The new iOS 7 was the lead story on CNN today... and it wasn't positive. Easy to see why, it's a graphics disaster. It is ugly, difficult to read, doesn't interface aesthetically with the iPhone 4S, and gives everyone in America vertigo. Either fix the appearance, or find some way to allow us to roll back to our previous iOS. Do so quickly, or this life-long Apple customer [circa 1978] will be moving on. If this represents shades of what is coming with OS Maverick, I am petrified. Further, I am a GM of a chain of newspapers and websites in the Austin, Texas area. I will be ripping out a scathing editorial. The notion that we can't roll back from something millions of us hate is despicable. I'm giving you one week. Be sure I am not alone.

  • Is there any way to keep the flash from going off when you receive a text or other notification?

    I have an iphone 4s.  Is there any way to keep the flash from going off when you receive a text or other notification?  I keep it next to my bed at night and keep thinking there is lightning when something comes thru.  LOL

    Go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn LED Flas for Alerts to Off.
