Layer selection not tied to undo history when Effects panel is open.

Has anyone else noticed a strange behaviour with undo history when the Effects Panel is open?
Try this:
1. Have the layers, history and effects panel all visible at the same time.
2. open an image
3. duplicate the layer
4. make a new blank layer
5. grab the brush tool and paint two brush strokes on the new blank layer
6. go back to the duplicated layer below the blank layer and paint two brush strokes
7. in the history panel go back in the history states and watch the layers panel
Now close the effects panel
1. in the history panel select the last history state
2. go back in the history states
Notice a difference?

I see the behavior and I'll log a bug report for it. Very strange, but good catch that it's the Effects panel that is the source!
27Prac, make sure the Effects panel is up, that is key. But I tested on both Windows and Mac and see it on each.

    accupub,
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • I have a new MacBook(2012). Being a new Mac user, I do not know what to do when Safari doesn't open at all. The icon just bounces up and down and when the cursor is on the top main menu bar it is the spinning rainbow wheel.  Any ideas for help?

    When I try to open safari the icon stats bouncing and then nothing happens other than the cursor turning to a spinning rainbow wheel when it hoovers on the top main menu bar. I have shut down and restart several times. My safari worked yesterday and then today this, but with. I indication of a problem. I can't even get the browser window to open so that I can clear caches or reset anything. When I opened my computer this time I don't even get a bouncing icon. No recognition of selecting the program at all. If I go to spotlight and try to open safari from here I still get no response. Can you help?

    Hi ...
    If you have moved the Safari application from the Applications folder, move it back.
    As far as the cache goes, there's a work around for that when you can't empty the Safari cache from the menu bar.
    Go to    ~/Library/Caches/com.aple.Safari.Cache.db.  Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Try Safari.

  • How to force page to scroll when collapsible panel is opened by link

    Hi,
    I have seen similiar questions asked but not answered, so maybe there isn't away to do this.
    I have numerous collapsible panels going all the way down the page, actually I just formed a Collapsible Panel Group. They are opened by a list of links at the top of the page.
    This is an example of a link...
    <li><a href="#CollapsiblePanel14" onclick="cpg.openPanel(13);">AKC CGC & TDI Testing</a></li>
    And this is the javascript at the bottom of the page...
    var cpg = new Spry.Widget.CollapsiblePanelGroup("CollapsiblePanelGroup1", { contentIsOpen: false, duration: 800 });
    When a link to one of the lower panels is clicked, I would like the page to scroll down so when the panel opens all of the content is within view.
    Is there any way to do this?
    Thanks
    Dennis

    On line 431 of your JS change
    this.content.style.height = this.toHeight + "px";
    to
    this.content.style.height = "auto";

  • How to Change view qualities when effects panel open?

    Open Effects>Stylise>Rounded Corners,
    Turn on Preview (BTW how do I make PREVIEW ON! as the default for all effects panels/windows?)
    Now I want to Hide the Bounding Box and the Edges... but those shortcuts are now inoperable.
    Photoshop allows me to hide bounding box, and the rulers, I think, when having an effect window open, why does Illustrator not permit this?
    Is there an alternative other than canceling out and starting again with the view qualities changed?
    Seems needlessly long winded to cut off these shortcuts just because an effects settings window/panel is open.

    > BTW how do I make PREVIEW ON! as the default for all effects panels/windows?
    Basically, you can't. But you can enjoy the Scribble effect that has it on by default.
    As for effects and their settings in general, I would appreciate if they were truly integrated in the Appearance palette (not just as a copy of the main Effect menu).
    Illustrator still has got too many modal dialogs which hinder doing things like the bounding box example you mentioned.

  • Safari not saving pages in history when linked from GMail

    Ok, no one else is having crashing problems with GMail. Fine.
    How about this one... If you click on a link in a message while reading GMail, a new window will open with the destination web page.
    Now, if you click a link on that new page, the new location will open, but Safari did not save the original location in the history - the Back button is disabled, and it's not in the History menu.
    Now.. where's that "report bug" link...

    can you view the source code ( Safari-View-View
    Source ) of the main page, to see if it is the
    coding that prevents the back/forward & history in
    the new windows that are opened ?
    I'm looking at an email in Gmail, and it has this link:
    http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/ActsAsTaggablePluginHowto/versions/32
    I click on it and that page opens in a new window. In that window, I click on the first link in the body, http://rubyforge.org/projects/taggable/, and that page opens in the same window, but there's no history I was at the wiki.rubyonrails.org page.
    Looking at the source for both the Gmail page and the wiki page doesn't indicate any special coding to achieve that. Frankly (I do web development), I'm not even sure how GMail would be able to control the new opened window and how the links would behave - not to mention being able to not store a clicked link into the history.
    Needless to say, this does not happen in Firefox or Omniweb.
    Well, whatever the problem is, it still exists in the latest version of Safari - from http://nightly.webkit.org/

  • How to recover a file downloaded but not saved in firefox.(when downloading gave the open option instead of save)

    hi,
    Thanks for ur reply.
    But i already searched the windows and looked for that file.. But its not anywhere to be found. See first while downloading i gave the open option instead of save. So after the completion of the download the file opened automatically in winRAR. I tried to extract that file then it gave me some error. After that i closed the winrar and searched for that file in windows with search option but its not seen anywhere.
    Thanks n regards,

  • Safari works great on my iMac, but not so well on my Macbook Pro since upgrading to Lion.  I get a message that I am not connected to the internet when I try to open a webpage even though the wireless icon at the top of my screen shows I am connected.

    Since upgrading to Lion I am having problems with Safari on my Macbook Pro.  I am using wifi to access the internet and the internet works in all other application except for Safari.  When I try to access a webpage most times I get a error message saying I am not connected to the internet.  If I click on diagnose the problem, I get connect again to the internet through the diagnostic process and the webpage generally works.  This is not a problem when wired to the internet.

    Check your network settings, in particular the advanced setting "DNS Server". If it is by chance 127.0.0.1, make sure to change is and use a know DNS Server (from Google for example, or your own Router local address).

  • Control panel does not show the home page when Newsstand app is open - could this be a bug?

    When Newsstand is open and I press the home button twice to access the control panel, the home screen is replaced by the Newsstand app. Is anyone else having this issue? Is there a fix?

    Pressing the home button twice does not access the control panel ... at any time.
    To access the control panel, press the home button once to get to the home screen.  Then swipe up from down near the home button to view the control panel.
    Pressing the home button twice generally shows you the apps that are running.

  • When I open a new tab firefox doesnt redirect me to it. Im not asking about links just when I click(+) to open a new tab it doesnt go to it

    This problem started when I updated firefox to the current realease

    As far as I know, this has never been a feature of Firefox's core. Do you have an addon such as New Tab JumpStart or New Tab King that gave you this feature in Firefox 4? It's possible that whatever addon gave you this feature before hasn't been updated to work with Firefox 5. If you don't want to wait for that addon to update, you could try either of the addons I mentioned above.

  • Cluster does not populate in sub-vi unless front panel is opened

    I have a sub-vi that saves my data to a database and the cluster
    containing the data will not populate unless I open the front panel
    when it executes.  What could possibly cause this?

    It is the readings cluster that does not populate.  That is the input cluster for the vi.  When I run in the development environment the program saves correctly without opening "Save Readings.vi".  However after the complete program is compiled the data will not save unless "Save Readings.vi" is opened when it executes.  I have attached the missing vis

  • When I click "File" and then "New" it keeps opening a new file as a layer and not a background. RGB is selected as the mode.

    When I click "File" and then "New" it keeps opening a new file as a layer and not a background. RGB is selected as the mode.
    With new files opening as a layer and not a background I'm not able to create multiple layers and it wont let me convert the layer to the background.
    How did this happen. I used PS just yesterday and had no problems. Today my computer did mandatory updates and now this.

    Yes. You are using the Ellipse Tool's Pixel option. So it is laying down pixels as it is supposed to do without creating a layer.
    Choose the Shape option:
    Also Layer menu > New Layer creates layers and the curled paper at the bottom of your Layers palette also creates a New Layer. I hope those work.

    Quit the editor, then restart it while holding down cmd+shift+option. Keep the keys down till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.
