Lock Fill for Gradient Not Working (like it used to)

This used to work on my last version of Flash (CS5.5):
I use the brush tool to paint a gradient fill area. I then sample it with the eyedropper tool (either right afterwards or later) and notice that the Lock Fill tool option is now on. So far so good. I then continue painting, expecting the gradient to extend itself, because Lock Fill is now on. Instead, a solid fill color (somewhere between the 2 color stops) is painted. The only way I can extend the gradient is to paint the new fill area, then sample the original gradient fill and use the Paint Bucket on the new fill area. Argh...
Is this a bug, a Flash setting that I can modify somewhere, or a planned change in the way Lock Fill works? I've tried this on 2 PC's running Windows 7 and get the same result.

Large vertical gradients not working like examples

Hello guys, now this seems to be a very straight forward thing to do and there are loads of tutorials about the subject. None of them are helping me get this right though, and I can't for the life of me figure out what's wrong...
Im trying to create a simple gui component that has a vertical gradient, simple enough right... I create the sprite, and draw the gradient with beginGradientFill and a matrix with a 90 degree radian angle on it; but it stops working if the sprite has a long width, below is an exmaple of what I mean:
package
import flash.display.GradientType;
import flash.display.Shape;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.geom.Matrix;
public class Main extends Sprite
public function Main()
var theWidth : Number = 800;
var theHeight: Number = 100;
var shape1:Shape = new Shape();
var matrix:Matrix = new Matrix();
matrix.createGradientBox(theWidth , theHeight, Math.PI*0.5, 0, 0);
var colors:Array = [ 0xffffff, 0x000000];
var alphas:Array = [ 100, 100];
var ratios:Array = [ 0, 255];
shape1.graphics.lineStyle(2,0xa1b0b6);
shape1.graphics.beginGradientFill(GradientType.LINEAR,colors, alphas, ratios, matrix);
shape1.graphics.drawRect( 0.0, 0.0, theWidth , theHeight);
shape1.graphics.endFill();
addChild(shape1);
If I change
matrix.createGradientBox(800, 100, Math.PI*0.5, 0, 0);
to
matrix.createGradientBox(800, 100, Math.PI, 0, 0);
it works fine - but horizontally - why is it that applying 90 degrees the fill does not work?
Thanks for your help, I really don't know whats wrong with this

Hi Rob, I'm really confused, if I create a new action script project and use the code i posted I get this:
As you can see its not going from white to black, but instead it just looks grey - although there is a gradient, it looks like its massive or something :S I don't get it
Im using flash builder 4, I create a new action script project, in the as file I paste that code into the constructor and run the application.
ps.. yes i know about the alphas need to be 1, it was a typo when i posted this, setting them to 1 doesn't seem to be my issue. Any other ideas?

After the official 10.1 os update my bluetooth in car does not work like it used to.

***SORRY THIS IS CLONED of this http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Z10/In-car-bluetooth-not-working-properly-after-10...
New to forum sorry.
I have a BB Z10 and whenever I entered my vehicle the in-car bluetooth would connect/pair to the phone and the music which was great and had no problems with listening to music and making phone calls.
But recently with the 10.1 update it's all gone wrong the phone does not respond anymore to making calls, but the music still plays and I can still remote control the music via the steering wheel. however there is no call audio the call starts and it shows it being connected but no audio from the in car bluetooth.
Now I did some CSI investigations into the matter and I have narrowed it down to anything previous to the 10.1 update works fine.
I backed up the phone via BB link and then rolled back the updates and I found that 10.0.09.2372 works just fine with the in-car bluetooth with making calls and playing music I literally just tested this. I then installed the leaked 10.1.0.1880 hoping it was fixed but no improvement over the official 10.1 it still does not play call audio.
I have now reverted back to the official 10.1 and restored phone backup and then once again tried as before with all the pairing one has patience for, it just will not work in my car. I desperately need my Z10 to work in my car!
Is this issue going to be addressed very soon??? I am not the only one with this problem. Help anyone...
I would also like it that the music doesn’t start automatically as I have deezer and would like that to be an option to play that music instead.
Anyway thanks for your time... any help with who to contact or whatever would be appreciated.

Same problem with my z10 since 10.1 OS update. Please help.

HFP STILL NOT WORKING LIKE IT USED TO IN iOS7

When using iMaps turn by turn directions before iOS8, you could leave your car radio on an FM station and when a directions was spoken, it would stop the FM broadcast for a moment, speak the direction over the car's speakers and then go back to FM. Since iOS8, it won't do this. You can only hear the directions if you leave the radio on bluetooth. Is this going to be fixed?

Yes. When I click on it, it gives me volume control and output control. The output can be iphone or HandsFreeLink. When using HFL, it only works when my radio is tuned to bluetooth. It doesn't work when I use FM radio like I used to. I don;t want to keep my radio on bluetooth just to hear directions every now and then, I want to listen to the radio and have iMAPs break in when it needs to.

Safari just not working like it used to

I'll be the first to admit that I'm not on the leading edge with my software – I'm still running OS X 10.2.8 and Safari 1.0.3 on my Mirror Drive Door G4. But lately, Safari seems like it doesn't want to work with some web pages. For example, when I go to the Apple site, I get a big black void on the new iPhone landing page – I know there's supposed to be something there, but it's not showing up. On some other sites (particularly those using active server pages), some links are no longer clickable. Even Safari's pop-up blocker seems to get defeated more often lately. (For the record: I've got plug-ins, Java and Javascript enabled, and I'm always accepting cookies. I also clear the cache regularly and have cleaned up my permissions and preferences.) My current work-around is simply to browse troublesome pages in Firefox instead. But I'd like to continue using Safari.
Am I correct in suspecting that there's nothing wrong with my machine or software, but that web technology is changing rapidly and that Safari 1.0.3 is just obsolete? I realize that Apple's "Help" says to always use the latest version of Safari. For me, I guess that means purchasing Tiger or Leopard. Maybe I just need to bite the bullet? Thanks.
Power Mac G4 Mac OS X (10.2.x)

garp --
I understand your situation.
You would love Tiger, but given your current Jaguar
here's a list of basic cleaning up things to do.
Do these & report back, OK ?
1. Empty your cache & History settings via the Safari menu
2. Trash your Icons Folder:
HD>Users>Home>YourName>Library>Safari -->Icons
Restart Safari and a new folder will be automatically regenerated.
(This folder saves favicons of all the sites you visit. Needs cleaning periodically -- or you can change that file's preferences to "Read Only"
rather than "Read & Write." This will keep it from growing in size.)
3. Unfortunately, you don't have Font Book with Jaguar. Do you have a font manager? You might want to check for duplicate fonts on your Mac. By adding new apps & peripherals, extra fonts have been added, and you may have duplicates or font conflicts which can slow things down considerably.
Do not touch any fonts located in the HD>System>Library>Fonts folder.
Question for you: Do you have internet apps SpeedDownload, iGetter, PithHelmet, Acid Search, Safari Enhancer ? Or Norton or Virex? Sometimes non-apple internet apps need updating or uninstalling. If you do, let us know which ones and which version, please.
If you're still having problems:
4. Shut down your computer . . . unplug the computer, modem, and router, if you have one. Let everything sit for 2-3 minutes. Plug everything back in, start up your modem & router, then restart your computer.
Safari 1.0.3 is very old, and it is entirely possible that it's just not reading sites well. But if you do all of the above, at least it should be better.
Hope this helps

Keyboard backlight not working like it used to

For some reason my keyboard will not let me manually adjust the back light.
I tried unselecting the "illuminate in low light" in settings- but that doesn't help. And when I go back into preferences it shows as being selected again. How do I override the backlight so that I have full manual control in all lighting conditions?

Install Lab Tick.

Blue Tooth Stereo not working like it used to (Lollipop Upgrade)

I have an LG G3 - All around I really love this phone. However, last week the Lollipop OS came out and I upgraded it to that 5.0.1 OS. I now regret doing so and wish I could go back to the previous OS.
Here's my issue - The Bluetooth stereo no longer plays as it used to. Now if I try to play a song either through Spotify or the Music Player App I will get frequent interrupts to the song almost like the song is buffering. I don't experience this issue with phone calls and I have no problems with the receiving phone calls. I've tried clearing the system memory both on the stereo and the phone, and repaired the device but at most I get a minute of music before I get the interrupts again.
This is a huge flaw. My phone is my default device I use when I listen to music in my car and I've had to resort to using an AUX cable. And while that is a work around, I'd like my phone to operate as it did before the Lollipop upgrade.
If you could look into this Verizon Wireless Customer Support and get a fix or work or a way to revert to the old OS, I'd much appreciate it.
Thanks!

Hey there jordy1282! I loves me some Network Extender. I'm sorry that the reason you've come to share your experience with it is the result of there being a problem. Still, I'm happy to help! First, you mentioned that using the service in your home is almost like the extender isn't there at all. Have you tried disabling/turning off the device and trying to make calls using direct connection to our network? How's your home internet service working out? Any trouble with your broadband connection recently? Finally, what zip code are you in?

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

he advises restarting by inserting the OSX disc and pressing down the C button to reboot from there then selecting disk utility, hard disk and repair.... Does he mean me to hold down the C key on the alpha keyboard or the ctrl key?
Should I just ask for my money back??? If it is a simple repair do I just literally push the disc in, push the power button and hold down the C button?
That's where I would begin, too, with
Repair Disk
Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.TStatus of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it saysanything but Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need touse autility like TechTool Pro,Drive Geniusor DiskWarrior
First we need to determine if the issue you are experiencing with the computer is software or hardware based. Once we have gotten things sorted out there should be time enough to make you decision about keeping or returning it.

My iphone 3gs is not working how it used to it is slower and pising me off what can apple do for me?

my phone isnt working like it used to and what i mean by that is i get no service anywhere btw i have at&t i live in new york and i would just like to know what apple can do for me can they fix it or not or give me a better phone or something i would like to know

Why does Apple need to do anything for you?
Have you attempted any basic troubleshooting like reset, restart, restore?
Have you verified that the issue is your device and not just the service in your area or your SIM card?
Have you restored as new to eliminate the possibility that data on your device is not the problem?
Frankly, your post comes across as some jerk demanding the problem being fixed without any user intervention/assistance. Maybe that is not what you intended, but that is the way it comes across.

Logging for AS not working

Any ideas how to solve this issue ?

TS1541 I tried importing email addresses from gmail and now my address book is locked up and will not work. Help please.

I tried importing email addresses from gmail and now my address book is locked up and will not work. Do I need to delete my address book software and reinstall? If so, what is the proper way to do this? New to Macbook software. I have tried several things and nothing has helped. I have backed up photos, movies, etc. My addresses are on my iphone so I can sync them later right if I loose my data?
Thanks for your time and expertise,
T.

You can probably resolve this by removing some Address Book preference files rather than deleting your Address Book application.
First turn off Synchronize in Address Book Preferences if you can.
Next restart Address Book and try to export everything to your Desktop.
I have had a play and found my Address Book preference files. In the following ~/Library is the Library within your Home folder. Any numerals may differ on your Mac. Quit Address Book before doing anything with these.
1 - Display details and things set in Address Book Preferences
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist
2 - Has no data - not sure what this does
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.abd.plist
3 - Has last sync date - may have more if I used sync
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.AddressBook.sync.000393735c06.plist
4 - My contact details
/Library/Preferences/AddressBookMe.plist
5 - Individual addresses and groups stored as separate files within:
~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/Metadata
6 - All of these addresses are are also in this single database:
~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/AddressBook-v22.abcddb
If you wish to remove all addresses drag both 5 & 6 to your Desktop.
If you wish to reset preferences drag 1 your Desktop.
Removing 3 may resolve sync issues but I am unable to test this.
If you wish to reset everything drag all except 4 to your desktop.
Apple has an interesting page at: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2481
I hope this helps.
