Logic "Scroll in Play" Display Bug

Logic is exhibiting a mild yet very annoying display bug. I first reported it on Jan. 12, 2010 here:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10892868#10892868
I am still plagued by this problem on my 8-core, 3GHz Mac Pro. I was about to purchase a new video card hoping that would cure it. Now, however, after trying it on a different Mac (dual core iMac), I was able to reproduce the problem. It's a Logic bug; not a problem with my hardware.
The problem, specifically, occurs when "Scroll in Play" is enabled and a multi-track tune is played (I'm using all MIDI tracks). Every so often (perhaps every 10 bars), some artifacts appear on the display. They appear to be image fragments that were somehow improperly reproduced. Below is an example.
Note that part of the bar number is improperly reproduced. Now, I have seen this bug on both a Mac Pro and a dual-core iMac. I certainly would like to see this problem fixed.

Erik -
I have noticed this most while tracking/recording (and not editing) - is there a way around that? Frankly, it FEELS like a bug - I turn it on, it turns itself off again - REPEAT.
Thaks for the response by the way!
You're welcome, Pete.
What I meant is: the turning-off-when-editing is by design, the turning-off-when-touching-nothing is a bug, and the only thing that works for me is to zoom out the affected window a little.

Old Sample Rate Display Bug Rears Ugly Head in Logic 7

This bug has been around since Logic 4. I see it now in 7.1.1... (RANT: This drives me absolutely nuts, especially when trying to troubleshoot clocking problems.)
OK, my system = Logic 7, MOTU 424 PCI card connected to old MOTU 2408
1) Boot Logic (autoload song is saved at 48 KHz sampling rate)
2) Select File/Song Settings/Syncronization, then select the Audio tab
3) The sampling rate shown in this window is 44.1 (should say 48, yes?)
4) With that window still visible, change the sample rate to 44.1 (via Audio/Sample Rate menu item). Sample rate display doesn't change (appears correctly).
5) Now change the sample rate back to 48K. Sample rate display now shows 48K, but with about an -8% deviation.
Basically, Logic never shows the 48K sampling rate correctly in this window -- it always displays this deviation.
I can confirm this is a display bug, since a 44.1 file and a 48K file loaded into the same session will play back correctly at their respective sample rates.
Has anyone else seen this?

bump...
Would like to know if anyone else sees the above-described behavior. Cheers!

Feature Request: Voice Separation Tool during Scroll in Play

Have been using the voice separation tool to make coherent piano parts after being played in via midi. Ideally it would be great if Logic had some 'intelligent sensor' which automatically detected the "logic" of what left and right hand would do.
It gets really tedious dragging the Voice Separator tool through the piano score especially if it is a long part, so I had the idea to try and use View>Scroll in Play NOT in Page edit mode but with the score running in a straight band across the screen. I figured if you slow the tempo down a bit you might be able to hold the voice separation tool in one place on the screen and 'surf' or skateboard between the notes separating them just by slight adjustment of the mouse as the notes flow by.
Unfortunately this doesnt work because even though you are scrolling in play with the tool, as soon as you click the mouse to make it active, it 'undoes' the connection causes Logic's score to update with the sequencer.
Is there an outside chance of a way around this? ie some unknown linking of windows etc - I would really appreciate a few tips from anyone who has regularly made piano parts with the Voice Separation tool
MS

I don't know if this would help, but for piano parts I've given up using the voice separation tool, cool though it is. Instead, I start with the stock Piano score style (L7 terminology) and adjust the split point to get a reasonable result. Then I select all the notes in the bass clef and hit them with the "+" key (my k/command assignment used to increment event channel +1). This is a very fast operation. Then I alter the existing Piano style by setting treble to ch. 1 and bass to ch. 2. At this point you won't see a change in the score, but now you know that bass notes are "hard-assigned" to the bass clef.
Go through the part again, selecting notes that should be in the bass staff and hit them with +1 to move them down to the the proper staff.
If the part requires more than 2 independent voices (or more than L/R hand), I add additional polyphonic voices to that Piano style as needed (each set to unique MIDI channels) and go through the part in one more pass, selecting notes and assigning them to the appropriate MIDI channel. Using the key commands for "event channel + 1" and "event channel -1", assigned to the "+" and "-" keys makes quick work of this kind of thing.

Photoshop CS4 Menu toolbar display bug and fullscreen slowness...

http://img384.imageshack.us/img384/8202/menutoolsbugee3.gif
I'm having a display bug with the menu toolbar in Photoshop CS4 Extended. Notice the area of tools is gone and replaced by random pixels? This happens whenever I enter the fullscreen mode that hides the interface. And when I exit that fullscreen mode, that bug appears and doesn't fix itself until I restart Photoshop. Can this be fixed?
Image view rotation also happens much slower than normal in that fullscreen mode when interface is hidden. But performs normally after I bring back the interface.
I'm on WinXP, Athlon 64 4000+, 3GB ram, GeForce 6800 GT video card [driver 169.21]. I'm not sure if this is a video driver bug or CS4 bug.

Yeah, Dave, I can understand how that can happen. I've seen that sort of weirdness when I've seriously overtaxed my hardware.
 
 Had way too much running all at once yesterday, switched over to Firefox, and clicking on folders in the Bookmarks bar, I had 4 bookmark/folder menus dropped simultaneously.
 
 I managed to grab a screenshot with 2 of them showing, but man! You shoulda seen it with 4!
 
 I ESC'ed out, quit GarageBand (had a song project of several hundred MB going) and all was fixed.

Minor display bug in JDev 11g "View Annotation" with Subversion

Hi all,
A very minor visual display issue with the "View Annotations" feature of JDev 11g when using a Subversion repository. To reproduce, simply follow these steps:
1). Open up any source file and right-click in the editor; select Versioning -> View Annotation. The annotations will be shown, and if you right-click again, you will see a check-mark next to the "View Annotation" menu item.
2). Open another source file. Annotations are not shown. Right-click in the editor; you will see that "View Annotation" menu item displays a check-mark (even though annotations are not shown). Select Versioning -> View Annotation. Annotations are now shown, but you will see the check-mark is no longer displayed.
To summarize my analysis; it appears that "View Annotation" was intended to be a global setting (as indicated by the check-mark), but is actually implemented on a file-by-file basis. Obviously a very minor display bug not affecting functionality, but a bug nonetheless.

Odd desktop/display bug - how to reset user display settings?

Greetings all,
I woke up yesterday morning to a puzzling problem with my G5. I logged in and started working - and I needed to use the windows remote desktop client to shell into a machine at work. I noticed that the fonts looked sort of funny (randomly quished) so I logged out and then back in. Then I noticed that the problem was not in the RDC display, but in the display of my mac.
This is sort of hard to describe w/out actually seeing it, but here goes...
When I move my mouse across the desktop (or what ever apps I have open) and the mouse pointer moves across and invisible (yet perceptible) line on my screen real estate, my background, icons, parts of displayed apps and fonts "shift". This causes fonts in the affected are to get messed up and causes general display irritation. That's the best way I can describe it, it's sort of a "you have to see it" problem. I will also note that this problem did not arise after an update or a software install or weird crash. Just another day.
So first I tried messing with my display settings (change resolution, color profiles, setting the background to a solid color, turning off screen saver). Rebooting. Nothing. Still there.
So next I log into another account (the root account). Ah ha! No display problems! Tried creating another user-level account. No problems there either. Now we're getting somewhere - it's something that is effecting my main user account and not a problem with my monitor, video card or OS. That's good.
So since then I've tried:
- Grooming the disc that my home directory lives on with DiskWarrior.
- Repaired permissions.
- Deleting the contents of home/Library/Fonts in case it's some funky font rendering issue causing this.
- Deleted the contents of home/Library/Preferences/MicroSoft to get any of its potential badness out of my life.
- Scanning with FontDoctor looking for bad fonts.
- Deleted my desktop and finder plist files.
- General maintenance and cache cleaning (including the MS font cache) with Onyx.
- Booting to Safe Mode.
Nothing. The display problem persists afflicting that one user account. All other accounts (root, and a second user-level account residing on the same disc) are free of these problems even though they are all using the same display settings (monitor, resolution, color profiles, etc). And as already noted, this problem was not "brought on" by anything like an update, installation, preferences modification or fatal seeming crash of an app.
So, my question to all you good people is: what am I missing, what might be causing this and what else can be scrubbed from that account (cache, plist files, etc etc) that might be harboring and causing this display bug? I would really rather solve this problem than go through the very very arduous task of moving all of my stuff to another account (an option, but a very unattractive one).
I was not a mac user during the OS 9 days, but I remember my co-workers doing the "rebuilding the desktop" dance. I realize that this is no longer an issue, but I guess I'm looking for something like that. I need to remove any and everything from my user account that has anything to do with display and font rendering since it's obviously some setting lurking in that account causing the issue.
I googled and searched the forums for this yesterday but could not come up with anything like it and all of the maintenance tasks I tried have not worked.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Monte
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Hi.
What kind of G5 do you have? An iMac or a PowerMac?
A PowerMac.
If you own a PowerMac, you'd better take a look (o
try with another one) at the DVI cable connecting the
display.
I did check my connections, but also, why would a faulty DVI cable only cause problems with a single user account and none of the others?
If you want to reset the display settings, start in
Safe Mode, and trash these files:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist
/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.a
pple.windowserver.some_number.plist
If I were at home now, I would try and report back. But I'm not. I'll definitely give it a try as soon as I can. Thanks for the pointer!
Cheers,
M

IPhoto - Hidden Photos - Events Thumbnail Display Bug

_*iPhoto - Hidden Photos - Events Thumbnail Display Bug*_
iPhoto 08 contains a bug affecting the display of images that the user has marked as "hidden." Specifically, when the user toggles the View-Hidden Photos menu option, the Library-Events thumbnail view does not refresh quickly or reliably to show or hide Events containing "hidden photos."
Sometimes all "hidden" photos remain visible when they should be hidden.
Sometimes all "hidden" photos remain INvisible when they should be visible.
This affects the Event thumbnail "key photo" if this photo was designated as hidden.
This also affects any hidden Event photos when the user "skims" over an Event thumbnail to preview its contents.
The issue is isolated to Events thumbnails. The problem does not exist:
a) while browsing thumbnails inside a specific Event.
b) while browsing photos in Library-Photos.
c) while browsing photos in an Album.
_*"Fixes" that do NOT work:*_
Software updates... I have the latest version of OSX 10.5.2 and the latest version of iPhoto 08, including all the recent security and graphics system updates as of 02/16/2008.
Maintenance... The issue is NOT resolved by rebuilding the database, rebuilding icons, or deleting the iPhoto preferences file. The issue can be reproduced in a separate user account after creating a new event in an otherwise empty iPhoto database.
After much tinkering around, the following is the closest I've come to a
_*TEMPORARY WORKAROUND:*_
To *NOT DISPLAY* hidden images, go to the View menu and make sure Hidden Photos *is not* checked. Restart iPhoto, and the hidden images should now be invisible.
To DISPLAY hidden images, go to the View menu and make sure Hidden Photos is checked. While the hidden images are now visible elsewhere, they may still be invisible in Events thumbnails, so restart iPhoto, and then wait about 10 seconds for the Events view to refresh with all the hidden thumbnail images now visible.
If after carefully reading this you feel you have a definitive solution, please post a reply with your suggestions. Otherwise, please post to confirm if you can reproduce the problem on your computer running iPhoto 08 on Leopard. If so, please also file an official bug report with Apple. The more people report this, the faster we'll get it fix.

My Acrobat Pro 9 has also this bug. I am using XP SP2. I have reported this bug at Adobe web site many times. I wrote to the Adobe customer care. I wrote about this on many different forums and I was hopping an update with this bug fixed. I installed all updates till now bu the problem still exists. I do not know why Adobe is not caring about this stupid bug. It is really, really annoying. In my experience with Adobe Acrobat for about 10 years, Acrobat version 9 is the worst version I ever worked with. There are a lot of glitches and bugs in it, expecially with fonts, web version creation, password protection encryption etc etc.
If you find any fix please post back on this forum.
Many thanks,

Aperture 3 Display Bug and Export to Flickr Bug

Has anyone else experienced this issue, and if so what systems do you have and what graphics card are you using?
The issue is the way images are displayed in Aperture. There seems to have been a change in the anti-aliasing between 2 and 3 so than now images with strong highlights display nasty aliasing artefacts and black ringing around highlight edges. It's as if Images are being over-sharpened. Also, when you first move to an Image it displays perfectly fine while it’s loading then when it’s finished it pops into the over sharp aliased version.
I'm having this issue on my iMac 24" running a ATI RadeonHD2600. It seems to only show when the onscreen display is zoomed out to 25% or less. If you go to fullscreen the artefacts disappear on landscape oriented images but remain on portrait. If you zoom in, once you pass a certain zoom factor they disappear.
I have posted some samples of the artefacts here - as well as what they should look like.
http://www.thomas-fitzgerald.net/2010/04/28/aperture-3-is-really-ticking-me-off/
and here
http://theapertureblog.com/2010/03/29/aperture-display-bug/
The bigger issue is that when exporting using the built in fickr tool it uses the same antialiasing and so over sharpens and degrades images the same way.
The problem is not always apparent and it really only shows with images containing high contrast areas, particularly if they clip to white. I would really like to know if this is limited to certain graphics cards as I've talked to someone who has this issue when using the faster gfx card on their macbook pro but not when they turn on the slower one.
If I need to upgrade my mac to make this issue go away then so be it but I'd really like to hear form others who may have seen it?

I have had issues with Aperture's anti-aliasing performance in the Viewer since version 1.5.
To summarize, Aperture's Viewer produces quite jagged edges from Canon RAW files compared to Preview's and Lightroom's renderings of the exact same files. There doesn't seem to be any radical improvements with the 3.x upgrades, and aliasing performance didn't seem to be affected by the updates to Apple's Canon RAW converter (I reprocessed). Images that I had a problem with are still problematic.
I thought that [this thread|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=669881&tstart=0] referring to Aperture 1.5 laid out the issues pretty clearly and I was surprised at how little other users were affected by it (or so I infer from the number of responses.)
Until your post I had not looked specifically at Aperture 3.x. I haven't been able to exactly reproduce the issues I had (so many versions ago...) in Aperture 1.5 and it seems the situation has improved a bit.
Aperture still produces a much sharper rendering than Preview, though the aliased edges are not as prominent. To recap from Aperture 1.5:
!http://homepage.mac.com/steve_hoge/.Pictures/AliasedApertureRender.tiff!
And here's what I see in Aperture 3 on the same image:
!http://homepage.mac.com/steve_hoge/.Pictures/aliasedA3.tiff!
Which looks about the same to me on near-horizontal lines, but much better on the high-contrast vertical lines (check upper left corner of the frame).
And today's Preview 5.0.2 rendering of the RAW image is even softer and less contrast-y than back in the day:

Adobe forms - No scroll bar for Display only fields

I am using adobe forms for SAP Enterprise Portal. i am using these in Worklfows. In the form there is a text field with no size limit and Allows Multiple Lines. Any amount of text is allowed to be entered. when the form is viewed by the next person, the script in the form make the field as read only. This is as expected.
Problem: If there are multiple lines the scroll bar does not appear for the field. Entire content is not visible. Printout of the form prints the entire text from the field. In edit mode the scroll bar is displayed!!

Af:table Scroll bars not displayed in IE11 for large number of rows

Hi. I'm using JDeveloper 11.1.2.4.0.
The requirements of our application are to display a table potentially displaying very large numbers of rows (sometimes in excess 3 million). While the user does not need to scroll through this many rows, the QBE facility allows drill-down into specific information in the rowset. We moved up to JDeveloper 11.1.2.4.0 primarily so IE11 could be used instead of IE8 to overcome input latency in ADF forms.
However, it seems that IE11 does not enable the vertical or horizontal scroll bars for the af:table component when the table contains greater than (approx) 650,000 rows. This is not the case when the Chrome browser is used. Nor was this the case on IE8 previously (using JDev 11.1.2.1.0).
When the table is filtered using the QBE (to a subset < 650,000 rows), the scroll bars are displayed correctly.
In the code the af:table component is surrounded by an af:panelCollection component which is itself surrounded by an af:panelStretchLayout component.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how this behaviour can be corrected? Is it purely a browser problem, or might there be a programmatic workaround in ADF?
Thanks for your help.

Thanks for your response. That's no longer an option for us though...
Some further investigation into the generated HTML has yielded the following information...
The missing scroll bars appear to be as a consequence of the setting of a style for the horizontal and vertical scroll bars (referenced as vscroller and hscroller in the HTML). The height of the scrollbar appears to be computed by multiplying the estimated number of rows in the iterator on which the table is based by 16 to give a scrollbar size proportional to the amount of data in the table, although it is not obvious why that should be done for the horizontal scroller. If this number is greater than or equal to 10737424 pixels then the scroll bars do not display in IE11.
It would seem better to be setting this height to a sensible limiting number of pixels for a large number of rows?
Alternatively, is it possible to find where this calculation is taking place and override its behaviour?
Thanks.

Coverflow issue-"Now Playing" Displays correct picture, Coverflow-another

I'm having trouble finding a viable solution if it's already been resolved...
ITunes 7.5 Latest updates, Library completely re-created and still persists, Cache removed, New Machine build...blah, blah, blah....
Coverflow displays an incorrect picture and is not the "Now Playing" picture (which is correct)
Any resolutions?

Coverflow displays the artwork associated with the first track of the album (and thus the entire album); Now Playing displays the artwork associated with the current track. At a guess, I'd say you changed the artwork for some, but not all, of the album's tracks.
