Magic Mouse changes the values in dialog boxes

When working in Photoshop and saving files, I noticed that a sideways swipe on the Magic Mouse will change the values in dialog boxes. Unfortunately, it's a little too sensitive. When saving as JPEG and reaching for the keyboard to hit Return for OK, my hand will sometimes lightly brush against the mouse. This invariably has the effect of lowering the JPEG compression amount to zero and ruining the image, so I must turn this feature off or abandon this mouse. Is there a way to do so?

The horizontal scroll is a pain in the a$$ IMO and many others to. The way to disable it is to type (copy/paste) into a Termainal window the following command line (this is one line, it's shows wrapped due to the forum display layout):
defaults write com.apple.driver.AppleBluetoothMultitouch.mouse MouseHorizontalScroll -bool NO
Turn your mouse off and back on and you will then have no more horizontal scrolling.
To reenable the horizontal scroll change the No to YES in the command.
There's a little GUI application that can do this for you if you feel uncomfortable using terminal. It's called MagicMouse Scroll. You have to read the text there to dig out the download link so here's that download link for your convenience:
http://WWW.atomicsalad.com/other_files/MagicMouse%20Scroll%20Utility.dmg
You still have to turn your mouse off and back on to get the setting to take effect.

How I change the save image dialog box view from oldest to newest first as the default?

My save image dialog box has the oldest file in the folder in the upper left position (using list). I want to change it to the newest file shown first. It used to be that way, but now it showing oldest first. I haven't found any guidance on defaults for this box. Thanks.

Leave it to Apple. When I first got the phone, that's the way they were configured. Now that they've flipped around, there's now way to change it!

Changing the size of dialog boxes

Hi
I like a big dialog box so that I can see an extensive list of folders on the left. Instead of changing the shape of it manually any time I save, export, open, place, etc, I would like it to remain a certain size.
I discovered that if I close all my windows, open a new file, (change my dialog box in the process), save and close, the size of the dialog box remains the same.
However I have not figured out a way to do this for export and place. So I still have a small box for those tasks.
Can anyone suggest a way to define the size of the boxes??
thanks
Pete

I cannot change the value in about:newtab from "newtab" to "blank." The dialog is displayed but when I click Ok, the value is not changed.

Comment on usual method and solution, by a forum Moderator.
As long as there are no confounding factors, such as certain extensions, or a user.jsfile the procedure is as follows
# Open a new tab and type "about:config" in the address bar.
# In the Search bar type: "newtab"
# Locate and double click "browser.newtab.url"
# In the "Enter String Value" box change "'''about:newtab'''" to "'''about:blank'''" and click OK.
# Verify that the value has changed and now all new tabs will be blank.

Have to say that I rather agree with Mark..all we want is a simple, unadorned clean page that doe not track and show usage!! WHY NOT!! Is it too simple for developers..we aren't all (nor do we want to be!) software experts! Come on Mozilla..tidy up and clean up..it might be a quicker programme too!!

How do I change the dimensions of an image? The Image Size dialog box will not allow me to change it

How do I change the dimensions of an image? The Image Size dialog box will not allow me to change dimensions. I am taking an online class and the Image Size dialog box looks different than the one I am seeing in Photoshop CC. It has the option to change the dimensions.

When you say chage the dimentions, do you mean crop the image and adjust the size of the image at the same time, or do you mean you want to just resize the image? Can you post a screen shot of what you're trying to do?

I would like to use the windows explorer open dialog box instead of the adobe open dialog box. How can I change that?

I would like to use the windows explorer open dialog box instead of the adobe open dialog box. How can I change that?

The top screenshot is the Windows Open dialog box. All File > Open... commands in all Windows programs bring it up. Try File > Open in Notepad for example.
It belongs to Windows not Adobe. You cannot change this because there is no such thing as an Adobe Open dialog box.
The bottom screenshot is Windows Explorer. It is Windows' OS File Browser, not an Open dialog. It is not called up by Photoshop or any Windows program.
You have to click on "My Computer" or a Folder icon to get to it. You can double-click a psd, jpeg or other image file in the Explorer window so that it opens in Photoshop.
There is Adobe Bridge and Minibridge Alt + Ctrl + O or File > Browse in Bridge

IDCS3: Can't enter values into dialog boxes

I've just started using InDesign CS3 on an Intel Mac, having been using CS2 on a G5. When I try to enter a value into a dialog box, nothing happens. The dialog box refuses to accept any inputted value. If I use the up/down arrows, I can change the value but only in whole increments. I can't, for instance, place an item 10.5mm from the page edge. It has to be 10 or 11mm.
The same is true of any dialog box for any value.
Has anyone else experienced this very frustrating issue?
Thanks.

I guess I need to clarify my situation. I was using the wrong terminology. When I talk about "dialog boxes" I mean the palettes like the Control Panel, Paragraph, Character, Stroke, etc. I can't type into any of them. If I put the cursor in, say, the X pos text box and hit tab (to go to the Y pos text box) all that happens is that all the palettes are hidden. It's like I can't get any focus at all in the palette text boxes.
Sorry about the confusion.
This problem isn't limited to my machine, it happens on any of our networked Macs running CS3, so I think the problem may be related to something else, possibly the Suitcase Server. But there's no way I can confirm this. I was hoping someone else had had the same problem and discovered a solution.
Cheers.

How to disabled the input parameter dialog box in crystal reports 9

Post Author: Murtaza
CA Forum: General
Hi friends,I have got stuck with a weird problem. In my
crystal report, I have set up some input parameters. I am setting
values for these parameters somewhere inside code. But I don't
want to show the default input parameter dialog box. Under any case,
user should not see the ugly parameter dialog box that crystal
presents. Please suggest me how I can achieve
this. I cannot do this through code, because our environment does
not allow that. I have to do this in crystal reports viewer and
by setting some property of the crystal report object. But everything
must be done on UI, not through code. So, the solution should not be the following.
// step before step 1
// **** the line needs to refer to the report and be set before setting
ReportSource in the viewer to myReport
myReport.EnableParameterPrompting = False
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Murtaza

Hi Murtaza,
Unfortunately, I am not aware of any method to suppress the prompt for the input parameters, but still use them. It is truly a design-related issue for the report. The reason that the prompt appears is because the parameter it is prompting for is used in the report; in particular either the Group or Record Selection, or referenced in another formula.
The only way I can think of to not show the prompt, is to not use the parameter in the report. You did mention that you are setting the value of the parameter inside of the report -- are you doing this through using a formula? Perhaps you can just remove the parameter and only use the formula that you are setting the default values with.

How do I force Firefox (6v02) to stop showing thumbnails of existing file(s) in the save-as dialog box?

I save files associated with similar objects using similar names (just a different extension, or numeric sequence). The save-as dialog box shows a list of existing files. When I choose one, with the intention of changing the file extension or the numeric sequence (e.g., choose 'file001.jpg' in order to rename the new file to be saved 'file002.mpg') the thumbnail associated with the one I select is shown on the right. I neither want nor need this time-consuming & memory-consuming process to take place. I would like to be able to disable this feature in order to allow me to do what I want directly and faster (P3/866MHz/512MB).

Perhaps, but the problem is I don't really know what to look for. I've tried doing a keyword search of the AIprefs file to find where ICC profiles and compression could be located but I couldn't find anything. Does anyone know what they are called and what I should modify?

The Where in the save as dialog box

The Where in the save as dialog box is frustratingly limiting is there a way to change this so I can browse to the folder I want?

I recommend you get Default Folder. I've considered it a must have utility for my systems since OS9 Classic days. It greatly helps in navigation for the ever deficient file dialogs in OSX (and OS9).

On a MBP with Mavericks how do I get the Save As dialog box to open at the same size and place at which it was last closed and used to happen before Mavericks?

Before I upgraded my MBP to Mavericks, the Save As dialog box would reopen at the same size and position as it was when last closed. Now with Mavericks it always opens in the same position at a very small size. Is there a way to make it reopen at the last place and size at which it was closed?

I have resolved the issues presented without having to find and uninstall the Macromedia Flash Player 8.0 in order to get "Adobe Flash Player 10" playback of .swf files on my computer. When I begin this task, I expected to download an "Adobe Flash Player 10" as a player program download instead of the Internet Explorer and Firefox plugin that it appears to be.
This is what I did and what I believe I have:
1. I setup Internet Explorer 6 as my default browser and then used the following site to download Adobe Flash Player 10
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/
2. As I had done before (and also suggested in another thread here), I went to Tools/Manage Add Ons and found Shockwave Flash Object, highlighted it, and clicked on Update Active X. Next, what I did not do before, I restarted the computer immediately after that.
3. Next, I set Mozilla Firefox as my default browser and then used the above site to download Adobe Flash Player 10 again.
4. With Firefox, the critical step included Firefox Tools/Options/Content with File Types (Configure how Firefox handles certain types of files) and the Manage Tab there. SWF Shockware Flash Object/Change Action/and dotting "use this plugin" - Shockwave Flash, followed by a computer restart got the job done.
Now, if I want playback of a .swf file, I can
a. Open With Internet Explorer (assumed with the Adobe Flash 10 "plugin")
b. Open With Mozilla Firefox (assumed with the Adobe Flash 10 "plugin")
c. Open With Macromedia Flash Player 8.0
I am satisfied with those results for my use. Any additional comments on the player vs plugin aspect of the matter would be interesting and helpful.

Should the web page address be included in the file name in the meta data dialog box?

In the page properties > meta data > below is a field with the label file name: (the the area to type in the field), after the field, it is labeled .html.
I have 2 questions here.
1. If I type in http//:www (my page url), do I include .html at the end? I didn't know if this is automatically added because it is off to the side of the field?
2. If I type in the entire URL address: http//:www (etc, etc).html, after closing the page properties dialog box, I make it a habit to double check my work. What happens is the http//:www.xxx changes to (htttpwww.xxx). It drops the //: on the URL.
So would it be better to just type in www.xxx (without the http//:www.xxx)
and do you type in the .html at the end?
I am assuming this will help with SEO page ranking or at least makes it easier for the search engines to crawl your site??
I hope this makes sense.
Advise would be very helpful.
Ben

You are absolutely correct with the URL Ben. Taking your above example, you just need to type in "Services" in the file name and the webpage will be exported as services.html and the URl will be www.xyz.com/services.html.
All the webpages (be it parent page or child page) gets physically saved at the root directory of your website on the server (where your website resides).
This name is just the name of the file using which it is physically stored and called from the server. It does not help search Engines to crawl deeper inside the website.
As I explained, "name which you wants the .html file to be stored with" here means the name of the physical file which is getting saved on the server.
Most users leave the file name same as Page name. If you have it different from page name then this will be the workflow :
Page Name : About
File Name : test
domain : www.mysite.com
Now if you are using a Menu Widget, it will list "About" in the Menu. And when end user will click on "About" then it will call the file named "test.html" from the server location (where all the files of your website are stored).
And it will open a page with address "www.mysite.com/test.html"
Hope I am able to explain the concept of File Name here. Please let us know if you have further queries on this.

Sachin

Hi Hasan,
According to your description, my understanding is that the multi text column with append mode is not working fine in your SharePoint 2010.
For reproducing your scenario, I created a new custom list , turned on its version feature and added a multi text column with append mode. But it was working fine when I change the values of both the
multi text column and other columns.
For your issue, could you create a new list to verify the multi text column with append mode works correctly.

Eric
