Make Hide Frame Edges the DEFAULT?

I almost never want to see the frame edges of any object I'm not currently manipulating. Seeing all those edges is super annoying and distracting. Sure, you can make a shortcut, but having a doc open with it hidden as default would obviously be preferred.

So what has changed your mind? With the new auto-align features, it seems even less useful to show edges.
I've never understood how people could work without 'em. How do you know where things are?
(One reason why I like frame edges: some of my clients are apt to draw huge frames for tiny images, or to re-use the same frame over and over for all content, so I get a great deal of spurious suggested auto-alignments whenever I move an object across the page.)

The new "Show and hide frame edges" is buggy and needless.

i have a card layout design and its irritating to see the blue outline on every block.Morever it doesnt even hide if i give any stroke.why do i need to preview everytime to see the real design.

Buggy and needless? You are sure, you use them correctly?
If you hide frame edges, they are hidden until you hover over an object. In this case, frame borders of this single object are temporarily displayed. This is working perfectly here.
What is not working on your machine? And why this is "useless"?

Hide Frame Edges CS3 Tiger G5 processor

Everything I have read seems to indicate that COMMAND+H does not hide frame edges, it hides the entire INDD CS3 app. BUT this is only happening while running Leopard 10.5 on an intel processor machine.
It is happening to me running Tiger 10.4, G5 processor.
What is troubling is that the view menu still shows COMMAND+H is the hide frame edges command. It does not show CONTROL+COMMAND+H as this forum indicated.
NOW the keyboard shortcuts under the edit meny shows CONTROL+COMMAND+H is the hide indesign key command.
So what I have going on is indesign hides when I do a COMMAND+H AND it hides when I do a CONTROL+COMMAND+H!
SO HOW DO I HIDE FRAME EDGES USING A KEYBOARD COMMAND?

Well I did go through the menus and that's what spurred my question.
The VIEW menu states that the keyboard shortcut "COMMAND+H" toggles hide/show frame edges but is does not. It hides the entire application.
"W+SELECTION Tool" works ok if "show frame edges" is already toggled on.
I need to see where the frame edges are for non stroked TEXT boxes in a customer supplied file.
I'd like to be able to toggle show/frame edges on/off without mousing and have the guides toggled off. Perhaps the "W" thing will work and I'll try it but the "COMMAND+H" shortcut is still wrong. CS2 works fine, what the view menu shows in CS3 is wrong. Same machine has both applications loaded so it is not an OS/processor issue. Appears to be an oversite in the CS3 application.
NEWS FLASH
I just found that if I do an OPTION+COMMAND+H, the finder and all other applications will hide, I can then immediately do a COMMAND+H to show/hide Frame edges. If I go to the finder or other application then back to indesign the "hide indesign" behavior takes place.
So it looks like I must first hide all other active applications (OPTION+COMMAND+H), then toggle the frames using the COMMAND+H.

Can you make "Remember Playback Position" the default?

I mostly listen to audiobooks. When I take a CD and rip it, I always have to change the Option to "Remember Playback Position." After a few thousand times, this becomes tiresome. Is there any way to make "Remember Playback Position" the default option in iTunes? I am using iTunes 11.0.2.

For Snow Leopard and below (don't know for Lion) there is a free preference pane called RCDefaultApp that has all your file associations in one easy to manage location, includes tons of stuff, even controlling what gets opened when you click a link on a web page. Webcam and other associations. The Get Info method also works for your immediate need.

Hi janekieschninck,
If the printer is currently set to perform duplex (2-sided) printing, you can turn off the setting by deselecting the option in the printer driver. Please follow the instructions at the link below associated with your operating system to find where the duplex feature is located for your operating system:
Duplex printing - Mac
Duplex printing - Windows
Hope this helps!

Hide Frame edges

Done my research, the default command for Tiger and Leopard to hide window is the same as the InDesign command (CMD h) for hide/show frame edges. Has anyone figured out how to disable the OS default? I cannot find it in the System Preference > Keyboard and Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts.

>I do find it a little unnerving that common responses to InDesign's bad choices in programming to be "Why do you need to do that, why not".
As opposed to what response I wonder. Those that don't know "the answer" had better shut it? I say better to give alternative advice. You won't believe the [nice people] that come here looking for God knows what, and get pissed when offered alternatives, as if filtering out those "nebulous" responses is so tough. One wonders how they handle spam.
And just to be clear: command-h hides your app, and command control h hides your frame edges, right? No overlap. Command n no longer makes a new folder. Command u no longer ungroups. Command m no longer makes an alias. The list goes on. Things fall apart. The center cannot hold.

How can I disable Pages 5.1 and make 4.0.3 the default again?

Does anyone know how to disable Pages 5.1 so that it NEVER opens a doc again unless I somehow re-enable it?
I don't want to delete it in case someone sends me a tainted 5.1 Pages doc. Plus I'm sure if I DO delete it, it will keep showing up like a bad penny when I run the software updater which is nearly equally anoying.
I have tried doing a "get info" on a pages doc and selecting "open with pages 4.0.3" then clicked on "Change All" to make it the default app. This worked on my initial install of Mavericks but after doing some updates, the system will no longer obey the "change all" and insists on opening new pages files with 5.1. I've even tried changing the name of the app, but OSX is not so easily fooled and still opens the doc with the renamed app.

Bury it a couple of folders down in Applications or simply archive (zip) it.

btw You seriously need to update iWork '09 to v4.3

How to make "Show All" folders the default in Finder

I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and I'm having a lot of problems customizing my Finder folders to my liking. I love the new "Arrange By..." function, but the only thing that's bothering me is having to manually click "Show All" for my folders and files every time. Is there any way of making this the default setting?
If not, is there an alternative way for keeping my folders locked in a set order? For example if I have the a main folder and within it are the subfolders "Art" "Music" "Photos" "Misc" can I have them so they always show up in that order and won't rearrange themselves everytime I add new files into the folder?
I hope that question makes sense.
I am referring to that Show All button just to be clear

How to make a custom template the default for Apple Mail (10.7.5)?

Hi,
I'm OK with making a new custom template in Apple Mail. It shows up fine once under "custom" in the stationary pane (and once I take off signature in a new email). But... that's a lot of trouble to go through everytime I want to send an email.
So the question is: can I make my custom template my default for all my emails, unless I want to manually change it? Seems like this should be possible but I can't figure it out and haven't run into any solutions (only on how to make a template).
Do I really have to select it each time?
Best,
Joel

As an FYI: I just solved the problem by going the "low road." I'll be a bit laborious in case someone else wants a solution at a later date (I know I Googled the topic and found nothing). I experimented by simply:
Opening a new email message
Selecting my custom template
Copying the custom signature (Select All)
Opening another new email message
Selecting Edit on the Signature pulldown menu
Hitting the plus symbol to create/add a new signature in the pane
Pasting into the new signature
Naming it
Selecting "Choose signature" at the bottom of the signatures pane
And violà!!
It now appears as a possible selection *and* as the default.
Better yet - it is now my default and will work as a reply to an email.
I think I got it all right in the list above.
OK, granted, this is a pretty simply signature - a list of my website, SoundCloud, twitter etc with those names in bold and a graphic of my color logo - but... it works! YMMV.
Give it to Apple to make it so simple that any fool could do it (that would be me), you wouldn't need a "specialized" app, and - of course - there wouldn't even be instructions on how to do it!
Best,
Joel
