Mouse Pointer resizes when applying pointer style to all

When Captivate records my SW demo, it uses up to three different mouse pointer styles at different times (Haven't quite figured out what the protocol is).  I really don't like this and would like only one style used (the hand).  So when I right click on the hand pointer on a slide, and choose "Use the current mouse pointer for all slides," any pointer that was automatically changed to the hand pointer is much smaller (shrinked by 50%) and I still have to end up manually selecting the hand pointer for each one.
Does anyone know why this is happening?
Is there a way to select a default or standard pointer to be used at all times?
TIA,
Vicky

Here's the shortest code with the problem I could come up with.... You can run it if you create two different default paragraph styles: 'Product - Description' and 'Product - Title No Indent';
The problem is that the first line should have 'Product - Description' style, but it instead it gets 'Product - Title No Indent'.
If I comment out one of the paragraphs, everything works fine. What's wrong?
var doc = app.documents.add(),
    product, text_frame, i, l;
product = {
    'text': [
            'style': 'Product - Description',
            'text': 'Designed for monitoring sterilization processes.'
            'style': 'Product - Title No Indent',
            'text': 'Designed for monitoring sterilization processes.'
            'style': 'Product - Description',
            'text': 'Designed for monitoring sterilization processes.'
text_frame = doc.pages[0].textFrames.add();
text_frame.geometricBounds = [ '0pt', '0pt', '240pt', '300pt'];
for ( i = 0, l = product.text.length; i < l; i++ ) {
    text_frame.contents += "\r" + product.text[i].text;
    text_frame.parentStory.paragraphs[-1].appliedCharacterStyle = doc.characterStyles[0];
    text_frame.parentStory.paragraphs[-1].applyParagraphStyle(
        doc.paragraphStyles.item( product.text[i].style )

  • Applying object style to all objects in a project?

    In Cp4, it was possible to change the style of an object and then apply those changes throughout the entire project.
    How is this accomplished in Cp5?
    I have set up a default style for captions but it seems like I can only change the style of individual captions (one at a time) in the properties of each caption.
    Is there a hidden "apply to all" feature in Cp5?
    Thank you

    Hello Lilybiri,
    I really tried to follow your example but it simply did not work for me.
    >Supposing  I already have a lot of Text Captions and decide to change their style,  which can include font,
    >caption style, alignment, colors....
    Yes.
    >All  Text Captions up to that moment did use the Default Caption Style as it  was set in
    >the Object Style Manager...
    >If you want to change object styles for future projects you  have to set them in the
    >Object Style Manager without any project opened.
    This is problem one. I have one standard caption style for all my courses. I have changed the default in the Object Style Manager with and without a project opened. The change simply doesn't stick! Additionally, I have exported a new style to a .cps.
    Let me pick through your instructions:
    1. First, I open a project.
    2. I open the Object Style Manager and notice that the default caption style is back to the original Adobe default (Adobe blue).
    3. I import my new caption style. The style is called NewTextCaptionStyle.
    4. On the first slide, I select the first text caption (in Adobe Blue).
    >I then change one Text Caption  to  the new style and a + sign appears next to the
    >Default Caption Style as you can see in the screenshot.
    How do you come to that?  The moment I go to the first slide and select the first text caption, it already shows: "+[Default Caption Style]" I have not changed the caption style yet. If I select my desired caption style (NewTextCaptionStyle) from the pull down menu, there is no "+" symbol. I cannot follow this step.
    In an attempt to interpret your instructions, I went back to the Object Style Manager and changed the default caption style to what I need.
    Okay, now the [Default Caption Style] is exactly what I require.
    Back at the first slide, I select the first caption (which is still Adobe Blue). Now, I can follow your first step.
    >There are 2 quick ways to proceed now:
    >1. If  you will not use the original Default Caption Style anymore in this  project (it will have no consequences
    >for other projects), use the Save  icon (yellow highlighted) to save the changes and have a new
    >Default  Caption Style that will automatically be applied to all Text Captions  that are already created and
    >new Text Captions will get the same style  too.
    I will follow your first method.
    1. I select the Save icon. [Save Changes to Existing Style]
    ... it doesn't work. ????
    I wonder... the project that I am working with were converted from Cp4 recordings. I wonder if that is causing my grief?

  • InDesign CS4 crashing when applying object styles

    When i try to use IObjectStyleSuite->ApplyObjectStyle with the name of an object style that is inside a group, indesign Crashed.
    I've tried using the full name of the style path -> group:stylename but it doesn't work.
    Anyone faced this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    As a last resort, when I run into the weird problems, I go through a process of elimination to find the offender.
    As example, I would delete half the images and try the update. if it works, I know the problem was in one of the images I deleted. If it doesnt, I'd delete the other half and try again. I keep cutting the number of images I remove in half till I'm down to whatever it was causing the problem. The I save it as a newfile type and re-import/place.
    Kind of a pain in the tookas, but it works when I'm really stumped.

  • In cfchart tip text is colored blue when applying xml style file!

    Foregroundcolor is set to black also, but it just colored
    chart text - not tips, which remained blue. And there seems to be
    no way to change this and make tip text black...
    Nobody replied. So - can it be considered as a BUG? If so -
    how to report about it? Does anybody from Macromedia read this
    forum?

    Nope, tipbgcolor is not a case, I need to change FOREGROUND
    color.
    As to webchart designer - thanks, I've found <popup>
    tag, that is responsible for this. I will make <popup
    foreground="black"/> and let know if it works...
    Thanks a lot, it works! Webchart designer shows a lot of
    properties to change...

  • Applying paragraph style to a single paragraph affects all previous paragraphs

    Hey,
    I'm trying to create a script that would take an array of text objects that describe what the text and style of a particular line of text is. And in some lines to apply Character Styles as well.
    The problem is that, while the script works when the loop is in the character styles "mode", it seems to apply the paragraph styles to all the previous lines of text when the aforementioned object asks it to apply only the paragraph style (no character styles).
    The offending line is this:
    if ( typeof line.text == 'string' ) {
        frame.contents += "\r" + line.text;
        frame.parentStory.paragraphs[-1].appliedCharacterStyle = doc.characterStyles[0];
        frame.parentStory.paragraphs[-1].applyParagraphStyle(style);
        continue;
    I even copied the style-apllying lines from the Character-Styles-applying section of the script (the else part), but it still applies the style to all the previous lines of text. The script below is the full code I have I long with one of the objects that text data. If I comment out the "offending lines" mentioned above, the script applyes all the styles correctly. Otherwise, only the last line (the Product - Description style) is applied, while all the previous lines attain the 'Spacer' style.
    Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? (sorry for the giant piece of code, but I can't pin-point what's not relevant here).

    Hi Jon,
    I'm looking into this issue but it will take me some time to provide a reply. 
    In the meantime I noticed that you have 3 monitors with 1x 55' and 2x27' - please have a try to only connect 1x27' monitor and see if issue persists.
    Also please try to change the screen resolution to a lower size and see if issue persists. 
    Both suggestions are not solution, I just would like to know if it is related to multiple monitor or screen resolution.

  • Data point display when mouse hovers over data point in TCODE QGC1

    Hi experts,
    Just want to ask if anyone knows how to add more data in the display when your mouse hovers over the data point in the control chart of transaction QGC1?
    Because currently the control chart shows u201CSeriesu201D and u201CValueu201D, Iu2019m planning to add the inspection lot date when your mouse hovers over the data point.
    Hope to have some response regarding this and thanks in advance

    Tohatsu,
    I am not sure exactly what you are trying to do but the way you have went about doing things is not the way to code in LV. Fist off break your code into functional blocks and use these functional blocks as Subvi's. This will make your block diagram easier to read. Once you do this you can get rid of a lot of code. Also you need to learn how to use the event structure, right now the way your code is set up to use it is not correct. Have a look at the examples that ship with LV. i am not even going to begin to try to understand your code because the diagram is so large. Please do not take all of this the wrong way I am not trying to be hard on you or anything, I am just giving you some constructive criticism..
    Break your code down into functional blocks and use subvi's to perform those blocks of code.
    Have a look at the examples on how to use an event structure.
    Have a look at state machines
    You would also benefit from getting the book called Labview for everyone, third edition, jeffrey travis and james kring.
    You have a lot going on in this VI. Use the eventstucture to your advantage instead of as a hinderence like it is now. the way your code is set up now everything runs in your while loop, then it waits for an event to fire. in your case the while loop will not run again until the mouse moves over the waveform chart. You are on the right track, you just need to get some fundamental basics down and you will figure out what is going on.
    Thanks for converting the code to 8.0 for me.

  • Pointer disappears when changing displays

    Often when I have been working on my PB at the office, then put it to sleep and take it home and plug it into my 20" display and wake it up, there is no mouse pointer visible on the screen. The windows I was working on will have transferred to the big display, and I can tell the mouse is working, because if I move the mouse all the way to the right where the dock is and move it up and down I can see the different dock icons highlight. Occasionally I can move the mouse by "dead reckoning" to a button I need to click to save a file but usually I cannot, and sometimes the results are disastrous, I end up having to force-reboot and lose a lot of work. The problem happens in the other direction also (PB operating closed w/ 20", unplug display, goes to sleep, pointer lost when waking up.) Today that happened and I decided not to use the PB at the office. When I brought it home and plugged it into the display the pointer came back.
    I have a hunch this happens more often when a Java-based app is running but I'm not sure.
    Any suggestions on how to avoid this? I should be able to do this without problems, right?
    Thanks

  • Style sheet changing when applied to text within a table

    Hi everyone,
    I'm using ID CS2.
    I've defined a paragraph style sheet with the regular weight of a certain typeface, however when I apply this style to text within a table, the typeface changes to the bold version of the font even though the regular version is specified in the style.
    Does anyone know if this is a known issue with styles being applied to tables or is it a sign of a corrupt file or something? Is there a fix?
    Thanks

    Is there a character style applied to the table or text in the table. I had many issues with this over-riding my paragraph style.

  • Why is the rotate point moving when using Transform Again on a triangle?

    I am trying to create a pattern that I have created in previous itterations of Illustrator. In CC when I create a triangle (either via Star, Poly, or Pen tool) and then try to rotate it via Transform Each > Transform again, the rotation point moves according to what the bounding box would be if I reset it, rather than staying in one (original) spot relative to the actual bounding box and triangle. I cannot find any settings that would be affecting the rotate point in this way. I am pretty confident that I am using the same procedure now that I did in older versions of Illustrator. Perhaps I am using the wrong procedure.
    Naturally, if you are rotating something around its center you should expect that it would end up create a circular pattern. It is more of a square with concave sides. The red is a perfect circle that I grouped to the triangle to demonstrate the rotate points movement. It is located in the exact center according to the align tools.

    With the rotate tool, option click to set you point of rotation.
    You also may want to look into the transform effect, theres is a box with 9 points for your anchor points you can try. You can also add an object filled with none, group this with your object, and transform the group, to get offset results with the transform effect.
