My color picker in elements 8 is not working

When I pick a color with the color picker on Photoshop Elements 8  and I click OK, no matter what color I pick it shows gray. What is wrong??

Thank you. It only went to grayscale when I opened a new blank file. Now it works. Never happened before. I must have inadvertantly hit the grayscaler mode key when I opened the blank file. Thanks again.

  • Acrobat X 10.1.1 - Colors picker drop down menus not working

    Colours picker drop down menus are not working stuck on default in all selections - Is there any work around / any other way to bring in or select an exact RGB / HEX etc colour besides using this picker if it doesn't work?
    - Chris

    You can programmatically set the various field colors (text, background, border) using JavaScript. For more information:
    Color arrays: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.260.html
    textColor property: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.726.html
    So you could set up a temporary button and use the following script in the Mouse Up event:
    // Set the text color to the RGB color (237,121,5),
    // which is a nice pumpkin color
    getField("text1").textColor = ["RGB", 237/255, 121/255, 5/255];

  • On opening Elements 2, color picker and hexadecimal values not working.

    On opening Elements 2, foreground color is white but changes to yellow if a file or image is opened.  Checked hexadecimal values and they are the same.  Any ideas as to what has gone awry or what can be done to correct this?  Operating system is Windows XP.

    Barbara, thank you!  We've had computer problems lately and obviously something was reset during repairs creating the need to reload.  For now everything seems to be working OK.  Appreciate your help!

  • Why is my adobe photoshop elements 12 not working. it says initializing and then it says there is an error and closes itself

    why is my adobe photoshop elements 12 not working. it says initializing then error and shuts itself down.

    Three things you can try:
    1. Clean the superdrive with a proprietory CD/DVD lens cleaner that uses tiny brushes.
    2. Perform an SMC reset:

  • LaserJet Pr0 200 color MFP M276nw Touch Screen not Working correctly

    Hello, I'm having an issue with a LaserJet Pr0 200 color MFP M276nw Touch Screen not Working correctly. I have followed the instructions to reset the printer, but now am unable to select 'English' as my language because every time I select the 'English' option 'Spanish' is selected. I am then given two options to select 'Si' or 'No' both of which can not be selected on the touch screen?
    Anybody know of a way round this?

    Hi @dnhowes ,
    I see that you are having issues with the touch screen not working correctly. I will do my best to help you.
    Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector) This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
    Was it the Nvram reset back to factory settings that you tried or a hard reset?
    Try selecting the option on the display a little higher above the icon to see if that helps. Some touch screens are finicky.
    I find that on the Lab printers when I am selecting different menus.
    If the issue continues, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836 for further assistance. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

  • Webi report on OLAP Bex query -  Cost element Hierarchy not working Drill down

    Hello,
    We have a BO report on Bex query, Not on universe, we have a Hierarchy for Cost Element Group, and we are expecting the Drill down functionality for that in BO report, but it does not.
    Webi report on OLAP Bex query -  Cost element Hierarchy not working Drill down
    Any pointers how to do it please
    Thanks
    Krishna

    Hi,
    WebI reports on BEx source don't use same Drill feature as other sources, it's replaced by expland/collapse of hierarchy nodes (documented in WebI user guide in § "24.1 Drill defined"). This means you have to create query which selects all hierarchy sub-tree you plan on exploring later in report, otherwise if no data is available under a node there will be no '+/-' sign to visit this part of tree.
    You could try first to select "All members" from hierarchy in QueryPanel and see if behavior in report suits your needs. Then you should restrict hierarchy member selection to what's really needed to avoid performance issues.

  • Remove Element does not work

    Hi Experts,
    I want to loop over a node and remove all elements in this node if they don't match a certain pattern (which needs to be checked by getting the details o these elements).
    So looping over the node and checking whether the pattern matches works pretty fine (I've checked by using a counter variable which counts the number of matches and compares to the total size of the node). But removing the elements does not work.
    I always get the complete table as the result but not without all those elements I that they'd be removed already. I also check the success status (boolean) of the remove function and it delivers always "true" so it seems to work.
    This is the relevant coding:
           for(int c = 0 ; c < wdContext.nodeMatnrlist().size() ; c++){
              wdContext.nodeMatnrlist().moveTo(c);          
              GetMaterialDetails(wdContext.currentMatnrlistElement().getMaterial());          
              if(!wdContext.currentMaterialDetailsElement().modelObject()
    .getOutput().getMaterial_General_Data().getCreated_By().equals("BAIV-SS09-21")){
                   success = wdContext.nodeMatnrlist().removeElement(wdContext.nodeMatnrlist().getCurrentElement());
                   counter++;
    any Ideas on this?
    Many thanks in advance!
    Cheers
    Tobias

    Hi Tobias.
    Try this instead:
    wdContext.nodeMatnrlist().invalidate();

  • Background-color:transparent !important; is not working in IE

    Hi,
    In my sharepoint site i have used "background-color:transparent !important;" css. It is not working in IE but in Mozilla is working fine.
    And I am using IE 11. Please let me know is there any thing wrong in the syntax. If that is the case please provide me correct solution for that.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
    Regards,
    Saya 

    Thank you for your reply.
    I have checked given links. Those are not use for this issue.
    Actually in my sharepoint site the same code "background-color:transparent
    !important;" was working fine before installing sharepoint 2010 service pack 2. After installation we got this issue. And if i change "transparent"
    with any color, it is applying that color. Only "transparent"
    background css is not working in IE.

  • HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw Not working with Fedora 14

    Our ERP is compactible up to Fedora 14. But I newly purchased Printer(
    HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177fw) is not working with this OS.
    Give me a urgent solution

    Hi @HealthITLadyRed,
    I read your post and see that the printer is making noise and is stuck initializing. I would really like to be able to help you resolve this issue.
    I have provided some steps to try to see if we can resolve this issue.
    Check and remove any packaging material inside the printer and toner.
    Disconnect the USB/Network/FAX and power the printer on Standalone.
    Do a hard reset to see if that will resolve the issue.
    Leave the printer on and unplug the power cable from the printer and wall outlet for 60 seconds.
    Then reconnect the power cable to the printer and wall outlet rather than a surge protector.
    This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
    If the issue persists, perform a power drain by disconnecting the power cord from the back of the printer and keeping the power button pressed for 30 seconds and in case of a power switch keep the switch in ON position for 30 seconds before reconnecting the power chord.
    Update the printer's firmware by a USB connection. Software and Drivers.
    Select Option 2 and wait for the page to load and then select the link for firmware. This resolved the previous posters issue.
    I can send a private message with another step to try.
    In the forum beside your handle name just click on the envelope to view it.
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet/Wireless)
    What happened prior to this issue? (paper jam, changed toner) Any feedback would be appreciated.
    Is this a new printer?
    If you appreciate my efforts, please click the Thumbs up button below.
    If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know. Thank You.

  • Elements 10 not working and uninstall not working either help please?

    Elements 10 does not work and I have tried to uninstall it with the intention of re-installing.   When I press un-install it tells me it is still uninstalling or changing the program but this has been happening for three hours?  Windows installer is saying 'cancelling' the same for two hours.  I am stuck please help.  Many thanks in advance from a well qualified luddite!

    Update - I am manually un-installing because as I can't get photoshop to work - (it says it is scanning for updated and never stops -)  I assume it is corrupt.  I have selected it and then uninstalled - had no further options offered to me and now it is saying ' please wait until the current program is finished unistalling or being changed'  I am totally confused.  Now I am getting the message 'Install server not responding'  Please help.

  • FileUpload element is not working.

    Hi, experts,
    There is WD-application with FileUpload element that is not working so that the rar file isn't uploaded into MIME Repository.
    Action:
    1. Create content attribute that type is xstring in the view context.
    2.  Create MIMETYPE,  FILENAME attribute that type is string in the view context.
    3.  Bind the content attribute  to the data property of the fileupload element in the layout.
    4.  Bind the filename to the filename property of the fileupload element in the layout.
    5.  Bind the mimetype to the mime type property of the fileupload element in the layout.
    The following is code for the upload button in the view:
    method ONACTIONFILEUPLOAD .
    data:   content  type xstring.
    DATA lo_nd_mimes           TYPE REF TO            if_wd_context_node.
    DATA lo_el_mimes           TYPE REF TO            if_wd_context_element.
    DATA ls_mimes              TYPE                   wd_this->element_mimes.

    get the context
    wd_context->get_attribute( exporting name = 'FILECONTENT' importing value = content ).

    lo_el_mimes = lo_nd_mimes->get_element(  ).
    set single attribute
      lo_el_mimes->set_attribute(
        EXPORTING
          name =  `MIMETYPE`
          value = 'APPLICATION/octet-stream;charset=utf-16le' ).
      lo_el_mimes->set_attribute(
        EXPORTING
          name =  `FILENAME`
          value = 'test.rar' ).
    put the rar file to  the repository .
    data:
    mime_repository        type ref to           if_mr_api,
    mime_type                type                  string,
    url                            type                  string value '/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/zz_00_test_019' ,             
    mime_repository = cl_mime_repository_api=>IF_MR_API~GET_API( ).
    mime_repository->put(
              EXPORTING
                i_url                         = url

    So the questions are:
    I don't find the rar file in the mime repository after I run the Webdynpro for ABAP application.
    I am sure that the field where is put the rar file is right.
    Do you give me some hint?
    Thanks!

  • Element substitution not working properly during unmarshal

    Hi everybody,
    I've following situation. I have a project (call it project A) which contains a schema (lets call it the abstract schema). In the abstract schema there is an element which was declared as abstract. Furthermore there is another element (call it container) which shall be able to contain as much "abstract" elements as the user wants to. It obvious that an element could not be abstract, so I've created another project (call it project b) which has a schema (call it concrete schema) whichs imports the abstract schema. In the concrete schema I will have some elements which substitute the abstract element from the abstract schema.
    Now I've an xml document whichs root element is the container (from the abstract schema), and it should contain the non-abstract elements from the concrete schema. So far so good, everything will be validated, there are no errors. But unfortunately the unmarshal progress will not return the expected result. Validation during unmarshal progress is ok as I said but after unmarshalling the xml file, there is no concrete element in the returned result.
    I don't know what could be wrong. Did somebody already worked with element substituion in that way and is able to help me?
    Because its very complicated to describe I've created a minimal testcase (http://www.mailing-list-disaster.com/generic-jobengine.tar.gz) . Just compile both projects and run the using-abstract-engine application.
    Thx for suggestions and with best regards

    Hi Ram
    Thanks for the reply.
    No it does not take from any other LOV and there is no existing LOV mapping for this item.
    Its in the iExpense>Create expense report>General Information screen> Approver LOV
    The APPROVER LOV needs to be mapped with the field "Cost Center" which is not there in the standard functionality.
