Navigation layer positioning shifting when used as component

Hello, really hoping someone can help me figure out what I'm doing wrong. I have a site with a drop down nav that I made using layers. After having the client change the nav a few times I realized what a pain it is to update each page on the site with the pages, so I decided to try to make a separate file for the nave and place it as a component into each page so I could update just one page and see the changes across the whole site.
The problem is that the nav file I made looks correct on it's own, but when I place it the positioning shifts to the left and doesn't line up with the page anymore. The positioning seems to be fixed when the page size changes (not sure what that's called). Anyway I can make this work?
The nav page is here: http://bostonsruntoremember.com/boston/_brtr_navlayers2.html
And a sample page with the nav placed as a component is here: http://bostonsruntoremember.com/boston/_autonav_test.html
Unfortunately I was suppose to make a bunch of changes last week but have wasted a bunch of time trying to figure this out.

Hi,
Here is my graphical solution for your problem. Underneath is the explanation:
DC_A
+DC Usage: refs DCB.PP_B
+WDCompA
   +Controller
   +Component Interface
     +Interface Views
       +MyWindowAInterfaceView
   + Component Usages
     +WDCompA (Component Usage)
   +Views
     +MyViewA
   +Windows
     +MyWindowA
       +MyViewA (View Usage)
         +InboundPlugA <-----------------+
       +WDCompB.MyWindowBInterfaceView   |
         +OutboundPlugB -----------------+
DC_B
Public Part:PP_B
             + contains WDCompB
+WDCompB
   +Controller
   +Component Interface
     +Interface Views
       +MyWindowBInterfaceView
         +OutboundPlugB
   +Views
     +MyViewB
   +Windows
     +MyWindowB
       +MyViewB (View Usage)
can you add a view to a public part? The only way how you can embed a view from a different DC is through a window of the WD component (we are not talking about DC now). A window is the visible part of a Web Dynpro component. It is represented by the so-called Interface view locatated in the WD explorer under
Project->Component->Component Interface->Interface Views.
Each Interface view has a window (Project->Component->Windows) with the same name in which you can embed the view you want to expose. The Interface view also can have in- and outbound plugs.
Lets say WD A has Component usage to WD B. You can navigate from a view in WD A to the Interface View of WD B. This interface view can also have a outbound plug.
Because all this stuff is visual it is a bit awkward to explain. Maybe this helps already otherwise I will provide more information.

Printer Driver Problem? Page margins shift when using paper tray vs. manual feed

I am printing to an Apple LaserWriter 12/640 PS. The printed page and page margins are PERFECT (WYSIWYG; "What you see is what you get") when printing either to: (a) the MANUAL FEED TRAY of the Apple LaserWriter 12/640 PS; or (b) PDF to view on screen.
HOWEVER, when printing to the LaserWriter using the (ordinary/usual) paper cassette (you know, the thing that holds the 200+ sheeets of blank paper), two margin problems occur: (1) the uppermost portion of page content is shifted down 3/4" (maybe closer to 11/16") vs. its position on the manually fed paper. This, in turn, causes the botttom portion of the page content to run off below the printed page. (2) The "unprintable region" on the right edge of the paper expands from 1/8" with the manually fed paper to 7/16" when using the paper cassette. This shows up as an extra 5/16" (7/16" - 1/8" = 5/16") of white space/missing page content on the right edge.
The problem is consistent and reproduceable. It happens with cassette fed output from Safari, Word 2011, Acrobat X, TurboTax, Quicken Essentials for Mac, and TextEdit.
BIG problem when printing long documents whose content and margin settings I cannot control (e.g., third-party documents from Acrobat, anything from Quicken Essentials or TurboTax, pages from Safari, etc.). The only workaround is to feed everything manually (UGGH!).
I suspect the printer driver is faulty since the problem detailed above happens with so many applications. Is there a way to edit a plist (using the application/utility "Pref Setter" or similar) to overide the driver's margin settings?
I believe the print driver is "Apple LaserWriter 12/640 PS v2015.105" (from Sytem Prefences->Print&Scan->Options and Supplies->Driver).
Any help greatly appreceated.

Thanks! It works perfectly! I even saved my original "oversize" document by printing it to PDF with the scaling so the problem is permanently cured, at least for this document.

Layer position resets when creating animations

I'm creating an animated gif from a video clip (cinemagraph). In order to acheive the effect I need, I need to move each layer with the move tool to get an object to stay in the same position. I have gone through layer by layer and used the move tool to move the contents of each layer. When I play the animation I see the layers in the position I put them in. As soon as I stop playing the animation the contents of each layer snap back to their original positions. I have tried using the lock tools (both lock position and lock all) but they don't make a difference. Can anyone tell me why layer positions would reset when creating animations and how to get it to stop?
Thanks for any help.
Eric

It seems from your answer that you're thinking I'm just moving one frame and expecting the rest of them to move automatically (but I'm not sure if that's what you are saying). I have gone through and moved each frame individually and then locked each frame's position individually. When I play the animation and then stop it the layers move back to their original positions.
I'm also not sure if you're thinking I'm expecting that when I move one image off the layer it will affect the next layer. That's not what I'm expecting. I'm just repositioning the image on each layer to get a particular object to stay in one place (the camera was moving while shooting), so I'm dealin gwith each layer individually.
Thanks

Locking when using a component as an object in the application scope...

I have a component that I am building right now that hold
application settings that are stored in a database table. The
settings are maintained in a structure "variables.settings" within
the component and can only be accessed by get and set methods. I
use the following to create the instance of the object:
<cfset application.settings =
createObject("settings","component").init() />
Now when getting a setting I do not think locking is needed
as its just reading the value and I am not really concerned with a
race condition...
But when using the set method which will update the value of
the setting.... should I be locking that as technically the object
is in a shared variable scope? Or is it safe because its within the
cfc/object?
If locking is needed, would I need to lock when using the set
method? or can I just build the lock into the set method so that
its always there?

To disagree with craigkaminsky, I think you only need to lock
if you are
concerned about race conditions and what could happen during
a 'dirty
read' and|or conflicting writes.
A lot of developers have an old impression of ColdFusion that
one *must*
lock all shared scope variable access to maintain a stable
application.
This dates from the ColdFusion 4.5 days where there where
bugs in
ColdFusion that could cause memory leaks and eventual
application
instability if one did not lock shared scope reads and
writes. This has
long been fixed, but the advice persists.
So now it is only a matter of your data and what would happen
if one
user read an old value while it was in the process of being
updated by
another user. Or could two users be updating the same value
at the same
time and cause conflict. If either of those two statements
are true,
then yes you should use locking as required by your
application.
But if they are both false and it does not matter that user A
might get
the old value microseconds before user B changes it. Or there
is no
concern with user A changing it once and user B changing it
again to
something different moments later without knowing the user A
has already
changed it. Then locking is probably unnecessary.
There can be a cost to over locking shared variable writes
and|or reads.
Every time one creates a lock, one is single threading some
portion of
ones code. Depending on how the locking is done, this single
threading
may only apply to individual users or it may apply to every
single user
on the entire server. Either way, too much of this in the
wrong places
can create a significant bottle necks in ones application if
too many
user requests start piling up waiting for their turn through
the locked
block of code.

Color shift when using save for web

Hello,
I am converting my psd files to jpegs using "save for web". I am noticing that the colors are shifting from the original after saving for web. The color shift does not happen if I just convert the psd files to jpegs by using "save as". The psds have a profile of RGB1998. I am using CS3 and my monitor is color calibrated.
Do I need to convert the psd documents to sRGB first before I go to "save for web"?
The preview doesn't look any different if I check ICC profile in the save for web window. I have been told that you are not supposed to embed the ICC profile in the document when saving for web because most monitors are untagged.
Anyway I am wondering if I have to accept a color shift when saving for web or is there something I can do to get the saved for web jpegs to more closely match the original psd?
Thanks a lot for your help.

I think the reason why this question is asked often is because the FAQ entry is pretty lame and incomplete, especially for Mac users that by default have a color managed browser and by default have a screwed up rendering mechanism for untagged images.
Depending on your version of Photoshop, you can convert to sRGB before or during the Save for Web operation.

You convert to sRGB for the systems that do not fully support color management.
and...
You include the sRGB ICC profile for the systems that do support color management.
Doing both covers your bum in most situations. You may choose to omit the ICC profile if you are working on common interface graphics that do not require strict color management. The ICC profile adds a few kilobytes to the file size that are not necessary on lesser graphic elements on a web page.

Zsh cursor position corrupt when using $fg[] for colors and RPROMPT

Hi,
So far, in my zsh prompt, when using color I did something like:
%F{yellow}
in my PROMPT variable.
Now, this seemed to not have worked on some computers (it did not change color, but showed {yellow}).
So I change to using
$fg[yellow]
This works, but currupts my cursor position (it is not at the end of the prompt anymore) when (and only when) I also use RPROMPT.
Can this be corrected? What is the most easier way to define colors that works?
Simple example for prompt that does not work:
PROMPT="$fg[yellow]>"
RPROMPT="$fg[white]($fg[yellow]%T$fg[white])"
Thanks!
Nathan

Enclose your colors with %{/%}, as in
%{$fg[red]%}

Image Shifts When Using Shared Printer

OS 10.6.8
Acrobat Pro 9.5.1
Printer: Canon Pixma 4800 ip4800
As far as I know, all drivers are up to date.
Printer is connected to an iMac and is set to allow sharing.
When printing a .pdf from another Mac (wirelessly via AirPort), the image is shifted slightly (approx 3/8") to the right and down on the printed sheet, cropping content.
All other remote printing is OK (including from other Adobe CS5 applications). I can also remote print the .pdf correctly using Apple's Preview application. Printing is also OK if printed from the iMac that the printer is connected to. Only time there is an issue is: Shared printing a .pdf using Acrobat.

Dear Larry,
Thanks for reporting the problem. You mentioned that page content is getting shifted by around 3/8 inches when printed using Mac Airprint using Acrobat which resulted in clipping of some of the content and other applications print fine.
Could you please pass on the same pdf to me as well? Although, it doesnot look dependent on any particular pdf but I would like to analyze certain behavior with the pdf you are using.
Please also confirm that you have not printed with "None" pagescaling option when you observed this.
Thansk,
Atul

Colour shift when using 4.2 Edit In to adjust a NEF file in CS6

If I choose Edit In and CS6 the resulting image in CS6 shows a marked colour green/yellow colour shift.
The LR4 external editor is configured to edit using ProPhoto RGB with 16 bit TIFF.
However, if I use the Export option with the same settings and then open the image in Photoshop it is fine.
Equally, if I first convert the NEF image to a DNG and then use Edit In with the same settings it also appears fine in Photoshop. This would appear to rule out any issues with monitor profiles (monitor profiled with i1).
Therefore this appears to be an issue with NEF files (Nikon D3) using the Edit In facility.
Also for some obscure reason it also does not always give the option to Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments and just goes straight to Photoshop (even though it has been adjusted in Lightroom!).

manicfoto wrote:
Richard, perhaps I have not made the issue clear. If I import an image into Lightroom and choose Edit In Photoshop it should go straight to Photoshop as no changes have been made in Lightroom. However, if I make any adjustments in the Develop module and choose to make further changes in Photoshop I should have the option to Edit a Copy with Lightroom Adjustments etc. This dialog is not offered consistently.
If I make a change in Photoshop it should (and does) correctly save it as a new TIFF file. Again if I make any adjustments in Develop module and then choose to make further changes in Photoshop to the TIFF file it should still offer the dialog box with the copy options. Again this is not happening consistently.
Richard correctly explained how 'Edit In' works with raw files, at least that's the way it does on my Windows 7 64 bit system.
When selecting 'Edit in' with a raw file the 'What to Edit' popup with options for 'Edit a Copy with LR adjustments,' 'Edit a Copy,' and 'Edit Original' will not appear. Instead a TIFF file is created in system memory with LR adustments applied, which then opens in PS. Until you hit 'Save' in PS the TIFF file resides only in system memory. Once you hit 'Save' or Save As' (with the same folder location) the TIFF file will appear inside LR with both the LR and PS adjustments applied.
manicfoto wrote:
trshaner, I have done some further testing of the DNG files, and they do, in fact, also exhibit the same colour shift behaviour, although the amount of the shift seems to depend on the original image - some images show a more marked shift than others which was not obvious to me at first.
This is consistent with LR output rendering engine problem if both the NEF and DNG copy for a specific image take on the same color shift. Since the effect is very subtle on a single conversion I can see where you might have confused the DNG as looking OK.
manicfoto wrote:
I then performed another test with a TIFF file and although the change was smaller the colour definitely shifts, with the amount of shift being determined by the contents of the original image, so I have to conclude that I have the output rendering issue mentioned earlier in the thread.
Incidentally, the colour shift issue is also found if I use the option to Open as a Smart Object in Photoshop.
I have re-installed Lightroom 4.2 but the problem is still the same.
To really confirm that this is being caused by the LR output rendering engine you will need do an additional 'Edit a Copy with LR Adjustments' to the TIFF file. This will create a 2nd TIFF file, which you can then select and then 'Edit a Copy with LR Adjustments.' I would do this at least three times to insure you can see the "cumulative' effect from the LR output rendering engine conversion. You will want to compare the last TIFF file (4th) with the original (1st) TIFF file.
Please try this and post the histograms for the original TIFF and last Tiff with three cumulative 'Edit a Copy with LR Adjustments,' or confirm that's what you have already done in the above posted histograms.

Layer position shift on different browsers

Working on a project with layered menus.
Problem, the PC Internet Explore the pop up menu (created by
layers) looks correct on the PC.
However on Firefox on the PC it shifts down about 5 pixels
and breaks up the area where the nav is.
Also on ALL MACs we see the same thing.
Soooo it seems like the Internet Exporer for the PC is the
issue.
I have to make it the same becuase I work for a MAC company
but the viewers are mostly PC. Soooooo I am kinda stuck to fix this
issue.
Any one had this happen or know how to fix it?
http://www.thejonesgroup.com/clients/halperns/version1/about/about.asp

Look at the code on your page. It's badly horked.
Multiple head and body tags. Are you using include files? If
so, do they
also contain <html>, <head>, or <body>
tags? They should not....

BUG - layer position moves when switching frames in timeline

When creating a new layer and positioning it in the active frame, the position is sometimes wrong when returning to that frame.
1. create multiple frames in the timeline
2. create a layer and position it somewhere in the image
3. view another frame
4. return to the original frame and the position has changed
Positioning the layer again seems to work, it doesn't move by itself when moving between frames, but remains in position.

Same as your otehr post: Screenshots!

How to determine the positioning order when using tab key?

Hallo,
in my jspx-page i want to define the order which the cursor jumps when the user is using the tab key.
i don't know how to? in html there i can use tabindex. which way i must go?
Any help is appreciated.

I found that tabindex is not applicable. But i think it is an important point for better handling.
Is there no easy way to do it?

I keep getting the following error message when using Firefox: Component returned failure code: 0x80040111 (NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE) [nsIDOMJSWindow.setTimeout]

Whenever I leave a close a tab the error message - Component returned failure code: 0x80040111 (NS_ERROR_NOT_AVAILABLE) [nsIDOMJSWindow.setTimeout] - appears. Sometimes multiple copies of the same message appear

It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

IE6 & IE7 page expands to full width when using a component ....

I have created a dreamweaver template which expands using the overflow:visible CSS. The page displays fine when I create a recordset using the dreamweaver tools but when I created a dynamic page using the Developer Toolbox and view it in IE6 or IE7 the page is displayed in full width.

Hi,
I guess this happens because ADDT uses it´s own CSS, which might override your overflow:visible.
All of ADDT´s CSS is located in the "includes/skins" directory BTW

Colour shift when placing PSD files into illustrator

Hi there
I have tested this issue on CS 3,4 and 5.
bascially if I create a CMYK document with a colour image and save this down as a psd file with the coated Fogra 39 embedded in it. If I create a new file within Illustrator with the same colur management and place the psd file into the document and check the link option (so it is a linked file), the colour shifts when using the colour picker. If I print the document from each APP they visually look different as well.
If I place the psd into illustrator without selecting the link option the colour has the same CMYK values as the psd within Photoshop and also prints correctly.
i can only assume that there is an option somewhere in regards to the "link" option and how this changes tha colour values somewhere? If not is there anyway I can get around this issue so I can use linked files without the CMYK values changing?
Thanks in advance
Paul

Hi guys
Thanks for the responses.
I use bridge to blanket the colour settings so this i feel this is not the issue here. If you have a moment and would kindly create a colour tint within PS of what ever colour, save this down as any format and place this into illustrator with the link checkbox checked you will see the colour data has physically changed for the CMYK values. This results in the prints looking different as well. If you deselct the link check box when placing the file the CMYK values are the same.
I tried the overprint preview option. This changes the viewable colour on screen but not the CMYK data of the file.
There seems to be a fundamental floor with this link option for some reason.
I might have phone Adobe direct for this iisue as I cannot find a fix for this.
Many thanks
Paul
