No fullscreen? Seriously???

Is there any feature more standard on any software intended to display anything? Is there any activity less in need of a GUI than reading a book?
This software is sorely lacking in options to make PDFs adaptable to the wide variety of displays likely to be used for leisure reading, rendering the whole value of retaining the original  page layout moot. The lack of rotation means that the obvious orientation desired for small, widescreen laptops must be supplied by a third party, and the persistence of the GUI means that 1/4 of the display area is wasted for a typical hardcover in full-page view on such a device, leaving some texts effectively unreadable (I for one don't find panning, scanning and scrolling very immersive).
What's more, it requires too many operations to reach the point where you're actually reading a book. With FBReader (not a competitor, as it can't read DRM), it's four keystrokes and maybe 20 seconds from sleeping laptop to fullscreen and ready-to-read. With ADE, I have to maximize the window, close the left pane, and rotate my desktop each and every time.
This software was clearly designed for managing the DRM, with reading as an afterthought, most likely by people who have never read an ebook in their lives. Small-scale laptops and tablets are the only mobile devices capable of displaying these files faithfully, and Adobe has completely failed to support them.

Yes would have to agree. We have gotten used to simple full screen or detailed views with pdf viewers and Adobe is no stranger to displaying them. It does appear that the publishers legal department were the primary users in mind when the functionality was being agreed.

  • Photoshop CS4 Menu toolbar display bug and fullscreen slowness...

    http://img384.imageshack.us/img384/8202/menutoolsbugee3.gif
    I'm having a display bug with the menu toolbar in Photoshop CS4 Extended. Notice the area of tools is gone and replaced by random pixels? This happens whenever I enter the fullscreen mode that hides the interface. And when I exit that fullscreen mode, that bug appears and doesn't fix itself until I restart Photoshop. Can this be fixed?
    Image view rotation also happens much slower than normal in that fullscreen mode when interface is hidden. But performs normally after I bring back the interface.
    I'm on WinXP, Athlon 64 4000+, 3GB ram, GeForce 6800 GT video card [driver 169.21]. I'm not sure if this is a video driver bug or CS4 bug.

    Yeah, Dave, I can understand how that can happen. I've seen that sort of weirdness when I've seriously overtaxed my hardware.
    <br />
    <br />Had way too much running all at once yesterday, switched over to Firefox, and clicking on folders in the Bookmarks bar, I had 4 bookmark/folder menus dropped simultaneously.
    <br />
    <br />I managed to grab a screenshot with 2 of them showing, but man! You shoulda seen it with 4!

  • Is there a way to turn off the menubar/dock in fullscreen applications?

    I've recently been using several applications which are designed to operate in an absolute fullscreen mode, and I'm being frustrated by the appearance of the menubar or dock if I happen to move the cursor near their locations.   For these specific applications, there is no need to access the menubar in full screen mode, and very often there will be things I wish to click on which are near the top of the screen, but it is very hard to do without moving one pixel too close and having the menubar drop down and obscure what I was trying to click on.
    An example of programs where this can be an issue are remote desktop access programs (Splashtop in my specific case).   When I make the application full-screen, it displays the full-screen of the remote computer.  However, as you can imagine, when you try to access the menubars on the remote machine, the menubar for my local machine will drop down and obscure the remote menubar.  For a remote desktop application, if I want to access the local menubar I would drop out of fullscreen mode and then access the local menu bar, but when I am in fullscreen mode, I don't want the local menubar to display.  The same problem exists for the Dock, obviously just whenever I need to access something at the bottom of the screen instead of at the top.
    What I really want to know is this:  How can I set the menubar/dock to be permanently hidden when I am using an application in a full screen mode.   There are certain apps in which I absolutely do not want the menubar to appear and it is extremely frustrating to have it keep 'jumping in front of my mouse' at the edges of the screen.

    Oh, it also lists my bookmarks as well. Private browsing? Are you serious?

  • Serious lack of stability

    Okay so I have a custom built desktop (hardware specs below), running arch 64 for a friend of mine (will try and get him on the forums)..
    Im not sure if it can go through an entire day without freezing. There seem to be some serious stability issues with this thing and I cant figure out where I have gone wrong with the build! Literally, the graphics seem to freeze with either a monotone colour screen (ramdom colour and at random intervals) or a 'no signal'. Its actually worse than win95! ;D
    Any ideas on what's causing the problem or on how to debug this thing? It kills sshd everytime it freezes to I cant remote log in

  • Photoshop CS4 Fullscreen Issues

    Photoshop CS4 11.0.1
    Windows 7 x32
    NVIDIA driver 258.96 [GEFORCE 8800GT]
    Hello, since a few new versions of the nVidia Drivers I can't use OpenGL in Fullscreen. Because the menus aren't useable, hidden, and don't show up when I hit the button on my pen. The cursor say me anyway they are there, but I can't see and access them. It seems they lay behind the image.
    Switching OpenGL of solve the problem, but I can't work without.
    Configuring the Drivers or use nHancer don't solve it.
    So, anyone know a tweak for it?

    Well, you could uninstall your video drivers and drop back to an older version...  I've not gone looking on the nVidia site - do they provide older versions?  I know ATI does.
    And there is the possibility of using Photoshop windowed.  That's how I always use it (but to be fair I have a lot of screen space).
    It's sad how the video card makers care 99.44% about video games and give serious computer users so little attention.  Sigh.

  • Fullscreen problem!

    I can't get fullscreen to work on Hulu.com's Adobe Flash
    Player 9.
    In both IE and Firefox I get this when I go full-screen
    (regardless of standard res or 420p)
    http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/2200/fullscreenii9.jpg
    I have the latest ATI drivers (8.3, running on HD 2900 Pro)
    and Vista. Does anyone know of a solution to this?
    I really want to use fullscreen for watching shows/movies
    with this player, and have had no problem with other players such
    as DivX.

    Okay, this is getting ridiculous. What kind of a company
    doesn't pay attention to such a serious bug in such a widespread
    product?
    This issue needs to be looked at immediately - many people
    simply have no fullscreen on their favorite movie/video sites!
    -->edit<--
    I have been able to circumvent the issue by going to
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
    , grabbing the uninstall_flash_player.exe file, running it, and
    installing the older 9r47 release from the FP9 Debug package (
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14266)
    including all older FP9 versions. The fullscreen works with this
    old release, but does not with the latest FP9 version (115).
    -->edit 2<--
    HD and high resolution (480p) do not work with the older
    version... this is not satisfactory. When can we expect 115 to be
    fixed?

  • Fullscreen thumbnail size

    When I went to the fullscreen editing mode, I made it so that I could scroll through 3 rows of pictures. But when I put the setting back the the default 1 row, the size of the thumbnails remained small. Is there any way that I can make them return to their original size?

    When in the full screen mode run the cursor to the top and the thumbnails and menu bar will display. To keep the thumbnails showing at all times go to the View menu and select Thumbnails->Always show. Or you can type, while in full screen mode, CommandOptionT and that will bring up both the toolbar and thumbnails.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Nokia 5800 Serious Problems not Solved??

    I have been using 5800 for over 4 months and I have updated my firmware whenever it is available but none of the firmware updates solved the following very serious problems that turned my phone into a useless thing:
    First thing is the text messaging problem:
    -While writing in Turkish language, while the number of letters in a SMS got higher and higher just a little bit(more than 50 characters), writing a SMS became painful, because it got slower and and slower so you cannot write your SMS properly and fast! The last thing that make me crazy is that I write a SMS more than 300 characters in over 10 MINUTES!!! (This problem must immediately be solved)
    I hoped that v21 update will solve the problem but it did not, my older Nokia 1110 can write SMS under a minute no matter how long is the SMS is...
    Second problem is the snyc between phonebook and calendar:
    -The problem is that you can add birthdays under persons in phonebook but why cannot we set those dirthdays as calendar events???!!!
    V21 neither solved this problem!
    Third problem flash not full screen!:
    - The last thing is that when ever I start a flash .swf file in works properly but when I try to change the resolution to full screen, a useless screen keyboard pops up and you cannot chose to close this, so in reality you cannot use flash .swf files fullscreen!
    The problems above are serious problems, that make the phone useless and must immediately be solved,
    DOES ANYBODY HAVE A SOLUTION FOR THE PROBLEMS ABOVE?
    THANKS FOR YOUR ANSWERS ANYWAY...

    The third problem there is a workaround: create a mini webpage with the following content::

  • Fullscreen landscape/portrait problem solved?

    In earlier versions of DPS there was problem when you press full screen in portrait-mode and then rotate the device, it never rotate and goes to fullscreen in landscape mode.
    Is it possible in the latest versions? And how is it done?
    BR

    Chris:
    What file format are those files? Also check those files with PS and see what Mode they are - under the Image->Mode menu item. That my give you an idea of what's causing the problem. With iPhoto quitting like it is take a look at the tip at the end of my signature. One quit at the wrong time might mess up the database file. Better safe than sorry.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current.

  • Fullscreen bugs in Air 2 apps under client Air 2.5 runtime?

    We produce video distribution apps handling DRM in Air 2.0
    We've  encountered quite a serious bug in our Air applications' handling of  Flash when going fullscreen.
    Under Air 2.0, our apps  were fully functional. No issues.
    After the upgrade to Air 2.5,  all PC installs no onger display video content in full screen when  prompted to do so.
    We have noticed the same error  occurs in AMP 1.8 and are yet to find an example of an Air application  that does not experience this issue.
    As the bug is  isolated to PC (not present on Mac at all), is it related to either:
    a) Flash handling of the Output protection enacted with this update or
    b)  h264 hardware decoding
    We have over 30K apps deployed  and seek information regarding a resolution for this asap.
    We have  drafted a workaround, but it is not an ideal situation.
    Is  Air 2.5 being updated again (within 48hrs)?

    Hello,
    I'm sorry you've run into this fullscreen playback bug.  We found this issue with AMP after the release of 2.5 (internal bug #2732895) and it will be fixed in our next release.  Adobe announced yesterday that an update to Flash Player would occur on or before November 9th.  Typically AIR and FP releases occur in tandem.
    In our testing, we were only able to reproduce the issue with Adobe's Media Player, attempts to reproduce using AOL, BBC iPlayer, or MovieFone were unsuccessful.  Could you point me to another example where this bug occurs?  I'd like to verify it's fixed on more than one application.
    I'm going to follow up with you via the forums private message system, you can also email me at [email protected]
    Thanks,

  • WARRANTY null and void? Seriously??

    Hi all, new to this so please forgive me if I have posted in the wrong forum.
    I dropped my phone and cracked the screen - is it true that I now have no warranty at all because of this?? Seriously I now have a phone for a further 21 months of my contract and am not covered for anything going wrong??

    Yes - the warranty covers the potential for manufacturing defects that come to light within the warranty period. Accidental damage is not covered by any warranty on any product. Your household insurance may cover this type of loss, or your contract with your phone provider might include insurance, otherwise you'll need to fund the repair/replacement from your own pocket.

  • Serious Performanc​e hit on RT (cFP 2120) using LV 8.5 compared to LV 8.2

    Hello,
    We have just finished a large project using LabView 8.2 and Compact FieldPoint (cFP) 2120 on a Windows XP Pro computer.
    The system developed controlled equipment that forms critical parts of a Concrete Plant here in Norway.
    2 Identical units whre installed controlling two almost (but not entirely) identical pieces of equipment.
    The project has been a great success, and used technologies such as: StateDiagrams (StateDiagram Toolkit) to describe the System Processes, Network Shared Variables to transfer approx. 50 different  pieces of non-critical information over WLAN to a LabView based Surveillance Program in a Control Room from both "machines".
    The CPU Load on the cFP was approx. 65 % which gives the ETS Realtime OS (RTOS) plenty of "room" to run its "maintenance threads".
    After the last installation, we decided to try to migrate the system to LabView 8.5 on another Computer running Windows Vista. The system ported nicely and run on our test cFP 2120 as well.
    We had done extensive performance / cPU Load tests on our 8.2 system, and new that in a particular setting the CPU Load was:
      *** 65% *** measured using the System Manager (disabling VI and Memory Monitioring).  (Absolutely max measured is 71 % when the system is running)
    When we did the same test on the cFP running the LV 8.5 compiled code and with the LV 8.5 software installed on the cFP, we where in for a chock:
    The CPU Load was *** 87% *** in the particular setting, and could run over 90%.
    This renders LV 8.5 useless for our controll task. A setback, as we had plan to port our current code using the Statechart Module that we had bought for LV 8.5.
    We also installed a VI to "Monitoring the CPU Usage of a LabVIEW Real-Time Target" found at this link:  http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/4713
    It turns oot that this VI gave us the same result as using the "System Manager" (if we summed the load for each priority), but also gave more info about the load at each priority.
    We of course did not run the System Manager at the same time, as this would cause a conflict: We either run the System Manager or the VI above. When the System Manager was run, the Vi above was
    disabled !
    We are running updating of the 50 Network Shared Variables in a Normal Priority Thread. The 9 StateDiagrams are each running in a Separate Thread started by including the VI for the StateDiagram in a  Timed Sequence with one frame: This gives all these Processes "Very High" Priorty and you can see that most of the work is done at this priorty level. The Very High Priorty level uses Single Process  Shared Variables with FIFO to send the variables to the Network Shared variables in the "Normal Priorty" Thread.
    The Shared Variabel Server is run on the PC in the Control Room and not on the cFP.
    Below you can see the Installed Components and the Performance Result for the cFP when Running configured for LV 8.2 and 8.5.
    For LV 8.5, the performance of each Priority Level is degraded with the same percentage (approx 30%) which is really serious.
    National Instruments Engineers: Please help identify / fix this problem and give us a Time frame for when the problem can be fixed!

    Hello,
    I have reproduced the problem in a minimalistic test application !
    Download the test from this link: http://objective.no/gostemp/lv_8_5_probleml.zip
    This is how the test looks: http://objective.no/gostemp/LV-8-2_8_5_Test_01_vi.​jpg
    The ZIP file contains the following files:
    a) LV-8-2_8_5_Test_01.vi    -  The test VI itself
    b) SK1_Host_Remote_Panel_Shared_Variables.lvlib   -   The Network Shared Variables that I use only one of in this test (SK1_Error_Code)
    c) Interprosess_Data.lvlib  -  The Single Process Shared variables that I use only one of in this test (Reported_Error_Code)
    I have not included a Project File and you need a Compact FieldPoint to test this. I have a cFP 2120.
    Now to the intersting figures:
    Compiled under LabView 8.2 this application runs with 21 % CPU Load as measured by the System Manager on the cFP 2120.
    Compiled under LabView 8.5 this application runs with 42 % CPU Load as measured by the System Manager on the cFP 2120.
    This is a dramatic degradation of Performance !
    I have not yet investigated if removing the Shared Variables will change this.
    NI: Please Help locating this problem !
    The only thought I have is this: Does LV 8.5 take care of the change of the Shared variables when the two .vlib libraries are moved to a 8,5 project ?

  • Error Message: Sorry, a serious error has occurred that...

    This seems to be a common problem, however, I have not found a fix. I am somewhat technologically savvy, but limited! Listed below are my specs and details to the problem.
    Software- Premiere Pro (Version 5.03) Recently updated
    OS- WIN7 Core 2 Duo CPU E8400 3.00GHz 4.00GB RAM
    Footage used- all types
    Error message text-
    Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires, Adobe Premiere Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your project.
    The problem-
    When attempting to start PP it allows me to start a new project, select setting, and sequences. However, as the program begins to start up the new project the error pops up. The only option is to click ok, which in turn locks up the program.
    Also any files that I have previous created also will not open properly.
    Also, I have recently lost a drive that contained many of my old PP projects. I've read that some people have this problem when losing a drive that once related to possible PP preferences and scratch disks...once again I am limited on understanding how that all works.
    I have restarted, cold boots, warm boots....clean uninstall, clean reinstall of PP and all components, updated chipset, display adaptor is up-to-date (NVIDIA GeForce 9300 GE) ...also I am an administrator of the workstation
    **Through my many failed attempts from reading forums I have also at sometimes received a RunTime Error R6025 (pure virtual function call)
    I have no 3rd party effects
    not using Mecury to my knowledge.?

    Has it worked OK in the past?  If so, try System Restore.
    While your computer might meet Adobe's minimum requirements, it is way underpowered to run Premiere Pro properly.

  • Error Message:  Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premier Pro to shut down.

    Hi. I'm having another serious problem with CS4 (the version that comes with CS5 when you don't have 64 bit capability. I just finished a project, had saved it, and then had switched over to Adobe Encoder to create a finished flash video (which worked perfectly). I shut down CS4, went home, tried to restart the main project to create a video from the same project (wanted to make an mpeg version as well) and got the following error message:
    Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Adobe Premier Pro to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project. Then the system shuts down.
    Not only can I not open the project I was working on, I cannot open any of my prior projects without receiving the same error.
    Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this issue and how to resolve it?
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
    By the way, is everyone else having the same amount of problems with this software? I've never had any software that has had so many problems from the beginning. My opinion of this software and Adobe in general has gone down substantially.

    Not enough information for anyone to even make a guess
