Objects not showing in Layers panel

Hi,
I am using Indesign CS4 on a Mac 10.6.8. I have a problem with my layer panel --> it does not show a disclosure triangle, hence i cannot expand a layer to show its objects. The objects are definitely on the layer - if I click "select all objects on layer" all objects are indeed selected so technically they are on the layer --> i just can't see the drop down in the layers panel.
I tried simple things such as enlarging the panel to checking for missing fonts (i read that there are often problems w/ Verdana in the layers panel..) to restoring the preference settings.. nothing worked and i couldn't find a single forum entry on this issue..
The file i'm using is from a plug-in for a photo book, however, the layers panel does not work correctly even if i create an entire new document..
In Illustrator it works perfectly, showing all objects and paths on a layer..
Thanks soo much for your input and help!
Laura

Oh, I see. I didn't realize that since in my CS4 Illustrator I have already the "enhanced" layers panel.. So how do I re-assign existing objects to a new/different layer then if not by drag-and-drop in the panel?
Many Thanks!!

  • CS4, script files are not showing in script panel

    I dont ever use scripts but I did have one i downloaded to use for CS3.  Its been a while but I thought I just dropped it into the Scripts folder and it would show up in the scripts panel in InDesign.  I just put that same script in my new CS4 scripts folder and its not showing up.  I even restarted ID to make sure and it still doesnt.  Is there something im forgetting?

    CS4 has a slightly different model.
    In the Scripts folder, there is a folder called "Scripts Panel". For scripts to show within the Scripts panel in InDesign, place your scripts within this internal folder.

  • Flash buttons not showing/hiding layers in Firefox

    Before anyone says to use the search tool, I did that, even googled the problem and no suggestions have yet to work. here is the page http://www.preziosidevelopment.com/dchs/dchs.html it works flawlessly in internet explorer, but fails to work at all in firefox. All the buttons being nested inside table cells is another byproduct of having to design for firefox, if there is a better way of setting those up so they display properly in firefox feel free to let me know. I'm a designer not a coder, so please keep that in mind. Just to clarify, the only problem I am currently having is the first two buttons are not showing/hiding my layers in firefox as they do in internet explorer. Thanks for any help.
    Richard Preziosi

    I'm a designer not a coder, so please keep that in mind.
    Here's a sincere suggestion.  Do not use Flash buttons for anything.  Really.  People who don't have Flash will not see the buttons or be able to trigger anything.  Search engines will not see any links that may be embedded in those buttons nor will assistive screen devices.  As a result of these as well as other maintenance problems that would affect *you* when you try to maintain them, Adobe has removed them entirely from CS4 (and I say good riddance).  Is it possible for you to rethink this entire approach using CSS styled text or ordinary graphic buttons?

  • New installed components not showing in components panel in cs4

    Hi,
    I'm currently reading the excellent book "ActionScript 3.0
    Quick Reference Guide". In some chapters, the authors ask us to
    install third-party components. They install well in the Extension
    Manager CS4, but for a reason I don't know, they're not showing in
    the Components panel...
    I use Flash CS4... but I also have Flash 8 and Flash CS3
    installed (in fact, all the suites) and it never caused problems
    before, so I don't think that's the problem... By the way, if I
    install them in CS3, they show up in the panel.
    FYI, I have a French Canadian Windows XP version and I work
    with English Flash versions...
    Particularly, the extensions I tried are:
    - as3webservice by Pieter Michels (wellconsidered.com);
    - Yahoo! Astra Library (by Yahoo!, of course);
    - Accordion Panel V3AS3 (by JumpeyeComponents).
    Thank you.

    Well, we're making progress...
    No, there're not in that folder, but from what I understand,
    they shouldn't be there either, because in that folder, it's the
    place for the default ones (that comes with Flash).
    The ones that we add are in the Documents and Settings
    folder:
    So, since I installed the same components in Flash CS3 and
    Flash CS4 (because they weren't working in CS4), they appear in:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Nelson Therrien\Local
    Settings\Application Data\Adobe\Flash
    CS3\en\Configuration\Components... Good.
    Now, do they appear in Flash CS4 (path C:\Documents and
    Settings\Nelson Therrien\Local Settings\Application
    Data\Adobe\Flash CS4\en\Configuration\Components)... NO!!
    BUT!! I don't know if it's because I tried the French version
    once or because I have a French Operating System, but I also have a
    fr folder (full path: C:\Documents and Settings\Nelson
    Therrien\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\Flash
    CS4\fr\Configuration\Components) and... THEY APPEAR THERE!!
    So, I copied them from the fr folder to the en folder and
    Voilà! They now appear inside the Flash CS4 Components
    Panel...!
    Thank you for pointing me in the right direction!

  • Object not showing up when published

    Hi,
    I have finally managed to get a Facebook "Like" button onto my website but the problem I have now is that the text for the button merges into my background fill which is grey. I have tried creating a bar of colour to fit behind the HTML snippet and it looks great in iWeb edit mode but when I publish it, the block of colour doesn't appear. Can anyone tell me how I can get this to show up or change just a section of my page background or if it's possible to change the colour of the text in a FB Like button. Thank you!

    Thanks Roddy, I've tried that and it does improve things a bit. This is what I get with the "dark" option selected which is acceptable to a degree but.....
    .....this is what I'm really trying to achieve, which shows up as shown here, when working in iWeb editing but does not show the colour-filled shape when I publish it.

  • Indesign CS5.5 can't select objects, they don't show in layers panel either

    I received an .indd file from a client. There are certain objects that I can't select. I know they aren't locked because I can't select "Unlock all on spread." The weird thing is, the objects don't show up in the layer panel. If I uncheck the layer's eye, they disappear. But if I uncheck the eyes of all the individual objects within the layer, the objects I can't select are still visible. I'm attaching a screenshot. Can someone help please?

    The items are on a mster page.
    In the Pages Panel, go to the master associated with the page you're on, there you'll find the things you're after.

  • Embedded Graphics do not show in Links Panel?

    I'm guessing this is an embedded graphic. I received a packaged file for print, all is fine, but I'm pondering the "image" shown. (I was curious how they formatted the rules and type and started selecting)
    After removing everything else from the document, Find Font show no fonts used; the links panel is empty; info for the frame lists nothing; it is not outlined type. One layer; show hidden characters is on.
    The file package report lists Links and Images: 1 link (a stock photo used on page 1), 0 missing, 0 embedded.

    I've been playing with building my own "Info" panel. It isn't as pretty as the built-in one, but it gives me better "raw" file format information in some cases. It would be interesting to see what it reports as the object type, if you want to send me your doc ...

  • Ie9 flash object not showing when wmode is set

    I'm searching and searching but do not find any solution for this.
    We're having a flex web application that is working fine until now. We're using until recently the google maps flash api, unfortunately this is already deprecated and will disappear completely in september 2014. Therefor we moved the whole integration to the js v3 api, which is working fine. The whole thing is an overlay over the application, since everything is moved to js, I added the property wmode to the object in html and set it to opaque in order to be able to layer everything. It's working fine for most people, but some (including my boss) are seeing a blank screen. Seems that nothing happens (although the swf loads), and I can not figure out why. Same browser (ie 9 or 10), same flash player version (11.6.xxx). Browser cache cleared, flash player cache cleared...
    Somebody having a clue? Removing the wmode-property solves the issue, but then I'm not be able to get my map on top of the application.
    The swf is definetly loading since I see calls made to the server in order to login etc. It's also not a flash player issue. The swf-file is directly accessable and rendering if done so.
    Thanks

    This means that the SWF is written so that it only works when
    embedded in a web page. When you add the SWF to the stage as a
    stand-alone display object using addChild() it is not being hosted
    in the web page.
    You have 2 options:
    1. Modify the SWF code (if possible) to remove the
    ExternalInterface requirement. You can write code in your AIR
    application javascript to subscribe directly to events from the SWF
    using addListener() and call functions directly on the SWF object
    (Flash/Actionscript is not my primary development environment... so
    if I have gotten the terminology wrong I apologize, but I HAVE
    written a flash application that worked as I describe). My SWF
    actually works embedded in HTML or not using the code "if
    (ExternalInterface.available) {
    ExternalInterface.addCallback("setIsPlaying", setIsPlaying ); }"
    2) Somehow add a HTMLLoader in a new child window (with
    transparent = false) to the stage as a new child. I have not yet
    figured out exactly how to do this, so If anyone can provide
    information on how to do this, I too would be appreciative.

  • Line objects not showing in pdf output in xmlp 5.6.1

    Hello,
    Is there a bug or just a version issue when trying to produce pdf output using xmlp 5.6.1 Enterprise Edition from a template built in xmlp 5.6.2 stand alone? Different versions of pdf too. The xmlp 5.6.1 EE uses Adobe 7.0.7 and I use 7.0.0 for my dpf output. The issue is that the template built using 5.6.2 has line objects in the rtf file. When this template is registered in xmlp 5.6.1 EE and the report is generated the lines don't show up in the pdf.
    Any one?

    I opened a TAR and here is the answer. My template definition was wrong because I directly used my data template xml file to define my template using template builder.
    Here are all the steps to use XML data template under apps.
    To use data templates, do the following:
    1- Create the data template similar to the following structure
    2- Login to responsibility "XML PUBLISHER ADMINISTRATOR" -> Data Definition
    2.1 upload the data template (that is made in step1)
    2.2 Insert a new code that is not find the concurrent request short name.
    3- Login to system administrator -> concurrent -> program -> define (define a new concurrent request as following)
    3.1 use execute XDODTEXE (it takes the data definition in step 2 and shall execute the query to obtain XML output)
    3.2 Output format = XML
    3.3 request short name as that defined in step (2.2)
    4- Add the request to a request group
    5- The the concurrent request and get the created XML output
    6- Use the created XML Output in (step 5) to create your template layout using Template builder vers
    ion 5.5
    7- After creating the template go to responsibility "XML PUBLISHER ADMINISTRATOR" -> Templates
    7.1 define a new template
    7.2 use the same data definition that you created at (step 2)
    7.3 Use the same code as in step (2.2)
    After all the above steps you shall get the output as you wish. The main link between Data template and the concurrent request that execute the data template to generate the XML output is the request short name and the data template code.
    Hint:
    request short name = data template code.
