Objects won't align with origin

I suddenly can't get the corner node of a rectangle to coincide with the upper left corner of the artboard - it offsets by 0.5 px in both directions. Tried quitting and restarting. I wonder if this is being controlled by a preference - I looked through the pref windows and couldn't find anything that fixed the problem. Anyone know what's happening?

It is meant to create sharp edges for straight horizontal or vertical lines. The problem is, that when aligning points to pixels, the points will be set exactly in the middle of two adjoining pixels. But the standard stroke then is aligned on the middle of the path. So a 1-pixel stroke will be blurred. By moving the points by a half pixel, this is corrected automatically. You should find further information in the manual and maybe even a movie.

Images on sightseeing.html won't align with the column margins.

All six parts of the Bayside Beat tutorial were great!!! The only problem I had was the images on the sightseeing.html page won't align with the column margins. They won't move all the way to the left or right. In design view they align with the margins correctly, but in Live view mode or when viewed in a browser there is a space between the margin and the images. The space is constant and doesn't vary with the width of the browser.
I unzipped the final version of the site to a new folder. I viewed it in Chrome and in Explorer 11 and the images still won't align with the margins. I'm using window 8.1 and DW CC6.
It's not a big deal, because I learned many things from the tutoral, but I still would like to know what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks for any help.

Glad you enjoyed the tutorial videos.
Just looking at the screenshot of Live view, I would say that the problem is you haven't set the left margin in the floatleft class to zero. The image is wrapped in a <figure> element. Most browsers add a default 40px left margin to <figure>. Setting the margin to zero in a class overrides the default.

Hdr photos not aligning with original non-hdr image iPhone6

Why are hdr photos not aligning with their original non-hdr source image in iPhone6? I've found that when I overlay the two in gimp, there's a misalignment of several pixels. Previously with my iPhone4 on iOS7 both the original image & its corresponding hdr version always aligned perfectly so I could easily make adjustments between the two versions to create the final image I wanted. Has anyone else noticed this discrepancy?

I figured out the answer.
It turns out I had accidentally enabled the 'chrome' filter on all of the pictures I was taking. The icon with the 3 overlapping circles at the bottom right in the camera app were in color, indicating I had a filter on. Another thing I was not aware of oops.
That is why my pics all seemed to have extra contrast. The chrome filter was close enough to the original that I thought it was actually HDR, being unfamilar with how HDR should look.
If I had set something like black and white as a filter I would have realized what was going on sooner.
I also figured out that HDR was actually saving both of my photos. Scanning through my library I found a few duplicate images. As mentioned above, the HDR version has a little rectangular icon with 'HDR'.
Sorry for the confusion and I hope this helped somebody!
Thank you for your courage

PCI G4 won't boot with original cds

I have an older G4 400mhz model I haven't touched in some time so I gave it to my neighbor's son along with the original disks and I think 10.2. It no longer has any OS9 software on it but the kid got a couple of old games and wants to play them but their for OS9.
Long story short, I can't get OS9 to install because the G4 won't boot from any cd/dvd other than the commercial OSX disk. I've tried booting from the original install disk, the software restore disk, and an OS9 disk (disk with big orange 9 on it) but all I get is a grey screen. No folder with question mark, no giving up and just booting from the HD, nothing but grey screen. Any suggestions?
It's been a looooong time since I dealt with OS9 so I don't remember all the voodoo that had to be done.

Hi, Dave -
Some Macs have exhibited problems where, after their firmware has been updated, the machine won't boot to older versions of OS 9. This does not apply to the G4 in question, since there has been no firmware update applicable to the G4 PCI models.
Whether or not the hard drive has had OS 9 drivers installed should have no effect on the machine's ability to boot to an OS 9 install CD, only on the ability of the OS on such a CD to mount the drive.
RAM is not an issue - if it works for OSX, it works for OS 9.
That leaves few things. Possibilities include -
• an attached device that OS 9 does not support. Try disconnecting everything except monitor, keyboard, and mouse. If the machine was equipped with a wireless mouse or keyboard, replace those with wired ones, ones suitable for use in OS 9.
• an added PCI card that's interfereing. This can also include a replacement graphics card - if that was done, try reverting to the original card.
• a too-weak or dead internal battery. This can happen if the one in it is old, especially if the machine had been left unplugged for a while. Try replacing the battery - you can get a replacement at places like Radio Shack for about US$15, cheaper on line. While replacing the battery, reset the CUDA -
Article #95065 - G4 (PCI) - Resetting Cuda
Article #95066 - G4 (PCI) - Resetting the Logic Board
• a resetting of PRAM may help. In case you no longer remember how to do that - restart or boot; immediately press and hold down the Command-Option-P-R keys, keep them held down until you've heard three additional sets of startup chimes. Then release the keys and let startup resume.

C8180 won't align with white paper

Hi just bought a used C8180. The print test shows blank for light cyan and cyan and white stripes forj light magenta and magenta. I replaced all cartriges with new ones. I've run numerouse printhead cleaning and self test reports. Black print is fine.
Photos are horrible.
When trying to align the printer, it gives the error of "use clean white paper". The white paper is 96bright and new.
I've turned the unit off and on, reinserted the cartridges.
What else?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi,
The printer uses a colored light to align the printhead. If the required color (in this case Cyan) is not printing - the printer cannot complete the alignment. If the printer does not know there is a problem, then it thing you are using a paper other than white.
It appears that the printhead of the printer is no longer functioning.

I7 17" shuts down and won`t reinstall with original Discs. HD failure?

hi ,,,first time post here .....thanks for any help .
My Macbook Pro 17" 7200 RPM 500 GB laptop is out of commision . I think it was running 10.6.7 but I can`t check anymore
I can`t get it to reinstall and I`ve already erased the HD in an attempt to get it to accept a clean install.
Here`s what I have . S/N C02CW0E9DC7C . Bought it june 2010
Started the curtain drop quitting 6 mos ago .
Apple repair (in Brasil) deemed it bad memory and replaced the memory ... returned it to me with the same problem .
I did the clean install myself at that time ... all good until it started quitting again a month ago.
Things got really bad with quitting and beachballing ...took it to a genius bar in NY ...
Diagnosis "Keys out of order"
They offered to reinstall the software (under applecare) but i decided to do it myself when I got off of the road allowing for a complete backup.
It then got so bad that it wouldn`t even start up ... maybe once in 7 tries I was able to get to my desktop.
I made it through some backing up and set about to do the clean install .....
here`s what happened
Here are the messages I got when I loaded the disc and tried to reinstall
message 1
"the contents of this disc can`t be changed
mac osx couldn`t be installed on this drive"
I clicked on disk repair and got this
message 2
"keys out of order HD could not be repaired
Disk utility can`t repair this disk"
I then erased the HD and tried to install the disc again .
This time it looked good for a minute ... the blue bar on the bottom went from "39 minutes remaining" to 33 minutes or so then quit with ...
message 3
"an error occured while installing Mac osx"
the screen went light blue and I waited a few minutes until the machine shut down by itself
I tried again and ...
message 4
"install failed "(with the yellow warning triangle)
"the installer could not copy the necessary support files
click restart to restart your computer and try again"
So .. I followed the prompt but when I clicked on restart ... the machine did nothing ... the mouse command was ignored.
I had to do a forced shutdown and restart the machine while pressing on the mousepad to get the disc to eject.
Now it powers up with a gray screen and a question mark .
Is it possible to diagnose this as a HD failure ?

Original poster here again ..
In surfing ... I found this comment in another thread ...
Relevent ?
thanks, Paul
Why would I need a new HD when it worked fine one day and the only change was the attempted upgrade?
I am not an expert on this, but used to see a lot of posts about Norton Utilities killing Mac OSX HDs, and, iirc, "keys" was one of the issues. Apparently the directory can be damaged to the degree that it cannot be repaired, effectively rendering the HD useless.

Margins on print copies from HP Officejet Pro 8600 Printer are not aligned with original document

My HP Office ject Pro 8600 Printer is not printing the same margins as my original document. The left margin on the print copy is 3/4" too far to the right. The margin on the right is too far right and the text is being printed off the page! The problem seemed to start when I loaded Avery Labels to print. I run a non-profit and need to make copies asap for a sponsorship letter for a fundraising event.

2nd IPOD won't sync with original library

How do I sync with an existing library. I bought a second Ipod to travel with but cannot copy over any of my purchased songs.

Why not? What happens when you plug it in? It should be able to sync out of your library just like your other iPod. So tell us how exactly you are trying to do it and what happens when you do.

InDesign CS5 - Text won't align with shape

I've created shapes in InDesign CS5 and then added text boxes (separate elements). When I try to align the text and the shape, the text box acts as if the wrap function is on and the text is not visible. I've checked and the settings for both the shape and the text box are set to "no wrap."
I've tried searching for a solution online, but the answers I get are mostly related to wrapping text around a shape or other non-related issues.

Yes - I did that first, thinking I was "hiding" the text. But the text is in front...
The advice by Willi Adelberger helped - putting the text directly into the shape seems to be working, though I noticed that the text is still not quite aligned correctly...

Project background doesn't align with stage after rescaling project

Hello,
I think I discovered a bug that may or may not have been resolved in later versions of Captivate. I'm using Captivate 5 (5.0.3.631) and as much as I'd like to have a newer version, my employer only has this version purchased right now. I'm posting this here because I realize this may not be a bug and there may be a workaround, in which case maybe I can learn something!
The issue appeared when I recently had to rescale my project to make room for a closed captions popup area at the bottom of the stage. (I don't want it to overlap previously positioned content.) Do do this, I rescaled my project to be 25 pixels taller than it was previously, and I selected the resize option to keep the already placed project contents aligned at the top left of the project rather than to scale everything to fit. Just as I hoped, this extended the stage out from the bottom by 25 pixels, much like resizing a canvas property in photoshop.
I then edited my project background images to match the new project stage dimensions in order to cover up the now visible 25-pixel-tall strip of uncovered stage. I imported the new background image onto my master slide in the same way I placed the original one, and this is where the problem appears. The taller image, configured as a "project background", will not align with the stage anymore. Instead, it's hanging off the top of the stage by 13 pixels and not reaching the bottom of the stage by 12 pixels (adding up to the 25 pixels I increased the project height). I purposefully placed the image as a project background rather than just dragging it on the stage of the master slide. My reasons for doing so are somewhat complicated, but mainly are because I need the master slide background to not interfere with the Z-order of items on the regular slides. Apparently a master slide image on the stage of a master slide will cover up items set to display for the rest of the project. Perhaps this is a bug, too?
Anyway, back to the problem at hand... I had everything working fine before I rescaled my project, but now the imported background image won't align with the stage. Because it's set as a project background, there is no way to reposition it on the stage... it just kind of lands where it lands. It appears that when I rescaled the project, Captivate remembered where the center of the "old" sized project was and didn't recalculate the center of the "new" rescaled project. So, when I place a larger image in the master slide (as a project background), it is centering it where the old, smaller project used to be... thus resulting in the larger image to not be centered on the stage.
I figured out a workaround in the mean time by placing the background image on the stage of the master slide (not as aproject background), and by moving more things to the master slide that I don't want to be covered up. This actually seems to be a more elegant solution that what I had previously, but I'd still like to know if what I'm experiencing is a bug or not.

Ok just found a workaround/solution.
(always happens right after I ask, for some reason).
Rescaled my project but kept the size and positions the "same and centered".
Then I replaced all my background images with bigger versions (previously I had cropped them at the right and bottom).
Now my backgrounds were all great, but all my objects were too low.
All I had to do was ctrl+A to select everything on a slide, and then change the Y value for the whole bunch to zero.
This magically placed all objects in their correct respective spots.
Hope that helps someone out!

Objects no longer auto-aligning with each other

Hi there,
I'm new to Adobe Illustrator CS4 and desperately need expertise. I think the settings got messed with, because now whenever I move an object, it no longer tries to "auto align" with nearby objects or their borders. I don't know what this feature is called, but it's when a smaller circle will kind of "snap" to the center of a larger circle, or I believe it will also show when their boundaries are tangent.
Apologies for my noobishness, but how do I turn feature this back on? I find the program very hard to use without it.
Many blessings for your generous explanation and kindness.

After I retouch a pic, it won't print with the retouches. It prints the original. What am I doing wrong?

After I retouch a pic, it won't print with the retouches. It still prints the original pic. What am I doing wrong?

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on eight different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.

The inline line object in the header is offset in facing pages. How can I make it align with the outer margin?

I have a Pages document with a header that contains both text and a line (a shape, inline) below the text. When I make the document two-sided (facing pages), with a 1" inside margin and a .75" outside margin, the line offsets either left or right in each section of the document. When a section starts with a right-hand page, the line is right justified on ALL the pages in the section (1" from the left and .75" from the right), even though it should be .75" from the LEFT on the LEFT-HAND pages. When a section starts with a left-hand page, the line is left justified on ALL the pages in the section.
Is there any way to get the header line to align with the margins properly in facing pages?

Hi Debra,
Click on Inspector > Layout > Section > Configuration
Is there a tick in 'Left and right pages are different'?
Please post a screen shot of your headers. That will help to show what you are trying to achieve.
To take a screen shot, hold down the shift and command keys, then type 4. The cursor will change to crosshairs. Release the shift and command keys. Drag over that part of your screen then release the mouse/trackpad. A screen shot will appear on your desktop. In a reply to a message, click on the camera icon in the Toolbar above your reply and
Choose File > Choose > Insert Image
You may have to try this twice. Camera icon sometimes needs a wake-up call, but works the second time.
Remove any personal details before taking the screen shot.
Regards,
Ian.

How do you not align with the biggest bounding box?

This is driving me up the wall, I know a way around it, but at some point later in this project the work around won't be efficient enough.
Ok here is the problem, I have four objects that are going to be large oversized buttons on a website. Inside these buttons (which are square) I have placed a picture, as the picture is larger than the button area I have duplicated the button box and made it a clipping mask for the picture. I have aligned it all up and grouped everything for one button together as one big group. I have done this for each button, so now all buttons are made up of a group of objects.
The problem is because these images are too big for the buttons and I have clipped them there bounding box is bigger than the buttons so when I come to align them or distribute them it all goes wrong. Why? Well the distribution/alignment goes on the combined area bounding box, in this case the pictures are much bigger so it's pretty much there bounding boxes that everything is getting aligned with. In InDesign it treats the bounding boxes of objects within a clipping mask as being the size of the clipping mask, which is exactly what I want to do here. This seems a massive limitation and I can't see why I would ever want to distribute or align with something that I am effectivly removing from the document.
The work around is quite simple, I can take everything out of the button boxes, align the button boxes and then put everything back in the button boxes. This would be acceptable if I only had to do it once, but if (and I probably will) want to tweak the layout as I go it's going to be a pain in the rear.
Any ideas?

I could pre-crop the images in PS but then I loose the ease of changing them in Illustrator. I always try and do as much work as possible in Illustrator so I am able to undo or change things quickly, I am not a big fan of the finality of working with raster images.
The real issue is that the client is comming to look at some mockups and if they ask for changes, which we usually do there and then, we will look a bit silly as we complete destruct and then re-construct each object.
If those align scripts work how I am thinking I might make 4 place holder graphics (that I switch off when I am finished) and centre align each button to those with the scripts.
Illustrator should just be have an option to align the visable layers or items only. I would even accept the ability that when you switch off a layer in a group (say these pictures where there bounding box goes beyond that of the clipping mask) so your only active layer is a box the same size as your clipping mask and so that is the only bounding box that gets used, but no the off layers still have active bounding boxes.
