-opening position of CS1 "File Info" window-

I have actions in CS1 to open :
"Levels" window so I can individually adjust & save
"File info" window so I can individually add text & save 
The former window I can move & all following windows will open in new position.
The latter I can move but next image always opens centrally again.
Any way to make "File info" window open off to one side?
Thanks in advance.  regards jg

Probably not. Actions do not store any UI data, this is handled automatically by the program and it will eitehr use the last active position of a palette or the default one. What you see is probably meant to be this way (the info window being in the context of each specific image and thus using default position, the levels palette being a global panel and using the last active). You could at best try your graphics driver's dialog repositioning options ands see if the info window responds to it...

  • Can I change the position of the Get Info window?

    Can I change the position of the Get Info window?

    If you want to open the "Get Info" panel in the center of your screen, define the following Automator service and install it in the "Services" Folder of your User Library. This service will be available when you ctrl-click a file or folder in the pop-up menu and it will open the "Get Info" in the center of the screen.
    Open Automator and select New -> Service.
    Select: Service receives "files or Folders" in "Finder.app"
    Drag a "Run Apple script" action from the Actions pane -> Utilities onto the Workflow
    Paste the following script into the action, after (* Your script goes here *) and before "return input"
              tell application "Finder"
      activate
                        set {d1, d2, d3, d4} to (get bounds of window of desktop)
      open information window of item input
                        set {i1, i2, i3, i4} to (get bounds of information window 1)
                        set position of information window 1 to {d1 + (d3 - i3 + i1) / 2, d2 + (d4 - i4 + i2) / 2}
              end tell
    Save the service and name it e.g. "centeredGetInfo". It will be installed in your library -> Services.
    Now you can ctrl-click any File or Folder, and in the Services Section of the pop-up menu you will see your new service "centeredGetInfo", also in File ->Services in the Finder, when you select a Finder item.
    You can bind this service to a keyboard shortcut in the keyboard preferences and use it like the standard "Get Info"

  • File info window freezes

    My new computer has Yosemite 10.10.3 and I'm happy to say Elements 6 works with it.  But when I wanted information about a picture something happened that does not seem right.
    I opened the picture and went to File / File Info.  A window opened that asked for information about the picture.  The problem is that as soon as I clicked anywhere int he File Info window it froze.  Nothing happened.  Everything else seemed to continue working but when I clicked on the picture behind the file Info window, it did not come to the front.  I had to close photoshop to get rid of the file info window.  Is this problem common or perhaps I'm doing something wrong?
    Also, sometimes I need to know the date a picture was taken.  I thought there was a way to find that from file information on the computer but I don't remember how.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello A
    Have you tried creating a new account and see how your apps work in that User acct? (That will tell if your problem is systemwide or limited to your User acct.)
    Open System Preferences > Accounts > "+" make it an admin account.
    If this works, then log back into your problem account and navigate to ~(yourHome)/Library/Preferences and trash these two files:
    com.apple.finder.plist
    com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
    Then log out and back in again. Or restart.
    (You will have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.)
    Let us know.

  • In 10.8, the file info window's "Kind:" read "Application"/etc. for 64-bit items and "Application (32-bit)"/etc. for 32-bit items. The "(32-bit)" part seems to have been lost in Mavericks. How do I determine if an item is 32 or 64-bit in Mavericks?

    In 10.8, the file info window’s “Kind:” read “Application”/etc. for 64-bit items and “Application (32-bit)”/etc. for 32-bit items.
    The “(32-bit)” part seems to have been lost in Mavericks. How do I determine if an item is 32 or 64-bit in Mavericks?

    1. Launch System Information into its 'report' mode. (A quick way to do this is by holding down the option key while clicking on the Apple menu item, which causes "About this Mac" to change to that.)
    2. From the list on the left, under "Software" click on "Applications." (If you don't see the Applications item, click on "Show more information" from the "File" menu.)
    3. Wait a minute or so for the report to finish.
    4. The last column in the report is "64-bit (Intel)." (You may need to scroll the window to the right to see it.) Click on that heading to sort the list alphabetically. Anything with a "no" is 32 bit.

  • Show File Info window disappearing

    I am trying to access a Pages document in a file sharing arrangement, but Pages won't allow me to access it.  I checked permissions on the Pages document and need to add permissions, but the Show File Info window closes before I can do anything to change permissions.

    Eversave.app was the problem.  It apparently was causing the issue - closed the app, problem disappeared.

    J,
    Not to dodge the issue, but you are having an OS problem, not a Pages problem. If nobody comes along here with an explanation, you might do well to post in the Snow Leopard discussion area, assuming your profile is correct.

  • Blank File Info window

    I'm using Windows XP and InDesign CS 6. Whenever I go to File>File Info... or if I press AltShiftCtrl+I, I get a useless blank File Info window staring at me. It shows up as a gray page and there are no buttons to click on. I have to hit Escape to get out of it. Please any help would be appreciated on how to solve this issue, which I've been having since InDesign CS5.

  • "File info" window displays nothing for photographs

    I am unable to access photograph metadata  in InDesign CS5.5. when I go to the "Info" window (F8),  click on the drop-down menu, and click on "File  Info,", I get a pop-up window with nothing in it.  In the banner on top it does say  "File Information for…" and then lists the file name.
    This problem came to light when I was trying to set up live captions for photographs and couldn't get  the metadata to populate correctly.  Any ideas?

    Here's a screen shot.  Thanks.

  • Opening folder with video files flickers window

    When I double click on the folder that has the video footage files the window of that folder start flickering for 3-5 seconds. If I open the second time the same folder, then its OK. It always happens to the new folder that was not open recently. First time it happened few months ago and Apple support told me to delete all preference files. I did and it stopped doing it up until now.
    Did anyone have the same and is there another solution then deleting preference files all the time. Maybe its a memory issues?
    Thanks,

  • Unable to open .xls and .xlsx files from windows explorer or from Microsoft outlook using MS Office 2007

    When I double click on an .xls or .xlsx file Excel will open up, but I never see the file open up.
    If I right click on the excel file and say open with excel I then get the following error:
    "Windows cannot find file c:\test\test.xls.  Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again...."
    Everywhere I looked seems to indicate the file associations was messed up so per a technical document I deleted the .xls and .xlsx association and then ran the Office 2007 repair and rebooted.  Still not working even after office puts the .xls and .xlsx
    file associations in.
    Here is what I see the in .xls and .xlsx for the &Open action:
    Application: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\EXCEL.EXE" /e
    UseDDE: Checked
    DDE Message: [open("%1")]
    Any guidance would be appreciated!

    In the ened I had to go into Excel Options, Advanced, General, and uncheck the "ignore other applicaitons....".  BUT this only worked after doing the Office 2007 repair.
