Overlay visible in "normal" state only

I created an overlay TIFF in Photoshop - I placed an mpeg2 video (which I created with FCP and Motion and then compressed in Compressor) as the background and I drug my TIFF in as the overlay.
I go into Menu view in DVDSP and the only version of my overlay that is visible is the "normal" state if I drag the opacity up. The activated and the selected states do not appear. I have clicked alternately on the buttons in the lower right of the menu tab to see any change as well as have selected the different button states under the VIEW>BUTTON STATE pull down menu - to no avail. The only button state which I can see is the Normal state and that is just because I have drug the opacity up.

Have you created a button over the area of the highlights? Is the selected and activated states set to full opacity (15) and is the color set to something that will standout against the background?

I just started using a new version of Illustrator and the text I am creating has a pink box behind, looks to be about the depth of the normal linespace, it is not visible in outline view, only in preview. What is it and how do I get rid of it?

Hi Larry. I see. It is a file I have worked on previously, and the font is Myriad which I though came with the system. I just changed to Myriad Pro and the pink box disappeared. Thanks for the assistance, I know a new thing!

Tween the icon you are over to its normal state

I have this snippet of code I've been running successfuly on my image buttons grouped into one MC.
It applies changes to the buttons I am not rolling over, i.e. if I were to roll over a button the rest of the buttons in the group would dim and blur and etc, but not the button I am over.
All worked fine until I decided to group buttons one more time.
With my limited knowledge of AS3 I was able to put all the actions to the buttons except into making the button I am over to stay the way it is.
In my understanding the problem is in the line:
// target = tween the icon you are over to its normal state
TweenMax.to(e.target, .5, {alpha: 1, blurFilter:{blurX:0, blurY:0}, colorMatrixFilter:{colorize:0x000000, amount:0, brightness:1.25, saturation:1}, ease:Sine.easeOut});
particularly in properly specifiying e.target
I tried a few variations but nothing seemed to work.
What would be a proper code to go two levels deep into an MC?
Below is my full code:
IMGS_COLLAGE.buttonMode=true;
IMGS_COLLAGE.useHandCursor = true;
IMGS_COLLAGE.imgORIGINAL_collage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, navOver);
IMGS_COLLAGE.imgORIGINAL_collage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, navOut);
function navOver(e:MouseEvent):void
          //loop through all icons
          for (var i in IMGS_COLLAGE.imgORIGINAL_collage)
                    //tween out all icons
                    TweenMax.to(IMGS_COLLAGE.imgORIGINAL_collage[i], .2, {alpha:.85, blurFilter:{blurX:11, blurY:11}, colorMatrixFilter:{colorize:0x000000, amount:0.25, brightness:0.65, saturation:0.7}, ease:Sine.easeOut});
                    //                                target = tween the icon you are over to its normal state
                    TweenMax.to(e.target, .5, {alpha: 1, blurFilter:{blurX:0, blurY:0}, colorMatrixFilter:{colorize:0x000000, amount:0, brightness:1.25, saturation:1}, ease:Sine.easeOut});
function navOut(e:MouseEvent):void
          for (var i in IMGS_COLLAGE.imgORIGINAL_collage)
                    //tween out all icons to a normal state
                    TweenMax.to(IMGS_COLLAGE.imgORIGINAL_collage[i], .5, {alpha: 1, blurFilter:{blurX:0, blurY:0}, colorMatrixFilter:{colorize:0x000000, amount:0, brightness:1, saturation:1}, ease:Sine.easeOut});

P.S.
While further working on the project I realised that sinse there are two img collages with the same navOver and navOut setting I should use one line of code.
Both of those images collages are located inside the IMGS_COLLAGE so I thought of deleting imgORIGINAL_collage out of IMGS_COLLAGE.imgORIGINAL_collage but it did not work.
So now I have two identical blocks of code for two image collages. Is there a way to unify them since both of them are located in IMGS_COLLAGE mc?
Here is how the code looks now:
// makes a hand cursor appear over a mc acting as a button for all the buttons inside the IMGS_COLLAGE.
IMGS_COLLAGE.buttonMode=true;
IMGS_COLLAGE.useHandCursor = true;
IMGS_COLLAGE.imgORIGINAL_collage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, navOver_ORIGINAL);
IMGS_COLLAGE.imgORIGINAL_collage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, navOut_ORIGINAL);
//set up a vars object to hold all the properties of the icons in normal state
//since we use these properties twice it makes sense to define them only once

                    //target = tween the icon you are over to its normal state

Transparent normal state button

I'm trying to use a logo as the selected state of my buttons. During the normal state I want this to be transparent. It seems like I'm missing something really easy here, but I just can't figure it out. I've tried making a custom shape with the 4 layers in photoshop, but all I could get was the logo to change colors. I don't want the logo to change colors, just to appear when the button is selected and go away when it's not. It's a three color logo and I'm using DVDSP 3. Thanks in advance.

There are two ways that you can do this without resorting to using a layer based shape or a layer based menu.
First, you need to decide if it is important for the logo to appear in full colour or if you can get away with a single colour instance of it appearing. If the answer to this is that a single colour is OK, then use a standard overlay menu. Otehrwise, try using a masked overlay menu (there are limitations...)
With a standard overlay, the background image is as you want it to appear without anything selected - all shapes and text, etc, should be in place as if no button is chosen.
You then create the overlay, which is a simple .pict file that is the size of the menu. On this you simply place as many instances of the logo as you need - create them in black or grayscale and don't add anything else. The overlay will be mostly white with the black or gray shapes on it.
Add this to your menu in DVDSP and drag out the button rectangles to cover the background text and the overlay shape. When the button is selected, the logo shape will show up, but will not show in the normal state.
You can get the logo to be whatever colour you need by using the colour mapping within the property inspector for the button.
If you definitley need a full colour logo to appear, you can either use a layer based photoshop menu, or use overlay masks:

be aware that there are some limitations when using the masking technique - but all is explained in that tutorial.

Editing the normal state of a button

It seems that whenever I edit the rollover state of a button, I accidentally change the normal state. When I try to duplicate the mistake to fix my earlier one, I can't change the normal state, no matter what I seem to try.
Can anyone help?

I'd try restoring your InDesign preferences as a common troubleshooting solution:

Accordion items missing on normal state

Hi
I have created a side menu using the accordion widget, with images in each accordion item. Everything works fine in preview mode, but does not work on publish. I aslo tried exporting to HTML locally to see if it was a problem with missing files, but the same problem occurs.
The accordion only works properly on the ititial home page. When you go to any other page, most of the menu items disapear. Well, their normal state images do, the rollover and mouse down images appear still.
Here is an image trying to explain the problem. or just go to http://liamneville.businesscatalyst.com to see it first hand.
I have tried viewing the site in Firefox, Safari and Chrome. All the same issue. Any help would be much appreciated!

Dear Kavana,
In almost all situations the reason to your this issue can be found in
notes 136754 or 152813.
Mostly, the documents are included in a payment proposal and will
therefore not show up in F-44.
You can check which items are blocked by payment proposal in two
ways:
In table REGUP (Processed items from payment program), you can check
which items are blocked by payment proposals (display via SE16 or SE17,
selection on vendor (LIFNR), company code (ZBUKR) and document number
(BELNR).
I hope this can help You.

How do I remove the "normal state" image after applying a "rollover state" image?

I want to make a site similar to http://piecespeople.prosite.com/
But when I apply the rollover image, the original image doesn't vanish, so I can't see the words in my rollover image through the original image.
I've been able to do this effect with the previous version but now I can't.
Please help! THanks!

Thanks Guarav,
But the fill drop down for the normal state is already clear (with red line). This is how it looks for instance. I want to clear the lightbulb in the rollover state so that I see the words behind it.

Setting Sales Tax for in State ONLY??

What we have here is a failure to communicate... Either it is a language problem with support or they can't explain the feature.
All the answers I 'm getting are NOT answers to the question I'm asking. And the document is not clear either.
I have clients who sell products who ONLY need to charge sales tax to customers in the same state (PA) but BC is charging 6% to all customers regardless of location. We realize now that we should not have set the tax on individual products to PA 6% (although that is VERY counterintuitive), and we set up our tax code for the USA with all states being zero and pa being 6%. Tech cannot tell me how I should be setting taxes globally for products. IT is almost as if this feature does not exist:
ME: No, This is not acceptable nor does it make any sense.
In the USA, for most companies, we only charge sales tax to In state customers, not out of state customers. Therefore we need to be able to set up a global tax NOT on the product and NOT on the Country, but upon the state ONLY.
If this option is not available, it is a worthless system.

There are two proper ways to add tax.
1. Add tax to shipping options: In this case, you create tax codes and shipping options too. Now, you add tax code to the shipping option as per the customer's destination country. Add a shipping option, and select the tax code in the shipping option. This is the more widely used method of applying tax. From what I had seen, you didn't create any shipping options yet, hence the confusion.
2. Add tax directly to the product: This is what you had done. This will, as you have already mentioned, apply the tax to the product, irrespective of the customer's address details.
Hope this clarifies the situation.
Cheers.
You can set it as not applicable. If you apply tax to the product level, it will apply the tax to all orders for that product. To apply tax to all orders regardless of the visitor's location, you can apply tax at a product level. Check this document:http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/tax-codes.html

Your question is really inappropriate to the Apple Discussions. The AD is a user-to-user forum for helping with technical problems and questions for Apple products. Sales taxes is certainly not one of those topics.
However, to answer your question. If your friend purchases a Mac in the Apple store or if you purchase it via the online store taxes will be charged. Sales taxes in the US are typically between 6-8 percent of the purchase cost depending upon the state in which it is purchased. There are a few states that do not levy sales taxes such as Nevada and Montana.
In addition when your friend takes the computer into your country you will likely be charged with import duties and taxes as well. If it's your expectation that this ploy will save you some money I wouldn't count on it.

Scheduled jobs are in released state only

Dear Experts,
we shedule jobs in background periodically. But for a particular time, all scheduled jobs are in released state only. Please suggest what might be the issue. Even some SAP std jobs have have not started.

Hi Raghavendra,
Have you checked enough BTC work process available in your SAP system.
Use SM65 transaction,goto =>Additional Tests ;check mark "Determine work process status" and "Determine no of jobs in queue"
and see the test results for any problems.

Tabbed Widget Hiding "Content Area" in Normal State ...

Q1. Is it possible to hide the complete content area of the tabbed widget in normal state? ...
Q2. ... and than going back automatically from active state to normal state (same behavoir as Q1) if any other link/widget on the site was activated?
Here´s an image of the idea i have, every tab comtains a picture gallery... should be a cool sliding user experience.
thank you so much for your help!

Have you tried customizing one of the Compositions Widget (Blank/Featured News/Presentation) to simulate a tabbed panel. Since a Compositions Widget allows you the option to hide the target containers on rollout or click.
Try playing with the Compositions if that helps. Would be interested to know any specific feature that you are using Tabbed Panel over Compositions Widget for your above requirement.
Cheers,
Vikas

I don't see an "dbms_repcat.do_deferred_repcat_admin('"RG_EARMS"') job.
The RepGroup would be quiescing but not quiesced if there are active, uncomitted transactions.
What is the error you get when you attempt to resume -- I guess that the groups are in the queiscing state ?

Can't make buttons hidden in normal state.

I've been reading the boards about how to make buttons hidden in the normal state and that all you have to do is turn the opacity down to 0, but that doesn't seem to be working for me. The buttons (such as the triangle or solid line built in to DVDSP) just turn grey.
Is there something I am missing?
Please advise.

Please assist. How can I make all the photos on my Iphone visible? and not only the recently added ones? I'm using IOS 8

Did you move to iOS 8 via iTunes? Your photos should all be on your iPhone 5s without any issues even if you updated via WiFi. The update should have no impact on your photos other than to have moved any photos in your former Camera Roll to your Photos. When opening the Photo App you should see Photos and Albums available at the bottom of the screen. You can also look at Settings>General>About and looking down the list your should see the word Photos and a Count at the right. This count should represent all of the photos in your iPhone.
