PLEASE FIX the Color Swatches Window

I am infuriated, crazed, insanely angry, that I cannot resize this window.
This seemed like it was a problem through at least one iteration of Photoshop proper, and thankfully was either finally fixed, or I figured out how to use the interface differently.
You need to be able to make displays of your swatches look like this below for them to be of much use. The Photoshop Elements display above is unacceptable.
You might think that if you chose the larger size squares that the problem would go away? NOPE.
Of all the companies in the world to let something like this pass, Adobe should be at the bottom of the list. Please, please tell me I'm wrong, that I'm an idiot, and that there is a way to make this display properly.

OKAY. So, this is how to solve the problem yourself...
You can add your own swatch squares, rearrange them, and save your own swatch collections. I first chose white for blanks, then thought better of it and went for the same color as the blank space in the window pane. Works nice, huh.
If you'd like, you can download a zipped copy of the ACO file I made here: http://www.xsonn.com/pub/Default_small_ACO.zip.
On Windows 7, PSE10 likes to store presets in this folder:"C:\Users\{USER_NAME}\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\10.0\Presets\Color Swatches\"
But you can open the ACO filfe from anywhere.
NOTE: If you pick Load Swatches..., as illustrated in the menu below, PSE10 will add the new ACO to the existing Color Swatches window. In most cases, you will want to select to Replace Swatches....
If you just have a hankering to build your own, or you want to fix other swatch collections... The overall fix takes place in two steps. One, adding 'blanks' in the main UI. Then, after that you then have to move them around, but ONLY AFTER selecting Preset Manager... above. And then after leaving the preset manager, you can save your collection out. Easy... but not easy.
Don't get me wrong. I am still infuriated, crazed, and insanely angry that I cannot just resize this window. This is really just my own little way of proving it.
Cheers! =)`

Color Swatch Window constanly in the way.

I know how to resize the Color Swatch window, collapse it so no colors show, & I know how to close it altogether.
As long as it is open it is usually in the way of the .jpg image I'm working on in the center of the screen. I constantly have to move it out of the way.
On either side of my image there is plenty of room for it, if I could resize it to be taller & skinnier, but it doesn't let you do that. If I move it up high over the menu bars, it seems (I think) to move itself back down where it is in the way as I work.

Ward, I didn't know about the D key to reset foreground to black and background to white. Thanks for that.
Brian, at least I now know what the Palette Bin is. I checked it on the Window drop down menu.
No, I have not been using it. I guess I should check out all the other stuff that is over there to the right.
Anyhow I see if I Close (not collapse but close) the Color Swatches Window, instead of disappearing it will move to the Palette Bin if the Pallete Bin is showing (or perhaps even if the Bin is not showing).
Other than Window / Palette Bin is there a keyboard shortcut to hide or show the Palette Bin? I see I can change the horizontal size ot the Palette Bin with my mouse and as a result squeeze the Color Swatch Window & everything else to a narrow tall vertical work area.

When I change the color using windows 7 color, I get a prompt to change back to firefox default or everything is very slow. Isn't there another way to fix the i

When I change the color using windows 7, apparently firefox runs slower. The videos I watch are spotty and looking like it's in slow motion. Sometimes I get a prompt to use firefox colors and this fixes it. But why can't I use other colors, and are there settings to help me fix this problem? Thank you for any information you can give me.

RE: Firefox search box - manage search engines - get more search engines.. IT DOESN'T WORK , I now get 1000's of useless irrelevant results, PLEASE FIX THE SITES SEARCH NOW, IT'S COMPLETELY USELESS NOW

RE: Firefox search box -> manage search engines -> get more search engines..
IT DOESN'T WORK
I just want to add youtube + some others to the list of sites in the Firefox search box, I now get 1000's of useless irrelevant results, PLEASE FIX THE SITES SEARCH NOW, IT'S COMPLETELY USELESS NOW

Hi Kvoter,
What are you hoping for, firefox to display lists of sites you have visited or bookmarked ?
*''' it should be able to do that'''
* my firefox does that
I am only a fellow ordinary user of Firefox & XP, but maybe the problem is on your machine, rather than needing a fix from firefox. If you take a little time to read this you may be able to sort out the problems yourself.
I hope you do not mind me covering a few basics:
* the [[Search bar]] { <-- clickable link -- ] is designed to produce a lot or results, whereas
*the [[Location bar search|Location Bar]] is a lot more specific and may be [[Location bar autocomplete#w_controlling-behavior|set]] to include or exclude History & or [[bookmarks]]
If you are getting literally 1000s of totally unrelated results you may need to consider [[Is my Firefox problem a result of malware]]
Hope to hear that you have solved the problem, or a bit more detail about what still is a problem.

Unable to navigate requested Expression.Please fix the metadata consistency

Hello ,
I have created one criteria but when I m running the request i m geeting this error, State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 14026] Unable to navigate requested expression: Dim - GL Account.Unit Code. Please fix the metadata consistency warnings. (HY000)
now when i checked the RPD for this and run the consistency check everything went fine.No warning MSG, No Error, No Best Best Practice.
now i checked the join condition in BMM for the dimension i m using in report and fact.
it's like Fact F is directly Joined with Dim A & Dim B.
now when i checked the Physical join it's like Fact F1 is joined with Dim Aand Dim C , Fact F2 is joined with Dim B and Dim C.
so there is no direct fact table join between Dim A and Dim B.
Fact F1 & Fact F2 goes as MTLS in BMM and creating Fact F, now when i got this error i went to Fact F in BMM and checked the LTS and level of granuality for DIM A and Dim B for Fact F1 and Fact F2 respectively. and it is also set as detail level. and in BMM LTS Fact F1 and Fact F2 is also join with inner join with Dim C. and Dim C's level of granuality is also set in Fact F1 and Fact F2 .
the Columns that i m taking criteria are coimng from Fact F, Dim A, Dim B.
can anyone suggest me what to do in this case????
Thanking you..

Hi Veer,
If I get you correctly,
In BMM
Fact F = (physical F1 + F2)
In Physical:
F1 -> Dim A, Dim C ; F2 -> Dim B,Dim C
So, in your BMM, please make sure that
1. Logical source for physical F1 has 'Detail for Dim A, Dim C' and 'Total for Dim B'
2. Logical source for physical F2 has 'Detail for Dim B , Dim C' and 'Total for Dim A'.
I think this should resolve the issue.
Hope this helps.
Thank you,
Dhar

As of my knowledge, you shouldn't get results set for any of views because of this error..!!
I see you are using 2 facts in the report.
And, dimensions you are using in this reports are confirmed dimensions to these 2 facts?
Are you mentioned proper content levels for each Fact LTSs?
Basic funda is: If fact and dimensions are joined directly, then you should mention the the level of granularity in Fact LTS. If not, you should mention total level of the dimensional hierarchy for the Fact LTS

You are not communicating with Apple by posting here. Everyone here is just a fellow user and cannot fix anything.
The Find My iPad service may have indeed been accurate to the limits of the technology. Unless the iPad was a 3G unit, location is determined based on the nearest WiFi router which in your case could just happened to have been yours. The police may be the ones who need to "fix" their understanding of how the technology works and its limitations.
If you want to provide feedback to Apple on the matter, you can do so via their feedback pages:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
but to be of any good you'll have to provide them with more precise details.

Hey Verizon / HTC / Google Please fix the caller ID problem, post 2.2 Froyo UPDATE.

Hey Verizon / HTC / Google Please fix the caller ID problem, post 2.2 Froyo UPDATE. This is a major Problem.

I have provided some steps below that may help with the Caller Id issue you are experiencing.
Try completing a soft reset on the device. A soft reset would be powering the device off and pulling out the battery. Once the battery is removed, place it back in and power the device back on.
Dial *228 and send. Once dialed, listen for the recording to prompt you for option 1 and select option 1. The phone should complete its programming within a minute.
Ensure you are using the area-code and 7 digit number format (ex. 9999951212)
Try removing the contact and re-adding it.

Please fix the "word substitution" feature!

The macros "%b" "%B" "%p" of word substitution is broken since 10.1.0. It is import for me. I have thousands of entries of it on my BOLD9900(about 30000 entries). Without them I can not input text efficently.
The macros "%b" "%B" "%p" just don't work. And if I use two of them, the second is treated as normal letters except a macro. For example, I set a Word Substitution entry like this:
myname %bqueshw
Then when I type "myname" twice, I get "queshw queshw". There is a space between the two "queshw". It should not be there.If I set a entry like this:
myname %b%bqueshw
Then I get "%bqueshw". The second "%b" is treated as normal letters now.
1. Please fix the broken macros.
2. Please activate the "word substitution" feature as default for the TextArea class. There are two class for inputting text , TextField and TextArea. But the TextArea is setted to inactivate the "word substitution" feature as default now.
3. Please open the APIs of "word substitution", and I can develop an app myself to import my entires from BOLD9900 to my Q10.
Please!!!

PLEASE fix the iPod controls in iOS !

PLEASE fix the iPod controls in iOS 7 and upcoming iOS !!!!
I have always used my iPhone, as a musician, for learning new songs, and playing music. The previous versions, iOS 6 and older, it was very easy to grab the blue cursor ball and drag to any place in the song.
Since iOS 7, these simple controls have been broken. The ball cursor has been replaced by a red line, which is very difficult to drag to a different position in a song. If you are able to drag the red cursor line to a new position in the song, the iPod player stutters, and/or does not move to the desired position.
Disclaimer: I have been an Apple ADDICT since 1989... owning almost every version of the Mac since the Mac Plus. I have converted literally hundreds of friends, customers, and family members to the Mac platform, from the dreaded PC world of Darkness.
PLEASE fix or revert the iPod controls in iOS !!... it is an essential tool for a working musician/producer !
THANK YOU !!

Hi TacoRye.
Welcome to the club. When I saw this post, my eye twitched, my shoulders tensed up and I was brought back to a time (http://forums.adobe.com/message/4714549#4714549) when hitting stop did things that were wrong...just wrong. But as one who's been shut down and locked out of that topic, I'll kindly say that yes, multicam is a bit more enjoyable and free of that design flaw in Premiere CC. In fact, you'll probably like it for a few more things in CC as it's true that they have implemented several FCP favorites in the recent releases that even old schoolers probably say "hmmm, well now this is useful". I was a convert to CS6 from FCP this time last year and open to new things but that stop/pause issue drove me nuts. But it's fixed now in CC. And although I'm dealing with equally frustrating issues in CC on a daily basis unrelated to multcam, unless you use Warp Stabilizer a lot you probably won't experience them. All new software will have its bugs, etc. and I'm still holding out hope that the upcoming release will fix these issues. I have faith. Lots of exciting new features are coming in the next week or so which is all nice and good, but if the actual issues and bugs are fixed, I for one will be even happier.
Bottom line: I encourage you to update to Premiere CC if you do a lot of multicam. Just be sure to update to at least 7.0.1 (the current version as of this post) because the regular 7.0.0 version has a pretty awful multicam bug unrelated to the CS6 thing.
Enjoy...and don't be scared.
