PNGs resizing themselves when dragged to stage.

I'm having a heck of a time trying to figure out why my PNG
files which are 791px x 567px in my library resize themselves to
593px x 435px when I drag them to the stage! Dragging GIF or JPG
files to the stage does not resize them. What am I doing wrong...
this is driving me nuts?! I'm using Flash CS3. I didn't have this
issue with Flash 8.

The PNG files are actually 96dpi, changing them to 72dpi
makes no difference... they still "shrink" when dragged to the
stage! This is frustrating as it only happens in CS3, dragging the
96dpi PNG to Flash 8 does not resize the image... it still looks
good.

Widgets resizing themselves when IBA is shutdown?

I'm having an increasingly frustrating problem when I shut down IBA.
I have been working on a project for a week or so now and have noticed that when I have saved and closed the project that there has been a couple of slight layout changes where the gallery widget has changed size after IBA has been shut down. As I have been working on the same project all day I have only been closing it down when I have finished work for the day. As they were only slight alterations I haven't reacted to them too much.
However, today I decided I needed to address the issue. In doing so I have been closing IBA down more frequently to see what results occurred. This has caused further problems. Now, rather than one or two of the widgets changing size most of them throughout the project have changed in one way or another at some point.
What I'm finding frustrating is that there is no pattern to the changes. I have been through the entire project and altered the size back to how I had them originally, then shut the project down, reopened it and alterations have occurred. I have then altered those changes closed it down and then reopened it and different changes have occurred. I keep repeating the process and the same changes keep happening but there is no consistency to when they happen.
I can of course solve this issue when the project is completed by making all the changes prior to exporting the project and closing IBA. However, this shouldn't be happening and I wonder if it is my error or if there is a slight glitch.
Any advice would be helpful.

CC: Panels do not resize smoothly when dragging between them

When I drag between two panels, to adjust the vertical space of two stacked panels, the movement is not smooth. Sometimes it even continues to resize in a jerky fashion, after I've stopped dragging. This started to be a problem in CS6 and continues in CC. Is there a way to fix it?

Hi,
Thanks for posting it on the forums. Illustrator team is currently investigating this issue.
As a work-around I suggest you to keep your App Frame ON. (menu Windows >> Application Frame).
With Best Regards,

How to resize window when stage style is undecorated ?

Hi,
I have one undecorated window and I want to make it resizable by using mouse.
How can I do it ?
If I use decorated window then it allows me to resize it.
Thanks.

Just make a draggable shape and resize the stage depending on the drag action.
Here is a simple stage illustrating that and moving the window too.
Note an old bug already seen in 1.1 at least: when dragging such window, on WinXP, sometime it seems to "jump" to one bound of the screen, then it goes back (in a flicker) to current position. Strange and annoying.

AE CC crash when drag jpg and png files to comp

Hi I have noticed photoshop exports of jpg and png files cause AE CC to crash when drag these files to comp Same jpg and png exported from CS6 do not cause crash.

What exact version of Photoshop CC are you using? 14.0, 14.1, 14.2?
How are you saving the PNG and JPEG files from Photoshop? File > Save As? Save for Web?
In After Effects preferences > Media & Disk Cache, is the Create Layer Markers from Footage XMP Metadata option enabled? Does the problem go away if you turn this off?
A similar problem recently occurred with files generated from Illustrator CC (17.1):
http://adobe.ly/1jlIykQ
However, we have no reason to believe the same problem would apply to files generated from Photoshop. I am not able to reproduce your problem with PNG and JPEG files saved from Photoshop CC (14.2), either from Save As or Save for Web. So either the conditions of your problem are more specific, or it is not related to the XMP Metadata problem.

When dragging an image onto a fresh canvas, the resizing feature presnaps the image into the canvas size. I can confirm that this has not happened to me in previous projects. I've also tested this problem by making a new larger document size and dragging

Contexts: I am very competent with GFX and have worked on many projects.
When dragging an image onto a fresh canvas, the resizing feature presnaps the image into the canvas size. I can confirm that this has not happened to me in previous projects. I've also tested this problem by making a new larger document size and dragging in the same render. It snaps again. I don't want to re-size from the canvas dimensions, I want to resize from the render's original dimensions.

Photos Do Not Appear When Dragged Into Ibooks Author

I formatted my images to 72 DPI .png files and when i drag and drop them into Ibooks Author I can see them, I can manipulate them, resize, add captions. When I do a test the images appear in the text view portriat mode of the Ipad but when in the landscape mode, the images do not appear. There is just a blank space with a caption. If I create a photo widget and drop the photo inside I am able to see it on the Ipad however that widget does not allow me to resize as I would like. Does anyone have a fix for this issue or an idea?
Thanks
Chris A.

Confirm your process here:

...and try jpg for photos instead of png.
And remember - layout in landscape...edit in portrait. Always delete a placeholder image before adding your own.

Annoying window behaviour when dragging

Often when dragging a window aside it jumps and stack on top of the most left top window (or so). It seems this happens when dragging a window on top of another window's title but not always. When it does happen it can be reproduced several times in a row but sometimes it doesn't happen at all, hence this behavior is inconsistent. It is also application independent.
Is it possible to get rid of this behaviour?

At least on Windows this depends on the OS setting, and not a JVM setting (at least I'm not aware of a setting which controls window dragging, I only know of one which affects window resizing)

Firefox save image to .txt file when dragging to desktop

Hello,
when dragging an image to desktop firefox not save to .JPG, .GIF or .PNG but creates a .txt file :-/
No probleme with other browsers !
Video demo : http://videobam.com/OTMPC
Any idea ?

Hey SMed79,
Thank you for your question. I understand that you are dragging and dropping an image to the desktop and are seeing a txt file. Try this not in a private window.
Please see the application stored options on your Firefox menu bar to see if there is a preference stored that saves this. I was unable to reproduce this.
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.''
*Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Focus Lost when Dragging JInternalFrame?

Hopefully this should be a simple question:
I have a JInternalFrame with numerous simple components like JTextFields.
When I click the title bar, or click and drag the Frame, the JTextField that had focus prior to that clicking loses focus. Focus goes to the Main Frame window, and if I use setFocusable(false) on the main frame, focus goes nowhere (getFocusOwner() == null).
I want focus to remain in the same component (the JTextField) when clicking on the title bar and when dragging. How do I do this?
I'm using jdk1.4.1_01. Thanks for the help!
Joel

I HAVE AN ANSWER!!!
First of all, when you click on the JInternalFrame's title bar, I was losing focus. To fix this, I added a mouse listener to the title bar. I then reset my focus on a mouse clicked event. To find the title bar, I did the following:
private BasicInternalFrameTitlePane findTitleBar()
    Component[] comps = this.getComponents();
    for (int i = 0; i < comps.length; i++)
         if (comps[i] instanceof BasicInternalFrameTitlePane)
              return (BasicInternalFrameTitlePane)comps;
return null;
If the findTitleBar method doesn't return a null, add a mouse listener to it. In the mouseClicked method, reset your focus. I found by using the SwingUtilities.invokeLater, it worked better. So my mouseClicked method looked like:
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e)
   initFocusFor(getFocusComponent());
public void initFocusFor(final JComponent comp )
   if (comp == null)
      return;
   SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable()
     public void run()
        comp.setRequestFocusEnabled( true );
        comp.requestFocusInWindow();
}Now, for the resizing and dragging.... I was losing my focus on that as well. I believe my desktop manager was getting the focus on resizing and dragging. So, on my subclassed desktop manager, I just added logic to reset my focus on the JInternalFrame on the following methods: endDraggingFrame and endResizingFrame.
Hope this helps someone else.

UI delay when dragging

When dragging a key frame or object it takes about 10 seconds to let go of that object or key frame. I'm working in a after effects comp that uses 3d lights solids and ai vector imaged. The file was started on a Windows machine in which it had no issues
-I'm working in after effects on my new mac pro that is currently the fastest and most expensive computer that apple sells 5/25/14.
-I'm working in an after effects comp that uses 3d lights solids and ai vector images.
-The file was started on a Windows machine in which it had no issues.
On the Mac. Moving lights or key frames in the time line it really lags really lag and is barely workable.
Just got this mac wondering if I need to adjust settings. I hope...
BTW other things are in fact very fast such as ram preview

Hey Jim
Wow, that's great; thanks! Can I ask what settings you used to get the files so small?
Yes, I am familiar with Photoshop and image optimization issues, but I didn't realize that PNG was so much bigger than JPG and that I had so much file size I could shed before I would notice a degradation in image quality. Your advice will certainly help greatly, and I will certainly apply it to the thumbs as well. I think my mom will be very pleased. : )
I look forward to hearing what collection of settings you used.
Thanks and Be Well

It has worked in the past but I downloaded the update today and photomerge will not work correctly. Any ideas?

hedger,
How do you expect anyone to help when we don't know a darned thing about the file, abut your setup, exact version of Photoshop and your OS, machine specs, etc.?
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too.

When dragging mail to a new folder in Mail, the item sticks to my cursor and won't let go.

I like to keep certain emails organized in folders. When dragging my mail today, the envelope icon on the cursor stuck to it, would not release to the selected folder and would not move the item. In the menu pull down, I could access an option under Message saying Move to (folder) again. Force Quitting helps, but after relaunching, the behavior recurs if I try to drag and drop. The envelope icon remains stuck to the cursor, even if I go to another application. It doesn't resolve until I Force Quit again.

Update: same thing was happening with Safari 6.1.1 when I tried to drag a URL from toolbar so could save a Webloc. Then I restarted my Mac and both problems went away. Sure hope it's permanent!

Why, since CS6 does DW now use ABSOLUTE image paths when dragging images into Design View from a folder in Finder?!

While I am grateful the previous issue I had with not being able to drag files into design view at all (in CC and CC2014) was resolved.
Guys (Adobe), seriously, if you're going to change the functioning of something that used to work just fine, at least supply a way for a user to revert to the old way... I absolutely loathe that I need a legacy version of DW to continue with my current workflow. Please put it back to the way it was, or at least allow a user to chose between the two behaviours.
If there is a way to do this, without using the Site Manager (which still doesn't work from Finder even with relative to document selected), I would appreciate any guidance.
As for using the Site Manager (before some smart guy suggests that I just use that) I do not wish to navigate to and create up to 20 "sites" a week and wait for DW to cache them all, when I am already in the folder with the image assets in Finder.
Also before someone pipes up and says: "You shouldn't be diving sites in design view anyway", I don't... I develop many, many newsletters every week and the folder structure is such that navigation to the actual image folder using the Site Manager would be painful at best.
I don't really like having to and replace all instances of "file:///Users/me/Work/company/Mailers/Year/wk14/mailer/dev/img/prod5.jpg". It is horrendously wasteful, time-wise.
Thanks in advance for any helpful replies

Sorry Murray, DW used to have an idea, my point is that since CS6 its developed a case of Amnesia.
The "elements" are in the "root" folder as follows:
newslettername.htm
img
imagename.jpg
So the relative path would be <img src"img/imagename.jpg" />
However since the change: <img src"file:///Users/me/work/Company/year/week/campaign/img/imagename.jpg" />
Which is completely useless and needs to be corrected before I upload the html anywhere.
As for using the site directory, I did answer that in my initial post. I use a laptop, I really don't want a site manager taking half my screen just so I can see the folder structure and navigate with that, especially since I am already at the files I need in Finder.
Again, this is something that used to work just fine in previous iterations of DW, so I don't believe Adobe is incapable of fixing it nor am I being unreasonable asking for a choice for those that may find the local absolute paths useful in some way. All I want is to be able to chose not to use absolute paths when dragging from Finder.
