Properties Bar Partly Missing!

I'm fairly new to Dreamweaver, and just trying to get started. However, every time I load up DW, the properties bar at the bottom of the screen is incomplete. By this, I mean the grey box at the bottom of the design window that, when HTML is selected, says Format, Class, Title, ID, Link, Target. The bottom half of the ID, Link and Target text boxes are missing, most of Title and Target is missing to the right, only a small portion of each of these is visible. When CSS is selected, the same thing happens with other text boxes appropriate to that. It doesn't seem to matter what I do, if I try to make the windows bigger etc.
I'd be very grateful if someone can help, because this is very frustrating. I wanted to set a target for a page as Main Frame, but I've had no success in doing that. Thanks very much in advance!

Does this FAQ article address your issue?

This happens on Windows systems when the system fonts are set to display at 120 dpi. At the moment, the only solution is to reset the system fonts to the default 96 dpi.

Acrobat 9 Properties bar greyed out for highlighting

I have posted on this issue last year, and also wrote to one of the admins -- all without any solutions, and the problem remains as bad as ever. I imagine there are a lot of other people running into this.
Acrobat 9 Properties bar greyed out (or disappears entirely) when text selected: it happens to me CONSTANTLY, using both Acrobat 8 Pro & Acrobat 9 Pro, all fully updated. Tech support is useless and refuses to acknowledge or solve this extremely annoying problem.
I need to highlight text (using different opacities of highlighting) in a variety of PDFs: scanned-ClearScan OCR, ebooks, downloaded journal articles, etc. None of them are "restricted" in any way for security, commenting, etc.
Within a few minutes of editing, when I go to highlight some text or change opacity, one of two things will happen spontaneously.
1) Properties bar disappears entirely when text selected (erroneously changes to "No current selection")
or
2) Properties bar suddenly greyed out when text selected
It is absolutely inconceivable that Adobe is unaware of this absurd defect -- and is unwilling or unable to fix such a simple functionality so that it works consistently and correctly!
And no, this is not a matter of "turning on/off" the bar using <cntrl-E> -- that's irrelevant to this defect.
And furthermore, commenting text formatting changes are not retained when set as new default (e.g., opacity of highlighting changes randomly from 20% > 60%, etc.)
And I don't want to reset all toolbars, because I have them customized just-so.
Can someone with more expertise PLEASE, PLEASE explain this problem or suggest a fix?
thank you,

Assumptions for this test:
1. Acrobat has been configured so that the "Text Box Tool" (part of the "Comment & Markup Toolbar") is visible on the toolbar.
(Tools --> Customize Toolbars... may need to be used to se this up)
2. The "Properties Bar" is visible (a Ctrl-E should bring it up if it is not already so)
If you had to make changes to get this configuration set, close all Acrobat windows before proceeding so that the settings will be remembered and used when new windows are open.
******BUG******
Text box TEXT PROPERTIES only accessible in most recent file opened.
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Open a 1st PDF
2. Open a 2nd different PDF
3. Arrange so both are visible.
4. in the 1st PDF create a text box and notice how the window for the 2nd PDF gets the TEXT BOX PROPERTIES BAR
5. notice how there is no way to change the text box properties in the first window.
Results: Text box properties can only be changed in the most recently opened window.
Expected results: Text box properties should work for all windows!
Note that no properties (color, fill, font, ...) of any object (line, rectangle, callout, ...) can be changed using the Properties Bar if the properties bar is not part of the last window opened.
The only kludgy workaround I've found is that if I need a working properties bar in a particular window I can:
1) save the file to capture any outstanding changes that might not have been captured (this is an optional step)
2) make a throw-away minor change to the file (I usually draw a short line segment)
3) Go to File --> Revert (& Confirm)
The file will close and reopen without the throw-away change and it will now be the last file opened so it will now have a working properties bar.
Go here and report it and perhaps if they hear from enough of us they will take the time to do something about it.

Properties Bar displays No Selection

In every version of Acrobat Mac from 9.0 to 9.2, I find that the Properties Bar ceases to function after I've used the program for a while. When that happens, it usually displays No Selection, but sometimes it simply ceases to control the properties of the selected element. When I have multiple documents open side-by-side, sometimes the Properties Bar in the frontmost window will display No Selection, but the Properties Bar in another document window will display the properties of the selected item in the frontmost window!
I use the Properties Bar mainly to set the parameters of the Text Box, Highlight Text and Rectangle tools or to modify the parameters of previously created text boxes, highlighting or rectangles.
Is there a solution to this bug?

Properties Bar won't open in AA9

Again, I'm a new AA9 user, but this is confounding. When I open a text box and type into it (and either select the text or not), the properties bar which is visible in the toolbars, won't light up so I can select font, size, etc. Nor will it light up when I select the box. When I draw a polygon, and select the object, the properties toolbar won't activate so I can edit the lines, color, fill, etc. I can get a properties box to open by right-clicking the object, but in the case of the text box, it is only the box properties that I can open, not the text properties. In AA7, the properties toolbar would always light up when I selected an object, or selected text in a text box. (FYI, I'm using Windows 7, 64-bit, Intel Core 2 Duo, T9600, 6GM RAM, Nvidia GeForce GT230M w/ 1GB DDR memory). My version of AA9 Pro is part of Adobe Creative Suite CS4.

My safari menu bar is missing --the menu bar for desktop, HD, and apps appears, but when I click on Safari, it disappears, so I can no longer see my buttons for History, etc. I think my husband (pc user) clicked it away. Any ideas how to retrieve it?

My safari menu bar is missing. The menu bar for desktop, HD, and apps appears, but when I click on Safari, it disappears, so I can no longer see my buttons for History, etc. I think my husband (pc user) clicked it away when borrowing my computer. Any ideas how to retrieve it? Thanks.

I too was having the same problem However, I could access both the menu bar and the dock by hovering my mouse over them so it wasn't a huge problem but I prefered having it there anyway. I was not in full screen mode and I could still go into full screen mode if I wanted to. I found the easiest solution was to just quit safai and restart it, but it might not work for you considering you couldn't access you menu bar either way.
I found this article that allows you to hide/show the menu bar and the dock through TextEdit (didn't work for me) http://www.mactricksandtips.com/2009/07/hide-the-menubar-or-dock-in-specific-app s.html It is pretty old so it might not work for lion and a bit risky if you don't know what you're doing so I wouldn't really recommend doing it this way.
And KSheppard, I know it's not really any of my buisness, but the way to get answers to a question isn't by insulting others and being quick-tempered. Even if you feel like you were insulted first, don't try snapping at people who aren't obligated to help you. Honestly, it just makes everything easier if everybody is cooperative and polite.

Hi,
I am a new user having super admin role.Ours is EP 7.0 Standalone JAVA with LDAP.
Actually, the file SecStore.properties is not been created or not been used for my user.
when i try to start configtool with my own UID/PW i get this error.
My question here is..Am i supposed to use Administrator (since, its standslone JAVA ) or the <sid>adm as per everyone's suggestion.
I guess i can use both Administrator and <sid>adm for configtool since both needs master password to login. but, why not my UID/PW which has Super admin role..??!!
Appreciate your time discussing on this.

Try the Firefox SafeMode. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' 
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
# You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
# Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

My horizontal scroll bar went missing when I maximise the window. How do I fix them?

My horizontal scroll bar went missing when I maximise the window. How do I fix them? I tried everything; such as auto hide the task bar. Even with this, I still can't see the horizontal scroll bar. I even tried the following and I still can't see the horizontal scroll bar.
1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste dom and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the dom.disable_window_open_feature.scrollbars preference to switch it from false to true. By choosing true, you disable sites from deciding whether there can be scrollbars on a window, and Firefox uses its standard behavior for the page.
If you want to always get other bars, here are the corresponding settings:
Menu Bar: dom.disable_window_open_feature.menubar
Navigation Toolbar: dom.disable_window_open_feature.toolbar
Bookmarks Toolbar: dom.disable_window_open_feature.personalbar
Please help.

Making "Properties bar" active in all opened documents OR opening multiple documents in the same win

Adobe Acrobat Pro. / Extended version 9
OS: Windows XP SP3
Hi & thanks for your services.
In acrobat 8 we could open >1 pdf in the same window; this is not available for V.9 & the problem is that full editing is possible ONLY in the window opened last because "properties bar" is not active in other windows but the last one.
So please let us open more than one pdf in the same window for acrobat 9, or make full editing (active "properties bar") available in all opened windows.
I shall also say that generally V.9 is better & more stable than V.8.
With great appreciations.
[email protected]

This is the worst thing to happen to acrobat, in my opinion.
The clutter that it creates on my computer and the fact that i cant even see the document title when I have a bunch of them open (because the task bar is too full) is unacceptable.
I never would have changed from Acrobat 8 if I had known, and now I cant switch back (company license).
The latest thing i can find about addressing it is here:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb405108&sliceId=1
which was in november 2008....
why hasnt any thing else been done about it? I just spent 45 minutes being sent to different departments over the phone, only to be told to submit a feature request.

Scroll bar is missing

Hello,
My horizontal scroll bar is missing and disabled. Ive tried using overflow-x:scroll, overflow-x: auto, all of it. The scroll bar appears but is disabled. It works in Chrome and IE
What's up. Why would you disable the scroll bars? This makes NO sense.

I see very similar results in IE8 and Fx14. Both have a scroll bar at a certain width and then as I expand the window (this is a 1440px display) the scroll bar vanishes. The width where this happens is slightly different, but not by much.
Please note that pop-up windows may display differently than regular windows. The script code for the pop-up can remove certain controls from the new window such as scrollbars. If you think this might be what's happening, you can force scrollbars in popups using a hidden preference.
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''window_open''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click the '''dom.disable_window_open_feature.scrollbars''' to switch its value from the default of false (don't disable sites from hiding scrollbars) to true (prevent sites from hiding scrollbars).

Viewing CSS at properties bar

Hi everyone
My problem (well not a problem but) with Adobe Dreamveawer is viewing css styles at properties bar. At Adobe Dreamveawer CS3 you could see the background, font type, color etc in short as you designed. This useful function is seems disabled or hidden. I have tried to view all help files and didn't find anything. Does anyone knows how to resolve this issue? Thanks for replies.

In the CS4 Property Inspector, you have two buttons: HTML and CSS.
http://forums.adobe.com/servlet/JiveServlet/showImage/2-2032992-5277/property_inspector_12 0dpi.png
You can view either CSS or HTML (but not both) at any one time by toggling these buttons.
I am not a fan of these buttons. I'd prefer to see both CSS and HTML info next to each other simultaneously.

My website browser bar is missing. There's nowhere for me to enter a URL, how do I get it back?

About a week ago, Firefox stopped connecting to the server. Today, I completely uninstalled Firefox and then reinstalled the latest version (not Beta 4!) I opened it up and the connection seems to be working fine but there's no bar for entering in web addresses nor are there any Home, Back, Forward, etc. icon. Right now I'm navigating via the History sidebar, but it won't work forever. What do I do?!

* If, on Windows, in Firefox 3.6 the menu bar is hidden then press and hold the Alt key down or press F10, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear
* Go to "View > Toolbars" and check-mark "Menu Bar" with a click on it to make that permanent. See [[Menu bar is missing]]).
* Make sure that you have the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then see if you can find them in the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window
* If you see the missing item in the Customize window then drag it back from the Customize window onto one of the toolbars.
* If, in "View > Toolbars > Customize", you do not see that item then click the "Restore Default Set" button

My menu bar is missing all of a sudden. How do I reinstall it? The one that has "File, Edit, View, Favorites, etc". Thank you.

The top bar is the one w/ refresh, X, home then the bar to type in websites. The menu bar used to be below that, now it's gone and I have a bar that says, "Most visited, Free Hotmail & Windows."
I had several sights saved in my favorites for my home based business and I can't get to them now. Thank you.
