Properties panel not "sticking" CS4

Somehow my property panel is "loose" and not sticking to the bottom. Here's a screenshot if that helps. How do I get it back in place so it's not floating and it stretches across the bottom of the working area automatically? Thanks so much in advance!

I've had this problem, too—with the Properties panel, the Tools, or the Document window. Once they get moved by hand, they never seem to coordinate with the other panels properly.
My only solution has been to reselect a default Workspace (from the upper-right of the screen, or at the bottom of the Windows menu), which resets the panels.

CS4 properties panel not completely visible

The dreamweaver CS4 properties panel is not completely
visible, some parts of it don't show up completely. In vista I have
my fonts set at 110%, 106 dpi. When I change them back to 100%
96dpi, it becomes visible.
I'm just curious why doesn't dreamweaver CS4 scale to larger
fonts, just like other applications? Is there some way to fix this?
I'd prefer to use larger system fonts, since their easier on the
eyes.

Unfortunately Adobe is notorious for not following Windows
standard APIs. It
is unlikely they will fix the issue anytime soon.

CS4- properties panel not displayed correctly

I just installed Dreamweaver v10. The properties panel information is being clipped. Does anyone else have this problem?

Good evening,
make sure your dpi is set to default 96 dpi, I had this problem because working with a small screen and old eyes, I adjusted my font size, had to set back to default 96dpi, hope this helps

Properties panel crashes flash cs4 - OSX 10.5.5

I just upgraded to cs4 and all other apps seem to work fine
but flash cs4 10.0.1.
heres how I can make it crash every time:
1) launch flash cs4
2) create a new action script 3 document
3) click the color pallet to change the back ground color in
the properties panel
4) crash
clicking the color pallet also crashes the app as well.
one clue: saving your project will allow you to change the
background color in the properties panel but attempting to save or
save as will also cause the app to crash.
I have tried everything. Reinstalling, updating and still
crash.
Can anyone help?

It seems that Adobe has lost it's reputation because of PSE. My version crashes loads and it's starting to effect the what I do.
A company can lose it's reputation very quickly. Overall I think they will make a loss with this product due to the damage it's done.
I believe that people should start suing software companies if the product is not "fit for purpose". This rule goes for non-software products so why not software. People just seem to assume that software and technology can bomb out and that it's ok. Well the tide of acceptance should change... it is clearly UNACCEPTABLE when paying for a product that it fails quite a bit!
I'm f£$%ing furious after all these years of putting up with terrible software. First it was Microsoft (although admittedly they improved from about 2000/XP onwards). However Adobe have gone backwards! What is going on!?
I want either a refund or a free working upgrade. Also possibly compensation! Why the hell not!?

Xcesius properties panel not visible

Hi Experts,
I have a very basic question. I have been working on Xcelsius for quite some time and I have suddenly noticed that the properties panel in my xcelsius has disappeared. I have not made any upgrades.
In the 'View' menu, I have the option 'Properties' checked. Is there anything else that I need to take care of.
Thanks,
Sreeni

Check the size of the Properties window , I think u might reduse the size of the Properties window.

Symbol Properties panel not updating or refreshing

Y'all,
I'm running FW CS5 under Windows 7 Pro (64-bit), and my Symbol Properties panel has stopped updating when I select a symbol to modify. I have to close and re-open the Symbol Properties panel to force it to refresh.
If I have the panel open and select a symbol on the page, the panel remains blank.
If I have edited a symbol then deselected it, that symbol's properties remain visible in the Symbol Properties panel after the symbol is deselected.
If I have edited a symbol then select another symbol, the first symbol's properties remain visible in the panel and it does not update to show the properties of the newly selected symbol.
In all cases I must close and re-open the Symbol properties panel to force it to refresh and update.
I've also noticed two other peculiar refresh problems lately - when the rulers are visible and I either zoom in / zoom out on the document or change the application window size, the top ruler often vanishes. I have to minimize then maximize the Fireworks application window to force a refresh and get the rulers to re-appear.
Finally, the little document info boxes at the lower right corner of the canvas showing document size and zoom level often go blank or vanish when I either zoom in / zoom out on the document or change the application window size. I have to minimize then maximize the Fireworks application window to force a refresh and get the info boxes to re-appear.
It seems that the problem may be related to some larger Fireworks screen refresh problem. It did not behave this way when first installed - it began happening recently, and the only thing that has changed was a minor update to all of the CS5 design tools (including FW) about the way that image metadata is handled.
Is anyone else experiencing odd refresh errors? Is it possible that an extension could cause this?
Any help and advice would be appreciated, because it has become really cumbersome to use component symbols.
Thanks,
Dave

After digging around and looking at what has been updated or installed on my computer since these weird refresh problems began, I may have identified a possible cause.
Adobe installs the Java runtime with the Creative Suite (I'm not sure why, but it's there), and a few weeks ago the 1.6.20 update installed itself, but it failed multiple times before installing, then Windows 7 informed me that a component was improperly installed with the incorrect privileges. Last night the 1.6.21 update installed itself without any errors, and this morning Fireworks seems to be working normally again.
I'll keep monitoring FW for weird refresh problems, and if they return I'll post an update. It is possible that the 1.6.20 update broke something that was fixed by the 1.6.21 update.
Can anyone tell me why the CS programs require Java and what it is used for?
Thanks,
Dave

When I type in Fireworks, nothing shows up in my Properties panel??!?

I'm currently going through a tutorial on building a contact form. When I try to type anything, my property panel is empty. This mean that if I want to change anything, like the font, size etc. I have to do it in the top menu.
I've tried quitting Fireworks, then reopening it with a fresh new document -- same thing.

Use the symbol properties panel, not the regular properties panel and change the label of the selected form symbol in that panel. HTH

Properties panel does not entirely show

Part of the properties panel is not shown - what cause this? - how can it be fixed?
Using DW CS4 and Win 7
Arrows show how parts of the panel are not seen

1600 to 900 is screen resolution and font size was 125% - changed it to 100% and that allowed full properties panel to be displayed
Thanks everyone - Merry christmas

Properties panel missing things in css mode (CS4)

Hi - I'm doing a tutorial in css with a Dreamweaver CS4 pre-designed layout. I want to make a nav bar by using an unordered list and hyperlinking the words in the list.
My properties panel (bottom of the window) in css mode does not show a box for links or a gizmo for making lists, indents, etc.Shouldn't those be available?
Do I have to use the menus at the top? Do I switch to <>HTML to get the features that are missing in css mode?
Insights would be appreciated.
Thank you.

They are when you click on the HTML button on the Property inspector.

CS4 Crash, Properties panel unresponsive

Recently I had issue with Flash CS4 crashing repeatedly. Also
the application would have trouble using the text tool to create
TextFields it would not update the properties panel (Ctrl+F3) when
switching between field types (dynamic, static and input). Also the
properties panel would not update when selecting other items in the
FLA file and just remain as the TextField details.
A co-worker found that the issue was with the fonts on our
systems. It appears some where corrupt and this was wreaking havoc
with Flash CS4. We tried turning off the preview but that did not
work. What did work was removing the corrupt fonts on our systems.
First we had to find out which fonts were corrupt which can
be done with FontAgentPro from Insider Software
(www.insidersoftware.com). (Compatible with Mac OSX, XP and Vista)
We installed the trial and tried to run an import which told
us which fonts were corrupt. Once we knew which fonts were corrupt
we just deleted/removed them from our Font folder. Note
FontAgentPro crashed when we deleted/removed the fonts with it
open; so we had to make a list of the fonts and close FontAgentPro.
Once the bad fonts were gone we were able to open and run
Flash CS4 without it crashing or the properties panel from hanging
or becoming unresponsive.
We hope this helps other who are experiencing similar issues.
Note:
On fresh Vista install Calibri, Cambria and Constantia fonts
were all seen as corrupt. Not sure if this happened due to font
installs we made, vista install bad (which runs very stable) or if
Vista fonts are a different creature than previous window OT and
TTF fonts.

Unfortunately Adobe is notorious for not following Windows
standard APIs. It
is unlikely they will fix the issue anytime soon.

What do you have selected when you do this? The contents of
the Property
inspector are context sensitive.

I have CC and while attempting Light Effects, the Light Effects Layer will appear in the layers panel, but the option bar will not appear and neither will the Properties panel. All my preferences are set correct, and my computer has a compatible video card and RAM. Please help!
I tried to delete the layer attempt again. I am in a Photoshop class, but the work is all online, so all my teacher is going to do is send me to this site. I am trying to edit a photo for this class, and without this working, i go to filter>render>light effects. the bar and panel will pop up for about 2 seconds, then disappear. How do i get the options bar and properties panel to display?

I was about to suggest resetting LE from the Workspace drop-down top right corner, but if you can't see the Options Bar, I guess that is not going to happen. The normal Tool reset is grey out for LE, so it might be a case of resetting Preferences.
Reset Preferences
Windows — Hold down Shift Ctrl Alt immediately after starting Photoshop
Mac — Hold down Shift Cmd Opt immediately after starting Photoshop

Character Styles in CSS Properties Panel are not correct

I am using Adobe Illustator CC.
I am trying to export all of the charter styles as CSS. However the CSS panel is not generating the correct style.
Right now, in the Character Styles Panel and CSS Properties Panel I have 3 styles (Default, h1, h2)
This is how they are defined in the Character Styles Panel:
1. [Normal Character Style]:Helvectic Neue LT Std, 55 Roman, 16px
2. h1: Helvectic Neue LT Std, 25 Ultra Light, 35px
3. h2: Helvectic Neue LT Std, 45 Light, 18px
HOWEVER
When I go to the CSS Properties panel the code is not showing the Font Style:
This is how they are defined in the CSS Properties Panel:
1. [Normal Character Style]:
.NormalCharacterStyle
font-family : Helvetica Neue LT Std;
font-size : 16px;
color : #19131F;
color : rgb(25, 19, 31);
2. h1:
.h1
font-family : Helvetica Neue LT Std;
font-size : 35px;
letter-spacing : 0.53px;
color : #FFFFFF;
color : rgb(255, 255, 255);
Missing: 25 Ultra Light
3. h2:
.h2
font-family : Helvetica Neue LT Std;
font-size : 18px;
text-transform : uppercase;
color : #FCFCFC;
color : rgb(252, 252, 252);
Missing: 45 Light
Am I not doing somethign correctly? Is it a problem with my font or with Illustrator?
Also, in case it makes a difference, I only have the default paragraph style defined. It's style is; Helvectic Neue LT Std, 55 Roman
Thanks!

CSS cannot render typographical multiple weight fonts simply because that's just not how it works. All CSS does is reference a physical font file and its properties and while it's possible to use the font-weight and font-style attributes to make standard fonts lighter or bolder it does not compare to anything you would do with the font in a real design environment. That and of course you still need to define fallback/ substitution options - the Helvetica Neue you are referencing is exclusively available on Apple systems only and even if what you are trying worked off the bat, it would be useless on alternate devices that have no access to the font.

Links do not appear in links panel in inDesign CS4

I don't recall when this happened but I no longer have any links in the Links Panel in inDesign CS4 in ANY of my documents old, new, it doesn't matter. If I package a file it gathers all the links if I need to update a link I have to go to the original link outside of inDesign to find it. I have found other problems like this in other forums but have not been successful with the solutions.
Can anyone please please help me with this??
Thanks
