Remove the horizontal bar of a letter A?

Hi there,
can anyone help?
I have a letter A and i wish to remove the horizontal line that connects the left and right lines... here is my sample with comments on (its very small pic) http://drop.io/iangregson/asset/lettera
I have tried a number of methods, i tried the knife tool but couldn't get it to line up correctly even using the the ALT key so that it forms straight lines, I then tried the Scissor tool by clicking each segment (four corners explained in image above) and it states i can't do this on "and endpoint"
So my next thought was to try and extend the path so i clicked on the lower left with the pen tool and then point on the upper left... this looked promising .. - i did the same on the right i.e. right lower to right upper - but didn't work perfectly..
Of course before doing any of the above i did Type > create outlines
I would really appreciate any feedback anyone can give, i know i am so close ... but yet so far :-)
Thanks
Ian

> Maybe i should always do manipulation of paths with path = BLACK and FILL = none....??????????????????
Are you asking a question? It's not clear, because if you are, you need about five more question marks there.
Working with a solid stroke and fill of none is actually a very good (and common) practice.
Illustrator, unlike other drawing programs, does not provide the option to turn off fills for open paths. When an open path in Illustrator has a fill, the fill "closes" with a straight edge between the endpoints of the open path, even though there is no closing segment on the path itself. Thus, the fill makes newcomers think the path is closed, and obscures parts of the path(s) being manipulated, further confusing the user.
The confusion for newcomers is exacerbated by Illustrator's insistence upon the default installation's fill always being white. The white fill can't be distinguised from the white blank area of the Artboard.
This is why, whenever I install Illustrator, I set the default Graphic Style in the startup files and templates to fill of none and stroke of black .25 pt. That in itself is far more tedious than it should be.
Alternatively, you can edit paths in Outline View. (View Menu>Outline). That's largely a throwback to the archaic beginnings of Illustrator, when it wasn't even
able to edit in so-called "Preview Mode." It's also used as a workaround for Illustrator's poor ability to select objects that are obscured by others.

How can we remove the scroll bars from the table?

Hi,
I have a dynamic table. Currently the table appears with the scroll bars. But there is a requirement that the scroll bar should not appear and the table should stretch in the entire page. How can this be achieved.
Thanks in advance
Nita

Thanks Mohammad for the reply.
Was able to remove the scroll bars by using only the styleClass as AFStretchWidth. But there is a default partition in middle of the page still? Can i remove that too by any way.

I lose the minimize, restore and close down buttons in the top right corner when removing the Menu Bar.

I am using Firefox 28.0 on my Windows 7 64-bit PC. I would like to remove ONLY the menu bar and keep the orange Firefox tab. But when I uncheck the Menu Bar box, I not only lose the menu bar, I lose the three buttons on the very right of the screen as well - the minimize button, the maximize/restore down button, and the red 'X' close button. The space where these buttons ought to be is black. When I recheck the Menu Bar box, those three buttons on the right of the screen reappear!
I would like to know how I am to remove the Menu Bar but keep the minimize button, the maximize/restore down button and the red 'X' close button.
Eagerly waiting for your reply! Thanks much! ♥

Hello again, cor-el,
Thank you again for keeping up with me on this! I really appreciate your time!
I tried your suggestions of using Safe Mode and a different Windows theme (2 different ones to be exact), but neither solved the problem. Each time I tried disabling the Menu Bar, the same 3 buttons disappeared and I got nothing but black space. It doesn't even fill the space with any background I may have. It's just black.
Additionally, disabling all my personas did not help, either. :(
I've been using Firefox for years now and I've never had this issue. It's always worked flawlessly for me.

How do I create a vertical side menu with its own styling separate from the horizontal bar above it?

Hello. I need assistance in styling my side menu. I would like for it to have a different style than the horizontal bar that is above it. I would like that the side menu have a black background and with white text vertically aligned to the left. But I would also like that the mouse's arrow to turn into a hand when it touches the letters instead of during the entire width of the background. When I began styling the text, everything aligned fine until I added the links in html code. When I added the <a> tag and created a link to another page, the text goes from the left to the center of the black box. And the entire width is a link rather than just the words. To correct this, I tried renaming the div tag containg the menu. I tried renaming the ul tag. And I tried renaming the li tag and changing the declarations. None of these ideas worked. I thought about changing the <a> tag in the head of the document, but that didn't change the styling either. I also tried creating the black background by inserting a black box as a background image with the links over top of the image. It didn't work. I would appreciate your assistance.   I will supply the coding if anyone is interested in looking at it. Thank you.
Nora.

I can post a link to the page. But I will need to upload it. It will take a day to show. But after I wrote to you. I began working with creating additional a:link styles. I was able to create a shortened clickable area of one the words in the vertical menu. Your advice reinforced what I have learned. The following code shows that I started to make different styles of the a:link for each word on the vertical menu. I think that this will work. To indicate the different a:link style I used bold letters . Thank you very much.

Removing the search bar whilst keeping the address bar?

I've been using Firefox but since updating to SL I'm wanting to go back to Safari. In previous versions I would remove the search bar and keep the address bar, (as I do in all browsers because I don't use the search bar, instead I search via keywords in the address bar), but that doesn't seem to be possible any more.
Why has Apple decided to join the two bars together!? It's random and really annoying.
Is there any way I can get rid of the search bar but keep the address bar?

It's hard to please everyone. Apple are obviously more than happy with the interface of Safari 4 at the moment and that is reflected in the millions upon millions of downloads of it, both for OSX and for Windows. These forums only represent issues from a very miniscule percentage of users who are having some issue or dislike some aspect of the software. You will find very few positive comments here as it is a troubleshooting and support forum. This is the first time I have heard anybody complain about this feature (or lack of) so it may well pay to send it through to Apple via the Bug reporter up in your right top corner of the browser.
Cheers

Removing the edit bar from the bottom of the page

Hi,
I have created a web application using HTML DB. Is there a way to remove the bottom bar which has link for editpage etc?
Please help.
Thanks,
-anubhav

anubhav,
You will see the developer toolbar if the application status is set to "Available with Edit Links" and you also have an Application Builder session in the same browser session for a developer in the same workspace as the workspace that owns your application. You will not see the toolbar if the application status is not set to "Available with Edit Links" or you do not have an Application Builder session in the same browser session for a developer in the same workspace as the workspace that owns your application..
You can change the status to "Available" using the application attributes page, to turn off the toolbar.

Help, I just gave iTunes the assignment to update my iPhone5 to iOS7 and now it gives an unknown error (6). The iPhone is still hooked to my laptop, and shows the black screen and bright Apple with the horizontal bar, telling it's in the middle of something. What should I do?

DFU mode? How do I do that? So far the only thing I can do is hold down both buttons to power it on and nothing is on the screen and it wont reconize on my computer....

HT5891 Is there a way to remove the menu bar from a secondary display while still using the "Displays have separate spaces" mode?

Is there a way to remove the menu bar from a secondary display while still using the very useful "Displays have separate spaces" mode?
The reason I ask is that most full-screen video playback in most applications, from iTunes to Flash/Silverlight plugins do not take up the full screen, instead leaving space for the menu bar (in the case of iTunes) or leaving the menu bar present on top of the video (for fullscreen Flash/Silverlight videos).
This is annoying for several reasons ranging from the obvious distraction factor to the fact that 1080p video is not played back at native resolution on a 1080p display.
If there is no way to disable this functionality while maintaining separate spaces, I would (humbly) suggest that a future update to Mavericks allow non-Lion-style* full-screen apps to take over the entire display.
*Lion-style full-screen apps are those that animate into a full-screen mode when the opposing-arrows full-screen button in the upper-right-hand corner of the window is pressed.

No. Turning that off reverts to the old display setup. You have one desktop spanned across all displays. The menu bar appears on the primary display only.

Removing the title bar

Hello,
I saw in an earlier post that it is much easier to remove the title bar
in 2.0 and that how to do it is in the documentation. Where would this
be documented? All I've figured out how to do so far is make the title
bar, title text, and banner bar be the same color as the background. So
they look invisible, except there is an icon that shows up even though
there is no reference to an icon.
Thanks,
Leila

Hi Leila.
If you edit your portlet through the admin tool - just don't specify a
title bar url or delete the one that is there. This will get rid of the
title bar.

Is there a way to remove the blue bars on the side

Me and my friend are trying to make video and I wanna remove the blue bars because they don't blend in with his background. Is their a way I can remove them or change the color?

Not within Skype as far as I know.
Try using your recording/Streaming software to only record x area on the screen, cropping out the blue bars.

I was working on configuring my persona look and removed the navigation bar, now I cannot get Firefox to allow me to bring it back. I've right clicked all over the header and no option to replace it is given. What do I do?

Unable to reinstate Navigation Bar.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I removed the navigation bar to try setting up a better configuration for my new persona.

tim,
From the Menu Bar, try View -> Toolbars -> Navigation Bar, and/or View -> Toolbars -> Customize, and '''Restore Default Set''' in the dialog that appears.
If the menu bar isn't visible either, press Alt, then V, T, M to make it stay.
If that doesn't work, you can reset the toolbar customizations, using the ''Reset toolbars and controls'' option in the [[Safe Mode]] dialog with the '''Make changes and Restart''' option: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode#Safe_Mode_window

How do I remove the title bar from a Palm PDA front panel?

On several PDA screens, I need all the real esate I can get. The title bar chews up a lot of it. Is there any way, in the vi settings or programmatically, that I can remove the title bar?
I've already tried the obvious step of unchecking "window has a title bar" in the window appearance catagory of the vi properties. No apparent effect is seen.

Hello,
It sounds like you are referring to the GUI actually on your Palm devices. I believe on Palm devices all applications have a title bar, and there isn't a way to get rid of it. My guess is that perhaps this is a feature you can enable/disable as a Palm OS setting, or may simply be the way the Palm has defined its user interface. If you have your Palm devices handy, check out the display settings to see any has an option to remove the title bars in general. If you find out either way, definitely repost so the community can find the answer here as well!
Thank you,
Best Regards,

I'm trying to remove the search bar from the menu, but when I try it removes the navigation bar as well. Mozilla's help page shows there being a button to remove in the customize menu section, but it's not here so is there any other way to remove the search bar?

Hi Ashley Clavette,
The Initial view setting works perfectly when the file is opened in Acrobat after setting the desired Initial View.
When you upload the file onto Wordpress, and view it on that website in the browser...it might be using a different pdf handler program which might be causing this issue ( it would be helpful, if you could provide the screenshot) , however when you download the pdf again from wordpress server...and open in Acrobat/Reader...then what exactly happens ? Does the pdf opens in the desired Initial View setting?
