Resizing Problem PSE 11
PSE 11
Mac OSX 10.8.5
I have been resizing some of my scanned images on my hard drive to reduce their size and free up hard disc space.
The resizing process seems to be working normally - save.replace existing file etc. but strangely on RANDOM occasions
PSE11 does not overwrite the existing file,but simply creates an additional slimmed down duplicate of the file on my
hard drive. Names are absolutely identical.
I can achieve my objective by dragging the surplus oversized file to trash,but can anyone suggest why this is occurring ?

Certainly not possible in Windows, and I wouldn't think Mac any different. I suspect that maybe they are being saved as a different file type e.g. the original perhaps a jpg file and the new a tif. This would allow the first part of the file name to be the same. In Windows the default is to hide the last part of a filename (the file type), might this be the same in Mac? Can you display full filenames in Mac?

[SOLVED] GNOME 3.8 annoying window resize problem
Hello all fellow early-adopters :-)
A very annoying quirk I've noticed, moving from GNOME 3.6 to 3.8, is that it no longer remembers, nor retains, the size/positions I set for many of my application windows. For example, my mail client (Evolution) is sized to fill most of my screen (centrally), with Empathy and Skype as long narrow windows on both sides - giving me a nice, broad "communications" overview on that particular desktop (with dev tools etc open on others).
On 3.6, this layout was retained during my session, as well as next time I started these apps up.
In GNOME 3.8, not only does it insist that these windows are always started as small little bunched-up windows that I need to resize, but every time a window displays a notification/warning (message in internal yellow bar inside the window - such as loss of internet connection, mail retrieval failure etc) it resizes the windows spontaneously to a stupid, small size that overlays the other windows. This is driving me crazy!
Where can I learn a bit more about how window sizing / positioning works in GNOME 3.8, or is it finally time to switch to awesome wm? I want to love GNOME 3.8, I really do. It's so slick, but so... unpolished.
I want to dig in an assist with problems like these, but I need some pointers to some background material first to understand the problem. Is it the window manager? Is it the app?
** UPDATE: Doing a full system upgrade, as of May 18, 2013, has resolved this annoying problem. My windows now stay where they belong, and start with the same size they were closed with. GNOME is now pleasant to use again :-)

I really like GNOME 3.x though (and would like to understand the windowing behaviour), but if the annoying quirks are insurmountable, I will happily switch.
Man I love GNOME 3.x. I admire the courage they had to change, basically, everything, and I find myself more productive with my GNOME 3 Arch box than with my good ol' Slackware KDE 4 box. I just hate those bugs - for example I filed a task in their bugtracker for this window resize problem I have with gedit. If it's a love/hate relationship, I think it's marriage ^_^
With the 3.8 upgrade, deadbeef was having a similar problem with window size/position. I just recompiled it against the latest GTK+3 package upgrade (that came after the 'big upgrade' here on Arch) and it was fixed. But not with gedit

Man I really hope this gets fixed soon, because aside from this one incredibly annoying issue I am loving gnome 3.8.
I get the feeling gnome badly needs more beta testers, sizable regressions like this in "stable" releases happen way too often sad.
I get the exact same feeling. Well bugs exist everywhere, there's no denying. But I think it would be wiser to 'alternate' the nature of each major stable release - one focusing on new features and one focusing on fixing bugs. For example if the only new features in GNOME 3.10 were the AppsFolder full implementation and the introduction of gnome-calendar, and the rest of the development cicle being devoted to fix bugs, I'd be more than happy.
Like Fedora and Ubuntu, the fixed 6-month release cycle colaborates with the bugs. They don't do like Debian or Slackware which are released 'when they are ready'.
EDIT: fout (yet) another bug. At least with facebook chat (haven't tested with other telepathy plugins) the buddy tray icon appear duplicate. Anybody with the same issue?

Preview Application Resizing Problem
Preview Application Resizing Problem
Microsoft platforms have two significant advantages. The first is the concept of an operating system that can function with hardware that ranges from cellular phones to desktop computers. The second is that Microsoft has excellent software development tools
for creating and testing computer programs.
Software compatibility across hardware platforms requires not only meeting CPU and memory requirements. Application programs must be able to automatically adjust Window and control sizes to meet the needs of available window sizes, video display unit sizes
and screen resolutions, switching between vertical and horizontal viewing, vertical and horizontal scrolling, changes in font sizes , and variations in the available screen space due to usage of vertical and horizontal toolbars.
Software developers must be careful that resizing doesn’t squeeze controls too close together or make them so small that they cannot be finger or stylus selected when used with touch screens.
Some of the required automatic resizing options are provided by the Microsoft software compilers and the Windows operating system. Softgroup Component’s “.NET Forms Resize” is an example of one of the third party applications that provide advanced
resizing functionality.
Many of the resizing functions are programmer options and, if not properly enabled, an application may not have the required resizing functionality. At the current state of the art, application programs are highly variable in their capability to do the “intelligent
resizing” that is required to handle different display environments.
A case in point is the Microsoft Preview Application for Windows 10. When entering lengthy comments, the send button becomes positioned off the end of the program window. It is possible to scroll to the button, but the display automatically resets when scroll
is released. The result is that the text cannot be sent. You can try a "blind" TAB to the SEND button. This appeared to work after several tries, but the comment was apparently not received,
RERThirdHi,
What do you see when you open the same PDF file in Acrobat Reader? Are the words still squeezed than?

I am having reduction resizing problems in Illustrator CS6. E.G. Straws & lemon wedge rinds become significantly proportionately wider when reduced. Also, numerical text does not skew with everything else. I have a CC membership w/PS & Ai installed. There are no other Adobe items on my 8 month old imac, Lion 10.7.4 except Flash player & the Adobe Applications Manager. Additionally, I have no 3rd party plug-ins & deleting the prefs file does not fix the problem. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
sgem,
And untick Align to Pixel Grid if ticked (you can do it in the Transform panel, or search for it in the Helpfile).

Save for web - animated gif problem PSE (Mac)
Trying to save an animated gif using Save for Web dialogue box...
works fine, except checkbox "Loop" and delay rate drop down box are highlighted (active) but can't be changed
anyone know reason / fix?No fix, alas. This has been a problem in the mac version since PSE 6. If your gif is small, you can duplicate layers so that they appear to stay onscreen longer, but the best advice is to not use PSE/mac for this, unfortunately.

GIF/Save for Web problem (PSE 7)
I've tried searching for an answer to this problem but nothing seems to address quite what's happening.
I recently had to replace my laptop, and switched from Windows XP to Windows 7. I transferred PSE 7 from the old system to the new system, and have had no trouble with it- until now. I have a 52-layer Photoshop-format image that I would like to save as an animated .gif, with each layer as a different frame. File >> Save As has the option to save Layers as Frames, but if I check it, then click "Save", nothing happens. Nothing at all. On my old system, I'd get a new dialogue with options like quality, duration per frame, loop, etc, but that's not happening anymore, and nothing saves (if I go to find the new .gif file, it's just not there). If I DON'T choose "Layers as Frames", the .gif dialogue comes up just fine, and it has no trouble saving as a static .gif. But it seems that it's just refusing to save it in animated format.
I'm having the same issue with "Save For Web". Neither the file menu option or the keystroke command will bring up the dialogue to let me save it that way. It thinks for maybe a second, but then doesn't do anything else, and doesn't save the image.
I've already tried resetting the layout, just in case the dialogue box was shifted somewhere I just wasn't seeing, and I tried resetting the Save For Web preferences, but neither of those things worked. Any explanation as to why an animated "Layers as Frames" .gif is the only format that isn't saving properly?
I've also tried opening old animated .gifs that I created with XP, and they will not re-save as animated .gifs either. I get the "Do you want to save the changes made" dialogue, but clicking "Yes" doesn't do anything and doesn't save the updates. I'm at a complete loss for why this function no longer works.Glad you got it working.
It takes some getting use to the differences between xp and windows 7
in regards to permissions and all that stuff. Even when you install
programs on an administrative account, problems still persist sometimes.
What i do is always install programs by right clicking on the installer and
choosing Run as Administrator even when installing on an account with administrative
permissions. I seem to have less problems doing it that way. Anyway, just something to
keep in mind for the future.

PAR Iview resizing problem....
Hello Gurus,
I have the following problem. I've develop a PAR Iview and i want to resize it on runtime. I've write on my PAR app. a javascript code, but the system shows me a javascript's error when i launch it on my portal, after open the error it says "EPCM Undefined" on this line:
EPCM.subscribeEvent('urn:com.sapportals.portal:browser', 'load', initFooter);
In my profile i've set EPCFLevel = 2, but my question is: do i have to reference or include a external jar or lib to my PAR??? witch one???. For General culture...a general info about my iview is: The type of my PAR (Iview) is: AbstractPortalComponent and it has a different namespace (com.<company>.portal.addon.footer) than the namespace i want to subscribe the event.... Please Help!!!!!, i dont know why this error happens...and how can i solve it...what am i missing here within my source code????....
Regards,
MarianaHi Rajat,
Thanx for answer me... now i have a question...why with the standard PAR Iviews that doesnt happens???... because that doesnt happens with all the iviews...happens only with mine's. I know that header Iviews (masthead) use the EPCM object, and it is working just fine, that is why I'm asking if there is an external library, jar, etc., that i have to include in my PAR in order to make it work. is This the only solution in my case???
I will wait for your answer,
Best regards,

JViewport Resize problem -- Urgent!
I am trying to make a program that allows the user to dynamically resize a scrollable JPanel. I have added resize buttons that work well. The JScrollPane works well, but when the JViewport's View is set to the bottom right corner of the JPanel, and the user attempts to resize the JPanel, the JViewport repaints its view to the top left corner, hence undoing any resizing. Resizing should not change the View, even if the component is no longer visible in the view.
Here is a code example (please pardon the length and lack of comments):

}Hi bbritta,
Thanks for the time. I guess the setLocation MIGHT be off, tho ideally, it should place the tv somewhere near the right bottom corner of the screen.
The basic requirement I have is in the code written. This is what I want. When I start my application, I want the small tv screen only to appear, with the two colored panels (that shall obviously contain some other code). When my mouse hovers on this small screen, the buttons should appear in a panel just below the small screen. So I have used a JLayered pane that displays two separate gifs, one for the small screen, and one for the buttons panel. On the small screen gif, I have added two panels to layer 1, and on the button panel gif, I have added 3 buttons.
What is happening is that if I set the frame size to the size of the small screen at startup (before show()), then on mouse hover, the frame size increases, but the layered pane size stays the same, and hence i cannot see the button panel. But if I start out with the button panel showing (frame size initially set to the larger value), then on mouse exit, the button panel disappears, and reappears properly on mouse enter. But I don't want to set the original size to the larger value, since only the small screen must be seen first.
Did I make my self clear? The whole problem is that on mouse hover, u cannot see the button panel, till u change the setSize() code in initializeFrame() to use c_o_FULL_TV_SIZE instead of c_o_TV_SIZE. That u cannot see the buttons IS my problem!
Thanks,
Shefali. -
Hello!
I have a JFrame that contains some components I would rather didn't shrink below a minimum size, which I have specified using setMinimumSize. Everything works fine if I have te following line in my code: JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);If I remove it, though, in order to use the native look and feel, I have found the minimum size gets ignored completely. Currently, I am using a ComponentListener that watches for resizes and corrects them, however the results aren't very pretty.
So my question is this: is there any better workaround to this problem, such as watching for (and ignoring) mouse clicks on the border of the Jframe?
Many thanks in advance!It's very stupid if you answer a question and find
then that it has been answered hours ago.I meant: It's stupid (annoying) for me if
I answer a question and find then that it has
been answered hours ago.
I have not referred the "stupid" to you.
Don't want anyone here to feel offended.Even if you are stupid. -

Flash root Movie Resize Problem
Greetings ladies and gentlemen,
I have been going round and round in circles, trying to solve
this annoying little problem, and have just ended up biting myself
in the small of the back. I need help from someone who really knows
their flash.
My problem is this - I have a parent flash movie of size
900x800. I have a button inside this parent that then loads an
external swf (size 300x200) into an empty mc in the parent. My
problem is that when the external swf loads, it resizes the parent
movie (or repositions it depending on whether I am using IE or
Firefox).
I can't seem to work out why or how it's happening, and it
happens whether I use the standard Flash embedding or the swfobject
method for my HTML page that the movie is embedded in.
The actionscript code in the parent is very basic:
but1.onRelease = function() {
_root.createEmptyMovieClip("mp3_player",
getNextHighestDepth());
mp3_player._x = 240;
mp3_player._y = 390;
mp3_player.loadMovie("mp3player.swf");
I can't imagine why the root movie jumps down in size when
the button is pressed and the external swf loaded. Please, could
anyone shed some light?
My html file has the following embedding:Yep. I have the same problem and I have searched every forum
on the web and have spent hours messing with AS. If anyone has a
clue please throw us a bone.
Thanks,

Component resizing problem in Vbox
Hi.. I am facing a peculiar problem.. I have a vbox which contains 5 components, each of which has a line graph and a legend.. But all of them need not be visible at a time.. It depends on the number of parameters returned from a webservice call... so at a time 1-5 of such components maybe visible... i do this by setting includeInLayout and visible to false..
Each of the components have height and width set to 100%. So I expect all the components which have includeinlayout and visible set to true to be equal in size... But if initially only one of the component is visible and then i want to show 2 components by setting these properties, the component which was visible initially is not resizing.. It is staying the same size as before making the second component visible... second component is getting correct size (half of the size of the VBox)..... Am i doing something wrong here? Can some component not reduce in size if another child added/included in layout of its parent?
Thanks in advance for your help!Hi Philip,
This is my vbox declaration. Trendline has a linechart and a legend
<mx:VBox id="chartsContainer" width="100%" height="100%" verticalScrollPolicy="auto">
<chart:TrendLine id="defaultTrendLineChart" width="100%" height="100%" includeInLayout="true" visible="true"/>
<chart:TrendLine id="trendChart1" width="100%" height="100%" includeInLayout="false" visible="false"/>
<chart:TrendLine id="trendChart2" width="100%" height="100%" includeInLayout="false" visible="false"/>
</mx:VBox>
And here is the code where i selectively include various charts in the display
var count:int = 0;
for (var parameterType:String in parameterTable)
var trendLineChart:TrendLine = trendChartArray[count++];
trendLineChart.includeInLayout = true;
trendLineChart.visible = true;
trendLineChart.Initialize();
trendLineChart.SetView(bIsChartView);
trendLineChart.LoadChart(dataProvider, parameterType, parameterTable[parameterType]);
I have stored all the children of the vbox in an array for easy fetching
var trendChartArray:Array = [defaultTrendLineChart, trendChart1, trendChart2];
parameterTable is a Dictionary in which number of parametertypes can vary from 1 to 3 depending on the result of a webservice call. The problem is that if initially i am showing only one chart and then i have to show 2 charts, the first chart's size is not getting reduced. But the second chart added is getting correct size.
Thanks a lot for your response. -
This program works as I want it to with one exception: sometimes when resizing the frame, the contained JPanels do not fully cover the frame's BorderLayout center region. If you run the program you'll discover that a light gray area often appears on the right and bottom edges of the frame when it's resized. Any ideas? Thanks. I'm using version 1.3.1._01 on Windows 98.

With a GridLayout, all components must have the same dimension. And the extra space has to be divisible by the number of components to be distributed to each component :
For example : In a component with a GridLayout, you have a line with 10 JPanels. The width of the component is initially 100. In this case, each JPanel will have a width of 10 (10*10=100).
If you resize the main component to a width of 110, each JPanel will have a size of 11 (11*10=110).
But in the case where the width is not divisible by the number of JPanels, there will be an extra-space :
if the width of the component is 109, the width of each JPanel will be 10 and there will be an extra-space of 9 (10*10+9 = 109).
I hope this helps,

I have suddenly experienced difficulty when exporting a photograph. As I often crop images I typically determine what size I want for either the long or short side and let LR choose the opposite side. Specifying the long side dimension creates no problem and the photo exports normally however when I set the short side only, the image will export but no resizing takes place. Has anyone else experienced this? or know how to correct it? thx
Acknowledged bug.
