Row Strokes in Front

Hey guys and girls,
Is anyone having intermittent trouble with the Row Strokes in Front feature.
It seem me staff are telling me It's usually on complex tables (Table with headers, Merged cells etc)
They are telling me that if they change stroke colour to something else and then back again they come good.
Is this a known bug in ID5.5?
Thanks

Yes that's what I want.
Everything is on Best Join which we then turn to Draw straokes on front
Yeah the strokes line is selected in the little window.
The preview tick box does nothing

  • Tables: Controlling whether row strokes or column strokes appear on top

    I was hoping I could use Table Options > Table Setup: Stroke Drawing Order to globally affect whether row strokes or column strokes appear on top of one another as well as how the gap of double lines connect. But the results are not meeting my expectations and am trying to determine if my application is buggy or my expectations are wrong.
    The only thing this feature seems to affect is how row and column strokes interact with a table border. Is this indeed the intended purpose?
    The only thing that does have an effect is that the most recently-edited stroke is the one that is brought forward. Is this your experience?
    It also appears that the only way to force the gaps within double lines to connect is to make sure the row strokes and column strokes have the same thickness, color and tint. Is this correct?
    Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

    Your assessment should be mitigated by how table work in other programs.
    You can't do any of this in the first place in Excel. Just getting any
    stroking out of the ordinary is a tedious task of avoiding what you don't
    want to happen. Forget about controlling which stroke shows over what other
    stroke. And have you tried working in tables in QuarkXPress? Aaaargh!!
    Neither of those programs are any where near as intuitive as InDesign's
    tables. Neither has the control. You can get (almost?) anything you want in
    ID, that cannot be said for Excel and Quark.
    I really think your only problem here is not assimilating the finer nuance
    of how Table Options and Cell Options and Table Styles and Cell Styles
    interact. Am I correct in the impression that you want the Table Options
    Stroke Drawing Order to effect strokes that were not even formatted using
    the Table Options? If true, that hardly sounds reasonable, or even a
    preferable behaviour for InDesign to implement.

  • Row strokes in cell type tables

    The problem is the following:
    when I select the whole table and go to strokes and fills to put a stroke at the bottom of ALL rows, I select the bottom rule of the "matrix" in the center of the window and put 0.3 points. What that does is put a stroke at the bottom of the whole table, i.e. just the last row, and the other rows are unaffected.
    How do I do this in one step for the whole table?

    Oh yes, the proxy changes, didn't really notice that!
    Valuable info!
    Thank you.
    Is this how I should call the "matrix" (couldn't find another word) from now on, proxy?
    Is this official Adobe lingo?

  • InDesign Tables: Row and Column Strokes

    Using InDesign Tables: How do you get row and column strokes in a table to appear perfectly joined? When I choose "Column Strokes in Front" (Under Table Setup) i still see a tiny row stroke, and vice versus.. it's really visible in the PDF almost can't see it in InDesign though you can a little...any advice?

  • Using Front Row on a second display

    TVRow version 2 is now available:
    http://sites.google.com/site/robijnx/products/tvrow201
    This allows the user to select which display Front Row uses. It is useful for home entertainment (eg using a projector or plasma TV).
    This topic is covered in an archived discussion:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1374039&tstart=0
    and some more background at:
    http://users.tpg.com.au/aoaug/mac_video.html#frontrow
    (eg external displays on an iMac G5)
    It would be useful if this option was available directly in Front Row settings.

    Having used TV Roow 2 for a few weeks, I do find it as nuisance that I cannot swap displays with Front Row running. Sometimes I want to run Front Row on the iMac and other times on the projector. I need to select TV Row from the Dock and change the display option to achieve this. In some respects Version 1 was better because starting TV Row automatically sent Front Row to the projector, whereas starting Front Row with teh Apple Remote left it on the iMac.
    Still waiting for Front Row to include a menu to select the display to use...

  • Front Row Video Support

    I am using Front Row on my intel iMac. I am trying to find out what video formats it supports and if there is any configuration that can be done for Front Row. Does Front Row support MPEG2 video display?
    intel iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Are you looking for someone to help, or just try to criticize?
    Yes, I know that Apple is not perfect, but they are as close to being perfect as any other company I know. Just look at Microsoft and try to say the word perfect, it does not even fit into their way of thinking.
    Now...
    Apple does not support copying movies, for one simple fact. They have the music/recording industries snooping down their backs every waking moment because of the iPod and iTunes. Apple of all companies of course would never support copying movies anyway, they would not risk their reputation. Not only that, but Front Row, and iTunes is just music storing softwares anyway. Front Row is a playback application, and I have Windows MCE (Stupid Media Center Edition), and it does not copy movies either.
    However...
    There are third-party application that you can easily download and install that will copy the movies for you. HandBrake (http://handbrake.m0k.org/) is one such app.
    Please quit criticizing Apple for it's brand new application which is in its first version, that beat's Windows Media Centers 3rd Edition. And Apple's software is first class. If you want crap, then just look at some of Microsoft's software, even on the Mac platform it is horrible.
    And you can easily add folders, since front row just look in your users movies folder, you can add the folders there, and drop the media file in.

  • Front Row: two questions

    Hi,
    I have two questions to Front Row:
    1. Front Row have problems with playing video podcasts? Is this right so? I can't see video podcasts with Front Row
    2. Front row have problems with sleep mode of my iMac G5 20".
    When I use the Apple Remote to wake up my iMac from sleep mode, Front Row doesn't start here. I see only the Mac finder. Why?
    Sorry for my bad english.
    Greetings, Bernd

    Bernd, since your comp is still under warranty you may wish to give the online tech support a try -->HERE<--</a>. Click on the "Chat with a support agent" link.
    If you don't want to go that route, then I suggest that you call them over the phone. Hopefully, you have the AppleCare Protection Plan if your 90 day warranty ran out.
    Good Luck.

  • Front Row IS Included

    FWIW Front Row is included in the install DVD, and probably ships on the MP as well. You can use this --> http://www.keyspan.com/products/usb/errf1/homepage.spml or this -->http://www.keyspan.com/products/usb/urm15t/homepage.spml to control Front Row.

    I got Front Row enabled on my Mac Pro with the help of this hint:
    http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=2006110314322775
    The basic principle is to trick Front Row into believing your mouse provided a Remote Control personality.
    However, I am still keeping my hopes up that Front Row coming pre-installed on the Mac Pros means we will see updated Cinema Displays with integrated iSight and Remote Control Receivers. This would allow us to use Front Row without any hacks, so it would make sense for Apple to pre-install it.

  • AirTunes compatibility with Front Row

    In the AirPort Express FAQ, it says:
    Question: Can I use other applications, like QuickTime or Windows Media Player, to send sound to AirPort Express via AirTunes?
    Answer: At this time Apple only supports sending one AirTunes stream to AirPort Express via iTunes 4.6 or later.
    What does this mean for Front Row? Is Front Row just a interface for iTunes and hence works with AirTunes, or not. I see in the Front Row forum people asking many questions about getting volume control with Front Row and AirTunes, so it seems like the FAQ description sounds more limited that the reality.
    I am particularly interested the ability to watch a movie (that has been loaded into iTunes) using the Front Row interface and piping the sound out to AirTunes. In this case, would Front Row be using iTunes (and work with AirTunes) or would Front Row be using QuickTime (and not work with AirTunes)?
    If movies in Front Row will work, will it work for all movies loaded into iTunes -- e.g. not just mov files, but also avi files supported with QuickTime plug-in to make them work in iTunes? And, if avi files loaded into iTunes would work, would it work for both movies physically stored in /iTunes/movie folder, as well as 'reference movies' stored in that folder pointing to files stored elsewhere?

    Per the Wikipedia AirPort article, no video in iTunes. Apparently, there are 3rd party utilities that can pump any program sound output (Mac and Windows) to the AX, not just iTunes -- which is handy, say, if you want to play Pandora in Safari. However, even these programs say they are useless for video. Apparently, the AirTunes protocol delays playback 2 to 10 seconds for buffering. Delay in audio playback aren't a problem, but with video, the sound and picture would be out of synch.

  • Where is the Front Row icon in Lion?

    I downloaded the lastest version of Lion and it went smoothly. However I don't see the Front Row icon that i had when using Snow Leopard. What happened to my Front Row icon?

    Front Row has been discontinued with Lion.  Plex is an alternative

  • Can't get row or column strokes to show

    I have a table that was originally a Pagemaker table back in the day. I tried to apply alternating row strokes (Table > Table Options > Alternating Row Strokes) as well as Column Strokes but the stokes don't show, the table 'blinks' when updating the preview but no strokes appear. I have tried selecting the whol table and then the proxy, adding a 4 point black stroke to all, but the first row shows the stroke only (see screenshot).
    If anyone has any suggestions...
    MacPro 8-core, 14gb RAM, Snow Leopard, ID CS5 v7.0.4,

    Pagemaker did not have native tables. There was the app Adobe Table which you could create a stand-alone table file, then export to place in PM. So, this file is probaly not a "table", and most likely text. But you could easily convert text to table in Indesign, and then setup your alternating rows.

  • Downgrade Front Row to 1.3 under Leopard...

    If you guys like Leopard, but hate the new Front Row...then just downgrade Front Row.
    Move 'front row.app' away from the /System/Library/CoreServices/ (to a safe folder if you want to go back)
    Download:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/frontrow131.html
    Mount image
    Choose 'show package content'
    Copy the Front Row.app file
    Paste it in /System/Library/CoreServices/
    Boom...front row 1.3 on Leopard. You don't even need to reboot.

    That download does NOT contain any file named "Front Row.app".
    Yes it does. It's inside Archive.pax.gz.
    In addition, the entire download is 4.5MB and the Front Row.app is 7.6MB alone.
    You have to unzip .dmg files to know how large the compressed package is. The .pkg file in the download is 5.5MB and Front Row.app inside Archive.pax.gz is 7.7MB.
    EDIT:
    Rune Staunskær: You are giving bad advice. Even if what you are suggesting works, it's more than likely that what will happen to people who downgrade in this manner will be exactly what happened to almost everyone who used the hack to install Front Row on unsupported machines last year when the OS was updated: Loss of functionality; loss of the use of other apps, and loss of menu bar items.
    When you post hacks like this, you really should be prepared to inform people of the inherent risks (which you appear not to understand). The time it will take to recover from the problems this will likely cause later on makes your suggestion counterproductive, IMHO.

  • Moved front row to trash and deleted in error.  How do I get front row back on?

    Front row was moved to trash and deleted trash in error.  How do I get front row back?

    Front Row is one of the awesome applications that require an OS reinstall to get back.
    Or if you don't want to do that you can always use Pacifist. http://www.charlessoft.com/
    It essentially lets you pull out specific information from your install disc so you don't have to reinstall everything, just what you need.
    Can you still open it with Command+Esc though? You may not have fully removed it.

  • I can't delete "Front Row".

    I installed "Front Row" then I tried to erase it. I found everything of it (application, preferences, etc.) and I erased them. Now, after a month, when I start my computer, it appear ("Front Row") and I've to close it pressing "esc" key. It doesn't appear since I switch off my computer then I restart it. Thank you.

    You may have to force quit the application running from the Activity Viewer/Monitor in Applications -> Utilities. Make sure it does not reappear. If it doesn't show in that application, go to Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal, widen the window full screen width, and type at the prompt:
    ps -ax
    There you should find the PID for the Front Row application on the same row as the Front Row application itself.
    Once you know that PID number at the prompt type:
    kill -15 PID number
    If it doesn't let you kill it, try
    sudo kill -15 PID number
    All commands given in the Terminal should be followed by a Return key pressing. PID number will be one number, and you should use the number itself to substitute for wherever it says PID number in the instructions above.
    Once you have verified Front Row is no longer running with
    ps -ax
    Deleting it should be possible.

  • Can Front Row display other applications?

    As a teacher, I use PowerPoint a lot, and would love to display my PowerPoint presentations with Front Row. Can Front Row be customized (or something) to display created PowerPoint presentations? Is it possible to add applications to the circle of applications on Front Page's initial screen? Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    No, it's not possible to add applications to Front Row. It should be possible, however, to export a QuickTime movie of your PowerPoint presentation. You could then play this with the "Videos" module.
