Rulers not showing although selected on

I'm just starting to use my new Creative Cloud version of InDesign on my iMac but the ID window doesn't show the rulers even though they are selected on in View.  I’m trying to change my document dimensions to inches but the only way to see the rulers is to open a document which then prevents any dimension changes from taking effect!  Also the work area is transparent instead of a white background, just in case that’s relevant.  Is there a setting somewhere that I can use to reset the display to show the rulers without a document open?

It's normal to have no rulers until you have a document open. You can change the default units in the prefs (InDesign > Preferences > Units and Increments). This will affect new work, but you'll need to cahnge existing files one at a time.

  • Vertical ComboBox does not show its selected Item's label

    Hello,
    We have created a custom vertical ComboBox.
    Normal combobox has been rotated to -90 degrees.
    It aims to show its selected label and open up the menu at proper x,y coordinate.
    To open up the menu at proper x,y coordinate, we have overriden "downArrowButton_buttonDownHandler" function to move the dropdown accordingly.
    However, the selected label is not visible on screen. Rotated text does not show up without embedding fonts. Hence, We have tried embedding font for the same. It doesn't work though.
    Please help.
    Regards,
    Tanu

    Embedded font isn't working for rotated button/combobox. Though, it works fine with rotated label
    Please refer to below given code:
    <?xml version="1.0"?>

      <mx:Style>
         .mystyle1 {

      </mx:Style>
      <mx:Script>
          * Embed a font by name.
         [Embed(systemFont='Arial',

  • Not showing Scene Selections

    Hi all,
    I've imported a movie I made in Final Cut Express that has chapter markers, but when I drag the movie into the background in iDVD, it doesn't automatically create two buttons ("Play Movie" and "Scene Selection"). This suggests that my chapter markers are not being recognized.
    I have definitely placed chapter markers in the movie in FCE, and I have exported it after selecting the 'Chapter Markers' option in the drop-down menu.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Andrew

    When I search the store for 'Comedy Bang Bang', on the results screen I get :
    To the far right of the Podcast Episodes heading is a 'see all' button/link. Or clicking on the podcast name above it takes me to that podcast's episodes.
    On the list for that particular podcast I see whitespace if I scroll down the screen too quickly, but scrolling back gets them to (slowly) appear.

  • Image in photoshop transparent and not showing image selected.

    My images are appearing in Photoshop as 'transparent' and not as the image selected. This is following a major fault created by hardware supplied to me which caused me to have to re-format my computer.

  • Print does not show a selected photo and won't print

    How do I get my photos printed? I select a photo but I get the maessage that no photo was selected.

    I finally called the help desk. I was told that sometimes the catalog needs to be reloaded. Instead of reloading the catalog, i ended up loading my entire library. Over 4200 pictures. This was without any filtering. But now the print feature works.
    Next I will need to figure out how get out all of the duplicates. Set up filters and get organized. I am new at this so after spending over 30 hours watching how to videos I am a little overwhelmed.
    It would be nice if the help desk guy could speak English. Well, English  that I could understand. Poor guy had to repeat everything several times. I asked if he could get me organized. Nope. Had to call back. That means sitting on hold for an hour and a half....but hey I have another 30 days of support. I am going to learn this. Although I am now convinced that I am dain bramaged and beyond help. Now how to get the e-mail notification turned off.. 50 e-mails a day. Isn't this fun.

  • Captivate 7 - quiz questions not showing tick/select boxes on ipad

    I'm having an issue when testing a course on ipad, on the question slides the radio buttons/tick boxes don't show. The module also doesn't show which answer you have selected. The course works fine across other browsers on desktops (both PC and MAC).
    I've checked the HTML5 tracker, and there are no reported errors. The questions are default captivate multiple choice question.
    Thanks,
    Chris.

    I have installed the 7.0.0, patch upgrade to 7.0.1.237, and instead of using the Master Slide I have uploaded a white background image. Within the properties tab>general, I have checked the project background option and uploaded my background image. Both Master slide objects on top and Use master slide background are unchecked.
    I have uploaded my module to Moodle 2.5, and tests have gone well on all desktops and all browsers. Only the last slide contains any interactivity, and has checkboxes and a submit button to confirm their attestation of completion. However, when tested on an iPad, this one slide that contains the check boxes and submit button appear white/or blank. Would anybody have insight into this issue?

  • LR 5 spot removal/heal tool does not show the selected area

    A week back I installed LR 5 on my 15-inch Retina MBP. My laptop has ample hardware to run LR5. The problem I faced was with the spot removal/heal tool. It goes like below.
    I selected the Spot removal tool and set the mode to HEAL and then selected an area on my image. In many tutorials I saw the selected area is shown as a circle with white border with an arrow pointing to another circle. But in my case, its all invisible. Same issue happened when I selected CLONE mode. I am attaching a video to demonstrate the issue.
    Could someone help me to understand what is going on? I am new to LR, but I like the software and want to invest time and money in it. However, with such issues I am little panic and not sure if this software is worth of those investments.
    Thank you all.

  • TableCellRenderer -- not showing as "selected" in JTable

    Hi,
    I have a a JTable, and for one of my columns, i do
    for (int i = 0; i < dataModel.getColumnCount(); i++) {
         column = table.getColumnModel().getColumn(i);
              if (i ==0)
                     column.setCellRenderer(new NotificationCellRenderer());
         private class NotificationCellRenderer implements TableCellRenderer {
              public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int column) {
                   JLabel label = new JLabel(String.valueOf(value));
                   label.setToolTipText(label.getText() + " and more description goes here");
                   return label;
         }so it looks fine...but then when i select a row in my table, all the cells of the row are "highlighted" with the blue color...except for the column which uses that cell renderer....
    how can fix this?
    thanks

    Or, maybe an easier approach is to override the getToolTipText(...) method of JTable:
            JTable table = new JTable(data, columnNames)
                public String getToolTipText( MouseEvent e )
                    int row = rowAtPoint( e.getPoint() );
                    int column = columnAtPoint( e.getPoint() );
                    Object value = getValueAt(row, column);
                    return value == null ? null : value.toString();
            };

  • I had recently tried to change the background of the lockscreen and it did not show the selected image as lockscreen background while charging, but earlier the image iused to keep as lockscreen background used to be always present even while charging???

    is it normal for the iphone to act like this ???

    Firstly I thank you very much ckuan to take out time and answer my question. But I seem to have tried all the three things but in my case the phone doesn't show background of lock screen in two out of three instances that you have pointed out. First being it shown to me while charging if I press the home key, but if I press home key once during charging it still appears dark and battery and I suppose date and time shown.
    Secondly the one at silent mode also doesn't work in my phone.

  • Genius switched on but the symbol not showing on selected album in the iPod so unable to create a genius play list. This has only happened since last Apple update.

    Have tried all avenues to try and rectify this problem and is getting very annoying. In the past it has stopped me from creating a list stating not enough songs matching which i find odd seeing i have over 2,500 on my iPod.

    Dear Customer,
    As you can see, your pre-requisite checks are failing because you are not on supported OS version.
    Please verify supported OS from SRSP guide (If you are on prior Siebel version 8.1.1.8) or Certification tab for all siebel versions from 8.1.1.9.
    I hope it helps.
    Best Regards,

    Hi RavindraKshirsagar,
    We have a problem like you faced. Our requirement is that, we need to generate dynamically the PERSON element in our javabean.
    <xs:element name='SERVICE_REQUESTER'>
              <xs:complexType>
                   <xs:sequence>
                        <xs:element ref='ORGANIZATION' />
                        <xs:element ref='PERSON' maxOccurs='unbounded' />
                   </xs:sequence>
              </xs:complexType>
         </xs:element>For this maxOccurs, as JAXB is not generating any Setter Method. As we need to get data dynamically from external application. If you could help us in handling this case dynamically, it will be well and good.
    Please send us the script / code asap.

  • Xml menu not showing in published html

    Hi all my problem is that when iam trying to publish an flash
    project containing a dynamic xml menu as html file ,the menu is not
    showing although it is showing in the accompannying swf file,any
    body knows the problem??

    There is not enough here to know what you are doing.
    Flash reads XML fine. You can then use that XML inside of
    Flash to create menus (or any UI thing) using Flash objects such as
    MovieClips and TextFields.
    You will not be able to create HTML based menus as Flash does
    not handle more than a few HTML tags via the TextField object.

  • Mediafire does not show download link

    It's been about a week since I last manage to download from Mediafire. When I click on a Mediafire link, the download link does not show although the page has finish loading. Refreshing the page repeatedly does not help and I've tried the solution to delete all cookies as stated on a similar thread (http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forum/1/673873) but it doesn't work either. After deleting all the cookies, clicking on the Myfiles link brings me to Mediafire's main webpage instead. Are there any ways to solve this? =( Please help!
