Simple button highlights in PSD menu not working properly in Encore

I'm having some trouble making even basic menus this week - I'm working on a couple of projects that need simple menus on their DVDs, but I can't get them to work.
For one project, it's a simple menu with a photo as the background and two buttons - 'Play' and 'Behind the Scenes'. Each button group consists of a text layer with the button title and a layer called '(=1) Highlight'. The highlight layer is a simple straight line underneath the text. Nothing is overlapping, however the line is not appearing on one of the buttons. The group is detected as a button in Encore, and works when it is linked to the timeline, but the line does not appear
With the other project I've been working on this week, there's a few menu pages - a main menu, and some chapter select sub menus. These menus look a bit fancier, but the buttons are still fairly simple - they basically consist of a line of text, but this time the highlight is a rectangular outline. I'm having what looks like the same problem with these menus - the highlights aren't displaying correctly. Most of the outlines are missing their bottom lines - so only a three-sided box is appearing.
I've made plenty of menus before using the same method, and more complicated ones than this too, without running into any issues. I haven't been able to figure out what the problem is, despite starting over and making the menus from scratch several times, and making them one step at a time, importing them into Encore at every step to test. At some point, one or more of the highlights will always stop working. Despite this systematic approach, I'm still baffled. I'm using Photoshop CS5.1 and Encore CS5.1. After running into problems on one computer I tried making menus from scratch on another computer with the same version software but had the same problem.
Has anyone got any suggestions of things I should try that might solve this problem? I can send an example of a menu that's not working for me if anyone would like to take a look.

Thank you, everyone, for your continued support.
I have tried everything suggested here, plus lots more, since I last posted. There are glitches no matter what I do. I don't think it's anything to do with what I'm doing in Photoshop as I've tried using some menus from the Encore library and I'm having the same problem with those. I've also tried using buttons from the Encore library on my menus with the same result.
But that got me to thinking - perhaps it's just a glitch with Encore's previews. So I tried actually building a DVD image, even with the menus that appeared to be broken, and they turned out to be fine. So it must just be a glitch in the Encore preview.
I've also discovered another bug while doing this - if you create a menu in Encore, it's always NTSC, even if the project is PAL. It makes a 4:3, 720x480 menu with a PAR of D1/DV NTSC 0.91. Surely, if you've set up a PAL project, and you create a new menu, it should create one that's actually PAL?

    If there's a hardware defect and your phone is under warranty, bring it to Apple for replacement.

  • My iphone5c is still under the 1 year warranty, the top button constantly sticks and does not work properly will Apple still replace my phone even though there is a few chips and scratches on the back?

    As Peter says above, only an Apple Store genius can advise you.
    But to further clarify, you seem to postulate that if Apple helps you, the cure would be a replacement.  That is not necessarily true.  Let them look at it and advise you what the remedy is.  They may offer you nothing (saying it's your fault), or they may offer you a solution (keeping your current iPhone), or possibly a replacement.

  • Continue Button on Quiz Results Slide NOT Working Properly

    I'm experiencing a functionality issue with the "Continue"
    button on the Quiz Results slide:
    Situation 1: After initially completing the quiz, I need to
    click the "Continue" button on the Quiz Results slide only once to
    advance to the next (and last) slide in the quiz movie. This is
    fine & works as I would expect.
    Situation 2: After initially completing the quiz, if instead
    I choose to review the quiz, later when I get to the Quiz Results
    slide, I need to click the "Continue" button TWICE to advance to
    the next (and last) slide in the quiz movie. This does NOT work as
    I would expect.
    Any idea why only 1 click is needed in the Situation 1 while
    2 clicks are needed in Situation 2? Any way to fix Situation 2 so
    that only 1 click is needed?
    Thanks much!

    CapManZ,
    Whether the Continue button on the Quiz Results slide
    requires one or two clicks is mysterious indeed. See
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=67&catid=464&threadid =1302278
    for another discussion about its misbehavor.
    Actually, the number of clicks required depends on how long
    you wait after the Quiz Results slide appears, prior to clicking
    the Continue button. In your situation 1 you probably answered
    questions rather than using the skip button, so you viewed the
    question slides for a while prior to arriving at results. In your
    situation 2 you probably used the Skip button to zip through the
    slides to return to the results screen. Try this. In situation 2,
    when you get to the Quiz Results slide, instead of clicking the
    Continue button, go get a cuppa joe and then see if a single click
    will work. If so please let me know.
    I've experimented with a Captivate 2 multiple choice quiz in
    a slide show that contained only 10 questions and the Results
    slide. I added a text caption with fade in and fade out enabled
    (the default) to the Results slide. I found that after the caption
    fades in, one click on the continue button advances the slide. So I
    used the caption's appearance to help measure the timing.
    In the tests below I skipped as rapidly as possible, pausing
    at various slides to see how it affected the single click
    threshold.
    Skip all slides: 28 sec
    View slide 1 for 60 sec and then skip: 28 sec
    Skip to slide 5, pause 30 sec, and then skip: 13 sec
    Skip to slide 10, pause 30 sec, and then skip: 2-3 sec
    Answer each slide (took more than 30 sec): 2-3 sec
    Skip all slides, click Continue as fast as possible: 2-3 sec
    I also reduced the number of question slides in the quiz and
    skipped all slides.
    7 questions: 18 sec
    3 questions: 7 sec
    I believe the threshold value (the duration required before
    clicking the Continue button advances to the next slide) is
    composed of two durations which add together to determine the
    threshold. The Result's slide's timeline probably sets the
    threshold's lower limit. Clicks prior to 3 seconds are ignored.
    Time per slide and number of slides left to go sets the upper limit
    for the threshold. The slower the movement, the lower the
    threshold.
    Several conclusions:
    This probably isn't a situation in which the first click is
    ignored. Instead the first click reduces the threshold's value to
    the lower limit. The second click would then typically occur after
    3 additional seconds, particularly if the user is surprised that
    the first click didn't work and pauses slightly. A very fast
    additional click on the Continue button is ignored as well.
    Long quizzes will cause more complaints about the issue
    because of what you experienced. It typically takes longer to
    answer the quiz than review it.
    Perhaps there's a workaround that would alert the user that
    the Continue button is ready for clicking. I'm thinking that since
    the text caption fade-in coincides with being ready to continue, an
    image or the like might do the trick. Any suggestions out there?
    Humm, a better alternative might be to show some images of
    snacks on the results slide background. Through suggestive selling,
    the user realizes it's time for a break and clicks Continue after
    returning with that cuppa joe. And the sound you hear? It's the
    Captivate developers giggling if they read my conclusions. Too bad
    they're mum, since some real info might make it easier to make
    Captivate behave. Ah well.

  • Dreamweaver Spry Menu Not Working Properly

    Hello,
    I'm putting a horizontal spry menu bar into a table cell (I haven't had the time to learn how to use divs yet and tables have been working fine for me).  I have 6 items in the menu with 2 or3 drop down menus for each one.  When I view it in live view, when I roll over the menu items, the whole bar drops down to the left side and becomes vertical.  Why is this happening?  It is shorter than the table cell so that shouldn't be the problem.  Thank you for your help. 

    Okay, this is crude, but it's as far as I got.  Only some of the buttons cause the menu to move down.  Please keep in mind that I am a designer, not a programmer.  I'm learning, but am very weak when it comes to coding knowledge.  Thanks.

  • "ThinkVant​age Tools" Jump List in Start Menu not working properly

    Hello All:
    I have a very new (3 days old) W520, model number 4270 CTO.  This product arrived with many unique and useful ThinkVantage Tools installed.
    For reasons I cannot comprehend, the jump list attached to the "ThinkVantage Tools" entry in the start menu (the frequently used items portion of the start menu) is not opening up to show all of the various ThinkVantage Tools that are available, instead; it is opening up to show what appears to be 'recent places' I have visited using the OS (in other words, kind of like the Windows 7 'recent places' shortcut'.
    Can anyone provide me with a suggestion about how to solve this problem, and get the jump list to display the various subsidiary tools, rather than the recent places I have been to with Windows Explorer?  Photo showing the problem is below.

    Notice the problem with the subsidiary jump list...

    Serge:
    I need a little bit of help figuring out exactly what to remove, and where to go to get the replacement application to re-install.
    I took a look at the various Lenovo applications listed in the "Programs and Features" control panel, and all of them appear to be specific tasks (for example, Power Manager, Access Connections, Active Protection, etc.).  There does not appear to be an entry on that list for "Lenovo ThinkVantage Tools".
    I also took a closer look at what the entry in the start menu (pictured above) references.  When I examine the Properties for this entry, it shows the following reference: "C:\Windows\explorer.exe ::{26EE0668-A00A-44D7-9371-BEB064C98683}\2\::{A8A9​1A66-3A7D-4424-8D24-04E180695C7A}\Provider%5CMicro​soft.Base.DeviceDisplayObjects//DDO:%7B00000000-00​00-0000-FFFF-FFFFFFFFFFFF%7D\cat{8AA6B0C2-14A6-4da​8-BF36-F7D93ACE9ACE}".
    Selecting the 'Open File Location' button from the Properties sheet refers me to the explorer.exe application that is contained in the 'C:\Windows' folder.
    I would be very grateful if you would tell me exactly how to remove and reinstall this item - in particular, where should I go to find the installer package to reinstall it?  I have looked at the W520 Device Driver File Matrix, under the 'ThinkVantage Technologies' heading, and can't find any entry that explicitly says "Lenovo ThinkVantage Tools".
    Thanks again for your help.

  • Reset Button in Creator 2 does not work properly

    Hi,
    I have created a form to create a user profile using Studio Creator Update 1. It has a few text fields. It has a checkbox "Add more details" which when clicked enables a few more text fields. At the end of the form I have a Submit and a Reset button.
    Now, when I fill the form (without touching the 'Add more details' checkbox) and click the Reset button, the text fields becomes blank as expencted.
    Lets say I enter some values in a few text field, then I check the checkbox, some more fields gets enabled (i do this inside the processValue method). Now, if I click Reset button, the form does not get blank. Even worst, if I change the already typed text field values and click Reset, these text field gets repopulated with original values. Is this a bug or a feature.
    Any solution for this problem is greatly appretiated.
    Regards,
    Shastri.

  • Audition CS6 Help menu not working

    I have downloaded Audition CS6. When I go to 'Help' i get error 10. Is there no help file with the trial?

    Hi All,
    I found this on the web and it works!
    <http://forums.adobe.com/message/4417566#4417566> CS6 Help Menu Not Working
    This does not apply to one application, but is a suite wide fix.
    I had been running the CS6 Master Collection trial download version and the help menu, specifically the online "Help" and "Support Center" listed on the main help menu dropdowns of all applications within the suite, was not working, able to connect, or an error that the folder did not exist (apparently corrupted).
    Once I just got the CS6 Master Collection (DVDs) I uninstalled the trials, then installed the hard copy version, with the normal reboot in between. The Help menus still did not work.
    This is what I'm running. : Windows 7 Pro 64-bit
    I called Adobe support and the following was my solution for both my desktop and netbook with this problem.
    1.    Close all running Adobe applications.
    2.    In the directory C:/Program Files (x86)/Adobe/  Delete the "Adobe Help" folder.
    (C:Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Adobe Help/)
    3.    Reboot
    4.    Then go to Adobe.com/support/chc/   (this is the "community help center")
    5.    Click under "Step 2" the "Install Now*" button.
    6.    On one of the windows that open there is a Preferences drop down menu. Select the one that allows online help connection as well as local.
    7.    Click "download" to begin the folder download. The downloaded folders are more than 1 GB for the CS6 Master Suite help files. Watch at the bottom left of the download window to see the small progress meter.
    8.    Once done, reboot.
    My CS6 Master Collection help menus throughout were fixed by completing the above.
    Thanks Tom! ...at Adobe support for this fix procedure.
    I hope this helps someone else out there.

    Hello. I sent my WRT1900AC V1 to Linksys four days ago (Monday) via UPS with a RMA. Linksys paid the shipping and everything. The router is still in route, and it should arrive to their offices tomorrow. Once they receive the WRT1900 AC V1, they are going to send me an EA8500 as a replacement. But I have been reading the comments about the EA8500 here in the forum and it seems to have the same problems. I guess the firmware is extremely flawed in both routers (maybe it is almost the same code?). Anyway, I will try the EA8500 and I hope it works. I bought a temporary router from Walmart and I paid $35 for it. It is a Belink N600 DB. I can't believe that a $35 router is working a lot, lot, lot better than my previous $250 WRT1900AC router. Unbelievable. If the EA8500 doesn't work, I'm going to try and get my money back from Linksys, or contact The Consumerist or someone to get my money back and get a Nighthawk instead.
