Slide down dialog not visible

This is really a bug report which I tried to put in Apple feedback but it was too long to fit there.
Problem: I was typing in an address bar and a slide down for an error or warning appeared but I could only see the edge of the dialog. It then disappeared because I was typing. I never did see the dialog and I do not know what I accidentally said "ok" to. This happened a couple times in a row, as I tried to figure out what was going on, but I was never able to read the warning or error message.
To reproduce: I can't fully reproduce this because I can't cause an error or warning to occur at just the right time.
I had a small Safari window open, measuring 558 x 338. It was a pop up from a Ning chat room on a private site and as such did not have an address bar or a bookmarks bar.
I selected it and typed cmd-T to open up a tab in it.
I started typing to the address bar intending to select an url from the drop down.
Problem 1:
What happened:   A warning or error appeared but I could only see the left edge of it because the drop down from the address bar was over top of most of the error or warning dialog.
I expected: To be able to see and read warning and error dialogs. I still don't know why this error or warning occurred.
Problem 2:
What happened: Typing enter caused the error or warning to disappear as if I clicked "ok".
I expected: To select something on the drop down list and then maybe see the error.
As I mentioned above, I tried this a couple times just trying to figure out what was happening, and this warning or warning did appear about 3 times, though I never got a chance to see it. I was going to try resizing the window the next time to see if that would make a difference but it stopped happening.
I checked the console and found errors about this which makes it looks like it happened 6 times. I'm wondering now if the dialog was completely hidden at other times because I didn't notice this happening 6 times. The first occurrence is below. There are no earlier messages from Safari in the console to indicate what this warning or error might have been about.

An addendum about something I hadn't noticed before. If you find yourself in this situation, if you try resizing the window, the URL dropdown might disappear. It does disappear if there isn't a slide down. Once it's gone, the slide down might still be there for you to read.
Though if you're like me, you're probably typing so fast that you hit enter before you quite realize the slide down is there. This also doesn't help if the slide down is completely hidden and so you don't even know it's there...

Plugin Dialog not visible in Photoshop CS4 64bit

Hi all,
I am new in the world of photoshop plugins. I am using adobe photoshop CS4 64bit environment.
I have converted a 32bit plugin into a 64bit plugin. I have succesfully loaded the plugin .
Now my problem is when i click on the pluginName from the menu list, my plugin dialog is not visible. I am using DialogBoxParam API to show the
dialog within the "DoUI" method but this API(DialogBoxParam) is returning an error value. I have used the GetLastError and got the below mentioned
error:
Error 1813: The specified resource type can not be found in the image file.
The 32bit plugin is running succesfully with this dialog resource. I am using the same .rc file which i am using in 32 bit plugin.
Please help me, it is very urgent for me..
Thanks in advance.. Any type of help is highly appreciated. If anybody has any problem in understanding my problem please revert me back i will try to
make it more clear

Hi,
I think i have not described my problem well..
I'll try it again to make it more clear..
I have a 32 bit filter plugin, which is running successfully on Photoshop CS4 32-bit environment. Now i want my plugin to be run on CS4 64bit environment as well. When i tried to run my plugin in the 64-bit environment with all the 64-bit settings which are required, my plugin is not loaded succesfully. Then i used a sample 64-bit plugin(Dissolve) and put my plugin code inside dissolve plugins code. Changed the dissolve.r file with my plugin .r file and dissolve.rc file with my plugin .rc file. Now my plugin is loading succesfully but when i click the plugin from filter menu list, my plugin dialog is not shown. I do not understand why is it happening? Plz provide some information.

Slide down menu not sliding up

I created a slide down menu and for the most part it works when you click on each link, but for some reason, it hangs if you have one link expanded and you click on another link:
http://www.christinakajtsa.com/red-nav.swf
I used an old .fla file and it worked fine but when I added an extra category to it, the menu went all crazy. I'm not sure how to fix it. Help!
I have buttons set up which call on frame names:
on (release) {
    if (_global.state == "e") {
        _parent.gotoAndPlay("eclose");
        _parent.c.gotoAndPlay(1);
        if (_global.state == "f") {
        _parent.gotoAndPlay("fclose");
        _parent.E.gotoAndPlay(1);
    if (_global.state == "a") {
        _parent.gotoAndPlay("aclose");
        _parent.E.gotoAndPlay(1);
    _global.state = "c";
    _parent.gotoAndPlay("copen");
    _parent._parent.section.gotoAndPlay("two");
    play();

It's pretty difficult to tell what might be wrong without seeing the actual file. From your example, I'm guessing that each item in the menu is animated in its own layer, and that you have sections of the timeline that will animate each item open. You are telling one item to animate closed and then telling another item to animate open. The problem could be with the parent child relationships, or with the naming of the movieClips, or something else entirely.

EFFECTS SUBCATEGORY DROP-DOWN MENU NOT VISIBLE

PSE 6 (MAC) THE EFFECTS PALETTE HAS A SUBCATEGORY DROP-DOWN MENU HAS DISAPPEARED AND I CANNOT GET IT BACK. PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW TO GET IT BACK. I HAVE TRIED TO RESET THE PALETTE LOCATIONS AND IT REAPPEARS BUT WHEN I CLICK ON IT, IT IMMEDIATELY DISAPPEARS AGAIN.

Hello, Scott. Please don't shout. Quit PSE, then go to your hard drive>library>application support>adobe>Photoshop Elements>6.0>locale>en_US (this will be different if you aren't in the US) and delete mediaDatabase.db3.
Repair permissions and relaunch PSE. Give it time to rebuild the palettes before you start using the program.
Also, note that you have 3 library folders. You want the one at the top level of your hard drive, not system>library or your username>library.

Drop Down is not Visible

Hi All,
We have encountered an issue after Upgrade. We have an BSP application in out portal(7.0). Through that HR persons are handling their activity.
We have upgraded ECC to EHP7 SP4 and UAT is going on. In UAT user is facing the issue.
One HR Manager is synching his id with another user id and then going to the Proxy link to change the employee information for the another user as a proxy manager. Here The user is not able see the drop down to select and Action item to complete job.
User is able to do the same in production. We have checked user's role and Structural profiles in both UAT and production environment and Both are same.
Can anybody please suggest what is the issue?

Then it is possibly a coding error which reacts to that rc=4 incorrectly in EHP7. PSIGN=* should have no meaning as it can either be I or E.
'*' should be ignored.
If both trace results are the same, then the coding in the function module must have changed in how it reacts to it, or the calling BSP (looks like it is coming in with a logon ticket from a portal) has implications on the BSP side that dropdowns are not supported anymore in the way it has been coded. Eg. the search help has changed or the structure for the output has changed.
I tip on incompatibility with your BSP. SAP made a few changes to this FM recently...
Is there no BAPI for this?
What we do here is that we classify data objects and have a list of APIs for them. Then we scan our code to check that the call stack comes from the stables APIs and not some FMs which happen to be remote enabled. Same for correct use of methods which contain correct validations and checks - particularly if the data model changes.
You could try to open a customer message with SAP and tell them which FM you are calling, but 90% sure they will say it is not supported and 99,9% sure they will say that your BSP code is the problem.
Try it and let us know (if you did not do that already).
Cheers,
Julius

Paid Down Payment Request from 2007 not visible in 8.8

Hello experts:
I recently upgraded a customer from 2007 to 8.8, and an existing fully paid down payment request is now not visible anymore in the "incoming payment" window due to some of the changes in 8.8. But I also cannot reconcile the transaction because paid down payment requests cannot be reconciled.
I tried to cancel the incoming payment in order to apply it differently, but that also fails with a strange error message ("Cannot cancel payment: One of the credit notes has been deleted. [3524-6]").
I could create a JE to transfer the balance from the liabilities account to the asset account within the BP, then reconcile the two transactions in the asset account, and effectively having zero balance in the liabilities account, but I'd like to reconcile the two transactions in the liabilities account as well, so that they're really closed.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Joerg.

Thanks for your reply Jitin.
My issue is related to A/R, so the mentioned query doesn't turn up any results. However, a few minutes ago, the same issue appeared in A/P, so I tried the query again, with no luck.
I will proceed to log a support message and post back with the solution.
Thanks,

Drop down list(JComboBox) - Bottom border is not visible for the first time

Drop down list(Combo-box) JComboBox - Bottom border is not visible for the first time i click on the arrow to drop the list down.
I am using jdk1.3.1_02.
Did any one face this issue.
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Sridhar.

I must be a little confused regarding your question.
You can simply change your code frame.setSize(200, 200); to frame.setSize(400, 400);When you say you are unable to see the border are you specifically talking about the border of the frame or the border of the combo box?

OK button not visible in popup dialog box.

Hi,
There is some problem with the popup dialog boxes that I am using. Sometimes I can see the OK button while sometimes it is not visible.
Any clue regarding this odd behaviour?
Many Thanks,
Anagha

HI everybody,
I am also having similar error now.
IN the standard Dialog box, I am not able to get the button, despite of doing everything properly.
Please find the code used:
IWDControllerInfo conInfo= wdThis.wdGetAPI().getControllerInfo();
                              IWDEventHandlerInfo evntInfo = conInfo.findInEventHandlers("Ok");
                              IWDConfirmationDialog confDialog =wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createConfirmationWindow("Please Enter a search Criteria", evntInfo , "OK");
                              confDialog.setTitle("Confirmation Window");
                              confDialog.open();
I have created the eventhanler.
I tried all possible ways but nothing has resolved the issue.
The only difference is that I need to place this code in custom controller only.

ITunes 12: Buttons missing in dialog boxes (not visible)

Hello.
Since using iTunes 12 (in my case: German version) buttons like YES/NO or OK/CANCEL are not shown in smaller dialog boxes when iTunes wants to interact with the user and asks question whether to do this or to do that.
The buttons are just not visible, the boxes are too small and they cannot be resized (= fixed size). I think this could be due to longer German texts in the dialog boxes compared to the English language version.
The buttons are there but cannot be seen or clicked.
Screen resolution is 1920x1200 and text zoom factor is 100% in Windows 7. Window size for these dialog boxes seems to be hard-corded and due to line breaks and longer texts in German the YES/NO buttons seem to get an unexpected carriage return moving the buttons out of the visible area.
Please fix this!
Kind regards,
Argentinos

Example: here a part of the buttons is visible but in many dialog boxes they are completely cut off.

Return results from custom dialog box not visibly updating field value

I have a form with custom dialog boxes (execDialog) for data entry. The dialog box is being called from the Entry event successfully. I also have it called from the Click event. So, here's what I get:
1. On entering the field, I get the dialog box pop up, I select a value, it visibly changes the field raw value and leaves focus in the field.
2. If I exit the field and re-enter, it also works as in point 1 (as expected)
3. If, while focus is already in the field, I click in the field, I get the dialog box, as expected, but after selecting a value from the dialog, the field raw value DOES NOT VISIBLY change until I exit the field! It's kind of like the click event is working in conjunction with the Exit event. This is totally counter-intuitive for a production form that is being designed for the general populace.
Anyone had any experience with this?
Cheers,
Marty.

Thom Parker answered this here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2614570#2614570
Answer copied below:
"The problem is that when the focus is on the text box
it's in edit mode. It's only displaying the value interactively entered by
the user, or as a consequence of the change event. What you need to do is
force the focus off of the text box in code. You can do a little trick
where you bounce it to a tiny transparent field, which then bounds the focus
back so it doesn't look like the focus changed."
What I ended up doing was calling up the dialog box, then using setfocus with no parameters to remove focus from the field, as follows:
this.rawValue = this.dialogBoxFunction(this.rawValue); // passing current value so dialog box defaults to that value
xfa.host.setFocus();

Marty.
