[SOLVED] Cinnamon text unreadable after changing themes

Hello!
I recently installed Arch on my laptop, and decided to try Cinnamon as my DE. Everything worked wonderfully for a while, until I changed themes and then changed the panel layout to flipped (panel at the top). Suddenly all text became rectangles, and stayed that way after I changed it back to panel at the bottom. I uninstalled and reinstalled cinnamon, to no avail. This only happens when I'm using a theme other than the default. Here's an example:
Default theme working as it should
Different theme where everything has gone horribly wrong
I have no idea what's causing this, or how to fix it. I've deleted everything I can find related to cinnamon and reinstalled, and it still does this.

I've figured out that if I use a theme designed for the panel-on-top layout, everything works great with the panel still on the bottom, but if I use one designed for the panel-on-bottom layout, it doesn't work properly. It would seem in my case that cinnamon is getting "stuck" thinking that the layout is panel on top when it's really not.
EDIT: This issue seems to have resolved itself. There was a cinnamon update recently, but it did not fix this issue, so I'm not sure what exactly solved it.

Error after changing theme in xcelsius for custom component

Hi Experts,
I have created a custom datefield component with inputbinding. The component is working fine in xcelsius. but when I change theme/color scheme in xcelsius, while previewing, it throws me an error:
An error occured when loading the file. The SWF was not created. For more information contact the file creator or your system administrator.
This error comes only once and when I preview again, it works fine untill i change the theme/color scheme again in xcelsius.
Has anyone encountered such problem ?
Thanks

Shaped layers are not updating in ae after changing them in Photoshop

I created a photoshop CS3 file that has a grid and 3 layers with editable shapes (a graph that has to be changed daily). When importing them into AE CS3 as a comp cropped layers, After Effects sees the layers and layer masks correctly. The problem is when we go back into photoshop and only change the points on the shape layers, save the file, and open the saved After Effects file, the shaped layers are not updated. Even the reload footage does no avail .
Steps to reproduce issue
1. Create a layer in photoshop and make a shape
2. Save the photoshop file.
3. Import the Photoshop file in After Effects as a comp
4. Save the After Effects Project
5. Reopen the photoshop file and edit points on the shape layer.
6. Save the Photoshop file
7. Open the After Effects project.
8. The SHAPE layer WILL NOT UPDATE. The mask is still the same as the original first saved file.

No, they don't. Andrew is correct. Once imported, shape paths from PSDs will become masks and those have no relation to any external reference items. They are AE-internal. The apparent question is, how complex your graphs are. If you check out one of my old tutorials on creativeCOW you can find a line chart rigged with expressions and thus fully editable from within AE. Similar projects can be created for other chart types and in fact I had several of them already on my website (and will provide them again, if and when I get around to finally updating it). Also do not forget that you could use plugins such as Digital Anarchy's Data Animator (now owned by Red Giant and being reworked into an updated version called Datamator)...

KDE unusable after changing theme

I was using KDE, and I decided to change the default theme to another one listed. After which, my entire screen went blank and whenever I log in to KDE, the screen remains blank. I attempted to uninstall KDE and then reinstall it, but it stayed the same. Is there a way to reset it?

stressat wrote:Ctrl+Alt+F1 (F1 or F2, F3...F6)- log in as user and delete ~/.kde4.
Thanks, that helped. Now I just can't install KDE because I don't have enough freespace Even when I enter
pacman -Rnsc lxde followed by pacman -R lxdm to attempt to free up a lot of space. (That is the only DE on my current setup, so I assume that is what is taking up the majority of space). Any tips on that?

Imap email messages keep getting remarked unread after reading them?

I have a specific email address, which is accessed through Imap services. Whenever I read them, or mark them read, a few minutes or hours later, I will see that they have been marked unread again. The messages that seem to get automatically remarked unread all seem to be messages that had arrived during that day only.
Any idea how to fix this?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
With a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (step 1 should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive
2) Reboot
Pre-BB10 Devices ONLY. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
BB10 Devices. Hold the top button down until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the device to be fully shut down (e.g., nothing at all displayed on the screen, no LED lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red LED is lit. Wait through the full boot-up process. IF this fails, you can attempt the battery-pull method above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should try deleting and re-adding your configurations for the affected email accounts. Otherwise, you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
Good luck!

Why capital letters change in lower after copying them from a PDF document, or otherwise, why some uppercase are in fact lowercase when I look in the Text Property in any PDF Reader.

your home page to get into your Web site should be index.html (for Mac) or index.htm (on PC)
You can name it something other than index, but will be harder to find. when you create the subjects and link to them, they can can be named anything with the html extension Or if your using PHP end in .php. There is a Microsoft type asp or aspx but your hosting service has to set up using windows server system.
My hosting service use a Linux server normally but can convert Windows for a Fee. UNIX Linux has no concept of asp or aspx.

Will the penfailure be solved after changing the cartridges? Installing printer again did not help.

Hp Print Diagnnostic Utility detected 'Pen Failure' I tried reinstalling printer driver again, checked cartridges installation for correctness, cleaned contact points but they did not help. Will the penfailure be solved after changing the cartridges? Installing printer again did not help.

Yes, I did try it.
I completely uninstalled Firefox (including personal settings, bookmarks, add-ons etc.) and then I installed Firefox 24 from scratch. The outcome is unchanged. Namely, it installs it and then right when it is about to start for the very first time, it hangs. If I run the task manager I can see the process firefox32. It shows as if it is running. But in fact it is hanging doing nothing. It is almost as if the process is waiting for something to happen and that never occurs. Note that this should not have anything to do with, say, an incompatible add-on/plug in because I had them all removed. I also removed adobe flash prior to the installation and run the malware removal program too.

HT203421 I have recently purchased some apps from the app store and after downloading them, the icon that appears in the dock changes to a different icon. It is now the same icon appearing on all newly downloaded apps. Does anyone know what is happening

I have recently purchased some apps from the app store and after downloading them, the icon that appears in the dock changes to a different icon. It is now the same icon appearing on all newly downloaded apps. Does anyone know what is happening here? Even updating an older game app resulted in the original game icon changing to the new identical icon that all new apps are appearing with. This new icon is like a page with a ruler, pencil and paintbrush. Any tips on how to stop this or how to revert to the icon as it appears on the app store would be appreciated.

That has not worked. I do it and still it reverts. Isn't there a way to tell Firefox to just go back to default settings?

Both the 'delete' button and in the menu options do not delete messages but change them to unread. How can I remedy this?

The delete function seems to no longer work in Thunderbird. Both the 'delete' button and in the menu options do not delete messages but change them to unread.
I have tried to fix it by deleting the trash / deleted files as suggested in another thread but it made no difference. The delete key still works to delete things outside of Thunderbird (including here for example).
I have not uninstalled / reinstalled. I have rebooted a couple of times and it hasn't made any difference.
I did go through and delete a huge number of old emails a few days ago, but I have cleared out the Deleted folders and it made no difference.
All suggestions appreciated.

Right click on any of the other right panel headers in Slideshow module to open the context menu. You should be able to reactivate the Options panel from there.

Windows Theme not applied after changing OS language

Hi,
I have a theme(.theme file) which I have created and applied on my system. However after I change the language from "Control Panel > Region and Language" setting, my theme which was applied goes away. I tried retaining the theme
by Enabling below settings in Group Policy but was of no help.

Does anyone know the solution to this? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
For the deny error message, it would be better to use Process Monitor to capture the trace and it would record the deny message when you encounter the error.
Process Monitor:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx
If there is any difficult to use Process Monitor,please feel free let me know.
In addition, I'm not suggest you use 3rd theame in Windows 7, it's probably infect system stability with a lot of unknown problem.

TS2518 My RAW (nikon .NEF) files changing to a dull, darker version of themselves after selecting them for the first time after import.

My RAW (nikon .NEF) files are literally changing to a dull, darker version of themselves after selecting them for the first time after import. I.e. The correct photo (light/color/etc) seems to be there and then a second later the photo changes. It's almost like it's showing a quick enhanced version then back to basic raw image. Started within last two updates.
Is there a fix or is this the straw that forces a switch to Lightroom?

Just recall that Aperture (or any other 3rd party raw converter) has NO information about the JPEG preview and how it was made. That information is camera-vendor proprietary.
Also note that there are like 6 "picture styles" in camera and this change you're seeing is entirely dependent on how you have them set. If you have your camera set to "vivid" or something you'll see more of a change than if your on-camera is set to "faithful."
That said, people here ALSO complain that Aperture's initial renders are TOO vivid, the exact opposite of your complaint, so you can't please everybody (in some cases, it seems you can't please ANYBODY ;-)
Aperture provides a starting point. Again, if you don't like it, you can tell Aperture to go with a "punchier" interpretation at its first render. In the import dialog, try setting Aperture to use the "auto enhance" preset which is built in. Aperture will add a little vibrancy adjustment, and it will add a curve, which will greatly add punch to the image. If you want adjustments in a different direction, you can create a preset and set it at import.
The only thing Aperture CANNOT do is what you're asking, which is "take the JPEG that my camera vendor generates through some voodoo and try and render the raw file just like that." It's, unfortunately, impossible to do.

After installing Windows 7 my desktop Adobe icons have change in appearance. How do I change them back?

After installing Windows 7 my desktop Adobe icons have change in appearance. How do I change them back?

The file icons is one on the change features MS removed from the Explorer options. Supposedly you can do the change with the registry, though I have not figured out that option. If you want to try, backup the registry first and then you might try the instructions at How to Change a File Type Icon in Windows 7 and Vista - The Winhelponline Blog. If the application icon is not correct, try to fix that before the approach above. Good luck and be careful (dealing with the registry can make your computer not work..

Why does my photos change after importing them?

I've shot hundreds of pictures from a wedding in sunny Toscana, Italy with a new Sony Hybrid Camera. They're all shot in RAW and looks good in the camera preview. When I import the pictures to Aperture, they look the same in the "filmstrip":
But then, after selecting them, they change into extremely overexposed versions that can't be used.
I don't get the same issue when I open them with Photoshop. What is going on?

Toning this down to half helped a lot. But now it looks kind of gray.
By default the settings should be o.k. Leave the "hue" boost at a higher value.
It's a pity, that your first encounter with Aperture is this bad.
Then you have to do all sort of tweaks and tuning to get them back in decent shape.
Is this your first encounter with RAW images as well? RAW photos will generally need a lot of tweaking, since the RAW format is the naked data right of the sensor, without any effects and adjustments applied. RAW is the image format for those photographers that want to develope and tweak the digital negative themselves. If you are happy with the RAW developement that your camera does, consider to set the camera to shoot high quality JPEGS or TIFF images. Then you will have the RAW developement of the camera as the starting point for your own tweaking and do not need to start from point zero and do the basic adjustments as well.
