[solved] EA2 - managing widow size and placement

I cannot figure out how to get the connections window to be one long narrow vertical window along the left and the SQL worksheet window in a larger window on the right. Im clicking and dragging windows and just cannot seem to figure it out. I dont recall having this problem before. Can somebody explain to me the exact steps to make this happen. Has something changed with this?
Sorry.. Figured it out.. Right click on the connections tab and press Dock...

Also worth noting that when you drag windows around, if the little "blue box" snaps the edge of another window, it'll form another tab below or next to that window (depending on where the "snap" occurs. If the little "blue box" is centered within a tabbed window, it creates an additional tab. In either of these cases, the tab window is docked and can be minimized.

On a MBP with Mavericks how do I get the Save As dialog box to open at the same size and place at which it was last closed and used to happen before Mavericks?

Before I upgraded my MBP to Mavericks, the Save As dialog box would reopen at the same size and position as it was when last closed. Now with Mavericks it always opens in the same position at a very small size. Is there a way to make it reopen at the last place and size at which it was closed?

I have resolved the issues presented without having to find and uninstall the Macromedia Flash Player 8.0 in order to get "Adobe Flash Player 10" playback of .swf files on my computer. When I begin this task, I expected to download an "Adobe Flash Player 10" as a player program download instead of the Internet Explorer and Firefox plugin that it appears to be.
This is what I did and what I believe I have:
1. I setup Internet Explorer 6 as my default browser and then used the following site to download Adobe Flash Player 10
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/
2. As I had done before (and also suggested in another thread here), I went to Tools/Manage Add Ons and found Shockwave Flash Object, highlighted it, and clicked on Update Active X. Next, what I did not do before, I restarted the computer immediately after that.
3. Next, I set Mozilla Firefox as my default browser and then used the above site to download Adobe Flash Player 10 again.
4. With Firefox, the critical step included Firefox Tools/Options/Content with File Types (Configure how Firefox handles certain types of files) and the Manage Tab there. SWF Shockware Flash Object/Change Action/and dotting "use this plugin" - Shockwave Flash, followed by a computer restart got the job done.
Now, if I want playback of a .swf file, I can
a. Open With Internet Explorer (assumed with the Adobe Flash 10 "plugin")
b. Open With Mozilla Firefox (assumed with the Adobe Flash 10 "plugin")
c. Open With Macromedia Flash Player 8.0
I am satisfied with those results for my use. Any additional comments on the player vs plugin aspect of the matter would be interesting and helpful.

How do you save main window size and placement upon boot-up?

Is there any way for a dual-monitor user to convince InDesign to remember the size and shape of the main window when I boot up? I use InDesign on my second monitor, which I have rotated to portrait mode. The workspace I have saved remembers all of my menues and panels, but the main window always shows up on my main monitor. InDesign 5 remembered....
Also, how do you permanently turn off that damn "getting started" window?
Thanks.

I'm guessing your on a Mac with a recent version of Mac OS X. Am I correct?
You'll have the best luck having InDesign remember your window size if you choose Window > Application Frame. Then resize the frame to the size you prefer. It should stick.
People have found bugs with windows on a secondary monitor if they're using Mac OS X 10.10.2. If you're running 10.10.3 it should solve that problem.
To get rid of the Getting Started window, scroll to the bottom of most tabs, and choose not show the window again by checking a checkbox.

[solved] power management without HAL and pm-utils

hi guys! i got rid of hal and pm-utils, but i'm having some troubles now with the powersaving settings.
i'm using hibernate-script with uswsusp tools to hibernate etc, and laptop-mode-tools with acpi for the power management, but this looks like it isnt working anymore.
for example the screen backlight wont shut down anymore when i close the lid, despite the acpi action scripts are all ok.
far more importantly the cpu fan doen't ever start!! earlier this morning the cpu hit 77°C (while it's normally 40°) but the fan didn't kick in!
what can i do?
EDIT:
wait, maybe it's just the new kernel i've installed this morning! it's some days now that i've uninstalled hal and i think i would have noticed before!
Last edited by v43 (2011-02-23 11:25:10)

disabling laptop-mode-tools temporarily solved the problem. i mean the fan is now spinning free ^^
i'll try reinstalling it or downgrading the kernel later

How can I change the font size and placement of photo descriptions in an iPhoto slide show?

With an iPhoto slide show, how do I change the font size for titles and descriptions and position the text when preparing a slide show?

to change the pixels crop to 100x100 and export with maximum dimension of 100 - see the user tip on exporting foo details on Export options - Exporting From iPhoto
As to DPI - digital photos have no DPI since DPI is Dots Per Inch and digital photos have no inches hence no DPI - when you print a photo then DPI is a mathematical calculation - dots divided by inches - it is not a setting
Print a 480 pixel photos as a 1" square and the print it 480 DPI (480 / 1 = 480) and print the 100 pixel image as a 1" square it will be 100 DPI (100 / 1 = 100) - print a 480 pixel photo as a 4.8 inch square and it is 100 dpi (480 / 4.8 = 100) - just a calculation - not a setting

How can I use the bridge photos that are thumbnail size and place in Photoshop to edit, etc? The size is too small, - how to enlarge without blur?

When I use Bridge to transfer a photo into Photoshop, the size is thumbnail. It is too tiny to edit into Photoshop. How to enlarge without blur?

That is the actual size of your image file. 48 x 38 is very small.
That is not a Bridge or Photoshop problem.
It is a very small image and you cannot enlarge it more than x 1.5.
If you want a large photo you must ask for it from whoever gave it to you, or take a bigger photo if it is yours.

Image size and placement problems

I recently posted my website with iWeb. It shows up well on some computers, but on some computers the image is too large to fit on the screen and (bizarrely) the image sometimes starts halfway down the screen. This seems to happen without regard to browswers -- I have had problems on Firefox, Safari, and Explorer, but have also had it show up fine on all three of those browsers (on different computers).
I checked that the padding around the image is zero. What else could I change? I understand that the image could appear as a different size on different computers, but I don't understand why the image should show up halfway down the screen on some and on the top (as it should be) on other computers. Thanks!

The image apparently was added it to the page since it can be clicked on and dragged to the desktop. The image size is 1200 pixels wide by 600 high. You can trim off either side of that image to make is narrower so it will not force the page so wide. If you set the browser's background to the color of the the photo's background, the page background to none and make that photo narrower that will make it fit better.
Since Apple suggests that a page be 980 for iPhone compatibility trim 110 pixels off the left and right edges of the photo and make sure the photo is placed at the top of the page (remove the navbar and set the header to zero in the Inspector/Page/Layout jpane).

Editing size and placement on picture and textbox

Im new when it comes to Aparture, and Im kinda stuck trying to make a book. I would really like to be able to change the size of the picture and the textbox and also where on the page they are placed. Like being able to just take one corner and pull it bigger, like apple+t in photoshop. Is this possible? I see some are talking about a edit layout-button, but Im not able to find this.
Hope to get some help from you guys!

When you open a book layout, at the top it says "Theme". To the right of where it says "Theme" There are two boxes. The first one to the right is for Editing Content. The second box with dotted lines and a plus sign in the middle is the one for editing the layout. Click that one and you can change the size, location, etc. If you let your mouse hover over any of the icons for a few seconds, it will tell you what that icon does.

Editing size and placement of picture

I'm making a photo book and cannot adjust the size of picture frames in the layouts. When I click on "Edit Layout" I do see 8 "handle" boxes on the corners and sides, but I can't click on any of them and drag the frame to a different size. What am I missing? Thank you for the info!

the size of picture frames
Do you mean the The controls for the thickness of the "Photo Border"? They are accessible in the "Layout Options" pane; you show or hide it from the cogwheel below the "Pages" panel.
But if you can adjust the size of the border - or any other options - will dpend on the book theme you are using. Each theme has specific options, and many of them disable some layout changes, for example the "Formal" theme. You have the most freedom to change the layout with the "Classic" theme.

Size and Position of New Safari Windows

When I click on a link in safari and it opens a new window I would like to be able to have that window open at a particular size and position of my choosing. How can I do this?

I used to think that it used the same size and placement as the last window closed but it is not doing that for me now.
It should.
Since you're running Lion disable Resume > How To Disable Lion's 'Resume' Feature - MacRumors.com
Then restart your Mac.
If that doesn't help, go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari
Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac. Launch Safari. See if it will "remember' window size.

Size and position of dialog boxes

how do I set the default size and position of dialog boxes in the GUI editor?
I have tried a lot of things and it don't seem to work
thanks in advance

I don't want to customize them, I just want them to be a specific size and place to start with
right now they show up, either rolled up, in the upper left of my screen if I don't set the locationRelative parameter, or in the center of the screen, rolled up, if I set the locationRelative parameter

FYI: EASEUS Partition Manager Professional 64 and 32-bit

I recently saw this press release and thought it might be something of interest to this forum.
It is an inexpensive partition manager for Windows, both 64 and 32-bit.
It claims to be able to manage partition sizes and such on the fly. Naturally I would not do this without a backup, but here, FWIW is the link:
http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=prnw.20090211.LA69582&show_article=1&cat num=7
Part of their blurb is here:
EASEUS Partition Manager 3.0 Professional Edition works perfectly with Windows 2000/XP/Vista 32 and 64 bit systems on one machine - single licensed. Hardware RAID is also supported. This excellent partition tool lets you enjoy a wide range of powerful features: Resize and Move partitions without destroying any data, Copy Partition and Copy Disk to protect data; Create, Delete and Format partitions with simple steps, Hide and Unhide partitions, etc. Moreover, you are also able to create a bootable CD/DVD to manage 64-bit Windows partitions when there is a boot failure caused by virus or any other unexpected occurrence.

Symbols: size and efficiency

I have an MC in an animation that is a circle with a radial
gradient, roughly 200 x 200 pixels. At a later point in the
timeline, I'd like to have many of those objects moving around, but
each then only at a size of 10 x 10. (The effect is that I have
zoomed back.)
Do I save anything, in terms of processing time while running
the .swf, by creating a new Symbol for the smaller versions? IOW,
each instance would not have to be scaled down, one at a time, if I
instantiate them from an already reduced-size Symbol.
(And thanks to all for current and past answers to my
questions here.)

I don't want to customize them, I just want them to be a specific size and place to start with
right now they show up, either rolled up, in the upper left of my screen if I don't set the locationRelative parameter, or in the center of the screen, rolled up, if I set the locationRelative parameter

I have a iMac and i just updated the computer to Yosemite. I have Photoshop CS5 and when I try to print under print size --- manage custom size , photoshop unexpectedly quits every time. I updated the printer drivers (epson 9880) uninstalled and installed all the drivers. restarted computer and it is still doing the same thing. Cant find any costumer service here either except forums.

I have exactly the same problem - Whenever I go to Print, the print widow appears, it thinks about it for a bit (rotating symbol) and then quits.

[solved] dolphin file manager losing all custom places entries

Hi all,
I am getting phantom problem with dolphin file manager, i added custom place entries there but suddenly they diappear from dolphin.
There is no any pattern in disappearance. They appear for few days without any problem, even after shutdown/reboot. But suddenly some day they disappear and i have to add them again.
I want to find cause of this problem then fix it.
Or at least find config file where dolphin store configuration about custom places that i can backup and restore to get back entries.
I checked ~/.kde4/share/config/dolphinrc but couldn't find there anything about custom places.
I am using KDE 4.14.5 and Dolphin 14.11.97
Last edited by samtech09 (2015-02-16 13:02:09)

Hi samtech09,
dolphin stores the configuration of the custom places in ~/.local/share/user-places.xbel.
The problem you described has already been reported upstream: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343735
