[Solved][Gnome 3 & MATLAB] Matlab menus are not usable.

Hello,
I'm struggling with MATLAB R2010b and Gnome 3. It seems that Matlab can't get informations from Mutter about window size and position. This makes menus (File, Edit, etc.) not usable. If I click, let's say, File on menubar the menu shows near the middle of the screen or just disappears while I release left mouse button. However if window is maximized in right part of the screen (using this cool new feature), which is the starting position and size of MATLAB for me everything works fine. If I maximize it and then make it half-screen size it stops working. I just checked under Xfce4.8 and there is no such problems. I start matlab with "-desktop" parameter, but is seems that doesn't change anything. System is fully updated. And I'm using 64-bits Arch. Is there any solution other than using Xfce or waiting for it to be fixed? Thanks in advance.
Just eliminated window position as potential factor of this problem. I deleted .matlab folder and window starts in the middle of the screen, but is not maximized. If I maximize it I can't access menus normally. So the solution would be starting matlab in maximized window, but I really don't know how to do that.
I found the solution. You can do that by moving matlab window to upper left corner and re-size it manually or use devilspie with this rule:
( if
( begin
( contains ( window_name ) "MATLAB" )
( begin
( maximize )
( println "match" )

Yay, Thanks for letting me know that gnome-terminal finally fixed this bug!
Yes, previously gnome-terminal just declared TERM as "xterm" so vim etc, by default, only used 16 colors. Now I can go and remove the bashrc/vimrc hacks I had to work around this.

The UI text of the menus are not readable so it's impossible to work with

Hi
I install the photoshop cs6(x64) and i have the following problem. The UI text of the menus(not the toolbar drop down menus) are not readable so it's impossible to work with. After that, I completely uninstall the cs6 photoshop and i tried to install photoshop cc(x64)-with clean install- but the problem still exist.
Also I tried to change display settings from 1600x900(recommened)but the problem still exist...I send you some photos of the menus to understand better what I mean.Any suggestions? Specifications
Toshiba Satellite L775-15NWin 7 Home Premium SP1 x64
Intel Core i5-2430M 2.4GHz
Ram 8gb
Monitor 17"
Geforce GT 525M

Right click on your desktop and choose Properties, then choose Window Color, Advanced Appearance settings...
Click on the Message Text to look at your Message Box item settings. Is the font Segoe UI, 9 point, color black?
Also, in Photoshop, check your Edit - Preferences - Interface menu. What is your UI Font Size there? Try changing it to something else, closing and restarting Photoshop, then changing it back.
Lastly, you could try resetting your Photoshop preferences to defaults. Press and hold Command - Shift - Option simultaneously (or Control - Shift - Alt if on a PC) immediately upon cold-starting Photoshop. If you get the keys down quickly enough - and you have to be really quick - it will prompt you to confirm deletion of your current preferences, which will lead to the establishment of a fresh default set. If it does not prompt you, you haven't been quick enough to get the keys down.

Horizontal Spry Menus are not showing up in ANY browser HELP!

www.tvnewsjunkie.com
I am a novice web designer and I need help!
The above site listed is the site I am currently working on. As you can see the menu bar...is not a menu bar at all but a long list of links along the left side.
HOWEVER, when I click on LIVE VIEW in DreamWeaver everything looks fine.
There should be 7 total menu bars with 7 Dropdown menu options each (except on the bottom menu bar which there will only be 4 I believe)
What am I doing wrong??

Thank you so much for your help!This matter is certainly closed.
I just want to add, however, that somehow my Spry Assets folder was placed somewhere outside of the rest of my files! no wonder I was confused.
Thank you again!

KDE5 Application menus are not correct

I have always wrestled with little things like this when I toy with KDE. As you can see in this image, my menus are not correct. What is causing this? I'm sorry, but I always get lost trying to sort out what covers button styles, application menu styles, and desktop theme. I can't seem to get these menus to change, but they don't look like what I'm seeing in other's images.
I'm just testing out Plasma 5. What am I doing wrong?

Well it isn't listed as a dependency. At any rate, what I meant was that I hadn't explicitly installed it. If it was part of a group it would have been installed. I did have the breeze workspace theme. Where should one set qtcurve to affect the menus?

I'm running Safari 6.0.5 - Mac OS 10.8.4 -- when I load my gmail the block around the DELETE and MOVE tabs are not usable - press buttons but nothing happens. ???

I'm running Safari 6.0.5 - Mac OS 10.8.4 -- when I load my gmail the block around the DELETE and MOVE tabs are not usable - press buttons but nothing happens. ???
I can see the block (flashes) and the buttons are no longer usable.
I have Empted Cache but doesn't seem to help.

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

Mathscript all matlab functions are not working

Hello,
I am using mathscript node in my labview development. I have used right away "imfill" function to fill the holes in my edge detected image. But the "imfill" function is not working in mathscript.
How could I use this function in mathscript?
Attachments:

Did you take this code directly from MATLAB and put it in the MathScript node? (I'm guessing the imfill function is a MATLAB function?)
If so, you're going to be sorely dissapointed. While MATLAB and the MathScript node both use .m files, they are not the same language. The language is very similar, but the syntax differs slightly in some cases. My guess (since I've used MATLAB but never the imfill function) is that the imfill function is part of a toolkit for MATLAB. Unless the MathScript node has a corresponding function (you'd have to search the help to see) you will not be able to use this function in the MathScript node.
If the MathScript node has no corresponding function and you must use this function in LabVIEW, I would reccommend the MATLAB Script Node. This structure actually calls MATLAB through the ActiveX interface. This means that you must have MATLAB installed on the computer you are running your VI on.

[SOLVED]GNOME-SYSTEM-TOOLS: The configuration could not be loaded

Hello there!
I'm a ubuntu user completely new to arch. I got my desktop up and running but there seems to be a problem setting up the gnome-system-tools program. Whenever I try to laaunch any application in this package I get this error message:
The configuration could not be loaded
You are not allowed to access the system configuration.
I tried the solution on this forum thread (http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=45854 ), but to no avail. I am still getting the same error message. This is my DAEMONS line in rc.conf:
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng hal stbd !network !dhcdbd !networkmanager wicd netfs crond alsa fam gdm)
I have added both my user and root to the stb-admin group, this is the part of my groups file that shows this:
stb-admin:x:103:root,abhishek
Can anyone please help me figure out where I'm going wrong.
Many thanks in advance.

I was reading post installation wiki and found the following command to reinstall the whole system:
pacman -S $(comm -3 <(pacman -Qq) <(pacman -Qqm))
As a few things were not going right and I was unable to solve the problems using the ordinary methods, I decided to run the above command and now everything seems to be working fine .Though I'm not sure that this will remain like that, as the process was inturrpted a couple of times such that I had to hard reset the laptop.
But everything seems to be going fine now - the system tools have started to work normally and another gnome-related problem has been solved.:D

Right click menus are not readable

My problem is that right click menus does not show correctly in Thunderbird. They are there but wrong size not readable.

[SOLVED] GNOME 3.2 and Nautilus are Case Sensitive. What do?

I just migrated from KDE 4.8 to GNOME 3.2 since KDE 4.8 was giving me a LOT of trouble with Firefox (mostly with homebrewed browser scripts for Firefox, but that's my fault. I pacman -Syu'd blindly).
Anyway, when I use GNOME Shell, all my applications are sorted by case. For example, I scroll down, and I gedit all the way at the bottom, but I see nothing between the F apps and the H apps.
In Nautilus it's even more confusing. For example, I have my xdg-user-dirs (such as Desktop, Music, etc.) but my ~/builds directory is all the way down. The same goes for ~/scripts and ~/r9k.
I've checked /etc/profile and /etc/rc.conf, but I can't find anything that would give a clue as to WHY this is happening. Here's a wgetpaste from my /etc/profile and /etc/rc.conf if that helps.
http://paste.pocoo.org/show/554087/ <- /etc/rc.conf
http://paste.pocoo.org/show/554088/ <- /etc/profile

I'm using bash too and this shell can source rc.conf just fine, it's the default shell on Arch.
We add support for /etc/locale.conf. The settings in this file takes precedence over /etc/rc.conf, and those who use shells that cannot source /etc/rc.conf are required to move to this new format.
It doesn't change anything for you and me (apart from that one-time manual intervention). You still can follow the Beginners' Guide on how to set up your locale.
Edit:
shaunsingh14 wrote:Even when I added "en-US.UTF-8" to /etc/rc.conf, locale | grep LC_COLLATE still gives the same output: "C"
rc.conf is sourced at boot.
Please follow lucke's advice, reboot and post the output of 'locale' and 'locale -a'.

Extension icons/menus are not visible even though the extensions are enabled. How to fix?

Extensions do not work as they should when enabled. They do not show up in their designated places (status bar, next to address bar, right-click menu). This applies to all extensions. I have disabled, re-enabled, and messed with the options. Nothing seems to work. Is there any way to fix this?
I have tried changing the settings in about:config, but that has no effect, either.

You can delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled extensions that are not compatible on the next start in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button to do a compatibility check.

HT4623 I recently updated to the iOS 7 on my iPhone 4. The majority of apps that I have are in a "waiting" mode now, and are not usable. How do I fix this?

I recently updated to the iOS 7 on my iPhone 4. The majority of apps say they are "waiting" are are not useable. This has been the case for three days. I have tried to turning my phone on and off, and that has not helped. I have also connected to the internet in different locations thinking that it may be the speed, but this has not helped either. How can I fix this problem?

Can you delete the apps and try re-downloading them, one at a time?

Some menus are not readable after unicode conversion

Hello Experts,
We have converted an MDMP system to unicode and when we log on to it using SAP GUI 7.10 some elements are displayed incorrectly (garbled):
- Tool Bar
- syb-menues
- selection screen texts
- table content in SE16
On PC all supplemental languages are installed, all I18n settings per SAP notes have been done but still - no success (Alt+F12, etc).
What else can be wrong?
Seems like a frontend issue, because downloading table content from SE16 to a local file and then opening it in IE using ISO encoding - works fine. I also noticed that when saving the file SAP says "
using code page 1160"
Shouldn't it be using code page 4110 - which should be autimatically assigned to SAP Gui when connected to a Unicode SAP system?

We had a likewise problem after our migration (under 4.7) and we could solve it by deleting the language load.
Note 110910 - Deleting the language load

Fly out tool menus are not working after latest update-help?!

Attempting to click/hold click is not expanding the tool fly out menus in Illustrator after the latest update. I did discover that alt + left click will rotate tools, but I would still like to be able to access the fly out menus. Any help would be appreciated!

So, it sounds like there's a compatibility problem. I didn't realize that Firefox accesses Silverlight in a whole different way. Do you think Firefox needs to be updated/patched to be able to work with the Silverlight plugin again, or does the plugin need to be updated to be compatible with the latest version of Firefox?
</blockquote>
First of all, I´m not a IT guy...just a fan of "firefox".
Regarding your question, since this issue started with the 34.0.5
version of "firefox" it´s my opinion that it´s "firefox" the one that
should be updated/patched to work again with "netflix".

[solved] Gnome 3.14.2 Modal dialogs not working

Hi,
updated today and found out that the modal password prompts in Gnome 3 do not work anymore. Does anybody know anything about this?
I´m experiencing following behaviour:
Whenever a gnome modal dialog with an input field appears the dialog will freeze after submitting the data. The only action left to click is the cancel action (or the escape key) which of course also cancels the data submission and also cancels the data submission the process.
I would love to debug this, unfortunately Google hasn´t provided anything useful yet...
Last edited by justforgetme (2015-01-10 15:21:58)

Ok, so apparently the Modal dialog not working was based on gdk-pixbuf2 dhaving wrong caches or something.
When consulting journalctl about gnome in general I discovered that my system had lost the ability to comprehend the svg format. One ddg query later i was here again just in another topic viewtopic.php?pid=1491839
