[SOLVED] White boxes around desktop shortcuts

Cosmetics question: I'm using Gnome 3 fallback mode, and all the shortcuts that I put on the Desktop have white outlines around them.
I'd like to have just the plain icons. How do I get rid of the white outlines? I've spend quite some time searching for an answer but can't find anything relevant.
Thanks in advance!

Here's what I did (in case you're not familiar with installing packages that you downloaded):
> wget figue.lnx.im/nautilus-3.6.3-1.src.tar.gz
> tar xvf nautilus-3.6.3-1.src.tar.gz
> cd nautilus
> makepkg
> pacman -U nautilus-3.6.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

Help! When in "graphic watermark" setting, how do I remove white box around my watermark? Already saved in PNG

I'm trying to upload a saved graphic watermark to my photos in Lightroom 4 but no matter what I do, I can't get the white box around the watermark to go away. I've already tried saving the watermark file in PNG like other sites suggested but it does no good. Other sites tell me I need to save the watermark in another version of adobe and check the box "transparent" but Lightroom is the only version of adobe I have. Any help ASAP would be greatly appreciated!!!

I have also been trying to solve the same problem. Where does one take an already created watermark and make it transparent? I have Photoshop on my old Mac and e-mailed my solid white background watermark to myself, opened it in Photoshop and "erased" the white background. Transfered it back to my Lightroom on my MacBookPro and exported the test photo w/ the "erased" background watermark. I had no idea if it would work….it did not. OR : How does one create a transparent watermark? I have a graphic I want to use w/ my name. Please HELP!!!

White box around text in pdf

Hi. In InDesign CS3, Photoshop 7.0 & of course Acrobat 7.0
I made a Photoshop PDF & brought it into InDesign to export it into a PDF so I can make crop marks.
The PDF in Acrobat & InDesign both had a white box around some of the text. I had embedded the fonts in Photoshop, so I do not understand why that happened. I went back into Photoshop & just retyped over where the box was appearing & this had solved the problem after I repdfed & imported it into ID. Acrobat viewed the text perfect then.
I want to prevent this from happening in the future, does anyone know what I can do to look out for things like this?

Very sorry--that's certainly information I should have included. I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard, version 9.3.3. I'm creating the PDFs from within Microsoft Word 2007 via the Acrobat tab on the ribbon, clicking "Create PDF."

White boxes around images

Hi, I know this is a basic question but it's causing me a lot
of grief.
When I place images on coloured backgrounds, they have white
boxes
around them. Is the only way to get around this to manipulate
the
image itself in photoshop? I've tried this but it still
doesn't look
right - there are jagged edges. Or I've tried giving the
image the
same colour background in photoshop so it blends, but there
is a white
edge. How do others handle this? Some expert advice would
really be
great to have.

If you are seeing white borders against colored backgrounds,
then this means
that the white is part of the image. There would be no way to
remove that
short of editing the image in your image editing program.

White box around png images in Final Cut Express 4.0

I was putting in some muzzle flashes into my video with final cut express 4.0, they were png images and there was a white box around the muzzle flash after i used the composite mode screen effect, if anybody knows what the problem is i could use the help.

I inserted a 3D bullet into my movie and it had a black background. I used Composite Screen and it it worked, but it made the bullet slightly transparent. What should I do?

How do I get rid of faint white boxes around images?

Some files that I have printed have faint white boxes around images. The images were saved in photoshop with transparent backgrounds that seem to be showing up faintly in the final printed image. Does anyone know how I can get rid of this problem?

signspec,
What happens if you print from Illy?
Your printer (driver) may be overly helpful and performs a bit of colour management all by itself. You may have a look and disable any such management in the printer (driver) options.

Getting white boxes around images.. help!

I dont know whats going on. I havent used Dreamweaver in a
while and am having an odd issue.
Located here: www.gwoodsconst.com
I am getting white boxes around the images. Not sure what the
issues. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Your image contains the white box, not your HTML. If you
created it in a graphics program like Illustrator or Corel, the
anti-aliasing setting at export put a thin blur around the edges to
visually smooth the image
Crop the image by one or two pixels then reset your sizes so
it’s not distorted.
That will fix it.

Error in printing? White boxes around text?

Right now I'm experencing a problem with printing in
Flashpaper. In my company we're converting brochures over into
Flashpaper as a test. Everything converts over smoothly until we do
a print test. What we're seeing in our print outputs is any area
that contains text on top of a image you'll get an white box around
the text. Although when you view the flashpaper on the monitor you
don't see that white box around the text. It appears that during
print process the text fields retain a white box and doesn't set it
to be transparent.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? And is there a way
around this?

HI
Did you ever get any clue about this issue? I have the same
problem or worse.

White box around image in my transparent .swf file

I created a .swf file for a header of a website using a logo that tweens in. I tested the .swf with the transparent properties and it works but the logo I imported from photoshop has a white box around it, how can I remove this? Do I need to import a transparent .png file instead of a .jpg?
Thanks!

.png's are lossless vector graphics, so it's probably best bet if your going to do other things with the logo. .jpg's are not fond of resizing. You can also break the image apart and use the lasso tool and magic wand the background away.

I cannot open any apps or enter my passcode, there is a white box around everything I touch. HELP!n

Why is there a white box around everything I touch with no response at all?

You have Voice Over turned on. Once you tap the item and see the box, tap it two more times to activate the selection.
Then go to Settings>General>Accessibility>Voice Over, and turn it off. Remember, 3 taps per selection until you have turned it off.

White boxes around PDF files imported to Indesign

I'm trying to create a portfolio of Ads that I've done in the past. I exported them as a PDF and then importing them back into InDesign to fit in a certain picture frame. The problem is that when I import them back to InDesign and then export them as PDF again, some of the original imported images (in the ad) have like a white low opacity box around them. Some of them also have a white strip over the entire ad. These are not visible on screen in InDesign, or on PDF. They're only showing on the final product after print.
I have to point out that all of these ads were printed before and they were just fine. Does this problem sound familiar in InDesign? Is there a solution?

BTW, don't use OSX's preview to look at PDFs created by InDesign if they take advantage of high end features such as live transparency.
Preview simply isn't up to the task and you should be using Acrobat or Reader.

White box around text in Windows-based PDFs viewed on Mac

I make a lot of Microsoft Word-based PDFs that include colored, text-filled tables. They look great when viewed on my machine, but Mac users see a faint white outline around the text in each cell of the table. How do I get rid of the white box?

Very sorry--that's certainly information I should have included. I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard, version 9.3.3. I'm creating the PDFs from within Microsoft Word 2007 via the Acrobat tab on the ribbon, clicking "Create PDF."

How do you remove white box around a logo?

I own the Adobe CS5 suite, but I'm still new to these programs and don't know a lot about image editing and website creation.
I'm making a website for my boss, and because I don't know how to use Dreamweaver yet, I've been using an awful software program called "Website Tonight," which is very basic and limited, but pretty self explanatory.
Originally, when I tried to insert the company's logo onto the website, there was a white box showing up around the logo. I tried several things to cut the white parts out, and it looked like it worked in photoshop, but the box continued to show up on the website.
Eventally I decided to try to fill in the white parts with the blue background color of the website so it would blend in, and I was successful at this. However, somehow, for some reason, even though this box is the exact color of the background, the top right corner and right side of the box surrounding the logo can be seen on the website. The box isn't visible on the other sides. From what I can tell, there is no shadow selected when I have this image in photoshop, but maybe I'm not looking in the right place.
I've looked for solutions online and haven't been able to find any that work. The logo isn't a link on the website, so it isn't related to that. I don't know if this is something that can be fixed in photoshop, or if it's css related, or what. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Here's a picture I took of the computer screen that shows how the logo is appearing. I filled the white box in with the blue background color of the website hoping to make it blend in, but the box is still visible in the upper right corner and around the middle of the letter C, but not visible in the lower right corner or any other part of the box I filled in. The color in this area is appearing slightly darker than the background, making the boxe's outline visible on the right. The fill color is the exact color of the background and the rest of the areas of the box I filled in. I've tried saving this as a png file and as a jpg.
