Straight black line with no gray shade

Greetings,
Each time a make a 6px black horizontal line I notice that there is a gray "shadow" on top and below the black "core", how do I remove this gray component.
Also, I noticed that this line has square ends. Is there a way to make them rounded?
I'm using CS5 for mac.
Thanks in advance.
Best, 

Which tool are you using to draw the line? You are seeing the antialiasing. A nice hard line can be obtained by stroking a path with the Pencil tool, but rounded ends would have the jaggies that way.

  • I did a hard reset on my iphone 5.  When it was resetting  black lines with text saying there were errors popped up at the top of the screen. any ideas??

    I did a hard reset on my Iphone 5,  when it was resetting black lines with white text popped up at the top of the screen.  Last line says _fetchBorrowedList:881 number of borrowed blocks 16.  It is stuck at this point and will do nothing.  Tried another hard reset and the same thing happened.  Any Ideas??

    Make an appointment at the genius bar and get the screen replaced if that's available in your area ($149) or get the phone replaced if it's not or if the damage is more extensive ($269).

  • Vertical black line with shade dots down left side of page - NEW Cartridge

    I installed a NEW cartridge and was able to print about 30 pages before the paper began having a 1/16" black stripe with shade(?) dots down the left side.  Could someone please advise.
    Thank you,
    Erin

    Thanks.
    I am very new to Pages. Yesterday I decided to go after a "Brochure" template, as it already had at least one vertical line separating text passages on the left and right. But there were too many sections, so I went about deleting all the extraneous, unwanted lines. And also the unwanted horizontal lines. To do this, you have to click the line itself to discover where the "nodes" are. But the nodes are locked, so you have to go to the top control bar of the desktop. (I think that this is the option titled "arrange").
    It appears that the secret to tinkering with the lines in the templates, is by unlocking the nodes to the lines, dragging them around, and then locking them in place again, saving them between major changes. In any case, none of this is going to be intuitive to users who come to the Mac from a text based 'DOS' universe. (I have absolutely no experience with Microsoft products, and would be lost if somebody asked me to do this from Windows.)
    Now, I think I am going in the right direction, and I appreciate your help, but I'm still having a little difficulty switching back and forth from editing templates, and typing text in. What are the sequences of keypresses for going back and forth from editing the templates, and typing the text in?

  • I have small black lines that appeared after I exported from word to PDF. I can't remove them.

    I can't edit/delete the black lines with content editing or form editing (they are not selectable, just like a line that was created in word prior to export), and when I tried to write a white line over it with a comment mark up, it does not show when opened with adobe.
    Further, redaction with a white box erased nearby text or text boxes.
    How can I white out/remove these small lines?
    I'm using Yosemite OS X with a macbook pro, acrobat XI.
    Thanks!

    Hi ,
    Could you please tell is that some specific file in which those black lines have appeared or are there any other files as well ?
    You can try exporting another test file to PDF and compare the results .
    Will it be possible for you to share the file with us so that we can analyze at our end ?If yes ,please share it on [email protected] .
    You could also send us the screen shot of the files ( both after and before export) so that we can have a look how it looks and what is the method to remove those lines.

  • Every once in a while when I open my mail or a page I get nothing but strange lines of symbols.  Many of the symbols are black triangles with question marks in the center.  I completely reset it like new, but problem still exists

    Every once in a while when I open my mail or open a page I get lines of strange symbols like black triangles with question marks in the center.  I have reset the ipad2 to new condition but the problem still exists.

    A reset does not make tthe iPad "like new."
    First, let's ensure that we agree on just what is a Reset...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • I repaired a cracked iphone 5c screen now I have a black screen with a vertical blue line on the left hand side of the screen. please help!!

    Hi all,
    Please help, I repaired an iphone 5c and have now tried two different lcd screens on it but all I get is a black screen or a black screen with a vertical blue line on the left hand side of the screen. I definitely have the cables connected properly etc and before I repaired it the phone had a cracked screen and there was a picture on it.
    I have tried hard reset and nothing. I have tried connecting to iTunes but it asks me to confirm on the iPhone which I can't do as there is nothing on the display.  I have tried randomly pressing all over the screen but it doesn't work. So I can't even try restoring it on iTunes.
    Please help any advice will be appreciated! I successfully have repaired iphone 4's and iphone 5 before but this is the first iphone 5c.
    Thanks.

  • Black screen with white flashing line on startup

    ~computer info~
    Mac OS X Version 10.6.7
    2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    4GB 1067 MHz DDR3

    ~issue~
    Hello; I've recently encountered a problem with bootcamp that I can't find a solution to... Every time I start up the computer in boot camp, all I get is that black screen with the white flashing line. It comes up, goes to a plain black screen, then quickly comes up again. It never stops, either. I've let it run, and it won't finish.
    I've had the partition for MONTHS now, and nothing like this has happened. I've had it since I upgraded to Snow Leopard awhile back, and needed to re-partition the drive. I literally had been using it the day before it happened, and the only thing that happened was that I got that "Windows Security 2011" malware, but I got rid of it fully (As I've gotten it 3 times this month). The other two times I got it, it didn't do anything. I fixed it, and went on with life. But is it possible that it broke something in the partitions inner files this time?
    I ran disk utility, and it said the partition was broken. After verifying it and confirming this, I did "Repair Drive", as it allowed me to. It finished with no errors and said it completed, so I tried to go back into the partition, but it gave me the same results.
    To be honest, most of my stuff is on my External Harddrive, so re-doing the partition is only going to be time used to me. But I still DO have things on there, and it'd be a pain to transfer them back and forth between the Mac and Windows partitions... I'd really like to know if there's anyway to fix this, or if it's just going to fall back to me re-partitioning the drive...
    Thanks for the help in advance.

    That blinking line is a "cursor."  It's only supposed to show for a second or two as your iMac switches to and then starts Windows.  But as you indicate here, it's not getting past the cursor..
    Disk Utility can repair FAT volumes, but it cannot correct issues caused by corrupted items which, if the volume was repaired, there may be some.
    Since we are dealing with a Windows boot partition, it's entirely possible that the repairs inadvertently corrupted the data Windows needs to start and run.  It's also posible that Mac OS, in fixing the Boot Camp volume, overwrote the existing boot record in the Windows partition with a generic, though non-bootable version.
    Windows' own CHKDSK should have been used to make the repairs rather than the OS X Disk Utility, which would have avoided this worst-case scenario in data recovery.  CHKDSK has a special version of itself on the Windows disc, which may be accesed by using the Windiws Recovery Consile upon pressing R during the "Welcome to Setup" screen.
    Though it appears ftom my position here that you will need to reinstall XP, it may yet be possible to recover data that hasn't been copied to the external HDD.  For this task, I'd like to recommend that you start up in Mac OS for the time being, and pull any new or changed items from the Boot Camp volume except for installed software; the latter are nearly impossible to transport with reasonable accuracy, and should instead be reinstalled.
    Once you have what you need, format your Boot Camp volume and reinstall Windows, this time selecting NTFS as your filesystem.  NTFS is the preferred option for Windows in general, thiaks to its innate file access controls as well as the ability to compress or encrypt data "on the fly."  NTFS can be read by Mac OS X, but not written from it, thus NTFS volumes cannot be altered except by Windows itself..  But it is also a requirement if you plan to upgrade your unit using Windows 7 in future.

  • I have a HP Officejet Pro 8500A with black line problems

    My HP Officejet Pro 8500A has a problem when documents are placed on the automatic feed.  The printed document comes out with a black line down the middle of the new printed document.  Today it has started putting black lines down my printed pictures that come from my computer.  The computer is less than one month old.  HELP!!!

    This model has separate ink supplies and printheads.  Ink is required in all the colors to keep the printheads and plumbing from clogging.  See this page for information on how ink is used.

  • My iMac won't boot, get a black screen with alarm sound, then gray screen with start up sound, then repeats

    this problem started last fall after upgrading to Mavericks. If I shut down my computer (or restart) I have problems getting it going again. This is getting progressively worse. I hadn't shut down in over a month, forgot about this issue and shut down (which I used to do daily), so now I can't get my computer to boot. When I hit the power button I hear it starting, then a loud alarm sounds, then a long pause then start up sound with a gray screen with a progress bar. Once the progress bar fills, the screen goes black again for a bit. This whole process will repeat until I get frustrated and force - shut down by holding the power button. I have tried reseting the pram, starting up in safe mode, starting up with the command - R, starting up with my original install disc... none of it works. I'm at a loss! I do have an external hard drive that I have been using for Time Machine, but it's not recent because the disc needs repairs and I hadn't gotten around to buying a new HD to back up to first. Has anyone else had this problem? I really can't afford a big repair/replacement bill.

    A long, steady, load tone followed by a progress bar can indicate it is trying to install a Firmware Update.  Any other Tones would be multiple beeps and show an error code.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5860
    You can also see a progress bar similar to booting into Safe Mode. However, the firmware update bar is thinner vertically than the Safe Mode bar.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1455
    Either way, I would say something is wrong and it would be better evaluated at an Apple Store as Kappy points out.

  • Black screen with white line

    I have a late 2009 Macbook.  Ocasionally when i open it up, i get a black screen with a bright white line at the bottom of the monitor.  Rebooting and closing the laptop doesn't change anything.  I can connect it to an external display and the display appears pefectly on the other screen, while the mac remains black with a white line at the bottom.  If i take off the bottom cover plate, and touch a new random things, the screen will return to normal, but flicker initially. This has now happened 3 times, and i can't seem to make any sense of it.  After reading online i can't see to find any problems on this MC207ll/a macbook.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You obviously broke the screen when the phone was dropped.  Apple doesn't repair the screen on an iPhone 4; it will replace the phone for $149.
