Trouble keeping page set up as desired when viewing in preview browser?

Why is it when I have my site the way I want it in design mode and I then go to view it in preview or preview browser does everything on the page get messed up?

Jim,
I think you have objects with fixed positions. Can it be that this objects cause the problems? Their potitions are not affected by the margin settings. You have to place them by hand.
If you don't have, turn the layout markers on by selecting the menu item "Darstellung/Layout einblenden". Now you can see a gray frame at the borders of your page. Inside of this gray frame is the printable area (set by the rules of "Papierformat..."). The margins of the document (set in the document inspector) are displayed by the left border of the left colum, by the right border of the right column and by all top and bottom borders of all three columns. This is the text area where the "floating text" may be inserted.
Can you see some overlapping of the thick gray frame at the page borders and of the thin column frames? If yes, you should tweek the settings for the "Papierformat..." and the margin settings in the document inspector until there is no overlapping anymore.
But for today I am ready with my work. It's time to have a break.
Frank.

PDF export from Pages results in jagged fonts when viewed in Preview

Hi There,
Since installing 10.5.5 I get the following strange behavior: When exporting a file in PDF from Pages certain fonts (such as Palatino) are not shown antialiased anymore when viewed in any Apple software (Preview/Safari). When viewed in Adobe Reader, the fonts appear smooth.
The strange thing is that, when I view PDF files generated last year before updating to 10.5.5 they still show with antialiased (i.e. smooth) fonts in the current Preview/Safari.
It gets even stranger: When exporting the files as .doc into (the resented and ridiculously slow and memory gulping) Word 2008, and then converting them into PDF via the Print command, this phenomenon does not occur, i.e. the fonts look smooth in Preview/Safari.
I would appreciate if anyone had some constructive input to this problem. I would really like to be able avoiding using Word!
Thanks much in advance!

I had the exact same problem that you were describing. I'd create a document in Pages '08, then export it to PDF and I'd find that the text wouldn't be anti-aliased in the PDF.
I was using one of the resumé templates that comes with Pages '08. The template by default sets the font size very low in certain areas of the page, as low a 7. I went through my document and bumped up font sizes that were below 9 and set them to 9. Now when I export to PDF the text looks great.
It was far from obvious to me that the font sizes were linked to the anti-aliasing in my exported PDFs.

I am having trouble keeping the quality of my video when exporting to my external drive. I change the kind to "original" but when I view the video from the external drive once exported, the sound and picture are distorted.

I am having trouble keeping the quality of my video when exporting to my external hard drive. I have tried to export from iphoto with changing kind to "original" but when I open the video from the external drive the quality is effected. I have also tried copying the video to my desktop and then dragging and dropping onto the drive...same problem. Any suggestions? I would like to save everything to my external drive so that I can delete all of iphoto library and then reimport to correct a few things.

The file sizes are identical. In the finder I did a search for all .mov files. Then when they came up, I went through them and named each one so that they would be easier to find. I am a new mac user and am used to windows. I realized later that I should not have done this....with a mac files should be named within iphoto app...not finder....When I went to open the videos in iphoto, it wouldn't allow me. I had to go into finder, copy to desktop and reimport into iphoto. Then the videos worked again. However, I had the problem with the poor video quality when copied to external drive before that. Actually the first problem I had was when I copied to ext drive...videos were copying as an image...so I learned that you have to change "kind" to original before exporting....then that problem was solved...now they are videos, not images but not of a great quality. Skips, sound and images are not in sync...etc...

I have my home page set to google. When I open a new tab I want it to also open as google instead of tabbed browsing. Would you please email me how to do this, please? Thank you!

LR4 export to JPG the colour washes out when viewed in Preview

Specs:
LR4 4.2 with ACR 7.2
Mac OSX 10.8.2
Nikon D600 NEF (Raw) files
This problem has occured everytime I use LR4 and I've tried exporting to different colour space - sRGB, AdobeRGB with the same result. This is using my new Nikon D600, when I export a photo processed in LR4 and shot from my old Canon 400D the colours are almost identical when viewed in Preview with just the usual loss you would expect converting to sRGB.
Is anyone else experiencing this and/or know of a solution?
I hope this is an issue that is being worked on for the update that will fully support the D600.
Cheers
E

Mojo,
The problems which you are getting with Lightroom & your cameras D600 & 40D is not clear by the way you have tried to explained.
Can you please elaborate on the problem you have with some screenshots.

How can I remove the thin black border of Flash movie when viewed in a browser?

There is a thin border at the top and left margins of my Flash movie when the .html is viewed in a browser. How can it be removed?
Here's the movie.
One solution suggests replacing some code, but the code they suggest replacing doesn't even exist in my html file.
I have found questions similar to mine being asked all over different forums, but their solutions either don't work, or like the above, don't really apply. For such a common problem, finding the solution is getting a little frustrating.
I'm using Flash CS3 on a Windows PC rrunning XP professional.

Okay, I found the answer. It turns out that when I made the buttons in Flash (so the movie would have clickable links), the default stroke color was set to black. Change it to white and the outline is gone.
As for appearing only on the top and left of the movie - for some reason the bottom and right is being cropped a bit when it's placed in to the html page. But that's a topic for a different discussion.

Marking "Read" When Viewing in Preview Pane

Hi,
Just upgraded to Leopard... I'm trying to find a way to set Mail so that when you just scroll through the email message list and are viewing in the Preview Pane it doesn't automatically mark the message as "Read". I don't want it to show "Read" unless I actually OPEN the message... Is there a way to do this?!
Thanks!

I'm disappointed that Mail on the mac has not added options to control Marking as Read When Viewing in the Preview Pane. I'm using Mail 3.6 (latest as of July 2009) on 10.5.7, and this is still not supported. I have just finished switching to a new mac from a PowerBook G4 867 which I purchased in 2002, and I moved Entourage v.X (not even 2004 or 2008) app and mailboxes over to my new macbook pro. Then I used Mail 3.6 to Import Mailboxes from Entourage. I also imported contacts to Address Book and calendar items to iCal, etc. Finally I can leave Entourage behind --> Not necessarily.
Entourage v.X and Windows Outlook have had this feature for at least five years. Why has this feature been skipped in Mail all this time?
Previewing a message is not the same as Reading the message. Situation one: I like to use the up/down arrows to scroll quickly through messages, and consider which are the most important. Oops, now they're all marked Read! Situation two: Occasionally I click on the wrong message. Oops - it's marked Read now.
Simplest solution: Provide an on/off control: Mark Previewed Messages as Read - on or off
Richer solution: Provide timer control: Mark Previewed Messages as Read After 'n' seconds: - <n>
At least give us the Simpler boolean solution.
I found several threads on the same topic marked as Answered/Resolved. The workaround of getting rid of the preview pane is a poor workaround compared to what has been requested though it seems to be all we have so far. Admins should close the dangling threads only after posting a note indicating why.
TruePreview was proposed as a solution in one of the threads, but I have not tried that. If others have tried and are happy with it, please let me know.
Thanks...Alan

Lower quality when viewing in Preview

I have this issue on a BP with 10.5.4 and also a G4 with 10.4.11., and that is that images in Preview are not the same as viewed in any other app, which all look the same. I'm not talking about the look of colors or symptoms of having mismatched profiles, because the colors and shades are the same. But there's a subtle, though definite, slightly lower quality look when using Preview. I've been through the limited preference options and nothing makes it right.
It's almost as if there's a very slight noise, or unsharp mask artifact, or resolution mismatch (toggling the "respect DPI doesn't make it disappear) though it doesn't appear it other apps.
What's the deal? : )
Thanks.

Pb with timeline-integrated MP3 when viewing from a browser

Hi,
I have an anim called interface.swf which is loading an intro
called intro.swf.
That intro is infact a compositing anim whose timeline
wontains some MP3 sounds overlapping one another and beginning at
different times.
All is working fine when I run my interface.swf file in a
standalone flash player or directly from flash, BUT when launching
it in a web browser (Firefox or IE), one and only one MP3 sound
(each time the same sound), is beginning at the beginning of my
intro anim instead of the frame it is assigned to in my timeline.
It looks as if that very MP3 sound doesn't care about the frame at
which it begins.
It is really strange and it occurs only when viewing it in a
browser (on a server or in local).
Has such a problem already been noticed? It is very strange
Is there any explananation?
Thanks

hi Ned,
I currently downloading the tutorial link you posted.
Do you have any idea what is really happening? Because I really wanted to have a loading text only before the whole site is loaded. The SIMULATED DOWNLOAD in Flash CS4 is working great but whenever copy it in my hosting server and view it in my browser the preloader is not working.
Thank you for your immediate response.

YSONG

Preloader not working in AS3 when viewing in a browser

Hi there, It's me again Ysong.
I have a problem regarding PRELOADING.
MY TIMELINE:
• First frame -- dynamic text which is my preloader with AS3 in it. NO MORE OBJECT in the frame only text which is dynamic.
     stop();
     loaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, updatePreloader);
     function updatePreloader(evtObj:ProgressEvent):void
          var percent:Number = Math.floor((evtObj.bytesLoaded*100)/evtObj.bytesTotal);
          myLoadText.text = "Loading..." + percent+"%";
          if (percent==100){
                    nextFrame();
• Second frame -- the whole site in MOVIE CLIP which will be loaded after the preloading ends.
***The whole SWF file is only 600KB when publishing.
***When simulating download the preloader is working.
MY PROBLEM:
Whenever I uploaded these two files: (1) index.swf and (2) index.html, the preloader doesn't work. When viewed in browser it apprears to be white screen. After a couple of minutes, the index.swf appears and the preloader is not appearing as it should be. With (2), I didn't change anything on Dreamweaver just upload the file published by Flash Professional CS4.
WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? Can anyone help me with this. I've uploaded (PUT) the files through Dreamweaver with a testing server configured.
Thank you & Regards,
YSONG

Trouble Keeping Merged and Unmerged Rows Grouped when Filtering

Hi-
In my screen shot below, I wish to keep the unmerged cells in columns F-I grouped with the merged cells in columns B-E and J-L when filtering. Essentially, I would like for everything in Example 1 to stick together, and everything in Example 2, and so on
and so forth. Currently, when I filter by any of the given fields, only the first row of the unmerged cells filters with it (in this example, rows #4 and #12). Is there a way to have all of these rows stay static with the merged cells? Please note that I wish
for this spreadsheet to be dynamic in that you can filter by any of the given fields, not just Field #1.
Thanks!
Lindsay

When you merge multiple cells, only the upper-left cell has content, the content of other cells are blank. So in your case, when you filter these fields ,only the first row will appear. And we can't change this, it is just a built-in feature of excel.
There are some workarounds you can have a try:
1. Add the help columns ,if you want to filter all of these fields, you may need to add multiple help columns. Then filter by these help columns.
2. Fill these merged cells with colors ,then filter by the specific color.
3. Create a PivotTable ,and then filter inside the pivotTable.

I have my home page set up fine, but when i open a new tab it loads "delta serach" instead of the old layout of my most visited pages.

something has reset my new tab page to delta search, i want the original layout back with the page thumbnails of most visited pages that i had before. please help. very annoyed at delta for taking liberties in my browser settings.

Type about:config in URL
*Search browser.startup.homepage and change the value to google.com
*Search browser.newtab.url and change the value to about:newtab
*Uninstall the delta search from Extension/Toolbar
In order to uninstall a possibly unwanted extension, please do the following:
#From the Firefox window click the Firefox button at the top left and select ''Add-ons'', or, if the Firefox button is not shown, click the ''Tools'' menu and click ''Add-ons''.
#Once the Add-on Manager has opened in a new tab, click the ''Extensions'' button on the left side of the window.
#You should now see a list of your installed extensions on the right side together with buttons on the right side of each extension.
#To remove an extension from Firefox, simply click the ''Remove'' button. You should see a message that informs you about the successful removal of the add-on.
#Note that some add-ons require a Firefox restart to be removed completely. To perform a Firefox restart after the add-on removal, click the ''Restart now'' link in the message.

How to set "Files of type" when using a "File Browse" item.

Apex 4.0.2
Internet Explorer 7 +
I have a "File Browse" item on a page and need to limit the types of files display to just "text (.txt)" files. How can this be done? Currently, the "Files of type" list shows "All File (*.*)", "Pictures (*.gif,*.png)", and HTML (*.htm,*.html)". In the best case, I would like to not have the "Files of type" list and have the user just limited to text files. However, adding Text files (*.txt)" to the "Files of type" list is ok.
thanks,
William

Thought i'd do a bit of research after seeing Scotts wonderful ideas.
So it turns out, IE made the file item read only from version 8, for security reasons. Read more: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2008/07/02/ie8-security-part-v-comprehensive-protection.aspx
File Upload Control
Historically, the HTML File Upload Control (<input type=file>) has been the source of a significant number of information disclosure vulnerabilities. To resolve these issues, two changes were made to the behavior of the control.
To block attacks that rely on “stealing” keystrokes to surreptitiously trick the user into typing a local file path into the control, the File Path edit box is now read-only. The user must explicitly select a file for upload using the File Browse dialog.
Additionally, the “Include local directory path when uploading files” URLAction has been set to "Disable" for the Internet Zone. This change prevents leakage of potentially sensitive local file-system information to the Internet. For instance, rather than submitting the full path C:\users\ericlaw\documents\secret\image.png, Internet Explorer 8 will now submit only the filename image.png.To resetting the actual items, suggestions I found were to replace the actual item. So instead of using $s, I just replace the element, with the existing element, causing it to re-initialise.
var htmldb_delete_message='"DELETE_CONFIRM_MSG"';
function fileCheck(el){
 if(el.value){
 var validFile = false;
 var validExtensions = ["csv"];
 var filename = el.value;
 var fileExtIndex = filename.lastIndexOf(".");
 var fileExt = filename.substring(fileExtIndex+1, filename.length);
 for(i = 0; i < validExtensions.length; i++){
 if(validExtensions[i] == fileExt){
 validFile = true;
 break;
 if ( !validFile || fileExtIndex == -1) {
 alert("Invalid Extension. Permitted files must end with: " + validExtensions.toString());
 var htmlContents = el.outerHTML || new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(el);
 $('#P16_BINARY').replaceWith(htmlContents);
}(obviously, replacing what you need to, to suit your page - i prefer scotts idea of passing in supported file types in the function, so would just pass in an array instead; but this is just for demonstration)
with an onchange="checkFile(this)" on the element attributes.
On a slightly un-related note, I found out IE doesn't support the wonderful indexOf function on arrays, that checks for the existence of the value in an array. Sucks.

Ah well, jQuery is there, maybe i should use that for searching arrays in the future.

With Firefox as my default browser, links in E-mails or E-mail web pages will not open. When IE is default browser, links open fine, SUP???

I have Windows 7. This problem happened all of a sudden, possibly after a Firefox update??

'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in Safe Mode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
