View Menu defaults

How can you make "Details" the default "View Menu" instead of "List"?

Here is a technical note from Microsoft that should help you set this How to modify your folder view settings or to customize a folder.

  • Changing View Menu default

    In PSE 9, when clicking on File/Open, the dialogue box lists the photo files in a "list" mode.  In the view menu, you can choose between thumbnail, tiles, icon, list and detail.  How does one set the default to "thumbnail" so each time that I go to File/Open, the files appear as thumbnails?  As of now, the default is "list" and I can't change the default opening menu.  Thanks!

    In Windows go to Pictures and select a folder and change to thumbnails. Then click Tools >>Folder Options.
    Click the view tab, then click the “apply to folders” button.
     

  • I am not able to view the default view of FF 4.0, It is showing menu bar with the windows border. When i turn off menu bar, the strip which should be present above the tabs goes missing.

    I have recently downloaded FF 4.0 and using a lot of add-ons. I am not able to view the default view of FF 4.0 with no menu bar. Even after turning off the menu bar from customization, I am able to see only the tabs and FF button, but not the strip over the tabs.

    When you hide the menu bar to display the Firefox button, the titlebar (strip above the tabs) is only displayed if the Firefox window is not maximized. If you always want the Window titlebar, you can use the Firefox 4 UI Fixer extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/firefox-4-ui-fixer

  • Opening windows in column view by default

    Hello all,
    I just got a new iMac 24” aluminum a few days ago and have set up all of my apps, defaults etc. I want my windows to always open in column view and have used View Options to set it that way. Each day when I start up though, the windows revert back to Icon View and I have to reset them again. On my old machine I had them opening in column view by default and they always did so. And I remember that there used to be a button at the bottom of the View Options window that, when clicked would keep whatever you set your options to as a default for all windows. That button no longer exists. Possibly somewhere in one of the updates along the way it’s been removed. Anyway, I want to set my windows to always open in column view by default and can find no way to do that anymore. Does anyone know how?
    BTW, the new alu 24" is GREAT!!
    Rick

    Then there's something wrong with you OS installation. Not really sure if there's an easy fix other than an Archive and Install. But you can try a few things first.
    1. Repair the hard drive and permissions:
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Delete the /Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist file.
    3. Create a new user account and log into that account. Does the problem cease?
    4. Boot into safe mode. Does the problem go away?
    5. Use a utility such as TinkerTool System and clean system and user caches.
    If none of these have any effect then an Archive and Install may be necessary:
    How to Perform an Archive and Install
    An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
    1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
    3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
    4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
    5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
    6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

  • [BOXI 3.0] DeskI Documents in InfoVIew - no View Menu - PDF Mode

    viewing DeskI reports in InfoView I can set my preferences for "default view format" to "Web" , "PDF" or "Desktop Intelligence format".
    If I set it to "Web" then after viewing a DeskI document if I click on the View menu I only get options for "Page Mode" and "Draft Mode" I don't get the option for "PDF mode"
    But if I log into InfoView as Administraor with FULL rights then I do get the option for "PDF Mode"
    Which security right controls the option to have "PDF Mode" on the View menu ?

    this is a bug,  you need to give rights for crystal report, like #export the report data# and #Refresh# to allow Deski Reports to be exported
    Apparently there is an Enhancement request id ADAPT01098470 with details of this Bug in

  • I upgraded from 3.6 and could not get the orange Firefox button but only a grey one with misaligned commands. When I hit View/Menu Bar even this button has vanished and the screen resembles 3.6

    I use Win7 on a desktop PC. I upgraded Firefox 3.6 to 4.0. Where there should have been the orange firefox button was a grey button 'Firefox' with a small arrow. on clicking this the commands were there, but not properly aligned. There was also no minimise/maximise/exit buttons on the top right of the screen. I checked 'Help' and found no info. I then turned on View/Menu Bar. The minimise/maximise/exit buttons appeared; the grey button vanished and the screen now resembles FF 3.6. However About tells me that I am using 4.0.
    BTW, I also tried various Beta versions in 2010 and abadnoned them because the same problem happened.

    The orange Firefox menu button will only appear if the menu bar is hidden.<br />
    Are you using a custom theme (Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes) ?
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • PanelCollection's View menu label became white after skinning

    Hi OTN,
    I have applied a custom skin to my ADF application, following official guide.
    trinidad-skins.xml:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
    <skins xmlns="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/skin">
      <skin>
        <id>SBAskin.desktop</id>
        <family>SBAskin</family>
        <extends>fusion.desktop</extends> // not extending fusionFx.desktop ?
        <render-kit-id>org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.desktop</render-kit-id>
        <style-sheet-name>css/master.css</style-sheet-name>
      </skin>
    </skins>trinidad-config.xml
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1251"?>
    <trinidad-config xmlns="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/config">
      <!--<skin-family>fusionFx</skin-family>-->
      <skin-family>SBAskin</skin-family>
    </trinidad-config>In master.css there is some slight styling of header and table rows.
    After that one of page's panelCollection's "View" menu label became white.
    A label in facet:toolbar is also white.
    To find out the cause of the problem I deleted everything from master.css. But the labels are still white.
    Here is a page structure: http://img843.imageshack.us/i/structure.png/
    Please, take a look.
    If I switch back to fusionFx family, the colors are ok.
    How can I return colors back to normal in current custom skin?
    And also, please take a look on a commented code row.
    I thought I need to extend fusionFx.desktop as soon as fusionFx is a default skin-family. But <extends>fusionFx.desktop</extends> gives nothing.
    That should I extend?
    Thanks.
    ADF 11.1.1.4
    Seems, white color comes from decorative-box with theme="dark".
    But why isn't it white with default skin family?

    Hello,

  • Jdev 11g R1: disable af:panelCollection view menu

    Hello,
    Is there any way to disable the default view menu of af:panelCollection in this new release?
    JVN

    I think we address this issue with the ER I filed. If yu don't want to hide the menu as a whole - which was my proposal - plays with skinning and you see that there is a way to hide the the column menu too. For example, the submenu is part of af|menu. Hiding af|menu hides everything, but hiding af|menu af|submenu only hides the sub menus, which there is only one. However it takes some trial and error using firebug to get to an instance specific skin that only touches the column menu you want to disable
    So as said, you have 2 options:
    - wait for the ER to be implemented (where the is no release date for yet)
    - use skinning to find a hook that hides the menu

  • View Menu of part and SWTBot

    Hi,
    I'm facing a problem with SWTBot, I don't know if I need to post it on the SWTBot forum or here.
    When I get a SWTBotView for a part and this part have a View Menu, I cannot access the content of this menu.
    I tried the following (which I found in a bug) :
    viewBot.bot().toolbarDropDownButtonWithTooltip("View Menu").menuItem(...)
    That does'nt work. More precisely, there isn't toolbar in my part.
    So I tried to get the menu via application model but then, the menu is not yet rendered so the call :
    viewBot.getPart().getMenus().get(0).getWidget return null.
    So is there a method for getting this type of elements ?

    Yeah that did it.  It's funny, but I know the first thing I did when I installed the program was enable all of the advanced preferences.  Do they return to default with updates?

  • Can new PWA views be created whereby a filter can be set and associate to the view by default? (Project Server 2013 ONLINE)

    My main question is: Can new PWA views be created whereby a filter for that view can be set, and associate to the view by default? (Project Server 2013 ONLINE)? and can I have a filter set to filter on person logged on to...
    In previous versions of Project Server, when CREATING a PWA view, we were able to apply/ define a filter for that view.  Does not seem like it is the case in Project Server 2013 Online.  And if I remember, we could also use the URL Guid_view_id. 
    Please confirm; and / or tell me how-to.
    What I was hoping to do is the following... Given that our standard that we have adopted for reporting time is 'My Timesheets' (fyi, Single Mode Entry=ON), we have some resources who have others who do it on their behalf via 'My Tasks' (ie., accomplished
    by using the 'Assignment Owner' field, accordingly).  Therefore, when entering time on someone else's behalf within 'My Tasks', we like to present the user that is logged in only the tasks that they are are assigned to update on others' behlaf.
    I know that there is another more elegant approach to doing this which may be to use the Delegation feature. But since we are trying to stick to Sharepoint Security mode for now, this is not an option for the time being.
    Any help appreciated would be greatly appreciated.
    \Spiro Theopoulos PMP, MCITP. Montreal, QC (Canada)

    Hi Spiro,
    1- You still can define in Project Online a filter in the view settings, it is located just above the category setting. Here is a screenshot of the summary project center view:
    2- The view GUID is not anymore in the URL, since the URL triggers an action only on the webpart and not on the whole page. I agree this is annoying since it was great to send a URL with a specific view.
    3- Concerning the access to my timesheet versus my task, I'm not sure to get a full understanding but on a general way, it is much more easy to deal with those situation using categories which you cannot do with the SP permission mode.
    Hope this helps,

  • Can you view text outside of the canvas? as with the view menu you can see animation paths, bounding boxes and handles??? many thanks

    re: Motion 5
    can you view text outside of the canvas? as when using the view menu you can see animation paths, bounding boxes and handles???
    I'm in the middle of a text animation design treatment and unless my memory is completely failing I thought this was an option.
    An example would be selecting all layers and being able to see all bounding boxes and animation paths while moving along the timeline.
    Of course this could be quite a mess if you couldn't selectively chose which layers, its just with this current project it would be so helpful if
    I could see the text beyond the canvas to aid in my animations.
    many thanks,

    thanks for both of your responses
    I do understand shift + v " to "Show Full View Area" and shift + z to fill screen, etc.
    and command + & - for zooming
    what I'd like to do is selectively view, say, the text outside of the canvas as you can see the bounding box
    which contains the text or object when selecting one or all layers in the layers column
    I haven't used this feature in a while though I do recall using it in the past.
    Any help would greatly appreciated
    thanks,

  • How can I get Thumbnails back in the file View Menu?

    My computer died and I had to re-install CS6.  I had originally installed it to an external hard drive expecting that I could just hook up a new computer when the time came and everything would work as before.   Not to be.   I contacted Adobe and got the program re-installed.  Now, when I open a file, I am unable to change the view in the View Menu to 'thumbnail' because 'thumbnail' is no longer an option.  How can I get that option back?
    Thank you.

    Are you talking about in the File>Open dialog in photoshop cs6?
    Could you post screenshot of what you see?
    Windows 7 doesn't have a thumbnail option as windows xp, but you should be able to at least see the jpeg thumbnails without any third party programs.
    If you pick Tiles or one of the three Icon options at the top, your not able to see the jpeg thumbnails?
