What does mean when the "meatball" is gray?

CS4 on a Mac.
What is Illustrator trying to tell me when the circle on the right side of a path description inside the layers panel is filled with gray?
I'm sure the circle has a name - I called it "meatball" in the headline becasue I recall that one of the instructors on Lynda.com referred to it that way.

It's the target symbol. The trainer should have told you that it's related to appearances. It tells you that there are special appearances applied (e.g. an effect or a second fill or stroke). Click on the target symbol and then open the appearance panel to inspect the appearances.

    what does mean when a imac screen goes all white

    Hopefully its not the logic board. try a PRAM reset: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    basically hold cmd, option, P, and R directly after start. Keep holding them down until you hear two chimes. That indicates a successful PRAM reset. It is not uncommon to hear 3.
    If that doesnt work try an SMC reset. Pull out the power cord from the back of the mac for atleast 15 seconds. plug it in again for 5 seconds and power back on ...http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

  • What does "/"  "\" mean when using it on the Timeline?

    Learning Adobe premier pro classroom CC

    The "\" key zooms into the timeline. So if you can't see all of your clips because you are zoomed in too far, the "\" will set your view to fit to the visible area of the timeline.
    The "/" key marks the selection.
    In the future, the best way to get that information is to go into the Edit menu, select Keyboard Shortcuts, and type in the keys you want to know more about. It will show you what action is related to the key you enter and if no action aqppears then you know that key or key combination is available for you to assign to something.

  • What does a file folder with a question mark in it mean when the computer won't start?

    What does a file folder with a question mark in it mean when the computer won't start?

    There are four general causes of this issue:
    1. The computer's PRAM no longer contains a valid startup disk setting when there aren't any problems with the disk itself. This can be checked for by pressing the Option key and seeing if the drive appears.
    2. The internal drive's directory structure has become damaged. This requires usage of an alternate bootable system to perform the repair.
    3. Critical system files have been deleted. This requires usage of an alternate bootable system to reinstall them.
    4. The internal drive has died or become unplugged. This is the most likely case if the computer took a sharp impact or there are unusual sounds coming from the hard drive's location.

  • What does it mean when the usecounts of Parse Tree for a view is incrementing when a select query is issued against the view?

    I'm using SQL Server 2008 R2 (10.50.4033) and I'm troubleshooting an issue that a select query against a specific view is taking more than 30 seconds consistently.   The issue just starts happening this week and there is no mass changes in data.  
    The problem only occur if the query is issued from an IIS application but not from SSMS.  One thing I noticed is that sys.dm_exec_cached_plans is returning 2 Parse Tree rows for the view -  one created when the select query is issued
    1st time from the IIS application and another one created when the same select query is issued 1st time from SSMS.   The usecounts of the Parse Tree row for the view (the IIS one) is increasing whenever the select query is issued.  The
    usecounts of the Parse Tree row for the view (the SSMS one) does not increase when the select query is issued again. 
    There seems to be a correlation between the slowness of the query and the increasing of the usecounts of the Parse Tree row for the view.  
    I don't know why there is 2 Parse Tree rows for the view.  There is also 2 Compiled Plan rows for the select query.  
    What does the Parse Tree row mean especially the usecounts column?

    >> The issue just starts happening this week and there is no mass changes in data.  
    There might be a mass changes in the execution plan for several reason without mass changes in data
    If you have the old version and a way to check the old execution plan, and compare to the new one, that this should be your starting point. In most cases you don't have this option and we need to monitor from scratch.
    >> The problem only occur if the query is issued from an IIS application but not from SSMS.
    This mean that we know exactly what is the different and you can compare both execution plan. once you do it, you will find that they are no the same. But this is very common issue and we can know that it is a result of different SETting while connecting
    from different application. SSMS is an external app like any app that you develop in Visual studio but the SSMS dose not use the Dot.Net default options.
    Please check this link, to find the full explanation and solutions:
    http://www.sommarskog.se/query-plan-mysteries.html
    Take a look at sys.dm_exec_sessions for your ASP.Net application and for your SSMS session.
    If you need more specific help, then we need more information and less stories :-)
    We need to see the DDL+DML+Query and both execution plans
    >> What does the Parse Tree row mean
    I am not sure what you mean but the parse tree represents the logical steps necessary to execute the query that has been requested. you can check this tutorial about the execution plan: https://www.simple-talk.com/sql/performance/execution-plan-basics/ or
    this one: http://www.developer.com/db/understanding-a-sql-server-query-execution-plan.html

  • What happens when I ctrl+right click on a tab header? What does "(*)" mean?

    When I ctrl+right click on a tab header, there appears "(*)" before the title of the tab header. I don't see any change in the behavior or properties of the header. What's happend? What does it mean?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Ctrl+Right click on tab header

    That is not a built-in feature of Firefox, but is part of the Tab Mix plus add-on.
    What it means is the tab has been selected for merging.
    To see what it does have 2 Firefox windows open, in one of them open several tabs then select a few of them so that they have "(*)" displayed in the tab. Now use the Tab Mix Plus merge window option, the selected tabs will be merged with the other Firefox window, and the unselected tabs will just be closed.
