What is it called?

Hi gang!
In Illustrator, when you drag with the Pen tool, the pen icon turns into a black arrowhead-ish shape.
What is that icon called?
Many thanks!!!

Mike,
Wording from good old 10:
To draw a curved segment:
•Select the pen tool .
•Position the pen tip where you want the curve to begin. Hold down the mouse button. The first anchor point appears, and the pen tip changes to an arrowhead.

    All you need is a plug adaptor, if required. Apple sells an adapter kit:

  • I'd like to toggle between the source and timeline and bypass the program tab - what is this called in the shortcut tab?

    When editing, I have to press my shortcut twice to get back to the source window as it goes via the program monitor first. Is there an assignable shortcut just between the timeline and source? If so, what is it called?

    If so many people have the same question and concern about this, why is it consistently ignored?  I've seen countless posts like this that are told to ignore the logs or to only dump when asked to. How can those of us that have these questions get an answer?  Can I im someone who can help me or are they being ignored because it it evidence that our devices have been jailbroken without our knowledge?
    If you can point me in the direction of someone who is willing to help I would greatly appreciate it!
    Thanks in advance!

  • I had something that help me find the last pages and recentpages I visited but I had to reinstall fox fire and it's gone how do i get it back and what was it call

    I open a new tab and recent pages, last pages and most visited pages, would be displayed but I had to uninstall fox fire then reinstall and now it gone. How do I get that back? What was it call.

    You have probably simply opened a blank Layout template which has no default text area. In Layout documents you need to add textboxes to the page.
    Just start over from the Tempalet Chooser and pick a Word Processing document (see the sidebar titles) or a template with actual content in it already.

  • What is it called when you do this?

    What is it called when you have something similar to a blog where you have your code say, let there be 5 posts, and after 5 posts create a new page to put the other posts on that page so there is only 5 per page?
    I'm not really sure how to search that so I can learn how it's done.
    I'm using Repeating Template Regions so if anyone can either tell me what it's called or link me to a good tutorial that would help me that would be great!
    Basically what I'm hoping is that I can press the little "+" on my Repeating Template Region and once there is more than a specific number of the regions, the excess will continue onto another page that I can link to.
    (Side Question... Anyway to organize these regions in Alphabetical order?)
    - Thanks!

    It's called pagination
    There are server behaviors in Dreamweaver to do this.
    MySQL queries use the ORDER BY argument to ORDER BY alphabetically or numberically either in ascending or descending order.
    example:
    SELECT table_column, table_column2
    FROM table_name
    WHERE table_column = 'something'
    ORDER BY table_column ASC
    best,

  • How do I put shortcuts to web sites in a (?) tool bar/browser bar...don't know what it is called. With IE, I can just drag the tab for the site to the area I want.

    How do I put shortcuts to web sites in a (?) tool bar/browser bar...don't know what it is called. With IE, I can just drag the tab for the site to the area I want

    Near the right-end of the address bar is a white star which can be difficult to see, but look closely. When you wish to bookmark a shortcut to the toolbar, double click the star. A window will open with the name of the webpage. Under that is the folder box which will probably read 'Unsorted Bookmarks'. Click the drop down arrow and change it to 'Bookmarks Toolbar' then click done.
    I have several folders on my toolbar such as Music, Mail, etc. in which I add multiple websites. If you wish to add a folder, click the second drop down arrow next to 'Bookmark Toolbar' and click 'New Folder' and give it a name.
    To add a bookmark to a folder, again double click the star, make sure you are in Bookmark Toolbar and click one of the two drop down arrows to find the name of the folder.
    For other bookmarks use Bookmark Menu. Whatever is added here can be accessed by Bookmarks on the Menu Bar. If your Menu Bar with Bookmark, File, View, etc. is not visible, click the Alt key and they will become visible. To keep the Menu Bar, click View, Toolbars and check Menu Bar.

  • What handler is called when a Status-Bar-Icon is clicked in Cocoa-Applescript?

    In Cocoa-Applescript Xcode, what handler is called when the Status-Bar-Icon for my app is clicked? Are there any variables or connections that I have to make?

    Thanks Red_menace! I don't know what the Apple community would do without you.
    For others viewing this question, the following is the proper format, for Cocoa-Applescript:
    property NSStatusBar : class "NSStatusBar"
    property StatusItem : ""
    on applicationWillFinishLaunching_()
    set StatusItem to NSStatusBar's systemStatusBar's statusItemWithLength_(current application's NSSquareStatusItemLength)
    StatusItem's setAction_("myAction:")
    end applicationWillFinishLaunching_
    on myAction_()
    say "Hello!"
    end myAction_
    Where "myAction:" is the action that you want to call when the Status-Bar-Item is clicked. It should also be noted that this handler will not be called if a menu or view is already linked to it's click action.

  • Does anyone know where the iWeb data files are located or what they are called?  I can't find them.  I looked in Finder for files named the same as my website, but found nothing.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Does anyone know where the iWeb data files are located or what they are called?  I can't find them.  I looked in Finder for files named the same as my website, but found nothing.  Any help would be appreciated.

    If you erased or replaced your hard drive since iWeb was cancelled, then they are gone. Otherwise, if you have maintained backups then check those.
    Usually such files are in the /Home/Library/ folder or a sub-folder.
    Exposing the /Home/Library/ Folder
    Pick one of the following methods:
    A. This method will make the folder visible permanently. Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and paste the following at the command prompt:
    chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press RETURN.
    B. Click on the Desktop, press the OPTION (⌥) button, select Library from the Finder's Go menu.
    C. Select Go To Folder from the Finder's Go menu. Paste the following in the path field:
    ~/Library
    Press the Go button.

  • My new ipod classic does not work anymore! The music stopped and the display is dead. What now, besides calling support?

    My new ipod classic does not work anymore! The music stopped and the display is dead. What now, besides calling support? Useless to say my PC didn't recognize the Ipod anymore either.

    Anton, I wish I could help. I had an old iPod Classic (60 KB) as a gift but it went dead, I dropped it a few times accidentally, and it sat carefully saved until I had sufficient resources, energy and time to get the matter addressed. In my case, I actually took the thing (after making sure it was charged) to an Apple store and one of the geniuses at the genius bar at the back of the store took it and did a few things (unseen and un-noted) with his fingers and handed it to me with a sly smile. Voila, the thing was functional. I got a re-functionalized iTunes account and store access when I bought my iMac. I did lose a few tunes along the way because it didn't recognize my new iMac as the source (my old dead PC laptop), but I have a more functional memory than the iPod and recovered them all in other ways. The whole thing is humming better than ever. At over 11 gb full, I have 4.2 days worth of portable listening. Be patient; it took me four years to get musical nirvana in a pocket, but you'll get there faster. Call support.

  • What do you call this basic technique?

    Request: Is there a name for the technique I'm using below, because I
    know I've seen it and done it before.
    Context: I'd like to allow the user to resize images, while preserving
    their width:height aspect ratio. My GUI has a pair of JSpinners, for width
    and height, and when one is adjusted, the other should change.
    Example: if the aspect ratio is 2:1, setting the width spinner to 201
    should cause the height spinner to change to 100 (I truncate), whilst setting
    the height spinner to 100 should cause the width spinner to change to 200.
    But: I don't want those reactions to cascade: from the example, if the
    user sets the width spinner to 201, the height spinner should change to 100,
    but that is where it should stop -- the width spinner shouldn't itself react
    and change to 200.
    My solution: I'm a fan of fixing it in the model, and here is my tweak for
    SpinnerNumberModel: public class SafeSpinnerNumberModel extends SpinnerNumberModel {
         public SafeSpinnerNumberModel(int value, int minimum, int maximum, int stepSize) {
             super(value, minimum, maximum, stepSize);
         public void setValue(Object value) {
             if (!inSetValue) {
                 inSetValue = true;
                 super.setValue(value);
                 inSetValue = false;
         private boolean inSetValue;
    In my code, there are two JSpinners (with SafeSpinnerNumberModels),
    and each model has a ChangeListener that reacts by adjusting the other model.
    The flag stops the potential feedback loop.
    So, again, what would you call this technique?
    Thanks,
    BDLH

I have no idea what any of this is, but its all thousands of rows of red-green-yellow, telling who's not doing any work. And if you change one value all the colors change all over the place.

  • I used to have an add-on that made the reload icon to the right of the address bar turn red when the page was downloading . What is it called?

    It has disappeared after I had to do a restore.
    I can't remember what the add-on is called. I am using FireFox 22 on a Win8 64 bit system.
    Can anyone tell me what it is called so I can get it back?

    After using the Firefox Reset feature, a folder named Old Firefox Data should appear on your desktop. This folder should contain all your old extensions. However, there is a gotcha: many of them are filed under alphanumeric identifiers rather than readable names. Still, it's worth a quick look.
    Actually, here's a thought: if you drag a .xpi file from the Old Firefox Data\extensions folder and drop it on an open Firefox tab, you should get the install dialog which, presumably, will tell you the extension's name. In theory you could try one after another until you find the one you want. Please note that installing an extension from disk rather than the Add-ons site may make it impossible for Firefox to find updates, so it would be better to figure out the name and get it from the source if you can.
    Any luck?

  • What are these called?

    Hi,
    I am trying to figure out what this element is?  Since I dont know what its actually called I have to provide a picture for my example.
    What are these elements called?  I have pointed to them in my image with the red arrows.  Im pretty sure the horizontal ones are  a "horizontal rule".  But what about the vertical ones?  And how does one implement them in a site?  http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g29/FartyMcFly/Example.jpg
    Thanks for any answers in advance and I apologize if its something stupidly simple.
    Thanks

    How do I set the length of the border lines.
    I'm afraid there is no support for that in current CSS2 standards.
    You will be able to do it with CSS3 border-images.  But not for a few more years.
    http://www.css3.info/preview/border-image/
    In the meantime, you could put your border on a neighboring division -- see example below:

  • What method is called only once in the life cycle?

    Hello,
    What method is called only once in the life cycle of an Entity Bean and Session Bean?
    Is it ejbRemove()?
    Thanks

    hi,
    ejbCreate() and setSessionContext() are called once by the container after the bean instace is created.when the bean instance goes to pool and again return to ready state to handle client requests these methods r never called .only bussiness methods r called.this is in case of stateless session bean.
    in case of stateful session bean, each bean instance is associated with client.so,when new client requests, new bean instance is created and above 2 methods are called. no pool terminology in case of stateful session bean.
    ejbRemove() is called by the container when it is abt to remove bean instance,so it its obvious tht it is called only once.
