White fringe around my buttons

Hi, I'm using the trial version of Captivate 5 for Mac. I have 8GB RAM, OS 10.6.7, and pretty new Macbook. I'm trying to use the "next_black" series of three buttons (up, down, over). I'm using this so that I can pause the presentation after each slide and let the user click to continue.
Anyway, I have a green background behind the button, and it is showing a white fringe around the edges. I tried checking "Make Button Transparent" in the Properties > General tab, but that has no effect. I also edited the buttons in Photoshop and changed the background around the buttons from transparent to the green of my slides. Even after saving these in the gallery and selecting them under Properties > General > Browse, I STILL get the white fringing. I have tried quitting and restarting Captivate, but get the same thing.
So it appears that Captivate is still using the original image file with the transparent background. This is strange and seems like a bug to me. I am following the naming conventions for the buttons, by the way.
Here is a screenshot from the published presentation. There is no fringe apparent when working in Captivate, only the published version.
I like the program, but it seems kind of buggy in general. It didn't offer the project I'm working on as a "Recent Item" in the startup screen until I had opened it about 10 times in a row! And I usually have to click the name of the project two or three times before it will open. Still, I was able to produce a nice project, if I can just figure out the button deal.
Another thing--the forum search function isn't working. No results for "button" or "buttons" in "search this forum."
Thanks everybody!

Okay, quick follow-up question. Only the right side of the "Next" buttons show the mouseover effect. So if I mouseover the "Next" text part of the button, nothing happens. Mouseover the arrow and you get the effect. Any idea what is going on there?
Ooo, interesting follow-up. The mouseover effect works fine in Safari and Chrome, just not in FireFox 4 (all on the Mac). Also mouseover is confirmed working with FireFox 4 for PC. I'm going to chalk this up to a bug in FF4 for Mac.

Thank you for the help,
After houuuuurs of struggling I saw it was a rectangle shape I drew on my

Could you maybe assist me with a other problem.
Im a photographer, and want to view my images in a blog type manner.
Therefore not in a typical lightvox way, but as attached example.
I don¹t know what would be the best option. To create shapes with rectangle
tool and fill with image? And if so, it takes so long to process, what file

Why is there a black part in the X when I try to delete my app? It's covering up the supposed to be white space around the X button

Help!! Why is there a black part in the X when I try to delete my app? It's covering up the supposed to be white space around the X button

Try:
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Since they all line up on the left site that could be a hardware problem or maybe a software glitch. I have never seen that problem posterd here before

Template with php script, white space around background, locking layers

two questions for 2 sites:
1.) first site http://www.beckervanhoveln.com
I can't get my background to line up correctly; there is a giant white border around the whole thing. With the amount of extra space around the background on all sides, I think it may be an issue with the illustrator file I am importing, but I can't see any way to fix it there, either. All the margins that I can find to change relating to that background are set to 0. Any ideas on what could be causing this? The image in Illustrator is 14" wide, so it's plenty wide enough to cover the whole page.
2.) site http://sai.theclothesgallery.com
I inserted php scripts into a page (in the editable paragraph region) and it is messing up the alignment of the page. Compare what you get on the home page with what you get when you click the "client login" button. Also, wondering where the extra body area came from on page http://sai.theclothesgallery.com/protected_downloads_zdr/validuser.php.
On both sites I am using wrapper and body tags, as directed in the tutorial by Nate (great one, thanks!). On my old site, http://www.theclothesgallery.com, everything works fine, but on the new ones I am just out of my mind. I've spent 10 hours over the last 2 days doing research and trying to manipulate code, to no avail. Thanks to anyone who can help.
Finally, is there a way to lock a layer inside or on top of another layer. for example, the layer the body text is in on site http://sai.theclothesgallery.com is on top of the layer that holds the page's images (which is an imported illustrator file with slices). Is there a way to lock that layer to the first one so it doesn't move if I make changes?

Kelly,
1. The image itself has a white border. You will need to crop that image
in an image editor such as Photoshop.
2. Looking at the source of the page you have two sections and
two opening toags but only one closingtag. The PHP
script is probably creating the additional sections, but without seeing
the script it is impossible to say for certain.
2a. You probably have a space or blank line before the opening

Removing White Space Around Header - from CSS?

What is causing the white space around the header and
above/below the top nav bar? There's also an extra white pixel
space between each of the buttons on the top nav bar.
See;
http://home.roadrunner.com/~phenline/products/prods_models_9_10_07.html
I've also attached the CSS stylesheet.
I thought it might be a valign tag but they are all in the
main text and are necessary to glue the 3 main sections just under
the top nav bar. I couldn't find any vspace or hspace options in
the code.
Because of the rollovers on the top blue horizontal nav bar,
I need the "class" option in each <td> tag. Otherwise, if I
put the class="navMain" option on the <tr> tag, then the
whole nav bar will show the rollover color. Or, I suppose I could
create 5 different CSS styles for each nav button ???
Any ideas? Thank you.

HI, for first you should to revrite tables to DIV, or you can
correct this with a CSS code for the table:
for example you shold to check the background color to the
same:
.x {
background-color: #3766c8;
for more example about Table CSS styling you can check a good
wizard:

skottish, thank you so much! At least I found where to search thing to fix.
There was one problem with you solution - if you change window.client.padding lines to the zero, you will lost ability to resize terminal window. The best fix is to change this lines:
window.active.client.color: #XXXXXX
window.active.client.color: #XXXXXX
and set #000000 or what would you like.
Anyway, thanks again, you gave me a key to solution!

White background around logo

I have created a logo for the top banner of my webpage. It is a black, abstract gif image on a transparent background. When I insert it into the banner which has a grey background, there is always a faint white outline around the logo image. How do I get rid of this. I'm a bit of a cs4 newbie. Thanks

I've tried that and it doesn't seem to make any difference. I'm experimenting with the 'Refine Edge' button on the original selection to see if that makes any difference - its a bit trial and error. Expand/contract seems to make it worse no matter which way I go.

My Firefox interface is messed up. When I hover over or click a button it becomes all pixlated, the blocks move around, and lines appear around the buttons.

When I hover over or click a button on the tool bar it becomes messed up. Blocks, or more like pixels, appear over the buttons. They are white and they move around. Little black lines appear around the buttons too. I tried uninstalling and re-downloading Firefox, a full reset, etc. Nothing has worked so far. To see pictures of the problem use this URL (it brings you to Imgur): http://imgur.com/a/LXHQg

How to create image slice with transparent background without white halo around?

Hi, I want to make slice image with transparent background. I set the slice option background color to my background color. But when the image is on my html page set against the same background color, it has white halo around:
How can I get rid of the white halo?
I need the slice image to have transparent background and not have a color background because it's going on a rollover button with the background change. I don't want it to look like this on rollover:

>it looks to me like you built it with that "halo" to start with.
No, I didn't put in the halo myself. The shape is a character from the Webdings font. It's set to some darker fill color and set on a transparent background. Photoshop put the white halo there after "Save For Web".
> Make your graphic on a transparent background and Save for Web
I did exactly that, see:
I set the slice background to my color. I try the Matte option and come out the same with white halo.
It seems I'm not making Photoshop antialias to my background color, instead Photoshop just antialias to white.
What else do I need to do?

How can I create a white border around figures that are in an image? (CS 6; examples+image included)

Hi,
I have CS6 and am wondering how to create a white ("comic style"?) border around figures in an image, as in the examples below. I don't wish to include the black shadow of the border, just the white part.
Examples:
Here's the image I'd like to alter, making a white border around the outline of all five figures:
I researched for quite a while but could find no instructions. It would be very much appreciated if someone knows and would be kind enough to share the technique! Thank you.

If you make the image a layer (opposed to Background)...
You could Select the blue with the Magic Wand as Semaphoric says, then fill with white. Then choose Select - Modify Selection - Contract, and mask or delete the remaining pixels. The Contract operation will give you a nice border the size you choose.
For extra credit, you could use Refine Edge to make the selection more accurate.
Click to see the image against a dark background.

How can I print a booklet without a white outline around the border?

How can I print a booklet without a white outline around the border? I'd like the front page to be covered entirely.

You either need a borderless printer, or you have to print on oversize paper and trim off the bleed.

White outline around images in pdf

Ok I've searched google for help and have not found any tips. I'm using CS4. I'm creating a document in indesign. I've placed some psd files into the document. In photoshop they are an object with a transparent background.
Now they look fine when printing and when viewing in indesign. But when i output as a ps from indesign, then take it into distiller it creates a pdf with a white outline around the image. Why is this happening? See attachement. Outline is on the bottom, it's a really thin line.
I do file print, select adobe pdf 8.0 then i pick the postscript option, then hit print to save the pdf. I've tried changing from CMYK to leave unchanged for color options. Please help!!!

Try searching for the term stitching. That should give you plenty.
In short, what you're seeing is the result of your archaic workflow causing the transparency to be flattened. The preferred and recommended method for PDF creation is through direct export, maintaining all transparency in the document.

Hairline white line around images in PDF for press

CS3, Windows XP
I searched the forum and didn't find this exact question, so..., I place PSD file in ID. When I export to PDF for the press run, I get a thin hairline white box around the photo. It only seems to happen when the placed image is over a gradient. It also only happens on PDF files for press run - either Press Quality or PDF/X-1a:2001. When I export to "Smallest File Size" it looks fine. I have the border of the image set to 0 and the color to None.
And it only seems to happen sometimes. A month or so ago I created a similar piece using different photos, but the same gradient background and it looked and printed fine.
Thoughts?
JAG

The stitching and a grey box was showing up on my press proofs. The printer suggested that I flatten the image before I send it to them.
Sometimes I see in on screen and sometimes I don't, but my printer says they see it every time and that it will show up on the proof. I've been trying several different PDF exporting options in ID. We are getting the proofs done correctly, but there's only one guy at my printer that can get the file corrected. I'm not sure exactly what he is doing, but one of the people I deal with suggested that he was opening the file in PS, flattening it again, and exporting to PDF, again.
He's the boss and not alway around, so I'm trying to figure out how I can get file exported correctly.
Thanks for your help.

Can't get rid of white border around image

http://www.gunnar.ca/laminatepage2.htm
I created a rounded corner in photoshop for my table. I
created a cell in the bottom left corner of the table and placed
the gif. There is a thin whit border around the outer edge of the
gif, so it doesn't look genuinely rounded. Can anyone tell me how
to get rid of that so it looks like the table is actually rounded?
Thank you!

Because the table containing the GIF has a border. In your
styleA.css
stylesheet, the rule:
.border {
border: 1px solid #E5E5E5;
adds a border to the table. Delete the rule. Of course - that
may affect
other things that use the .border class. Or - delete the
class from the
table tag.
Several problems with the page:
styles.css cannot be found
sideNavStyles.css cannot be found
34 vaildation errors:

Help! When in "graphic watermark" setting, how do I remove white box around my watermark? Already saved in PNG

I'm trying to upload a saved graphic watermark to my photos in Lightroom 4 but no matter what I do, I can't get the white box around the watermark to go away. I've already tried saving the watermark file in PNG like other sites suggested but it does no good. Other sites tell me I need to save the watermark in another version of adobe and check the box "transparent" but Lightroom is the only version of adobe I have. Any help ASAP would be greatly appreciated!!!

I have also been trying to solve the same problem. Where does one take an already created watermark and make it transparent? I have Photoshop on my old Mac and e-mailed my solid white background watermark to myself, opened it in Photoshop and "erased" the white background. Transfered it back to my Lightroom on my MacBookPro and exported the test photo w/ the "erased" background watermark. I had no idea if it would work….it did not. OR : How does one create a transparent watermark? I have a graphic I want to use w/ my name. Please HELP!!!
