White rectangle appears on exported Gif Rollover

Hi, I'm on FW CS3 and DW CS3 (Using Intel iMac). I'm
exporting a simple Gif rectangular rollover from FW into
Dreamweaver. While I'm not a web expert, I've done plenty of
rollover navigation graphics in Fireworks. The browser preview of
the rollover looks good in FW, but when I export it to Dreamweaver,
it technically works but I get a white rectangle at the bottom of
the graphic when I rollover with the mouse - a white triangle which
I do not want to be there.
I've tried various differences in positioning my slice in FW
and I've tried Dreamweaver Html and switching to Generic Html in
case that made any difference. Neither change helped.
At the risk of cyber-embarrassment, I've published my graphic
(It's a rollover to start an email) to this url:

I appreciate any help on solving this; it could be something
basic which I've overlooked.
Many Thanks, Frank B.

Well, this is a bit awkward. I had a Private Message from
Frank asking for a clarification, but when I reply I get an error.
So, Frank, if you're reading...
HI!
What I've done is this:
Take your Fireworks image, where you have the rounded
rectangle vector object (and text and whatever else on your
background color) and export (Image>Preview, not Save) that to a
PNG 24, but save it with a different file name or in a different
folder.
Hmm...I've JUST realized there's a slightly easier way!
Okay...open this flattened image. Go to Modify>Canvas>Canvas
Color and set that to transparent.
Select the magic wand selection tool. In the Properties
palette, set the tolerance to 0. Click in one of the corners, then
press your Delete key. That portion of your image will become
transparent. Do the same for the other corners.
Now export to GIF format and make sure to select Alpha
Transparency so that your corners come out, well, transparent.
If this doesn't work for you, bump your thread:

  • Strange white rectangles appear behind "menu commands"

    When I hover over the menu commands in Photoshop or Illustrator (both CS2), white rectangles appear behind the Menu Commands and so cluttering the otherwise nice GUI. As I experienced this before on another computer but still have no clue what is going wrong could someone give me a clue what's going on here? I am using Windows XP Service Pack 2.
    kind regards,
    tomasio

    can you show a screen shot? try http://www.pixentral.com upload the screen shot and copy the url in your address bar to a post here.
    from your description it SOUNDS like it might be a display driver issue, but it's hard to tell. a screen shot might help someone nail it.
    might as well try updating your video driver to see if there's anything newer out there than what you're currently running.

  • HELP!!!  Weird white bars appearing in exports...

    We have just hired on a fabulous graphic designer to our company, but every time we export her designs as jpegs instead of PDFs, horizontal white bars appear going across smaller images. The bars do not line up with each other, even across images of the exact same size. There are no hidden objects to get rid of and this happens no matter which machine we open it on, hers, mine, my assistants, or any one of the other 5 computers in our studio. What is going on? Why does it look perfect as a PDF and crappy as a jpeg?
    We are using InDesign as past of the new creative suite that includes photoshop CS3.

    Well Buko that doesn't sound like an answer at all but as a workaround to a flaw in the program itself. Are you telling me that the only way to get a jpeg out of InDesign is to first export as a PDF? If that's the case, then it means Adobe has put out a product that doesn't work as it is supposed to.
    Buko, you did not attempt to answer my question, and in fact tried to make me feel stupid for not seeing the obvious answer of spending more time doing what InDesign already should do. No one likes a smart aleck.
    This is a serious question to the rest of the world. My question is NOT how to eventually get a jpeg. My question is this: Why can I not export a jpeg directly from InDesign? What is going on? Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a bug in our version of InDesign, or is this a common problem?

  • A blank white rectangle appears infront of loading pages, forced to click it closed. How to remove these blanks from happening?

    I click a link and while page is loading, a single wide blank rectangle with an x in the upper right corner pops up. I am forced to close it by clicking the X. I cannot click on the desired 'loaded page' that sits behind the blank box at all. This happens throughout the day, everyday for the last 3 months. So annoying. I am not computer savvy. I took a pic for you to see, but I cannot figure out how to send it to you.

    You can't attach a screenshot to the first post that starts a thread, but you can do that in subsequent replies.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Cursor is trapped in white rectangle (in windows) when trying to exit certain programs

    I recently installed windows 8.1 using bootcamp 5 onto my 2011 macbook pro that's running on mavericks.  I really only wanted it so I would be able to play some old pc games through steam.  The install seemed to go pretty smooth but I ran into a huge problem when I actually opened a game.
    I'm not sure if it's a problem with windows or steam, but every time I go to play a game it works just fine until i go to save and close it out, then a big white rectangle appears and seems to trap my cursor so that I cant do anything at all.  After some fooling around I was able to get the game to close, but the white rectangle was still there on the desktop screen and wouldn't allow my cursor to go anywhere.  I tried swapping to the space with the live tiles, and the white rectangle didn't appear there, but mouse was still acting like it was.  I had to restart my laptop for this problem to finally go away. 
    does anyone know what might be the cause or suggestions on how to fix this?? thanks!

    The issue mysteriously resolved itself. I shut down the computer, and the next day I booted back up and tried to open the same file, and everything was OK. Very bizarre, since I had opened it previously on this same MacBook. Anyway, anyone have any insight into what happened?

  • Bug: white rectangle in corner of frame under windows

    First, I know I should post a bug report, but I cannot supply source code for this problem as I can only replicate using our whole product (proprietary source).
    Under Windows only (never Linux), when using 1.4.0, I sometimes get a white rectangle appearing in the top-left corner that obscures my menus and any toolbar buttons under it. It appears intermittently and does not go away when the application is minimized/maximized. This only happens in Window and has only started since we switched to 1.4.0 (did not happen in 1.3.1).
    Has anyone else seen this? I cannot find any bugs on it in the bug parade.

    I think I have had a similar problem... In my case, it had to do with dragging a panel around in my window, and I was able to resolve it somehow

    Hi When going from Develop module to print module a white boarder appears on screen which also prints via my epson r3000 printer. I can get round this by exporting photo to Elements and printing from there but can i get rid of the boarder and print from lightroom?

    In the printer driver (accessed through the Page Setup button) set the Advanced tab to borderless. Then in the right hand panel under Layout set all the margins to zero.

  • White background appears "gray" after export

    Hello, I have created a short video with a white background (title screen) and no matter what compression settings I use to export the file to Quicktime, I always have the same problem -- the white background appears gray in the final video (with the exception of the uncompressed YUV422 setting).
    Does anyone know why this is happening? Thanks!
      Windows XP Pro   Quicktime Pro 7.1.3

    Do you think this has anything to do with the default color corrections? Can I disable them altogether?

  • Weird white dots appearing in menu

    Hello everyone,
    I just noticed today that everytime I open the menu up top and rollover a button, white dots appear. Each time I rollover, the dots change position. For example, if I roll over a selection, there are a lot of dots, and sometimes there aren't a lot of dots. It appear to only show when I roll over a selection in the menus up top or in the system preferences menu. They are sometime black dots too. It does not appear anywhere else, so I don't think they are dead pixels. I have turned off the translucent effect too, btu that did not fix it.
    I added three photos for examples.
    Two images show two different times I rolled over the same selection and the dots changed, and one image is in the system preferences as another example.

  • White lines appear on videos since my new Mac Pro - Why?

    Hello,
    I'm the happy owner of a Mac Pro 2,7 GHz 12-Core Intel Xeon E5 / 64 gig RAM / 2X AMD FirePro D700 6144 Mo running on OS X 10.9.3 (13D65).
    I'm using CC latest version but also Red Giant Magic Bullet LOOKS to color grade my videos (on an adjustment layer). I have 3 HDD (1 SSD in the computer with the programs + 1 external (Thunderbold) G-RAID for cache files + 1 external Pegasus R6 2 (Thunderbolt 2) for the footage).
    Sometimes, when reading (but more often when exporting in Media Encoder) white lines appear on the video (see image below). Why?
    Is that a Premiere problem? Is something going wrong with my Mac? I have already reinstalled everything from scratch but the problem remains...
    I was working with the same programs on my previous iMac and I didn't have this problem.
    Any idea ?

    Is it an Adobe or a Mac Pro 2013 related problem? Does everyone using the GPU acceleration have the same problem?
    So far, it appears to be an issue with OS X 10.9.2 and up.  Some folks that are beta testing 10.9.4 have reported that the strange artifacts no longer appear while using Hardware mode, but a few folks are still having Premiere crashes with it.  My suspicion is that we're seeing two separate problems with Premiere on the new Mac Pro when using Hardware mode: 1) artifacts, lines, etc on exports and 2) application crashes.  Neither of these appear to happen when Pr and AME are put into Software mode.  Given the commonality of the problems (using GPUs on the new Mac Pro) some folks seem to think they're directly related.  My gut tells me they aren't.
    The challenge for the folks at Adobe and other third party app developers is that the boys (and girls) in Cupertino are changing things within OS X a bit too quickly, for better, for worse.  Some of these changes are what I call "ninja patches" where they don't really explain what they're changing or why.  I strongly suspect that's what's going on here.  They sneaked something into OS X 10.9.2 and haven't un-sneaked it yet.  Folks are strongly encouraging Adobe to address this issue pronto, but if Cupertino keeps altering the guts of the OS, how can they?

  • White rectangle in placed PDF

    Hi all,
    When I view this PDF in Adobe Acrobat 9.3.0 (Windows), I see no problem. When I open the PDF in Photoshop, a white rectangle next to the white square at the bottom left corner appears. Anyone familiar with this phenomenon? Any idea what's wrong here (problem in the PDF itself or problem in Photoshop trying to to open the PDF correctly)? The problem does not only occur when you use the "Open" command, but also when you "Place" the PDF in Photoshop.
    Thanks in advance.
