Why does SHIFT+CLICK to select/append selection in STP work so badly?

This drives me absolutely crazy. It's the one thing one needs to do in this application and it works appallingly.
I have an area selected of my waveform. I want to add a little more from along the timeline, or trim the selection a bit. I hit SHIFT+CLICK and drag out the selection, and it usually deselects what I've painstakingly selected.
Are there any ways of actually making this work? Can't believe it ships like this!!!!!

no one?

Why does shift click for straight line not work in mask

Is "Shift Click" supposed to work when editing a mask with the brush tool. Seems like it used to but doesn't any more. Anybody have this problem?

Could you please post a screenshot with the pertinent Panels (Layers, Brush, Brush Preset, Options Bar, …) visible?
If resetting the Tool dow not help you can always try restoring preferences (preferably after after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved).

Why do you need to shift click to select stroke color with eyedropper tool?

Hi,
Quick question..
Why do you need to shift click to select the stroke color with the eyedropper tool?
I had the problem where I could not do this earlier and found the solution on this forum.
However I still do not understand the reason for this.
Appreciate if anyone could explain it to me.
Thanks in advance.
Nori

Hi, Nori,
If you have the red and blue rectangle selected and the Fill square selected in the tool panel, as at bottom left, then hold the shift key down and click with the eyedropper on the green stroke in the upper rectangle, then the red fill will turn green but the stroke stays blue. If you select Stroke, as at bottom right, then shift-click with the eyedropper on the green stroke, the blue stroke will turn green but the fill stays red. With Fill selected and shift-click on the yellow fill, the red fill turns yellow; with Stroke selected the blue stroke turns yellow. If you do not depress the shift key, the red and blue rectangle will become yellow and green.
It's complicated to explain, but I think that if you try it step by step it will make sense to you.

Why does SQL execute inner selected functions again in the outer select?

Hi,
Why does SQL execute inner selected functions again in the outer select?
Given:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION K_TEST
RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
RETURN 1;
END;
SELECT K_TEST, K_TEST FROM DUAL;Will (logically) execute the function twice.
SELECT intest, intest
FROM (SELECT K_TEST intest FROM DUAL);Will execute the function twice too!
Why can't SQL buffer the inner result?
Does anyone have an idea on how to achieve executing the function only once? My original called function is quite heavy and returning a user defined type. Adding predicates, the function is executed 3 or 4 times!
Thanks for any tips,
K.

Elapsed: 00:00:00.01THis last example takes advantage of a specific optimisation for calling functions in a subquery. Not sure if it would suit your circumstance though...
Alternatively - again depending on your version - you might be able to look at function result caching...

Shift+Click to Select Layer is moving layer across workspace

Hello everyone.
When I Shift+click to select a layer, this layer moves and continues to move across the stage with each shift+click?
Weird!
Anyone ever have a similar issue or any suggestions?
Thanks hardlee

No the layer object starts moving across the stage.
I hook up my laptop to my office monitor and use usb keyboard and mouse while at office. It happens in this scenario and also happens when out of the office using my laptop touch pad. Shift plus LeftClick and the layer starts moving, sometimes it will move clear off the main stage in to the greyed out area around the graph.
Again weird...

Why does the internet on my new macbook pro not work when my old macbook's does?

Why does the internet on my new macbook pro not work when my old macbook's does? I'll have to turn the wifi off and back on multiple times to get the internet to continue to work on my Macbook Pro (running mountain lion but did it on lion also) when it runs fine on my old white Macbook (running lion). Is there something I can do to fix it or do I just have to deal with it?

Here is your fix .. I have uploaded my properly calibrated profile get it here :
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YAJL6A9X
And it should go to your user folder/Library/ColorSync/Profiles
if you have one already you can rename either one ..
and then go to system preferences - displays - color to select the profile .
you will get rid of the blue tint while keeping correct color and gamma
This is for the newer 2010 MBP's altho if same display was used might also give good results in the previous models as well . .

Why does my iPad continuously close from where I'm working and takes me to home screen?

It might be out of memory. Close all apps you're not using using the toolbar that comes up when you double click on the home button. Press and hold any icon and then tap on the red minus (-) symbol of the apps you're not using.

Why does the "fix" for firefox copying and pasting not work?

I did the fix a few times and restarted firefox, with no success. Also, I installed the latest version of firefox and it is slower now. I have to use firefox for school, otherwise I would just find another way.

In what way is Firefox slow?
Is this all the time or only with loading web pages?
What kind of fix do you mean with: ''Why does the "fix" for firefox copying and pasting not work'' ?

Shift-click File Selection Broken

Hello,
I know this is a small issue, but it has become an annoyance.
Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my shift-click adjacent file selection method has not been fuctioning. It behaves exactly like the Cmd-click selection method and does not select all intermediate adjacent files.
Any thoughts?
2.4GHz Core 2 Duo MBP running OSX 10.8.

Are you saying that you can not make a range selection by clicking the first item, holding shift and then clicking the last item? Does it work if you click the first item, hold down shift and use the arrow keys to select?

Internet Connect..why does it say "The selected device is not available"..?

Hi guys,
Can you help? I am using BT Broadband in the UK via a wireless router. However, every time my computer wakes up from sleeping an Internet Connection window pops open and says "The selected communications device is not available. Please check your settings" or something to that effect.
Why does it do this and how can I stop it? My airport works just fine and automatically connects to the broadband.....
Thanks

Why does Shift-C not work

Does anyone have an idea why my Shift-C doesn't work? That's the only key combo that does not work and it's on two seperate keyboards. I checked my Settings/Keyboard and don't see any modifiers that might be screwing it up. Driving me absolutely nuts, hope someone has an idea what it could be. Thank you in advance for your help!!!

Thank you hpr3 & mr.k99 for your replies. I was just trying to use shift-C to make a capital C and it wasn't working.
Turns out I had a Shift-C shortcut setup in Growl that was fouling it up. It's all fixed. Thanks again for your quick responses.

Why does audio click/pop at in and out of any transition I apply?

If it's not a pop or a click, after I apply a transsion for some reason the audio level drops during the transition and doesn't appear to be adjustable even with clicking the edit volume button. I have tried many many things and all that seems to work is extracting the audio from both clips that are next to eachother first, and then apply a transition and it seems to be ok but even doing this numerous times I have attempted to extract audio from one clip by pressing Command J or going through the menu and gotten a completely different clips audio when before I extracted the audio it was fine. Why does this happen? In addtion the titles I've added always appear pixilated? Any suggestions? I have read the entire tutorial and know how everthing is supposed to work but nothing seems to be doing what it's supposed to.

You hear a pop or gap during a title or transition in iMovie
http://www.info.apple.com/kbnum/n107945
After applying a title or transition, you may sometimes hear a pop or brief period of silence between the transition and the next clip.
A clip's volume is lower after you use an effect or title in iMovie 4
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107944
For titles, they often look bad on the Mac. Will look fine on TV. You should use simple (sans-serif) fonts like Helvetica or Arial in large sizes.

Click wheel, why does it click when its off??

Ok, so i have an ipod fifth generation (a.k.a. video ipod). When i hold the play/pause button down to turn it off, it turns off fine. But then i spin my finger on the click wheel, and it's still clicking, although its off! Why does it do this?? Is it normal??

Hi @bobby01,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I'd suggest first, checking that the printer is still connected to your network. To do that, please try Printing a Network Configuration Page. That page will indicate if the printer is still connected to your network or not.
If the printer is connected, please try this 'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the HP Printer Will Not Print document.
If the printer is not connected reconnect it following the steps in this Setting Up the Printer for a Wireless network for the HP Photosmart Wireless e-All-in-One Printer Se... document.
