Why is everything defaulting to bottom align?

Working in a file I inherited from a client, and all text boxes seem to be defaulting to bottom align. Even boxes i drag out of the library that are top aligned, suddenly become bottom aligned in the new document. The original file didn't seem to be doing this, and I don't see any global setting that would be causing this. I'm in version 9.1
Any ideas? Its driving me crazy.

With nothing selected, press Cmd/Ctrl+B to open the Text Frame Options dialog. In the Vertical Justification section, set Align: Top, (assuming Top is what you want). This won't change any pre-existing frames, but all subsequent ones should default to what ever you set.
If there are pre-existing frames you want to change, select them and do the same.

Why is everything so difficult since 'upgrading' to Maverick. I can't sync my Outlook calendar (default) with iCal or my iPad.

Why is everything so difficult since 'upgrading' to Maverick. I can't sync my Outlook calendar (default) with iCal or my iPad.
Also, I can't send pictures via Dropbox any more. Two basic necessities that I just can't get to work.

Microsoft didn't update Outlook to be Mavericks ready.
I don't really use Dropbox, but if their software doesn't work like it used to, they didn't update it for Mavericks.

Cross Tab export : Excel Data Only - Row headings are *bottom* aligned?

Hi All,
Having a problem with Crystal 11 / BOXI.
I have a Cross Tab working fine that has four Row groupings (labels on the left).
In Preview mode, it looks as expected. Row #1 label appears on line 1. Row #1 label shows blank on line 2,3,4 etc until it is ready to change.
The organization of the Row group is further made clear by a nice box that spans multiple rows. The Row label appears at the TOP of this box as you might expect.
In Excel-Data Only format, there is a problem. (I saved, scheduled, and ran on BO XI Enterprise CMC console.) The Excel file shows the Row 1 labels without any box (that's OK as it is "data only") however the text is bottom aligned. So the first label does not appear until the final row of the grouping.
Same thing is happening with Row 2, 3 groupings, they are all bottom aligned.
It's confusing for the users who would expect the Row grouping labels to be all top-aligned.
I have searched the forums and support site and read all technotes. I also tried several things including:
Format Field for Row#1 Name, choosing Left/Right/Center horizontal alignment (where is the same for vertical??)
Within BO Enterprise, try combinations of options under Excel - Data Only : export formatting, maintain relative object position, maintain column alignment, use options saved with report, etc.
Any ideas? Is there a way to force a top-alignment programmatically, for Excel Data Only output?
Help appreciated !

I found the answer to this question with help from SAP Support.
In the Cross-Tab Expert, Customize Style tab, click "Column Totals on Top".
Then, the Excel Data Only report will show the row titles Top-aligned for the row group.

Bottom align menu on public site using CSS

I am working on the design of a public site and am attempting to get the navbar menu to bottom align so that it sits neatly
on top of the content zone below and is bottom aligned with my logo. I'd like to accomplish this using CSS. You can see the public site here to get an idea of what I'm trying to accomplish: www.threebearsrealty.com
I've already determined that I can use the css below to align the logo and text on top of the slider zone, but it then cuts off the top of the logo.
.navbar-header {margin-top: -60px !important;} //aligns logo and txt and menu, but cuts off top of the logo

Hi,
According to your description, you might want to bottom align the logo and the navigation menu without cutting off the top of the logo.
As a workaround, you can set the “margin-top” attribute of the navigation menu to lower it to align the logo.
You can apply a CSS rule(this highlighted part in yellow) like this and the page would look as below:

JTabbedPane vertical tab text bottom alignment

In the following example, how can we have the tab component labels ("test" and "test test") bottom aligned ?
Note that it also uses this class: [http://www.camick.com/java/source/VerticalLabelUI.java]
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class NewJFrame extends JFrame {
    private JTabbedPane pane;
    public NewJFrame() {
        //http://www.camick.com/java/source/VerticalLabelUI.java
        VerticalLabelUI ui = new VerticalLabelUI();
        pane = new JTabbedPane();
        pane.setUI(new MyUI());
        setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        getContentPane().add(pane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
        setSize(400, 300);
        setLocationRelativeTo(null);
        pane.addTab("tab1", new JLabel("Test1"));
        pane.addTab("tab2", new JLabel("Test2"));
        JLabel labelTab = new JLabel("<html><font color=red>Test");
        labelTab.setUI(ui);
        labelTab.setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.LEFT);
        pane.setTabComponentAt(0, labelTab);
        labelTab = new JLabel("<html><font color=red>Test Test");
        labelTab.setUI(ui);
        labelTab.setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.LEFT);
        pane.setTabComponentAt(1, labelTab);
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                new NewJFrame().setVisible(true);
}Note that I tried already to override BasicTabbedPaneUI.layoutLabel(), playing around with SwingUtilities.layoutCompoundLabel() text alignment parameters without anything happening on screen.

Note that it also uses this classI have that class, but where to I get MyUI? Anyhow. After commenting out the line I couldn't compile, I could see the problem isn't with where the text is being placed in the label but rather where the label is being positioned on the tab. One way out is for all your labels to have the same preferredSize.height.import darrylbu.plaf.vertical.VerticalLabelUI;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;

    int height = 0;
    for (JLabel tabLabel : tabLabels) {
      tabLabel.setUI(ui);
      height = Math.max(height, tabLabel.getPreferredSize().height);
    System.out.println(height);
    for (int i = 0; i < tabLabels.length; i++) {

Trying to bottom align a formula field column header

Hello, I am using CR 2008 and Edge 3.1. I have 5 formula column headers that are designed to hold four lines of text with 10 characters per line with the font that we have chosen. The text for each column heading comes from a parameter field. I am trying to bottom align the text and it works in CR 2008 but when I load the report into the Enterprise and run it I do not get the same results. Here is my code for the Column 1 Header:
If length({?Col1 Header}) > 30 Then
    formula = {?Col1 Header}
ElseIf length({?Col1 Header}) > 20 Then
    formula = Chr(13) + {?Col1 Header}
ElseIf length({?Col1 Header}) > 10 Then
    formula = Chr(13) + Chr(13) + {?Col1 Header}
Else
    formula = Chr(13) + Chr(13) + Chr(13) + {?Col1 Header}
End If
I have the same formula for all 5 columns except the other 4 are reading their respective column prompt, ie: {?Col2 Header} for column 2. I changed the number of returns for testing purposes in columns 2, 3 and 4 to step up what was printed in each column. So I put the same thing in each column header: Qtr 4 2009. When I print in CR 2008 column 1 prints in the desired location, at the bottom of the formula field, the fourth line. I changed the code in column 2 by taking away one of the carriage returns from the Else part of the code and the text prints on the third line as it should. In column three I took away another carriage return from the Else part and the text prints on line two and with no carriage returns in the Else part of the code in column 4 the text prints at the top of the field. Exactly what I want.
What happens when I save the report in the Enterprise and run it is that columns 2, 3 and 4 have the desired results but there is nothing in column header 1. I have absolutely no idea of how to fix this because it runs as desired locally.
Does anybody have any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Carl,
The report is being created from a VS .NET 2005 program that scedules the report to run immediately. I just use Infoview to look at the report after it has finished running. Here is the part of the VS code that tells it how to print:
Dim rfo As ReportFormatOptions = myreport.ReportFormatOptions
        rfo.Format = CeReportFormat.ceFormatPDF
        rfo.PDFFormat.ExportAllPages = True
        query = "SELECT SI_DEST_SCHEDULEOPTIONS, SI_PROGID FROM CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS " & _
            "WHERE SI_PARENTID=29 AND SI_NAME='CrystalEnterprise.DiskUnmanaged'"
        Dim destinationInfoObjects As InfoObjects = myInfoStore.Query(query)
        myInfoObject = destinationInfoObjects(1)
        Dim destinationPlugIn As DestinationPlugin = CType(myInfoObject, DestinationPlugin)
        Dim diskUnmanaged As DiskUnmanaged = CType(destinationPlugIn, DiskUnmanaged)
        Dim destinationOptions As DestinationOptions = diskUnmanaged.ScheduleOptions
        Dim diskUnmanagedOptions As New DiskUnmanagedOptions(destinationOptions)
        Dim strFile As String = "E:\BOBJ Reports\" & Environment.UserName.ToString & "\"
        strFile = strFile & strDeptName & ".pdf"
        diskUnmanagedOptions.DestinationFiles.Add(strFile)
        mySchedulingInfo.Destination.SetFromPlugin(diskUnmanaged)
        myInfoStore.Schedule(myInfoObjects)
        myEnterpriseSession.Logoff()
        myEnterpriseSession.Dispose()
I went into InfoView though and looked at how you did it above. When I go to Format->Format Options I do not have an "Adobe Acrobat" option. I have twelve options, one of which is "PDF".
Under Print Settings I could not find a "None" option anywhere no matter which of the radio buttons, checkboxes or listboxes that I chose.
Do I need to add Adobe Acrobat/Adobe PDF as a printer option in Edge somewhere or is my only option always going to be "PDF"?

EPub export question -- How to bottom-align a page

Hi,
In a printed book, the text on the copyright page is often
bottom-aligned, so the last line of the copyright info sits on the
bottom margin of the page.
I'm wondering if there's any simple way of doing that when exporting to
ePub. The copryight text is short enough so that it will usually all fit
on the viewer's screen (unless the screen is very small), and I'm
looking for a way to have that text bottom-aligned.
And ideas?
Thanks,
Ariel

Right -- that's what I've been doing -- just a separate page. But it
bothers me a little, sitting there at the top like that. Maybe it's just
because I'm so familiar with it at the bottom of a page in a regular book.
I wonder if there's some way of doing something with a "div" element?

Help! Why did everything disappear?

I was changing the fill on a shape I drew on a new layer, when suddenly everything I had done before disappeared and I now have only one layer with one frame. What happened?? And can I get everything back? I had a layer with a static photo, a layer with a symbol and simple motion tween (swoop in from left), and a third layer I was working on. There were 36 frames in the file. Now, Layer 1 (with one frame) has the photo and the shape showing. I've been all over the forums and support looking for a clue. Can anyone help me? Thanks!!

Hi Matt!
Thank you so much for replying to my question I¹ll be able to go back to
my Flash project later this evening, and I¹ll be able to answer these
questions. Is there some reason that two or three layers would disappear
and only Layer 1 would remain? Is there a ³flatten² type command like in
Photoshop? Thanks again!

Subject: Help! Why did everything disappear?
Were you working on the tween inside of an object? It sounds like you have
an object that has 36 frame that's sitting on frame 1 of the timeline. Whe
n you were manipulating your tween, or shape, or whatever on layer 3, you
clicked out of your object and are just looking at your main timeline.
If you deleted the graphic object, you may have deleted the work you did...
Can you name the files in your library, the type of object they are, and a
description of what each object contains?

GBK is obsolete in China.
UTF-8 is reasonable for modern computer.

Why is everything in my playback monitor blown up (by 200% or so?), and why is it showing as 4:3?

Why is everything in my playback monitor blown up (by 200% or so?), and why is it showing as 4:3? I imported mxf files that show up fine in the preview monitor, but when edited into the timeline they now suddenly appear super blown up; there is a guy in a mid-shot interview situation, but now I only see his arm. Perhaps I hit a wrong button by accident, but how can I resolve this? ALso, whether it's the same issue or whether it is unrelated I don't know, but in the playback monitor the aspect ratio seems 4:3; why is that? Any idea, on either topic, anyone? Thank you!!!!! I appreciate your help!!

Why do certain websites default to bottom of page upon opening?

When I am opening up sites like REI.com and mountainhardwear.com the web page defaults to the bottom of the page. It only happens on certain websites. I can open gmail, hotmail, amazon - and it stays at the top of the page.

And.... I reverted to Firefox v 11.0 and the problem disappeared. So Mozilla needs to address this issue with javascript before releasing v 13. Version 12 is a no-go for me. Not sure what the exact cause is, but it's a problem in 12, not 11, so something was changed that needs to be fixed.

Why, oh why, does everything centre so well in IE, but not Safari or Firefox?!

Hello, I'm tearing my hair out, please help before I go bald. I have a stripy background, and a centred div on top containing a white box (#DropShadow). All worked fine in IE, Safari & FF. Now i've added my menu which is a div with a table and images inside, it stops being centred in Safari and FF, but works perfectly in IE! Can anyone help? Have pasted all code below as have no idea what the cause is! Thanks.

To add a bit more to what Snakeyze said, you don't need positioning at all. Default CSS positioning which is unspecified or static is all that 's required for 98% of layouts.
To center your page, you need 3 things:
1) a valid document type declaration on the top line of your markup -- DW does this for you when you create a new page,
2) a container width in pixels, ems or %,
3) a margin-left and margin-right of 'auto' (browser default).
body {
width: 1000px; /**adjust as req'd**/
margin: 0 auto; /**with width, this centers page**/
background: url(../images/Background.gif);
#DropShadow {
background: url(../images/WhiteBackground.png) center bottom no-repeat;
min-height: 630px; /**height limits container height, if needed use min-height**/
width: 800px;
#Menu {
margin:0;
padding:0;
width: 270px;
background-color: #FC0;

Mail Attachment window defaulting to bottom file

When attaching a document to an email, the window opens up and defaults to the bottom file, the oldest.
This only happens in Mail. Does this happen to anybody else?

On my machine a single click on a Word document in an email opens the Word doc, no double click required. I can see the Word icon before I click on it, it is not just a generic icon.
I can also right click and select the application, like you suggest you should be able to do.
Not sure why it does not work for you though as there are no settings in Mail that I can see that would affect it.

Why does the top and bottom of my clips get cut off?

Hi, I'm new to iMovie and I've encountered an annoying problem. I imported all my movie files from my flash drive without any issues. I dragged a clip from the section with all the clips to the play reel. I previewed the clip, both normal screen and full screen, and both times the top and bottom of the clip was cut off. I tried it again with different clips but the same thing kept happening? Can anyone tell me why this happens because my head keeps getting cut off and I don't like it one bit.

First, you can go into File/Project Preferences and adjust the aspect ratio of your project to either widescreen (16:9) or standard (4:3), to match your footage.
You can combine footage that is widescreen and standard in the same project. In this case, you have to tell imovie how to handle the clips that do not fit the overall project aspect ratio. To do this, you can select a clip in your project and use the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool. If you select FIT, it will preserve the whole frame by inserting black bars (letterboxing). If you select CROP it will cut off the top and bottom. You can select the default for this in Project Properties.

Why is everything defaulting to bottom align?
