Why when I switch between a centre-aligned stroke and fill do my anchor points move?
Hi there, I've been using Illustrator for many years and never noticed this happen before when I fill a shape - can anyone explain why this is happening?
I'm drawing a logo using a centre-aligned stroke, rounded rectangle and another stroked path merged together to make my logo outline....like this...
....and when I change my centre-aligned stroke from a stroke to a fill and back again (to make the shape solid black), the anchor points of my shape move.....after about 10 time so fswitching between fill and stroke, fill and stroke etc my paths look like this....
Why is this happening??? It doesn't do this when I use a stroke aligned to the outside or inside of the path - just when the storoke is aligned to the centre of the path? CAnanyone explain why this happens? what it going on here?
-thanks in advance!

No I don't mean 'outlining' a stroke - all I'm doing is changing a stroke'd box to a fill and back again using the 'Swap fill and stroke" button on the main pallet.
When my (rounded rectangle) path has a stroke applied to it, and it has the stroke aligned to the centre of the path, the anchor points of a rounded rectangle move slightly every time I swap from a filled shape to a stroked shape.
If I apply a stroke to a path (again - a rounded rectangle) that has the stroke aligned to the outside or inside of the path, then the anchor points do not move - however many times I swap between fill and stroke.
I've been wondering why when I re-apply a stroke to a filled object (and that stroke is alinged to the centre of the path) - I get slight movement with the anchor points (do it alot of times and it can really mess with rounded corners).
Draw a rounded square, apply a stroke to it (a center aligned stroke), click the 'swap fill and stroke' button (shift + x) a few times, watch the box move slightly every time you click.

Is there any event that triggers when you switch between components?
is there any event that triggers when you switch between components?
like for example... when i switch between components, i need a function to fire everytime i switch...
ive tried show, hide, and initialize... and none of them work...
any ideas or help is greately appretiated!!Depends on what you are trying to do,
you have mouseover and mouseout and mouseclick events which you can use on the component and write code to deal with what you want to happen when you change focus. You have keypress event which would allow you to monitor tabbing between components, remember that in most events the currentTarget and target values will give you the information you need to handle component interaction.
so
[Bindable] private var CurrentObject: Object; <------- use this as a pointer to what ever object you are currently focused on or just to indicate things have changed
addeventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,myCompponentSwap);
protected function myComponentSwap(e:event): void
if (CurrentObject !=e.currentTarget && CurrentObject != null)
do what you want becuase a component switch just happened
CurrentObject = e.currentTarget;
Hope this gets you started.

When I plug in my monitor using a thunderbolt to hdmi cable I would like to use my moitor as a second display, which i can do, but then when i switch between full screen apps on my mac it changes what i have on my monitor to a canvas background. Is there a way to fix the display on my monitor so that it will always be accesable?
Apple:
This is how it "Should" work.
Each display should be treated as it own desktop. If you swipe on a desktop it should swipe through the hidden screens/displays. If your a user with multi displays connected to your Mac, you could have "Full Screen" Apps, Dashboard, Mission Control, and etc available to swipe on each of your connected displays.
Display 1...swipe, swipe... mouse over to Display 2... swipe swipe swipe... oh.. Display 3, swipe! All set for work or play!
This would be a well received "Feature" for the Worlds Most Advanced Operating System.
Cheers
I have seen apps (like MPlayerX and VLC) have their own "built in" workaround for the full-screen problems on multi-displays. -
When I switch between calls, how can I put some mu...
Hello.
When I switch between calls, how can I put some music to the person that is wainting.
I have a N70. And, frequently when I have a call somebody calls me. What I use to do is to put one of then in hold while I'm finishing one of the calls.
I would like to put music playing to the person that is wainting/ is holding the call.
Is it possible?
MarcoI don't think it's possible to keep sending audio while a call is on Hold.
So I don't think you can do that.
640K Should be enough for everybody

the background behind my pages has turned black, how do i get it to go back to grey? i have switched between preview, normal, bleed, slug and presentation and closed and opened in design and it is still black. I can't imagine layouts with the black background please help!
or maybe the interface has been set to Dark?
Go to Preferences > Interface tab, choose Light from Color Theme dropdown on Apearance section (upper part of the window) -
Does anyone know why- when I import a one minute video project into Final Cut X from I Movie the resolution that looked alright full screen in I Movie instantly becomes worst on full screen in Final Cut X...but clear again when I stop it to still position?
I'm new to video editing but I think I recall seeing an option in FCPX which lets you choose the video quality for the preview window. I think the window reduces the quality when playing back for performance reasons and so perhaps that is why it seems to have less quality when moved over to FCPX? Just a possibility, I'm sure one of the more experienced users can confirm or deny this theory.

Why when someone sends me a picture or video and i reply to it, my reply goes to everybody that originally was sent the picture.
This is because group messaging is turned on. This means that when you send a text to multiple people they can see who it was sent to. Any response from any of those people will be to sent everybody on the text sorta like CC on an email. To change this go to Settings>Messages>Group Messaging. If you turn it off you WILL be able to send groups messages but the people you send it to won't see who you sent it to sorta like BCC on email.

If I have one tab open at a site, and then open a new tab to a different website, when I click back on my other tab the screen is a blank gray color and I have to refresh it to get the site back. This happens almost every time I switch between my open tabs, no matter which tab I am going back to. I am not having this problem in any other browsers. This has only started happening in the last couple of months and it has gotten really annoying. Does anyone know how I can stop this?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.<br />
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") -
Why does Photoshop CC keep crashing when I switch between pictures?
I just switched to Photoshop CC from CS4 and am having frequent troubles with it crashing. The problem seems to occur when I have 10-15 different pictures open and am combining them into a collage. When I switch back and forth between the windows, CC locks up and shuts down.

I am running on Mac, OS X 10.9.1 .
When using Firefox if I switch between tabs or open a new tab from a link the page will jump down about 20 lines. This does not happen on all websites. Most notably on Facebook, but a bunch of other sites do it as well.
Help would be nice.

Why is the image on my screen changing when I switch between the library and develop modules?
I've noticed in the past couple of days that I will be refining an image in the develop module, feel I've gotten it the way I want it to look, and then switch back to the library module to export. When I do so, I notice the colors are quite different than they were just a second ago in the develop module. When I switch back to the develop module, it goes back to the way it looked in the develop module. How might I fix this?
Is what you see in Library the original, camera-embedded preview or is it just a messed up version of the LR-rendering? You can test this by making a significant change to an image with the problem (Exposure -4 or Saturation +100) and see if the Library Preview also darkens (or the colors saturate) significantly or not. You might also try explicitly telling LR to recompute the Standard then the 1:1 preview to see if either of those show up in Library.
If the Library view never shows any LR adjustments and is always the camera-embedded JPG preview or a LR-preview from some days ago that never changes no matter what you do in Develop, now, then your Previews cache is likely corrupted and the entire should probably be deleted so LR can rebuild them. The previews folder is called catalogname Previews.lrdata and is a subfolder of where your catalog file (.lrcat) is stored. You can location your catalog by going to the General tab in the Catalog Preferences and clicking the Locate button. You should exit LR before trying to delete the Previews subfolder and make sure you’re not deleting the catalog or backups folder, just the folder with Previews.lrdata in the name.
If the Library view just shows a different-looking version of the LR adjustments then perhaps something is wrong with the display-driver or the monitor’s color profile.
