YouTube widget making text shift

I have a very simple page with a text box that has words and links and I often like to add a youtube video above one of the links. When I do this, the text shifts up in the browser when it loads despite it looking fine in iWeb. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? If I rarely had to do this, I would adjust accordingly and move on, but I do this quite often and it takes a lot of unnecessary time to keep moving the widget and uploading multiple times until it looks right in the major browsers.
Chrome & Safari seem to shift the text an equal amount. Firefox is slightly different.
Is there a way to put the youtube widget inside the text box instead of on top of it?

You can turn the text box into an image by adding a drop shadow with 5% opacity. That shouldn't shift with the widget. But the text won't be available to search engines.

  • Widget Text Shifted Up

    Hello,
    The text of my widgets, the date in calendar for example, are now shifted up a bit. They can still be read, but they are too high. Other widgets are similarly affected. Anyone else see this or have a solution?
    Thanks,
    MIchael Morrison

    Just would like to say, thanks to this forum and to everyone who has been helpful to others here. I had a similar problem with my Dashboard after an Onyx Cleanup of my system and noticed my Dashboard apps with text shifted up off the baseline and made everything into outline type.
    I was about to reinstall the Dashboard until I found this thread and thanks that I did. I did turn on Helvetica Neue in the system just before the Onyx cleanup for a project so I definitely knew this thread helped me solve my issues!
    Thanks again to fellow mac users!

  • Wrapping text around YouTube widget

    Does anyone know how to get the YouTube widget to appear inline? I tried to follow the steps below, which works fine for photos, but can't get it to work with this widget. If it's not possible, is there a workaround?
    Thanks!
    To make text wrap around an object:
    Starting with an existing block of text on your webpage, place the insertion point in the text where you want the object to appear.
    By adding an item at a text insertion point, it becomes an inline object. This means text can wrap around it.
    Do one of the following:
    To add a photo, movie, or audio file, drag the file to the insertion point in the text while holding down the Command key.

    Unfortunately you can't paste a widget into a text box. The only way to get what you want is to create a transparent shape the size of the widget and insert that into the text box. Then move the widget over the transparent shape. It will appear like it's inserted into the text box.

  • YouTube Widget and SmartShapes

    Hi,
    I am using a YouTube Widget and I want to use a smartshape to introduce or set context for the video - see pic below.  The problem is that the smartshape does not show up when I F11 - view whole project.  Somehow it seems to override it.  If I take the widget out the smartshape works.  I have tried to not have the widget appear until after the smartshape but that doesn't work.  Can anyone help me clear this up?

    A single button won't work because I need to put a few sentences of text.  It looks like the z order is changed from what I have on my timeline.  Do Widgets take precedence somehow?  Is there a way around this? 

  • Z-Index / layer issues with new YouTube widget!

    Hi!
    I am experiencing a problem with the new social media "youtube" widget. I currently have two layers in my projects. It is a parallax scrolling project where the menu initially scrolls and then sticks to the top. When continuing to scroll, the embedded YouTube video widget does not scroll underneath the menu as it should but scrolls over the menu. This is strange, as the YouTube widget was placed on level 1 and the menu is on level 2. Shouldn’t the menu then always be on top? Could it be that that the new widget doesn’t set z-index correctly?
    You can view my web draft (and look at the code) here: http://www.firstlight.at
    Any help greatly appreciated!

    I was able to fix the problem and I believe this to definetly be a bug in Muse....
    In order to prevent iframed Youtube widgets to swim on top of all other Divs, I had to change the code, adding wmode="transparent" and wmode="Opaque" to the iframe class. This only works if you change all the other parameters behind the src tag from "&" to "&amp".
    Here was the original code generated by Muse. This couldnt prevent my "2nd Layer" to slip below "Layer 1".
    <iframe class="actAsDiv" width="487" height="275" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/X6GBk42nLOE?&;autoplay=0&;loop=0&;showinf o=0&;theme=dark&;color=red&;controls=0&;modestbranding=1&;start=0&;fs= 0&;iv_load_policy=3" frameborder="0"></iframe>
    Making the following changes to the code, forced the Youtube widget below all other divs again (I have hightlighted all changes to bold, so you can see the needed changes easily):
    <iframe class="actAsDiv" width="487" height="275" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/X6GBk42nLOE&am?wmode=transparent&amp;autoplay=0&amp;loop=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;theme=dark&amp;color=red&amp;controls=0&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;start=0&amp;fs=0&amp;iv_load_policy=3" frameborder="0" wmode="Opaque"></iframe>
    Make sure, that you dont miss the following change: You need to change all "&" adders to "&amp" otherwise this procedure will not work!
    After the new release, I am sure the Adobe team is working hard to bug bust the latest release. But I do hope this one will be busted soon, otherwise users using the youtube widget will have to recode Muse output everytime we make a change and this is exactly what Muse is striving to prevent (; Afterall, in Dreamweaver you could hardcode the change and it would stick!
    Hope this will be of help to someone!

  • Problem in YouTube Widget?

    Ok, so I adore my phone. Yes, there are features it's missing, but a majority will come in time. But I'm wondering if anyone's experiencing a tiny issue in the YouTube widget.
    When I go to the search area and I have text in the text field, the X button on the right of the text (the circular button with an X that deletes what's in the text field) doesn't register my touch a lot of the time. I keep touching it over and over with different fingers in different areas etc. It'll finally work after a bit of touching, but this doesn't happen in any other application. That X button works great otherwise in other apps.
    Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue. If so, I can post it in the tech support feedback and tell them to look into it.

    Well, it's only in YouTube I have the problem. I use that x in every other program: Mail, SMS, Notes, web, etc. They all work just fine. Not sure why. I just tried YouTube again and it works sometimes and doesn't others. It's really bizarre.
    Oh, well, if it's not a problem with other people maybe it'll work itself out. Not a big deal. Thanks

  • Inline YouTube widget?

    I've used the YouTube Widget to add a video to the top or bottom of a post, but what if I want it inline (i.e. in the middle of my text, so that it moves up or down as I add or remove text. With photos it's imply a matter of holding down the CMD key while dragging it in. That doesn't seem to be the case with the widget, since you have to choose it from the menu.
    Is there a way to accomplish what I want?

    No because widgets cannot be inserted into text boxes which is what you need in order to have it move with the text.

  • YouTube Widget and HD

    Questions on YouTube widget
    1) The HD button in YouTube does not show up in widget until after it has been played once, then it shows you (even if movie is stopped). Logically, the HD button should show up before the viewer 1st clicks to play. Is there a way to make the HD button always show up in widget?
    2) the HD button does not show up if widget is sized smaller than some width (say around 325px). This means the widget has to be pretty large, or the HD will never show (before, after or during playback). Is there a way around this?
    3) if you click once on the widget, the youtube plays. If you click twice (by accident?) it takes you to youtube website to play. Is there anyway to disable this double click that takes you out of your web sit to youtube?
    Thanks

    Robin ~ Glad that worked out — can you provide the URL(s) to your newly embedded HD videos?
    By the way, I noticed you've started an iWeb blog with one entry. Before you add more, you may want to consider using a dedicated blogging platform instead — problems with iWeb's blog are a recurring theme on these forums: Lost all blog entries, or all comments, or unable to publish, or unable to open iWeb, etc.
    For a success story using a non-iWeb blog hosted on WordPress, see this old thread:
    To blog or not to blog
    As an alternative to setting up a basic hyperlink to your external blog, you can link to it from iWeb's navigation bar:
    Create a blank internal page titled "Blog" (actually you can name the page whatever you want.) Then in that Blog page add an HTML Snippet with the following code:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    parent.window.location = "http://www.yourblogname.com"; // change this to your own URL
    </script>
    ...Once published, clicking on "Blog" in the navbar will immediately redirect to your external Blog page. (Thanks to Cyclosaurus for the code).

  • Is there a way to stop the text shifting between mac and pc?

    I can't believe there is still no fix to the vertical text shift issue when transferring fla's between Mac and PC's. Create an fla on a Mac put some text in it, save the file and open it on a PC and see how the text has dropped.
    Adobe please tell me I'm missing something here or at least acknowledge the problem and explain the cause.
    This problem has plagued flash for as long as I can remember. None of the other applications (Photoshop, Illustrator etc) have this problem. It wastes huge amounts of time and causes massive quality control issues especially when outsourcing work.
    We're using CS3 now and the problem is as bad as ever. It happens with all text fields and all font types.
    Please help.

    Don't get your hopes up that anyone from Adobe will see your posting.  These are user to user forums and appearances by anyone from Adobe are rare.

  • Text shifting on imposed PDF; distill vs export

    Hi experts. Please help me solve a mystery!
    Mac OS 10.7, InDesign CS5 7.0.4
    Here's the problem: I export a PDF (using modified version of the built-in X-1a PDF export preset to include bleed and crop marks)
    Fonts are embedded, no problems when preflighting in Acrobat.
    The printer imposes the file by placing my PDF into spreads in InDesign CS6 on Mac (OS unknown) and exports to PDF using unknown settings (The PDF producer is Adobe PDF Library 10.0.1).
    The imposed PDF I get back from the printer has text shifting (the PDF i send to him looks fine--no gaps).
    It looks like there are random blank spaces in the text and misaligned numbered lists. (left image, image on right shows original ID file)
    Our production person insists that my exporting the PDF is to blame and says we must use distiller for sending files to the printer.
    When I print to postscript then distill, the shifting does not occur in the imposed PDF i get back from the printer.
    Everything I have read on here for years has said the postscript/distill route is bad/old/unnecessary/proof I should get a new printer.
    Production claims fonts are not properly embedded when exporting PDF (patently false as the document info show that fonts are embedded).
    Unless I can explain, and fix the shifting type problem, I will have to stick with postscript/distilling workflow.
    (Although this is also not a guarantee--i have had the text shift/gap happen in PDFs that went through distiller. There the problem seemed to be a bullet glyph that was CID-H encoded.
    When I switched the font from a TT to PS version of the font, it used different encoding and the shifting/gap was fixed in the PDF i got back from the printer.)
    Please share your thoughts!
    Thanks.

    OK. I've gotten the original PDF files that were exported from CS5 and then placed into a new CS6 document and then exported from the OP. By the way, the problem is not limited to exported PDF, but also with PDF created by distillation of PostScript from CS5.
    I cannot replicate the problem by simply creating a new InDesign CS6 document and placing pages into the new document and exporting.
    However, I noted that some crop marks in the original CS5-exported PDF file were not in the CS6-exported file. That leads me to believe that something edited the CS6-exported PDF file. Furthermore, the CS6-exported PDF file was not only labelled as PDF/X-1a, but it also had the Trapped True key on. For exported PDF, InDesign provides no trapping function and absolutely no way of setting that trapping key in the PDF file. But Adobe Illustrator does provide the means of doing trapping and/or labeling a PDF/X file as being trapped with the Trapped True key.
    At this point, I believe that some combination of the following events occurred:
    *     The CS5 exported PDF file(s) were edited, possibly in Illustrator or with object editing in Acrobat Pro either with native tools or third party plug-ins and then resaved with the resultant PDF file(s) placed in the CS6 document. This editing may have messed up spacing of text that used ligatures, alternate characters, old style figures, etc. even though such text was not directly edited.
    *     The CS6 exported imposed spreads were subsequently opened in Illustrator or some other third party trapping engine and resaved with the Trapped True key set. In the process of resaving the file, problems per (1) above occurred.
    Conclusions:
    (1)     Whether PDF/X-1a or PDF/X-4 was used for export anywhere in this process is irrelevant. The designs in question didn't use any transparency or color management. Furthermore, no CID-encoded fonts were involved and no font name conflicts were involved. However, the fonts used in the original InDesign documents were OpenType CFF fonts with extended character sets which were in fact accessed for ligatures, superscripts, subscripts, etc.
    (2)     Previously non-disclosed steps were used in the workflow between the CS5 export and the resultant files I got to see. Using Illustrator as a PDF editor or as trapping software for PDF files in general is a possible / likely cause of the problems. If not Illustrator, then some very defective PDF workflow software for trapping and/or editing was used.
    (3)     Although InDesign is not designed as an imposition tool, the fact is that it is used for amalgamation of content such as magazines, journals, etc. where ads and other content as PDF (and other formats) is placed within InDesign pages. This appears to be working correctly and is not the source of the problem.
    The OP is dealing with problematic workflow, but not with InDesign problems.

  • Youtube widget produces videos that don't work correctly when played in iWeb

    Get a flashing video when embedding a Youtube video in an iWeb window using th Youtube widget.
    Video plays OK in Youtube.
    Used iMovie to prepare the Quicktime movie and used settings recommended for Youtube uploading.

    The YouTube widget stopped working when MobileMe was discontinued 2 years ago. The widget needed the MMe servers in order to work.
    To add a youtube video go to YouTube and get the embed code for that video.  Back in iWeb use a regular HTML widget with the embed code.

  • Muse crashes when using youtube widget?

    I am aware that this question has been asked before. But the answer provided does not solve the problem. I am using Muse 2014.1 and it seems that the problem with the YouTube widget is still there. It crashes when (1) I try to create a youtube gallery including it in a composite widget, and (2) it crashes also when I use it as a standalone widget. Any thoughts? Similar problem also with the vimeo widget -- Muse cannot create thumbnail.

    I've received the initial file and am investigating. Please send the additional files. Please also send the MuseLog.txt file from your Documents folder. It should contain a bit more information about each error you've encountered.
    This initial file appears to have a fairly involved menu that's severely corrupted. I'm attempting to surgically remove it from the file but internally many many small objects appear to be involved.
    Do you recall anything unusual that may have occured while working with a menu today? The corrupt objects all appear to have been created between 10:30 am and 6:30 pm today your time. If you're seeing this in other files, did those files start as copies of this file or with objects copied and pasted from this file, or are they completely independent?

  • YouTube widget not working in F12 preview

    Hi all,

    The best way to test You Tube (and Web Object) interactions are from a web server. I use XAMPP, it is very easy to set up. During testng, I just publish to that webserver's folder directly and check it on the browser.
