Cannot select text and scroll down on any web page.

The problem is that in Firefox, other applications work fine. I've tried reseting my computer and reset Firefox start Firefox in safe mode with disabled modules. None of these things has solved the problem. Help would be appreciated.

Update:
-L'OS is Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
-The issue is not specific to Firefox, but any window full-screen (now I feel stupid for asking this question).
-Just found this bug on Launchpad report:
https://bugs.Launchpad.NET/Ubuntu/+source/Firefox/+bug/744580
The problem occurs because the scrolling down is only triggered by the pointer is what past beyond the highlight box. The problem persists as long as the windows are full-screen; scrolling should occur when the pointer of the hit the lower edge of the screen, but does not work. If the window is made smaller the pointer may move beyond its edge and allows to scroll down while highlighting. This isn't a real solution, but there is a patch available in the forum section linked above (see comment #8).

  • How to select text and be able to change the font without the text highlight color effect reverse?

    I remember being able to select the text with a certain shortcut would not show that it is actually highlighted, but it actually so, essentially the same function as selecting / highlighting just without the Visual indicator that it is highlighted / selected.

    You can change the font by selecting just different fonts in the menu drop-down of the character Panel. It will change the police without selecting text and giving you a reverse color effect.

  • Select text AND drop shadow effect

    I have a text layer which has also an effect layer shadow.

    If I have to ctrl + click on the thumbnail of the layer, as expected, it selects the text but is not also include the drop shadow layer style. I guess it's because the Ctrl clicking on the miniature mask selects the non-transparent pixels completely and drop shadow layer mask is slightly transparent?

    How can I easily select text and ALL pixels of drop shadow?

    In a Word, I want to choose only 100% transparent pixels, so I can reverse to select the 100% opaque text and < 100% pixels layer transparent drop shadow?

    Thanks for any help you can give.

    The pixels are selected; It is that ants walking delineate only the boundary between lower or greater than 50% selected. To select completely all non-transparent pixels in your shadow layer, select as you did and go quick mask mode. Make sure that the quick mask is active in the Panel layer and run the threshold with a value of 255. Return to Standard mode, and you will see ants on expanded.

  • I don't want to move to the new tab immediately when I select text and search it from the context menu.

    When I select text and right-click on it and looking for it, the new tab open and switched to immediately. I don't want that. Instead, I want to stay on the page that I am and don't want new tab to switch immediately.

    Hi Obaid.Farooq, please try the following:
    enter on: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears) and search for the preference named browser.search.context.loadInBackground. Double-click it and change its value to true.

  • D600 lag when I scroll down on the web

    I don't know that really where I class, I think it's a software problem. But my D600 accuse by I scroll to the bottom of any web page, no matter what browser I use. I use firefox as a lot of people, but he did it with IE too. I'll give a few examples of it.

    When I press the arrow down on my screen what it comes down to the usual amount, it is supposed to, but it goes like 2 pixels at a time. So instead of being instantly down to the next spot, it'll take a few seconds.

    If I click in the box below the scroll bar, it will do the same thing but at like 10 pixels, maybe that's just purely heinous.

    I don't know what kind of question is this.

  • Update of Firefox, and now all of the web pages and icons are inflated. How do I put back it as it was?

    Update of Firefox, and now all of the web pages and icons are inflated. How do I put back it as it was?

    Hello

    Firefox on Windows is now after display, scaling options that can make the biggest text on screens at high resolution.
    You can adjust the resolution of your screen.
    To change it follow these steps:

    • Type of topic: config in the Firefox address bar and hit the Enter key.
    • If the warning that this might void your warranty , click I'll be careful, I promised.
    • Search for layout.css.devPixelsPerPx

    • Double-click layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to edit its value. The default value is - 1.0 in Firefox 22 and above. Change it to 1.0 to run as in previous versions of Firefox.

    If necessary, further adjust the value of 0.1 or 0.05. Values between 1.0 and around 0.5 to reduce the size of the elements. Use a value greater than 1.0 to increase the size. For example, a value of 1.25 will increase the font size of the 125% to account for the default DPI setting in Windows 8. Check the value that you enter. Definition of a value that is too small will take everything away and too high will explode things.

    If the web pages should always be adjusted so you can watch the extension Default FullZoom Level or NoSquint .

    To adjust the font size for the user interface, you can use the extension of theme font & size changer .

    This solve your problems? Please report to us!

    Thank you.

  • I can not access the first 2 inches below the toolbar of any web page. This only happens with firefox. What I can do.

    Let's say I go to the homepage of Yahoo!. The bar is located on the top. When I use my mouse to click inside to let know that I want to type something, nothing happens. It does not seem to register that there is a part on the accessible page. This only happens with firefox and only on the first 2 inches on the web page. It also happens on any web page. I have all my updates and I also uninstalled and reinstalled. Don't know what else to do. No one I know seems to have an idea what is happening. I had a break for about a month, and then she came back.

    The extension of the Yahoo! toolbar and the extension of Babylon have been reported to cause a problem like that. Disable or uninstall the modules.

  • Why can't I access the options above the top inch of any web page.

    I can't access any "button" of any web page that I'm on the 'thumb' of the page Top. This is the part just below the toolbar. It started last week. I can't be more precise than that. That's when I noticed it. It happens on all websites I visit.

  • How to make the same effect of scrolling like Tumblr (beginning Web page) with Adobe Muse?

    How to make the same effect of scrolling like Tumblr (beginning Web page) with Adobe Muse?

    I used Adobe Muse since the day it first came out, I played with the timings and effects of scrolling a lot. Tumblr landing page scrolling is very nice, I can see why you want a similar effect. Something similar could be created using the scrolling in AdobeMuse effects, especially if you familiarize yourself with the scrolling of the transparency. Start with a color block simple try it scroll up to double speed, then add items to the next page with the scrolling transparencies. Best practical work, use layers to do this, it makes things so much easier when you need to edit the page.

    Once you have played with the effects of scroll, you will begin to note how the elements of the Tumblr page can be re-created. This will be a sharp learning curve, but very doable in Muse for a similar effect. You will have a number of layers with page elements and new blocks of color on each layer when your done, fine tweaking the movement of scrolling and timings will make perfect. Good luck.

    If not, try adding an animation on board, you can create a Web page in Adobe Edge, but again... probably much more involved learning with this option.
