CS2 character Control Panel of formatting - character size is locked

Hello

I'm not sure how it happened, but the arrow buttons on my character at the top of the screen control panel allowing you to increase the size of your font one point at a time are gray. The drop-down list (which allows you to select 6 pt, pt 8, etc.) works very well and the adjustmet of font size in the character window works fine. I think I may be acceidentally locked something down, but for the life of me I can't understand that. This applies to all my documents, old and new.

Hope I'm making sense. Thanks in advance for any help.

No, I think you're going in Edition > Preferences

What you need to do, is to close indesign, then when you launch it hold CTRL (CMD) ALT SHIFT and replace the application's preferences.

It is separated from the edition > Preferences

They really should name them separately, but they do not.

It would also be useful, I think that, on the Help menu, there's a thing said to reset the preferences and made the renunciation and raises for you. But they do not.

  • Redefine the character Format - font/size

    This question was asked back in the beginning of ' 09 ("aught 9 ' as the former toady will probably tell someday). It seems that there is a work around at the time. I wonder if advanced in years and versions of software have given rise to another method.

    I want to do exactly as the opus... updated styles para (body) to a smaller font size. I want to emphasis and character formats corresponding to my new [small] para format size body similar to now. Is it possible to do without the addition of a new character format and do a find/replce between old and new formats?

    I'm in FrameMaker 11.0.1

    Redefine the character format

    March 30, 2009 12:14 AM

    Hello

    I need to change a character format which is currently 10pt Courier to adapt the size of the police of underlying paragraph format, for example Courier 12pt to the body of the text and Courier 10pt to table text, Courier 9 pt bottom and so on.

    When I update the format of size set to according to East, existing to stay at 10 PT, instances which is consequent that the text was before 10pt. Is it possible to change the format to use the font size to default paragraph for all existing instances with less effort than to apply formats again to all instances?

    With the help of FM 8.0p277 on Windows XP.

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    It works perfectly and solved the problem. Thank you, Ron.

    Looks like the size was precise defined in the tag of character instead of AsIs. In this case, you shoot yourself in the foot by changing the size of paratag.

    If you have already changed your paragraph tags and to see what happened, then you have some cleaning to do.

    What will work is, in an instance of the tagged content, explicitly change the size in designer character for what is necessary, and then click all to update. Then update this definition of new character tag to be AsIs for the font size (and most of the other features) and remove the replacements. The tagged content should now change if you change the paratag font sizes.

    Repeat for the other character tags.

    However, if you have not done anything yet, then in the Character Designer of simply change all relevant tags to have a size of AsIs and update everything to remove overrides. Nothing has to change visually at this stage. Then, when you change the font size of paratag, character tags will now change size as a result.

  • Dynamically adjust the size of table control panel

    Hello

    I have a combo box control that I drag within a table.

    Since my request depends on the size of the initialized array, I'm having a problem with the car, adjust the number of items to display on the control panel.

    Say for example, I wanted to have 4 zones of drop-down list on my table, I drag the table to show the 4 combo boxes.

    The problem is that if I wanted to change this moment of execution at 2 or 6 elements, it still shows 4 items in the control.

    Is there a way to adjust based on the number of items?

  • Out of control control panel

    The Panel in my InDesign CS5 will not respond. In a document, new or old, when I try to change the type of police, size or any other thing in the control panel there is no response. Can only make changes in the drop-down above the control panel (Type > fonts or Type > size etc.) No response in the open window of character or the other.  I have been a user of InDesign for years but have never encountered such a problem before. Any ideas?

  • Windows Search / Immersive Control Panel / AppData Error Message

    I have a new laptop HP Envy delivered pre-installed with Windows 8.1 on a hard drive traditional.

    Immediately on starting it the first time, I connected a SSD to the laptop via a USB cable and used imaging software to drive provided by Samsung to the HARD whole to the new/empty SSD disk image.

    Returned & replaced the HDD SSD w / in 1 Bay drive, followed by placing the original HARD drive (but now secondary) in the 2 Bay drive.

    I wanted to re - map the 'My Documents' folder on the SSD to store files in this folder on the secondary HARD drive, so I remapped this ("c:\users\Brad\Documents") folder to point to 'f:\users\Brad\Documents' instead.

    "So move on, for some reason, when I go to the desktop search item and try, for example, to search for"Remove Apps", which translates by he find something like"Uninstalling apps to save hard drive space"or something like that, and I click on uninstall apps to save hard disk space", I get a message similar to the following :

    [Window title]
    C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Packages\windows.immersivecontrolpanelcw5n1h2txyewy\LocalState\Indexed\Settings\en-US\Classic{4026492f-2f69-46b8-b9bf-5654fc07e423}.settingcontent-ms
    [Content]
    Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

    I'm not sitting on my laptop right now, but I found the info. top online and there are very close to the error msg. I get, except that instead of "c:\Users\bmccollum\AppData\...". ", the title of the GMS. I get begins with "f:\Users\bmccollum\AppData\...". ». I don't remember remapping anywhere at all outside the location of 'My Documents', then why is this research activity trying to seek the "AppData" folder on my hard drive secondary now?

    This same error msg occurs when I am looking for another couple of points, but above all what I find and click work.

    For two items that I seek and I click on the element are, and I get this error message, if I go to the elements of the "long way" but just clicking 'Control Panel' or anything else and keep them on the street from there, items open fine, it's just when I try to click on a few items after that I looked for something they are not w / the same error msg from above.

    I searched around online and have tried the trick of "rebuild indexes" and this seems to fix errors related to research for just a little, then a few minutes later I can look for the same thing that was previously the 'Immersive Control Panel' error and bam, it is back again with this similar to one already mentioned msg.

    Something seems to be pointing to "AppData" being on my drive 'f' (secondary) when I don't think I moved anything but my "my documents" of primary transmission 'c' to secondary drive "f".

    I'm quite lost. Any other ideas on what may be the cause/solution for this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hey @zildjian ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you are having problems with the paths to files on your Envy laptop.

    The most important thing here is that looks like you have cloned the drive, but not the format of the original HARD disk. This will cause a plethora of problems because you now have 2 boot managers and repositories of operating system file. Windows will have a fit over this.

    I suggest copy important information from the HARD drive to an external drive or for SSD and formatting the drive. This will wipe the Windows installation and free up additional space. From there, you can create a Documents folder and map the folder accordingly.

    You remap F:\Users\Brad\Documents by adding it to the document library or did you use the move feature tab in the properties of the Documents folder location?

    Please try the original function of HARD drive and test development shaped.

  • Cannot open Control Panel

    Original title: Control Panel

    Windows XP; I think there a newer version through updates with service pack 3 installed.

    I can't add or remove programs; access to cheque accounts or user control panel system, whenever I try, I get the following error.

    I don't know how to rename. When I try to search for it, it comes up with nothing. It is as if it is lost or dumped and I don't know how to get it back. Do I have to have this file in particular?

    I can't even format my hard drive and reinstall Windows XP

    (Windows cannot find 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe'.  Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button and then click Search).

    When you try to open a control panel applet, you see a message like this:

    Control Panel
    Windows cannot find 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe '.  Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again.  To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click search.

    As the rundll32.exe file is one of 3498 Windows File Protection files handles, should never be missing.

    If the file is actually missing, it was probably quarantined (actually deleted) programmatically your antivirus or anti-malware not specified that you use.

    You can look in the c:\windows\system32 folder and see if the file is actually missing or not, and if you find that it is missing, you must replace it somehow.

    Despite the repeated Microsoft committed advice of 'experts' Support Engineer to run the System File Checker, run sfc/scannow won't help you and it does not replace the missing file.  That's not what sfc/scannow does it's not how it works and it's not what it is for.

    Here's what works :

    I downloaded a copy of XP Pro SP3 file you need on my SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).

    You can download it and when you do, place a copy of the file in these folders (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):

    c:\Windows\System32
    c:\Windows\System32\dllcache (this is where XP keeps backups of important files).

    Here is the link to my SkyDrive and you can get the file you need here:

    https://SkyDrive.live.com/?CID=6a7e789cab1d6f39&ID=6A7E789CAB1D6F39! 311

    When you see the files available for download, you can not see the file extension (.exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, .zip, etc.), but when download you them they will have the right extension.

    When you download the file (especially if you use Internet Explorer), when you get a chance to save the file, your browser is unable to save the file with an extension (by example, .exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, .zip, etc) then you will need to manually add the extension appropriate to the file when you download the file before you save it.

    You can download the file without the extension, and then rename the file to add the appropriate extension.  You do not want to use a file called rundll32 when the name of the file should really be called rundll32.exe (if the downloaded file has no extension, you will need to change the name of the file to add the appropriate extension to make it work.

    You then put the downloaded files in the correct folders on your system.

  • How can I remove a duplicate 'Add or remove programs"icon in the control panel?

    Whenever I open the Control Panel on my computer, I see two icons "Add or Remove Programs". How can I fix this problem?

    Some of what you see in the Panel comes from Control Panel Extension files found in the folder c:\windows\system32 (assuming that XP is installed on your C drive).  If you look at our you will find some there. CPL files and those who do a lot of what you see in the Panel.

    The applet Add / Remove programs you see displayed in the Panel appears because there is a file there called:

    appwiz.cpl

    If you go to c:\windows\system32 and copy the appwiz.cpl file and call the copy something like jose.cpl then go to control panel, you will see so two addition / deletion of programs listed (and they both work).  Non believers, try it.

    If you see two copies of add or remove programs in Control Panel, both work?

    I don't know what your problem is exactly or how it got that way, but if you use the Windows Explorer and browse to c:\windows\system32 folder, and then click search for .cpl, you will get a list of all the .cpl in this folder files (and maybe also see copies of backup in the dllcache folder).

    Click the size column heading to sort the. CPL files by size, then look for appwiz.cpl in the list and then look for another. CPL file above or below that has the same size and date than the appwiz.cpl file and see what the name of this file is (as jose.cpl).  If there is another file that is the same size and date than the appwiz.cpl, that's your problem.

    If you find it will not know what it is, you can just rename the suspicious file to something ending with an extension .cpl (like jose.xxx) and see what things look like.  If things get worse, just rename the file, the original name and seek some other idea-ers.

    If you find the file that resembles appwiz.cpl and don't know what it is, tell us what you see and that someone can help you to understand.
