original title: the desktop icon text box

The text under my desktop icons are highlighted in a blue rectangle.  How do I get the highlighted blue and rectangle to disappear?  It was clear a few days ago.

Do a net search for "icons transparent Alan Edwards" and you will always find the answer for this quickly.  Here is the answer to the problem:

1. Control Panel-System-Advanced-Performance settings.
Check "Shadows fall to use the desktop icon labels" on the display
Effects tab.

2 - Click on Desktop - "arrange icons by" and ensure the lock Web
items is disabled.

3. transparency will not work if you have the web content on your desktop.
Control panel - display properties Desktop tab - customize the Office-
Web tab, clear all the check boxes.

4. ensure that the wallpaper is an image file no HTML.

  • objects (lines) and text boxes are not able to make larger or smaller

    first: for no reason at all, all my text boxes are now implemented in the text block.  I don't know how that lit.  When I go to 'type '.

    and try to choose "threaded text" it won't allow me to select - it is not highlighted.  So I have no idea

    How to disable this option.  Now, I can't stretch my text boxes depending on what is in them - IE: make bigger or smaller, that is to say: there's only two boxes hanging out - one on each side of the text box and they allow me to drag to enlarge the box - only to move the whole box (before there were 4 boxes to manipulate the size of the text box - a on every corner - now, there only two) and this seems to apply

    in many other objects now.  When I draw a line, I have to make sure that the line is the exact right size because once I have draw - it will not allow me to make it larger or smaller - it only allows me to move it to a different location - I don't understand what's going on

  • Hi, how to do text jumps automatically down to the next text box when the text box area runs?

    Hello

    I tried to figure out how to get the type u to text in a text box automatically jump down to that underneath the text box area runs. I have some specific lines that I wish ppl in my PDF enter their information on. But I can't seem to manage get text, as executions of box of text box, to jump to the next line.

    That should be done with JavaScript in AcroForms. AcroForms don't have such a device built in. Dynamic form fields can be created by LiveCycle Designer, but it is an additional cost.

  • Text boxes are not displayed when published

    When I publish my Captivate using the htm option, many of the text boxes are not displayed. They are all transparent style with the Arial font. A display and others are not. I compared those who appear with those who do not and do notice no difference at all. When I preview the slide it works, but after the release of a film text boxes are not displayed. I can't find all the resources for this problem. Please help if possible... Thank you.

    Work around: change a text box in your file.
    Make one change - as balance text - and click 'apply to all '. "and click OK.
    Then go to the change of the menu drop down and select "Cancel".
    This will not solve the problem.

  • The desktop icons and taskbar are at least three minutes to load when I start the computer.

    Original title: problem with the desktop icons

    All of a sudden when I start my computer, the icons on the desktop and icons at the bottom of the clock of the take at least three minutes to load, and before that time, they used to load in a few seconds.  Also, I have no problem with the computer start.  Any help to solve this problem will be greatly appreciated.

    According to the specifications of your system, hard drives on your system are disks IDE (not the SATA drives).

    Sometimes the Interface IDE mode can change from DMA mode to PIO mode and when that happens, things sudden. run very slowly, but it is easy to check and adjust if you need to.

    Here's how:

    If you are using IDE drives, use Device Manager to check the channel Transfer Mode IDE is set to something like DMA if available (depends on your hardware) and the slow PIO mode.
      
    Don't forget: PIO is the slowest, DMA is faster.

    It is easy to check and usually easy to fix and the mode would not have changed in itself, so if she changed to PIO, change it to DMA, and then understand why it changed and fix it.

    To launch the Device Manager console, click Start, run and enter in the box:

    %SystemRoot%\System32\devmgmt.msc

    Click OK.

    Expand the section controller IDE / ATA to see your IDE channels. Each right click and choose Properties for each channel that has a tab advanced settings, determine the Transfer Mode. There are usually 4 channels to check in a desktop computer, maybe less for laptops.

    Faster selection will always be a kind of selection DMA (usually: DMA DMA5, UDMA, etc.).  If it is PIO, change it to DMA.
      
    If you are unsure of what you see after return of help and advice.
      
    If you make settings, restart and check the settings again to make sure that any change stick.

  • desktop icons covered by a blue screen with the white question mark

    original title; Desktop icons

    My desktop icons have a blue circle with a white question mark hide them.  How can I get rid of them?

    My desktop icons have a blue circle with a white question mark hide them.

    These are icons by programs such as Norton 360 backup and are used to indicate certain conditions such as the status of the backup. You must go into the program generating overlays and disable this setting. In the case of Norton that would be settings in the main window and then uncheck the backup status overlays.
  • Duplicate text boxes are created when you use edit in the browser

    I recently launched a site to a client which is hosted by a 3rd party host. We used in the edition browser to update his page "dishes of the day. For the most part, it went well, but twice after the changes have been made, it seems that there is a text box double sitting directly on top of the other. (see below) This happens on the mobile site as well as the desktop version.

    When I merge the changes into the file of Muse, it's not an extra box here. Usually, I'm able to fix it easily through Muse, but the idea was that the customer would be able to manage the daily updates on their own.

    Also, when I merge the files in Muse, he asked to merge the changes that nobody does (for example - deleting a space in the navigation bar). The customer insists on the fact that they don't touch these areas.

    Can anyone offer ideas why this is happening and what we can do to prevent it?

    Thank you!

    We found the problem and are working on the release of a patch in our next version of patch.

    The problem is after the first edition, the 2nd time that a user tries to modify the same block of text THAT BIE incorrectly analyzes the file due to some space elimination that's happened since the first publication. This problem does not seem to be widespread at this time, because it seems to depend on a having a block of text next sibling.

  • Text boxes are connected?

    I spread at least a part of the text boxes on the page seem to be connected to form any. If I type something in a text box, the other TextBox moves downwards. They are not grouped.
    It's terrible, if my client does in the Assembly browser - then everything is misaligned.

    Can you help me?

    Thank you!

    What you can do to solve the problem, it is to increase the size of your text box, pull it completely to the bottom of your image slideshow, as long as the text flow beyond the below text box will not move.

  • Acrobat 11 - text boxes are truncated

    I saved a number of documents Word 2007/2010 in PDF format and then grouped into a single PDF. The original Word documents contained several text boxes. Although individual Word documents that have been saved in PDF format are very good, and the combined document looks very good as well, sometimes errors occurred.

    I printed the document to my internal printer and everything was fine. I used WeTransfer transfer the file to a Publisher.

    You create this PDF file in Word using the PDFMaker add-in under the Acrobat Ribbon?

    I think that the problem you are having is associated with the original font is not integrated - that fits into this last screenshot. You do not have the embedded Times NewRoman (italic) police and it's one that is endangered.
