haggyabeken,

I'm afraid that you have come across the Rectangle Live bug, which is limited to MAC versions starting from 10.7 and 10.8, but not 10.9 (Mavericks), see this thread linked below.

https://forums.Adobe.com/thread/1595973

Thus, a switch for the Mavericks with a reinstall might be the way to solve it here and now.

To get around it, in each case, it is possible to develop direct Rectangles to get the normal old shaped rectangles or Pathfinder > unit, or use the scale tool.

A more permanent way round that is to create normal old shaped rectangles, after running the free script created by Pawel, see this thread with download link:

  • Resizing Auto text in a bounding box (and remove the line break)

    I have a lot of certificates of completion of the course I create (using pre-made our graphic charts).  I set up some variables from my diapers and I use a data set to shoot in the person's name, the course title and date of a CSV file.  The text 'Name' encompassing that I created is set to a specific width and height (and must stay that way) with a font size of 94,22 pt; However, some names are REALLY long and are too big for the bounding box.  They dress up.  When I run the "data fusion", I need Photoshop to automatically resize the text in the bounding box so that it is not word wrap.

    For example, "Jane Doe" fits well in the box.  However, "Johnathan Cornelius Doe" is too long, and the word encapsulates.  Instead, I want Photoshop to the long name and simply its size down to fit properly in the lack of word envelope bounding box.

    I have about 200 of them to spend in Photoshop, print and send.  I really don't want to individually open each certificate to verify this last after that I have run through.  I just batch process and print batch.

    Is there a way to do this?  Please note that I have never made any script; so if this is the way it must take, I need to explain carefully and in simple terms.

    Thank you!

    OK, try this. Save the code in a text file with the extension .jsx below. Create an action that runs the script. Then, you can use this action with the batch command.

  • Help on resizing text boxes and the General image techniques

    Using CS2.

    I have two fundamental questions.  We have to do to get the best images to vector (with text) that I can for placement in InDesign documents.  The other relates to the specificity of work with text in FW boxes.

    The easiest way for me to produce vector images has been using PowerPoint.  I do all the graphic work, and then save it as a gif file.  I don't and then cropping in a graphic (Irfanview, PS) tool insert or place the image.  As long as there is no resizing, things work fine.  I do not know how things like IPR are controlled using this technique but I'm assuming that would be also with the graphical tool.  I know that Irfanview allows the CIO to clarify when resizing.

    The problem starts to appear when the gif object is resized.  Things are distorted and I lose the freshness of the image content.  I'm certainly not an expert on the graphics but I thought either, there is no resizing (just a cropping) or 2) to work in a tool such as FW where (I guess) so I need to make 1) actual size charts PP size of the final image placed there are better abilities to resize the vector images.  My feeling (again, not an expert) is that converts the process I use for vector graphics in PP to a bitmap image in the gif and resizing does not work as well for bitmap images with respect to vector objects.  Don't I have that right?

    Go to question 2:

    Can the text boxes be resized in FW without distorting the text?  Their size is visible when initially drasing them?  Maybe spoiled by PowerPoint, I like to define the width of the vector objects (e.g. rectangle) and the width of the text it will fill at the same size.  (I know that PP has the opportunity to put borders on text boxes, but when you work in FW I need to work with 2 objects, the rectangle and the text box).  I have a wide 81px rectangle.  Can I set a text box to 81px wide without distorting the text?

    I tend to want to control the dimensions of the real object so I can get good spacial alignment.  For example, I tend to set the width of a text to an odd number of px object so that any line that comes out of the text object coincide well with the text.  I must admit that it was perhaps time for me to use a different technique in FW (for example an alignment more than objects multiple vs knowing dimensions and locations seting).  My approach does need improvement?

    Thanks for the tips

    Tom

    As I wean out of PP I started watching FW and Illustrator (I have both).  I did a logo or two in FW and have used it to build simple web graphics (e.g. buttons, menus).  It can, I believe, be a little more complicated than what I need in this case.

    Given that the PP is not a graphics program, its drawing capabilities are very limited. As a result, all graphics applications will have many more features that you are used to see and more that you need for a project.

    I did a little experiment with Illustrator and my first impression is that it will work better for me for this job.  It seems a little more intuitive.

    Is a general rule to use FW for graphics for the web and Illustrator of what I was doing in PP?

    Your suggested orientation is good. Also note that if you make a logo or a vector graphic in Illustrator (saved as .ai format), you can import into Fireworks and work with it as a vector object it. FW can import and use, simply create no, files and .ai objects.

    FW has some vector tools, they are hidden under window > others > Path. Because the FW is intended to produce Web graphics, it is a hybrid, capable of vector and image/photo editing application. Given that she has some of both, it is not necessarily what is Illustrator, nor all that Photoshop has. It has most of the features of the two programs, as long as the feature is useful for a Web graphics designer. For pure photo retouching Photoshop has the edge; for pure illustration, Illustrator has the edge. Both Photoshop and Illustrator supports profiles of colors and other important features for printing which is not the fireworks. All are good programs, but there are reasons to prefer one over the other according to the type of graphics, you need to create or work with and what is your intended use of the work. (But none of them will be greater than PowerPoint!)

    I'm not sure I can unravel the mystery with the resizing of text box.  I suspect theres an option is selected.  Knowing that it's possible, it's enough for me to do some homework.

    Maybe... don't think that text boxes at all. You have text objects. The object has a bounding box which is determined by the underlying definition of the police, but he is not in an text box. (Sometimes swooshs goes beyond area of definition of a character in the police, but that's another question). The bounding box of the text object is similar to the of a circle or a star or an irregular shape bounding box. There is a reference to the dimensions box, but the text is not inside some other independent container.

    To resize it, select the text object and change the font size using the Properties palette or using the tool of the ladder hanging out on a corner of the hierarchy (different from the bounding box, and I don't know why, sorry).

    I think that with Illustrator, you can set text (or other) boxes and fill them with text. * Research * Oh... Like these: http://school.tatoland.com/illustrator/aitype.html

  • Help, please. Can't resize boxes – this isn't a question of "show/hide bounding box.

    Thanks in advance!

    If your VI runs already, when you try to run it? Which returns the error you get.

    Check the State of VI before trying to run or make an error handling.

  • The cancellation of the 'file' dialog box and handle errors caused by the empty path that makes the DB connection

    Hi guys.

    I developed a VI that connects to the database reads the names of tables, columns of the selected table, etc. It works well as I want to.

    However, I have problem with identifying the UDL file with function of dialog 'file' use in a structure of the event that is triggered when the button 'Open' value is changed. It also works well, when I choose the UDL file, but the problem is when I cancel it and I get the error 43.

    I tried to deal with this problem with a "error handler" function to clear the error 43 but the next errors that are associated with the database conncetion appeared. The reason is, when file dialog is cancelled, an empty path passes by reference of connection and I can't start the while loop where are the key codes. I also used a box Structure connected to "Cancelled" with 'DB connection tool' in case of real and connection the reference connection for the while loop, but I get the same result.

    I want to apply for work as: start to push the button "Open" and select the file UDL, the loop run to establish the connections database, if not with the cancellation of the file dialog box, the application waits by pushing the button open and select the UDL file again.

    Thanks a lot for your help in advance.
