Re: How do I highlight text

[Philip Taylor]

Why does he need to be more explicit ?  The four possible
usages you have outlined all above all react identically
to the technique I outlined in my original reply and all
highlight a stretch of text if that technique is used.

Some people use "highlight" to mean "select" because a selected block of 
text changes color, acquires a colored background, etc. (depending on 
the program). If that's what he means, click and drag will suffice.


But if he's talking about applying some permanent formatting feature 
such as MS Word's "highlight," selection is not enough, some further 
action is required.


We won't know until he clarifies.

Understood.  I had not considered that meaning of "highlight".

Well, I've never been able to get Fox-It to open a PDF file in a

I don't use tabs unless I'm doing research but I've never had any problems 
opening a PDF.  A new window opens in SeaMonkey, stays blank and Fox-It opens 
the PDF within the program.

It could be worse. I just tried it in Firefox 25.0 and RMB Copy Image 
doesn't do anything. My Firefox 25.0 has no extensions and a pristine 
profile. It also has a "Copy Image Location" CMI that does what you 
report seeing in SeaMonkey.


Maybe labeled incorrectly in SeaMonkey. ??

Ugg. I'm getting ready to Downgrade. First time that the bugs are bad 
enough for me to do that.  I'm getting afraid there are just not enough

Signature if already there

[hawker]

It seems some other e-mail clients know when you already have a 
signature in an e-mail so it doesn't put it there again if you have a 
long back and fourth correspondence. Seamonkey doesn't seem to have this 
level of intelligence.


Is there a setting or plug in that can add this back? Cutting out all my 
signatures after a long back and fourth is a pain.

Part of the problem is that the Adobe Reader plugin identifies itself as
from Adobe Acrobat.  This is an Adobe problem, not a Sea Monkey problem.
 But it can confuse the users of SeaMonkey and other browsers.

Right-click and select Copy Image while cursor is over an image.

Paste:
Over Photo Editor, Paint, Word, Excel:  I get an image.
Over Notepad, Wordpad: I get the URI.

Note that neither Notepad nor Wordpad are intended to display images.
They are text editors, not document creators.  Thus, pasting the URI
might be correct for those two applications.

I also tried Copy Image and then disabled my Internet connection.  I was
then able to paste the image (NOT the URI) into Photo Editor, thus
proving that the image was indeed in my clipboard.

All this leads to the question:  How do you know that only a URI and not
an image is in your clipboard?

The image URL is also in the clipboard, yes. However, when I Paste the

image. If I then save the document, turn off my internet connection and 
re-open the document, the image is still displayed in the document. btw,

I just used the wisiwig "Composer" from
  the "Window" menu of SM.
  Putting some txt and at the end do a copy/paste of a jpg found on
  internet.
  
  This is NOT the Mail-Editor ...just click on "Window" then click
  on "Composer" do what you want with or without copy/paste from
  somewhere.
  Save you work as "signature2.htm" file - then use it inside
SM with:
-"Attach the signature from a file instead"
- Don't forget to set "Compose message in html format" in the same
account parameters.

When you create a mail, send it in "html" format or in "html and
text" format. If you send it in "text" format, i suspect that the
picture will dissapear


  If you prefer, you can use another wisiwig html editor like
  BlueGriffon, the steps are the same - Create an html file and use
  it.

editor. Either neither worked for me or I did not have something set
correctly.



I just used the wisiwig "Composer" from the "Window" menu of SM.
Putting some txt and at the end do a copy/paste of a jpg found on internet.

This is NOT the Mail-Editor ...just click on "Window" then click on
"Composer" do what you want with or without copy/paste from somewhere.
Save you work as "signature2.htm" file - then use it inside SM with:
-"Attach the signature from a file instead"
- Don't forget to set "Compose message in html format" in the same
account parameters.

When you create a mail, send it in "html" format or in "html and text"
format. If you send it in "text" format, i suspect that the picture will
dissapear


If you prefer, you can use another wisiwig html editor like BlueGriffon,
the steps are the same - Create an html file and use it.


Ray



Thanx I did some more playing. not sure I got this right yet.
It appears that if I copy and past an image into composer it puts the 
URL in the HTML. If I insert the image it converts it.  We must have 
some subtle setting different. But at least I have a way to start making 
this work. Thanx.

How do I find if it is listed.

If I RMB copy image SM used to copy the image to the clip board.
In 2.21 it seems to copy the image location to the clipboard, not the
image.


Never used "Copy Image", but it does copy the URL to the clipboard
in my
SeaMonkey 2.21.

Why not use "Save Image As..."?


Lots of times I need to just grab the image and put it somewhere, in
an E-mail, a Word Doc or somewhere. Save as  is an extra step. I used
to work - I'm pretty sure this is a new bug.


RMB "Copy Image" works here, in MS Mail (OE descendant) , Word and
Paint.


But do you see the image or the URL to the image in your clipboard?

I did a Copy Image, pasted it into a Libre Office Doc, and it appeared
just fine. Saved the doc, turned my router off, opened the document,
and no image. Just a placeholder for it with the URL.

I'd take the extra step.


The image URL is also in the clipboard, yes. However, when I Paste the
"Copy Image" to any of the above mentioned programs, it displays the
image. If I then save the document, turn off my internet connection and
re-open the document, the image is still displayed in the document. btw,
this also works in SM 2.22.



...what happens if you simply drag and drop the image onto your Desktop?

Adobe PDF Viewer Addon - Same question for Shockwave Flash AND Fox-It

[Peter Anton]

OK, I'm doing some serious housekeeping in my Addons area.  I tried to 
open an eGreeting card and just getting a black screen where a something 
(a video?) should be.  Shockwave shows the same error in the Addon 
page.  Is it them (rather than SM) also?  Is there a Shockwave/Flash 
alternative?  And Fox-It seems to be the same, but different because I 
can't even find it in three pages of addon search for "fox-it".


This message when trying to Update Shockwave Flash:


 *Flash Player Plugin 10.2.* and lower (click-to-play)* has been
 blocked for your protection.

Why was it blocked?

Old versions of the Flash Player plugin are potentially insecure and 
unstable. All users are strongly recommended to check for updates at our 
plugin check page .


Who is affected?
All users who have these versions of the Flash plugin installed in 
*Firefox 18* and above.

   *(BTW, How do Firefox and Seamonkey version numbers compare for
   currency?)*

What does this mean?
The problematic add-on or plugin will be automatically disabled and no 
longer usable.

Paul,

*Update Now* gave me the error page that I quoted.  That's why I'm so

a workable addon.  I'd like to hear details from those who have a 
working system.  In the end, all I really have to do is download the 
PDFs and view them in my standalone viewer installation.  But, it's the 
principle of the thing: I'd just like a browser with addons that work.

I gave you the link to a workable add-on. Update to V. 11 and you'll be 
fine, SM won't block that. Here it is again:

If you'd rather view PDFs in a standalone application, you have that 
option, too: Edit | Preferences | Browser | Helper Applications. Scroll 
through the list, find the PDF file type(s) and set them to "Use Acrobat 
Reader" (or whatever program you prefer). Once you've done this, anytime 
you click a PDF link in SM it will automatically send the file to the 
outside application.


Of course, you can't select an application you haven't installed, so 
install first and then tell SM to use that.

Hawker, I see you are using SeaMonkey (not always the case for those

Has my sig been quoted or not??

Hopefully, everything below the "-- " (dash dash space) is removed when

included, wrongly, with-in the HTML envelope, so cannot be removed.

Email display area

[David Kerridge]

I was using SM 2.21 and about 3 or 4 days ago I noticed that the text 
display area got wider, so wide in fact if It was an email with an 
attachment, I could only see just the left edge of the attachment box. I 
tried to bring the right edge of the display area to the left, but it 
wouldn't move. I tried a few other things, but I couldn't do anything to 
correct the problem.  I looked in preferences, but no help. I looked in 
View and Tools, also no help.  I downloaded SM 2.22 but that didn't 
correct the problem.  Does anyone have any solutions for this problem?
