Disappearing Page Navigation Icons

[mwoodard]

Hi,
This is a bit of a silly question, but the page navigation icons along the bottom og the document window in Pagemaker have vanished. I am having to navigate the document by clicking Layout> Go to Page, which is inconvenient and time-consuming.
Anyone know how to turn it back on, or do i need to re-install?

 

[mwoodard]

Boy, am I an idiot! It's well over 40 degrees here and i just realised that all I had to do was maximise the software and all was well...sometimes the most obvious solutions are the ones we spend hours looking for...or is that just me?

Nah - nearly everyone had the same problem with PM 7 - the extra height occupied by the new toolbar across the top wasn't accounted for by Adobe and pushed the navigation icons below the bottom of the screen. As you have found, maximising the screen solves the problem - I also redocked the toolbar to sit down one side of the screen, which helps.

Where are you that it's 40 degrees in January? Celsius or Fahrenheit?

Hi, mwoodard,

From the AdobeForums FAQ:

"When the PM window is maximised, or two windows are tiled, the page icons at the bottom disappear.

Solutions:

1. Set the windows task bar to auto-hide

Using your secondary mouse button, click on a blank part of the windows task bar, which, by default, lies across the bottom of the screen and is usually grey.
Click "Properties" with the primary button.
Now select "auto-hide" and then OK.


2. Hide or move the PageMaker toolbar

Either hide the PageMaker Toolbar (Utilities -> Plug-ins -> Show/Hide Toolbar) or drag it away from its docked position under the Menu Bar to somewhere else on the screen."



Hi, Lyn,

It's hovering around freezing here, good old 0°.
(None of that Fahrenheit rubbish here!)

I saw some footage on the TV news this morning of the weather you are having over there in the UK at the moment. Lots and lots of snow...Glad I am here, where temps have been averaging mid-20s (C of course) for the last couple of weeks. This is very cool for January, but I expect it will heat up next month. It was almost exactly a year ago that we experienced one of the highest temps ever here in Melbourne - just a notch over 44C (25 Jan 2003).

Hi, Lyn,

Actually no snow fell here, Glannau Mersi/Merseyside. The winds from the north were warmed over the Irish Sea and we had a bit of rain, though it dropped below freezing overnight. It's above freezing now, about +2°.

The weather has backed and is now blowing in from the southwest, from the mid-Atlantic and is warm and wet thanks to the Gulf Stream. So the temp will rise to 10° in the next 24-48 hours, and there'll be lots of rain.

The mid 20°s is my limit, 12°-15° is my comfort zone. 44° sounds like hell on earth!

I am sure the 40° is F.

Today we are having a warm spell in New Jersey, it is up to 0°C (32°F) and the ice and snow that fell the last 4 days is melting. That makes the drive home treacherous, though, as all this wet slush freezes tonite!

When in doubt, deny all terms and defnitions.

Hi, Carl,

> just a notch over 44C (25 Jan 2003).

Nope. 44 proper degrees Celsius.
Hotter than blood and over half way to the boiling point of aclohol!

You people on the West Bank of the big pond are having a cold time. Wrap up warm.

>>I am sure the 40° is F.<<

Not sure if you are responding to me or to the original poster (mwoodard) who mentioned 40 degrees in the second post.

He could be somewhere in the southern hemisphere, and it might just be 40C.

And yes, we really did have temps that high last summer, but not so far this year. In fact, last night we had the biggest thundestorm and downpour I can ever recall experiencing. And our max temps have been low to mid-20s for most of the last two weeks. Very very unusual for us at this time of year.

Mind you don't get heatstroke!!

>>The mid 20°s is my limit, 12°-15° is my comfort zone. 44° sounds like hell on earth! <<

Add about 10 degrees to those figures for me. It also hardly ever gets below freezing and never snows where I live. Although I must admit, that 44 was really hard to take.

44°C would be hell on earth, my martinis would evaporate before I could drink them!

Today it is a bristling -8°C and feels like -13°C.

Ah! The Scando's will be putting something over their T-shirts then!

> never snows where I live

Snow is magic. Children of all ages love it.

It's a lovely 8°C today, so I drove home with the car windows open.
