    Default Question Richard

    Hey thanks Richard, the component is a youtube file. You brought up
    something I've always had a problem with...when you embed any html, you make
    a textbox, then "controlT" and insert it, BUT the place holder in design
    view always shrinks to the smallest size and I'm left guessing where to
    place others links and objects! Is there a way to show how big the actual
    component box is on the page??? Please show me how if you know, greatly
    appreciated!
    I tried putting the gif in it's own layout region, worked once. Now not
    working, now my
    white text box is expanding to right?!! What's up with that??? Ugh.

    One more thing, you must know I've tried moving everything around every
    which way,
    the gif is nowhere near the youtube html, the picture of the cats doesn't
    move??? I still can't place the gif where I want it! and I can't make it a
    jpeg cuz the transparency looks like crap. Man, I never had this many
    problems in NOF7.

    Does the problem disappear if you remove the YouTube video?
    Have you tried to create a Layout Region that is the exact size (or
    larger) as the YouTube video and Control-T your YouTube code into that?
    Have you tried to put a "placeholder" Layout Region running vertically
    along the entire height of the right side of the page?

    Laurence, I just removed the video as you suggested, and everything is fine
    and perfectly placed! On my current version of my website, I have a link to
    the video and the videos on their own page, I guess I'll have to stick with
    that, I'm sure I'll have something come up then too!
    Oh well, I lost two hours screwing around with that. I do still have a
    question about the html boxes, is there a way to have them show correct size
    in design view? instead of so tiny?
    Thanks for your help!

    Tiny? If you drag out the size of a Layout Region to be the size that
    you want... it'll stay that size. Were you using a Text box, perhaps?
    Those will maintain width but height will collapse to the height of a
    single line.... unless you check the box in the Properties Palette for
    "fixed height".

    Yes I'm using textbox, control T. You can make the text box whatever width
    you want even after entering the code, but it will always reduce down to a
    lines height, ...I would like it to show the actual size box of the content
    it holds, to better place them.
    I see a "lock height" option in properties, but don't see "fixed height"
    option.

    Yes, I was going from memory... I should have said "lock height". That
    will maintain the height of a Text Box... otherwise, it collapses to the
    height of what is in the box. Since you didn't type any text in the
    box, NOF treats the box as if it were empty, so without locking the
    height, that box will collapse to 1 line.
