Проснувшись утром 13 декабря, что-то стрельнуло у меня в голове, и, взяв телефон в руки, я тапнул по микрофончику и, не ожидая ничего нового, спросил: «какая погода в Москве?»
When InDesign starts to behave strangely, the number one suggestion for troubleshooting is to replace (or trash, reset or restore) the application preferences. This will remove corrupt preferences and replace them with a new set of default preferences, and often end bad behavior.
This handy chart lists more than 60 commands for interacting with Google's voice assistant, including some fun Easter eggs. They work with the iOS version, too.
A look at navigation and global menus in responsive website design. Presented at the Responsive Day Out conference, 1st March, Brighton, UK.
This round-up focuses on how others are building CSS/UI style guides and some best practices. Specifically not grouping in pattern libraries in here (besides MailChimp, which is surface-level patterns) to demonstrate the many uses of these documents.
Anna Debenham has an excellent round-up of what makes up a front-end style guide in her post on 24 ways and her book — here are some more examples to explore.

Freezing (temporary and otherwise), distortions in my cursor, display .... hold off updating to the latest Nvidia drivers till they get this worked out.
I have always been fascinated by the overflow scrolling effects that appears when you’ve reached the end of a list on an iPhone and Android. A simple interface interaction like a bounce can magically make your app seems more responsive.
Today, I have decided to build a plugin that lets you add such effects to your website called FancyScroll.js. You can add the overflow effects to the whole page or any overflow:scroll divs on your website, customize the colors, the animation, or even the animation easing.
The challenge of achieving good legibility and readability of color displays in all computer graphics (including all imagery and typography) is a constant one. Especially when computer-based displays show up in more and more unexpected places, like your eyeglasses, on t-shirts, and on vehicle windshields, not just on desktop computer screens and mobile device displays. Just because user-experience (UX) design/human-computer interface (HCI) design has added layers of complexity does not mean that fundamental color issues have gone away.
That’s why we have put together a selection of tools that we use the most and that we enjoy working with. We called it selection.datavisualization.ch. It includes libraries for plotting data on maps, frameworks for creating charts, graphs and diagrams and tools to simplify the handling of data. Even if you’re not into programming, you’ll find applications that can be used without writing one single line of code. We will keep this list as a living repository and add / remove things as technology develops. We hope this will help you find the best tool for your next job.

There's always been a certain degree of confusion as to the definition of "orphans", "widows" and "runts" in typography. Runts are occasionally referred to as orphans, which does not help matters. And they are sometimes (mistakenly) called widows, too.

Ever since attending last year’s Build Conference I’ve been using what I’ll call “The Modular Scale Method,” which is a technique I’ve found invaluable for building my designs from the content out.
We’ll talk about this method more in-depth in just a little while as we look briefly at a simple Cookbook application. But given that the modular scale concerns itself with typography—the most granular level of our content.
Paper prototyping is a commonly used low cost usability method for testing and evaluating web designs and applications. This method lets developers conduct tests before a single line of code has been written, and allows you to identify and fix any potential issues early on in development.In this post we have collected our top 10 videos that not only illustrate how effective paper prototyping can be, they also show you how to cost effectively conduct your own tests and some of the videos have been animated, which are just amazing to view.
