How do I get multiple object to curve (like a smile/frown)?

I'm trying to get these shapes to curve up, like a smile, and then curve down, like a frown, as the word changes to "misery." (The middle object stays in place, the objects on the outside rotate upwards and downwards) I've looked up several tutorials but I can't find exactly what I'm looking for. Any suggestions?

You could use several of the effects in the Distort category to achieve this... witht the effect applied to a precomposition layer, of course.
That said, I'd probably start with the Puppet tools:

  • How do you get multiple screens on the iPad with iOS 5.1.1?

    How do you get multiple screens on the iPad with iOS 5.1.1? We just upgraded to iOS 5.1.1, and we see no way to be able to open multiple screens at once. Before, there was a small button in the upper portion of any window. That button would take you from a particular window to the place where multiple windows are open at once. Does it do it differently? Is there a special setting button that we have missed? Thanks!
    One more thing: We are only talking about Safari.

    Guitaristica-
    I don't think I've seen a way to have separate Safari screens visible at the same time.  The small thumbnails were deleted in one of the iOS updates, and replaced with a multiple "Tab" system.
    You can open an additional screen in a new "tab" by pressing and holding on a link until a new menu comes up.

  • How do i get multiple internet screens going on Safari?

    How do I get multiple internet screens going on Safari at the same time?

    Do you mean "New window" (command-n) or "New tab" (command-t)? Are you in "Full Screen Mode"? If so, hit the escape key to exit that mode before making a new window or tab.  Use Expose/Mission Control to manage windows.

    How can I get clip art on Pages like MS Word has?

    Pages will use any old graphics, of which there are bucket loads on the internet.
    You just drag, paste or import it or bring it in via the Media Browser:
    Menu > View > Show Media Browser
    If you want WordArt then you will need to create that in another program and bring it in.

  • How do I create multiple objects during runtime?

    I don't know how to create multiple objects during runtime, here's my problem:
    I get a String as input. Then I create an object called newobject. I put the object in a hashtable with the above string as key.
    Then comes the problem, in order to create a new object, I have to rerun the same class, which uses the same name (newobject) to create a 2nd object. Now my hashtable doesn't reference to my 1st object anymore...
    Is there anyway I can fill up the hashtable with different objects, and make each key point to each object it was supposed to?
    For those who want to see a bit of the program:
    public class PlayBalloon{
    public Hashtable ht = new Hashtable();
    for(){
    Balloon pB = newBalloon;
    newBalloon=new Balloon(pB);
    ht.put("Some input from user", newBalloon);
    for(){
    ht.get(s).draw;<= s=string, draw=own meth. in Balloon
    }

    I think i can see the problem that you are having. You have, in effect, duplicate keys in your hashtable - ie, two strings used as keys with the same name.
    The way that a hashtable works is as follows...
    When you ask for a value that is mapped to a key it will go through the table and return the first occurence it finds of the key you asked for. It does this by using the equals() method of whatever object the key is (in your case it is a String).
    If you cant use different Strings for your keys in your hashtable then i would consider writing an ObjectNameKey class which contains the String value that you are trying to put in the hashtable and an occurrence number/index or something to make it unique. Remember to override the equals method in your ObjectNameKey object or else the hash lookup will not work. For example
    class ObjectNameKey {
        private String name;
        private int occurence;
        public ObjectNameKey(String name, int occ) {
            this.name = name;
            this.occurence = occ;
        public String getName() {
            return name;
        public String getOccur() {
            return occurence;
        public boolean equals(Object o) {
            if (!(o instanceof ObjectNameKey)) {
                return false;
            ObjectNameKey onk = (ObjectNameKey)o;
            if (onk.getName().equals(name) && onk.getOccur() == occurence) return true;
            return false;

  • How do I get multiple Apple Tv's to show up in Airplay?

  • How can I get multiple users to be able to share the music on iTunes? I've tried Home Sharing, but it does not work properly.

    How can I get home sharing to work on my mac mini for multiple users? It says it is working, but it never shows up in the left hand column.

    Gino Cerullo,
    Thanks for your response. I tried all that myself. In fact, last night, it all worked fine on all users. This morning, no Home Sharing would show up. It is really weird because some setting must have changed, but I did not knowingly changed anything, and now all the obvious fixes don't work. In fact, if I turn off Home Sharing and turn it back on, then it comes up only until I hit the "done" button on the set up page and then it goes away from the left hand column again. The ADVANCED drop down tab says it is on, but it is not there.
    Thanks anyway.

  • How do you get multiple live instruments to put out sound?

    I just got a M-Audio 61 keyboard from my wife for our anniversary. I love it and it works great with GarageBand 1.X. I also have a guitar I use with GB. It is plugged in the 1/8 in. mini jack input in the back of the Mac. I however can't get both to put out sound at the same time. Lets say, for instance, that I would play the guitar and my wife the keys. How can I get both to put out sound at the same time?
    Thank for any help you can offer.
    Your friend in Mac OS X,
    Jose

    Danke Christoph!
    I was glad to get your response. I thought I was not doing something right in GarageBand. I'll get GB2 and try out multiple live sources.
    Once again thanks.

  • How can i get session object based on session id?

    I have tried searching in forum but i can't find any solution that i can get session object based on session id and i also would like to know how to check whether the session is still active? My company currently using weblogic 5.1. I really hope that some one or anyone can help. I am new in using Servlet. I hope that i can find some answer here. Thank you.

    I have a need to get a Session object from a session id, so I don't think that the above should be deprecated. Here is my use case:
    0. I am displaying files in a file list
    1. I am downloading files.
    2. I am downloading files through a Servlet
    3. I am displaying the files as images in an applet
    4. The applet is ImageJ, and it apparently uses a full URL to download the file.
    5. I use request.getRequestURL() in the applet .jsp to get the full URL (the hostname and port)
    6. My app server is OC4J and it's behind an apache server and is host aliased.
    7. Thus the hostname is different between my applet .jsp and the Servlet URLs
    8. Thus I have 2 different sessions
    9. Thus I need to pass the session id (or some other unique identifier).
    10. I could stored the unique identifier in the application object, but then I would need to clean it up
    11. I cannot pass the the full path to the image due to security problems (what if someone downloads my password file?)
    12. I would like this to work in a clustered environment
    13. I think that WebDAV would solve my problems, since I could pass a full URL of webDAV to ImageJ for download. However, I am unsure how the security of WebDAV would work with ImageJ/URLConnection. I will have to research this feature in ImageJ.

  • How to global replace multiple objects using csm

    Hi All
    I’m new to this forum.
    We use csm 4.6 to manage about 400 cisco firewalls. After a large migration project there are a lot of objects with different names but with the same content. I know you can do a find and replace on a single object on a single firewall policy.
    But is it also possible to replace multiple object for 1 on multiple firewall policy
    Example.
    We have 40 groups named net-1, net-2 , net-3, …. net-40 the content of the groups are the same but their used in different firewall policies. I would like to replace them all in one go on all the firewall which has one of those groups to the new group net-all.
    I’m also looking in a way to delete all non used object in the csm database (hosts, groups, network, services) Is this possible?
    Kind Regards
    Eduard

    Jacob,
    I decided to take one more stab at the logo before uploading it, and I finally figured it out.
    I selected one white shape and one colored shape. In the pathfinder panel, I clicked on the second pathfinder icon -- TRIM. That "cut out" the part of the colored shape that I needed cut out, and it grouped the two items (white and colored shapes).
    I ungrouped the items, then selected the white shape again and the other colored shape. Did this for each shape I needed cut out and now Bob's my uncle.
    Not sure why this didn't work for me before -- I was either selecting the wrong pathfinder icon, or failing to ungroup the shapes after trimming them (before re-selecting the same white shape).
    I've written down the procedure so I can remember how to do it next time!
    Thanks,
    Marlene

  • How do I get multiple disc music CD's to load properly into my iCloud?

    Here is the scenario:   I have several "Greatest Hits" CD's in my personal library that I am attempting to load into iTunes/iCloud.  These CD's comprise two discs.   I loaded these originally on my old PC.....before I signed up for my "cloud".   Yesterday I noticed on my iPad that only one of the CD's is showing up.  So, I loaded the second one  via my new MacBook Pro.   It already had the first CD showing which matched the iPad.  The result,  the Pro now only has the second CD, and the iPad only has the first CD.   I of course want both on both devices.  I checked another "set" by another artist, and found the same scenario.  How can I get ALL of the songs to show up on all of my devices from both CD's?  BTW, I turned off ITunes Match on both devices and restarted it on both devices....the results are after I did that.  

    Thanks for the help, but I do have the latest version installed. 11.0.4.   The computer I am working on is brand new, and I verified the version just to be sure.   So, the fix apparently did not resolve the problem.   I guess I will just have to wait....
