Can you Skew a Rectangle but Maintain Visual Stroke Weight?

I want to lay it down at the same perspective as the obect its laying on but keep an even weight all around. Technically it is but gets thick/thin as I add perspective. I unerstand why and that is a good thing in other places but i am going for a different effect. Any suggestions? Skew, distort, powerpin all seem to do the same thing.
see jpg attached.

Shape layers! If it's just for this kind of geometric stuff, the built-in transforms of shapes would do, especialyl since you can control when a stroke gets applied by simply reordering the items in teh stack...

  • On a Mac, can you navigate menus with one handed key strokes like Windows?

    On a Mac, is there anyway to navigate menus with one handed keyboard strokes like you can in Windows? My girlfriend is a graphic designer and switched from Windows to Mac. She misses being able to use the Alt key and make menu selections. On Windows she can press "Alt" and then move through menus and submenus with one hand on the keyboard. When you press "Alt" the first letter of every menu is highlighted. When she presses a certain letter the menu drops down, and the first letter of every submenu is then highlighted. She can then navigate through all the submenus until she hits the selection she wants, all using the left hand on the keyboard. It's very fast and efficient. Can you do something similar to this on a Mac?
    The reason she wants to do this is because when she is in Photoshop, she likes to use her right hand on the mouse with the cursor inside the canvas (sketching, moving layers around) while she makes menu commands with the left hand. It is 10 times faster this way than using the mouse for everything. Hot keys are not the same because you must have those memorized. With the "Alt" key function, you can open a drop down menu, see the choices, and make your selection.
    I have been a Mac person my whole life, and I have to say, it's a pretty awesome function. I really want the Mac to have something similar.

    [Actual studies|http://www.asktog.com/TOI/toi06KeyboardVMouse1.html] have found it is faster to use the mouse to make command activations than using keyboard shortcuts.
    The 20-year-old argument on that web page isn't very convincing. Keyboard shortcuts are certainly faster for experience power users who do the same thing every day. The mouse is faster only for new users or users doing non-repetitive commands every day.
    It is interesting that one of the posts on that page said this:
    I remember one mainframe company in the sixties that came up with the following command-key guidelines:
    Use the first letter of the command word
    If the first letter is already used, use the last letter
    If the last letter is already used, use the second letter
    If the second letter is already used, use the second-to-the-last letter
    etc.
    This is actually very similar to how the keyboard-driven menus work in Mac OS X. The advantage over the Windows method is that when there is more than one command in a menu that shares the same first letter, you do not have to memorize which command uses which letter. You just type ahead until the correct command is selected.
    I would, however, encourage Derek Doublin1's girlfriend to learn the direct keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop. On Mac or PC, for me pressing Command-Option-I is much faster than either the mouse or using the keyboard to drop the Image menu and walk down to the Image Size command.

  • Can you create a rectangle in acrobat pro

    Hi all
    So I wondered if you could draw a rectangle in your form and fill it with a colour and then put some text on top of the construct....
    Anyone know?
    Thanks
    George

    yes I do, but the process you describe does not work.
    Allow me to describe the steps and perhaps you can tell me what you do different:
    Tools > Forms > Edit > Add New Field > Text Field
    Position, Resize, Properties : Read Only; Appearance Fill Red
    now seconf text field
    still in edit form > Add New Field > Text Field
    Position this second text field over the first one
    Properties : Read Only .... now which property or object can I use to enter the instructions???

  • How can you make phone ring but text vibrate

    How do you set your phone to ring but all other notifications ie texts &emails vibrate?
    This question is for iPhone 4 & 4s

    As i mentioned up top, you can do this with a silent ringtone. I have read some app's have muted ringtones(don't know of the app name though) OR, GarageBand can make ringtones on Mac. (that is where i think you would need further explaining on, if you have Mac).
    The silent tone will be set as text's tone (as the same if it made noise), it will vibrate two times quick...While asleep, awake, on a phone call, still texting, at almost any time i can think of, (other than powered OFF.)
    I have recommended this method, for people asking as a regular ringtone, for telemarketer's, unknown callers, and other sort of people. And YES, you will need the Vibrate turned on.
    Hope this helped.

  • Can you hear other people, but they can't hear you? Here's how I fixed it.

    If you're having the same problem I did where you could hear other people on a call, but they couldn't hear you and your microphone worked fine for everything else then you are in the same boat I was.
    After a week of trying to fix it, a friend and myself have our phones working correctly again and my phone has been working fine for the past 3 days now.
    To fix the problem, we re-downloaded the 4.2.1 file outside of iTunes and did a restore on the phone. (We both restored from a backup and it still worked). You can find the specific file download links on the 4th post on this page: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1052794&page=5 or through apple's support downloads page. Once downloaded, double click the file to open it (iTunes should open) and plug your phone in then do a restore. We both did ours from a backup and it still worked fine, the thing that has to be reinstalled is the update, which is what the restore will do.
    It took my friend three tries of downloading until his worked, but for me it worked on the first try.
    Good luck to anyone who also had this problem!

    Good news! I believe I have fixed my phone!!
    A friend of mine was having the same problem that I was having where you could hear other people but they couldn't hear you.
    We fixed the problem by redownloading the 4.2.1 update. 4th post down on this page: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1052794&page=5 is a list of links to the update files. I downloaded the one for my phone and did a restore (from a backup) after downloading the file and double clicking it so iTunes opens. Since I've done this my phone has been working perfectly again!
    It might take you a few tries, it took my friend 3 tries until his worked right and it worked for me on the first try. I'm guessing something was screwing up during the download.

  • Can you record slide timing but NOT voice over

    I need to time my presentation but when I record, I'm also getting megs of audio (even though there's no narration required.) Can I time my presentation without recording an audio track?

    Thank you Kelly, I've resolved this issue using your advice. Unfortunately I'm still experiencing grief trying to export - a 40 meg KN file is a 600 meg movie AND the audio stops mid way every screen. AND the image quality is poor.. it's frustrating as this is a client deliverable, is late, and now must be rebuilt in PowerPoint - it won't be as pretty but it will work that way. Thank you for your help.

  • Can you turn off data but not phone

    How do you turn off the data on your phone (so you won't be charged for extra usage) but not the texting and phone?

    Settings>General>Cellular>Cellular Data>Off. You can still SMS, but no MMS. iMessage will work while connected to WiFi.

  • Can you skew a "picture within picture"?

    Hi all,
    I have this video clip:
    http://www.computershy.com/tv_720.jpg
    I'd like to insert a video clip (or a still graphic) from one of my instructional videos onto the tv screen (so that it looks like he's watching
    one of my programs).
    iMovie 09 makes it pretty easy but the video clips and the still graphics that I've tried don't fit perfectly onto the TV's green screen.
    Is there a way to "skew" a video or a picture onto the TVs green screen so that it looks natural?
    Or am I going about this the wrong way?
    Thanks!
    Mike

    There is no way to do this in iMovie 09. The PIP will be rectangular and line up with the dimensions of the larger screen.

  • PS CC 3D - can you cast a shadow but not render the object?

    Hey guys,
    In PS CC, is it possible to render a 3D shadow + reflection, but have the object that is casting it invisible?
    So the end result is a shadow/reflection on it's own separate layer?
    Cheers,

    Here's one way that might work:
    Make your 3d object including shadows on one layer, then in the Properties panel for the object mesh check Invisible.
    Duplicate the layer and in the Properties panel under Scene uncheck Shadows
    That should give you one layer with only the object visible and one layer with only the shadow visible.

  • Can you install Lion server but still use the mac as normal?

    I have a Macbook Pro and I would like to install Lion server. I was wondering if when I buy it off the mac app store if it works like any application so I can like close out of the server and use the mac as normal like to get on the Internet, or if Lion server installs like a new operation system and I can't use my mac as normal?
    Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Of course. On Mountain Lion and Lion, Server is just an app, so you can close it and turn off its services whenever you want to use your Mac as usual, although you don't have to close Server app to use the computer as normal

  • Can you please CLEAN up the podcasts that are no longer in service or being maintained? It's very tedious to click on someone's podcast to find that it hasn't been updated in 3 years.

    This is a user forum and it is best to post these inquiries to Apple Feedback:

    You are right, a lot of older dead podcasts do not belong in the podcasts section. But there is still a lot of these podcasts that have good information and deserve to still be listed. For example there is quite a few photography lesson based podcasts in which you can get good information from different sources.
