Cinema 4d Lite Text Disappearing

Hi,
All of a sudden my text in Cinema 4D Lite is disappearing. I enter text, make the text a child of the extrude object then place the extrude object with text child into the Fracture Object. Once in the Fracture object the text disappears. I still have the directional arrows for the text, but no text. This has worked on several other text animations I have made, but now will not work.
Anyone have any ideas on what is going wrong?
Thanks,
George

Perhaps something to do with the font and the Fracture object not being able to produce clean internal mesh separations. Impossible to know without more info and screenshots of your scene and settings.

  • Cinema 4d Lite Does Not Load

    Hi,
    I can't seem to get Cinema 4d Lite to start. Has anyone had this issue? I click the app. It then appears in my dock then disappears after a few moments.
    I am on a mac running os x 10.8.4 and have an nvidia 9400M gpu.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Never mind. In After effects I need to go to File->Maxon Cinema Maxon Cinema 4d File.
    I was using my mac's Finder to launch the cinema 4d lite app. That's the wrong way.

  • Cinema 4d Lite won't open on Mac

    Anyone else having this issue? From After Effects CC. It's never started up, and closes as soon as I try to open it.

    I'm also having this same issue. It has never launched for me either and I started trying about 2 months ago and have been updating regularly and checking to see if a fix was applied but it still fails to launch.
    What version of After Effects? Include the minor version number (e.g., After Effects CS5.5 with the 10.5.1 update). Don't just say "After Effects with the latest updates"; give the specific version number. 12.0.0404
    Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.) Yes
    What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac". 10.8.4

    Do you have any third-party I/O hardware (e.g., AJA, Matrox, Blackmagic, MOTU)? No
    What kind(s) of source footage? When telling about your source footage, tell us about the codecs, not just the container types. For example, "H.264 in a .mov container", not just "QuickTime". N/A
    If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?N/A
    What were you doing when the problem occurred? Trying to launch the program, with all other programs closed. Also tried w/ AE running.
    Has this ever worked before? If this worked before by doesn't work now, what has changed on your computer in the intervening time? No
    Do you have QuickTime installed. (You should.) If so, what version? The answer should be specific, such as "QuickTime 7.6.2". Quicktime Player 10.2
    What other software are you running? None

    As a student, you might be able to get Office for Mac from the college bookstore at a substantial discount. Otherwise, I think your best option for documents that need to be shared with Office users is to get one of the free Office clones such as LibreOffice.

  • Calendar on iOS 7. Anyone noticed that when you enter text into the "notes section" of a day, the text disappears behind the keyboard rather than scrolling down to keep pace with text entry ? Looks like an 7 glitch to me ?

    Doesn't do that for me. Try resetting the phone

  • Text disappearing in pdf file

    I received a word file that was converted to pdf using "pdf maker". In the word file there is "shading" behind the text. In the pdf file if I select portions of the text and try to "highlight" it to make comments, some of the text disappears. (The text actually goes behind the "shading" so that you can't see it). If I use the "touch up object" tool in Acrobat professional, I can select the "shading" and delete and see the text underneath. Does anyone know why this is happening? Thanks

    I have run into this problem myself. I have been able to use the object selection tool (In Acrobat 8 Pro) to select the box in front of the text and delete it without also deleting the text.

  • Text disappearing in pdf when re-ordering tags

    I have a pdf (Acrobat 8 Pro), and I have created it as a tagged pdf in InDesign CS3. However, when I convert it to the pdf, the order of the tags changes, so that I need to use the Touchup Reading Order tool. When I do this, however, text disappears. The text in the ID file is in an opaque text box, and what is actually happening when I re-order in Acrobat is that the text is moved behind the opaque box so that it is no longer visible, but it still appears in the Order dialogue box.
    However, in ID, they are one object - it is a text box containing text, not a separate opaque box behind the text. Otherwise I might try tagging the box as an artifact and see if that works. Theoretically, I could select it in Acrobat to tag it as an artifact, but the selection tool only allows me to select rectangular areas, and so it selects both the opaque box and the text behind it.
    Any suggestions?

  • Text disappearing in tagged PDFs

    I recently upgraded to Acrobat Professional 9. When creating PDFs via "Convert to Adobe PDF" in Word with tagging enabled,  I'm sometimes seeing text disappear in the conversion process so that whole lines are missing from the PDF.
    Using the print dialog to print to PDF works fine and does not result in missing text. However I need tagged PDFs to meet high accessibility requirements, so should be converting from Word. Has anyone else encountered this problem? The version of Word I'm using is 2003.

    Usually when this happens it is related to the printer reflow that WORD does. There is a setting in WORD to select to not use the printer metrics for sending information to the printer. The other solution relates to selecting the Adobe PDF printer before you finish your layout, but you have already said the printer works fine.

  • Acrobat 5.0.5 text disappears in Free Text Tool

    Ok it's an oldie, but it's a goodie.  I love my Acrobat 5.0.5, and never had any reason to upgrade.  Well once.  From 5.0 to 5.0.5.  I have used my license on three different machine builds.  95, 2K and now XP Pro 64 bit and it still works great.  (Yes, this program has outlived 2 older computers!)  Well.  Until yesterday.  Suddenly when I create a free text box, and type in there, the text disappears.  This happened once before a few years back, and I have forgotten what the fix was, but I do believe that was why I upgraded from 5.0 to 5.0.5.  Now it is happening again.
    Now for the real kick in the pants.  I tried to reinstall my product, thinking to correct the problem, and all of a sudden Adobe doesn't like my several years old serial number.  I get the error message that it isn't valid.  And it IS a valid license, just a really OLD one.  I only used it for the latest install of this, my same program, about a year ago, maybe a little more than a year.
    I tried to just run the 5.0.5 update program again and it says the program isn't even installed to update.  What the heck?  OF COURSE IT IS.
    I'm very frustrated and disappointed, as this is an old favorite of mine and I hate to think that Adobe has rused it so that it just won't work anymore to force me to purchase a newer version, when I didn't need a newer version.
    If someone familiar with this old version of Acrobat could help me resolve this issue, I would very much appreciate it.  Thanks in advance.

    The 64 bit OS can run most 32 bit applications just fine if you set it up right, and as I stated, this issue is not a compatibility issue, but a recurring issue within the application itself that also plagued me once upon a time when I ran it under Win 2k.  Apparently an Adobe bug, and I suspect it is more related to the forced download of an updated version of the basic acrobat reader (due to Adobe inflicted browser issues)  than it is with a Windows update.  In my case, I set all of my old 32 bit applications up on a separate drive.  I never default install programs on the main OS drive if it can be helped.  Some of them I have to click the actual application *.exe or shortcut, because "open with" absolutely will not work, even if it is set as the default application for certain extensions.  You will get an error message about it not being a valid Win32 application.  From the program itself, however, once it is launched, it is never a problem to browse to and open the correct data file.
    I even went so far as to install the Adobe basic reader when I was forced to do so, on a completely separate drive from my Acrobat 5 because I am well aware that previously caused problems as well, and never EVER let the application make its automatic updates from Adobe.... EITHER of them, actually.  I suspect it was one of those snuck through and not a Windows update that caused it, although the possibility exists, I suspect Adobe does whatever it can to sell more software.

  • Text disappears on buttons in InDesign cs6

    I'm doing an interactive pdf from InDesign CS6. I have buttons that I've created using just a solid rectangle and reversed white text in the rectangle and the buttons are on my master page. I want my buttons to change to a different colour when you click or mouse over them (only text to change to a different colour). When I go to 'click state' or 'rollover state' (I've tried both), the button is copied and I can change the colour but then in my normal state, I have an overset text, (I get a red plus sign) my text disappears. When I try and correct my normal state, the same thing happens in my click or rollover state. When I export a file to an interactive pdf, my normal state button is without text and my over or click state button has text with the colour that I've selected. Does anyone know why this happens or how to fix it?
    Thanks,
    NZ

    We might be able to help you but you'll have to drop the attitude. We're not Adobe here, but users like you.
    You'll need to tell us exactly what you're doing and what's not working for you. By "rollovers," you could mean the change of appearance of a button. You could also be meaning what are sometimes called Show/Hide buttons where clicking a button causes another button to appear. Which is it?
    And what kind of output are you attempting? Interactive PDF? SWF (Flash)? DPS?

  • Why does my text disappears (some of it) when I convert my .psd to a PS .pdf?

    I've read every possible answer that it could be, but it increases my .pdf to more than 600 MB, that it will supposed to be!! please advice!!!

    What version of PS? What text? What PDF setttings? What system? what fonts? You need to provide a lot more details. If the text disappears, the font may not allow to be embedded or you have applied some formatting or styling that can't be retained without converting it to pixel data...

  • Why does added text disappear when I move the cursor

    After adding text to an unprotected .pdf file the text disappears when I move the cursor and want to add a second box of text. The text in the first box reappears when I double click on the space where the box was. How do I set the text so that it remains visible and printable?

    Hi,
    I think the data in the PDF file was filled-in using MAC preview.
    One option is to ask the user to fill the file again using Adobe Reader or Acrobat.
    Or else refer to following link:

  • Why does Pages Text Disappear On Conversion to PDF

    I made a two-page newsletter in Pages '09. The text on the front page article disappears when I export to PDF. The text is there in the thumbnail for the file but when I open the PDF document, the page is blank except for the graphics and photo.
    I'm using pages '09 and the latest version of Acrobat Pro. The font is Futura Medium and shows up fine on the second page.
    Any ideas?
    Message was edited by: Hogrider03

    After pulling my hair out for several days trying to solve for this, my son looked at it and in 20 seconds figured out the problem. The file looked fine in Preview and showed up in the thumbnail. Exporting to Word also worked, but the text disappeared regardless of how I arrived at the PDF.
    When examining the text box for the the "disappearing" text, my son chose "Bring To Front" from the "Arrange" menu and that fixed it. This made sense because all the other body copy text was the exact same font/style, etc. and displayed as expected in the exported PDF. Therefore, the problem was isolated to the properties of that one text box. In the course of laying out the newsletter, that one text box was sent backward in the layers and when converted to PDF, was hidden behind an invisible layer (there was no background of any kind behind the text, just the white "paper").

  • Text disappears after sent as attachment in Outlook

    I am sending some PDF files through outlook and am experiencing a peculiar phenomenon with many of them. Two text boxes go AWOL on the recipient side when I send the PDFs through Outlook 2003 in two PDF documents. This is not a usual occurence my any means. The files were generated in Illustrator on another computer, and show up fine on mine before I send them. It says the fonts are embedded, so I don't believe that's the problem.
    Any ideas?
    Tyler

    I'm "sending" them using the standard attach feature of Outlook. I attach the file and send it out and a portion of the text disappears. I discovered that if I try to select the text in acrobat pro and change the font, the text does still exist. However, with the font embedded and intact in other places of the document I can't understand why it would disappear there.
    It isn't user specific. A number of people in our office are having problems with it. However, when I sent it through my gmail it worked fine.
    I assumed it was an error in the file, as I don't think Outlook should be manipulating the file.

  • Dynamic text disappears when clicking bold button.

    Dear friends,
    I have dynamic text inside a movieclip, that I can make it rotate.
    the dynamic text properties are : anti-alias for anmations and I emdedded all characters.
    When I click on the bold button the the text disappears.
    bold_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.Click, on_bold);
    function on_bold(e:MouseEvent):void
         var my_format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
         my_format.bold = true;
         my_mc.my_txt.setTextFormat(my_format);
    How can I solve this problem.

    the easiest (and not very elegant way) is to add textfields that contain those fonts (and embed them).  you can remove your textfields from the display list or otherwise, make them not visible on-stage.
