Editing a slide in "zoom" view

I am working with Captivate v4.
When I am doing some delicate editing on a slide (align etc), I tend to use the zoom option to 150 - 200%.
What I am finding is when working in zoom mode everything I do on the slide results in the object moving in a very jerky, time delayed fashion whilst it takes up its new position rather that the smooth motion you tend to get when working in normal view.
Is this something to do with the spec of my PC or is this the way it works in Captivate v4 ?
Does the same thing happen in V5 ?
Thanks in advance,
Noel

Hi Vishwas,
Thanks for your prompt reply.

"Zoom" view in Numbers

"Zoom" view in Numbers in set to 100% by default. I frequently need to zoom out to see the entire sheet but I'm unable to select a percentage between what Numbers has in the dialog box. In Excel I can actually type in an amount of zoom. Is there a way to do that in Numbers 09?

The original question was already responded:
As far as I know, the response is no.
The feature is unavailable.
The only thing which I may do is to change the default value to a non_standard value which will remain available.
It's easy to do.
It just require a brute force operation on the Index.xml file in a standard Numbers document.
Changing this setting in a template is waste of time. The code creating a document from a template filters the zoom factor allowing only predefined values.
Create a new document named xxxx.numbers
If Numbers '09 is ste to create flat files, rename xxxx.numbers as xxxx.zip then double click it.
You will get the folder xxxx.
Open it.
Open the file entitled Index.xml
Search for the string:
"{sf:LSWorkspaceCanvasScaleProperty}"
CAUTION: in this message I use accolades "{}" as replacements for "" which where fooling the message parser
You will find three occurences looking this way:
{sf:LSWorkspaceCanvasScaleProperty}{sf:number sfa:number="1" sfa:type="f"/}
Edit the second occurence to fit your needs:
For instance:
{sf:LSWorkspaceCanvasScaleProperty}{sf:number sfa:number="0.88" sfa:type="f"/}
Save the edited file.
Rename the folder xxxx as xxxx.numbers
Open it in Numbers.
The zoom factor will be 88%.
It will remain this one as far as you don't change it from the zoom menu.
A neat way to get quite the same result easily is to work with the mode "Print View" active.
Use the slider available at the bottom to set the scale to fit your needs.

When i set page as template, set editable regions and try to view in browser IE 9 a download box com

When I set page as template, set editable regions and try to view in browser IE 9 a download box comes up and when i click open it just opens the file again in DW.

Use the Template to spawn a child page. File > New > Page from Template...
Save the child page as some_file.html and then preview that in your browsers.

Personalized Template, can't edit added slides, only edit master slide

Hello Keynote Geeks!
I am counting on your expertise to help me with this challenge.
This is what happened:
1) I had a design company to create a personalized presentation template for my production company.
2) Whenever I try to use this template Keynote keeps insisting on only allowing me to edit master slides. Even after I added them to the presentation. This creates a dumb workflow in which I have to be duplicating master slides, editing them in the edit master slide menu and then adding them back to my presentation.
I recorded a 2 minutes screen flow video demonstrating the issue. Please watch it on this Vimeo link:
https://vimeo.com/124934712
I will be incredibly thankful to anyone that gives me a smart solution to optimize our presentation edit workflow.
Cheers from Brazil,
JP Jacobsen

A "geek" means a clumsy fool, I would never call anyone this.
You are not using the correct method to edit items on a slide. Double clicking an object on a slide that is on the slide master allows editing the master object, it does not allow editing the object on the slide.
The correct procedure is:
add a new silide based on a slide master of your choise
to add a photo to the slide;   use a Finder window to drag and drop a file onto the image place holder
to add new text to a slide; click on the text placeholder once, then type in the new text
This assumes the master slide was created correctly by using media and text Placeholders.
To add a text placeholder to a master slide: add a text box to the master then change the font, size and colour
select the text box then:     Format > Advanced > Define as text placeholder
To add a Media Placeholder to a master slide: drag and drop any image file of the correct format (vertical or horizontal) on to the master
select the photo then:     Format > Advanced > Define as Media placeholder
close the master slide by clicking the blue Done button bottom right

Simple way to use the Photo Gallery Module and flexslider to create an editable image slider?

I want to offer an image slider that my clients can easily update themselves through the Admin. Ive researched it alot and I know it can be done using web apps but does my cliently seriously need to pay over $400 a year for the webcommerce option just to have an updatable image slider?? I find that unrealistic. Does anyone know how to set this up using the photo gallery module and "flexslider" so clients on the business marketing plan can have access to a simple and clean editable image slider?
Any BC experts that can help would be greatly appreicated!
Thankyou

Not an expert, but I think what you're looking for is a slider that can get its list of photos from an XML file. The Photo Gallery module can produce an XML file.

How can I reset the DEFAULT zoom view in Firefox at 125%, like IE, so I don't have to reset it every time ?

How can I reset the DEFAULT zoom view in Firefox at 125%, like IE, so I don't have to reset it every time ?
I have seen this question asked previously and it seems there is no answer.
I know that one can change each individual web page (that reset defaults back to 100%) and, alternatively and apparently one can load an add-on to fix the default size at Full Zoom.
... But any hints on how to achieve a DEFAULT 125% zoom would be much appreciated.

Press CTRL + 0
Have you tried Firefox's zoom feature? Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages
You can "zoom" all sites using this add-on: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]. After setting your global zoom level, you can still fine-tune the zoom on individual sites.
After installing NoSquint, click the % on the Add-on Bar to call up site preferences, then click the Global Settings button, then the Zooming tab.
If you don't have the Add-on Bar displayed, you can right-click the new tab button ("+") or a blank area of the tab bar to the right of it and choose Add-on Bar from the shortcut menu.
You can experiment with sizes larger than 125%, but I wouldn't go much higher than 150% unless you have a large high-resolution monitor.
If there are particular sites that still present a problem, feel free to post their URLs.
You can find more information about the zoom features Firefox offers in these articles:
[[Text zoom]] - For zooming text only
[[Page zoom]] - For zooming the whole page (including images etc.)

How do I center the whole slide in navigator view?

New to iwork 08...how do I center the whole slide in navigator view (large pane)? The top and left edges do not show. Probably a simple answer but cannot find out how.
Thanks.
JM

See benvu's comment above. I found this thread looking for a solution to the exact same problem. Say you want to animate an object such that it appears from off-slide and ends up in a pre-defined place. You do it by using an 'action build' on the object, of type 'move'. But because the slide itself is always jammed into the upper left-hand corner of the canvas, it's extremely awkward placing the initial position off-slide to the left or top. You can do it by first placing it and animating it fully on the canvas, then move it off the canvas - but you can never grab it back afterward to reposition it.
For those of us who love Keynote because it allows us to create cinematic presentations that are more artful communication than bog-standard bullet points spinning in from space (+à la+ PowerPoint), this sort of technique is invaluable and oft-needed.
I, too, have posted a 'feature' request (or rather, a 'bug report').

Zoom Viewer Issue

So in the last couple of days Aperture has become unusable. I cannot view anything in the main window unless it is zoomed to a percentage. The zoom viewer which is supposed to make the image fill the screen wont show anything. Photos flash and then disappeared or get stuck on an enlarged preview. I have tried to regenerate previews, rebuild and repair the library to no avail. It applies to all file types - jpg and RAW.
Any suggestions or solutions???
This is a seriously massive flaw making the entire application unsuable!
Compromised view
Zoomed in view

Have you tried to remove your Aperture Preference file? If this file is corrupted, it can cause similar symptoms.
Quit Aperture (and in MacOS Lion log off and on again, to ensure that Aperture really quits).
In the Finder choose Go to folder from the Go menu.
Type~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field. Press the Go button.
Remove the "com.apple.Aperture.plist" file from the Preferences folder.
If this should not help, post back.

URL-linked slides in presenter view?

I have created some Keynote slides that contain Web View insertions -- shots of live Web pages. I want to click on these in my Keynote presentation using a projector. But I have not figured out how to do this. The two-slide view I have as a presenter on my PowerBook allows me to scroll over each of those two slides, but I have to scroll to the projected slide on the big screen to get a live pointer that I can then click to engage my browser to open that Web site. But the screen is BEHIND ME during the presentation. What am I doing wrong? Why can't Keynote give me the ability to be able to click on slides in presenter view so I can open those live Web sites from there? Help ...
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Thanks, Gary. I also have ended up mirroring the display in order to have hyperlinks available. The problem with that, however, is that one forfeits the advantages of the many tools that are built into the presentation mode.
Most significantly, when mirroring displays I can not see the note secton. When lecturing, it would be very helpful to be able to refer to details that I want to use for embellishment, but that I do not want to include in the slides themselves. I would also like to use notes to remind me to put a particular question to the class.
Also significant is not being able to view the upcoming slide/bullet, nor the clock, which would make it much easier to keep things flowing smoothly and at the right pace.
I really hope Apple makes hyperlinks active in presenter view in the next update. It's hard to understand why it's not the case currently.

Editing a slide DURING presentation

Hello,
I am wondering whether editing a slide while presenting it on the second monitor is possible.
This would be great for brainstorming ideas (eg. fill a table with ideas on several issues, according to the audience's feedback).
I tired several times, but it didn't work. Sure Live Quartz technology is powerful enough to do so... so is this feature available ? Is it planned ?

No, you can't edit a slide while it's being displayed, but there are applications that allow you to draw over the slide (those drawings can't be saved in any way other than a screenshot, though*). I think it can be done, but Keynote is more of a straightforward presentation tool than a brainstorming app, so I wouldn't imagine that this is on the list of "things to do".
But, you can always send feedback to Apple
http://www.apple.com/feedback/keynote.html
*speaking of screenshot, if you change the format of the file being captured to PDF, would that separate the image into layers allowing you to see the foreground images OVER the background or is it all flattened into a bitmap?

I am trying to get a good copy of my home video on DVD using IDVD. On editing the video all the viewing screens show the video perfectly in HD. When I burn the video to DVD all the end results are buzzy with squiggly lines. Any fix? Thanks?

Hi
There are several layers to this Q
A. There are no HD in DVD - DVD is as standard only SD-Video what ever tools used to produce it !
iDVD or DVD-Studio Pro or Roxio Toast™ - will only make SD-Video on DVD
B. DVD can be better or worse
• Using "Share to iDVD" is no good way - Better is Share to Media Browser and as Large (NOT HD as result will be worse)
• Using iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - are not tools to chose if highes quality is of importance - iMovie up to HD6 or FinalCut any version is far better as they send over all lines to iDVD and not only every second one.
• Using Right encoder quality depending on movie and Manu duration is very important
• Use of high quality brand of DVD - is important - I use Verbatim DVD-R
• Type of DVD - DVD-R plays on more DVD-Players (even old ones)
• Burn speed - I set it down to x4 - resulting in less burn errors - plays on more players
• I secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up Mac OS hard disk as iDVD and Mac OS needs this and it can not be taked from other hard disks - has to be here.
• What You feed iDVD does matter
Video codecs
Audio file formats
Photo file formats

CS4: Editable Region locked in design view - weird bug in CS4?

Hi,
I've the following issue to report: My template based webpages contain 3 editable regions. One of them (cText_m0) refuses editing in desgin view though it's editable (colored code) in code-view. Neither ALT+click nor doubleclick helps.
URL of one of the pages afflicted: http://www.schule.suedtirol.it/Lasis/r3.htm
The problem did not occur in DW-Versions minor to CS4.
Is there an issue with the page or with DW CS4?
Thanks for helping me.

Regarding the XML declaration that Nancy suggested omitting,
the XHTML
specs suggest using the line, but it is not required if the
page uses
either UTF-8 or UTF-16 character encoding. See
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/#strict
where is says in part, "An XML
declaration is not required in all XML documents; however
XHTML document
authors are strongly encouraged to use XML declarations in
all their
documents. Such a declaration is required when the character
encoding of
the document is other than the default UTF-8 or UTF-16 and no
encoding was
determined by a higher-level protocol."
IE only pays attention to the DOCTYPE if it is the very first
thing in the
page. Put anything before the doctype and IE will drop to
quirks mode.
That's just an IE bug that you'll have to live with.

It is possible your sequence settings do not match your source material. In the Project Pane, drag one of your source clips to the New Item icon at the bottom right, and release the mouse. That will create a new sequence that matches the properties of the source clip. See if that helps. If so, edit in the new sequence.
