Grid transition in Keynote 3

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone else is missing the grid transition from Keynote 3?
I have a presentation from Keynote 2 that has the grid transition on it.
Yet when I open a new presentation in Keynote 3, the transition disappears.
Anyone else seeing this?
Thanks
Andy

Brian -
You are so the man!
The new question for the day, why class this transition as obsolete?
Don't get me wrong, I love blinds and fall etc but this is a pretty classy transition too.

  • I understand it is possible to have a delay of 60 s between transitions in Keynote for ipad. How do I do this?

    I understand that it is possible to have a delay of 60 s (rather than the 10 s shown on the slider) between transitions on Keynote for ipad. Can anyone tell me how to do this?

    casper,
    Are you looking at Keynote for the Mac or Keynote for iOS?
    I see that option for the Mac but not for the iPad (that's why I didn't reply earlier, I couldn't find out how to do it either other than maybe duplicating slides and inserting delays with no transition to make it look like a longer delay (no change + delay, no change + delay, etc = long delay) ).

  • HT5067 Wipe transition in Keynote lost when imported in iBooks Author

    Unfortunately, the wipe transition is not working in iBooks Author. I have a Keynote presentation with shapes that appear using the wipe transition. However, when I import the presentation in iBooks Author and preview it in iBooks, the wipe effect is completely lost

    Try exporting your book to .ibooks and load it via the iBooks App. You can then view it on your mac or sync it to your iPad. The transition might work by doing this. The normal preivew is not always reliable.
    Also, try deleting the widget and re-import the Keynote Presentation again. I have noticed that sometimes it is a hit and miss for the Keynote presentation to be imported properly (using iBook Author 2.1.1).
    Here is a link for all for the supported transitions and builds (information only):

    Best of luck!

  • Flash Transitions in Keynote 3

    I am trying to get my transition effects to export with my slide show, but it keeps giving me an error at the time of export. It does create the flash file but no transition effects are present. Is there an issue here?
    Thank you

    When you say the copy of your slides are squished, you mean the text on the slide? Is the text too short or too thin? If it's difficult to read or blurry, you may need to make the type larger before compressing. If it's changed it's "look" then we may need to take another look at your export settings.
    You can't stop Flash from looping that I know of. There may be a Keynote setting for looping that might prevent it, but I don't have access to my Mac right now.
    The music probably can't sound better because the version of Flash that Apple supports as export only used lower quality audio. Also, if your settings in Keynote for the delay on the slides aren't being adhered to in the export, that could be another issue that might not be able to be resolved.

  • Transitions in Keynote doesn't work

    Ever since I updated to IOS5, I discovered that transitions entered through my iPad 2 doesn't work.  I transferred a Powerpoint presentation through email to my iPad and opened in Keynote.  I then proceeded to add transitions to each slide.  I saw that the bottom right hand corner showed a triangle, indicating transitions were added.  But, when I pressed the Play button in Keynote and started tapping screens, the transitions didn't work.  The slides just went through one after another without transitions.  What am I doing wrong or is there a fix I need to install?
    Thanks....Johnny

    Try booting to Safe Boot (turn the computer on and hold the Shift key, you should see a progress bar before you get to the login screen). After you login, restart the computer (this will clear your Font caches among other things).
    Otherwise, you may have some bad fonts installed.
    I'd suggest using Font Book to validate ALL of your fonts, and remove any that show errors.

  • Creating an intro with grid transition

    I'd like to create an intro wich is as awesome as the one in my link, any help is appreciated (:

    greets David

    To get a more controlled appearance you may also wanna cook up your own version of these two transition effects by using Card Dance and the Mosaic Filter mattes, driven by custom greyscale maps as inputs. Otehr than that, yeah, it looks simple enough using the effects Mr. Kopriva mentioned...

  • Keynote Transitions in Powerpoint

    Is it really true that all of the transitions in Keynote will go without problem into Powerpoint? If so, it must mean that you can already do those things in Powerpoint, but I've never seen any of the "exclusively Keynote" ones. Is Apple lying or something else going on?

    Unfortunatly complex Powerpoint files with builds, tranitions, video or audio dont transfer properly into Keynote.
    An effect available in PPt with no direct equivalent  in Keynote can create havoc when converted.
    My way of thinking is, if a PPt can be converted with just a few changes to be corrected  then its worth doing.
    If its quicker or easier to redo the whole show in Keynote then thats the way I will go.
    Regretably, I dont know of a way to sort out major issues of the kind you have.

  • Keynote 6.5 Loses Ability to Keep Master Slide Objects Static for Object Transitions

    A gripe that I'm hoping many of you are as infuriated with as me – and hopefully maybe someone can point out something I am not seeing.
    In past versions of Keynote 6:
    Premise:
    An object is placed on a Master Slide (not a placeholder)
    That master is applied to slides.
    An Object Transition (Cube, Revolve, Pop, Push, Flip, Zoom Perspective) is applied to that slide (which is followed by a slide with the same master)
    Result:
    Only objects not on the master slide would animate during the transition leading to a premium feeling transition.
    Keynote 6.5
    Premise:
    Same as above
    Result:
    All objects animate, including non placeholder Master Slide objects resulting in "too much" happening on screen.
    As a presentation designer who makes a living on Keynote, this is a huge step back. I used to trick Keynote 5.3 into getting the effect that I wanted by taking screenshots of a blank slide and then making that screen shot the background of a slide. It was a time suck, often somewhat pixelated, a huge addition to file size (especially for templating), and cumbersome to make small changes like adjusting position of logos.
    Apple... I hope one of your engineers are reading this and creates a fix for this in the near future.

  • How to snap to grid in Keynote 6?

    How do I enable snap to grid in Keynote 6.0?
    From the Keynote 09 manual (the most recent manual I could find):
    To turn on master gridlines:
    1 Choose Keynote > Preferences, and then click Rulers.
    2 Select either or both of the horizontal and vertical Master Gridlines checkboxes.
    (...etc) The check boxes mentioned under step 2 are no longer there. How does this work now?
    -Ron.

    Thanks, but I see no grid option or equivalent. I see a way to align objects to each other, and to some manually placed guides, but no grid.
    In Keynote '09, I had set up the grid at 10 pixel increments. I deliberately did not align objects to each other, because there are so many objects on a slide, some of which may be off-grid. This grid setting seems to have been lost when upgrading from '09 to 6.0, and I must now rely on more accurate eye-hand coordination.

  • Which transitions are supported in Keynote iPad?

    I use some simple transitions in Keynote '09 on the Mac that work flawlessly. Usually dissolve, sometimes several on a single slide, and sometimes with grouped objects.
    It seems as if grouped object transitions on K-iPad is no good, and also seems as if more than one transition on a slide is a problem -- either doesn't work or is put in the wrong place.
    Is there a list of which transitions are supported, etc? I can't find it in the Apple support pages, but perhaps I'm not looking in the right place.

    Thanks Tom for the helpful article link. Though where would one find a list of the iPad availabe fonts...?
    From Apples own text...
    Use fonts common to both the Mac and iPad platforms. Fonts that are not available on the iPad are replaced with the Helvetica font.
    So does the iPad tell the user which fonts are "common" ???
    Thanks again.

  • Disappearing transition effects

    In new presentations one of the slide transition effects has disappeared from the drop down menu (Grid). When I copy paste a slide from an older presentation that does have Grid transition, it is back in the menu.
    Anyone any ideas how this could have disappeared? I'm not sure exactly when this occurred but I'm pretty sure Grid was still there when I used Keynote v.3 for the first time after upgrading from v.2

    Go to your preferences and turn on the obsolete transitions and builds.
    We don't know why they are considered obsolete, but it lookks like Apple wanted to have only 25 in the list as a default. This will give you all the old ones.

  • Using Keynote with host's LCDs

    I make my living as a presenter. Always worked in PowerPoint. I end up using many different LCD projectors, but have gotten used to connecting to my PC.
    Just bought a MacBook to use transition to Keynote and I’m wondering what issues I should expect using my MacBook on host LCD projectors?
    Do most LCD’s connect via mini-DVI?
    I bought a mini-DVI to VGA connector. Does using it compromise the quality of keynote presentations?
    What resolutions do most LCD's likely support?
    macbook   Mac OS X (10.3)  
    macbook   Mac OS X (10.3)  

    In my experience, most current business projectors will display at 1024 X 768, although older/cheaper models may have a native resolution of 800 X 600. Most projectors can rescale some higher resolutions, but I'd say that you're safest to not go above 1024 X 768. Also, although some projectors will have digital inputs, many business projectors will not, and so it is vital to have the VGA connector. While you may lose a bit of quality, in the cases where you need it, you won't likely have any other option.

  • HT5067 Can you move an iBook Author file into Keynote?

    I have created an iBook for a presentation, however I would like to create a Keynote presentation of the iBook file.
    Does anyone know if an iBook file can be transitioned to keynote? If yes, how can I do this, please?
    Many thanks,
    Greg

    You might consider sharing/exporting/printing to PDF. Then covert the PDF's pages to jpegs pr pngs which can then be used to export to whatever or used directly from KN.

  • Keynote crash on bare bones Mac Mini.  Help anyone?

    Hi there,
    I'm using a new Mac Mini 2011 (2.3 Ghz, 2GB RAM, i5, Lion) to drive a public facing 55" 1080p HD TV in a retail venue.  Obviously, we want a stable system that doesn't crash.  I've only installed one piece of software on the Mini--Keynote.  I built a small (but transition complex) Keynote presentation and it runs 24/7.  On the third day of running, it "quit unexpectedly".  lol.  That's supposed to sound so much better than "crashed", right?  Anyway, it's obviously a public embarassment to have your promotional display fail. 
    I cannot understand WHY a stock mini with only Keynote installed should crash even IF the entire system and slideshow is running 24/7.  And I have NO idea how to troubleshoot this.  The only plausible explanation I can think of is a memory leak in Keynote.
    Does anyone have some suggestions on how to troubleshoot this?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  It pains me to have a public display showing a Mac crash.  I expect this with Windows, but not with a Mac.
    Thanks!

    More memory may help. I installed 8 GB ($44 from Amazon). It also bumps up the shared video memory to 512 MB.

  • Newbie to keynote; some questions and some observations about this group

    Hello, my attn was called to this group. I have seen some impressive presentations in keynote so maybe it is time to switch.
    From what?
    I do a lot of presentations. I use acrobat. Prepare my page in whatever app is best for the job; print to pdf; include fonts. By using the app of my choice I get just what I want in my slide.
    I can readily arrange slides in sorter in acrobat. Allows minimal animation, by, say, preparing the full slide, make copies, and delete progressively. sort to show from the least to the fullest; works for me.
    pdf allows touch up text and adding text, which I often think of at the last minute. Drawing an oval or line to point to something. For heavier editing open a slide in illustrator and save as pdf.
    So, as I say it works for me. Not glitzy. Certainly pretty easy to produce decent slides.
    Most everyone has acrobat on his/her machine, so if I take my presentation on a stick, it can work, nicely, cross platform. Very few occasions when that didnt work.
    So I would like to hear folks' experiences. Can you take your presentation on a stick and show it on someone else's computer?
    What about posting presentations. I generally put my pdf on my web page, giving the audience the url; seeems to work fine. Again I ask for experience.
    Seems like quite a learning curve for keynote. And I browsed about 4 pages of discussion on this board before posting. I saw mostly complaints and problems, and not all that many solutions. And very few raves.
    So, I would welcome some testimonials.
    PS I dont want to do anything so glitzy that folks will come up to me after the talk and say nice animations; better they talk to me about the substance of my talk.
    thanks in advance
    -trog

    Welcome to the forums, troglodyte.
    If you want a testimonial, I think that Keynote is hands-down the easiest to use presentation tool, and produces by far the best-looking results. It is far ahead of PowerPoint.
    Keynote produced beautiful results, even when converted to PDF, as it has very nice graphics features (e.g., drop shadows, masking, transparency). If you are most comfortable with PDF, and don't need animations or transitions, then Keynote still has a lot to offer. That said, much of the "wow-factor" of Keynote comes from its lovely and sophisticated transitions and animations.
    (These features needn't be just eye-candy, either, as they can serve to emphasize points and help unify certain material. For example, I use transitions that are more obvious, such as the "Doorway", to mark major changes of topic in my presentations, and more subtle ones, like "Dissolve", to change between related slides. This "grammar" of transitions helps to make the presentation more comprehensible.)
    Keynote is not cross-platform, so you can't put a native Keynote presentation on a memory stick and be assured that it will work on someone else's computer. However, PDFs make from Keynote should function just fine. Alternatively, you can use various of the other exporting options in Kenote, including Quicktime, Flash, and PowerPoint, to provide more cross-platform compatibility than Keynote does (each of these conversions has its own limitations however). And several of these formats are also appropriate for web deployment.
    I find Keynote extremely easy to use. Do realize that these forums are primarily intended for troubleshooting, so you won't find a lot of generic compliments to the application.
