How can i outline an object made of shapes without outlining the individual shapes or marging them

How can i outline a visual shape made of a group of elements (vector shapes) without outlining the individual elements or margeing them togeather. I would normally go by marging them togeather but client requested they be unmaged

Here is another way
similar but a little different
group the objects
select the group in the appearance panel and go to Effects>Path>Outline Object
then add a new stroke to the Group
then select that stroke in the appearance panel and go to Effect>Pathfinder>Add
the go to Effect>Path>offset path if you wish to give it some space around the object like such

    How can i transfer iPhone 3G photo to iPhoto without repeating the same photo to iPhoto?

    Sorry, you question doesn't make sense. If you're trying to import photos, in your camera roll, to iPhoto, iPhoto doesn't import them twice.

    How can you upload photos from iPhoto to FaceBook without having the sync where if you delete from iPhoto you delete

    I think you have to have the files on your HD. So either put them in iPhoto or copy them to a folder in Finder, and from there you can upload to Facebook.

  • How can i add a hashmap to another hashmap without lossing the second one?

    hi all
    can anyone show me how to add a hashmap object to another hashmap object without lossing anything that was in the second one. thanks

    hi all
    can anyone show me how to add a hashmap object to
    another hashmap object without lossing anything that
    was in the second one. thanksDo you want to add the hashmap itself to the hashmap? If so:firstMap.put("someKey", secondMap); should do it. But I suspect you want to add all key/value pairs from the second map to the first, in which case the "putAll" method is what you're looking for. Note that the putAll method will replace the values in the first map with any values with the same key that are in the second map.
    Good Luck

    I think your VI works and if I understand what your input data looks like and the output that you want is, does it?I really can't see a better way. Does it not work for what you want? What form is the actual data in as you receive it? (not how it is displayed by the display setting of the string control) You have the string control set the “Hex display” and that may be confusing some of us as to what the actual input data is.
    And what you want your output to look like. Do you get a “stream” of bytes that are the actual numbers in the form of a string?or Do you get a “string” of ASCII char that represent numbers?
    These are two different things, but may look alike depending on the display setting of your controls are set.
     Changing the display mode of a control or indicator does not change the under lying data. It only changes the way your eye “see” it, not how LabVIEW “sees” it.  We need to know what your raw input string looks like.
    tbob's snipit assume your data is one way and your VI assumes another.

  • My computer where my itunes library is stored is no longer accessible.  how can i add songs to my ipod nano without losing the songs already on it.

    The computer where i have my itunes library is no longer accessible.  How can I add new songs to my  Ipod nano without losing the song already on it?

    You will need that library copied from the old computer. If not, then you can take a look at this in getting 3rd party software to recover your library from the iPod. Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

  • How can I change a color of an image without affecting the texture, but based on a pantone pick?

    Here is an image of a paintbrush stroke that shows the texture of the paint.  I want to change the color to a specific pantone green in order to match a specific color pallet.  Rather than just using hue saturation to "guess" at the color (no pantone number), is there a way I can actually set a base color without losing the texture?

    You can only use the picker values as a guide on an image with many tones.
    I presume you are going to print as cmyk, so find the mix of the target colour and make a 'solid colour' adjustment layer and choose that mix. Then set the adj layer properties to 'hue' which should do it.
    Otherwise, add a 'hue/saturation' layer (and click on colorize in the adj layer palette) and move the slider to suit.
    If you convert to greyscale, you could colorize the pic with the spot colour too.

  • How  can I open a document that i saved without buying the latest pages?

    I saved two documents last week and now I can not open them without "buying the latest version of pages"  Is there anyway to save this information without being forced to buy new software.   I have been happy with my old pages and saved it with my old pages and not I can not open it with out buying the new version.  I feel that apple is holding my document hostage.  Any help would be appreciated.

    DM,
    You probably already have V5 without knowing it. Unless someone else edited your documents with V5, it was you, and you just need to make sure that you are using V5 for edits.
    Right-Click the docment in Finder and choose Open With: Pages V5.x
    I'd be surprised if you didn't find that option.

  • How can I temporarily remove games from my iPhone without losing the app data included?

    My iPhone 5 is running low on space so I plan on cleaning it out soon. I have a lot of games on my iPhone with app data included that I don't play as often. I was planning on removing these temporarily because some day I might want to play them again but I'm afraid I won't have my progress anymore. Ex: My levels conquered on Cut The Rope or my worlds on Minecraft PE.
    So is there a solution out there for me to be able to temporarily remove my games without losing their app data? All feedback is greatly appreciated and I how there is a way to do this!

    The only way to recover the data for a deleted app would be to restore from a backup made before you deleted the app.  Apps and their data are integral to eachother, so deleting one deletes the other.
    If you have a backup, you could restore from that to restore an App's data, but a restore is also an all or nothing option - the restore will restore everything to the state of the backup, not single or selective items.
    Other than that, there is no way to acheive what you wish - if you delete the app you delete its data.

  • My Apple TV is having problems with slideshows for photos synced from iTunes. How can I make it play thew whole slideshow without starting the loop again half way through?

    My Apple TV randomly returns to the beginning in the middle of the slideshow for no reason. I don't habve the photos on shuffle
    I started the slide show many times and somtimes it got through 20 photos, other times 50. Then all of a sudden, it goes back to the beginning and starts again. It's so frustrating as there is no reason for this and it doesn't loop back to the start on the same photo each time. I have about 350 photos in the album and they all loaded fine as thumbnails before I played the slideshow.
    Can anyone help please?
    Thanks, Adam

    Have solved my own problem. My PC sits on the floor so I have a four-port USB hub on my desktop with one port in use. I use one of the other three ports for USB-related task. As I was shutting down for the night I had a - what turned out to be inspired - thought about whether there was an adequate power supply from the hub. I then tried the iPod USB connection directly into the front of my machine and everything worked. It seems that an inadequate power supply was the cause of this strange set of conditions.

  • How can I add an iPad to Apple Configurator without losing the user's settings, folders, etc?

    When attempting to add an iPad that has already been in use (for some time) by a particular user into Apple Configurator, I end up having to either wipe the iPad entirely as if it is a new iPad, or restore the user's settings and configuration from iCloud during mini-setup. It seems to be one choice or the other.
    Is there a way to add the "old" iPad into Apple Configurator for management purposes yet still be able to restore the user's settings from iCloud? That is - items like: folders, pictures, email settings, app data?

    This isnt true. Connecting an unsupervised device to configurator and supervising it will wipe the device, there is no way around that. You can attempt an iCloud restore from here, but anything not backed up prior to supervising the device will be erased when supervising it. I have never tried to restore data from an unsupervised iPad so I have no clue if everything will come back.
    Let me clarify... You can successfully restore an iCloud backup of an unsupervised iPad to a new (i.e. different) iPad and have it Supervised with data intact. The process below will allow Configurator to Supervise a device without wiping it when an iCloud backup from a different unsupervised iPad is restored to it.
    Try it… Get 2 new unsupervised iPads… we'll call them iPad "A" and iPad "B." Take iPad "A" and install a few apps, take a few photos, change the background, create a new document in Pages, etc. Run an iCloud backup of iPad "A" using your Apple ID. This is our unsupervised backup of iPad "A."
    Now take new unsupervised iPad "B" and start running through the setup assistant. When you get to the restore screen, choose to restore from iCloud backup. Log in with your Apple ID. Select the backup for iPad "A." The backup will restore and then the iPad will restart. Once it restarts, you get to a "Hello" screen on the iPad. At this point, plug the iPad into your Configurator computer. On the Prepare screen, turn Supervision ON and select "Don't restore backup." Click Prepare.
    Configurator will not wipe the iPad. It will run through the supervision process but not wipe it. Once complete, you'll see that iPad "B" is now exactly the same as iPad "A", but if you go to Settings -> General -> Profiles on iPad "B" you will see a Supervision profile installed.
    The key here is to use a different iPad from the originally backed up iPad. You can't restore the backup of iPad "A" to iPad "A" again and supervise it without wiping it. But you can take the backup of unsupervised iPad "A" and restore it to iPad "B" and retain apps, data, and settings of iPad "A" but with the Supervision profile.
    Hope this clarifies things!
    ~Joe
    I see where your going with that. I dont have any way to reproduce this scenario in my environment, but I will take your word for it that this works. I have only ever plugged in an unsupervised device to configurator and gone through the setup, which always wipes the device. If your saying theres a way around that you should give that a shot OP.

  • How can I export images out of LR3.5 and have the file numbers watermarked on them?

    Ladies & Gents,
    I'm trying to export a large number of images out of LR3.5 and want to show a unique reference number on each one as a watermark, so that customers can easily state which photo they're interested in.  I can't find anything on the export settings of the software with the exception of copyright symbols etc, but this just puts the same watermark on each photo and I want to number them individually and make it easy for the customer to identify an image.
    I'm guessing there will be a 'plug in' to do this and I don't mind paying for it, I would just rather do everything in LR and not have to then use a second piece of software and re-export all the images for a second time.
    One last thing..... I'm thinking of upgrading to LR4 in the near future and so I would like to be able to use any suggestions on that platform as well (if possible)
    Many thanks,
    Luke

    You can't - it the entire operating system or none at all.
    Only way to keep your OS is to use a third party web browser - besides firefox - there is also Opera - have been using that with Snow Leopard for about 6 months.
