  • How do I get text to flow from one page to the next in Pages 5?

    How do I get text to flow from one page to the next in Pages 5 with the Maverick system?

    What may be overlooked in Pages v5 is the notion of combining Text Boxes via the Menu > View > Show Arrange Tools. When you select two Text Boxes, an extra panel unfolds at the bottom of the Arrange Tools window. Uncheck one Text Box and this panel abruptly disappears.
    One can achieve text flow effects between Text Boxes differently based on how one positions the Text Box overlap, and choice of effect above. Though not the accustomed flow found in Pages ’09 v4.3, flow does occur. Consider the possibilities of combining a Shape and a Text box to cut an irregular Text box.
    If I create two Text Boxes and position them side by side with outline touching and choose Unite, this creates one larger Text Box and text flows across and down. On the otherhand, if I overlap the upper left corner of a lower Text Box over one above and to the left, then choose Union, pasted text fills the first Text Box and then flows across and down into the other box. Here is a Union example:
    Intersect will leave a small Text Box where the two overlap, so not much value there. Subtract will cut a chunk out of one Text Box that is the size of the overlapping piece of the second Text Box:
    And Intersect will leave an island in the center where the two Text Box overlap, with flow jumping over this bridge.
    Clearly, this is not what we were accustomed to in the past, but with imagination, style, and layout tuning, it does offer alternative Text Box creativity and layout. Of course, there is the option of simply returning to the previous Pages version for true Text Box linking that most will want to use.

    Hi!
    I have a series of QuickTime files that I am trying to
    present in a nice
    interface. I know how I can create this effect in Flash- but
    given the
    number of .movs I have, I am thinking of sticking to QT. The
    example I have
    in mind is
    http://www.apple.com/aperture/quicktours/
    I went through the source code and tried to replicate it by
    changing some of
    the values but it does not seem to work. I thought about
    using frames to
    ease complication but I find frames cumbersome. I am open to
    suggestions but
    would prefer to keep the video clips in QT versus converting
    to FLV.
    Thank you.

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    Welcome to the forum.
    It will be difficult to compose this effect in FCE without commercial plugins like Nattress's Big Box of Tricks (G Glow dissolve).
    But you can try this: create a colorized transparent document (yellow and red around the frame) in Photoshop. Save in PNG. Import into FCE.
    Put it on V2, over the edit point for your video clips in V1.
    Try to keyframe opacity values, animate the position with erratic displacements and add some twirling or distord effects (that can be keyframed too).
    With some patience, I'm sure that you can achieve a such effect.

  • How can I get pubished parameters to display the available settings

    how can I get pubished parameters to display the available settings?

    according to the online help, I'm supposed to click on Title to get to the titles settings as follows
    "Adjust a title’s settings
    You can modify a title’s default settings in the Title inspector.
    Select a title in the Timeline.
    Choose Window > Show Inspector (or press Command-4), and click the Title button at the top of the pane that appears.
    Adjust the available settings as needed.
    Note:  You can also keyframe many of the settings in both the Title and Text inspectors."
    Gsoing to the Text inspector, there does not seem to be anything in the menu where I can change the color of the text.   Based on the photo that appears with the above instructions --it appears the ability to change ink color is under the Published Parameters that is the menu I cannot get to 'drop'

  • I have an ipod touch 2 and rebuilt my laptop.  Reinstalled ITUNES and can't find my applications on ITunes after login.  I tried to activate Itunes again but it didn't.  How can I get my applications to display on ITUNEs?

    I have an Ipod Touch 2 and rebuilt my laptop.  Reinstalled ITUNES and can't find my applications on ITunes after login.  I tried to activate Itunes again but it didn't.  How can I get my applications to display on ITUNEs?

    It sounds like you essentially have a new computer and unless you restored from a backup your iTunes library would be empty.  You can transfer your iTunes purchases from your iPod to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    SInce you changed syncing computers. after you move the stuff you need to restore the iPod to factory defaults and sync the stuff back to your iPod.  If you had the iPod backup file you could restore from backup.
    If you have non-iTunes pruchases you can copy them to your computer by using one of the third-party programs discussed in this previous discussion:

  • How do I get a 0 to display when a count = 0 (zero)? (The cell is blank)...

    (Running Business Objects Release 2 (Web-I), No other reporting modules)
    How do I get a 0 to display when a count = 0 (zero)? (The cell is blank)...
    In my reports, I count the number of tests of one of our products and another count on the number of failures.  I then use a simple formula to give me the defect rate percentage (DR%)
    The universe objects used in the calculation are:
    Assembly Number (dimension)
    Human Sn (dimension)
    Test Code Description (dimension)
    I created a variable (called [Count Assys]) that counts the number of Assemblies Tested:
    Formula: =Count([Assembly Number];All)
    Another variable (called [Failed Count]) counts the number of failed tests:
    Formula: =Count([Test Code Description];All) Where ([Test Code Description] <> "FUNCTIONAL TESTS PASSED")
    NOTE: There is a "not equal to sign" between [Test Code Description] and "FUNCTIONAL..." above, but the forum is blanking it when I preview the message.  Not a big deal, but it may be important for someone looking to help...
    I then have a third variable called [DR%] that divides [Failed Count] into the number of [Count Assys], which yields a number formatted as a percentage.
    Formula: =[Failed Count]/[Count Assys]
    The above works great! 
    The problem is: when I have a zero defect count (everything passes), the cell is blank, so the percentage variable remains blank.  I want a zero (0) to appear if nothing failed so the percentage appears as 0%
    I've searched this forum completely and have tried several Properties changes and different variable strings (like =If([Failed Count]<1,0) and the cell stays blank and cannot come up with an answer.
    This one seems simple to me, but everything I've tried has yielded zero <smile> results.
    Thanks,
    Charles

    Hi Charles,
    Use [Dr%] Variable formula as =if(IsNull([Dr%]);0;[DR%])
    Here IsNull returns the Boolean value of variable [Dr%] if its true then inserts 0 else the percentage values of failed tests based on the  total number of assembly tests performed.
    I Hope this is what you want to achieve....
    Thanks....

    how do i get text messaging through my macbook pro?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If you have an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch and you use iMessage, you can use it in your Mac if you want. OS X Mountain Lion includes Messages, that allows you to use iMessage.
    First, check that your computer is supported > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If so, open  > About this Mac, and see what OS X version you have:
    10.5 or older: you have to upgrade first to Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    10.6 or 10.7: open  > Software Update, and install the most recent version. Then, open the App Store and purchase OS X Mountain Lion.
    10.8: you are already using OS X Mountain Lion, so open the Messages app.
    While OS X Mountain Lion is being downloaded, make a backup of your files and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com
    If you aren't referring to iMessage, you can't send text messages in your computer

  • How do I get my TV to display what's on my computer screen (Not I-tunes)?

    How do I get my TV to display what's on my computer screen (Not I-tunes)?

    You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode. In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen.
    You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.   http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
    Or if you want to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box.
