How is the best way to make a curved line in keynote?

I have the new version of keynote but using the "curved line" in 'shapes' is not easy to make a symmetrical curved line. Can you suggest other simple ways to accomplish this?

Take the Draw a Shape tool and click in two spots. Press escape to stop drawing. Click one of the points, it will snap to horizontal. Now, take that line and move it towards the middle of the slide. It will snap to the center. Now, select the line so that it's in draw mode (points on either end are red), hold down option, and click the middle of the line to add a point. Double-click the point to make it a curved point. Hold down option and drag the curve handles (to make then equal length on both sides) then press Shift to make it snap to horizontal again.
Now, all you need to do is click the curve points while holding down shift and option to lengthen and shorten the curve points. Clicking directly on the point and moving it up and down (it should still snap to the guide line) and controlling the curve should give you a lot of flexibility. Will this do it for you?

  • How is the best way to make a mirror of your site for a Spanish version that links to the English and Visa versa

    I will need to have my site be multilingual and was wondering what the best approach to this is. The sites will be identical with the text changing from one language to another.

    Hi David,
    You can copy the pages and all its content will be copied over. You can then change the text to the desired language. For linking pages to other language pages, you need to add hyperlink on the pages to the desired language pages.

    My backup plan is to use Time Machine to make a backup to an external disk drive plus I also do a clone of my system disk. So far between the bootable clone and the Time Machine backup this plan has covered all of my needs.

    Then why are you converting iTunes purchases?
    You cannot get higher resolution by converting  the original. This goes for converting anything, not just iTunes purchases.
    Creating an AIFF will simply make the file 10 time as large with zero increase in quality.
    Don't really want to debate value of creating the new version.
    Agreed.
    You are simply wasting time and drive space converting iTunes purchases to AIFF.

    Paragon even has non-destriuctive conversion utility if you do want to change drive.
    Hard to imagine using 3TB that isn't NTFS. Mac uses GPT for default partition type as well as HFS+

  • What is the best way to make a program fit different monitor resoultions?

    In our lab all our test stations have 1280x1024 resoultion monitors. In the "other lab" all the test station monitors are 1440x900 resoultion.
    Now I am tasked with making my programs run on the test stations in the other lab. I have tried setting the options "maintain proportions of windows for different monitor resoultions" and "Scale all object on front panel as the windows resizes" and of course neither one of these options really does what I would expect it to do.
    What is the best way to make programs fit different monitor resoultions?

    J-M wrote:
    I resize the Front Panel when the program start to fit the monitor resolution.  After that, I use the "SBE_Determine If Screen Resized.vi" from TomBrass (http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Resizing-controls-on-a-tab-control-within-a-pane/td-p/1520244 ).  This vi is very useful if you don't want to monopolize the CPU with the "Panel Resize" event.
    I don't like this function for a couple reasons.  First for the example you don't need any custom code to handle the window resizing, just use a couple splitters.  Even if you did need to handle the resize, you only resize after the mouse is up after the resize which is not how normal Windows programs work they resize as the mouse moves.  So I modified the VI to resize objects as you resize the window.  Then because doing this can generate 100 events very quickly, I use a boolean in a shift register to make sure that we only handle the resize event if there is no new resize events after 0ms.  This essentially makes a lossy queue and handles the last resize event.

  • The Best Way to make your iPad battery last the longest!

    After checking many sources and also discussions here -- this is one article that pretty much sums up the best way to make your iPad battery last the longest!
    It basically comes down to JUST ONE THING (mainly) -- and that is simply REDUCING YOUR CHARGE CYCLE COUNT! And how do you do that? Well, very simply KEEP IT PLUGGED IN as much as possible. And then, doing what Apple says by doing just one full discharge - once a month.
    There are about 1000 charge cycles available for the iPad, at which point you should have 80% of the battery life left. SO ... Anything you do to slow down getting to that 1000 charge cycles, makes your iPad battery last longer. Keeping it plugged in "all the time" (or, as much as possible - since it is a portable object) slows down the process of getting to that "lessening of battery capacity". It's simply all about "charge cycles" - which then translates into "reduced battery capacity".
    Here's an article to pay close attention to:

  • What is the best way to make PSD into HTML for emails

    What is the best way to make PSDs into HTML for emails? Will the new feature in Dreamweaver work for emails as well? I am using Cheetah mail, but I need to be able to turn PSDs into HTML so I can use it in Cheetah mail.  I have a general idea of how to do this, but I'm stumped about where to begin.

    Use PShop for images only.  Use DW to create your tables and inline CSS styles.
    Many e-mail clients do not show images for security reasons.  So graphics heavy e-mails are not an optimal way to communicate with your mailing list.

  • How is the best way to send data from local database into remote database ?

    Hi all,
    I need to send data from local Oracle database into remote oracle database. Both sites connected via 128 kbps frame relay connection.
    The sending need to be done once a week, can be done nightly.
    How is the best way to do this ?
    Thank you very much,
    xtanto

    How is the best way to do this ?How much are you planning to send?
    You can use COPY command. Ensure that you have valid database link between two databases.
    Available options are:
    create - creates a new table. errors out if the destination table exists.
    replace - drop the destination table and re-creates with data.
    insert - inserts data if the destination table exists.
    append– appends data into an existing table.
    use set arraysize 5000 -The arraysize specifies the number of rows that SQL*Plus will retrieve from the database at one time.
    copy from scott/tiger@ORCL to scott/tiger@ORCL92 create new_emp using select * from emp;

  • How is the best way to manage the stats table?

    Hello!
    I have the Integration 2.1 working with an Oracle 8.1.7 db. I noticed that the table
    STATS is growing pretty fast.
    How is the best way to manage this table?... I haven't found something related with
    this issue in the documentation, but at least I want to know how to safely delete
    records from this table.
    For example, if I know the minimal time I have to keep in the table, is quite simple
    to create a shell script and/or Oracle pl/sql job to trim the table.
    I hope somebody can help me!!!!
    Thank you!
