Ichat Theatre - screen layout

Hi all
I can not get the screen layout to equal that as presented in Apple promotional material http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/ichat.html
every time I share a keynote file, the video feed appears on the slide itself in a corner (can be move and re-scaled), but I can not get it to appear in the lower left hand corner off of the slide as illustrated. Is there a setting somewhere that I have missed.
Thanks

I would not guarantee that an Apple page would get updated as quickly as it should.
This page always lags behind in the OS field and the Version field
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ichat.html
(I do notice that the OS version is now up-to-date but the iChat version is not - a change since Christmas)

  • IPhoto slideshow in iChat theatre less than screen resolution

    I tried to share an iPhoto album in iChat theatre. It is presented as a slideshow but the photos looked very unsharp/pixelated, actually lower than screen resolution. If I drag individual pictures from iPhoto to the lower part of the iChat window (which means show that picture in iCHat theatre), they look fine.
    It can't be a bandwidth issue, as I tried it in my LAN.
    Anybody else observed that issue?

    Thanks Ralph,
    it did help a bit.
    But I probably expected too much from iChat theatre. I initially thought, iChat theatre would be a great way to present an iPhoto slideshow remotely with life comments. But everything you share is basically the smallish slideshow window you see on the sender side upscaled to whatever the recipient has set its iChat window to and heavily compressed. Seems like iChat combines everything on the sender side into a single H.264 stream and sends it over the net, thus the heavy compression artifacts even on still images.
    So it is ok for some quick snaps in mobile phone quality but not for quality slideshows. Looks like I have to stick with web galleries or Photo-casting for these.
    If anyone knows of another solution to present a slide with higher quality over the net, with the ability to do life comments, which implements at least, that you know, which slide the recipient is watching currently, please leave a note.

  • IChat Theatre slows upload speed to 80kbps

    Has anyone else noticed this? I know it's been like that for iChat screen sharing for some time but now I see it happening with iChat Theatre as well. For example, the video chat runs at 700kbps in both directions until someone starts iChat Theatre the bandwidth is immediately cut to 80kbps. My ISP does not traffic shape in any way therefore it seems to be iChat software. At these speeds, like screen sharing resolution is too low to be watchable.

    I have a Dlink DGS-2208 gigabit switch connected to my Actiontec router. I just upgraded my FIOS speed to 35/35 from 25/15.
    If I connect my computer directly into the Actiontec router, I get 35/35 speeds just fine.
    But, if I connect the computer to the DGS-2208 and then connect the switch to the router, I get 35 down still, but only 15 up. This is very consistent. If I go through the swich it's always 35/15. If I go straight to the router, it's 35/35.
    The DGS-2208 is a gigabit switch. Why is it cuting my upload speed in half to only 15.
    I would also note, that when I had 25/15, the switch also worked at 15 up. That is, it worked at full speed. But it can't seem to go over 15 up.
    Any suggestions are welcome.
    I don't know why you'd be having the problem you're seeing, but just for informational purposes, I have a Linksys EG008W gigabit switch in the same configuation you describe and  I get 43/32 mb/s down/up.
    A couple of thoughts:
    Do you have another computer on your LAN, connected to the switch and, if so, what kind of throughput to you get between the computers?
    Have you tried a different Cat 5e/6  cable between the switch and the router?
    And have you looked at your NIC's properties and tried forcing it in to 1000 mb/s full duplex?

  • No more iChat theatre?

    This was a feature I used all the time with a few of my clients.  We live quite far away from one another so I can just open up iChat theatre, go over the project, and make changes in real time.
    I can't find this anymore, nor is there any mention of it in the documentation.
    Any work around anyone knows about?  I'd reallllly like to see this feature added back again.  Worked so good and saved me so much time.

    The iChat Theatre option is gone.
    Maybe they make something that it work with Facetime?
    But for now you can share your whole screen with you client with screen sharing.

  • New FCS with iChat Theatre support

    Good day..
    With the new release of FCS it brags about iChat theatre support to collaborate with others. Not sure how to do this since the existing Apple LCDs do not have isight, nor does Apple make or sell the stand-alone isight cam. The newer 24"LED monitor is made to connect to laptops. Even the demo vid on tis feature does not show the setup only the onscreen view of ichat.
    I'd love it if they finally put isights in all the screens (or have the option). I'd swap-out one of my 30" for that same size with a builtin isight version. Obviously they can do it, its in the 24".

    Until Apple makes the product you would like to have, you can choose which cam to use with iChat.
    Apple Stores sell this one: http://store.apple.com/us/product/TS665VC/A?mco=NDkwODcyNA
    However, other "UVC" cams will also work on any Mac that is running OS X 10.4.9 or later with no additional drivers or other software required. Just be sure any new webcam you buy meets the "UVC" standards so they work "as is" with your Mac's OS.
    Another alternative, although not a webcam, is to use a camcorder that connects via Firewire (if you already have or are planning to buy a camcorder anyway). Just plug it in and try it with iChat to determine with certainty whether it has the compatibility you want.  Compared to dedicated webcams, a compatible Firewire camcorder's higher quality images may be worth its generally less convenient and clumsier connections.
    You could also consider Firewire webcams. A couple that may still be available are:
       Fire-i http://www.firewire-1394.com/fire-i-webcam-unibrain.htm and
      iSweet http://www.welovemacs.com/isweet1.html
    This old review gives you some opinions on the relative merits of a few different Firewire webcams:
      http://www.macworld.com/article/27783/2003/12/firewirewebcams.html
    Be aware that some webcams, particularly lower cost or older models, may not have integrated microphones, auto exposure, auto focus, or other features that might be important to you. To avoid disappointment, determine you requirements and carefully check the features of any webcam you consider buying.
    EDIT ADDED
    By the way, in my testing with apps other than FC, (images/videos from iPhoto, QT, and Preview,) iChat Theatre image quality at the other end is FAR below that seen versus sending the original file to your contact. As an FCP user, I expect you demand high-quality video. Again in my experience, iChat Theatre can work as a quick preview, but it is NOT useable for sharing or collaborating on critical video or images. As seen in this search, I am not the only one who has noticed this.

  • How do I get a Up One Level in the Topics page of my screen layout?

    I am trying to insert an "Up One Screen" on my Topic page in my screen layouts and it's only allowing me to add a hyperlink to the Table of Contents. Any suggestions?

    What do you mean by Up One Screen? Where is Rh only allowing you to add a hyperlink to the TOC?
    What sort of help are you generating?
    What version of Rh are you using?

  • Error of Specify Chart-of-Dep.-Dependent Screen Layout/Acct Assignment

    Hi,
    There are 2 set-up parts:
    General setting that is working for all depreciation area's
    Chart-of-Dep.-Dependent Screen Layout/Acct Assignment (Tcode: ANK1)
    When you have only 1 area it don't have sense to create Chart-of-Dep.-Dependent Screen Layout/Acct Assignment.
    For me  20 Chart-of-Dep are using the standard one and for 1 is using his own Chart-of-Dep.-Dependent Screen Layout/Acct Assignment   
    This is the reason for the errors

  • PO Screen Layout - Goods Receipt Indicator

    Hi Guru,
    I need help in opening up the Goods Receipt indicator in PO for editing. Can someone guide me on which field in the GR/IR control selection group should I be changing in customizing in order to open up this field?
    If there are other configuration involved, please let me know too. Thanks.
    Regards,
    new@SAP

    Hi
    the field GR in the PO item is controlled by the usage of material being used, Account assignment category.
    In case of material which is Quantified & Valuated in the Plant, you cannot remove the GR & IR flag.
    In case of account assigned PO's this indicator is changeable.
    Using screen layouts you cannot control them.
    Thanks & Regards

  • Screen Layout Field in the Asset Master Record

    What is the use of the screen in the asset master record, ANLA-FELEI?
    We have some assets where there are different values between this screen layout and the screen layout defined at the asset class (i.e. through configuration).
    It seems the one defined within the asset class takes precedence.

    HI
    Scree Layout controls the diplay of fields, it may not be necessary for a user to use all the fileds provided by SAP. Hence the options like Required, Optional and Suppress are used to control the screen diplay and the TABs to be displayed based on the need.
    Asses within the same class will have same fields since the screen layout are assigned to an Asset class.
    Scree layout for the Tab Depreciation Area can also be controlled with the screen layout defied for the Depreciation Area.  With this one can have different screen layouts per dep. area.
    Hope i'm clear to  you.
    Thanks,
    Vijay

  • Group Asset Screen Layout  disabled fields

    Hi All,
    We have created asset masters with Book and Tax depreciation, For tax depreciation we are assigning Group asset. Issue is while doing take over value with t- Code AS92,  system should  propose the field of APC Value and Accumulated Depreciation Value but  both the fields are  proposing only for Book Depreciation
    In case of  tax depreciation APC value is editable and Accumulated Dep value is disabled,  requirement is we need to enter both the values for tax dep along with group asset assignment.
    This is happening only when we are assigning group asset while creation of asset master. if you donu2019t assign group asset to the asset master then system is allowing us to enter both values in both the depreciation area.
    I have checked necessary configuration regarding screen layout and not found any solution.
    Kindly help in this regard.

  • How to make use of the 'Groups' in Screen Layout?

    Hi All,
    I have a screen with 10 input fields (F1, F2, .. F10).
    I set the 'Groups' attribute in the screen layout to 'DIS'.
    How could I make use of this 'Groups' attribute so that when I loop the screen, I will only disable fields with the 'Groups' attribute set to 'DIS'? Thanks
    I tried the following codes, but it's not working:
      LOOP AT SCREEN.
        IF SCREEN-GROUPS IS NOT 'DIS'.
          SCREEN-INPUT = '1'.
          MODIFY SCREEN.
        ENDIF.
      ENDLOOP.
    It says ==> The data object 'SCREEN' does not have a component called 'GROUPS'.

    In the Attributes of a screen field, there is an attribute called "Groups". This has 4 options for input (4 text boxes)
    SCREEN has 4 fields GROUP1, GROUP2, GROUP3 and GROUP4.
    The first text box under Groups attribute corresponds to SCREEN-GROUP1,
    2nd text box for SCREEN-GROUP2
    3rd text box for SCREEN-GROUP3
    4th text box for SCREEN-GROUP4
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • Screen layout for Special G/L indicator

    Hi everyone!
    I would like to know if you create a new special g/l indicator, you can change the screen layout that the system gives you. I need to create some which can have a screen layout similar to the one used in 01 key account.
    Thanks in advanced,
    Olga

    Hi Santosh,
    I´m going to give you some examples about what I want to do. First, I would like to used the special G/L indicator H security deposit which is configurated like as others special G/L transaction types. When I post with this Special G/L indicator the system shows me some fields in the accounting screen layout such as "Due on", "Invoice reference", "Assignment", etc. I would like to change this screen layout because I need fields like "Payment terms", "Payment block indicator", etc. What I did was to change field group status of the reconcilation account that this special G/L indicator has, and key accounting configuration that this special G/L indicator uses. It doesn't work because I make these fields optional and the system didn´t show me those.
    Other I need to do It's make new special G/L indicators because I need to post with a different reconciliation account and I need to configurated the screen layout with fields such us Payment terms, Payment blick indicator, etc. I mean I need to create my own screen layout.
    I don´t know if this gives you more details about what I want to do.
    Thanks so much.
    Best regards, Olga

  • Change in Screen Layout of PO for a particular Item category

    Hi,
    We are facing a typical issue after Upgrade of our system from 4.6C to ECC 6.0.
    Whenever we try to create a PO (in the newly upgraded system) with the Item category S (Third Party PO), the material number field goes blank and it becomes Non-Editable (even before saving the PO)...
    However, on saving, EKPO table has the entries for the material number specified before entering the Item Category S. If we try to display the PO, it shows blank in the MATNR field.
    This works fine with other item categories......we see this problem only with the item category S.
    All the configurations (Screen Layout for Document Type, External Representation of Item category) are fine....but still we are facing this problem....
    Any suggestions on this?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Gaurishankar

    Hi Ninad,
    I think I have mentioned it very clearly that it works for other item categories assigned to the same document type. It is a very basic setting that one has to check for issues related to PO screen layouts and I have done all those checks.
    As stated earlier, this issue has come up after Upgrade, so just want to know if there is any known SAP Note or solution to this problem (if someone has faced it earlier).
    However, thanks for your reply...
    Regards,
    Gaurishankar

  • Need help with Responsive HTML5 screen layout in RoboHelp HTML 11

    I have a few questions/issues regarding screen layouts for Responsive HTML5 output in RoboHelp HTML 11.
    First off, I decided to just use the Theme1_Standard layout that came with the program (only other default option was Theme2_Government) and started customizing the layout. I originally added a company logo to the 'Header' component in the Customization dialog, but have since decided to remove it. I can't seem to do this from the dialog, so I tried just deleting the image file from the whole project. The file is gone, but the logo is still there. This is only displayed in the header when a topic is displayed, it does not appear in the header at the TOC, Index, Search screen, etc. How do I get rid of this???
    Secondly, the text in the header for the topic screens appears differently than the one on the screens for the TOC, Index, Search, etc. In the former of these, the header is displayed in maroon text in a much smaller font, similar to that used in the topics. In the latter, the topic is displayed based on what I configured in the Layout Customization dialog; much larger in white text on a black background. In each case the heading text serves as a link to the default display topic shown when the help file is launched, which is fine. However, how do I get the header to be consistent across all screens (topics and TOC, Index, etc. alike)???
    As a result of these issues with the Theme1_Standard layout, I'm trying to import a different Responsive HTML5 screen layout than the two provided within RoboHelp HTML 11 (Standard and Government). I did some digging in the program help and found another layout I'd like to use (Theme3_Black.zip) at RoboHelp screen profiles and layouts. I tried importing the new layout, but it's looking for a .SLZ file and the only one in the files that came with the ZIP file is SLZConfig.xml, and I don't think that's what I need, though quite honestly, I don't know.
    I extracted the contents of the ZIP folder to a folder in the !ScreenLayout! folder within the RoboHelp project, but when I open the project, I don't see Theme3_Black as an option. I need to figure out how to import this screen layout because the color scheme matches the one used in the program for which I am writing the help. How do I import and apply this other screen layout???
    Any tips, tricks, or guidance on any or all of these items would be GREATLY appreciated.
    Thanks much in advance,
    Dave

    Item two of the original post is also something I am having issues with:
    "Secondly, the text in the header for the topic screens appears differently than the one on the screens for the TOC, Index, Search, etc. In the former of these, the header is displayed in maroon text in a much smaller font, similar to that used in the topics. In the latter, the topic is displayed based on what I configured in the Layout Customization dialog; much larger in white text on a black background. In each case the heading text serves as a link to the default display topic shown when the help file is launched, which is fine. However, how do I get the header to be consistent across all screens (topics and TOC, Index, etc. alike)???"
    We have the text toggle between red, white and blue depending upon the topic selected. In the customize Selected Layout we have the title color set to white. It seems to think that it is a link and I would like to know how I can force the text to be white and to stay that way no matter which topic is selected.
