Is there a way to hide and show the whole 3D viewer with javascript?

I'm trying to set up a pdf so that the person who's reading it can use a button to switch between a picture of the product and a 3D model of the same. The idea is that the two ways of illustrating the product can be in the same space, so that there's still room to put enough text on the front page. I have spent about three hours trying to figure this out.
Even if I hide the model withtin the 3D viewer and make the background transparent, the 3D viewer is still there, intercepting mouse clicks and showing the toolbar.
I've tried modfiying the Annot3D, by moving it off the page, because the javascript reference says that the "rect" property of Annot3D can be written, but the viewer just stays in the same location.
Is there any way to get the whole thing to go away with one button click and come back with another?
Thank you for your help and patience,
Daniel,
PS - In the past I've placed product drawings and pictures in the same place by putting them on separate layers, but I can't figure out how to get the 3D display attached to a layer.

One way you could get the same effect is to use separate pages. Disable the mouse scroll for switching pages and instead use buttons to go from one page to the other.  The user will get the impression that the annotation has appeared and disappeared.
Another hack is to use the product information as the icon on the annotation, so just disable it when you want to show the product information and make sure it lines up with an overlay of surrounding product information.

  • Is there a way to hide apps from the app store? I don't want my kids to see those "free" apps that nag you to spend real money and download their other apps! I can hide them from "purchased apps", but they still show up when browsing for new apps!

    Is there a way to hide them so that my kids will never see them when looking for new apps?

    Not other than parental oversight. On the computer you can implement Parental Controls on a separate user account that they would use. You can then block certain websites. But you cannot do that on the iPad.
    You could change your iTunes account such that they cannot access it in order to buy or download apps.

  • Is there any way under iOS7 to show the full home screen without the 3D band at the bottom reducing picture size?

    Is there any way under iOS7 to show the full home screen without the 3D band at the bottom reducing picture size? I want to see full pictures from my camera roll, not "special effects" from Apple..

    By 3D band are you referring to the Dock area where apps like Safari and Mail live? If so there is no way to remove this.

  • Is there any way to load and play the iPad scrabble app on my Macbook?  i can't believe there is no scrabble app for my mac

    Is there any way to load and play the ipad scrabble app on my macbook?

    There hasn't been a Scrabble version for OS X since 10.3 -10.4 on PPC, the intel swtich and they just left.
    Scrabble owners will sue the living daylights out of anything that looks like it or uses the name.
    Would love to play on my new Mac latop
    Apple in their infinite wisdom didn't allow iOS apps to run/ported  as widgets etc on OS X Dashboard like many users requested long time ago.
    There is no Scrabble widget on Dashboard downloads page or anything close to it.

  • Is there a way to hide users from the FileVault 2 ''main boot'' login screen?

    After your entire disk is encrypted with FileVault 2, there is a now a ''main'' boot login screen with users displayed--after a full shutdown/restart--as opposed to a ''normal'' login screen when logging users in and out after booting into FileVault 2.
    If that made any sense...there was a way to hide users from the ''normal'' login screen before by running this Terminal command:
    sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow \ HiddenUsersList -array-add xxxx
    (xxxx being a short user's name)
    How do I do this now for the login screen that comes up on a full/shutdown restart?

    Not really, but you can move them from the home screen to, say, the 4th, or 10th screens. But you do need to have at least one app in every screen on the phone. My idea was to have several blanks before the screen with her apps, but the phone doesn't allow this.
    Sounds like time for the Iron Fist. ::grin:: Putting your foot down. Funny how those two descriptions don't quite match up. Our 5 year old son loves to use the iPhone, and with consistent training we have minimal trouble when he doesn't want to quit.

  • Is there a way to export and print the browser data as a spread sheet?

    I'm in the process of logging approximately 1,500 shots for a documentary (the old fashioned way - long hand: shot #, TC in, descriptions... ) and I'm wondering if there's a way to export and print the data in the browser as a spread sheet.  It seems like a pretty simple thing, but I don't see it any where. Am I missing something?

    Yes, people I work with use it, assistants fill the fields out for me. As far as I know there is no "Print Browser" option. Some folks have assistants copy and paste the info into text, csv or xml files.    Since everthing has gone to meta tags, this approach is going the way of the electric spoon or feeding mayonnaise to Tuna.

  • I just installed iPhone 11 and when I try to play a slide show, it just blinks and and shows the whole group of pictures at once. I have done many slideshows with older versions of iPhoto. How can I fix this?

    I just installed iPhoto from the iLife 11 and when I try to play a slide show, it just blinks and shows a whole bunch of pictures at once. I have done many slide shows with no problem in an earlier version of iPhoto. What can I do to fix this?

    thats tough man, yeah exchanging it is the best option. But why do people always leave a message saying" i'll probably just by an ipod" and it's usually followed by, "even though i don't like apple or ipod" . I mean fine, if u feel like giving up on the zen micro thats fine, i personally don't care if you're going to buy an ipod. for god sakes ipod isn't even the next alternati've mp3 players, theres plenty. Are u just trying to get the creative people saying "oh man we lost another one to ipod" cuz i'm sure they don't lose sleep over u wanting to buy an ipod instead of a zen. *done ranting*

  • Had my ipad restored today and cant find a book i downloaded is there any way to locate and reload the book without purchasing it again

    I had my ipad restored today and cant locate a book I purchased in IBooks. is there a way to locate this book ithout purchasing it again

    As long as the book is still in the store, and you haven't changed countries since buying it, then it should show in the Purchased tab in the iBooks app on your iPad for redownloading. If it's still in the store but doesn't show in Purchased then check to see if it's hidden : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases.

  • Is there a way to collapse and expand a whole table within a sheet?

    I have sheets where I'd like to keep many tables all within the same page, and each table has quite a bit of data in it. Is there a way that I can collapse a table and then expand it to accomodate the need to stay within a page? Also, changing the content scale is not a solution I'd like to go with as it would require me to keep all tables visible-- I'd like a cleaner look to each sheet.

    Hi David,
    Welcome to Numbers discussions.
    In a table you cannot drag up or to the left past the final occupied cell. Of course you can make the table bigger.
    Yes that would be a nice feature for sure.
    The folks on these Discussion boards are as yourself end users not Apple employees. Please accept my following suggestion: at the top of your screen to the right of the blue Apple please click "Numbers" > "Provide Numbers Feedback". This makes your request known to the Pages team directly. I've sent many as well. I've sent many as well.
    Let's hope that the next version of Numbers (iWork) will incorporate many of the requested enhancements.
    Thank you in advance for doing that.
    Sincerely,
    RicD

  • Since i have downloaded the new IOS 8 my ipod touch 5G has been much slower, is there any way to downgrade and get the MUCH better IOS 7 back?

    I have recently downloaded the new IOS 8 and it has made my Ipod much slower.
    is there any way to get IOS 7 back or a way to speed up IOS 8?

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple:
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       

  • I recently brought an ipad 2, im wondering is there any way to hide files to prevent others from viewing them?

    I recently brought an ipad 2, i wondering is there anyway to mark files hidden to keep others from viewing them??

    well... there are some apps where you can store your passwords and stuff, but they will not prevent people from opening you photos/emails and get nosy while you are not watching.
    I know what you mean.

  • Is there a way to copy and paste the same changes in keyframes along the timeline?

    Hi,
    I was doing an effect (changing the parameters in keyframe editor) and I wanted to do the same effect in specific moments on the timeline. Is it possible to copy and paste the same effect on the keyframe editor?
    Thanks

    Following on from GFXZen, as well as repeating a series of keyframes as a regular pattern, if you need to move some of the repeats a little (to match moments in a soundtrack), use the Generate Keyframes command. That turns the extrapolated curves into editable and moveable keyframes.
    There's more on information on keyframe extrapolation and generating keyframes at the bottom of this page from the Motion help system.
    Check out the help information on the Transform Keyframes tool - you can use this to transform the keyframes of many parameters at the same time. Similar to using the option key when dragging keyframes in Adobe After Effects.

  • Is there a way to turn off showing the time in each Calendar entry in "week" view?

    I use the "week" view as my primary calendar. Upon updating to Mavericks, the calendar forces the starting time to be shown with each entry. This forces me to make my entries at least 1.5 hours long to show even two short lines of text. I frequently want to show two or three lines of text, for example when menu planning. Also, I consider this "feature" to be just chart junk--the starting time is already shown by the position on the calendar.

    I agree, clearing an entire line to show the event's starting time—when this should be apparent from the event block's position in the calendar—is a critical waste of space.
    Please also, of course, report to http://www.apple.com/feedback/.
