Rotating cube

After installing Yosemite, my rotating cube effect when fast user switching isn't working properly. I get the cube effect when I switch from user A to B (cube turns from right to left), but when I switch from user B back to A, I don't get a cube effect anymore (it used to turn left to right). Now I get a fade out/in effect.
Anyone know what's going on?

Thanks for the replies.
Rob N, Fast User Switching is selected so that does not appear to be the problem.
Niel, I tried what you suggested and got this response:
There is no (GLCompositor) default for the (com.apple.windowserver) domain.
Defaults have not been changed.
The interesting thing is that I have seen the cube on my machine - recently when I was running on Airport in the kitchen. Normally the TiBook is plugged into an Ethernet DSL connection and that is where it is now (with no cube). It is a bit late tonight to check out whether this is a contributing factor but I will look into it. Strange!

When trying to log back from sleep mode, the screen behaves as a rotating cube, with the mouse pointer in the top left corner. Hangs.

When the computer in woken from sleep mode we see two login options (bineg used by two users).
But when we try to login, the screen just behaves as a sluggish rotating cube.
Nothing works, we just have to hard boot at this time.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

What has happened to the Rotating Cube when switching accounts in Leopard?

Has the rotating cube been abandoned in Leopard? If not how do I turn it back on? Thanks in advance.

Fast user switching is on... I use the Name reference but I've tried switching to icon with the same result. If the a account I'm switching to is not logged in I get a blank Blue screen for about 2 seconds then the desktop of the account. If the account is already logged in then from the login window (all accounts have passwords) it just switches directly to the desktop.
I have spaces turned on on my main account however none of the other accounts do, the same thing happens regardless of which account you are switching from or to.
If you hadn't said it was working for you I would have believe they just pulled it from Leopard.

Multiple EventListeners, modulus and rotating cubes... performance issues.

Hi.
I've created a grid of 3D cubes using modulus, and the 3d cubes are were created from the Math and Flash Tutorial, if you are interested it is here http://www.flashandmath.com/advanced/menu3d/.
What I am trying to accomplish (and it works, just the performance is lousy). All the cubes in the grid are inactive until the mouse hovers over them, then they start to rotate, and once the mouse moves off them they continue to rotate.
Time for the script:
To create I create the grid like this:
public function FlowerMenu(){
var rowY:Number = 0;
for (var i:int = 0; i < 190; i++) {
     var myCube = new               CubeMenu(["anemon.jpg","parodia.jpg","anagallis.jpg","lila.jpg","cosmos.jpg","adonis.jpg" ],100);
     myCube.x = 0 + ((i % 10) * 200);
     if (i % 10 == 0) {
         rowY += 200;
myCube.y = rowY;
addChild(myCube);
That works fine, although if anybody has any improvements I would appreciate them.
And now for the mouse events & event listeners:
private var i:int = 0;
private function setUpListeners():void
    spBoard.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, boardOver);
    spBoard.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, boardOut);
private function boardOver(e:MouseEvent):void
    addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, rotateSquare);
private function boardOut(e:MouseEvent):void
    addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, rotateSquare);
private function rotateSquare(e:Event)
    renderView(curTheta+i, curPhi+i);
    i++;
So, this works, but after about 4 or 5 cubes have started rotating the
performance drops considerably. I can imagine creating that many
EventListeners isn't a good idea, but I can't see any other way of
doing it.
Does anybody have any suggestions or code improvements, I'm very new to AS3
and Flash so any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Actually I'm not using paper vision, I'm using the source from flash and math's using transformation matrixes and bitmaps here http://www.flashandmath.com/advanced/menu3d/index.html
No, the boardOut function, is for when the mouse rolls off the cube, it starts it spinning indefinitely.
private function boardOut(e:MouseEvent):void
    addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, rotateSquare);
If it helps I could post the project in a zip, so you can get an idea of what it is, i'm doing and can see where the performance hit is. Is there any recognised method of doing this on boards?

Can't translate a selfmade Cube with MouseTranslate!

hello,
1st i'm very new to java3d, so please forgive me my unexpierience.
Why is it impossible to translate (via MouseTranslate) the cube in the middle of the view? MouseRotation seems to be work fine.
(i hope the pasted code is not to much, feel free to try)
tnx in advance

Adding a 3D sphere onto a 3D cube

Hi, currently i have created a 3D cube and was thinking to create a 3D sphere so that the sphere can stay onto the cube. And so when the cube is being rotated, the sphere that is on the cube will move according too. Can any1 show me the code to create the sphere and add it to the existing Universe. I will paste my code of creating the 3D cube below. Hope you all can use my existing code and add the code for the sphere and show me. Thank you Very Much for your help.

What I figured out was that the model MUST be saved in one of the file formats acrobat recognizes - it won't come in straight from AutoCAD's native .dwg format. So I save it as a .SAT file and then it works as advertised.
Thanks for your response.

Place image icon onto a 3D cube

Hi, I am currently doing a project on 3D java. I have created 3D color cube and
i am planning to put movable image icon on the cube so that i can move the image
icon to anywhere on the cube. The color cube can be rotated, translated and
zoomable. Lastly, when the cube is being rotated,the image icon on the cube must
move together also.
i am currently stuck at the part where i dont know how to do the coding on
creating the image icon and when the cube is rotated, the image icon will move
also. Can you give me some sample code on doing that as this is my first time
using java 3D.
Below is the code that i use to create the cube.

Thank You all for your help.I apprepciate it.

Use a Box instead of the ColorCube.. This might give you a start.
To texture the Box, assuming you have extended Applet -
        java.net.URL texImage = null;// the URL of the image to load
     Appearance app = new Appearance();
     Texture tex = new TextureLoader(texImage, this).getTexture();
     app.setTexture(tex);
     TextureAttributes texAttr = new TextureAttributes();
     texAttr.setTextureMode(TextureAttributes.MODULATE);
     app.setTextureAttributes(texAttr);
     Box textureCube = new Box(0.4f, 0.4f, 0.4f,
                      Box.GENERATE_TEXTURE_COORDS, app);IMHO you will be well served by texturing a plane congruent in size with the sides of the cube and manipulating that using the coords of each side of a Box derived from Shape3D.getGeometry. Don`t forget to add a Light or two.

Color cube changes color

The color cube in the code below keeps changing the color of all the sides, but the top and buttom one.
The colors should remain the same.
Can someone explain, why the colors do change itself?

Thanks for your reply. I need some clarification. I am in my workbook. In the BEX format toolbar I have changed the workbook to no color. Now all cells have no color. What are the steps now to change the results rows to be yellow again? Where do I change "The Workbook results row is the Style type SAPBEXaggItem...you can change the background for thisOr steps to"
Full points will be rewarded.

Affter Effects "Cube" all four videos play very slow

Hi everyone,
As I have produced a rotating "Cube" . Four videos to play as the Cube rotates slowly from left to right.
The negative is that all four videos in the rendered finished product play very slow.
my wish is to have all four videos to play at a normal speed.
any input would be appreciated.
yes I am new to After Effects and this is my best piece of work so far but the element of no realtime of the videos is
troubling. Premiere Pro is coming nicely.
Many thanks! Merry Christmas!

Seriously Apple, why can't Leopard render a transparent menu bar on my Mac?

I have a 2-year-old PowerBook 12" 1.5 GHz running Leopard 10.5.2 freshly updated today. I thought for sure I'd get to see a translucent menu bar but, no, still opaque as ever with no option to change.
Apple, let me tell you some of the things this pretty capable computer can do:
-Dynamically render transparency and reflections in a magnifying Dock
-Dynamically render transparency in Terminal windows with varying levels of transparency
-Render GPU-intensive animations such as Genie effect, rotating cube, and dashboard "splash"
-Hey, I can even boot into Linux, run Gnome, and make it's menu bar transparent!
Please stop telling me my computer is not compatible enough to display a translucent menu bar. Displaying the transparency in the menu bar has got to be one of the least intensive operations Leopard will do. It is a static image (save for seldom changing menu items) that rarely needs to be re-rendered. Terminal windows, however, get resized, dragged around and display their transparency beautifully.
Let's get some straight answers as to why this simple issue of getting a Transparent menu bar consistently displayed (ot not displayed, by choice) across all of your "compatible" hardware is such a confusing mystery.
Thanks for fixing the Stacks, at least.

Thanks for your input. While you may not mind a solid menu bar, I quite like it and would like to have one. My main gripe however, is the fact that this really just seems like some bug that Apple isn't willing to focus on, or admit to.
They say the graphics card can render "most effects" but not the menu bar. But, seriously, as I've mentioned before, why can it render transparent drop-down menus, transparent Terminal windows, transparent/reflective Dock, Dashboard ripple effect but not a simple, basic, transparent menu?
Once I get a decent answer to this, I'll be satisfied. Because right now, telling me my 64MB graphics card can't handle it seems like a load of bulls**t.

Fast user switching animation not working on new iMac with 10.9.1

I have a late 2013 iMac with the GeForce GTX 780M, pre-installed with 10.9 and then immediately updated to 10.9.1 out of the box.
I imported my adminstrator account from an older iMac with Mountain Lion, using Migration Assistant. No problems experienced there whatsoever. I then separately imported a second user account from the same Mountain Lion install. Both accounts are functioning normally.
However, when I switch between these accounts, the fast user switching animation (rotating cube) does not occur - it just instantly switches screens, without even a fade in/out effect.
I made sure the display settings on each account are identical down to the last detail, even the same color sync profiles. I also created a fresh 'test' user account with default Mavericks settings, yet switching to that from either of the imported accounts does not have the animation either.
Any suggestions on how to trouble-shoot this? I have 'Googled' it, but all the refrences are from earlier version of OS X from 2003-2009 and mention things like not having enough graphical processing power - obviously not an issue here.

I tried (on both user accounts):
1. Flushing all the caches using Onyx
2. Deleting the 'com.apple.desktop.plist' files.
3. Switching each user account to non-standard resolutions and back again.
The lack of the rotating cube effect is not the worst of it, as about 50% of the time I switch accounts I get an 'empty' desktop in the account I have just switched to, and I can only get the desktop icons to appear again by switching back and forth a few times. Extremely frustrating.
I am starting to think this is yet another bug in Mavericks or a problem with the graphic drivers for the new GTX 775 / 780 cards.

Xorg + xf86-video-intel lags with compiz / high cpu usage without it

I have recently noticed that my X server lags. It happens approximately once per second (it's fairly regular) and it can be easily observed when watching movies, dragging windows or rotating cube. Screen just hangs for some milliseconds. Lags are bigger and happens more often when many windows are opened.
Even worse things happen when I'm _not_ running compiz. X's cpu usage spikes permanently up to 30-40% and lags are even more noticable.
My hardware:
Laptop with Intel GMA 950
Configuration
I tried some different xorg.confs but it seems to be irrevelant. It happens even on plain conf created by 'Xorg -configure'
xorg-server 1.5.3-3
mesa 7.2-1
xf86-video-intel 2.4.3-1
kernel26 2.6.27.8-1
I also tried downgrading these packages to
xorg-server 1.4.2-2
mesa 7.0.3-3
xf86-video-intel 2.3.2-1
kernel26 2.6.27-1
and it seems to resolve cpu usage problem but not the lags.
Does anybody know what might cause these lags? It's really annoying.

It turned out that color depth was the issue. I think that 24bit is too big for my graphics card and compiz (although I remember that i810+24bit+compiz worked fine).
So changing DefaultDepth in xorg.conf to 16 fixed the problem. Is there any other way to workaround this without decreasing color depth?

I'm starting over again but now cannot get the PKGBUILD to complete. I had this problem this morning as well, but after editing the PKGBUILD file did eventually get it to complete. This is the output of makepkg -c using the PKGBUILD as posted:

SHUTTING DOWN IMAC WITH 10.9 & MBA issues

Anyone esle having these problems: NOTE ON ALL PRODUCTS
I AM HAVING ISSUES WITH MID 2011 iMac 21, 16g ram, shutting down with OS 10.9. Pinwheel truning but not shutting down.
I am also seeing the "spinning ball" when moving through different applications or pages within applciations that I had not seen on the previous OS.
Furthermore in regards to my portables; I have two 11" MBA, (mid 2011 4g ram & mid 2012 8g ram and unfortunatly this is not consistant) there seems to be a ghost image (or faint reverse image would better discribe it) of the desktop wallpaper (the universe which I prefer over the wave) on shutting down both of the portables. This did not happen under 10.8.5.
I spoke to Support yesterday who walked me through disk repair and repair permissions and restart in safe mode, however, this morning the iMAC (which was in sleep mode last night) would not start up to the log in from sleep or recognize my trackpad, this is the second morning this has been a problem. Shutting down still seems to be an issue with the imac.
These are defeinelty software issues that need to be addressed in the OS ASAP.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.

I tried (on both user accounts):
1. Flushing all the caches using Onyx
2. Deleting the 'com.apple.desktop.plist' files.
3. Switching each user account to non-standard resolutions and back again.
The lack of the rotating cube effect is not the worst of it, as about 50% of the time I switch accounts I get an 'empty' desktop in the account I have just switched to, and I can only get the desktop icons to appear again by switching back and forth a few times. Extremely frustrating.
I am starting to think this is yet another bug in Mavericks or a problem with the graphic drivers for the new GTX 775 / 780 cards.

3D programming

I�m taking a course in Linear Algebra and I heard that with linear algebra it�s possible to make some rotating cubes or similiar stuff. But what do I need to get going? Like some 3D engine in Java or something? Does this exist?
