Show skipped slides in Light Table?

Does anyone know how to display skipped slides in Light Table (or any other) view)?
I bought this new Mac mainly so I can use Keynote in my corporate training presentations.
But it takes too long to tailor each presentation, since I need to see at a glance all the slides that are skipped, instead of opening each skipped slide one at a time.
Thanks,
Paul

Yes, you can enlarge all of the slides by clicking on the icon in the lower left.
Then choose medium or large.

Thumbnails in Navigator and slides in Light Table sizing?

can the thumbnails in the Navigator view be made larger and the same thing in the light table view... can these be made larger too?
Thank you

Unfortunately, as far as I've been able to tell, and from what I've read online, you cannot resize the thumbnails in the Navigator window or the Light Table. Hopefully at least the Light Table view will gain this functionality in the future.
Sorry!

Gray Box Light Table View

OK, after search for some time, I have no idea why I have a gray box on the upper right corner of some of my slides in light table view (see attached photo). Anybody have an idea why this is there? Both of these slides use the same master template (title only).
Thanks

OK, I figured out that the gray box in the upper right corner lets me know that there are Presenter Notes attached to that slide. The boxes also show up in Navigation View IF you select to show presenter notes.

Keynote - Light table

Hi all,
When working in the light table is there any way to "zoom" in or to increase the size of the slides that are being shown. On my external screen i have a hard time reading the text on them.
In powerpoint you can set a zoom/magnification size up to 100% (although i would have loved to be able to go higher to something like 200 or 300) Is there anything similar in keynote ?

Well, there is the "Skip slide" option in the context menu, it is the same as 'hide slide'
Gancho
Then Apple should probably look at that feature (as
well as a "hide slide" option) for the next version

How do you display skipped slides in slide switcher?

Does anyone know how to display skipped slides in Keynote's slide switcher? I'd like to have the option of displaying skipped slides during presentations. This would be much easier than exiting out of presentation mode, right clicking the slide desired slide, selecting "don't skip slide", and re-entering presentation mode.
It is possible to place all skipped slides at the end of the presentation and then use slide switcher to navigate to those slides as they are needed, but that dimishes the potential of skipped slides. There is also the option of placing hyperlinks to skipped slides, but convilutes the slides and the slide making process to quickly if there are many hidden slides.

It's easy to become flustered while speaking if one cannot find their desired illustration quickly
Absolutly agree, often had the "where am I"? feeling.
Of course, adding multiple bottons adds clutter and would also encourage audience members to ask questions about the visible buttons.
The technique I use here is to blank the screen using the projectors remote control; this way there is nothing showing on the scren and I can go look for the required slide in the menu without the audience seeing it.
If its only 10 slides a small button at the bottom of the screen is unseen by the audience.
I also often use a paper crib sheet included with my presentation notes which list slide number and content for this purpose. If I need the slide with the pie chart, the sheet tells me its slide 84 so press; 8 & 4 & enter on the keyboard enter and slide switcher instantly jumps to that slide.

Question on Light Table behavior

I am wondering if it just me and a couple of others who are seeing pixelated images in a Light Table in 3.1.1?
Situation:
With Aperture 3.1.1 set to all defaults in Preferences, I create a new light table (either empty or with pre-selected images) and then drag images to the light table.
The images are small on the table. They appear to be lower quality than the images in the filmstrip to begin with. Resizing the images exagerates the problem and reveals unclear and/or pixelation.
I have done a clean install of Aperture 3 and updated to 3.0.3 and the issue does not exist. Light Table images are fine whether resized or not.
*What I have tried so far:*
1 - Clean install of OS X 10.6 and updated with 10.6.6 combo installer (repaired disk permissions once installed), then install Aperture 3 and updated to 3.1.1 (repaired disk permissions once completed). Import new images from Nikon D80 (both RAW and JPEG) and tested light table. Same issue. Then imported new .cr2 files from a friend's Canon, which all had the same issue.
2 - Copy APTS lesson files and library to drive > open with Aperture 3.1.1 (upgrade library when prompted). The existing images in that library behave correctly in Light Table, but newly imported images into that library display the image degradation / pixelation in light table.
3 - In all cases, I have tried to delete / generate Previews as well as Thumbnails. None of these have sorted the issue.
Note - it almost appears to me that the images used on the light table are actually small thumbnails that are low quality on the light table and any subsequent resizing pixelates the image.
Note #2 - the strange thing in all cases is that using the loupe tool and panning over the images in the light table shows high-quality image.
I am trying to determine if it is my machine (or procedure) specifically, or if there are others experiencing this in large numbers.
I have 8 GB RAM and the nVidia 8800 GT upgrade card in my machine. Whether just Aperture 3.1.1 is installed or with all my normal software, no difference in Light Table behavior.
Looking for comments as to whether users have no issues like this or any who do.
I have already sent a report to Apple.
Thanks in advance for any comments.

SP,
I do not think this is intended behavior, as it works as expected in AP 3.0.3.
I sent a bug report via the feedback function in the Aperture menu and will follow up with a second one. I was hoping that other users would chime in as to whether they were experiencing the issue, or if it is working correctly on their system. Unfortunately, there has been no response other than yours as you can see.
There are two other threads since the release of 3.1.1 where 3 or 4 other users are having the same issue (at least as far as the pixelation / low resolution image issue).
On my system, the default size of the light table changed between 3.0.3 and 3.1.
In 3.0.3 the light table starts off smaller (with larger grid squares as if zoomed in) and dragging the images onto the table show the same quality image on the table as in the filmstrip. In 3.1 (and 3.1.1) the light table starts off much larger (with smaller grid squares as if zoomed out) and dragging an image from the filmstrip results in a smaller sized thumbnail showing on the light table at the lower quality.
I have also been going back through the 'Apple Pro Training Series - Aperture 3' book using the included library and lesson files (to test for functionlity with AP 3.1.1 and iPhoto '11) and I find that in lesson 3 where the light table is used, the same issue appears once you resize one of the images next to smaller images (which results in the three smaller images being lower quality than the resized image).
My guess is that the thumbnail / preview function connected with the light table sizing is creating an issue where the light table is using a smaller thumbnail when it should be switching to (or using from the beginning) a preview for quality. The fact that the image viewed under the loupe tool is high quality lends to this theory - IMHO.
I am hoping that this is fixed in 3.1.2 (if they release an update), since I would like to use the light table for layout decisions and for comparing multiple images. The bad image quality sort of shoots this function in the foot for me.
The only real fix is to revert to AP 3.0.3 and forego the 3.1.1 improvements which really isn't a fix.
To any others reading this post, could you please indicate whether the light table image quality is fine for you or whether you are experiencing the bad quality / pixelation issue I am? It would help me in discovering whether this is machine (hardware) specific or a wider issue.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Rating filter moves images on light table into a single pile

Anyone seen this?
I have a bunch of images arranged on the light table with various star ratings. The images are arranged by number of stars into various grouping - all the 5's together etc.
When I use the filter in the browser to see only the 5's for example, the light table will show only the 5's as epxected.
When I then select unrated or better, all the rest of the images end up in a single pile on the light table.
If I filter on 3 or better, and then switch back, just the 2s and 1s end up in the pile, ie whatever is not displayed by the filter gets piled up.
Is this a bug or "feature"? If it's a feature it's very annoying, unless there is some way to "lock" the position of an image on the LT.

OK, so figured out a convoluted bodge-around:
1. Make an album of all your selects. Select all and make a new Light Table(LT) from all.
2. With LT selected, click the lock icon.
3. With LT still selected, hold down apple key, and select your album of selects (step 1). This opens this album in a separate tab, but because lock icon on LT is selected, the LT viewer area is still visible.
4. in you album of selects, type your chosen keyword search. From the resulting set, select and drag the image(s) to the LT viewer. Do this with as many keyword searches as required. When done you can optionally close the selects album tabbed browser.
5. Use LT as you normally would. You can now toggle on/off images by keyword by typing it in search field.
Any other methods I've tried crashes Aperture.
Comments anyone?

Light table in Keynote 3

In the light table view in Keynote 3 you can rearrange the order of slides. But is there any way I can reorder the slides vertically, instead of horizontally? I would like to arrange them from top to bottom in light table view.
Thanks,
norris

Norris,
no, there's no way to to reorder the slides vertically.
You could send feedback to Apple and request an option to arrange the slides from top to bottom.

Light Table

Switching from Navigator view to Light Table View almost brings Keynote to a standstill on my MacBook Pro - everything else runs OK. The Light Table seems to be taken a long time to "form" properly with most of the slides being blurred. Even the surrounding window is struggling to appear properly.
Is anyone else experiencing this?

I was curious. When I look in the project folder, it seems as though there are fewer photos than I recall. That is why I was attempting to move the ones from the light table back.
Do project foldders have filters that would prohibit seeing all of the photo contents?
Worse case, can I use my vault back up to restore?
Is there any way to see the contents contained in teh vault prior to retore?
Thanks,
Ed

Presenter View: can't use Light Table?

Let's say I have 40 slides. I'm on slide 33, and someone raises a question for which I need to return to slide 4. So far, all I know to do is click backwards through all 29 slides, including builds. VERY clumsy, unprofessional and time-wasting. (I use my white iMac remote, paired to my MacBook Pro, late 2008).
I tried starting from Light Table, but then when I click Play, it gives me only the two-slide standard Presenter view.
Suggestions?
Thanks,
Chuck B

There is no light table view that works during a presentation. However, the Keyboard Shortcuts help page (accessed from the Help menu) explains how to invoke the Slide Switcher, which may have the functionality you need.

Light Table: missing images on certain page sizes

I have a light table with about 20 images from a D200 on it.
I go to print it, and all the images show up if I select Letter size paper. If I change the paper size to 13x19, one of the images doesn't show up in the preview of the light table. I thought, "ah, it's just a display/preview anomaly" so I went ahead and printed it. Guess what? That one photo really did drop out.
Even odder, if I save to PDF, 6 images drop out!
Anyone else see this? I'm on Aperture 1.0.1.

Good news. *crosses fingers*
So far I have not been able to reproduce this in Aperture 1.1.

Icons in light table view?

In light table view, some of my slides have blue triangles at the bottom right, others do not. Some have three horizontal lines in the top right, some do not.
What do these icons stand for? Do they have an interactive function? Nothing seems to happen when I click/right click.
Thanks.

The blue triangles in the bottom RH corner (also visible in Navigator view) indicate that you have a transition for that slide which affects the next one. The three horizontal lines in the top RH corner indicate that you have Presenter notes for this slide. And the three dots in the bottom LH corner indicate that you have builds on this slide.

Decrease Light Table Size?

Is there a way to decrease the size of a light table? I've searched around the documentation I have and don't see any way to do that.
I was trying to slightly increase the size of a light table I was working in when Aperture suddenly slowed down (I suppose it was doing something in the background). I held the image I was dragging to one side of the table and then suddenly Aperture became responsive again and the size of my table just shot up in the direction I was dragging that image. It's about twice the size I want it to be now and I have work on it I don't want to loose by simply deleting it and creating a new one.

Just at the top of the light table window is a little slider.

Light Table - blurred images (bug)

As per this previous thread (https://discussions.apple.com/message/12871298#12871298), which has now been archived, I've found that zooming all images on a Light Table (using the slider) results in larger, but completely blurred images.
The images themselves are fine in preview, and if you choose a single image on the Light Table and drag its corner to make it larger, then it scales up just fine - greater resolution as it grows.
I have submitted a bug report through the Aperture menu, and I would encourage everyone others to do the same if they're experiencing this.

I have already reported the bug (as per your linked thread).
Of note is that I was at the local University Village Apple store here in Seattle last weekend and confirmed this bug on the best 27" iMac (current model) they had in the store using the sample library in AP3.
That machine had the ATI graphics chip and my machine has the nVidia 8800 GT, so I at least verified it is not specific to my hardware.
Dragging images onto the light table displayed the same 'low quality' thumbnail issue I have seen since updating from AP 3.0.2 to 3.1.x.
Scaling the images up seemed to improve the image quality, but this then utilizes too much viewable area of the light table to use for real layout option work (even on the 27" screen at Apple store).
Here is the thread I posted as well in case anyone has interest in the troubleshooting I have already tried:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/13298420#13298420
Thanks for bringing this up again.
Still waiting for someone to actually post that it works correctly for them at all thumbnail sizes in the Light Table function using AP 3.1.x.
I will also send another bug report and include my test at Apple store in the report.

Keynote light table icons

Does anyone know the meaning of a white square in the upper right corner of slides in the light table view in Keynote? I know the meaning of the icons in the lower right and left, but the square in the upper right is a new one to me.
Thanks

Thanks so much - not a big deal, but fun to know.
