Skewing/Distorting objects and lines. HELP?!

Hello,
I am a University student doing a Graphic Design assignment on Data Visualisation. I have come up with my concept and everything but I need help in how to create it.
I need to know how to achieve this effect on lines/objects. If anyone can help me out it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Josie

Draw your lines straight and group them. Draw the shape you want to mold them into.

  • Distorted (flicker and lines) video on first gen MacBook Air

    I just had my harddisk replaced by the local Apple Store two weeks ago. Aside from the absurd experience of not being able to keep my harddrive, everything seemed fine. About four days after the replacement, the screen started acting funny. There are subtle horizontal lines that form on the screen that cause either flicker or blurring. They are not wide; they are not constant; and, they are not pleasant. Interestingly, I think the lines move with scrolls -- that is, they seem to be a screen buffer issue, not a screen issue.
    Does anyone know how to fix this? I don't have the time, the patience, or the money to take this poorly built machine to the Apple Store yet again.

    I have the same problem with my MacBook Air. When applying pressure (using the palm of my hand) on the back of the screen (where the illuminated apple is located) pushing the lower center of the case and the display would normalize. Therefore, I was able to localize my issue to a problem with the *LCD LED LVDS Cable* versus the display or the display's connector.
    I determined this after removing the bezel from around the screen (it is held together by two side tape - no screws) and manipulated the LCD LED LVDS Cable until the video image was restored.
    I do not know if this is your issue. However, based in the fact that your computer had the hard drive replaced; I would remove the bottom of the case in order to verify that the LCD LED LVDS Cable is securely plugged into the motherboard.
    One other possibility is that there is a problem with the video chip.

  • Matchcode objt and Search Help

    Hi Experts
    Can anybody please tell me the difference between Matchcode Object and Search Help??or they are same??
    coz when we use matchcode objt with parameter stmt we assing search help to that parameter.
    Right??
    Plz correct me if i am wrong
    Thanks in advance

    HI
    GOOD
    CHECK THIS
    Matchcodes were replaced with Search Helps starting with Release 4.0. Please use search helps to assign an input help to a field.
    Existing matchcodes were automatically converted to search helps. A matchcode object is hereby converted to a collective search help with the same name. Each matchcode ID of the matchcode object is converted into an elementary search help with the same name and assigned to the collective search help created from the matchcode object.
    A matchcode is a means of finding data records stored in the system. The matchcode is defined in the ABAP Dictionary in two steps:
    You first define the relevant tables and fields for the search in a matchcode object. A matchcode object describes the set of all possible search paths for a search string.
    You then create one or more matchcode IDs for a matchcode object. A matchcode ID describes a special search path for a search string. The matchcode ID defines the fields or field combinations to be used in the search.

    You will need to find a forum for MS Word since that is the software that you are trying to manipulate in this.  If you think the processing/creation of the PDF plays a role then you should ask in the forum for the software that you are using to create the PDF.
    This forum is for issue regarding downloading and installing Adobe trial products, so in any circumstance, your issue does not fit in this forum.

  • Anchored objects and first line in InDesign CS3

    Hi, thanks for reading. I know that when you want an achored object at the beginning of a text block to all push away ("wrap around") the text, including the first line, you have to put it into a line before that.
    What I don't like about it, is that I then have an empty first line and everything else is pushed one line down. Now I could move the whole textbox up, to fit to the rest of my layout, but that's not the way one should work in InDesign. Is there a way to get around the first line?

    T-
    Select the anchored object and put text wrap on it. Then select the anchored object and go to Object/Anchored Object/Options. Select Position: Inline and set the Y Offset to the negative number that aligns your text where you want it.

  • Help in Reports 6i - Header and Line

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a requirement that I need to pull the Header and Line information in the custom oracle apps report.
    If header record is not there for the filter criteria then I should display 0 in the header and print the corresponding lines for the header.
    If header record is present and there is no line record for it then I need to pull the header record alone and no lines for it.
    If both header record and line records are there then I need to pull the header record and corresponding lines for it.
    I am pulling the header record from the table prior to the parameter <period_from>
    I am pulling the lines record from the table based on the parameter between <period_from> and <period_to>
    Pls note that header record will have always only one record for the lines and the line record may not have or may have 1 or more line for each header.
    Kindly could you advise me as to how to make this happen.

  • Help - Concept: Object and reference?

    Q1:
    In Java tutorial, it says: The real-world objects share two characteristics: They all have state and behavior.
    State is associate with variables. So I am wondering where the object reference fit in the object if an object encapsulates some children objects? Is reference also varaibles?
    For example, if a MailInBox object has the size property, numberOfMessage property and a reference to each message object, does this mean that MailInBox object has property of size, numberOfMessage and all references?
    If reference belong to an object, an object can own both attribute properties and object references, right?
    =================
    Q2:
    What is the clientship of an object?, please help give me an example.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your reply.
    For first question, My original question was whether an object can have both attribute properties and object references.
    Here if a MainBox object has 1) a simple attribute "size" which is integer type, so "size" is the attribute of the MainBox; 2) At the same time, if a MainBox has a child object called "Inbox", so a MainBox object has a reference to the Inbox.
    So in this sense, I concluded that an object can have both attribute properties (here is "size") and object references (here is "size"). Is it right?
    This can also be inferred from your statements:
    It is correct to assume that an object has attributes, which
    simplistically reflect its state.Then,
    Therefore, the Mail Box object only has 2 references.But In Java tutorial, it says: The real-world objects share two characteristics: They all have state and behavior.
    Then I concluded that Both reference and attributes are variables, right?
    =====
    So is it safe to say, "an object can have attribute and reference"?
    or
    is it safe to say, "an object can have attribute with reference"?
    Thanks!

    Hi Peter,
    Specify your business object and the method of the BOR object in the BASIC data tab in PFTC transaction.

  • Class/member variables usage in servlets and/or helper classes

    I just started on a new dev team and I saw in some of their code where the HttpSession is stored as a class/member variable of a servlet helper class, and I was not sure if this was ok to do or not? Will there be problems when multiple users are accessing the same code?
    To give some more detail, we are using WebLogic and using their Controller (.jpf) files as our servlet/action. Several helper files were created for the Controller file. In the Controller, the helper file (MyHelper.java) is instantiated, and then has a method invoked on it. One of the parameters to the method of the helper class is the HttpServletRequest object. In the method of the helper file, the very first line gets the session from the request object and assigns it to a class variable. Is this ok? If so, would it be better to pass in the instance of the HttpServletRequest object as a parameter to the constructor, which would set the class variable, or does it even matter? The class variable holding the session is used in several other methods, which are all invoked from the method that was invoked from the Controller.
    In the Controller file:
    MyHelper help = new MyHelper();
    help.doIt(request);MyHelper.java
    public class MyHelper {
        private HttpSession session;
        public void doIt(HttpServletRequest request) {
            session = request.getSession();
            String temp = test();
        private String test() {
            String s = session.getAttribute("test");
            return s; 
    }In the past when I have coded servlets, I just passed the request and/or session around to the other methods or classes that may have needed it. However, maybe I did not need to do that. I want to know if what is being done above will have any issues with the data getting "crossed" between users or anything of that sort.
    If anyone has any thoughts/comments/ideas about this I would greatly appreciate it.

    No thoughts from anyone?

  • Basic questions about Objects and variables...

    If I have the following:
    Species theAnimal = new Species();
    Am I right in saying that the object here is 'theAnimal'?.
    If we just wrote it as:
    Species theAnimal
    Then i'm assuming that here 'theAnimal' is the variable name...right?
    I'm just trying to get facts straight when reading.
    Thanks for the help...
    Yash

    At first, theAnimal is pointing to one object, and
    theMammoth is pointing to another?
    In the final line, they're both pointing to the same
    object. Isn't that kind of saying, they're pointing
    to the same memory address/location?Yes.
    They might actually hold the physical memory address of the object, or they might hold some other abstraction that the VM uses to locate the object. In either case, though, they both hold the same value, and you can picture that value as the address of the object.
