Using Sparkle build in on object with 0% transparency

I am trying to use the 'Sparkle' build in on an image (and I have also tried with text) with 0% transparency, so that only the effect is visible.  I have done this in the past in a previous Keynote version.  The issue I am having is that the image shows up not transparent once the build is finished. Any thoughts on what I can do to resolve this? My work around so far is to add 'Disappear' build out after the build in is complete.
Thanks!

Use a coloured background
place a shape on the slide and remove any shadow and use any fill colour
Reduce the opacity to a value of 0

  • Using org.rosuda.JRI.REXP objects with R values

    Hi,
    As JRI and rJava use JNI, I thought I'd try postin this here...
    I'm a bit confused about how REXP and Rengine in org.rosuda.JRI works.
    If I use the example code....
    public REXP getDistance (Rengine re)
             //...open a file and assign some data to 'data'.....then...      
            REXP rexp = re.eval ("dist_out <- data.matrix(data, rownames.force = NA)");
            return rexp;
        }... then the following code knows what 'dist_out' is, that it's of class 'matrix' and works fine...
    public Rengine getNJTree (REXP rexp, Rengine re)
            re.eval ("library (ape)");
            re.eval ("tree_mr <- nj(dist_out)");
            re.eval ("plot(tree_mr)");
            System.out.println ("Exiting getNJTree");
            return re;
        }But, if I use....
    public Rengine getNJTree (REXP rexp, Rengine re)
            re.eval ("library (ape)");
            re.eval ("tree_mr <- nj("+rexp+")");
            re.eval ("plot(tree_mr)");
           return re;
        }...then I get an error - "object tree_mr not found"
    and this is because rexp is not being recognised as the 'dist_out' which was assigned to it earlier.
    If I run the code rexp.getContent(), I get the content as "[D@129b0e1", which I guess is some reference?
    Even if I try....
    {code} public Rengine getNJTree (REXP rexp, Rengine re)
    double[][] matrix = rexp.asDoubleMatrix ();
    re.eval ("library (ape)");
    re.eval ("tree_mr <- nj("+matrix+")");
    re.eval ("plot(tree_mr)");
    return re;
    }{code}
    ....I still get "object tree_mr not found"
    So, I'm obviously doing something wrong here, but I can't figure out for the life of me what it is.
    Any help or explaination would be very welcome.
    Many thanks!

    As JRI and rJava use JNI, I thought I'd try postin this here...I cannot image why. The issue has nothing whatsoever to do with JNI.

  • Can I use RMI to find an object with contructor with params?

    Does an RMI available object HAVE to be a parameter-less constructor?
    All the examples I see are:
    MyClass mc = (MyClass) Naming.lookup("/HelloServer");
    Is there any way to pass arguments to its constructor?

    RMI client invokes a remote method on the server object through proxy stub of the server object obtained via Naming service. Stub implements all remote interfaces exported by the RMI server object which basically marshals all the parameters of the remote method, sends the method request to server object skeleton residing in a different address space via TCP connection and finally receives the result from the server object if any, unmarshals and returns result to the caller.
    Server side RMI appilcation instantiates the RMI server class which implements all intended remote interfaces, exports it to the RMI runtime and finally registers itself with Naming service. RMI client only obtains a reference to the RMI server object through lookup method of the Naming service. Remember client does not instantiate a server object, client only knows about the remote interface implemented by the server object and does not have any idea about its implementation object details. On the server sice the Class which implements remote interfaces, can pass any number of arguments to its constructor.
    In your example, MyClass is the stub to the remote server object which implements "MyClass" remote interface. The stub only provides boiler-plate code for remote methods which marshalls params, sends request to RMI server object, receives the result object, unmarshals it and finally returns it to the caller. The stub only contains the necessary information details like remote object ID, host and port to contact the RMI server object which implements the remote interface.
    So client does not instantiate a server implementation objet, it only obtains a reference (stub) to the server object thru Naming service. Remote interface implementation object can declare a constructor which takes any number of arguments. RMI server side application only instantiates this implementation object and registers its stub with the Naming service.

  • How to make an object with a transparent background

    i know this should be simple, but my use of photoshop has really fallen off and i can't recall how to do this.
    i have masked an object from a jpg file and pasted it into a new document created with background contents transparent and i do have the checkered background. yet, when i save this document, the background appears to be filled in with white. is it really white or is it really transparent. i even created a second layer to paste the object into and saved as a pdf, but the same thing happens.
    if i flatten the image, the background also becomes white.
    basic stuff, i know, but i don't remember and the help isn't helping me.

    Tiff supports transparency and is a widely-accepted format. You may want to try giving the printer that format.
    Gif and png can only be saved if you're using RGB images. If they are not RGB, then save as TIFF and you should be fine.
    If you actually are missing a bunch of plug-ins and/or file format options, it's possible that they have somehow been deleted. You'd have to reinstall Photoshop to get them back, or copy the contents of the plug-ins folder from another computer. SFW is a plug-in that resides within an import/export folder in the plug-ins folder, so it does sound like you are missing some things that need to be re-installed.

  • Problem using linear workflow to composite images with nonlinear transparency

    First off: I love what a fully linear workflow does for the proper behavior of gradients, transparency and the like.
    HOWEVER in both Premiere and AE I have found no simple way (within the linear workflow) to properly/accurately composite images that were not linear to start with/have nonlinear alpha channels. For example, I have an 8 bit RGB photoshop file with 2 layers: one with transparency and the other a white background. If I export the transparent layer as a png (or for that matter save it as a standalone psd), bring it into PP or AE and put a white solid behind it, it doesn't look the same as in the original photoshop file unless I turn off "composite in linear color".
    My best workaround so far is to bring the transparent image into AE (working in a linear color space) and manually adjust the gamma of its alpha channel using a combination of of track mattes/levels/shift channels effects to counteract the improper interpretation of the gamma of the alpha channel, since there's no effect or setting to change the linear/nonlinear interpretation of the gamma of the alpha channel.
    Is anyone at Adobe working on addressing this issue? Why isn't there an effect (or setting in "interpret footage") to allow us to specify if the source material has linear or nonlinear gamma? EDIT: I have just realized that there is a color management option in the AE footage interpret dialog (but not PP), but when I attempt to use it with a png it is greyed out/disabled.
    Thanks,
    Henry

    Well, you could just not use PNG but instead TIFF? The behaviors are built into the file format and using a limited 8bit format in a linear workflow doesn't make that much sense in the first place...

  • Vehicle tracking using vision builder

    Can anyone help me to track a vehicle using vision builder?

    The Object tracking feature allows to track multiple objects.
    To do exactly what is shown in the video, where the number of cars is variable, you need to use LabVIEW and Vision Development module to have more control over the creation of the objects. (The limitation with Vision Builder AI is that each object to track is associated with a tracking session, so you have to know up front how many object you need to track, but VBAI can track multiple objects).
    The principle that I described should be the same in LabVIEW: somehow detect the new car that comes into the field of view, and at that point learn the object so that it can be tracked. The prerequesite should be that you must know where to detect the car that comes into the field of view. The difficult part of the application is to define the region of interest of the new object you want to track.
    The LabVIEW example for object tracking is located here:

  • Error: The Task has failed to load on Execute Package Task using TFS Build and MSBuild.exe on dedicated Build Machine.

    I'm trying to automate my building and deployment of SSIS packages using TFS build definitionss in conjunction with MSBuild.exe on a separate build machine.
    I have successfully built and deployed my projects but receive the following error:
    Error: Failed to load task "etl_UWP_Stage_tstg_7_Large",type "".  The contact information for this task is "Microsoft Corporation: Microsoft SQL Server .... "
    This error happens at runtime as well as if I perform a "Validate..." on the SSIS Catalog on the server.
    This only occurs when trying to execute a package that contains an Execute Package Task.  Any other packages that are doing the actual work are working just fine.
    In addition, when I do the MSBuild from my developer machine with the same deployment process everything works fine, even the Execute Package Task.
    I can even open up the project on the build machine in VS2012, rebuild all, then deploy and everything works fine.
    Some things I've considered/verified:
    1) Visual Studio 2012 and Visual Studio Data Tools 2012 are both on the build machine and my local machine.
    2) The .NET version being used by VS2012 is the same on the build machine and my local machine.
    3) I find it suspicious that the "Type" referenced in the error above is blank...but not sure where to go with that.
    4) Obvious difference is that during the TFS Build and Deploy on the build machine, everything is running under the TFS Service account, rather than my account...once again...not sure where to go with this, but it is a significant difference.
    Has anyone had similar issues or have any thoughts on things to try?
    Thanks,
    Jason

    Not sure why I couldn't find this answer in my earlier searches...
    But this thread solved it for me:
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/3aa1e324-da32-4ea0-865c-c69f610ef262/failed-to-load-execute-package-task-error?forum=sqlintegrationservices
    Essentially I had to install SSIS on the build machine so that the 64-bit version for
    ExecPackageTask.dll, was available.  I did this from the original media CD selection Integration Services as a feature.
    Hope this helps someone in the future.

  • Do I need flash builder 4 to work with the flex sdk?

    Is it necessary to use flash builder 4 to work with the flex sdk?
    Can you build apps just using the open source flex sdk. If so are there tutorials and books on how to do so?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    No, you don't need Flash Builder to use the Flex SDK. If you download the SDK and unzip it, you'll find a 'bin' directory that has the mxmlc compiler in it. You can compile Actionscript or MXML files using that.
    ./mxmlc MyFlexApp.mxml
    If you are building an AIR application, you will use amxmlc
    ./amxmlc MyAIRFlexApp.mxml
    Then, launch your AIR application using adl
    ./adl.exe MyAIRFlexApp-app.xml
    Hope this helps,

  • Object with argument constructor in ATG

    HI guys
    Is it possible to craete an object with argument constructor with component in atg
    if it is possible give me an example

    With ATG 10.0.3 and later, you can use an $instanceFactory to create objects with constructor objects or create a Nucleus component from factory (either a static class method, or a method of another Nucleus component).
    Documentation (and an example) are here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E36434_01/Platform.10-1-2/ATGPlatformProgGuide/html/s0208parameterconstructorinstancefact01.html

  • Moving distribution list memberships from contact to user object with sync engine

    We only have the FIM sync engine and when replacing an AD contact object with a user object I am being asked to move the distribution lists that the contact is a member of over to the new user object. I've done the contact to user replacement provisioning
    many times before but never had to migrate the group memberships over.
    Does anyone have any advice for the best approach to do this?

    This is what I suspected.  You are not doing conversions.  You are simply Deprovisioning contact and provisioning user. For all intends and purposes, the 2 objects are not related in any shape of form.  So how do you know that this contact
    is related to that user?? 
    What you need is, to have both objects connected at the same time in MV before contact is deprovisioned.  Only this way you know that user 'U' is the same as contact 'C'.  FIM needs to know this.
    For this, you need to have one MV object with 2 AD connectors, one for user and one for contact. You can use to MAs, or you can use code to have one object with 2 connectors.  (Usually this is not allowed, but with code you can pass this)
    Before deprovisioning contact, you do the group membership changes, then you deprovision contact.

  • Building tree using view crateria in view objects

    suppose that i have the following tables "class" ,"group" and "item".
    items in table "item" belong to groups in table "group" and groups belong to classes in table "class" .
    suppose there is another table called "selling_basket" that contains an id for the customer and also a foreign key for rows in item table for the items he sold and a "Customer" table that contains customers id and other informations.
    suppose that i want to build an JSF page that contains a table from a view based on the "customer" table and a tree of herarichy - class
    |_group1
    |_item1
    |_item2
    -class2
    |_group2
    |_item3
    |_group3
    and when i click on a row on table customer the tree only display the herarichy for items that this customer sold just.

    i solve the probel the description as follow :
    . the problem : the problem is that when we use the tree model component with the scenario of filtration on the child nodes, we do a normal transactions of steps on the knowledge that the tree will use the master detail behavior as in table component and other ADF Master-details behaviors, so we build two view criteria one on employee and the other on department with the scenario of displaying only the department who has employees with salary equal some certain value, and only shows the employees who has salary equal that value, and on our code we apply the two criteria on the two view objects with the same value we entered to search for , the scenario works well for the top level nodes, but for child nodes it seems it doesn’t work, the behavior make us walk around our selves for why this happened. By debugging options and Tracing what SQL statements that it executes we found that the system execute two statements on the employee view object one with the bind value with the same we inserted and the other with null value, and we notice that the name of the second view object executed is not what we apply the view criteria for(departmentEO_employeeEO_emo_dept_FK_employeeView).
    .The solution: we notice that the tree component doesn’t use master detail behavior as in tables, and instead of that it uses the View link assessors (the run time generated view object departmentEO_employeeEO_emo_dept_FK_employeeView ), to get the detailed items, so we should override the action of the View link assessor.
    To deal with that we generate the view object rowimpl and viewimpl java classes, in the rowimpl class there is a method to call the link assessors with the following code:
    public RowIterator getEmployeesView()
    this.getAttributeInternal(EMPLOYEESVIEW);
    We write our code:
    public RowIterator getEmployeesView()
    System.out.println("Here");
    ViewObject s=((DepartmentsViewImpl)this.getViewObject()).getViewLinks()[0].getDestination();//we get the employee object by using the view link
    // between department and employee
    // then we apply the view criteria to that view object and return it as view link
    System.out.println("row number "+s.getEstimatedRowCount());
    ViewCriteria evc=s.getViewCriteriaManager().getViewCriteria("EmployeesViewCriteria");
    s.ensureVariableManager().setVariableValue("nSal",((DepartmentsViewImpl)this.getViewObject()).getnSal());
    s.applyViewCriteria(evc);
    s.executeQuery();
    return s;
    Notice that we use the employee view object getted by the view link instead of the master details.

  • Error when building object with DCOM Connector

    Hello everybody,
    I'm new to SAP programming so please forgive my ignorance...
    We are trying to build a com object to call some RFC-functions from a VB 6 application. We use DCOM Connector V6.2, I have MS Visual C++ 6.0 installed, unfortunately I don't know the R/3 version of our client.
    Every time I click the button "Build Component DLL", the following message appears: "cannot read value of registry entry software\sap\mts\proxygenerator\additionalincludedirs"
    This registry entry exists, so I don't know, whats wrong. I run DCOM Connector on Win XP, IE 6. I also tried on a Windows 2000 system, with the same error message.
    I hope you can help me, I searched a long time on the forums and didn't find anything.

    Obviously my question did not get to much interest. Luckily I found out the answer myself.
    The message from the component builder results from this registry key beeing empty. For some reason the SAP GUI installation routine did not fill it out. I then found that by inserting whatever value into that key, the compilation started and hung with another error (file mkenv.inc not found). After surching for that file I found it was installed in C:\Programme\SAP\FrontEnd\SAPgui\rfcsdk\include
    So, bingo, the empty registry value "software\sap\mts\proxygenerator\additionalincludedirs" must be filled "C:\Programme\SAP\FrontEnd\SAPgui\rfcsdk\include" or what corresponds to your installation and it works. At least the component dll was built, I have to test now if it is running correctly...

  • Using Interface Builder to Inspect a New Object?

    I am having a major frustration following a Stanford demo on using Interface Builder. The demo shows how to create a simple slider object with a value. But when the demo pulls up the Inspector Window to examine the new Object, in the Stanford demo the inspector window has panes for CLASS ACTIONS and CLASS OUTLETS, whereas my inspector window, identical in every other respect to the demo window, doesn't have these two panes. Help!!!!!!!!!

    The first lecture gives information about joining the developer program and there are forums similar to this at their website. You can also find forums on private sites on the web that are following the courses and have their own forums for asking questions like this.
    Try one of those paths and you should find more help than on here. This is just end users helping end users not delopers.
