Why are transparent Keynote objects visible in playback?

I often want an object to rotate around one end rather than about the center. My workaround is to duplicate the object in question, flip it around both axes and attach it to the end of the object that I want to be the axis of rotation.
At this point, I'm seeing a mirror image of my object attached to my original object, I make the mirror image object completely transparent (color slider goes to completely transparent, object slider goes to completely transparent).
Now I group the transparent object to the visible object and apply the rotate action. The object appears to rotate about its end as desired. But in playback, I can see the "transparent" object.
I'm at a loss as to how to make a line object any more transparent than to set the color of its lines transparent and to set the object graphics to transparent.

Thanks Tulse,
My real problem is with lines, but your response inspired me to try something I hadn't thought of, and it worked!
Before grouping the "transparent," mirror image to the visible object, remove any arrows from lines, then set the line stroke to None.
Maybe this bug gets fixed in iWork '09, but I'm not holding my breath.

  • Why are shared files not visible when iPhone4S connected to iTunes?

    What makes this problem mysterious is that I have exactly the same settings on the same or eqivalent Apps on iPad2 and iTunes4S but when my iPhone is connected to my iTunes (running on my PC under Win7) it shows no files on Apps like Pages, iBooks, Keynote, and Print-n-share.  Each of these Apps has files and each shows files when  I connect my iPad2.   I cannot export or import filesto/from itunes and iphone because the list of files inside the Apps is not visible in itunes. 
    PS I CAN, btw, export and import files by using the amazing App and service "DropBox" which is the only route in and out of my iPhone (I am not ready to use iCloud).

    This is not a reply but an addition.  While searching for answers as to why "Shared" files in original Apps in my iPhone4S did not appear on itunes I came across a similar discussion on another Forum in which Jim described in some detail how to get the two devices (my iPhone 4S and my iPad2) to recognize similar embedded files in similar Apps.  https://discussions.apple.com/message/16690584#16690584
    I went through this promising procedure but it did not help.  Since the two devices are independent (I think -- they are on the same accoubt but ar different devices) I should be able to make them work the same way with regard to what is seem in iTune.

  • Why are transparent parts of ID file turning to gray in PDF?

    The transparent parts of my InDesign files are going to gray boxes (x-ray looking) around them.  I have done hundreds, if not thousands of PDF's from ID without an issue and all of a sudden this is happening. Though I have already figured out and used a jpeg work-around for now, I am still searching for the answer as to WHY this is happening all of a sudden, without any updates or changes on my end. WHY??? Can anyone else can shed a light on this?  Thanks.

    I guess the question is, has a recent automatic update in Adobe software (this happens in Illustrator CS5.5, too) created a change in how PDF's are processed through their software?  Nothing I have done is different or has been reset...have used all of the software since it's creation, so I'm not a novice whatsoever.  It appears that any shape that is created using the transparency/gradient feature in the software turns to gray in the PDF's when using the save as PDF internal software feature in every configuration (then opens in Acrobat Pro...not Apple Preview, which has it's issues).  This has nothing to do with jpegs or anything else that is placed in the file (my reference to jpegs in my question is how I wound up saving the original file so everything would be flattened).  This work around is not a solution for me.b I am trying to find out if I am stuck with this because of Adobe software updates or something changed recently.  I am not the only person that has posted this issue on the web, but wanted to go straight to Adobe experts to see if anyone could shed any light on it.  Thanks for your time.

  • Why are imported images not visible any more in My Catalogue?

    I am trying to find out if there are limitations in PSE's Organizer that make it pointless for people with large numbers of photos to bother buying PSE 12.
    I imported 1050 JPEGs into My Catalog without problem using PSE 8 but all subsequent imported JPEGs show up as Thumbnails that are Opague with an Hourglass design on them. This makes organizing these images impossibly slow.  When I created a new catalog -- good advice from "andalebbfatima.1" --imported thumbnails were visible again.
    But what to do about the 1050 images in the original catalog? I've got two thick "how-to" books and they say nothing about copying images from one catalog to another.
    More important, to have confidence to buy PSE 12, I need to know what caused the 'invisible' thumbnails in the original catalog and is it something that could happen again after another two years of scanning, importing and trying to organize?

    Glad you got it working.
    For creating multiple catalogs from this original one, you can create copies of the original catalog. Check your catalog location using Help > System Info in Elements Organizer.
    Now copy paste the catalog folder (i.e. the folder having same name as your catalog) in the same location. So now, you have say folders say- MyCatalog and MyCatalog-Copy.
    You may open MyCatalog-Copy from Elements Organizer using File > Manage Catalog. Once this open, you can remove images from it so that only a selected set of images can be organized in this catalog. Now images get deleted from the hard disk in this process. Likewise, you can organize the original catalog.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • Why are security headers not visible when viewing "sent" mail for mail sent with S/MIME certificates?

    I am using an S/MIME certificate to sign my emails using Mail on Mountain Lion 10.8.2.  I have a trusted S/MIME certificate for each of my email accounts.  The certs and private keys are properly installed in the keychain.  I am able to successfully send signed (and optionality encrypted) email and the recipients are all all receiving the emails showing a trusted signed email without having to acknowledge or trust the signature.  So technically the certificates are working.  Obviously the encryption option is only offered when I also have the recipients certficate in my keychain.
    What I am noticing is that when I look in my sent items - (regardless of which email I used as the "sender") - I don't see any indication in the mail headers that the mail was sent with a signed certificate - even though I know the recipient is seeing that the mail is signed with a cert.  I have no way of telling whether I sent the mail as "signed" or "unsiged".  The default is to use the certificate for all outbound emails - unless I specifically uncheck the secure signing option before sending.  In mail that I recieve - sent from others with certs or sent from one of my email accounts to the other - I see the the certificate indication in the email header.
    On rare occasion - I do see the certificate when viewing sent mail - but only for  random sent mails - and so far I believe I have only seen the certificate show up in mail that is sent from my iCloud account.  I can send subsequent mail from iCloud - and still not see the certificate in the sent items.
    Why am I not seeing the Security Header showing the certificate when viewing mail that I have sent in my sent items folder?  Is there some setting that I am not seeing that controls this - or is this a bug in Mac Mail?  Also why does the security header show up for just a handful of sent emails - when hundreds of signed emails have been successfully sent.
    Any help would be appreciated.  The behavior is the same on my other Macs - at least the ones on which the certificates are also installed.
    Also - I don't have my certs installed on my iPhone yet - so I can't tell on the iPhone if the certs are showing up in the sent folder - but I can see the certs on mail that I send to myself from the Mac but receive on the iPhone.
    ~Scott

    I stopped using the S/MIME certs and stopped signing my emails.  Too many recipients were receiving them as "attachements" especially if the recipients email account was on an Exchange server.  My certs have since expired and I have not done anything to further analyze the situation.  My original post was over a year ago and I have long since been on Mavericks.
    To: iddontknowwhoiamsowhat ... I am not totally following your response.  You say you are seeing the exact same issue - yet you are also saying you can look at the sent mails from os x and ios - does this mean that you see the security badges on the sent emails in both os x and ios?  I assume you are on Mavericks?

  • Why are the localStorage objects unavailable to Safari while Private Browsing?

    According to these two sites

    http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/131587/how-can-a-web-site-determine-if- safari-private-browsing-is-turned-on
    HTML5 localStorage objects aren't accessible when users visit sites that use them via a Safari Private Browsing window.
    W3 indicated this is supported: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_webstorage.asp as does https://developer.apple.com/library/safari/documentation/tools/conceptual/safari extensionguide/ExtensionSettings/Extensi…
    I'm hoping to find or establish more information that confirms localStorage objects don't work in Safari Private Browsing windows. All other browsers my team has tried support this in private browsing mode.

  • Why are my emails only visible for @ six weeks then they disappear?

    They look different because the screens for POP3 and IMAP accounts are different. As I said in my first response, you didn't provide any information about the type of email that you were using in your original post.

  • Why are my finished DVDs pausing during playback?

    I kind of fell into producing a Dance Recital DVD when my videographer failed to show.  I recorded all footage first then started to play with Pr CS3.  I mixed all dances (recorded on 2 cams) seperately and exported them from Pr as AVIs.  I ended up with 39 seperate movie files which I then manually added to an En CS4 project on a seperate computer.  I added all 39 files as assets into 1 timeline and used the "export to chapter list" feature to make 40 seperate chapters (39 dances + a full show chapter).  I kept the menus as simple as possable with no motion or video.  Due to the total length of the video 2:14:07 I went with DL DVDs.  When I use the preview function everthing looks good, but when I burn it to DVD both the audio and video hang or pause for approximatly 1-2 seconds in 5 seperate dances.  This happens when I play the full show, and when I select the chapters individually.  I have tried to change some of the settings and re-burn the DVD but I get the pauses in the same locations for the same chapters.  I checked the AVI files and they play without the pauses.
    Reading through the fourms I don't really know if its a transcoding problem, a layer-split issue with the duel layer disc, a weak computer, or if Adobe just doesn't like me.  It seems like I've been fighting this entire project begining with CS3 not liking the JVC MOD format, to burning the master discs for replication.  Can someone point me in the right direction as to troubleshooting my pausing issue?
    Since I will be doing another show for X-Mas If anyone has suggestions as far as workflow improvements, I would really appreciate a heads-up in that area too.
    basic Comp stats:
    Celeron [email protected] GHz
    2Gb Ram
    Win 7  64bit

    Could be lots of things.
    used the "export to chapter list" feature to make 40 seperate chapters (39 dances + a full show chapter). 
    Are you referring to "Create Chapter Index"?
    I would create a new project using just one avi that had problems, and see if the problem shows up there.

  • Why are my emails not visible in Mac Mail?

    I have a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012), 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB.
    Running 10.10 Yosemite.  Have not had trouble until this morning. Was working in mail and suddenly  I could no longer see any emails.
    I closed out of mail & opened it again, that did not help. Turned off the computer. No luck. It still shows that I have emails and I can even send
    & receive emails. I just can not see them.

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
              Envelope Index
              ExternalUpdates.storedata
    Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

Yesterday, I had to restore from a Time Machine backup because something had suddenly eaten all the space on my startup drive. However, these files were visible prior to the restore.
