How can I make rectangular bubbles that adapt to the text inside them without the "arrow" that points to where the bubble comes to have changed?

I do a lot of bubbles (150 +) who all text inside of them, which are distinguished by length. I want the balloons to look the same in terms of style, but I need different sizes of course for each of these texts. This means that the rectangular part of the speech bubble must adapt to the length and the width of the text on the inside, while the "arrow" to where the bubble is coming (e.g., the person who speaks) should stay the same on each bubble. So is there a way or a workaround to these bubbles "adaptation"?

I appreciate any kind of help

Thanks in advance!

You can do this by using the option of automatic resizing the text block and a separate object (or 2) to the pointer / arrow.

Create a text block that auto sizes away from the direction of the needle. Make sure that the line on the block of text is aligned to the outside. Draw a pointer with the pen tool and give it the same stroke and fill as the text block.

Then you must carefully align endpoints of the pointer on the edge of the text block or if you want perfect-looking for joins, have endpoints of the pointer the text block overlap and cover them with another frame, filled with the same color of filling the text block.

You may need to experiment with the position and the size of this frame obscuring so it becomes visible when the text block is resized. Here is an excerpt, you might be able to use as a starting point. Dropbox - resizing_speechbubble.idms

  • How can I make and delete a snapshot of the command line in ESXi 4?

    How can I make and delete a snapshot of the command line in ESXi 4?  ghettoVCB4i does, but I need unusual behaviour for two virtual machines.  I need to be able to save only one of the two virtual drives, not both.  So I can't use this script here.  I need to write a script that will:

    1 copy off the .vmx

    2 make a snapshot of a virtual computer running

    3 use the vmkfstools command to clone the vmdk in the backup location

    4 remove the snapshot.

    The snapshot is the part that I do not know how.  I do not see a flash drive in vmkfstools and I do not understand the snapshot code in ghettoVCB4i.

    Thank you!

    vmkfstools is a tool for working with VMDK, has nothing to do with stereotypes. In the Busybox unsupported console, the only tool that you can use for some of the management of the virtual computer is vim-cmd , which is about a wrapper for VMware vimsh, take a look at our site for more information: http://engr.ucsb.edu/~duonglt/vmware/#vmware_vimsh

    Basically, you're going to do something like the following:

    vim-cmd "vmsvc/snapshot.create XXXX FIRST_SNAPSHOT MY_FIRST_SNAPSHOT_1"
    

    where XXXX is VmId to the virtual machine that is retrieved from vmsvc/getallvms, then you are going to deliver the snapshot.remove

    Here are some other useful commands dealing with snapshots:

    Vim - cmd vmsvc/snapshot.removeall \[VmId]

    [[[vim - cmd vmsvc/snapshot.remove \[VmId\] \[removeChildren\] \[snapshotLevel\] \[snapshotIndex\]

    Vim - cmd vmsvc/snapshot.get \[VmId\]

    ghettoVCB4i uses vimsh to do these things as well.

  • How can I make a button that presses that the object appears and the second press the object disappear

    Hello

    I'm quite new to flash programming, and I don't know how I can make a button that will make the object appear and disappear. Up to now, I have this code for calling:

    (press)

    {

    _root.top1.gotoAndStop (2);

    _root. Topp.gotoAndStop (2);

    _root. MM1.gotoAndStop (2);

    _root. M1.gotoAndStop (2);

    }

    but where I'm stuck.

    Thank you for your help

    What you can do, it's the object _visible property allows you to appear and disappear, or more correctly, use the _visible property opoosite.  You should not put the code 'on' objects, keep it in the timeline.

    If the 'object' is the name of the instance of the object you want to fail over, and then in the code to the timeline you can use...

    Object._visible = false;  First, the object is invisible

    yourButtonName.onRelease = function() {}

    Object._visible =! object._visible;

    }

    Only one line in the function sets _visible to be opposite of what it currently is.

  • How can I make windows 7 clean install on the new hp?

    I just bought a H8XT.  He took over with a bunch of useless software.  I want to format the hard drive and reinstall windows 7 me.  However, the computer came not with the disc of the operating system.  How can I do this?  My last computer is a Dell that came with the operating system software, and it was pretty simple.  I do not know how without the operating system disks.  Thank you.

    As o_g suggested, first create your HP recovery disk.

    Download the ISO (disk image) of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit a company named Digital River download Microsoft partner. Once this downloaded, you have to burn the image on a DVD to an installation of Windows 7 bootable disc.

  • How can I make orders save their State when the project is closed?

    I am currently working on the program for a compact RIO which will be used with a variety of instruments. Some data on each of these instruments calibration must be entered into the program via the controls on the front panel, so they can produce the correct value (for example, the input range and a pressure transducer units are required for the program to a scale of 4-20 my reading in a pressure reading).

    The problem that I am running is that, every time I close the project and open it again, all calibration checks back to their default value. What I want to do is to save their State whenever the program is closed so that if you reopen the project without changing the material you don't have to re-enter the calibration values. Can someone tell me how this can be done automatically?

    I know that this can be done manually by saying to each control to set the current value to its default value, but I'd rather not have to do whenever we change the calibration constants. Ideally, the user does not have to use the context menus like this.


  • How can I make F3 does not bring up the search function

    I don't want windows to bring up the search function whenever I hit F3. How can I change the windows keyboard shortcuts so I can get him to stop?

    I; m do not know how in Vista, but the following program http://www.autohotkey.com/ claims to be able to remap existing keyboard keys and can help you remove the F3 function or at least let you change to another function.

    Here is another free software that claims to be able to do the same: http://www.frkeys.com/doc/edit_keyboard_shortcuts.html.

    I'm not sure that these programs actually work with the F3 hotkey and since they are 3 third party programs, use you them at your own risk.  I suggest the creation of a restore systemm point and back up the registry before you try both methods to be on the safe side.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • How can I make my hd images look like the old formats?

    I am currently working on a project where I want back to the transition from the looks of the old formats like DV and VHS early cassettes. I'm really interested in the differences between the formats aesthetically, but in other words, I don't know what the differences are. I found how to simulate interlacing and contrast of the limitations of the old formats. He always looks very digital for me however. How can I simulate that look hot and faded from first consumer cameras?

    Add a bit of blur and effects as Timewarp allows you to add a little "smear sensor. Also consider separating the channels and compensation slightly at the subpixel level to mimic the lack of alignment of sensor cells. And then of course the usual - noise, a little wiggle position to simulate the irregular Strip transport, possibly roll bars and other artifacts video typical as well as some very heavy color corrections. For example an old DV film has almost no own blues due to subsampling of the chrominance and everything is transformed in purples, dark blue petrol and turquoise. Same thing for the Greens and the reds with yellow casts...

  • How can I make three buttons that change color when selected...

    Without that ugly radio button select view on them? We want a part of our form to be a stolight - red, yellow, green color and we want users to be able to click on one of them to indicate green light, red light or put in custody. I did the buttons in Indesign, but I can't figure out how to make buttons come with this feature.

    This is their sole purpose, they do not need values associated with them. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    As a MouseUp event of the button use this code:

    if (color.equal(event.target.fillColor, color.red)) event.target.fillColor = color.yellow;
    else if (color.equal(event.target.fillColor, color.yellow)) event.target.fillColor = color.green;
    else if (color.equal(event.target.fillColor, color.green)) event.target.fillColor = color.red;
    

    Then manually set the fill in red color and you're ready to go...
