How is it with the same z 3D layers don't line up properly?

I have a publication with more than one layer 3D enabled.

I have a layer in position Z 400.  I would like to add a text on the same level as my original layer (the same depth)... so I create the text and set the Z position to 400.  But when I move my camera, it is clear that the elements are NOT aligned on the same plane.

By trial and error, I am able to simply move the new text back until where it crosses the original layer and adjust from there... and I find myself with layers that look pretty darn close, but with very different values of Z-position.  I am able to use this workaround for now, but it bothers me that these coordinates are not behaving the way I was expecting.  Is this normal?

Any thoughts?

Problem solved.

Turns out I had a second layer of 'SHE', set in a different place, and that's who I was playing with.  I feel like a fool.

Thank you all for your suggestions.  It is encouraging to know that the coordinates of location should actually operate in absolute terms.

  • Recommendation req - how two database with the same name can exist on a single server

    Description of the problem: I have a database named 'aaa' (9i db) in production and we need a copy of it to create 'aaa' in the same server with the same name, but an 11g database.

    9i 'aaa' is an exixting database in an AIX 5.3 Server.
    You will need to create a copy of this database 11 g named 'aaa' on the same server. I use the utility exp and imp db, but not sure how far it is recommended to have the same db names in a single server. Not sure about listener etc. problems.

  • I just want to know if it is possible to go from flash to indesign with the same plan. I don't want to cancel, but I need to access a different program now.

    I'm no longer using Adobe Flash, but I now need access to the Indesign program. Is it possible to change, but keep the same plan that I currently use. I don't want to cancel and pay the fee if I have just produced.

    As I said, I doubt that they will allow this reasoning to stand as a reason for switching plans.  They don't base their plans on the temporary needs of the population.  They are more likely to encourage them to enroll in the student plan that includes applications... or possibly their more expensive monthly plan whatever, arguing your point here is not to matter as the decision rests with anyone contact you support.

  • How can I restart firefox with the same tabs and windows?

    How can I restart firefox with the same tabs and windows?

    It is not in the file menu or tools. I get nothing when searching for help. FF still knows how to do it, say to update extensions.

    I know that I can do by saving my session, coming out, reboot and restore the session but is there a single command to do this?

    Thank you. -David

    I have attached a screenshot showing how to select restore automatic session just above the setting of the Home Page where it says "When Firefox starts".

    With this set, you can restart Firefox manually out using the menu-

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    -and then restart Firefox.

    If you want a real reboot with a click of button, you can check something on the Add-ons site: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/

  • where to save the files under options the file name is duplicated how to remove an additional folder with the same name

    Under Options in Firefox, I clicked on save the files under downloads, but the file name twice and an additional file with the same name is created in the folder, i.e.:

    G:\Akbar's Songs\HAMARA DOWNLOADS\HAMARA FORUMS DOWNLOADS FORUMS

    As you can see the file repeats, how can I fix it?

    Also the music files, I download from a site of downloads as a WinRar file and I need to open it. Y at - it an option where the file opens automatically in the folder I chose?

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Hi Akush, when you install 7 - zip, make itself the default application to open .zip and .rar files. So if you double click on the .rar file, it should open in 7 - zip. If you prefer to decompress immediately, right click the file and look for new 7 - zip items in the menu. I can't think of a way to do this automatically, however.

  • How to use transfer windows for xp to xp. When I plug usb computers are delivered to the top with the same screen and when I try to use the transfer to the new computer, it just said information gathering and sits for hours

    How to use transfer windows for xp to xp.  When I plug usb computers are delivered to the top with the same screen and when I try to use the transfer to the new computer, it just said information gathering and sits for hours

    Hello, welcome.

    The process is automatic and the maximum transfer rate should be about 20 GB/HR. If the process crashes during that long of a time, it's probably because of something internal rather something you're doing wrong.
    For reference purposes, I included this link. It goes into the details of the migration from XP to Vista (and the basic steps you follow). The instructions are for migrating to Vista via the network, but you can easily follow the steps and choose a different option for your specific installation.
    For both machines, I recommend you to prepare for the transfer using the following procedure:
    1. click on START > run
    2 type "msconfig" (without the quotes) and press enter
    3. go to the "Startup" tab and uncheck all the entries displayed
    4. click on 'Apply' at the bottom right
    DO NOT RESTART YOUR COMPUTER AGAIN
    5. click on START > run
    6. Type "cmd" (without the quotes). Right-click on the result at the top of the menu START and select 'run as administrator '.
    7. type chkdsk /r and press enter
    8 allow the system to attempt disassembly of the volume
    9. allow the system to plan restarting
    10. restart your computer
    11 let checkdisk analyze the file system on your hard drive
    12. Once completed, perform the same steps on the other machine
    13. Once completed, repeat the transfer

  • How can I extract a series of CDs of music with the same title, but each with its own number of CD?
