questions of basic reference point

I have a rectangle and the reference point is in the upper left corner, and I scale down the left upper anchor. I cancel it and change the reference point to the Center and do the same thing. I don't seem to notice a difference with how it gets set to scale down. Am I misunderstand how the reference point?

Thank you

Seems to me that if you're looking for Alt or Alt/Shift when dragging to resize an object from its Center.

  • Find anchored objects (reference point and exposed position) script

    Hi all

    is there anyway to find anchored (reference point and exposed position) of inDesign objects and overthrow their attributes or change them in all the documents, I opened, but by the script because sometimes when I try to do that find and replace option files crash or replacement process does not receive all wanted items

    ex:

    I want to find objects anchored with below attributes

    Hello

    Try this code to find and change,

  • Why is there not a reference point locator in the scale tool dialog box in Illustrator?

    I guess that's also a suggestion that it is, but why isn't there a reference point locator in the scale tool dialog box in Illustrator? Maybe the function exists and I'm not aware, but it would just using the tool of the easier level. I realize, I can type in mathematics to scale upwards or downwards in the palette transform or workspace, but the scale tool dialog box offers the additional advantage to allow you to preview the results, while the other options are not. Am I missing something? Any help is appreciated.

  • Scale multiple objects, with the Center as a reference point, without moving the Group

    Hello-

    I want to scale multiple objects, their Center, without moving the group. I found how to change the objects of the Centre (setting of the reference point in the transformation to the Center and using the free transform tool Panel), but I would choose a bunch of objects and move towards the top of the Center, without the group get larger.

    I want to use it for the highlights on the plans. Say I have 25 small circles with numbers in them on the plan and I want to blow up to 200%, but I want to stay in the same place, is it possible to do both? Or do I have to re - intensify each object individually? The problem that I am running is even if I'm upgrading the scale objects from the Center, the moving objects and losing their place on the map. So, I made each of them individually.

    Thanks for any help!

    Not quite what you want, but if you make one, you can select the rest and the object > transform again > transform again individually.

  • Set the reference point for several objects in the middle of the document

    Hello community,

    I want to mirror a layout.

    I: Yes

    1. Select all objekts

    2. set the benchmark in the Middle

    3. objects in mirror

    BUT

    The reference point is in the middle of all the OBJECTS. This led to several objects across the border into my document because the layout is not spread out on a regular basis.

    I want through the DOCUMENT will be the point of reference. How can I do?

    Thank you

    Christian

    Have you fiugured this out yourself?

    I just played a little and found a method, but it is not really intuitive. Select the object, then go to the rotation tool. The center of rotation must be defined as one of the handles of transformation, but you can drag it anywhere you like, then move until you want as the center of your mirror. Hold down the Opt/Alt key and click on the button to create a mirrored copy. The objects original reflects their position around the reference repositioned without the modifier key.

  • Move the object by the "reference Point".

    I need to move the images on my document using different reference points. But it seems that by default, it moves using the 'AnchorPoint.TOP_LEFT_ANCHOR '. I can't change it.

    Here is my code:

    myDoc var = app.activeDocument;

    var changeRefPoint = app.activeWindow.transformReferencePoint = AnchorPoint.TOP_RIGHT_ANCHOR;

    if(MyDoc.Selection.Length == 1)

    {

    If (app.selection [0].constructor.name == "Rectangle")

    {

    var rectangle_graph = app.selection [0].move([159,61.3]);

    }

    }

    Hi Ken0207,

    I'm afraid that the setting of PageItem.move (in, in) is always top-left-anchor parent, regardless of the current transformReferencePoint.

    I can't test it in depth, but the following function should do the job:

    function moveToConsideringAnchor(obj, xyDest, anchorPt)
    // -------------------------------------
    //       :  any singular PageItem specifier
    //    :  [x,y] location expressed in the current ruler space
    //  :  the considered AnchorPoint (default is top-left)
    {
        if( !(obj && obj.transform) ) return;
    
        var CS_PASTEBOARD = CoordinateSpaces.pasteboardCoordinates;
    
        anchorPt || (anchorPt=AnchorPoint.topLeftAnchor);
    
        var xy0 = obj.resolve(anchorPt,CS_PASTEBOARD)[0],
            xy1 = obj.resolve([xyDest, anchorPt],CS_PASTEBOARD,true)[0],
            dx = xy1[0]-xy0[0],
            dy = xy1[1]-xy0[1];
    
        obj.transform(CS_PASTEBOARD,[0,0],[1,0,0,1,dx,dy]);
    }
    
    // ---
    // SAMPLE CODE
    // ---
    
    // Your settings:
    var CONSIDERED_ANCHOR = AnchorPoint.BOTTOM_RIGHT_ANCHOR,
        XY_DESTINATION = [159,61.3]; // in ruler space
    
    var sel = (1==app.selection.length) && app.selection[0];
    
    if( sel instanceof Rectangle )
        {
        moveToConsideringAnchor(sel, XY_DESTINATION, CONSIDERED_ANCHOR);
        }

  • Make the absolute displacement using central reference point

    I want to place a large number of images of varying proportions, using the central reference point at the same point in each page.  I played with the move, and he always seems to use the upper left point.  My reading of the literature suggests that I would get the same results with transformation.

    I realize that I could do the calculations to make the move, but hope I'm missing something and there is a much simpler way to do.

    Thanks in advance

    Jerry

    I finally just did the calculations - it doesn't seem like elegent as moving using the reference of the Center but it works.

    Here is a snippet of the code with the warning that 6.125 and 5.0 are hard-coded and they shouldn't really be OCD made me round up things...

    XY = myObject.geometricBounds
    height = xy (2) - xy (0)
    width = xy (3) - xy (1)
    x_position = round (6.125 - (width/2), 3)
    y_position = round (5.0 - (height/2), 3)
    myObject.move Array (x_position, y_position)

  • Free transform: drag the reference point?

    So when you use the transform tool it has a button to change the reference point at 9 different locations. But I need set the reference point at a specific location in the image. Can't I put manually, by dragging or something?

    While you can do in the full version of photoshop elements

    does not seem to allow for this.

  • Change a reference point of the components

    Perhaps it is trivial and I just a case of the Mondays, but how do I change a reference point of the components.  For example a canvas, as well as 0,0 is at its Center and not at the top left.

    Thanks in advance.

    You can not, you calculate all the stuff you want to keep in mind that the registration point is at 0,0. The event if you can find a way to change the registration point (which in theory can be done, but it is not as simple as that), that it would be completely unnecessary and it could lead to just hurt most.

  • Question of RMAN restore points

    Hello

    I'm on the 11.2.0.3 Oracle database. Currently, we have RMAN scripts that make incremental backups and weekly/monthly full daily. My daily script is as below:

     allocate channel t1 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_usrFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/tdpo.usr)';
     allocate channel t2 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_usrFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/tdpo.usr)';

     report schema;
     release channel t1;
     release channel t2;
     release channel t3;
    }
    

    And the script to backup weekly as below:

    {
     allocate channel t1 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_usrFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/tdpo.usr)';
     allocate channel t2 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_usrFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/tdpo.usr)';
     allocate channel t3 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_usrFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin64/tdpo.usr)';
     backup incremental level 0 format 'prod_weeklybackup_%d_%s_%t'  database;
     backup format 'prodarchbackup_%d_%s_%t' archivelog all not backed up 1 times;
     release channel t1;
     release channel t2;
     release channel t3;
    }
    

    My two questions are:

    1. can I add a "restore point" for the backup script daily, without the clause "keep until the"?

    2. can I add a restore point whose name is generated dynamically, for weekly backup, for example: weekly_rest_point_13082013, including therefore the current date?

    Hello

    1. can I add a "restore point" for the backup script daily, without the clause "keep until the"?

    I think not, is to keep to the required field

    2. can I add a restore point whose name is generated dynamically, for weekly backup, for example: weekly_rest_point_13082013, including therefore the current date?

    Don't you cannot assign the dynamic name in name of the restore point.

    It should be as it is to say

  • Questions of NFS mount points

    I have two questions about how the NFS mount points is in fact from the point of view NFS servers.

    If the mount point of the 'outside' is considered as for example / ISO, would this mean

    1. that the directory is named "iso" or could it be a real name on the local file system on the NAS Server? (As in the names of SMB share, could be different from the name of folder.)

    2. that the folder is actually located directly on the root of the local file system, which is/ISO on the server, or would it be for example/dir1/dir2/iso and always to the outside as appearance / ISO? (As in the SMB, where 'share' creates a new root somewhere on the filesystem that is exposed to the outside.)

    ricnob wrote:

    Thank you! It would be a typical NFS-Unix/Linux server?

    Yes.

    So perhaps it is not defined in the standard how this should be done, but can vary between implementations? (* nix of course most common.)

    Possible, but does MS ever meet standards? Even their own?

    RFC1094/NFS:

    "Different operating systems may have restrictions on the depth of the tree or used names, but also using a syntax different tor represent the"path", which is the concatenation of all the"components"(file and directory names) in the name...". Some operating systems provide a 'mount' operation to make all file systems appear as a single tree, while others maintain a 'forest' of file systems... NFS looking for a component of a path at the same time.  It may not be obvious why he did not only take the name of way together, stroll in the directories and return a file handle when it is carried out.  There are many good reasons not to do so.  First, paths need separators between items in the directory, and different operating systems use different separators.  We could define a representation of network Standard access path, but then each path must be analyzed and converted at each end.

  • Question of weak references

    In general, I always use weak references when adding listeners. However this am I had tripped upward for some time, doing so and want to dig deeper and understand why the GC instantly removed the listener. So, here's the barebones of the class:

    public class smoke

    {

    private var clip: MovieClip;

    private var container: DisplayObjectContainer;

    public void Smoke($clip:MovieClip,_$container:DisplayObjectContainer,_x:int,_y:int):void

    {

    Clip = $clip;

    container = $container;

    clip.x = x;

    clip.y = y;

    clip.addEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, update, false, 0, true);

    }

    private void update(e:Event):void

    {

    clip.Alpha-=. 01;

    If (clip.alpha < = 0) {}

    container.removeChild (clip);

    clip.removeEventListener (Event.ENTER_FRAME, update);

    }

    }

    In the constructor, when I add the listener enter_frame, using a weak reference, as shown, update never gets called... with the help of a strong reference works fine however. So, why the GC instantly removes the listener in this case?

    DOH! Nevermind, I thought about my own question as soon as I aksed it... is not always occur? Because the clip has not been added to the display list, the headset has been removed. The manufacturer just need: container.addChild (clip); and then the weak reference works as expected.

  • Question of basic rendering settings

    Promised I looked several threads on this, but all the solutions seem to be beyond the level I need!

    All I need is a standard export .mov or .mp4 for play in a media player.

    I usually just export, which is apparently average cretinism to do, that works perfectly normally, but for this project, After Effects hangs to half way through.

    I did render on a defining mov, which is ok, but not the same quality as my RAM Preview on full.

  • object reference/pointer?

    Hello

    I have a 'hand' that dynamically creates a custom runtime class objects. The user can then change the properties of these objects on the stage. for example, text, color, alpha.

    My problem is that when I try to change a property of an object, such as text, each object created from this change of class in the same way.

    What is the best way to reference a particular object that I have created and added to the stage, passing a pointer/reference to 'main' or using some kind of flag to remember what object or any other method etc.

    I just realized how I create each object is 'var objectName:MyClass = new MyClass();' in a function that is called when you click on an add"" button. So, I need to tell the difference between these MyClass objects that have the same name (the declaration).

    Thank you in advance,

    or you can use a property of your class items like the DisplayObject instance uses the "name" property, so that you can check out objects using their property.
