Unique gradient Annotator only appear when it is applied to a group of objects

always impossible to get degraded Annotator to systematically display when I want that it?

I have a group of objects, I want to adjust the gradient that runs through all objects in the group as a gradient, I created

If I select the group with the Selection tool and then click on the gradient tool, I do not see the Annotator.

If I select an object in the group with the direct Selection tool and then click gradient tool I see the Annotator, but when I adjust and rotate the Annotator it only affects this selected object 1.

If I select all objects in the group by displacement by selecting them all one by one, and then choose the gradient tool, a whole bunch of gradients annotators appear for each object in the group, but none for the total group that I dragged through.

I've already chosen, display/show degraded annotator

so, basically, that I can't get the unique gradient Annotator that I dragged through multiple to show once again after objects dragging to adjust its position and to see the color stop, I can only redrag a new via the objects again.

Maybe you can't do?

The Annotator appears only on unique items. As you have discovered.

Any attempt to get it to appear on a group of objects is futile. The reasoning behind this is that each object has its own gradient applied to it. If you had to choose a group of, oh, let's say 15 items, you would see 15 annotators and they would be cluttering the screen so that you would be unable to say where to edit. If all 15 objects had the same applied gradient, you would have 15 Annotators stacked on each other... do edit the 'group' pretty hard.

The Annotator appears only when a single object (including the compound forms) is selected.

  • Question of strange shadows fall: only appears when you drag on the artboard

    I applied a soft shadow silver drop white to an image placed on a piece of Illustrator.  The shadow only appears when I drag the selection on the artboard (in the gray area that surrounds the artboard).  Drag on the piece and without shadow.  Make sure the image is presented front and background sent to the rear. STILL NOTHING.

    Thoughts?  This photo is not the best but you can kind of see how the soft white shadow stops abruptly on the black background on the edge of the artboard.

  • PDF forms have problems displaying text and only appears when the field is selected

    Hello

    I created pdf forms to be distributed to the clients of the company. But we have some people complain about the visibility of the text. When they work as a team, the pdf they receive from a third party often appears limes or no text, the text is only visible when the field is selected. I need to find a solution for this, because our company's products are based on this form.

    If there is any information addition that I must add to understand what is happening and how to fix it, I'll be happy to write it.

    In society, we all have mac and forms where innitially created in Adobe acrobat 9 pro, but we now have Adobe acropabt pro XI.

    Users of Mac and Windows systems.

    Thank you

    This is usually caused by the form is filled out and saved by a Mac user who uses the preview application to view the PDF file. More information is here: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/885/cpsid_88564.html

    It's a good idea to inform your users that Adobe Reader (or Acrobat) should be used to work with Forms.

  • Add on tool bar appears, but add ons, and new custom toolbar only appears when the Customize window open - toolbar does not name in list of the toolbar?

    I used view = > toolbars = > and ticked all the toolbars that I want to appear. BUT add it to the toolbar appears blank (i.e. toolbar but no add ons). AND the new custom toolbar that I created is not yet listed in the toolbars available for check or not. The only way I can get to show upward (but no function) is by clicking the Customize button. The toolbar remains open as long as the window is customize, and I can add/remove/rearrange icons, but not use any of their functions (for example. I added a new button to the custom toolbar window, but when I click of course nothing happens, because another window - window customize - is still open). I need a way to lock the toolbar, so I can access buttons to use it please!
    BTW use Windows 8 and just went from IE (and fearing that I'll have to downgrade...)
    TNX so much.

    In my opinion, which suggests that what you were actually doing was to customize the toolbar of the addons. Firefox is quite flexible and you can for example put the print icon on the toolbar of the modules or the bookmarks toolbar, and not only on a new designed user a custom toolbar.

    Many modules are designed by their developers do not make use of the toolbar of the add-on. Some add-ons appear on other menus. Collusion shows also in the Tools menu. Some use the page modules interface for results or settings.

  • How to make a dynamic buffer only appear when the document is printed?

  • Text of the form only appears when the cursor is in the field

    I created a form and sometimes, when it is filled and returned to me, empty fields. If I place my cursor in the field, see text responses.  What can I do to fix this?

    It is a question of the user.  This happens usually when someone is using one program other than Adobe Reader or Acrobat to fill in the form, such as Mac preview.  You can simply put a text box on the form asking the user to download and fill out using Adobe Reader with a link to the Web site OR if you do not receive a form in this way you can "show" the fields by following these steps.  (Assuming you have at least Adobe Acrobat Standard):

    Form open with hidden data.

    Go to the forms > manage form data > export data

    Save the file as XDP.  Close the form.

    Reopen and go to:

    Forms > manage form data > import data

    -import the XDP file, you just created.

    Should now show all your fields.  Saves time when you have a prepared form.  Keep in mind that some of your data have no AutoFormat as the user has not used Adobe to complete the form and some fields may require 'clearing '.

  • How to make the gradient Annotator appear?

    I read that you must make sure that you change fill a purpose for this tool to appear, but I found this isn't always the case.

    Is there something else required for the gradient Annotator to appear?

    Thanks for any info!

    Make sure you do NOT have a 'group' is selected or that you're targeting a background or contour assigned at the level of the group. The Annotator will appear only when objects are selected. It can also be hidden. "Option / Cmd + G ' will toggle its visibility.

  • Captivate 8 - quiz - keep the button appears when quiz is incorrect; only meant to show when the minimum answers are correct.

    I have a quiz 8 Captivate, I have been struggling with - having several questions, but I'll deal with this one first.  Right now, it's the button continue.  It is supposed to only appear when the answers of the quiz are correct (70% to 'continue').  When the answers below the minimum of 70%, the Retake Quiz button, makes however the continue button.  Is there a solution for this?  BTW, the is my button, a smart shape, I did and use it as a button to continue.

    The standard button to continue on the Quiz results slide appears always right from the beginning of this slide.  You cannot see towards the end of the time, or show/hide with advanced Actions.  One option that you have is hide it under one of the other buttons (for example the quiz recovery button).  Simply place this right on top of the button continue.  Then the learner can not see until they have passed the quiz or exhausted their attempts.

  • Taskbar does not appear when I mouse over

    My taskbar is set to auto-hide.  Until recently, apparently when I got my mouse pointer on the task bar area.  Now, he only appears when I click on the task bar area and remains visible until I click on the desktop.  How can I get that back to appearing when I smile on and disappears when I move the mouse out of it?

    Try this. Bring up the taskbar properties, check or uncheck auto hide, then click on apply. then check or uncheck auto hide again, then click on apply. It seems that changing some auto hide setting is on and reset of this return, the taskbar functioning correctly again

  • See a strange "flat" on a stroke. Only happens when the stroke is applied to a group

    I've struggled with some files from old design at work, and after an afternoon of the fixation of the paths open and such yesterday, I encountered a strange problem today.

    I worked on the application of a thick line outside our organization logo. Because the logo is made up of several paths, to be applied to the needs of the race overall, otherwise the race for a single path will cover another part of the logo.

    Anyway, I apparently fixed it and it worked for what I had, but today, I noticed a strange thing going.

    A small part of the race was a "flat" notable on one of the curves. I can't understand what is happening with it.

    Seen in the middle of this screenshot (path has a blue background, white outline).

    Screen Shot 2016-02-24 at 12.52.00 PM.png

    I played a bit and figured out that if the race is only applied to a path, there is no flat. However, when it is applied to the group, he's here.

    It is always very slightly noticeable suddenly 1pt, but each additional point, it becomes more obvious. !

    Any ideas?

    Who does not unfortunately.

    It seems to have solved the problem, but it's one of those unsatisfactory hotfixes that isn't really you say anything about the problem!

    I clicked on the handle on one adjacent anchor elements and, without releasing the mouse, he walked away, then he returned to the same place. That seems to have done, even if there was no real change.

    Well...

  • Annotator of gradient will not appear

    Hello world

    On the last 45 minutes, I go crazy because everywhere wherever I look, it says you can see gradient Annotator by simply going to view-> show/hide gradient Annotator.  However, no option seems to work.  For example, I leave Illustrator, restarted, drew a simple circle, live painting, he filled a regular gradient, but no Annotator presented themselves.  I made sure that the option Show Gradient Annotator has been put in view.  I then turned off it and turn it back on to see if the Annotator arise then, still with no luck.  Looks like a big bug for me.

    I remember that she is there in the past, but now he simply never shown, regardless of what I do.  Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance a ton.

    I think the problem is that you did the chart a live paint object. If you apply a gradient to a live paint object, the Annotator appears only when you use the gradient tool to set the positioning of your gradient - and only during this action. Annotator remain on screen, for you must fill your chart using degraded without convert it to a live paint object. And he remains on the screen until you have selected the gradient tool and the selected chart.

  • How to save a PDF georeferenced with annotations and comments (for example text boxes) so that they will appear when opened with an application like Avenza?

    I am creating georeferenced PDF maps using a mapping program, I have no problem to open the PDF with Adobe Reader / Acrobat. I use Adobe Acrobat to add annotations and comments to the map in PDF format, and I can still not display the annotations and comments when I re - open the file with Adobe Reader / Acrobat. However, when I try to open the file on Avenza, overhead rates disappear. Anyone know how I can save annotations and comments so that they appear when you open the file with all the Apps? This is perhaps a question that arises for the specific application in question - Avenza. Thanks for any input.

    3rd party software may or may not support what Acrobat Reader on mobile devices. If the content does not appear, then your not likely Adobe software does not support this content. For example, many PDF viewers accept the forms. However, it is a question, you should ask your provider of software 3rd party.

    HTH,

  • I received a pdf file and the words in the text of the form filled in and saved tabs/forms appears only in the only filed when you click on this field.

    Hi, the text in tabs/forms of the form filled in and saved text doesn't appear when you click on this tab and field offices. When I go to another tab / filed, it disappears. I need to see everything at once.

    Auto-fill text fields is inactivated.  I have acrobat Pro XI / Win764bit. I can't find anything useful in the German speaking forums (there you will find only: save it on your desktop, open the with another program - not adobe, save it as a .jpg, use the preview and save/print pdf, open with photo shop and so forth but nothing works.)

    It would be good to get a link to an old solution or a useful answer.

    Kind regards

    Is there a chance that the application overview on Mac has been used to complete and save the form? What you describe is a typical sign that it was like overview corrupts PDF forms in a number of ways. You can fix this in Acrobat if you have access to a blank form uncorrupted by exporting the form with FDF data and important in the blank form.
