It's a horrible webex proprietary format. The best thing to do is download it and use a .arf player that you can download from webex.

BTW registration now open for the March 4th workshop. You can do it via a link on www.enfocus.com

Tracy

Thought I would post it here too

Touched on color management yesterday
and some various ways to convert blacks from word docs

Tracy

Going thru the webinars, they created an action which included "add text" but I'm
not seeing it in the list, is that a pitstop 13 feature?

Joe

Must be. I don't see it in Pitstop 12.

Look for ADD OBJECT in the ADD category, then select the TEXT option (line|rectangle|elipse|text), the added action will then display as Add Text. Can you find that in your version?

Tracy

Yes! I do see it
I will try and make the action.
Thanks Swampy!

Tracy

My pitstop move tool is not working, any ideas?

Farabomb

Have you tried turning it off and back on again?

I can drag with it but can't use the arrow keys, hmm 

Joe

You have to hold the COMMAND key down to use the arrow keys. I think there is aPitstop preference you can change so you don't have to. (I think)

I think I have used the arrow kets in the past without the command key.

The preference is just for dragging it with the mouse. I leave it turned off so I don't accidentally move something when clicking around. Then I have to hold the COMMAND key down to move it either with the mouse or via the arrow keys on the keyboard. I know for the keyboard that has been in at least version 12 and 13.

I'm on 12 and you select > click on the move icon > click your selection again and you can move it with the arrow keys.

I didn't try the command button. BRB.

Command makes it mad and it crashes. Method above works here.

Ahhhh nevermind. I never use the move tool. If you select something with the inspector tool you can move the object by holding down the COMMAND key and using either your mouse or the keyboard arrow keys which is the way I move most things. With the actual move tool you do not have to hold the COMMAND key down. Sorry for the confusion. I'll wake up eventually.

That was all good info, I don't know what's wrong with me :laugh:
selecting again after selecting the move tool works-sheesh, I don't remember
having to select again.

But I like Command, inspector tool move even better!

Thanks guys!
