[00:00:00.0]
OK, here's a little slide show that I created. You see it has: 'welcome to our pet show',
[00:00:06.0]
'the winners are' - and it shows 3 items and some bullets.
[00:00:11.0]
I'm going to open up the Inspector. And what I'm going to do is
[00:00:17.0]
select the text and double click the color well, choose crayon.
[00:00:24.0]
As of right now, the color really isn't changing, and there's a reason for this.
[00:00:30.0]
Let's go back one more time, click the color well again, and now change the colors.
[00:00:36.0]
You have to make sure that your text is completely selected.
[00:00:42.0]
Select the text, make sure you completely select it, and choose one of the color crayons, and you get some different colors.
[00:00:52.0]
Now, we're going to close the Inspector out and go to our font.
[00:00:57.0]
Now, what we're going to do is change the font to something a little more fancier.
[00:01:03.0]
The word 'the winner' will have Caslon. And for the title 'welcome to our pet show',
[00:01:15.0]
we'll also have same font. And we close the font out.
[00:01:24.0]
We're going to open up the image library, and you choose the file, the Keynote file which is a library.
[00:01:34.0]
And a slideshow will open up, but each slide will be an image.
[00:01:39.0]
As you can see I'm going to scroll up here and pick an image of a globe.
[00:01:43.0]
Double click that slide, click on the globe. And do Edit>copy. Let me move this out of the way for now.
[00:01:58.0]
Go back to my document, click in an clickable area such as a text box, and paste.
[00:02:07.0]
The globe becomes imported, but it's up to you to choose one of those handlebars,
[00:02:14.0]
or those points, and scale down your globe, and position your globe in the middle. And the guides will help you along
[00:02:22.0]
And if you really want absolute positioning,
[00:02:25.0]
I highly suggest using the arrow keys on your keyboard to nudge the graphic into place.
[00:02:32.0]
There are other ways to align things.
[00:02:35.0]
We're going to create a text box, and you see it's right on top of my globe.
[00:02:40.0]
So what we'll do is move this over, and you see a guide comes out.
[00:02:44.0]
We'll select the text, and type 'the world', enter, 'will be there!'
[00:02:50.0]
You've got to click on the edge of the text box slowly and carefully,
[00:02:55.0]
and you can use the arrow keys to nudge your text box up and over.
[00:03:01.0]
If you want to get technical, you can take it a step further.
[00:03:05.0]
I'll just nudge this up a little bit more.
[00:03:08.0]
You can drag a guide from your ruler,
[00:03:12.0]
click and pull down a guide from the ruler, and you can use the guide to align your objects correctly.
[00:03:22.0]
And that'll help the absolute positioning.
[00:03:24.0]
[00:03:27.0]
d that'll help the absolute positioning.
[00:03:24.0]
