How do you make Keynote slides fill a screen?

You can read the details here. But the answer is below. Thanks Edward Escobar!

The first thing you can try doing is clicking “Scale slides up to fit display” option in the slideshow preferences.

From the top menu:  Keynote > Preferences > Slideshow

It’s the first option in the window.

Another thing you can do is set the size of the slide to the resolution of your screen.  When you create a new slideshow, from the template window at the bottom right corner, there is a dropdown menu that allows you to set the slide size.  You can choose of the sizes already listed, or customize your own.

You can find your screen resolution in: System preferences > Displays

jlbunting solved the issue:

I was the one who first started this thread. I want to report, I figured out how to get WebDav working on Pages. All I had to do was upgrade to 4.2 and install Pages 1.3. This fixed the WebDav certificate issues I was having. Now I can login and import/export to WebDav. I can access the folder on my computer and it works perfect. I am using Bluehost and Webdisk for the WebDav.

Kayak may be able to help you.  ”After a fruitless search online and in Keynote Help (and just when I was on the verge of upgrading MS Office) I did learn how to spell check in foreign languages in Keynote. This works through the following Keynote menu selections:

Edit/Spelling/Spelling then click the tab at the bottom of the window to select your spell check language.

Thanks to Sara at Apple Tech Support!”

Keynote cannot play slideshow…

Turns out that you might have been accidentaly recording the entire time!  R-steveo to the rescue. “Littlequi,

I just had the same thing happen to me. Here is what I believe is happening– somehow you hit the command to record the slideshow, and you have been recording ever since. So under the File menu, choose “Clear Recording” and see if things don’t go back to normal. Just spent an hour trying to figure this out!”

Keynote workaround for how to change the color (or fill) of a SINGLE bar in a bar chart series

This is a very clever work around.  Thanks Tulse! “It is unfortunately impossible — the individual bars are not selectable. As a workaround you can a) overlay them with a rectangular object, or b) overlay them with a second chart identical to the first, with all the bars except the two set to zero.”
