Best way to create attractive subtitles

I'm not talking about closed captioning, but rather, attractive burned in subtitles in Premiere.  I need the ability to quickly change the style of all titles at once (e.g. font, color, size), so I think that rules out the title tool.
I followed one suggestion to create them in Photoshop, with each phrase its own layer.  This way I might have 1000 or more layers.  But when I import the PSD as layers to Premiere, they are arranged alphabetically, and I don't see any easy way to arrange them in the right order.  If I import the PSD as a sequence, the titles are stacked in the right order, but I can't think of any way to move them all to one track in order.  Any ideas?

Link to Steven's solution?
Jim, in Photoshop it's very easy, you just select all layers and change the font and color in the formatting bar.  Then all the titles should refresh automatically in Premiere.  I agree that we need a built-in tool though, and I've already submitted a feature request.
Ann, numbering the layers would work, but I think any time you change the text it resets the layer name.  I wonder if it's possible to write a script that automatically prepends layer numbers to the layer names.  Are layers even numbered in Photoshop?
No one has a solution to convert a stacked timeline like this to sequential clips?

  • What is the best way to create a SSRS 2005 Line Chart Report for a 12 month period?

    I'm looking for advice on how to create a SQL Server 2005 query and line chart report for SSRS 2005.
    I need to display the peak number of patients assigned to a medical practice each month for a 12 month period based on the end-user selecting a
    single month and year.
    I've previously created a report that displays all patients assigned to the practice for any single month but I’m looking for advice on how to
    how to produce a resultset that shows the peak number of patients each month for a 12 month period. I thought about creating a query that returns the peak count for each month (based on my previously created report which displays all patients assigned to the
    practice for any single month) and then use a UNION statement to join all 12 months but I'm sure that isn't the most efficient way to do this. The other challenge with this approach (twelve resultsets combined via a UNION) is that the end-user needs to be
    able to select any month and year for the parameter and the report needs to display the 12 month period based on the month selected (the month selected would be the last month of the 12 month period).
    For the report I’ve previously created that displays all patients assigned to the practice for any single month, the WHERE statement filters the
    resultset on two fields:
    Start Date - The date the patient was assigned to the practice. This field is never null or blank.
    End Date - The date the patient left the practice. This field can be null or blank as active patients assigned to the practice do not have an End Date. When the patient
    leaves the practice, the date the patient left is populated in this field.
    Using these two fields I can return all patients assigned to the practice during Nov 2012 by looking for patients that meet the following criteria:
    start date prior to 11/30/2012 (using the last day of the month selected ensures patients added mid-month would be included)
    AND
    end date is null or blank (indicates the patient is active) OR the end date is between 11/1/2012 -11/30/2012 (returns patients that leave during the month
    selected)
    Regarding the query I need to create for the report that displays the peak count each month for 12 months, I'm looking for advice on
    how to count patients for each month the patient is assigned to the practice if the patient has been assigned for several months (which applies to most patients). Examples are:
    John Doe has a start date of 6/01/2012 and an End Date of 10/07/2012
    Sally Doe has a start date of 8/4/2012 and no End Date (the patient is still active)
    Jimmy Doe has a  start of 7/3/2012 and an End Date of 9/2/2012
    Given these examples how would I include John Doe in the peak monthly count each month for May - October, Sally Doe in the peak monthly count for
    August - December and Jimmy Doe in the peak monthly count for July – Sept if the end-user running the report selected December 2012 as the parameter?
    Given the example above and the fact I'm creating a line chart I think the best way to create this report would be a resultset that looks like
    this:
    Patient Name              
    Months Assigned
    John Doe
    June 2012
    John Doe                     
    July012
    John Doe                     
    Aug 2012
    John Doe                     
    Sept 2012
    John Doe
    Oct 2012
    Sally Doe                     
    Aug 2012
    Sally Doe                     
    Sept 2012
    Sally Doe
    Oct 2012
    Sally Doe                     
    Nov 2012
    Sally Doe
    Dec 2012
    Jimmy Doe                  
    July 2012
    Jimmy Doe
    Aug 2012
    Jimmy Doe
    Sept 2012
    From the resultset above I could create another resultset that would count\group on month and year to return the peak count for each month:
    June 2012 - 1
    July 2012 – 2
    Aug 2012 - 3
    Sept 2012 - 3
    Oct 2012 - 2
    Nov 2012 - 1
    Dec 2012 - 1
    The resultset that displays the peak count for each month would be used to create the line chart (month would be the X axis and the count would
    be the y axis).
    Does this sound like the best approach?
    If so, any advice on how to create the resultset that lists each patient and each month they were assigned to the practice would be greatly appreciated.
    I do not have permissions to create SPs or Functions within the database but I can create temp tables.
    I know how to create the peak monthly count query (derived from the query that lists each patient and month assigned) as well as the line chart.
    Any advice or help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the replies. I reviewed them shortly after they were submitted but I'm also working on other projects at the same time (hence the delayed reply).
    Building a time table and doing a cross join to my original resultset gave me the desired resultset of the months assigned between dates. What I can't figure out now is how to filter months I don't want. 
    Doing a cross  join between my original resultset that had two dates:
    08/27/2010
    10/24/2011
    and a calendar table that has 24 rows (each month for a two year period)
    my new resultset looks like this:
    I need to filter the rows in yellow as the months assigned for stage 3 that started on 8/27/2010 should stop when the patient was assigned to stage 4 on 10/24/2011.
    You'll notice that Jan - Sept 2011 isn't listed for Stage 4 assigned on 10/24/2011 as I included a filter in the WHERE clause that states
    the Months Assigned value must be greater than or equal to the date assigned value.
    Any advice would be appreciated.

  • Best way to create tasks and assign to sharepoint groups

    Hi everyone, I have a custom list which contains newsletter info that is to be seen by around 400 groups (they are stores) and then I need them to mark each list item as 'completed'
    I have been trying to figure out the best way to do this and decided to keep the custom list and somehow link it to a task for each item in the list. We have nintex so was thinking of creating a workflow to create a separate task for each group (store) so
    they can mark it as completed.
    Is this the best way to go about it or am I completely off track?
    Basically all I need is a list which contains around 30 items and around 400 groups (stores) which contain users (store staff) to be able to mark items on the list as completed so it recognises that each store has completed each task.
    Thanks

    Hi  ,
    According to your description, you want to find the best way for creating tasks for 30 list items and assigning the task to around 400 groups.
    For the workflow, it is heavy  that  you need to create around 12000 (30*400) tasks .  In my opinion, the best way is to do with a custom timer job. For more information, you can refer to the
    blog:

  • Best way to create pop-up menu's

    Hi All,
    I have been having a heck of a time doing something that i
    would have assumed to be relatively simple - specifically creating
    a pup-up menu.
    My first set of approach was to dynamically create a movie
    clip on a button rollover, and within that movieclip create several
    other movie clips that i then assigned actions too. The problem was
    that since i applied a action on "rollout" on the initial movie
    clip, it became a button, and as such all of the sub
    movieclips/buttons became in active (any click was only detected on
    the parent).
    My second set of attempts have been around the MenuComponent
    (see other posts), but here too i have hit problems, initially with
    animation and depth. I solved the animation issue, but the depth
    problem remains.
    Now, i see pop-up menu's everywhere, so i assume that this is
    a relatively simple problem - so what am i missing. A google search
    showed up lots of examples of how to do using menu that are created
    in the UI (rather than purely in AS), using purchased components.
    The first case is not an option since i need to create it fully
    dynamically, the second would be an option - however i typically
    need a far greater level of visual control than off the shelf
    components provide (hence i have needed to build up my own class
    library for many common tasks).
    So after all that, i have a simple question.
    "What is the best way to create a dynamic popup menu in
    AS2?"
    Regards
    Neil

    I guess you want to make your own popup menu, if I understand
    correctly. Nothing simpler, your first attempt was in the right
    direction, you just don't assign button actions to the parent clip,
    because you won't get the child clips to work, but add another
    child at the lowest level inside the parent, that acts as a
    "background" clip/button.
    And for the rollout for the entire popup, you can add a
    transparent clip just under the popup (which is at the currently
    topmost depth) covering the entire stage, give it rollover that
    acts as your rollout, and make it not use the hand currsor, so you
    can't tell it's there.
    That's how I do it, anyways..

  • WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO CREATE AN XSD FILE (TO BE USED BY SOAP ADAPTER)

    Dear friends
    I have a simple scenario.
    OUTBOUND DATA  -->  SOAP ADAPTER  --> ( XI )  -->  RFC ADAPTER  --> INBOUND DATA
    The XML file that I got from mapping area of IR (Design) is as follows
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <ns0:MT_NAME_SOURCE xmlns:ns0="http://test3.com">
       <FIRSTNAME>DAVE</FIRSTNAME>
       <LASTNAME>SMITH</LASTNAME>
    </ns0:MT_NAME_SOURCE>
    If you notice, there are only 2 fields.
    I need to create an XSD file and import it as an external object, which I can use for SOAP Adapter.
    Which is the best way to create it.
    Also, I need to know if there is any step by step of sending a message from XML SPY. I have downloaded this software, but am not able to undertand how to use this.
    Hope to hear from any experts on this forum.
    Thanks in advance

  • What is the best way to create business documents in CRM

    Hi All,
    What is the best way to create business documents like contract, sales order, debit memo etc in CRM ? Unlike R3 we can't use our good old BDC with recording. Moreover for most of them although there are Business Object but no BAPI to creation so what is the way ? I found in SDN there are two MAGIC Function module CRMXIF_ORDER_SAVE. Do I need to that alawys ?
    Is it nees to via IDoc and cannot be done just by calling from ABAP program ? The input parameter of the FM is a complex deep structure.
    Please help.

    Ashim,
    Try looking at the program:
    CRM_TEST_ORDER_MAINTAIN
    I think that should help you figure out the parameters.
    Good luck,

  • Best way to create slide show with last photo having links

    What are some of the best ways to create a slide show (more like a season greeting flash) with the last photo having links and buttons for the viewer to click?
    I already have the code for the slide show. What I need now is how do I reference or point to a keyframe that contains the last slide as the background with buttons and hyperlinks? Perhaps, I also need a way to not showing this slide until the last? How do I do that? This last slide with buttons and links are on it's own layer.
    The other route would be to create the buttons and hyperlinks in the AS3 code instead of design time. If so, how do I do on the last slide?

    What is the best way to create a database schema from XML?
    i have  a complex XML file that I want to create a database from and consistently import new XML files of the same schema type. Currently I have started off by mapping the XSD into Excel and using Mysql for Excel to push into MySQL.

    Hi Saythj,
    When mentioning "a database schema from XML", do you mean the
    XML Schema Collections? If that is what you mean, when trying to import XML files of the same schema type, you may take the below approach.
    Create an XML Schema Collection basing on your complex XML, you can find
    many generating tools online to do that.
    Create a Table with the above created schema typed XML column as below.
    CREATE TABLE youTable( Col1 int, Col2 xml (yourXMLSchemaCollection))
    Load your XML files and try to insert the xml content into the table above from C# or some other approaches. The XMLs that can't pass the validation fail inserting into that table.
    If you have any question, feel free to let me know.

Can anybody suggest me best performance system configuration. Where to create variable?(Host PC or at  individual PXI system).

    Dear Ravens,
    I want to control real-time application from host(Command from GUI PC to PXI).Host PC should have access to all 16 sets PXI's variable. During communication failure with PXI, Host will stop data display for particular station.

    Either.  For the best performance, you need to determine what that means.  Is it more important for each PXI machine to have access to the shared variable, or for the host PC to have access to all 16 sets of variables?  If you have slowdown or issue with the network communication, what kinds of problems would it cause for each machine?
    You want to located the shared variable library on whatever machine is more critical.  That is probably each PXI machine, but only you know your application.

  • What is the best way to create Aperture book from Pages '09 document?

    What is the best way to create Aperture book from Pages '09 document?

    There is no way to import pages documents to Aperture and convert them to an Aperture book. Aperture books can only be created by manually adding images and text to the pages of a book, and using the layout of the predefined templates.
    The best you could do, would be to print your pages document to pdf and import the resulting pdf file into Aperture as a new project. This will create one image for each page. Then select the page images all at once and  create a new book. Select a theme with fullsize page images, like "picture Book", and then add the images of the pages to the empty pages of the book.
    But probably would you get a much better quality and layout, when you recreate your pages document in Aperture, by starting with an empty book and copying and pasting the text from your Pages document. But don't paste the photos from the document - try to use the originals of those photos.
