How do i set up to use the spacebar to navigate within an image while using another tool

when using a tool (such as eraser, clone etc.) i used to be able to navigate within an image by using the spacebar. for some reason, this option is not working any longer and i'd like to know how to set it up again.

You don't need the background image -- you supply THAT in FCPX. Just work the text effect and publish it.

  • How do I set a variable on the main timeline from within a symbol?

    Just getting started with Animate and coming to it from Flash, as may be apparent from my question. How do you set a variable to the main timeline from within a symbol?
    I have 24 pairs of clickable elements, each in their own symbols, and all 24 of those symbols sit inside another symbol. I want all 24 to be able to set the same global variable when clicked. I can't find that this question is addressed anywhere, which makes me think I may be stuck in a Flash mindset and approaching the task in the wrong way. (There are however MANY discussions of how to address objects at different levels in the hierarchy. That's well covered.)
    Relatedly, how do you access a function on the main timeline from within a symbol?
    Adobe should consider putting together a support page (or pages) just for folks migrating form Flash. In the materials I've encountered so far there seems to be a studied effort to refrain from mentioning Flash in any way. I imagine there are a lot of people out there like me who have a deep background in Flash coding, but are just getting started with Animate. We don't need help with most of the basic concepts, but we may still have some pretty basic questions about how to accomplish some things in Animate because our Flash knowledge is getting in the way.

    Hi Bill,
    There are plenty of threads on here about scope, but here's one way to create a global variable:
    // code on Stage.compositionReady
    sym.myGlobalVar = 1;
    Then, anywhere in your project, you can check/set that var like so:
    sym.getComposition().getStage().myGlobalVar = 2;
    And here's one way to create a global function:
    // code on Stage.compositionReady
    sym.myGlobalFunction = function(){
              console.log('myGlobalFunction');
    Then, anywhere in your project, you can call that function like so:
    sym.getComposition().getStage().myGlobalFunction();

  • How do I use the built-in microphone on my iMac while using Windows XP?

    My iMac has a built-in microphone. My computer is set up with a partition to run either mac or windows. I would like to use the built-in microphone feature when I am using Windows XP. Is there any way that I can do this?

    Hi and welcome to Discussions,
    assuming you have installed the neccessary BootCamp Drivers from the OSX Leopard DVD the internal mic is useable with any kind of recording software.
    Windows itself has a rather rudimentary Audiorecorder program built-in.
    For a more sophisticated recording program have a look at Audacity http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

  • HT1758 Can i connect my non apple laptop to my iMac and use the iMac as an extra/dual screen while using my laptop?

    Got a new laptop from work, no choice on the type, but want to plug it's docking station into my iMac so I can use dual screens while using the laptop. Can I use the Ethernet port for this?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Target Display mode only supports Late 2009 and Mid 2010 27-inch iMacs, and Mid 2011 and newer iMacs to use them as external displays, but it only works over Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt, not Ethernet.
    Your PC needs Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt (depending on your iMac) to be able to use your iMac as an external display, so it is probably that you cannot use the iMac as an external display. Instead, look for information in the Internet about VNC viewers that allow you to do that

    I found a post from Alope that told me exactly how to fix it.

  • How do I set a reminder for the last day of every month

    Have I missed something? But how do you set a reminder for the last day of every month to recurr indefinatley in iOS6? Sorry if this is really simple but I just can't seem to work it out. Any help gratefully received.

    Hey Mattye88 not sure if you have seen but actully you can do this, but for some reason you have to use Siri.  If you bring up Siri and say "set a reminder ever 4 weeks from next wednesday to check the gas meter" it will set one and it will work just fine, I have reminders to water a Bonsai every three days and it works fine it just shows as custom repeat on the user interface.  Alas it seems you can not use Siri to set one for the end of the month though which is why I am in this threed.  Still hope it helps you to know how to sort this problem atleast.

  • How do I set Preview to be the PDF defult reader?

    How do I set Preview to be the PDF defult reader?

    Thanks T P I got this from your search:  http://osxdaily.com/2011/10/31/set-default-pdf-viewer-mac-os-x/
    for others here is the answer.
    If you’ve downloaded Adobe Acrobat on the Mac you’ve probably discovered that it takes overPreview as the default PDF viewer in OS X, which is annoying because Acrobat is slow to load and a fairly bloated application. There’s little need to use Acrobat Reader as the way to view PDF files, so here’s how to change it back to Preview.
    Change the Default PDF Viewer in Mac OS X
    From the Mac OS X desktop, find a PDF file and hit Command+i to “Get Info” on the file
    Click on the arrow next to “Open with:” to expand and access the default application list
    Click the pull-down menu and choose “Preview” from the list, or if it’s not visible, navigate to it by choosing “Other”
    With Preview.app selected, click on the “Change All” button
    This will restore the leaner and very capable Preview app as the default PDF viewer in OS X and prevent the lengthy launch of Acrobat anytime a PDF is opened. This tip will be of less use if you need the full functioned Acrobat version, but for the average person just looking to quickly open pdf docs this can be a significant time saver.
    If you want a quick PDF file to use for this tip, you can grab the Apple history book “The Macintosh Way” for free (direct PDF link).

    Why Apple can't undo its mistake?
    Whose mistake? The source of the problem:
    I was required to enter my recovery key. Now, there begins that huge flaw. I've forgotten it (I know it was my responsibility to remember it).
    If you had just taken the simple steps of storing your recovery key as Apple tells you to when you set it up, none of this would've happened.
    As it clearly states in the FAQ on 2-step verification: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570
    After you turn it on, there will be no way for anyone to access and manage your account at My Apple ID other than by using your password, verification codes sent your trusted devices, or your Recovery Key. You must be responsible for:
    Remembering your password.
    Keeping your trusted devices physically secure.
    Keeping your Recovery Key in a safe place.
    If you lose access to two of these three items at the same time, you could be locked out of your Apple ID account permanently.
    In addition, with two-step verification turned on, only you can reset your password, manage your trusted devices, or create a new recovery key.
    Apple Support can help you with other aspects of your service, but they will not be able to update or recover these three things on your behalf.
    If you aren't responsible enough to do that, you should not have turned the optional security feature on.
    This is your fault, not Apple's.

  • How do I set a limit to the number of registrants to an event form?

    How do I set a limit to the number of registrants filling out an event form?

    PLEASE add this feature. as far as I can tell there are no option out there that serve this need. FormAssembly, EmailMeForm, or FormsCentral. Think of how many customers would use this. Imagine a t-shirt company that pre-prints inventory, wouldn't they want to limit how many forms could be submitted that want a size L shirt? My business is participant based, like the evnt question above we need to limit the number of participants. Of course I could program my own solution, but then I would miss out on all the other cool FormsCentral features. Any chance this could be added right away if I sponsored it as a custom development?

  • HT5621 Hi I'm using my wife's email for my apple Id but now she has got an iPhone we r both using the same one ive tried gettin my own using my own email but it keeps telling me my email is already in use how can that be????

    Hi I'm using my wife's email for my apple Id but now she has got an iPhone we r both using the same one ive tried gettin my own using my own email but it keeps telling me my email is already in use how can that be????

    Are you trying to set up your own iDevice and that is why you want your own Apple ID?
    Do you realize that any content that you have already purchased using her ID will still have to be used if you want to update apps or download purchases again for free? ITunes and App Store content is tied to the ID used to make the purchase. Furthermore, if you use her ID to download a purchased app for free on your own device, you can lock yourself out of your ID for 90 days.
    Back to the question at hand .... Did she use your email address as the rescue email address for her Apple ID?

  • I have a macbook pro4.1 and the sound chip in it failed. My speakers and microphone no longer work. Does anyone know of an external speaker and microphone set that plugs into the USB port so I can continue to use both of these functions?

    I have a macbook pro4.1 and the sound chip in it failed. My speakers and microphone no longer work. Does anyone know of an external speaker and microphone set that plugs into the USB port so I can continue to use both of these functions and not have to pay to have the entire main board replaced. Preferably something under $100.

    I don't think you're likely to find a set of external speakers that come with a microphone and plug directly into a USB port. There are USB audio cards that look like tiny flash drives but have microphone and headphone ports in them, to which you can connect a typical two-plug Windows PC headset with a microphone, or else you can connect external speakers and a stand-alone microphone. Those adapters typically cost under $10. I don't know anything about the quality of sound that can be expected from them.
    I have a Griffin iMic, which is much the same idea but larger, a bit more expensive (retail~$40), and perhaps delivers somewhat better sound quality (I hope so, but I don't know because I've never had occasion to try one of the little ones).
