Adding Multiple Titles
Does anyone know if more than one title can be added to a frame in imovie? I'd like to bring them in at different times and use different fonts.
Thanks for any help!

To remove a title, select the title clip in the timeline (click on it) and hit the Delete key.
If the title is a title-over-black, that deletes the title clip from the timeline.
If the title is a title-over-video, that removes the text of the title from the video clip. iMovie also restores the video clip to the length it was before you added the title. (Adding a title to a video clip normally splits the clip into two parts. Removing the title re-joins those parts.)

Adding multiple titles using keyboard?
I'm analysing videos in 30fps, classifying behaviour into four categories. Each category is only 1-5 frames long, so its taking forever, dragging and adjusting titles using the mouse. Can't find any information on using the keyboard instead? The only one I found is ctrl+T for making a new title

Problem adding multiple titles
I have a long video clip in my project I'm trying add several titles to at certain points. When I drag the first title in, the duration of the title is over 12 minutes long. I scale it down to the 10 seconds I want it to be and that works fine. However, when I try to add a second title just a few seconds later in the clip, it won't let me. It only lets me add a new title after the original 12 minute mark that the first title originally spanned to. How do I get it to let me add title wherever I want? Any ideas? Thanks.
I realize that your question was answered, but I thought I would take a second to explain the rule of thirds that iMovie uses with titles and superimposed photos. (For those who haven't tried it yet, you can actually drop a photo over a clip so that it behaves like a title.)
Basically, iMovie uses a rule of thirds to add a title in one of three ways:
* If you drop your title over the first third of a clip, iMovie will span the title to cover the first third of the clip.
* If you drop a title over the last third of a clip, iMovie will span the title to cover the last third of the clip.
* If you drop a title over the middle of a clip, iMovie will span the title over the entire clip.
The other rule is that iMovie won't apply a clip where another clip already exists.
This means if you:
a) have a title over any part of a clip, you
b) can't drop a new title in the middle of the clip because
c) iMovie uses the drop in the middle to span a title over the entire clip.
iMovie won't let this happen because it would result in the new title cover the old one, something iMovie won't do. The same applies if you have a title in the first third of a clip and try to drop a new title in the first third or the middle of the clip. In this case you can drop it into the last third of the clip and then move it around.
I realize this isn't the clearest explanation, but it's a bugger of a concept to explain. -
Place multiple titles on a single clip and then manually place them?
Hi all,
Is it possible to place multiple titles on the same clip in iMovie 09?
I would also like to manually place those titles to where I want them to be on the frame.
I know it's possible to "trick" iMovie by adding a title to a clip, exporting it, and then importing it again to add another title but this seems to degrade the quality of the video.
Thanks very much!

I guess, that kills iMs built in title features.
so, Plan B)
export a still form your project (=just as reference for following procedure)
use any pic processor (Photoshop Elements/Pixelmator/..) which allows 'layers'.
use exported still as background
add as many titles where you want .. (keep in mind, video! no small fonts, no serifs, no too bright colors...)
replace background layer by pure Green
export as jpeg
import to iMovie, use Greenbox effect to add video. -
ITunes 9.2 stops adding multiple artwork in multiple selection mode. Help?
Hi everybody,
Since 2003 I've been using iTunes and adding multiple artwork in several tracks at once.
Lets say: I added 10 tracks of a CD to iTunes library, then selected all of them and then right click to choose "Get Info > Multiple Item Information". Then I just dragged and dropped as many artwork pieces as I wanted onto the artwork window, one by one. Clicked OK and voilá.
Now it will only accept one artwork. Following the procedure I used to do, now it will only take the last artwork I place onto the artwork window.
Now the only way to get multiple artwork in a CD is adding all the artwork (lets say the 20 pages of the booklet) one by one in "each track" separately!, which is a pain in the neck.
So now I have to add artwork one by one to each track one at a time.
Is there a NEW way to add multiple artwork on multiple tracks at once in iTunes 9.2?
Screen shot: http://grab.by/51UT
Thank you for your help.Hi- you might've already figured this out on your own, but:
A) add the first artwork picture (what you want for your cover artwork) using "Get Info > Multiple Item Information" - and close the Multiple Item Information window
B) with the multiple tracks still selected, drag your additional artwork picture items into the artwork panel in the lower left corner of the iTunes window (this is the artwork panel titled "selected item").
C) your additional artwork will be added to all of the selected items. You can click through the artworks using the left/right arrows above the artwork panel.
Obviously you can also use this same method to add that same additional artwork to any other tracks, from other albums, etc. simply by selecting them as well.
Side note, the easiest way to select all tracks from a single album: select the starting track, then use ctrl-shift and select the ending track- all tracks between those two will be selected.
Aaaaaand you're done! Hope this helps! -
Multiple titles on a lengthy clip?
I have a ~13 minute clip, and I want to add several titles throughout it. I added the first one successfully, but when I go to drag a second title to my clip, it zips right back to the titles box, seeming to tell me that only one title can be used per clip. How can I use multiple titles in this clip?
I have posted a solution for a similar issue with overlaying photos over a clip, and it should work for titles, too.

How can I save multiple titles under the same DVD?
I use HandBrake to rip DVD's into iTunes. How can I save multiple titles under the same DVD? For instance, I have a Jimi Hendrix documentary that comes with special features, such as concert performances. I would like to have the main feature and the special features saved in my iTunes under the same title, perhaps as different 'tracks' (kind of like how different songs can be saved under the same album).
Is there a way for me to do this, or am I chasing phantoms?*This response is for iPhoto 11 (v9). If you're using an earlier version, please post back and let us know. Troubleshooting steps are not the same for different versions. To find out which iPhoto you have: iPhoto Menu -> About iPhoto)*
Duplicate the photo first. (Photos -> Duplicate). This means that you will have multiple copies of the master as well as the edited version.
If you use versions like this often and wish to have only one master then you can do this with Aperture.

Adding multiple same-name nodes from one xml into another
Hi,
Following on from my question the other day (Adding multiple different nodes from one xmltype into another), I now have a slightly more complex requirement that I cannot work out where to start, assuming that it's something that can reuse some/all of yesterday's work (thanks again, odie_63!). ETA: I'm on 11.2.0.3
So, here's the (slightly amended) xml along with yesterday's solution:
with sample_data as (select xmltype('<root>
<xmlnode>
<subnode1>val1</subnode1>
<subnode2>val2</subnode2>
</xmlnode>
<xmlnode>
<subnode1>val3</subnode1>
<subnode2>val4</subnode2>
</xmlnode>
</root>') xml_to_update,
xmltype('<a>
<b>valb</b>
<c>valc</c>
<d>
<d1>vald1</d1>
<d2>vald2</d2>
</d>
<e>vale</e>
<f>valf</f>
<g>
<g1>valg1</g1>
<g2>valg2</g2>
</g>
<h>
<h1>valh1</h1>
<h2>valh2</h2>
</h>
<multinode>
<name>fred</name>
<type>book</type>
<head>1</head>
</multinode>
<multinode>
<name>bob</name>
<type>car</type>
<head>0</head>
</multinode>
</a>') xml_to_extract_from

insert node element extrainfo {
$new/a/b

, $new/a/f

} as first into $d/root
return $d'
passing sd.xml_to_update as "old"
, sd.xml_to_extract_from as "new"
returning content
indent
from sample_data sd;
That gives me:
<root>
<extrainfo>
<b>valb</b>
<d>
<d1>vald1</d1>
<d2>vald2</d2>
</d>
<f>valf</f>
<h>

<h2>valh2</h2>
</h>
</extrainfo>
<xmlnode>
<subnode1>val1</subnode1>
<subnode2>val2</subnode2>
</xmlnode>
<xmlnode>
<subnode1>val3</subnode1>
<subnode2>val4</subnode2>
</xmlnode>
</root>
However, I now need to add in a set of new nodes based on information from the <multinode> nodes, something like:
<root>
<extrainfo>
<b>valb</b>
<d>
<d1>vald1</d1>
<d2>vald2</d2>
</d>
<f>valf</f>
<h>

</h>
<newnode>

<newnode>
<name>bob</name>
<type>car</type>
</newnode>
</extrainfo>
<xmlnode>
<subnode1>val1</subnode1>
<subnode2>val2</subnode2>
<type>book</type>
</xmlnode>
<xmlnode>
<subnode1>val3</subnode1>
<subnode2>val4</subnode2>
<type>car</type>
</xmlnode>
</root>
If it's easier, I *think* we would be ok with something like:
<newnode>
<type name="fred">book</type>
<type name="bob">car</type>
</newnode>
The closest I've come is:

<subnode2>val2</subnode2>

So we're going with the second method, but I've discovered that the "$i/name" node is not always present. When that happens, I would like to use a default value (for example, "george"). I promise I've searched and searched, but I'm completely failing to turn up anything that sounds remotely like what I'm after (seriously, I can't believe my google-fu sucks this badly!).
Is there a simple way of doing it? The only thing that I've found that looks vaguely relevant is "declare default namespace...." but I'm not sure that that's the correct thing to use, or if it is, how I'm supposed to reference it when populating the attribute value. -
Adding multiple e-mail alias addresses to an account
Can someone please tell me how to add another e-mail address to my Mail account. I have tried using info from the Mail Help file, both "adding another account" and "adding multiple e-mail alias addresses to an account". Each time when I try to send a test message to or from the added e-mail address, I get the same message: "Cannot send message using the server mail.bellsouth.net. Use the Pop-up menu below to try a different outgoing mail server". The only pop-up is smtp .Mac.
I have tried both methods shown in the HELP file and get the same message. I would really appreciate your help.Are you trying to add a second email account to Mail, or just add a second "(apparently) from" address to an existing account?
If the former, we need to know some more detail, like:
(1) who is the existing account, .mac or bellsouth?
(2) Which are you trying to add, .mac or bellsouth?
(3) I assume your ISP is Bell South?
(4) What are the names of the smtp servers and what are their respective smtp server port numbers?
(5) Are either of them using SSL on the smtp server?
(6) I don't remember whether Tiger Mail has it or not, but in Leopard Mail, on the menu bar under "Window" there is a selection "Connection Doctor." If applicable to Tiger Mail, what does it say about your connections?
(7) Which account can you send mail through and which one can't you send mail through?
(8) Are your receiving mail okay through either or both accounts? Which one(s)?
Now if you are trying to add a second "(apparently) from" address to an existing account, in Mail Prefs > Accounts > mail account > Email Address, just add a second email address separated by a comma like so:
[email protected], [email protected]
You could have an issue with bellsouth or .mac requiring the domain name in the apparently from email address to match the domain name of the smtp mail server. -
How can I change the font to multiple titles at the same time?
Hey guys, quick question. I have a bunch of titles and lower thirds in my project and my producer decided that he didn't like the font we were previously using and wants to change it to a new one. He seems to do that pretty often. Is there a way to "globally" change the font to multiple title cards at the same time instead of clicking on each one separately and doing it manually for each one? And if there is no way to do that does anyone have any ideas on how to make it easier?
If you have any idea of design and fonts you would understand that "Title Cards" are not "exactly the same" if you change the font... because all fonts are not equal! Lower thirds are probably even more restrictive because they have design elements in them.
If you work with "change their mind producers"...the deal that goes with that is suck up their changes. (on a salary or otherwise)
I was just saying there is no way without scripting ..to change a title ( graphic) en masse ( in Premiere) and get it working because of font differences. -
How can I align multiple titles in Premiere Pro?
We are working on a video (obviously) and we have a bullet list that we'd like to come up as the speaker is naming off specific items. So far we have created a separate title for each bullet point, so that we can control when the bullets fade in. The issue we're having is that we have to eyeball the alignment right now and it's not always accurate. So i'm looking for some help. How can I select multiple titles in the timeline and right align them - OR - is there a way to have all of these bullet points in one title and still maintain control of when they fade in and out?
This technique will only work with current versions of PPro - it looks harder to do than it actually is:
Create the title with all the bullet points, aligned as you wish, in the Title Tool.
Exit the title tool, the title you just created will appear in your project.
Click on the title to select it (if it is not already selected) and then go to the menu Edit > Duplicate.
Repeat the duplication process to make as many copies as number of bullet points you want to transition on.
Place the first copy of the title where you want the Title to appear in your video.
Double click on the clip of the title on the timeline to re-open the Title Tool. Delete all the text except the first line.
Now place the second copy where you want it to appear in the video.
Double click on it to re-enter the Title Tool, and delete all the text except the first two lines.
Repeat this process for as many bullet points as you have, delating one fewer bullet point each time. You can add transitions at the cut points between the titles (such as a dissolve) to make the next bullet point appear as you wish.
If you try to to this using an early version of PPro this will not work as the titles and its copies are linked - so if you change one of the copies, it changes all the other titles. Fortunately this has been fixed in the current version.

Change text size in multiple titles
To me, iMovie's most glaring weaknesses seem to fall under its text handling abilities, despite all the glitzy swoopy things you can do.
I have several screens of rolling titles in a project and last night I decided to change the text size. It's impossible! No, you can change it, but how do you get them all the same size when iMovie doesn't give you any exact type sizes, just that stupid slider? The only way I've been able to do it so far is trial and error, and it's faster to simply recreate the titles than do that, there's so much error involved.
So I thought maybe there's a way of applying a style to multiple titles...is there?
Thanks.I can't speak for the old iMovie 4, but it works on iMovie 6 is you shift-select all the ones you want to change, and then apply the change.
I tried all the multiple selection things I could think of, but the problem is that iMovie 4, when you select a title, also selects the text. So even if you could apply a change to all the title clips, you would be applying the same text to each one - not gtreat. But so far I haven't been able to effect changes to multiple titles this way so they must have changed it in the later version.
What with the new bug I discovered yesterday (the audio track and the video track's visual sync is off after seven minutes, even though the two are in sync to the ear - in this case, they are FOUR friggin' seconds off! The visual representation of the audio track is ahead of where the sound is at that point even though the audio and video tracks end at the same time visually. Yeesh!) I'm thinking I need to try to find an old copy of Final Cut somewhere, one that will run on my machine. I got my iLife off Craigslist, a must for people like me with virtually no disposable income. Then again, I don't know squat about Final Cut. I just know that what's available on the Mac for video editing on the lowest spectrum really seems to be less than usable for my purposes. -
Adding multiple components in same direction ?
Hi,
I'm adding multiple child panels to a single parent panel. One of such child panel is "xPanel" as shown below. The problem is that all the 4 labels overlap each other i.e. main Panel only displays "11111" i.e the last JLabel added. I know that specifying direction (e.g BorderLayout.NORTH etc) will fix the overlap problem but I want all the lables in a single row i.e. XXXXX 00000 YYYYY 11111 ..... any suggestions how to fix this ?
JPanel xPanel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
xPanel .add(new JLabel("XXXXX:"));
xPanel .add(new JLabel("00000"));
xPanel .add(new JLabel("YYYYY:"));
xPanel .add(new JLabel("11111"));
mParentPanel.AddPanel(xPanel , BorderLayout.NORTH);The default layout for a JPanel is the FlowLayout. Why did you change it do a BorderLayout?

Adding Multiple Records with Express
Hello All,
We have a CRUD application written in Express 2.0 that allows users to
enter part numbers and associated information. Our part numbers are
structured as a prefix, alpha, suffix and 'M' or 'P' number variations :
1 AB 2 P3 for example. We have provided functionality to allow the
user to enter multiple P or M variations all at once, say 1 AB 2 P1 thru
P100,
using a dialog box where they enter the starting number, ending number
and step.
The problem comes in the AddRecordsToSave method.
This method correctly builds the array of BusinessClass needed to be
passed to the Save method, however, the Save method adds only the
initial record (the one from the original Express data entry screen)
to the database.
I have traced the problem to the BusinessClient.Update method called
from
Save. I believe I am missing some query information that should be
built into
AddRecordsToSave, but I am completely unsure of how to provide this.
As you can see in the attached code, we are using the LogAttr method to
post
changes. Apparently this is not enough. What am I missing here?
The InstanceStatus key of the added records is set to ST_EMPTY by
default....
I have tried forcing this to ST_UPDATE, only to receive an error that it
should
be ST_EMPTY......?? I am confused. If anyone can shed some light on this
for me,
I would appreciate it. Thanks for any help.

Allentown, PA 18105Hi There,
If attr is not specified in your LogAttr() call, the
BusinessClass
will be put in the update state but not attributes will
be logged.
That may be the reason why only the displayed record(
fetched from
the DB ) is getting logged, but not the new records.
I think you should use ATTR_SIMPLE with LogAttr. This
will cause
all the attributes to be logged and a proper query to
be built
to insert the newly created record. I am no Express
Guru,
but it works fine for me. Also, try not to modify
InstanceStatus directly.
Sometimes it might lead to inconsistencies. The online
help
The Add Records to Save example really helps.
Good luck!

Patch tool just blends, doesn't replace
I've seen tutorials about the patch tool, but my patch tool doesn't appear to do what the tutorials do... I've read other threads about how this tool is supposed to blend near the edges to give a good result, but this is blending the whole thing. I'
