Adjustment Sliders Unresponsive with specific Presets ...

I have noticed a problem with making adjustments using the parameter sliders located in the Inspector. The odd thing is that it only happens when working with H.264 or MPEG-2 presets.
For example: The Apple TV preset, listed under Apple Devices - I cannot mouse over a slider and make an adjustment as normal. As soon as I attempt to do so, I get a spinning beach ball that lasts about 5 seconds. Subsequently, the slider sort of pops over to a random setting. It's impossible to achieve accurate results.
The same holds true if I attempt to key in specific numerical parameter - hesitation - beach ball, etc.
I set up various presets using basic QT settings using codecs like Sorenson 3 and others, and the sliders function as normal.
Can someone try this and please let me know if you are experiencing similar issues?
Thanks.

  • Wanted: Panel-specific presets

    I just submitted this as a feature request but wonder who else thinks this might be a good idea:
    In the Develop module all the panels pertaining to development are on the right hand side (RHS) which allows me to keep the LHS panels closed almost all of the time. The exception occurs whenever I want to use a develop panel (e.g., "Effects") to achieve an effect (e.g., vignetting) but would like to start from a proven starting point that I only have to tweak a little rather than recreating it time and again. I then have to involve the "Presets" panel on the LHS.
    Using the standard presets available from the LHS "Presets" panel has the following disadvantages:
    1. I have to move away from the RHS panel, across the full width of the screen to select a preset from the LHS panel, only to return to the RHS panel in order to tweak the starting point so that it fits the individual image
    2. I have to continuously open and close the LHS panels because when I'm using the RHS panels, I'd like to see the image as large as possible and hence keep the LHS panels closed
    3. All presets, whether they pertain to vignetting, B&W conversion, sharpening settings, etc. are lumped together at the LHS "Presets" panel. I know I can organise them with folders, but still they are all in one place and I have to scroll through vignetting and B&W conversion presets just to get to the sharpening presets (or alternatively keep opening and closing folders all the time).
    If there were panel-specific presets then
    1. selecting a proven starting point and tweaking it would require only quick local mouse movements.
    2. the image could stay maximised all the time.
    3. when I'm creating effects, I only see the effects presets, when I sharpen, I only see the sharpening presets, etc.
    Of course the user needs to be able to add their own local presets.
    Note that that the adjustment brush already has panel-specific presets. Just as the adjustment brush offers "Teeth Whitening", the other panels should offer presets like "Soft Vignette, Round Corners, ..." in the Effects panel, "Aggressive Detail, Minimal Halos, ..." in the Details panel, and so on. I think it would be brilliant for the tone curve.
    Anyone else thinks this would be worth having?

  • How to create PDF from text file with specific layout?

    I wanted to create the pdf from text file in specific layout - Landscape orientation and JIS B3 Page size while at Adobe Acrobat Pro.
    In past, I could do a right click on a text file (desktop area) and select print to print out the document into .pdf BUT only if I set the Adobe PDF to Landscape and JIS B3 Page size BEFORE.  And I could only do 15 text documents at once.
    I wanted to see if I could do the create the pdf from text file with specific layout in Adobe Acrobat without having to go to Control Panel to preset the Adobe PDF to specific layout at every time.   I would have to set Adobe PDF back to normal layout after I'm done with these pdf print outs.  I do lots of pdfs in normal layout.  Sometimes I would forget to do that.
    So, How do I do that?

    No such luck.  It would output the contents in letter size even in JIS B3 Page layout at MS word. 
    Is there a script or action where I could set the orientation and page size before creating PDF on these text files?

  • Changing adjustment sliders colous

    I don't know if I missed anything but when using PSE 10 I find that many of the adjustment sliders are very difficult too see.  For instance if you use the spot healing tool you basically have a black slider on a black background.  Is there a way around this?

    I fear there is no way to change the UI of the PSE
    But PSE11 is with all new UI and bigger fonts and sliders. Why don't you go ahead and try its trail

  • Snap Adjustment Sliders Back To 0?

    In iPhoto '11 is there a way to get the Adjust sliders to snap back to 0? Is there some kind of key you can hold down to do this? Or is the only way to simply drag an Adjustment slider manually back to 0?
    Thanks

    I have no solution for that - but I get what you're saying.   
    What I would do, and I don't know if this would work for you, is create a playlist of podcasts, arrange them in the order you want to listen.    I know you can drag podcasts into playlists like you would with any song, and iTunes will treat them like songs - you can sort them by date added or name.        Stupid to have to workaround when it worked fine before, but this would quickly get you to the podcast you were listening to.      The "resume playback from where you left off" function will still work if you do it this way.
    This is another bullet point in the long list of what's wrong with iTune11.     Today on a song I was trying to get to "show in finder", I accidentally let go on "show in iTunes store" instead.    iTunes rocketed to the store, and there was no way for me to get back to what I had been looking at before - it required conducting the same search all over again.       I don't recall this being a problem in earlier versions of iTunes, you could go back.
    Good luck !

  • Working in Logic 9, how do I use a drum loop WITH ITS PRESET EFFECTS? I can drag and drop the loop but it plays dry in timeline. thanks

    Working in Logic 9, how do I use a drum loop WITH ITS PRESET EFFECTS? I can drag and drop the loop but it plays dry in timeline. thanks

    Here's the short-cut solution:
    Green Apple tracks are MIDI files (so to speak). If you drag one from the loop browser (Capitol C Orchestral hit, as you mentioned in this exable) directly into the arrange page it creates the MIDI file and the instrument to play it back on.
    HOWEVER.If you create and audio track first, THEN drag the green Apple loop onto that track, the loop will get "bounced" with the reverb in tact and you'll have the exact sound that you heard in the preview.
    Make sense?

  • Is Acrobat Pro right for us. We have an Employee Handbook that needs editing. Some is current pdf, some from an older version. Want to get all into one handbook, have the table of contents automatically adjust and link to specific pages from the ToC.

    You can download the trial version (http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html) to convert the PDF back to WORD if you do not have the original. The conversion may not be perfect, but it is typically better than starting from scratch. You may be lucky and get a good result. You might check the settings (in the save screen) to try retain format versus retain text flow. The format version can be a pain to edit since it creates a bunch of text boxes. The flow version may require you to reformat in WORD, but you likely would want to do that anyway.

  • Layout adjustment not working with tables

    Hi all
    Why will layout adjustment not work with tables?
    I am trying to re-format from A4 landscape to A4 portrait.
    The text box containing the table will resize but not the table.
    Any clues why this might be, I don't want to manually resize every table in the document.
    Many thanks,
    Rob

    Thanks Jongware,
    Having resized the table and got the little red ovals, I tried various things like changing the font size etc but the best workaround I found was to select the table and change the cell inset value to 0, this got rid of all red ovals and I didn't need to change the font size.
    Cheers,
    Rob

  • I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong.  How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

    I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong.  How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

    If I understand you correctly, when you enter a date in the Adjust Date and Time window, the picture does not update with the date you enter.  If that is the case then something is wrong with iPhoto or your perhaps your library.
    How large a date change are you putting in?  iPhoto currently has an issue with date changes beyond about 60 years at a time.  If the difference between the current date on the image and the date you are entering is beyond that range that may explain why this is not working.
    If that is not the case:
    Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.iphoto
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
    ---NOTE: to get to the "home > library" hold down option on the keyboard and click on "Go" > "Library" while in the Finder.
    Let me know the results.

  • Check in new documents in DMS with specific access permissions

    Hi,
    we have an RFC which creates new documents in DMS.
    This calls one after another these FBs:
    - CVAPI_DOC_CREATE
    - CVAPI_DOC_CHECKIN
    - BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHANGE2 for a additional classification of the new document
    Now we have a new request from our customer: to give the document specific access permissions.
    We try the following:
    - manually check in a document template with the necessary permissons.
    - the permissions are given in a classification  ("O,MW-T-D*,IB,02/03/52/53")
    - This is named "authority characteristic" and is checked somewhere else, I do not really know how this works in detail ( but it works)
    - check in a new document with a reference to the template and in expectation that the new document has the same classification and therefore the same access permissions
    - If I do this manually in CV03N is does work
    - We do this with CVAPI_CHECK_IN_WITH_TEMPLATE - but this FB does not copy the classification ( only the description and the attached original documents , and the documentnumber of the new document is an mandatory parameter which is not allowd in our case since we use internal creation of document numbers)
    My question is: Is this a possible way to create new documents with specific permissions
    Is there a possibility to give the permissions to the documenttype instead of give them to every single document of this documenttype ?
    Thanks
    Kerstin

    My guess is that at some point you propagated the ACL entry for "everyone deny delete" to all your folders and sub-folders and their contents by selecting Apply to All in a GetInfo window. Try doing a search in the Leopard forums for
    ACL chmod
    and you'll find a whole raft of discussions about the problem and suggestions for fixes.

  • Converting word to pdf in A4 with specific margins

    I need  all my new forms designed in Word and converted into pdf  to be in A4 size with specific sized margins top, bottom, left and right as  per Standards guidelines. Do I need to set up Acrobat to do this or will it just convert exactly from MS Word margins?  Are there preferences or properties I need to set up first for  Adobe Acrobat.

    Acrobat works with page layouts that are already fixed before it starts, it has no idea of a margin. So all the setup is in Word. Word sometimes changes layout as the PDF is made. To minmize this, choose the Adobe PDF printer before making the PDF (even if you don't directly use the printer).
