Applying filter to all states in animation

Hi, im new to fireworks for animating.
I have a bunch of images (about 150) in an animations and i wanted to apply a color fill filter to all states. What is the most effective way to do this?
Thank you

One way to apply filters to multiple states is by onion skinning. It basically makes all objects clickable at once, regardless of what states they're on.
Click on the small button in the lower left corner of the States panel. Make sure that "No Onion Skinning" is unchecked, and "Multi-State Editing" is checked. Also, if you want to apply the effect to all of your states, check "Show All States" as well.
Now, while you are in the first state of animation, switch to the Select Behind tool (hit 0 to toggle from the regular selection tool). Hold down Shift and repeatedly click on the canvas to select objects from consecutive states. You can check if it works by looking at the radio buttons on the rightmost side of each state in the States panel. With each click, the radio button in the next state gets marked.
When you're done with the selection, set the live filter as you normally would with a single object, and it will automatically apply to all selected objects in all states.
It's still a tedious method when there are a lot of objects involved, like in your case. Not only it's a lot of individual selections, but also rapid clicking will be registered as a double-click, changing the Select Behind tool to one of the marquee tools.
There might be a more efficient way, but it requires some experience with blend modes. The steps are the following:
Make a new layer, right-click it and select "Share Layer to States". Make sure that this layer is the topmost layer in the stack.
Draw a rectangle with solid fill, no stroke. Make sure it that  it spans the entire animated area.
With the rectangle selected, play around with the Blend modes (in the upper left corner of the Layers panel), until you get the color effect you're looking for. The color change will affect the entire animation, just as if you applied a color fill to all objects. The final look will depend on the rectangle's initial color, the blend mode, and the colors of the underlying objects.
Good luck!

  • Applying filter on all tabs of application

    Hi,
    Can anyone help me out from my situation...,
    I have created a application with 6tabs on it....each tab(different area of the company) contains a form and interactive report .
    Report :
    part no. || Part Name || Place || date
    Report shows the current data,which can be editable.
    Form is used to insert a new record(part no details) into report....
    my situation:
    when a user creates a new part using FORM.....if he changes to report format he will see all the old part no's and new one created.....to see only the new part records say he applied the filter on part number with new record value.....
    this "part number"column is common field in all 6tabs...
    so if he navigates thru the other 5tabs the new part number should automaticaly be the filter ...instaed of user applying the filter on all 6tabs ....
    Please let me know if it is not clear....
    Regards
    Thanks in advance.....
    NOTE: one more option, i donno if it is easy....if a user creates a new user and switches to report mode he should see only the new record created and apply the same to all other five tabs...

    Hi Raj,
    Firstly, you have to consider how the user is going to apply a filter. Does the user select the new record's part number from a list, for example, or do they click a link on the report?
    If the user just applied a filter from one page only, you can use that filter on all other pages by simply refering to the same filter. For example, if the user selected from a list, on page 1, with a page item name of P1_FILTER, then all reports on all pages can use WHERE PART_NUMBER = :P1_FILTER as a filter. However, in your case, if I understand correctly, the user could be on ANY of the six pages and apply a filter. In such cases, you need to use a standard item name that can be applied to all reports as a filter. You, therefore, need to set a GLOBAL item. Go to Shared Components, Application Items and create a new item called, say, G_FILTER. Update your reports to include WHERE PART_NUMBER = :G_FILTER. Now, you need to ensure that G_FILTER is set to the selected part number. This can be handled in several ways, the simplest is probably on the page branch that is being triggered by the filter selection - you can use the branch settings to set G_FILTER to &P1_FILTER. (or whatever the page item name is on each page). If the filter is set from a link, you apply the same principle to the link settings. Either way, whichever page the user is on, the G_FILTER value is set and, as all reports use this, they will all be filtered using the same value.

  • How do I apply the blur filter to all my layers at the same time?

    Hi I'm working on a background for a web page and I want to try how different filters are going to affect all the layers. Is it possible to apply a filter to all the layers without flattening the file first? Thanks very much,
    Cathy

    Thanks very much , that's really helpful,Cathy

    Hello!
    There is no need to flatten the file, but you can create a layer that merges all the content of the image, and apply the filter on that layer.
    Target the topmost layer, by holding the Option and . (period) keys, then create a merged copy by holding down Command Shift Option E.

  • Applying filter to 'Other Users' has stopped working (v1.0.0.15.57)

    With no apparant reason (or changes to my workstation), the apply filter feature to limit 'Other Users' has stopped working. The problem began on the day that SQLDev failed to display the navigation frame.
    I've got the nav frame back, but the filter on 'Other Users' still doesn't work.
    Can anyone tell me where the filter entries are stored?
    Oh, what's worse, the initial display of 'Other Users' does not include the entire list. Today the 'Show more/All users' failed to expand the list to all users. One of the users not initially displayed owns files to which I need access. (The solution was to stop and restart SQLDev - but that is a pain is the a$$.)

    Editing preference files is not supported. Doing so can corrupt the settings and cause SQL Developer to run improperly.
    Okay, having gotten that out of the way, let me see if I can help you get this sorted out. The filters are stored inside the preferences.xml file, located under jdev\system\oracle.onlinedb.11.0.0.37.42.
    The first step is to back up this file. Once you have done that, you can try to remove the filter info. The preferences in the file are stored as keys and values. Search for the key with the text 'ConnectionOptions'. Under the value element associated with this key, there should be a filterMap element. This element contains all of the navigator filters. Each filter will look like this:
    <Item>
    <Key>&lt;others>@local</Key>
    <Value class="oracle.jdeveloper.cm.dt.browser.SchemaFolderFilter">
    <filter>
    <Item>FOO</Item>
    <Item>SYS</Item>
    <Item>SYSTEM</Item>
    </filter>
    <visibleObjectsOnly>false</visibleObjectsOnly>
    </Value>
    </Item>
    In this case, this is a filter on the Other Users folder. To clear the filter, remove the entire item element (that is, delete everything between and including the <item> and </item>.
    This should restore the navigator filter back to its initial state (that is, no filter).
    Let me know if this doesn't work, and I'll come up with some other things to try.

  • Few values of report column do not display in report while applying filter

    Post Author: anuragg11
    CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
    There are 6 drill filters applied on the report to filter out the report column data. Few values of the report are not displaying in the report when using drill filter. Same issue is with report filter too. If filters are removed then values are appearing in the report. We are using version BO XI R2 & Java runtime JRE 1.4v. It doesn't look issue is with Java version because only few specific data of the report column are not shown in the report when using filter on the data. Example: One of Report data column contains below values: 24.2, 26.9, 120.1, 230, 274.9, 275.8, 333.2 Report is displaying all these values when there is no filter on any data. But report doesn't display data when applying filter on 274.9 or 120.1 howver filter on other values 24.2, 26.9, 230, 275.8, 333.2 are working fine.

    Hello,
    I think i know what your problem is.
    Although in table view your 2 requests combine perfectly and show separate results in pivot view BI unfortunaterly adds them up.
    One work around would be to go in your criteria add in each request a dummy column. This can be obtained the following way:
    1. click on a column to add it in the criteria (it doesnt matter which one)
    2. go into the edit formula of that column
    3. delete the formula and in its place write 'Dummy Column 1'
    Do the same for the second request by adding a "Dummy Column 2'
    Now the Pivot Table should also show up correctly
    Let me know if it goes well or if you have any further questions,

  • Selecting a column in Answers report based on user prompt/ apply filter

    I need to do the following in OBIEE Answers report (version 10.1.3.4.1):
    1) Think of a simple table with dim TX_type and some measures like month_jan, month_feb, month_mar
    so the fact table looks like (column names) tx_type, month_jan, month_feb, month_mar
    2) I need to select the measure column based on a user dashboard prompt, prompt populates a presentation variable var_month = jan or feb or mar
    3) I need to select the correct measure (one of these month_jan, month_feb, month_mar) and then apply column filter based on the dim TX_type to split the values of these into multiple columns for report. So the report may look like (in Answers)
    Sales , Tax, overheads
    where Sales may be defined as sum(month_jan) where rows have TX_type = 'sales'
    where Tax may be defined as sum(month_feb) where rows have TX_type = 'tax'
    where overheads may be defined as sum(month_mar) where rows have TX_type = 'overheads'
    IF the user selects jan
    IF user selects Feb then the 3 report columns are based on month_feb and likewise for month_mar
    I cannot use column selector option as the report column further apply filter in column filter definitions in Answers...
    4) When I try to build the column filter using a presentation variable (var_month), the presentation variable is not getting populated in the column filter.
    For e.g. IF var_month = 'jan'
    THEN month_jan (let us assume the logical column name is month_jan too)
    ELSE month_feb and so on...
    However, the var_month always shows 0 in the IF clause. If we used a repository variable instead, it works fine. But since repostory variable cannot be changed on the fly (by user prompt) it is not usable.
    We cannot change fact table defintion....and we have 12 measures column and about 8-10 different colum filter based report columns using this measure.

    Hi shyamvaran,
    have you thought about a SQL statement in the prompt, something like:
    SELECT
    case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Jan' end
    FROM "Subject Area"
    union
    SELECT
    case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Feb' end
    FROM "Subject Area"
    union
    SELECT
    case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Mar' end
    FROM "Subject Area"
    union
    SELECT
    case when 1=0 then Table."Column" else 'Apr' end
    FROM "Subject Area"
    etc...
    Use this to give you the 12 values for your months then give the prompt column a presentation variable name and set a default value in the 'Default To'. Also set the same default value for the filter.
    A couple of points:
    1. If you're transforming the presentation variable from 'Jan' to 'month_jan' you may need to edit the syntax for the filter column (not using the dialog box).
    2. If you're transforming the behaviour of a dimension / measure column in the report, have you specified the syntax correctly, e.g. sum('@{pres_var}')?
    Hope this helps,
    Justin

  • Is there a way to make state transitions/animations of a fl.control states - button for example ?

    Is there a way to make state transitions/animations of a fl.control states - button for example ?
    All I can do now is change the skin design and that's it, I can't animate between states like I can with Flash Builder skins. So is there a way to do that, any technique or I have to create a button component from scratch?
    Thanks!

    simplebuttons have upState etc properties you can use to assign movieclips to the 3 states.  you can use the currentFrame property of movieclps to (appear to) smoothly transition from one state to another.

  • PSE 10 crashes when applying filter

    Steps to reproduce
    1. Load image (In my case .NEF file)
    2. Select Smart Brush (either one)
    3. In the options bar, select    Show All > Florescent Chalk
    4. Apply filter. Elements starts creating multiple layers and than crashes.
    Can reproduce this every time and so far only with the Florescent Chalk filter. (Crashes with Raw and jpg)
    Windows 7 64 bit, 8GB mem, GeForce GTX 275 video

    The action Florescent Chalk should still show up for the Smart Brush Tool under show all.
    I had to start pse 10 up a second time before it would show (that's without rebuilding the media data base file)
    I think the updated action was just to address the crash with the smart brush tool and it would probably take a major rewrite of the action
    to enable it to work with a selected part of a layer and with the smart brush tool at the same time (the two effects use the same action), as
    most of those image effect actions are quite old and some haven't been changed much since photoshop 4 (the first photoshop version with actions around 1996/97).
    You should be able to make a selection on the layer, new layer via copy, then run the action from the effects panel for a similar result as just making a selection on a layer.

  • Web Layer locked into sharing on all states?

    Is there any way to unlock the web layer so that it doesn't share all hotspots/slices on all states within a page?  I would like to modify the hotspots of a page based on the current state.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Mark

    To go to a specific state via a hotspot link, you'd need to be able to target that state somehow—for example, by assigning it an ID. But I don't think Fireworks offers that ability. Again, I think that's because states are intended primarily for creating animated GIFs. (FYI: States were originally called "frames".)
    You'd also have to think about how the state is being output. Pages are output as HTML files, but states... are usually components of an animated graphic, I think. Unless you export them separately as standalone files.
    I'm kind of talking off the top of my head here... These links may offer a bit more background on the intended uses of States and Pages:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/fireworks/cs/using/WS4c25cfbb1410b0021e63e3d1152b00db4b-7f72.h tml
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/fireworks/articles/pages_states_layers.html
    I imagine you could design your calendar and its components in Fireworks, using separate pages. Then you'd output to HTML and have to do a bit of hand-coding to add the lightbox script and its accompanying javascript library (if required), as well as making any other small modifications necessary to "hook up" the lightbox to the HTML page, as directed by the instructions provided with the lightbox.

    Hi,
    If you have a POF configuration with an entry for 1002, is the cache server actually using the correct configuration file. In the server side log file you should see something like this...

  • How to capture the values after applying filter in ALV.

    Hi,
    I have an ALV in my application with 10 projects displayed. Out of those 10 projects, 5 projects have banking as industry.
    when you filter the ALV based on industry banking I get 5 projects .In run time  how  can  I capture only these 5 projects. when I debugged and saw the ALV table node is holding 10 prj not 5 prj.
    How can  read only those 5 values. Kindly help me out with sample code.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    The class name is correct - CL_SALV_WD_FIELD. When you refer the model object(CL_SALV_WD_CONFIG_TABLE-IF_SALV_WD_FIELD_SETTINGS) this will return the field for which
    you have applied filter by passing the field name.
    Before you try out this approach, check the ALV event ON_CELL_ACTION fro that column name to capture the filtering value. Based on this loop at the table where field eq <<filerting value>> and get the filtered records.
    As you have get_static_attributes_table it deosnot return the filtered values.
