AttachMovie always in front of placed items.

I have some MCs that are placed in the timeline and others
that are dynamically created using the attachMovie command, but no
matter what level I put the attached movies in they are always on
top of the placed MCs. Is there a way to attached MCs in between
two layers of placed MCs?

you can trace the depth of the MC that you have placed on the
stage by using getDepth(). They are normally around -16000
something in depth. Then use swapDepths to get your dynamically
attached movie clip to the depth needed.

  • How to use Find Change to add FC in front of all item numbers?

    Hello,
    I am using Indesign CS5 on iMac, running OS 10.8.3.
    I designed a product catalog that has 148 pages. Now I need to save the same design and make a new catalog for our wholesalers. On the wholesalers catalog I need to change the item numbers and add FC in front of each item number. How can I use find change to find each item and change them with FC in front of the item numbers? The following are a few examples of the item numbers:
    LED-4042 I want to change it to FCLED-4042
    UA-42 I want to change it to FCUA-42
    SC-110 change it to FCSC-110
    KN-10 change it to FCKN-10
    etc....
    I am hoping there is a fast way to find and change these.  I was looking in to GREP, but I could not figure how to do this.
    Thanks,
    Omar

    One way would be to just run it and then *remove* any double FC's -- but GREP can do even more! One of its many functions is to scan ahead for the presence or absence of certain text, and only act when it is (or it is not) there. This is called "lookbehind" (before the text you want to match) and "lookahead" (after the text you want to match).
    In this case, you want to find a phrase starting with capitals, but NOT the exact string "FC". That's a job for Negative Lookahead -- Only Match If Not.
    Try this: search for
    \b(?!FC)\u+-\d+\b
    ... the Replace With stays the same.

  • How to fit placed items multiple up?

    Hello,
    I am new to InDesign CC, and apologize if what I am looking for is a simple command and I am just not calling it the right thing.
    I am wanting to know if there is a way to automatically fill a blank document with placed items making it multiple up?
    A simple example would be a business card that I designed in InDesign. I have the margins, document size and bleed edges set, I would like to place them multiple up on various sizes to see what size would hold the most to trim. 8up typically go on a letter sized document etc. But now many could I fit on 12"x18", etc.
    What I am trying to accomplish not having to align each one manually which is slowing my work flow down. Plus when customers have odd sized documents they want cut and padded etc, having the abilitiy for the software to automatically place items that are all alligned by their trim edges would save a lot of proofing and re laying items out.
    The idea comes from my Silouette Cameo personal cutting plotter. The software lets you fill the cut area with a design and it is filled equally.
    There has to be a way commercial users can do this with out figuring all the math?
    Thanks for reading and have a great day.

  • Help Viewer Window - always in front?

    Is there a way to get the Help Viewer Window so that it is not always in front in OS 10.6.2?

    They stay in front because most people want to view the information while working on something. It's hard to follow a list of instructions when you constantly have to pull the viewer to the front each time.
    It would appear that iTweaX option for the viewer does not work. Mac Pilot does not have the configuration. I've checked several other utilities none of which support the option for SL. I guess the option worked in Leo but does not work in SL.

  • Windows always in front

    hey guys, this is probably a dumb questions, but when i have ichat windows open, they are always in front of everything else. for instance, i have safari open, but can't see half the webpage cause the ichat window is in the way. is there a way to change this? i looked in preferences but didnt see it. I could have just missed it though. thanks!

    Turn off that setting in Chax.
    You can set at each iChat Window so you will probably have to deselect it window by window.

  • Dialog always in front

    Hello,
    how can I create a Dialog, that has always the focus and is always in front until it is closed.
    Greetings from Cologne!
    Marcel!

    You want a modal dialog...see http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/awt/Dialog.html
    You can use a constructor that allows you to set modal to true or call setModal(true)

  • Placed items in photoshop can't be moved unless quit and re-open

    CS6 using Mac OSX 10.8 (And earlier versions) won't allow me to move placed items unless I quit and re-start!

    Can you not even move the placed file (Smart Object Layer) after you have confirmed the initial import?
    This is very strange behavior, works without issue on my side. I'd suggest recreating the preference files to get behavior back to normal.

  • Applescrpt illus cs4 - how to "rasterize" a selection of placed items

    any help is appreciated!
    thanks

    I did something similar using an action
    --get a sourceFolder that holds the files to print
    set sourceFolder to (choose folder with prompt "Choose a folder with files to process:") as text
    -- get a list of files of the files to be printed in the sourceFolder
    tell application "Finder" to set workingFiles to (every file of folder sourceFolder) as alias list
    repeat with workingFile in workingFiles
        tell application "Adobe Illustrator"
            open workingFile
            tell current document
                set layerRef to (first layer whose name is "RED")
                set g to every page item of layerRef
                repeat with i from 1 to count of g
                    set selected of item i of g to true
                    do script "raster" from "Default Actions" without dialogs
                    delay 1

  • "Always Available off line" menu item not available for user on computer where another does see it. This is on Active Directory Computer

    I have a lap top that I want to add files via Always available off line.
    When I logon and right click on a folder share I can see the menu item all was available offline.  When the user logs on this option is not available.  I have turned the feature on and off, rebooted, I have deleted the cache folder but I cannot
    see how to get this menu item to show up.  It's odd that it shows up for one user but not another on the same computer.  I have searched the web and tried the above things and others but cannot seem to resolve this problem.  It seems pretty
    common and their. This computer is on a domain.
    thanks.

    Hi,
    So as we edited the group policy settings in the default domain policy, the menu item is now available?
    And as we are in a domain environment and the settings is configured under the default domain policy, how the domain users behave different from each other? Which someone could see and the other not？
    Could we please generate a
    GPO report to take a check?
    And regarding group policy issue, it is recommended to seek help in the group policy forum, experts there may share some insights:

  • Indesign Scripting: How can I move a placed item using Javascript?

    Hey all,
    I have been trying to write a script that places a slug object from an indesign library on to a document and then moves it to my slug area. It all seems to work except the move command. I think the problem is that I haven't selected my placed asset correctly.
    Please help!
    This is what I have so far:
    //Create new document
    var doc = app.documents.add();
    // Get page size values
    var w = doc.documentPreferences.pageWidth;
    var h = doc.documentPreferences.pageHeight;
    //Create layer called SLUG
    var slugLayer = doc.layers.add({name:"SLUG"});
    //Set document slug area size
    doc.documentPreferences.documentSlugUniformSize = false;
    doc.documentPreferences.slugBottomOffset = "20 mm";
    //Open InDesign library file that contains the slug file
    var slugLibrary = app.open(File("/Users/Shared/Slug.indl"));
    //Place slug script to go here
    var myPlacedAsset = slugLibrary.assets.item("Slug");
    var mySlug = myPlacedAsset.placeAsset(doc);
    //Close the slug library
    slugLibrary.close();
    // Move slug object to slug area
    mySlug.move([0,0]);
    //Lock SLUG layer
    slugLayer.locked = true;

    placeAsset is an array so this line :  mySlug.move([0,0]);
    should be changed to: mySlug[0].move([0,0]);

  • Stage.nativeWindow.alwaysInFront how to keep the window always in front

    Hi, I've just written and application that needs to always be in front of the other applications. I have set the application's nativeWindow.alwaysInFront property to true, but, after a few other air applications open the application will get pushed behind. It seems to work when the first application opens up, but after opening a second time it will no longer be on top. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    One way is to browse your iTunes Music Library in the Finder and open the video file with QuickTime instead of playing it in iTunes. Then you have always-on-top and also fixes the "full screen on 2nd monitor" problem. Maybe not ideal, but a workaround.

  • Tab control always on front

    Dear LabVIEWers,
    is there a way to have a tab control always on the front of the screen. In my case a "small" tab control that contains controls for the general program is embedded in a bigger tab control for different functions. As mentioned I want to have the general tab control always be visible on the front ...
    Thank you very much for any help,
    Michael

    >
    The typical solution is to place the object above the tab control rather
    than in it. Start with the object outside of the tab, Select it so that
    it can be moved with the keyboard, and use arrows and shift arrows to
    move it to the right location. Note that it has a shadow beneath it
    indicating that it is above rather than in the object it is over.

  • Always Get Edit Link When Item Level Permissions Set

    We've enabled item-level permissions in a folder, and all users receive the "edit folder" button, regardless of whether we've given them "manage" access. Turning off item-level permissions removes the edit link.
    Is this a known issue? Any workaround/solution?

    That's just a "feature" of item level security, I don't think Oracle has any plans to fix it in 3.0.9X they probably have resolved the issuse in 9.0.2 ..... If you really need it gone you can click "Edit Defaults" when editing the page, right next to the portlet and uncheck the box that says show "Show Edit Link".. But then you just taken away the easy ability of editing the items through the portlet and you have to go back to the Content Area to update anything.

  • Placing items horizontally and vertically in a region

    Hi all,
    I would like to know if we can place items both horizantally and vertically in a region ...I would like to place them in a table-like arrangement.
    Thanks,
    Nashy

    Hi Nashy,
    in your Page Item Properties Page you can define, if your item should start on a new line. When you set this to "No" the item is rendered next to the previous Item.
    Hope that helps,
