Automatically set the Black and the White points in Aperture?

Jasoninajeep, in this thread, refers to this Aperture Export article, which includes the helpful hint that holding "{Option}" while clicking the auto-luminance button in the Curves brick will cause Aperture to set the Black and the White points without making any other changes.
Is there any other way to automatically set the Black and the White points in Aperture?
Thanks.

Hi BBurgess!
Unfortunately, it sounds like you may have a service issue on your hands. While our QuickStart guide provides details on installing the cartridges in their respective slots, putting those catridges in the wrong position may cause an internal issue with the Canon PiXMA MG3222.
We recommend contacting our Technical Support group directly via this Contact Us link. Our Technical Support group can provide you with all available service options.
Thanks!

Setting the white point and gamma

I've heard that when calibrating your display you should set the white point and gamma to native. What is the difference between setting the white point at 65k and the gamma at 2.2?
Thanks in advance for your time
Rick

The difference would depend on what the native points were to begin with.

Automatically set the stroke color as fill color

Hello all,
I have a file with two squares with red and blue fill colors respectively and transparent surrounding strokes. I'm trying to find a way to automatically set the stroke color of each square to the respective fill color.
Is there an Illustrator script somewhere that would achieve that? I am not aware of an internal Illustrator command for this purpose.
Thank you

I'm not a scripting guy at all, but getting an object's fill color and applying it elsewhere sounds like it should be scriptable. You should post the question in the AI Scripting Forum.
The hitch I see here is your assertion that your objects have "transparent surrounding strokes." I could be wrong, but I believe there is actually no such thing in Illustrator. Through some simple experimenting, I conclude that an object's stroke set to "no color" by choosing the blank swatch actually becomes a stroke of undetermined, or perhaps zero, weight.
Take an object with a stroke color and weight and set its stroke to no color. The weight goes away as well. One can't exist without the other, and vice-versa, with repect to stroke weight and color. Now enter a weight for that colorless stroke, and it again receives color; defaulting to black regardless of what it may have been previously.
Similarly, if you assign a color where there is no weight, a 1-point weight appears by default.
I'm not sure how/if that plays into your plans, but I just thought I'd ramble on about it here in case it's something you hadn't considered.

Can i automatically set the timestamp of a file based on part of its filename?

I have a bunch of files (approx. 500) with the same name pattern, that is : name_CreationDate.pdf. For instance: invoice015_2013_06_25.pdf or invitation035_2012_11_30.pdf. The last 10 digits are always the creation date. The original timestamps of the files have been messed up by a batch application which set them all to the same day; therefore they mean nothing anymore.
Is there a way to automatically set the timestamp (for instance the "Creation Date" one) to the date indicated in the filename? I was thinking of Automator or some kind of shareware/freeware. Does anyone of you have an idea about this? Ideally as a batch rather than individually.
Thanks,

Thank you for your script. I made a test based on your script:
a) I copied a PDF file on my desktop and named it "URSAFF 1er trim 2012_1998_09_19.pdf". The date component I want to set ultimately is therefore 1998_09_19.
b) I created a service in Automator and pasted your script in a "Run a Shell Script" command. I added the Get Specified Finder Items at the beginning to be able to test the script on the file from Automator. (See screen shot of Automator below)
c) The script appears to run successfully but I don't see a change in the timestamps of the file after I display Get Info from the Finder. (See screen shot of Get Info after I run the shell script)
I wonder if my Region settings (I am based in France) do not interfere with the date/time string layout compatible with touch in your script. Just in case, I have added a capture of these settings.

How to set the out point beyond 9.95 seconds???

how to set the out point in Motion 5 beyond 9.95 seconds???

First you need to make sure your project is long enough then you can adjust the play range (in/out). To make sure the project is long enough:
1. From the project properties (command-J) go to the Duration field and enter a new duration.
2. Click on the down arrow icon to the right of the current time, there is an option to show the project duration. Once set to this you can double click the number and type in a new project duration. I'd recommend setting it back to show current time when done.
3. Of course you can also change the duration of a project when it is first created, in the project browser.
Once you're sure you have a long enough project you can adjust the in and out range. You then use the zoom controls in the bottom of the timeline to show more of the timeline and adjust the play range as needed. There's lots more about project and play range duration adjustments in the documentation: http://help.apple.com/motion/mac/5.1/

How do I make Mail automatically set the reciepient of an E-Mail as the replying E-Mail-Adress

Hi!
I have an @me.com iCloud E-Mail-Adress with 2 Aliases
I'm using one of them for students of my tutorial at the university, so that they can contact me without knowing my actual email-adress.
so when someone of them sends me a message to this tutorial-alias and a write an answer, i always have to set the replying email adress
from my actual @me.com to the tutorial-alias.
I often forget to do this, so in the replying email people see my actual one instead of the alias, answer on it again, and everybody starts using both.
I want to prevent this, so ist there a way to automatically set the replying adress to the one the former email im replying on was sent to?
Regards
DaNylz

Mail Preferences:
It works with accounts; I've never tried it with aliases but you may be lucky. Presumably from what you say they already appear in the drop-down menu when composing.

How do you set the in point of a clip?

I'm using the timeline template that has a number of clips flying by and I need to adjust the in point of the clips. To be clear, I'm NOT trying to adjust the point that the clip appears in the timeline but instead the portion of the clip that will be displayed as it fly's by within the Motion timeline.

All that that seems to do is set the in point of the clip on the Motion timeline. Again, what I am attempting to do is change what is seen on the particular clip that has been dropped into this template. Where the inset clip window appears on the timeline is fine but I want is a later portion of the video within that clip to be shown as it is flying by. As it is now the clip is just beginning to show the footage I want as it is flying out of view.

Setting the Mount Point

Hi
My startup disk is mounting fine but not appearing on the desktop. It does appear in Finder windows and works OK.
I see that in Disk Utility the mount point is "/" where it should probably read: "/volumes/Macintosh HD"
How can I set the mount point to the correct directory?
Thanks / Eckhard

Setting the zero point to an exact integer

When I set the zero point to an intersection of two guide lines, I often find that it is out by exactly 0.088mm. How can I set the zero point to an exact number of mm?

There aren't any frames involved. If the zero point is at the top left corner and I insert horizontal and vertical guides at, say, 10mm in from top and left side, then drag the zero point to the intersection of the two guides, clicking on the two guides reveals that they are now at -0.088 instead of zero. I accept that 0.088mm is not a huge error, but it still niggles me.

Automatic setting of brightness and contrast

I noticed that Lightroom has automatically set the brightness to +50 and contrast to +25 percent on large numbers of my images. I do not recall creating any develop preset that would have caused this to occur. Does anyone know how to turn this function off?

Those are the defaults. If you really want them different, you'll have to create a develop preset with the values you want in there, and apply it on import or to all the images to which you want those values applied.

Automatically set the mail profile for users

Hello all,
Is it possible to set the default delivery profile of all users to email and add the email device as well.
I have integrated OBIEE with LDAP, so I can read all mail adressess of the users.
But for now every user has to 'configure' his own delivery profile.
(I meand the screen when you go to settings -> my account)
Is it possible to set this profile automatically?
can't find anything about this, but I think it is strange that it can't be done...
So hope anyone out here have a good tip for me!
best regards,
Remc0

Hi,
Yes it is possible to have users' email addresses set automatically, it is what the SA System subject area is for. However I am not sure whether it is possible to get the email from LDAP. The only method I am aware of is to have a database table which holds the user's contact details and then set up SA System to use this table. The user will then have a delivery profile called "System profile" and a device called "System email" which will be the default, the email address for this device will be the one from the table and cannot be changed (although the user can override it by creating a new device/profile.
There is a section in this book:
Oracle® Business
Intelligence Server
Administration Guide
Version 10.1.3.2
December 2006
Called
About the SA System Subject Area
Which should point you in the right direction.

Is there a way to make it automatically set the ouputs of new tracks to Bus 5? (or something other than Stereo Out?)

When I add a new track, it is automatically set to Stereo Out, is there a way to make it automatically set to Bus 5? I use a mix that sends everything through busses and every time I add a track it seems I have to adjust this.
Thanks

...and/or setup one or more tracks the way you want.. and then create/save a template and load that when you want to start a new project...
You can even have Logic (via it's Startup preferences) autoload that template every time you start a new project... by choosing your template as the default one.
See this page in the User Guide for more info

Automatically Setting the Masterpage in Sharepoint 2013

I am trying to install our custom masterpage (and supporting files) as a feature which would automatically turn on and set the default masterpage to our custom one.
When deploying in VS2012, it works fine. The feature is installed & activated at the site collection level and the default masterpage is successfully changed.
But when I publish the solution and install the WSP via Solution Management in Central Administration, it doesn't work. The feature gets installed & activated at the site collection level BUT it doesn't set the masterpage to our default.
If i then turn the feature off and back on again the default masterpage is correctly set to our custom masterpage.
Our requirement is to have everything done automatically so having not having to turn the feature off and back on is something we need.
I'd appreciate any tips or help to get this working.

The question was answered in another forum,..
Second, your code fails because it assumes that the feature activation happens while on a particular SharePoint web site:
SPSite site = properties.Feature.Parent as SPSite;
If activating via PowerShell you will not get a valid SPSite object via the code above, while it works just fine if running via a Web browser UI on the site collection feature page.
Disabling the auto-activation and run the corresponding PowerShell code to activate the feature once the WSP has been installed and deployed should fix your problem.
Do this worked like a charm.

Automatically setting the browsers title

Hi,
we are rendering xdp forms using LiveCycle Forms 7.1, and using Reader 8.0. The pdfs are opened inside of the browser.
Just wondering if there is a way, in the xdp, of setting the browsers title when it opens the pdf? something like xfa.host.title = "Window title", although this does not work.
Currently, the title is set to the URL of the link used to generate the xdp.
thanks,
John
