Basic Menu Question
I'm trying to obtain this menu: A simple menu with a still background (already have the background) with six sub categories: Each category, when clicked on, plays a video clip. So I will have six video clips. To label each video clip, there will be a still image picture.
...So in its basic sense, I am trying to achieve any menu you see in DVD movies where you go to a "Scene Selection" menu. Then I'll prbably have some text right next to the still frame, just like in a DVD menu.
One of my problems is I am unsure as to how to encode these videos to make them compatible with DVDSP.
I apologize for dumping this simple question on, but the DVD Studio Pro Help Manual is convoluted at best and I am under a tight deadline. I really appreciate any answer.
Nevermind, I got everything converted, all is well.

I will try and make this question as unconfusing as possible. I have a DVD with a basic menu screen. It offers to play the whole film or go to the scene selection menu. When I go to the scene selection menu obviously I have the option to do just that. When I select a scene (or chapter) it will play it. My question is, if I have picked the wrong scene or I just want to go back to the scene selection menu, how do I make that happen? If I press menu it will just take me back to the main menu. It seems tedious to do it that way to keep having to go back to the main menu then to the scene selections menu. In short
What do I need to do to make the dvd go back to the scene selections menu when it was the last one selected?What do I need to do to make the dvd go back to the scene selections menu when it was the last one selected?
You can also program the remote control's functions specifically for your DVD. It's not easy to understand in the manual but it's all explained. For instance, you could program the TITLE or MENU keys to return specifically to the scene selection menu. The problem with changing the programming is that's how the key will work for your entire disk unless, of course, you can figure out how to use the user memory registers and write a little script that will have conditionals.

How can I retrieve the "Basic" menu on Lightroom 5? I accidentally bumped something while working in the Develop module of Lightroom 5, and now the Tone Curve menu is directly under the Tool Bar, with no option to click on "Basic."

I have some Basic iPhoto questions before I start using the program:
- does iPhoto apply any compression or change images in any way when they
are imported?
- after images are imported, can the original source folder of images be deleted off of the mac?
- can Quicktime files exported from iPhoto be viewed on a Windows computer?
- can iPhoto handle large resolution images that might be as large as 8-15mb each? does it display them quick? are there any known file size issues?
Thanks!!!!kat.
Is there a way to use iPhoto on a network so other users can read and possibly write to an iPhoto library on a networked mac?
iPhoto is a consumer level photo organiser, not a server. It's possible to share photos but libraries are very difficult and fraught with the danger of database corruption. Some have reported success.
Is it possible to password protect or secure certain images in the library so they can not be seen by anyone?
No. The best I can suggest there is to create a second library and store it in a secure area like a protected dmg. But remember, you can only have one library open at a time.
After photos are deleted from iPhoto, are there any remaining traces or cached files anywhere other than the trash
If you delete photos from iPhoto and empty the iPhoto trash then the pics are removed from the Finder as well. They remain as findable as any other deleted file from that point, which is, very, if the searcher in knowledgeable.

Help with creating basic menu using AS
i am working on a portfolio site for my friend who is a
photographer and am looking to create a basic menu that when any
menu item is moused over it enlarges and the other menu items move
to make room for this enlarged menu item. i have tried to show this
in the attached image.
it would be much appreciated if someone could offer me some
assistance or tips. thank you.
Link
to preview exampleHello and welcome to the forums,
What I would do there is use something like "Tweener", found
at
http://code.google.com/p/tweener/.
This is built to work with AS 2.0 and 3.0. You could also use Mc
Tween, found at
http://hosted.zeh.com.br/mctween/.
I am most comfortable with Mc Tween, I just haven't had time to
look at Tweener. Basically it would work something like the
following....
What the code does is when you rollover the menu item, it
will scale to 110% of its original size and when you rollout it
scales to 100%...
In order to use mc tween, you have to download and install
the extenstion first.
Once you've done that you will be all set... but if you plan
on eventually using AS 3.0, check out Tweener.

Adding Date/Time Field + X Number of Days - Basic Calculation Question
I am assuming this is a basic calculation question. New to Adobe LiveCycle Forms.
I have a simple form containing a table. The table appears as such:
Text
Formatted as Date/Time Fields
Header 3
Monday
user wil choose the beginning date (Date/Time) this is DateTimeField1
Tuesday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 1
Wednesday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 2
Thursday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 3
Friday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 4
Saturday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 5
Sunday
this should calculate DateTimeField1 + 6
Calculations are performed after the date is chosen for Monday. My mind tells me the simple calculation of DateTimeField1 + 1 is not going to work (and in fact doesn't!) as it needs to change Monday to a number first. I saw on another thread the following:
Num2Date(Date2Num(Date(DateTimeField1), "DD.MM.YYYY")+7, "DD.MM.YYYY")
Thought this was going to get me close. No cigars though!
Any quick help is greatly appreciated. And since I am new to this, details about what needs to be changed would be great too!
ThanksHere an addition for you date field.
This FormCalc script in the exit:Event will check it the selected date is on a monday.
If not it will go the days back until the last monday.
var Selection = Date2Num($.formattedValue, DateFmt(2))
var WeekDay = Num2Date(Selection, "E")
var NewDate
if (WeekDay eq 1) then
NewDate = Selection - 6
elseif (WeekDay eq 3) then
NewDate = Selection - 1
elseif (WeekDay eq 4) then
NewDate = Selection - 2
elseif (WeekDay eq 5) then
NewDate = Selection - 3
elseif (WeekDay eq 6) then
NewDate = Selection - 4
elseif (WeekDay eq 7) then
NewDate = Selection - 5
else
NewDate = Selection
endif
$ = Num2Date(NewDate, "EEE DD.MM.YYYY")
Hope this helps, too. -
Can a fill-in-the-blank or dropdown menu question have variable answers?
Hello -- I'm trying to create a fill-in-the-blank or dropdown menu question that allows the user to enter an anser with room for error. For example, if the user enters "0.30", then "0.28" and "0.32" would still be correct. Is there a javascript or something that would allow that? I'm willing to pay for a solution.
Perhaps so, but even with that range, I'd still likely opt for what I said earlier. It would seem simpler than devising an Advanced Action. Just list the following as acceptable answers.
0.28
0.29
0.30
0.31
0.32
And I might even go farther and list these too.
.28
.29
.30
.31
.32
But that's just me. -
My main question is a very basic exporting question, but here is a super-condensed explanation of my big-picture goal for context:
Large (~450 MB) aiff on CD --> trim w/ Quicktime --> small (~16 MB) MP3 in iTunes
I would like to take an audio file (aiff) that is approximately 450 MB and export it from Quicktime and in doing so, reduce the file size and convert it to MP3. When I simply try to export it, it doesn't ask me about what size I want, nor does it give the option of MP3 formatting.
I have figured out how to reach my goal, but it's a mess. After I make my trims in QT, I have to:
1. select "share" instead of "export".
2. It asks me what size I want and I select small.
3. The file is then exported as a Quicktime movie into Mail and the size is reduced from 450 MB to about 20 MB.
4. I then have to "right-click" on the attachment in the email that is created,
5. save the attachment,
6. discard the email,
7. import the file into iTunes, and
8. create an MP3 in iTunes to finally arrive at my goal.
This seems like a ridiculously convoluted process to change a large aiff to a small MP3 and put it in iTunes. Any suggestions?Thanks. I guess the basic answer to my question is that it can't be done in one or two fell swoops. The problem is that it starts on a burned disc, and I need to make edits to it before it ends up in iTunes (to be eventually used in iWeb). I was hoping to avoid juggling back and forth between iTunes and QT. I either would have to send it back to QT to do the edits after -->iTunes-->mp3, or import the large file from the CD to QT, make the edits, save changes, import large file to iTunes, convert to mp3.

Basic Menu Button, Background, and a:hover question
Yes, I'm probably the newest DW CS3 person on this forum.
I've looked at many of the forum entries and haven't found what I'm
looking for...sorry.
I'm building a menu bar and would like the entire background
image for the button to show up when the mouse is hovering over the
menu list item. When I hover, the background only fills the space
behind the text and not the full button size. I've tried combining
Rollover Image but the Original and Rollover images are always
skewed one way or the other. There must be a fairly easy solution
but I haven't found it. Yes, I've ordered The Missing Manual for
DWCS3 and have viewed Total Training, but of course, there's much
much more to learn.
I actually did build a working menu with 8 items using nice
3-d images from Fireworks. Each button was a custom image with the
menu item included (like Home or Contact Us), which drastically
increased my web size. I'm at 625k with just the template layout so
far, no content or other images in the editable area. This seems
too large and so I feel I need to scale back my graphics and reduce
color palets, including the buttons for the menu. This is why I'm
here...to learn.
Your assistance is greatly appreciated,

InDesign CS3 basic setting question
I just upgraded this weekend and cannot find the preference or setting that allows me to 'show all menu items' without having to click on them. Under every menu and sub-menu item there is an entry for 'show all menu items.' I'd like all the lists to be fully expanded if that is possible.
Thanks in advance for pointing me in right direction on such a basic question.

Sorry for the basic question, but what I am trying to figure
out is the best way to do something. I have a main table and I want
to insert a table into it for a nav bar about 1/4 of the way down
on the main table. I am wondering which of these 3 ways to "best"
do it, all 3 I have played with do but I am wondering the best way:
1 - place it to align at the top and hit the return key
before until is down to where I want it
2 - place a empty table above it and make the height of it an
amount to push the nav bar table down to where I want it
3 - place it to center align and then use a margin on the
bottom to push it up to where I want it

Definately NO

Height is invalid so NO

Nearly. Why don't you align it to the top and use a top
margin to push
it down....that's more logical.

Basic CSS question. New learner
I am just learning CSS and HTML and I have a basic question. How can I make my float left div's expand down for content? I have a wrapper and within my wrapper I have 3 columns all floated left with margins added to them, I ommited height so that my columns can expand as I add stuff to it. I have content on my columns, but instead of wrapping the content down as I add...the div's are expanding and dropping below each other because there is no space for them. I tried clearing, but I am not sure I understand the clear property well so I stuck "none" in there for now. Here is my HTML and CSS:
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="head"></div>
<div id="slideshow"></div>
<div id="menu"></div>

This is what I am seeing on my display in Dreamweaver. As you can see, these rectangular elements are my div's. They are supposed to line up side by side, but my "content" isn't filling my div's properly, but rather expanding them causing my div's to drop down below each other.
Thanks for any input.It would be much easier to advise you if you could post a URL for a site or page.
Height and CSS is a bit of mystery to me but the most simple principle is that content is the way to give an element height. There are ways around it and you might like to Google "Faux Columns CSS" or something like it. The principle is that you construct an image that is a slim band of color that align with your intended columns. You apply that image as a background in you CSS and set it to repeat down the page. Then as your content grows or differs the graphic takes care of that.
There are other ways such as using positioning and javascript but they are more complicated.

I have very basic question: I connect to my home network wirelessly with a linksys router and cable modem. But the speed is very slow. If I turn off airport and connect to the router, the connection is about twice as fast as using airport. I've had my mac about two years, and maybe I need to update the software or hard ware, but don't know what I need.
When I looked online at the support page, it showed actual hardware (looked like white routers, I guess), which I don't have. I presume I have the airport card, but I don't have a separate apple hardware thing like was shown on the apple site. so I don't really know WHAT I have. When I looked at the version on my airport menu, it showed airport version 427.1.1, firmware 429.6.0, extreme driver 405.1.0, admin util 420.31.0, setup 420.17.0
Can anybody help me?

With wireless, is it's hard to troubleshoot air. If your wireless connection is slower than your wired connection, I'd suggest starting with the router. How old is it? Is it possible that it is only 802.11b compliant? If so, you can get a new one that is 802.11g or even 11.n. now as the prices are dropping on those. I would log into it anyway and check the settings. If 802.11g is available and not selected, change it.
Are you in close range of the router when you are using wireless? Are other wireless devices connecting simultaneously? I guess it could be possible that wired takes priority over wireless in terms of how routers work, but I really don't have any idea. Maybe someone else knows about that. But as always with anything that isn't acting up to par, I would repair permissions, repair hard drive, (I don't even bother to verify, just repair) and if that doesn't fix it, then create a new user account, log in to it and compare with your regular user account.
Also the white hardware you saw on the support site, is either the airport extreme base station or express base station, which essentially is a router with print sharing and music sharing. To my knowledge, it has no firewall built in and costs way more than a plain wireless router which is easier to set up. In other words, you don't need one for your wireless connection.
