Blur when not in focus

I'm not that great with Actionscript 3.0, so naturally I have an hurdle to leap.
I using the 3D Carousel from flashcomponents.net and I need to figure out how to get the images blur when they are not the front focal on the Carousel. I tried an onRelease (which works to un-blur it), but I didn't know what else to pair it with so when I click on another object it blurs and goes to the back. I don't want it to blur when I roll off, only when another object is clicked.
J

to the filter's property of your carousel items assign an array with a blurfilter, until it reaches the front when you assign an array with a null element (assuming you have no other filters assigned to your carousel items).

  • Mail "New Message" window retreats to background after drag and drop attachment from Finder to Mail "New Message", click, and Finder window stays in foreground even when not in focus

    Hi, I'm surprised I can't quickly find if anyone else is having this issue. For me it has been going on since Lion on my 13" MacBook Pro 2011 and it's still persisting in Mavericks, and even still now that I've "downgraded" to a 15" MacBook Pro 2010 with Mavericks.  The behavior is odd and difficult to explain concisely. Basically, when I want to add an attachment to Mail, I'll Cmd+Tab over to Finder click and drag and Cmd+Tab back to Mail, and drop the attachment. At first it looks fine, but when I click in the New Message window where I just dropped the attachment, to move the cursor, it retreats to the background and the Mail Main Window comes to the foreground. Then, if I click on that, the Finder window that I just used comes to the foreground. Sometimes if I switched to another app before going to Finder to select the drag and drop, that other app window will appear in the foreground instead. If I click on the other app window that is now in the foreground, then the Finder window that was last used will come to the foreground. The only thing that seems to fix this switch-a-roo effect is Cmd+Tab-ing back and forth a few times, or click on the window "frame" at the top to move the window around.
    The way to prevent this is to have my Mail Message window visible in the foreground side by side with the Finder window when the drag and drop occurs (this is a tedious extra step if mulitple windows are open, or to use the add attachment command in the menu within Mail. But it sure is annoying buggy behavior.
    Thanks

    Yep, I get exactly the same thing when using Thunderbird mail client on my 2011 iMac running Lion. I've been putting up with it for at least a year, maybe longer.
    For me it appeared to start after a Thunderbird update, so I figured that was the cause and couldn't find a solution at the time. However I've now noticed it starting to happen in Apple Motion 4 when dragging files from Finder into a DropZone in my animations. Motion remains the active program but the Finder window sits on top until I Cmd-tab out to a third open program (ie not Finder) and back to Motion again.
    This is the first indicator I've had that it's an OS X issue.
    Be great to find a solution as D&D is by far my preferred way of adding attachments to emails and similar tasks.

  • TS4436 hi, when zooming in to capture still images, the image is really blurred and out of focus. is this a hardware issue and is there any solution for this?? or is my device faulty?

    hi, when zooming in to capture still images, the image is really blurred and out of focus. is this a hardware issue and is there any solution for this?? or is my device faulty?

    If you are using the iPhone camera zoom then remember that this is a digital zoom not an optical zoom. The zoomed in area will have fewer pixels and not appear as clear. The more you zoom the worse it gets. It's like cropping a picture after it has been taken.

  • New features, e.g., blur path and select focus, are not showing up in my PS drop down menus

    Although I've downloaded the CC PS 2014 updates the new features, e.g., blur path and select focus, are not showing up in my PS drop down menus - anybody know why and what I need to do?
    <moved from downloading,installing,setting up - kglad>

    Are you sure you understand the Cloud License concept?
    You are entitled to keep Photoshop CC and install Photoshop CC 2014, so CC 2014 is not connected with additional costs and the time it takes to install the new version of Photoshop should not be that much of a imposition, should it?

  • How to listen for key press when air app does not have focus

    Hi,
    I am developing a application in air and part of the functionality I need is the ability for the app to listen for when a specific key is pressed, even when the air app does not have focus.
    Is there support for this for windows or mac? If not, how might this be accomplished? ANE?    

    Ok Mr. Smartass...Ok
    I'm building a browser that is always open, and when
    a user presses Ctrl+F1 (notice, just those two keys,
    I don't care what else they press...) the browser
    will open up. That way, you don't have to wait for it
    to load all the time.You have two ideas here. One is having a universal key map that always gets ctrl-f1 sent to your app. The other is a program that is constantly running so that you don't have to wait for it to open up. The former is not possible (and this is a good thing) As warneria and I have been saying, it is bad design for an app to try to force an OS to implement this kind of feature.

  • Creative cloud photoshop blur tool not work as it should be

    creative cloud photoshop blur tool not work as it should be !
    I go to blur a painting i am doing and it does not blur enough and I am using wacom Intuos 5 med pen tablet.
    and I even set the tablets sensitivty for pressure lower then default and still not getting the blur tool to do its job.
    I even adjusted the brush settings too to be able to blur even more on hard settings, still nothing.
    at least it not bluring enough to see any major changes.
    the only way i can blur anything is by using the fliters blur or the brushes ( mixer brush ) settings to mix colors and do it that way.
    (note) I will not post my systems specs sorry I don't do that and even the tech from adobe said I do not have to. and so I wont !
    just need advise not to share system specs.
    and thats what this forums board is for getting advice and read what others say about the issue at hand.
    it's not to post or share system specs  !!!
    so with that out of the way I need advice only please ?

    Hi,
    It might be your image is too big in terms of pixel dimensions for the blur tool to work well.
    If you zoom to 100% do you see any change when using the blur tool?
    What are the pixel dimensions of the image?
    (Image>Image Size)
    If you try a small image, does the blur tool work?
    What about when you use the mouse instead of your tablet?
    Can you at least tell us what operating system and version of photoshop your using?

  • Images become blurred when placed in a PSD document

    I have a QCODE (barcode) which is a 2-bit pure black and white images.
    However, when I place it in another open document, the image becomes blurred when it is placed and the definition of the QCODE is compromised.
    How can I stop PS from blurring the image.
    I'm guessing it is trying to smooth out the placed image, but i don't want this.
    Many thanks.

    but i don't want this.
    Place it pixel exact! Resampling means the image is placed at sub-pixel values. Aside from that you would also get softness if the image is not properly converted to the target color space and automatic conversion creates mix colors whose individual components blend differently with neighboring pixels, which in part is simply an artifact of on-screen simulation. In any case, you will only be able to get a proper barcode in CMYK/ Duotone/ Multichannel modes, where you can make sure it appears on the spot black ink separation so it does not get halftoned and loses its sharpness again. ideally it would even be native vector data...

  • All contacts appear to be offline, when not.

    Hi, I´m running iChat on a MacBook Pro with latert version of Lion. When set up the account I used my @me account, the set up a second account @gmail. For some reason when I try to contact a friend from my address book, says that they are offline, when not. I deleted the gmail account to see if working thru AIM/Jabber was the problem. But still have the same issue.
    Help!

    Hi,
    I will try to explain this another way.
    iChat can join or rather use several of the Instant Messages Service that are out there.
    When iChat was created it could only join the AIM service and Apple made and Agreement with AIM that the Apple IDs ending @mac.com were recognised as valid AIM names.
    Later when Apple changed to MobileMe @me.com ending names were added to the Agreement.
    This means you can have an AIM Name or an Apple ID ending in @mac.com or @me.com and you can add Buddies to that Buddy List that have those same type names.
    In this Pic I have changed My Buddy list to show Screen Names only (and then edited those)
    I have indicated one of each type of name that is valid with this Buddy List.
    The AIM registration page is here
    The Main part looks like this
    Uploaded with Skitch!
    You can enter the "Username" part or you can enter any other email you have.
    This way it is possible that you can have a Buddy with an @yahoo.com name as an AIM Buddy as in your later pic.
    There is another way.  If they are on PCs then the latest version of AIM for PCs allows them to add GoogleTalk and FaceBook Buddies. The Mac Version also seems to do this now.
    It also seems that some of the Social Networking sites are also connecting up with other Instant Message Services.
    Jabber  (Google and Facebook included)
    The other main service that iChat can join is Jabber.
    It has been able to do this since iChat 3.
    The Names or IDs people have come from a range of Jabber Servers.
    People runnning those servers set them up so that they can contact other servers and by doing so provide a network.
    A person would join one of these servers and end up with an ID that was in the form of [email protected]  (so for an example I could set up the ID of ralph at a server called jabberchat.com and my ID in full would be [email protected])
    Very few servers also offer email services
    Most Jabber server need you to register via Jabber application.
    There are a couple of exceptions to this.
    Jabber Australia (http://www.jabber.org.au/) allows you to register via a Web Browser.
    Both Google and Facebook allow you to Enable Talk or Chat on the account settings there and then use the name in a Jabber able application.
    Google do not stick to the naming format that every other Jabber Server does.
    They call their jabber Server talk.google.com whilst a ID from there is your Googlemail ID.
    This means that in iChat you have ot set up a Google Buddy list differently or at least separately to account for this.
    In iChat 3 this was a Manual change  (Specific iChat 3 Instructions)
    So....
    Buddy Names  and IDs can look like emails (in some cases they are email addresses as well)
    In  most cases these names and IDs can only be used with one service although that is becoming more and more blurred.
    I have not seen email addresses ending is ss or do or oa
    I would not tend to look at a Jabber server that was not using English so I also don't know of any jabber servers that end with those letters.
    Although this is a very small list it does not seem to list any Servers with those Endings
    This would appear to indicate that you added what were random email addresses to your Google List.
    AS Yahoo names would not normally appear in an AIM (@me.com) list I suggest you have done the same there.

  • Windows not gaining focus...

    Hello!
    After recent update (I can't recall having this issue before) windows that previously had focus, but lost it after I opened a new window, do not gain focus after I close the new window. This is very irritating, because now I have to click on the old window all the time, even though it is the top window, to give commands to it.
    The same thing happens also when switching spaces - if I have a window with focus in one space, quickly switch to another to check something (without clicking anywhere) and then go back to the first one, I have to click in the window otherwise I can't write or send commands to it. Even though the cursor is in the window and blinking as if it had focus (if it is an input field).
    A concrete example:
    I am writing this text in Firefox in a textbox on a webpage. I switch spaces forth and back. The cursor is still in the textbox and blinking, but whatever I press nothing happens. Firefox is still the active application (it has the menubar).
    I've tried searching, but wasn't lucky to find anything, is it just me?
    BR,
    stormmind

    It work well in my system. Either on appletview and browser.

  • Word docs blur when I scroll on 20" connected to powerbook

    It's hard to know who to ask about this one, because I can't tell what is to blame. But when I plug my 20" cinema display into my powerbook's DVI port, and then move a Microsoft Word doc over onto the 20", it gives me a chopped-word effect when I scroll around in the document, and I can't see any of it. I can put any other application window over there without blurring, but not Word. Perhaps this means it's Word's fault, but could someone weigh in here?

    Hi Chris:
    I just posted today a similar problem with MS Word/Office 2004. If I select to display two pages up, side by side, and edit the left hand page, I get a failure to refresh on the right hand page. What shows on the display is after editing the left page, I see duplicate lines of characters on the right page as the the text moved up or down but did not erase and refresh the prior line. Same effects on both ACD23 and PB display. I can get it to refresh by highlighting the text that was not erased. Did not find any reference on the MS web site. Did you find out what is causing this?

  • Still images blurred when playing

    I am editing a sequence of still images in FCE. The images are sharp when playhead is stopped, but show a slight blur when playhead is moving...what's causing this? How do you eliminate. The color of render line is green, btw. (i.e. doesn't need rendering).

    You know...my husband and I are doing this on an 5-yr-old machine. Once we rendered it looked weird at first, then resolved itself. The exported stuff looks fine to me...so I'm not going to obsess on this. Thanks...
