Can i add a special character i.e. arrows into a movie clip?

in imovie under edit it says special characters..i want to add some arrows to a video but not sure if  can..anyone know? thanks

you could 'abuse' a special character as ➔ ↪ ➪ ☞ to create a 'pointer' although iM has no free positionable 'Text' feature.
it's much easier to use the 'transparent png'-method discribed here, incl. some free pointers (and circles)  in many colors:

  • How can I add a dip to white at the beginning of a clip?

    How can I add a dip to white at the beginning of a clip?  I know where to find it on Pr, but I'm new to AE.  I have 2 clips that need to transition one to the other.  The first clip ends by dipping to white; therefore, I need to either dip to white at the beginning of the 2nd clip & line them up so they overlap well, OR I need to find a white transition to place between them like in Pr.

    Make a whote solid.  Animate its opacity from 0 to 100 and back again.
    You'll use couple-three layers -- no automatic transitions in AE.  That's what Premiere's for.

  • Can i add a visual effect to just a section of a clip and how do i do this?

    Can i add a visual effect to just a section of a clip and how do i do this?

    Here is how I would do it.
    1) Drag the clip into your project, if it isn't already.
    2) Select those frames that you want to apply the effect by dragging. They should be enclosed in a yellow border.
    3) Right click within this yellow border and select "Split Clip"
    4) You can now apply the effect to this section.

  • How can I load an external SWF into a movie clip that's inside other movie clip?

    Hi.
    I creating my first flash (actionscript 3.0) website but I'm
    stuck with a visual effect I want to create.
    I have a window on my website called contentWindow. Every
    time you click a button this window is supposed to leave the stage,
    load the requested content and return to the stage.
    The sliding window is a movie clip with 83 frames, 21 to
    enter the stage, 21 to leave the stage again, 20 for nothing (its
    just to simulate the loading time) and 21 to return to the stage.
    Now my goal is, when the user clicks on a navigation button,
    the window exits the stage, loads an external SWF with the content,
    and then returns to the stage.
    I've the "window" movie clip with an instance name of
    "contentWindow". Inside there is another movie clip with an
    instance name of "contentLoader". The content that the user
    requested should appear inside the "contentLoader".
    Now, when the contentWindow leaves the stage, I get this
    error message:
    quote:
    TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of
    a null object reference.
    at rwd_fla::MainTimeline/trigger()
    If I switch
    "contentWindow.contentLoader.addChild(navLoader);" for
    "contentWindow.addChild(navLoader);" it works fine, but the
    external SWF doesn't move with the window.
    How can I load an external SWF into a movie clip that's
    inside other movie clip?

    Hi,
    Recently, I have been putting together a flash presentation.
    And I am just wondering if the following might help you, in your
    communication with the said swf file:
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
    onComplete);
    function onComplete(event:Event):void
    event.target.content.thinggy_mc.y -= 100;
    Not the best example, but this allows you to target a mc
    within an external swf file. I think if you look up this code, you
    will have an answer ;)
    Kind Regards,

  • How can I replace the Special Character        '

    Hi Guru ,
    I want replace one Special Chareacter into space .
    Example -
    There have one variable .
    L_VAR = BANGA'LORE
    I want to delete the special character ( ' ) which is between A and L .
    Whenever I am tryiny to use replcae statement , it will show one Error Message .
    REPLACE ''' IN L_VAR WITH ' '.
    IT WILL GIVE ONE ERROR MESSAGE - " Literals that take up more than one line are not permitted."
    How Can I replace this .

    Hi Tarak Dey,
    This error
    Literals that take up more than one line are not permitted
    is not for the Replace statement. You would have missed a PERIOD in some statement before this.
    When we see the code that you have pasted,
    L_VAR = BANGA'LORE
    here period is missing at the end of the line. The error could be because of that.
    Kindly check.
    Best Regards,
    Ram.

    I had the same problem here and the only solution I found, was to turn of the validation using the setValidationMode member function of ClassGenerator.

  • Add a second chapter menu page when using individual movie clips

    Hello!
    I have imported about 20 short movie clips in iDVD and want them to be displayed in a chapter menu. But if I create a submenu as a chapter menu, I can't find a way to add a second page to this particular chapter menu. Of course I can add a new submenu with chapter menu styles, but then I get an ugly folder button (i'm using the white reflection style) and not a rightwards arrow on the submenu page that links to the second submenu page. If I add a Movie with 20 chapters, I get several submenu pages with left and rightwards arrows to navigate through them. Is there a way to get this effect with seperate clips? I don't want to join the 20 clips to one with chapters, because I want iDVD to return to the menu after playing each clip.
    Thanks in advance!

    How long is your longest of the 20 or so movies you want to put in? One trick you might be able to use is to add a lot of chapters to that one movie to create a couple/few "scene selection" pages in iDVD. Add that movie to iDVD and the pages will be created.
    Now add your other shorts. You can cut and paste between menus, so cut them from the main menu and drop them into the scene selection menus.
    The chapters from your long movie can be selected and deleted, leaving only the short movies on those pages. Keep in mind that you are only removing the chapters from the menus. Those chapters will still exist in the movie itself so when someone is playing the movie and hit the chapter forward or back button on the remote, it will jump to the next chapter. But that might be fine.

  • Can I make a special character appear when typing?

    Hi everybody.
    I have a form with a text field provided with a validation script, which allows the user only to enter values in the format 999999-9999. The script is places on the exit event.
    var myRegex = /\d{6}\-\d{4}/;
    var
    singleDigits = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9];
    If the format is not correct, the user will get an error-message.
    Now I would like the hyphen to appear automatically when typing. That means when the user has typed 123456 it will display as 123456-, ready to enter the last four characters.
    Is that possible.
    Kirstine
    P.S. I know I can make that (almost) happen if I make the field a numeric field, but for several reasons this is not an option.

    Here is a little script that can do what you are looking for..
    Place the script in the Change event of the Text Field and set the Max chars property to 11 for the Text Field.
    // restrict entry to digits and a dash
    if (xfa.event.change.match(/[0-9\-]/) == null)
        xfa.event.change = "";
    // Allow the hyphen at the 7th character only
    if (xfa.event.change == "-" && xfa.event.selEnd != 6)
        xfa.event.change = "";
    // If the 7th character is a digit, and they're typing at the end, insert the hyphen
    if (xfa.event.change.match(/[0-9]/) != null &&
        xfa.event.newText.length == 7 &&
        xfa.event.selEnd == 6) 
        xfa.event.change = "-" + xfa.event.change;
    // don't allow any characters past 10 (11 with a hyphen)
    var vMax = 10;
    if (xfa.event.newText.indexOf("-") != -1)
        vMax = 11;
    Thanks

  • Can I make a special character appear when typing? (Part 2)

    Hi there
    I am now working on an extended version of the issue describes in this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3147856#3147856
    The new field should hold digits in the format 9999-99999-99999-99, and I would like the hyphens to appear automatically when typing. I tried to modify the script I used before, but I can't get it to work properly. Can someone tell me, what I'm doing wrong?
    My modified script looks this way:
    if (xfa.event.change.match(/[0-9\-]/) == null)
        xfa.event.change = "";
    if (xfa.event.change == "-" && xfa.event.selEnd != 4)
        xfa.event.change = "";
    if (xfa.event.change.match(/[0-9]/) != null &&
        xfa.event.newText.length == 5 &&
        xfa.event.selEnd == 4)
    if (xfa.event.change == "-" && xfa.event.selEnd != 10)
        xfa.event.change = "";
    if (xfa.event.change.match(/[0-9]/) != null &&
        xfa.event.newText.length == 11 &&
        xfa.event.selEnd == 10)
    if (xfa.event.change == "-" && xfa.event.selEnd != 16)
        xfa.event.change = "";
    if (xfa.event.change.match(/[0-9]/) != null &&
        xfa.event.newText.length == 17 &&
        xfa.event.selEnd == 16)
        xfa.event.change = "-" + xfa.event.change; } 
        var vMax = 16; if (xfa.event.newText.indexOf("-") != -3)
        vMax = 19;
    But it only makes the hyphen at 17th character appear automatically.
    I hope to hear from you.

  • How can I add media from an external hard drive into Premiere Elements? Please answer.

    Alright, so I have looked all over the website and the way adobe's frequently asked questions about adding media did nothing for me. I am editing a large full length video in premiere elements 13 and so I would like to add media from my external hard drive and edit from that location. Is that possible? Because I do not have enough space on my laptop to keep hundreds and hundreds of GB of videos on my internal hard drive. I have looked on how to add media from the hard drive location and adobe says to add it using the files and folders tab, but when I select it to add it, it says I need to use the Video Importer. So I go to use the video importer and have no way of figuring out how to select my hard drive. Any ideas?

    Spencer WhiteOut
    Thank you for the follow up with the information
    it is a MacBook pro retina . OS X Operating system. External hard drive is connected by the USB cable. fat32.
    It is my understanding, whether you have Premiere Elements on Windows or Mac, if you have files on an external hard drive,  you do not select
    Add Media and head for a choice that includes Video Importer. Instead, you select Add Media/Files and Folders and navigate to the external hard drive to select your file(s) for import into the project.
    But, you seem to be saying that when you do you are met with a message to use the Video Importer. Does the message give you any other related information on why you are being detoured to Video Importer since Video Importer does not import from an external hard drive for me or you. It does for me using Add Media to get the files from my external hard drive into a project.  I am strictly an Elements Windows user, so my Mac information is from what I have read. Based on that...
    1. Please evaluate the format of your external hard drive. Please review the following if you have not considered this point before.
    http://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-set-up-an-external-hard-drive-for-use-with-os-x/
    There are many online articles on this matter which would point you away from Fat32 as the format for a external hard drive Mac.
    2. From what you wrote, you are not dealing with a DVD drive so I see no way to implicate one of them in this issue. You are dealing with an
    USB external hard drive and not a USB external DVD/CD drive. Correct?
    Please review and consider.
    We will be watch for further news from you.
    Thank you.

  • How can I check the progress of a Loader from within a movie clip?

    Hi All,
    I have a Loader called profileContentLoader that I create in AS3 on the main timeline, I would like to check the bytesLoaded of profileContentLoader from within a movieclip thats in another movieclip....
    I tried:
    MovieClip(root).profileContentLoader.bytesLoaded
    but that doesn't work....
    Thanks for any help

    The Loader class uses a LoaderInfo class object to do its loading event informational bidding.  Look into the contentLoaderInfo property of the Loader class and then followup looking at the LoaderInfo class to see what you can make use of from it.

    there was an option (looping) in CS5 but how can i do it in CC and CS6?

    shape tweening can only be applied to raw drawn shapes, no movieclips.  IF you wanted to do a shape tween to a movieclip it would have to be done within the timeline in the movieclip.
