Can I adjust the screen size w/o causing playhead to jump and reposition?

I have been used to Ableton Live, that lets you adjust the size of the screen on the fly WITHOUT causing the playhead to jump and reposition itself. Does anybody know what I mean? This may seem like a small thing or hard to understand concept, but it's the most simple of behaviors that I find hard to adjust to in Logic. I am committed to learning all the ins and outs of the program, and have already started to migrate over. It would be helpful if someone could let me know if there is something I can do to approximate what I can do in Live.
Thanks a million.

Hi treetopstudio. I'm pretty sure what you're describing is the need to zoom in and out of the arrange view so that you can see upclose what is happening or have a view of all the tracks if needed. I've not used live much so cant really comment on the process involved using this program. If I use live and I need to zoom in or out I simply click and drag on the timeline.
In logic I use zoom key commands for doing such a thing. I found this pretty easy to master and use them all the time.
The default for this (on my imac) is the command key plus one of the arrows (up, down, left & right).
You can also hold down the alt key and use the scroll ball (if your mouse has one) for doing this but I find the keys far better.
There are most definately other options available too but this works fine for me.
Hope this helps

How can I adjust the font size of my printouts?

I have an HP Officejet 4500 all-in-one printer and a new HP pavilion Slimline computer. Since I changed to this computer, my printouts have very small font size making them hard to read. How can I adjust the font size of the printout? Is it a computer or printer function? I appreciate the help.

I, too, am frustrated. This seems like something that would easily be handled within the application software. However, none of the fixes I've been offered have been very helpful. My cousin sugested using Control C and Control V to move the text to WORD. Once in WORD, you can manipulate the text on a WORD page...sometimes. I've had good and bad luck with this method. It still requires working in two different programs to get it legible. Does anyone else have a 4500 All-in -one with this problem, or is it only me? Thanks, [Edited for Personal Information]

How can I adjust the font size in iTunes 11?

How can I adjust the font size in iTunes 11? Specifically, when in Artist view both the text in the sidebar and the track listing are huge.

How to change fontsize in iTunes
Take an XML-Editor and open:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\de.lproj\TextStyles.plist"
For other languages change your country code (de, en, fr, pl ...).
Example for english: "\en.lproj\TextStyles.plist".
Backup this File !!!
To change the Text-Size, change the integer value of the following item:
"<key>size</key>"
"<integer>8</integer>"
This means Text-Size 8
"<key>size</key>"
"<integer>12</integer>"
This means Text-Size 12
To change the font, change the integer value of the following item:
<key>font</key>
<string>Arial</string>
This means the font changes to Arial
This also works:
<key>italic</key>
<true/>
<key>bold</key>
<true/>
<key>underline</key>
<true/>

How can I adjust the font size, etc., when completing a PDF form in Preview?

I would like to use Preview to fill-out or complete a PDF form. The default font that Preview uses when I begin typing in a field is too large. How can I adjust the font size. And while I'm asking, can I also adjust the font color, weight, emphasis, etc.?

Whilst in the Preview application, press "Shift - Command - A" (⇧⌘A) simultaneously to show the markup toolbar, or click View, and select "show markup toolbar". There is an icon "A" near the right hand side of the now visible markup toolbar, click this icon to reveal all the font options.

I need to adjust the screen size but i cannot find where at

Can anyone help me out, i am done with my video but i realize too late that the screen size is really weird, large and not tall at all

Sorry, I can't translate since your title is in English and the translator won't apparently do the rest. I am guessing in my answer. Adobe used to have the Distiller Server, but I think that has been discontinued. Distiller normally comes as part of Acrobat. To install Distiller, you would simply install Acrobat. If you have Acrobat installed and for some reason Distiller is not showing up, try opening Acrobat and go to Help>Repair. It is a good idea to do the updates also.
If you need more info, please give the software version that you have and name, along with the OS. Also it appears you may have to post in English since the translator will not work. You might create a version in your language and use https://translate.google.com/ to translate and copy to the forum.

The display on my screen has become too big. I've tried adjusting the screen size and the zoom isn't set. Can anyone help?

I have an iMAC 7.1 running OS X 10.6.8.
The display has become too big for the screen. I've looked at the zoom and it is turned off. I've tried adjusting the pixel setting (currently 1920 * 1200) to no effect.
The bar at the top of the screen is elongated, and I can't see the time in the top right hand corner.
This is affecting everything I lookmat, the dock in the bottom doesn't show until I bring the mouse down (hide dock is off).
I have no idea what caused this and I can't fix it.
Does anyone have idea what the problem is and how to fix it?
ANy help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

No wheel, it's a magic mouse.
Tried safe start. No difference.
The dock and the icons are off the bottom of the screen.
I I have finder open and move the cursor to the right to show the time, I lose finder / file /edit from the overhead banner.
Still no closer to solving it.

HT3805 How can I adjust the pixel size of a photo

I wish to upload pictures to a site and they have requested min size 40 x 40 max size 200 x 200 I assume this is pixel size but can find no way of doing this in Aperture.
Surely this is a common enough request?

Use the file export command (Shift-Command-E), adjust the size to whatever you want.
You can make your own preset by pressing the + sign on the lower left corner.
If you forget any of this, just use Apertures Help screen:

Can you adjust the Sample Size in LR?

In Photoshop, you can set the size of the eyedropper to sample a single pixel, 3x3 average of 9 pixels, 5x5, 11x11, etc. It can make a big difference when sampling a single pixel as opposed to the average of a larger area.
Can the sample size be set in LightRoom?
If not, what is the sample size in LR when you run your cursor over the image? Does this vary depending on the displayed magnification of the image?
Thanks,
Lou Dina

White Balance and the Color Sampler are not the same unless things have changed. White Balance is always 5x5 image pixels while the Color Sampler is 5x5 screen pixels. Therefore, one can increase the
accuracy of the color sampler by zooming in beyond 1:1. In the case of White Balance, I don’t think that’s true, again, unless that's been recently changed. Yes, kind of confusing. Bottom line though, zoom in to do precise work.

TS3274 Can't reduce the screen size on my iPad Gwen I use my ymail account.

When I open my ymail account, the screen is too big. The font is huge. This does not happen on my gmail account. How do I fix it?

Same problem for me.
1. Cannot connect to wifi as icloud password pop up keeps appearing.
2. tried deleting account. UNable to do so.
3. tried resetting password by logging into apple id through desktop as mentioned in one of the responses in another thread. Unfortunately the apple id to be reset is the same as being prompted by icloud and hence unable to reset the same.
Feel like breaking the **** ipad into bits. Stupid of apple to let such a bug in and not offer support !!

Can i split the screen to where it shows 2,4,6,and 8 of the video?

I want to be able to split the screen to show multiple shots of the video at once. Like the four-shot camera on photo booth, but all of the same video. Is this possible? If so, how? Thanks.

Hi
No and Yes
No - There is no standard (included) tool to do this and from iMovie'08 - 11 - Plug-ins can NOT be used at all
Yes - by use of Picture in Picture and add one field at a time - I do
• Start a New Project to prepare this speific sequence
• Add first Picture
• Export this as a full quality QuickTime .mov
• Import this and put it into a NEW Project
• add next field (Picture in Picture)
• Export
• Import
and repeat this till Your complex sequence is done.
alt. is to prepare this sequence in QuickTime Pro and here You have 99 video tracks that can be run in paralell. But this demands a very carefull plan to be kept to 100% - to be a good result.

How can I reduce the image size (how to use "Steps X, Y" and "ROI")?

I upgraded Labview (and NI-DAQ) from 5.X to 7 Express (and NI-DAQ 7). That seems to make PCI_IMAQ1411 to malfunction. I could move ROI and reduce the size by changing "ROI and Step X and Y" of NI_Snap.vi. All of a sudden, IMAQ started not to work properly even under the same code and device. Only difference is LabView and NI-DAQ version. Could you help me working IMAQ1411 under the upgraded LabVIEW and NI-DAQ?
Thanks, Grace

Dear Dcoutri
Thank you for your reply.
(1) The version I have on my computer is IMAQ 2.5.7 which has been installed together with NI-DAQ 7 when I install the LabView Express 7. It is strange that I cannot find the version on "DownLoad site".
(2) You said that Imaq 3.0 does not support Step X, Y function. So you recommend that Imaq 2.5.5 is rather proper one. Then how about Imaq 2.6.1 (2.6). Does that support Step X, Y function?
(3) Using Imaq 3.0, how can one scale down an image?
Thanks, Hyun

Hi
Download the latest driver from Toshiba EU driver page.
Now uninstall the preinstalled driver in device manager (in device manager choose graphic card AMD/ATI and then choose uninstall driver).
After new reboot I recommend installing the driver from Toshiba page.
