Can I create default sequence settings?

Hi,
Is it possible to create a default setting for new sequences instead of manually having to set it up.
For example I like my timelines to be fully expanded with the display set to show all frames etc.
It would be great if there was a way to always open a new sequence this way.
Brian

What I have done, for some "standard" editing jobs here, is to create an empty Project with Sequences set up, with just the Tracks, Bins, etc., as I like them, and then Save that layout as a "template." I just Open one of those templates, and immediately do a Save_As for the new Project that I am starting. I also have those PRPROJ (Project) files hidden away, in case I forget the Save_As step. I then just Import the unique Assets, and edit away. Now, not every display aspect will be exactly as I might like it, but 95% of the work is done for me.
Good luck,
Hunt

Can I import (or create) default Lightroom settings from an existing document?

Can I import (or create) default Lightroom settings from an existing document and save them? Make them a personal default set opening with all future LR catalogs?

Thank you, John. That brings up the question: How to build a template?
BTW, I'm not trying to duplicate a catalog; moving it to a larger drive. When opening the newly moved catalog in LR, my former settings (identity plate, defaults, etc.) didn't migrate, though I copied the LR settings folder and its contents into the new location (drive) and opened my develop presets.

Can't Create New Sequence

FCS2 Upgraded and updated yesterday.
For some reason starting today I can't create new sequences. New Sequence doesn't make a new sequence in any of the bins (but doesn't crash - just nothing happens), whether from the File menu or right-clicking in a bin.
Importing XML (from Color or even via Color > Send to FCP) doesn't create a sequence either.
Creating a new project gives me an empty project, with no sequences in it either.
Anyone?

And, as always, FCP Rescue can make backing up or trashing your preferences nice and easy.

Once you've got a functioning preference set, you can back it up to restore later in case this happens again.

Can't create a sequence within a pl/sql block with execute immediate.

Hi All. I created a user and granted it the 'create sequence' privilege though a role. In a pl/sql block I try to create a sequence using 'execute immediate' but get a 1031-insufficient privileges error. If I grant create sequence directly to the user, the pl/sql block completes successfully. Can anyone explain this behavior? We're running 11.2 Enterprise Editon.
Thanks,
Mark

In a definer's rights stored procedure (the default), you only have access to privileges that have been granted directly, not via a role.
There are two basic reasons for that. First, roles can be enabled or disabled, default and non-default, password-protected, etc. so the set of roles a particular user actually has is session-specific. Oracle needs to know at compile time what privileges the owner of the procedure has. The only way to do that (without deferring the privilege check) is to ignore privileges granted through roles.
Second, since 99% of privilege management DBAs do involves granting and revoking roles, it's helpful that changing role privileges will never cause objects to be marked invalid and recompiled which can have side-effects on applications. DBAs only need to worry about causing problems on those rare cases where they are granting or revoking direct privileges to users.
You can create an invoker's rights stored procedure by adding the clause (AUTHID CURRENT_USER). That defer's the security check to run-time but allows the procedure to see privileges granted through roles in the current session. But that means that the caller of the procedure would need to have the CREATE SEQUENCE privilege through the role, not the owner of the procedure.
And just to make the point, dynamic object creation in PL/SQL is almost always a red flag that there is something problematic in your design. If you are creating sequences dynamically, that means that you'd have to refer to them dynamically throughout your code which means that your inserts would need to use dynamic SQL. That's not a particularly easy or safe way to develop code.

Can i create a sequence using java?

Hi,
I have a problem here.
I have to update records to my oracle9i database.
One of the fields in my tables has to be auto number, meaning whenever i add records to this table, this fields will automatically be updated jus like a counter.
I am told that i could do this by writing a sequence. can any1 help me out?
Thanks a million!

To create a sequence in Oracle you can use this (with SCHEMA being replaced by whatever Schema that you are adding the Sequence to)...
CREATE SEQUENCE SCHEMA.SEQUENCEGENERATOR
START WITH 1 INCREMENT BY 1 MINVALUE 1 CACHE 20 NOCYCLE NOORDER ;
From a stored procedure or java code you could
then use the following to get the next available number
SELECT SEQUENCEGENERATOR.nextval INTO v_record_id from dual;
This may or may not work for your needs. Everytime the Select statement is executed a number will be "used". As an alternative you could use something like .... Select Max(number) from Table (this could be table that contains your "auto number" or a seperate support table.

Can I create default font attributes in mail like on the Mac?

Is there any way to create default font attribute on the iPad for Mail specify, but anything else as well? I haven't been able to find a thing.
Thanks,
Darryl

I guss you figured it out, but I already did the screen shots, so I'll post anyway.
Once you have your simple font templates created, it's just 3 clicks and a select away ( okay 5 clicks total ).
Here it is in screen shots:

Create default user settings like WIndows XP

When I configure a Windows machine I can make the desktop and all application settings I want. I then copy the profile to the DEFAULT USER account. Now when any user is created on that machine it takes on all the same settings as the default account.
This allows me to set proxy settings in all browsers, setup printers, backgrounds, and other other preferences. the new account gets these settings on creation.
How do I do this on the macintosh? When it creates a new user they all look the same so there must be some plist files or settings somewhere I can change when I build the image.
We have 850+ machines running 10.4 through 10.6. We use a firewall in transparent mode because the mac's cant handle the proxy settings with all the roaming profiles and home/synced accounts.
If I can get all new accounts created to take on the necessary settings by default we can switch our firewall to non transparent and that opens up a lot of features we must have. Plus it would be nice to have the same look and feel on every single account.

/System/Library/User Template is where all of these are stored. You will have enable the root login account and log in to it in order to make changes to that folder with the GUI.
Changing anything in the System folder is always a bit unreliable, though. Apple might release a software update that will undo any of the changes.
If you really are managing 850+ Macs, you should look into getting OS X Server. OS X Server has the tools you need to set up custom templates for new users, without having to muck in the System folder.

How Can I Change Default Zoom Settings For Safari?

I just got my new iMac and hate the fact that everytime I open Safari everything is small and centered directly in the Safari screen. How can I change the default settings so it either zooms in more or is in a landscaped mode so I don't have two big white patches on the sides of my window?

The only way I know of, (and that I use) is as follows:
Open textedit and create a new document.
Add the following 3 lines to the file
body {
zoom: 175%
Save the file as "somename.css". I called mine defaultzoom.css and saved it in Documents.
In Safari go to Preferences | Advanced.
In the Style sheet: dropdown box choose "other" and browse to the location of your somename.css file.
That's it, now webpages will open with the default zoom level you used in the file (I use 175% but you need to tweak it for your screen size). Also, I do run into situations where some pages don't render correctly. If that happens you can go back to Safari | Preferences | Advanced and change the Style sheet dropdown box to none until you are done viewing that paticular website. Then just put it back when you are done.

Can we create default entry of operation/phase# in CORZ/CORS tranactions?

Hi,
I want to make field operation/phase to appear default while entering confirmation using CORZ and cancelling confirmation using CORS. Can you please let me know how this can be acheived? There are only 2 operations in master reciepe and would like to have operation#0020 to appear default while entering and cancel confirmation function.
Thanks in advance.
Nitin

The easiest way is to create transaction variant through SHD0 for CORZ and CORS to default some values for certain transaction.

Can not create a sequence inside procedure

I have a procedure like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE P_reset_Sequences AS
BEGIN
execute immediate '
DROP SEQUENCE ADMIN_AUTORESPONSES_SEQ';
execute immediate '
CREATE SEQUENCE ADMIN_AUTORESPONSES_SEQ
START WITH 1
INCREMENT BY 1
MINVALUE 1
NOCYCLE
NOCACHE
ORDER
END P_reset_Sequences;
When I execute this procedure to reset sequence ADMIN_AUTORESPONSES_SEQ, there an erro: insufficient privileges. But owner of this procedure has DBA privilege.
Pls, help me!

There are two reasons to reset a sequence in code.
You could run out of numbers or you think you can use sequences as a gap free counter.
Running out of numbers is a problem every [3,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 years|Re: What kind of transaction in procedure? or thereabouts.
Looking at the sequence definition with NOCACHE , ORDER and an INCREMENT by 1 it appears the OP mistakenly believes you can use a sequence as a gap free counter ignoring rollbacks, exceptions and shutdowns amongst other things, when all those setting have really done is [make the sequence as slow as possible|http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:6393918681776].

Sequence Settings for .mov clips from MPEG Streamclip

I'm converting some DVD clips (from old DVDs I created) that I exported to QT using MPEG Streamclip.
When I put them in the timeline sequence, I have to render everything.
Can I change the sequence settings to avoid this? And can I change the settings of a sequence that already has clips in it?
Thanks.

I set MPEG Streamclip QT Export to:
QT Apple DV/DVCPRO NTSC
Frame Size 720X480 (DV-NTSC)
Quality 100%
http://i44.tinypic.com/29zdhr9.png
I set FCP sequence:
Frame size 720X480 NTSC DV (3:2)
Compressor DV DVCPRO - NTSC
http://i44.tinypic.com/of3h8h.png
I still need to render. And the aspect ration looks squished in a bit. Like I've set something wrong.
What am I doing wrong? How should I change the settings:

Import QTS and Sequence settings

I am new to FCP form Avid Meridien.
I have QT export from Avid: 3.68GB meridien compressed 648x486 non-square originally cut from DV. When imported into FCP it automatically becomes 720x486 squeezing the picture. I also cannot figure how to set sequence so they match incoming QT. I get a "general error" and then "out of memory" red frame and when I close the canvas I cannot get it back.
I am importing to FCP to add chapter marks for iDVD which I figured out.

You can create custom sequence settings from the Audio/video settings. Duplicate the DV preset and change the size there. (sequence settings tab)
It would be better however to get that file in true DV size which is 720X480...

Overkill on .avi files for sequence settings?

I've gotten decent now with the move to HD from DV, but my family still has a Canon S5 IS that shoots SD 640 x 480 .AVI files that I need to deal with.
I did a very quick test (that took a while to render and then encode), but since I wanted it in 16X9 format and I'm comfortable with AIC and Apple ProRes 422, I set up a new project as:
Sequence Preset: AIC 720p
Capture Preset: HDV- Apple ProRes 422 (although I just imported the .avi file into the browser).
Rendering took a few minutes, but it came out fine.
I then exported it as a self-contained QT Movie and took it into Compressor where I exported it as a 640 x 360 for the web. The 2:21 movie test took about 23 minutes to encode.
Is this overkill for .AVI files?
Is there a better way to create the sequence settings?
Should I first use Compressor or MPEG Streamclip to convert it to AIC or ProRes 422 LT and then take it into FCP 7 or just import as I did and drag to the timeline and then expect a long first render?
Thanks,
Dave

I ran a few more tests last night trying to get the Sequence Size Settings for the down a bit to speed up rendering and for exporting from Compressor.
I set the Sequence Settings (for a new sequence) to be Apple ProRes 422 and custom-sized it at 848 x 477 to keep the 16x9 ratio for my flash video player for the 640 x 480 .avi files. (It chops off 3 pixels, but it seems fine.) I'm ultimately going to export from Compressor at 640x360 anyway.
But, I went back to the original sequence timeline which was ProRes 422 at 1920x1080 and experimented:
When I imported the raw .AVI file (no pre-transcoding) into the Browser window and then set In and Out points in the Viewer and dragged it to the timeline, the avi snippet which was 640x480 now expands to fit into the 1920x1080 timeline and views fine in the Canvas window. I then grabbed an HD 1920x1080 clip (shot from my Canon Vixia SF100 Camera--.mts file already converted to Apple ProRes 422) and set In and Out points and dragged it to the timeline. Both files seemed to play together nicely.
I bring this up because a few months ago when I was editing some of the HD footage from the Vixia, I tried to drag in a 640x480 clip and it looked like a postage stamp when viewed in the canvas. I'm not sure what is different from a few months ago and now where the 2 size clips seem to conform better.
I have a mixture of instructional video and family stuff I will be doing. Both will ultimately (after web) go to DVD and possibly Blu-ray.
*My new question:*
Should I keep using the Apple ProRes 422 timeline (or 422 LT) so I can integrate the SD and HD footage and again, ultimately be able to put both on Blu-ray?
As has been said in this forum many times, "hard drives are cheap", and even though this workflow creates storage issues, this should give me better archival quality for the SD stuff and future ease in exporting to Blu-ray along with the HD footage.
Is there a better way to go about this? Is the ProRes 422 overkill? It all looks very good on my MBP in fullscreen.
Thanks,
Dave
