Changing multiple objects at once

is there a way of setting eg thre end jump for multiple tracks at once - if they all have the same end jump?
best tommy banana

Not really, but you can do it another way around...
Make the first track, set the end jump and hen duplicate the track twice. You do this by clicking on the track in the outline view panel, hold the Apple key, press 'D" on your keyboard.
The two new tracks should have the same attributes as the original, including the end jump, menu settings and so on. You can then add the different footage to these new tracks.
But - are you certain you ned two other tracks? Can you not use a single track and put all of your clips into that, then use stories to divide it up?

How to image trace multiple objects at once on Illustrator CC?

Hello,
This may sound like a stupid question, but I am having troubles trying to image trace multiple objects all in one go.
I'm currently working on Illustrator CC and I remember this process being a lot easier to do on Illustrator CS5.
I have a typical job where I create client specific barcodes on a separate program, and then bringing them into Illustrator to vectorize.
When I used to do it in CS5, all I had to do was release clipping masks, select all 50 or so barcodes, then Image Trace - and voila, al of my barcodes were vectorized at once - easy.
I now have to vectorize about 120+ barcodes and Illustrator CC is only letting me select & image trace one barcode at a time. There has to be a better way, and I'm hoping someone here can help.
(I would open up CS5 and do it from there, but my work computer was recently replaced with a newer iMac and was only provided with Illustrator CC)
Thanks!

Not sure what your barcode-specific challenges and methods may be, but my general aversion to the image trace feature compels me to suggest that you just create the barcodes in vectors in the first place. I do that using Terry Burton's free online barcode generator.

Resize multiple objects at once

How do I set the height of mutliple objects at once? I'm creating a form and the I want to ensure all the text fields are the some height.

OK...I guess my question stems from wondering how you're creating your Text Frames in the first place, and after that, how you copy and resize them.
When I do this sort of thing, I like to use the Rectangle Frame Tool, then I click in the document and enter the size numerically. Then Option + Drag to create copies. The "Content" parameter for the frames can be assigned now, or later, after you resize them.
I guess what I don't understand is how you're resizing them? You're doing them individually, and manually, to fit the space, right? If you constrain the resizing to horizontal only, you shouldn't have a problem with the height of the boxes changing.
I dunno, maybe I'm missing something from your workflow that presents a special case?

Need UNDO command to undo multiple objects at once

I'm writing an Illustrator plugin (in actionscript, no C code) that creates a group object and then adds some path items to it. The problem I have is as follows:
If the user tries to UNDO (Ctrl+Z) what my plugin has done, Illustrator will undo each pathItem seperately. I need to mek it undo ALL the pathItems that the plugin have created at once. Can you guide me into the right direction to do it?

Process your objects and add app.redraw(); in the end - should help.
I'd also suggest to put all processing code into external .jsx, and just call required functions from AS. Had a lot of problems with ActionScript recently, and had to convert to javascript after all

Is there a way to scale multiple objects at once?

I'm trying to select and scale three objects (imported PSD files) at the same time. It seems like it will only scale one at a time (i.e., two of the selected objects do not scale, while the other does). Is there something I'm overlooking, or is Captivate just really deficient in this area?
Alternatively, is there anywhere you can enter a scale percentage manually? I want all of the scaled objects to remain the same size in proportion to one another.

I have three objects (see below) and I want to scale them all at the same time (so they scale proportionally). Something like this is easy in Illustrator or any Microsoft product.
I did find a fix though - apparently if I group them first, I can scale the group, and ungroup the objects after the scale operation. It's not the most elegant solution, but it will do.

Change multiple dates at once?

Is it possible to change the year on many imovie events easily? My video camera had the wrong date on it for a couple years, so all our events (each with many separate clips) from 2011 look like they're from 2010, and so on. I want to change a whole bunch of 2010-labeled events and clips to 2011 without going through and doing each clip individually-- there are hundreds, if not thousands of them! I have an imac from 2009 with imovie installed on it.
thanks,
Kara

There is an app called "A Better FInder Rename" which can quickly rename files.
http://www.publicspace.net/ABetterFinderRename/
Usually event clips are named in the form clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.ext
You can rename them quickly in ABFR.
I would be careful with this if you have made a lot of projects with these clips. When you change the clip names, it would not update the project links.
When you update the clip names, I would suggest that you delete the folders within the event containing cache, thumbnails, and analysis. After renaming, start up iMovie and it will recreate these folders.
Another way to do this would be to create a new Event in the Movies/iMovie Events/ folder. Copy the clips to this new folder. Then rename them using ABFR. Finally, start up iMovie and it will create the thumbnails folders, etc and it will put this new event in the proper year. When all is well, you can delete the original event.
If you already have a lot of projects that you still need to edit, I would just use the facility within iMovie.
There is another app by the same company called A Better Finder Attributes which enables you to edit metadata on batches of files. This is quite useful for photos, but I have not found it to be helpful for iMovie. I think the reason is that iMovie seems to give precedence to the file name, and if it cannot figure out the date from the file name, only then will it consider the creation date.

Simple Script for Multiple Objects?

Someone recently helped me with setting an opacity level for an object using this one line script and binding a keyboard shortcut to it: app.selection[0].transparencySettings.blendingSettings.opacity=50; (Pressing "5" sets the object's opacity to 50%)
Although the script works perfectly for one object, when mutiple objects are selected it only affects the first selected object. Can someone show me how to get this script to affect multiple objects at once?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the help man, but what's with the snarky comment? lol. Yeah I use my "5" key daily as well. But in ID it does nothing while in the default context, so why not put it, and the other digits to use to quickly set object opacity? (this function is similar to setting opacity for Photoshop layers by the way).
Have a nice day, and cheer up. Spring's almost here.

How to change font attributes on multiple paths at once?

I am trying to change font size on multiple paths at once but as soon as I select them the font options become unavailable (greyed out).
Is it possible to do it?

Willi is essentially correct but I think his message is being drowned out by the allcaps enthusiasm
If you select multiple paths with the Selection tool (the black arrow) then you cannot alter type formatting directly. Seasoned InDesign users rarely manipulate type by direct formatting; instead we apply a paragraph style to all of the type, and then change the paragraph style. If all the text on those paths was marked with the same paragraph style, then you could just change the style.
You could do it other ways, but they're all suboptimal. For instance, if all of your text-on-path was set at 11 points, and no other type was set at 11 points anywhere in your document, you could use Find/Change to specify a Find Format and a Change Format under More Options. If all of the paths were marked with the same Object Style, then you could make a new Paragraph Style and specify it in the Object Style.
But if you drew those paths by hand, then they have the Basic Graphics Frame object style applied (like everything else you drew in the document) and if you didn't style the text then every bit of text has the Basic Paragraph style applied (like every other bit of text in the document). So you're either going to do it by hand, or... you're going to follow Willi's allcaps advice.

Is there a way to format multiple images at once? Change colour mode or resolution?

Is there a way to format multiple images at once? Change colour mode or resolution?

It's very easy to make an action.
Go to window > actions
In the actions panel, simply click the 'create a new action' button, it starts recording as soon as you've created it (when you've given it a name).
Now you can apply the changes you want to make to the images on the file you have opened.
After you've done all you need to do. You click the 'stop' button. The action is now ready to use. And you can apply the changes you made on all the other files.
Then you can continue how gener7 explained.
I usually include a save and close command, so that the whole batch doesn't end up opened after running the script.
But if you do that you have to create a new file, and save it to your computer before you start recording the action, otherwise the save command will be replaced by each file. And you'll end up with one edited file in the end. At least for as far as I know!

Insert data into multiple entities at once using a view object

Hi,
I'm trying to insert data into multiple entities at once using a view object, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to work. The two entities have a 1:1 association. I created a view object which contains both entities and I made sure they aren't read-only. But like I said it doesn't work, I can't insert data in both entities at once... :(
Is this possible? And how (if it is)?

Is this possible? And how (if it is)? Peter:
This is definitely supported and tested. Please send us the exception stack trace. You must running into other problems. A few things to note:
A) You have to mark the entities as both updateable (not read-only) and not reference-only.
B) If you're not seeing an exception stack, turn on diagnostic. Here is how:
To turn on diagnostic, go to the IDE,
1. Select the project.
2. Do right mouse click and select "Project Settings..."
3. On the Settings dialog, select Configurations/Runner.
4. In the righthand side pane, you should see a textbox for "Java
Options". Please add the following JVM switch:
-Djbo.debugoutput=console
Then, rerun. The run command should include
-Djbo.debugoutput=console as in
"D:\JDev9i\jdk\bin\javaw.exe" -Djbo.debugoutput=console -classpath ...
You should now see a lot more output on the IDE's message window. Here you should see the exception stack trace.
If you invoking your app directly from command prompt, just add "-Djbo.debugoutput=console" after your "java.exe".
Thanks.

Problem in multiple item for change document objects

hi gurus,
I have created change document object in tcode SCDO . It had giveN function module /TMW/CHG_OBJ1_WRITE_DOCUMENT.

here my problem is when ever i changed multiple item data , my program showing first item details only . I need to show all item data when ever i changed parallel . please help me where is my problem .
thank you

I think this is issue with function module generated thru SCDO Please check in your function module inside that the following function modules are used
CALL FUNCTION 'CHANGEDOCUMENT_OPEN'
CALL FUNCTION 'CHANGEDOCUMENT_MULTIPLE_CASE'
CALL FUNCTION 'CHANGEDOCUMENT_CLOSE'
if not then there may be issue with SCDO

How to change multiple artboardsizes AND objects in it?

Hi everyone
I want to know if there's a possible to change multiple artboards AND the objects that you make in it, scale proportionally?
I'm able to change my artboards independent but not al the artboards on the same time. Is there an option for that you can change multiple art boards on the same time?
Then I have an other question.
Is there a possibility that you can scale you objects (or things that you made in that artboards) proportionally when you want to change your artboards?
Or do you have to remake al de artboards on the size that you want and scale the objects that you make manualy?
Thank you in advance

astriva wrote:
Or do you have to remake al de artboards on the size that you want and scale the objects that you make manualy?
SHort answer: yes.
Long answer: first create rectangles the size of your artboards. Then delete the artboards.
Scale everything as desired. Convert rectangles to artboards via the command in Object > Artboards.

Same way you select multipl items anywhere else.
Hold ctrl and click the items you want.
If they are in consecutive order, click the 1st then Shift click the last.
