Cliché line moving across map effect?

What's the easiest way to create that old "line moving across a map" effect that documentaries used to show the route traveled between point A and point B?
Can it be done in FCP or do I need a graphics program?

You could do it very quickly and easily with animated masks in FCP. Lyric makes some plugins that make it easy to do in FCP. Nattress's Lines and Long Lines will do it, and are very easily keyframe-able. I'd drawn my lines in PhotoShop, and reveal with masks, very quick, very easy.
But if you take the time to learn Motion, you can do some more elegant, complex things with it. The trick is the time it takes to learn Motion...

A black thin line moving across my screen

Recently, I switched to arch linux, after having problems with evo/lution.
I wanted to know if there's anything more I can do to optimize my graphics chip.
I started noticing a thin black horizontal line moving up and down my screen at random times. It's quite annoying.
I recently installed the xf86-video-ati driver on my laptop.
Here are my video cards properties.

It sounds like you are describing an artefact to me -- does it go away if you disable this option?

I keep being told I must update Firefox, but all I get is a window which says connecting, and a blue thing moving across, which doesn't go away. What should I do ?

I keep getting a request to update Firefox, but when I click on it I get a window, which says it's "connecting" with a blue line moving across a box, but it seems to go no further, even after 30 minutes. What should I do ?

If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Laptop suddenly had horizontal lines running across the screen

Suddeenly horizontal lines appreared across the screen .
I have shut down and started up the computer numerous times and it does not go away .
It also affects the graphics and text on the screen .
If I cannot fix should I have the computer cleaned and set back to factory standard and how do i do that /
Thanks

2 possibilities:
1. The video chip (motherboard) has gone bad; or,
2. Just the screen has gone bad.
Connect the computer to an external monitor and see if the lines appear on it. If so, it is #1.
It is doubtful that restoring the laptop to factory specs will have any effect on the isue either way but if you want to do that you can tap F11 as you power up to enter factory reset.

White Balance Selector Disappears when moved across the image

Hi
I am using LR 4.4 on an iMac.
Does anyone know why the White Balance Selector tool would disappear when moved across an image?
it seems to change to a vertical line with an arror top and bottom.
The areas of the image on which it disappears seem to be consistent, in other words, it disappears on the same portion of the image eveytime.
UPDATE: Since posting the above a few minutes ago I've noticed that my cursor is behaving eractically. For example, on a different image to the one used above, in the library module using the Loupe the cursor changes from a magnifying glass to an arrow pointing to the right. It does this on the same part of the image every time.
Thank you for your help
Regards

Weird cursor problems are a FEATURE of the APPLE os.
There are complaints on the APPLE os system website since 2005.
The last time I checked there were 30 pages of discussions about this on the apple site
https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/os_x_mountain_lion.
I don't think APPLE has a clue as to how to fix this. It is seen in many apps, photoshop most commonly, lightroom,textedit,exxcel, and others.
Pray that something happens in soon to be released 10.8.4.

GL Account Line items - Across Fiscal year

Hi,
Is there any way to get the line items for GL accounts across fiscal years? Let us say the fiscal year is from Jan to Dec. If I want to see all the line items from Nov 2009 to Mar 2010 in one report, is there any standard report that would let me pull the line items across fiscal years? Have any one else come across this requirement?
I was not able to find any standard report and was trying to develop using report painter. But did not have any luck with the period variable to go to the prior fiscal year when it gets to zero. I could give the period and year as March 2010 and give value 3 to a variable and it would go an get the line items/balances from Jan to Mar. But if I give the value to the variable as 5 I get an error message. (REPLACE_VARIABLES; SUBRC= 0; &ZPR3 Message no. GR016)
Thanks in advance for your help. Points would be assigned for useful answers.
Thanks,
SD.

The only way we can use FBL3N or FAGLL03 is by entering the posting date in the main screen. As we are using 4-5-4 calendar, the period end dates are not the same as the month end dates.
You can not enter the period and year in the dynamic selections and get the results.
Is there any other method?
Thanks,
SD.

My Mac Book Pro has faint horizontal yellow lines moving vertically. on the monitor.

My early 2011 MBP 15" has developed a phenomenon of faint, horizontal yellow lines, in clusters, flickering and seeming to move vertically. It is intermittent and cycles on and off with about 10-15 sec. on and 10-15 sec. off. It is faint enough that it is very hard to see except on a white screen, or a large white area. I first noticed it about a month or 6 weeks ago and it seems to be getting a little bit more noticeable. It is still faint enought, however, that I really don't notice it when I'm working. But it's not hard to observe if I stop and look at a white area for a little bit. I am not noticing any other abnormal behavior.
I have been very busy and kind of ignoring this problem. But a couple of days ago, I realized that I have only 15 days left on my 3 year Apple Care on this machine. At the present level, it SEEMS harmless enough, but I realize it could be a failing video card or video power supply, I suppose (it kind of has a flicker rate suggestive of 120 Hz AC).
I'm probably going to make a Genius Bar appt. in the next couple of days, but I just thought I would see what comments or suggestions this collectively very wise community might have. I am vaguely aware of comments about "hardware diagnostics" built into the Mac, but, if true, I don't know the details. Comments solicited!

So I went to the Genius Bar with the history as outlined above. We had to watch my display for almost 10 minutes (while he checked various system stuff) before it would perform. But then it cut loose with a very convincing display of the faint, fuzzy groups of yellow lines moving slowly up the screen.
Tech pointed out that we were booted to an OS running on the store's server, NOT mine, so this ruled out software problems in one stroke. He said he'd never seen anything quite like it but felt it was EITHER: video "card" section of the main logic board (all on one in a MBP) OR a failing display. He said one or both would be replaced.
Two days later, picked up my MBP: problem solved! Tech said they connected my laptop to an external display (which I had not tried because I didn't have one available.....though maybe a tv could have subsituted, now that I think of it!) and NO PROBLEM driving the external lcd display. So they replaced my 15" lcd display and problem is gone. "Bill" was about $600, parts and labor, but Apple Care picked it up (with 6 days left to run on the coverage!).
So that's the follow-on for this problem, fyi.

My mouse scrolls shows each line moving up instead of moving one line at a time annoying

Since downloading firefox 3.6 when I scroll down a page it shows each line moving up instead of just moving one line up its very annoying

It could be that there is not enough memory in the printer or the print server to hold the entire document while printing. The printer gets Postscript files, which are larger than the original document. Also, if you are doing multiple copies, if you collate the pages, that takes more memory than printing each page multiple times.

This is a user-to-user forum. Apple does not respond to posts here. You can give Apple your feedback on the Feedback page:

They don't respond directly there, either. And once you post something here, people will comment as they see fit, regardless of what you originally hoped for. That's just the way it is with a public forum.
Try Groove for iPad. People seem to think it's a great replacement to the previous music app.

All I have on my I pod touch is a white screen with multicolored lines going across screen. What do I need to do. I can't use I tunes because it says I have to have passcode and can't get screen to come up. I have already tried holding both keys down.

- See if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.. It bypasses the passcode (and erases the iPod)
- Next try DFU mode

My I pad screen is black and unresponsive. It has gray lines moving down it. How can i get it fixed?

My Ipad is not responding and the screen is black with the odd gray line moving down it. I have tried the reboot as suggested by others but there is no response. The screen is not damages as far as I can see. Is this fixable?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

I have a thin horizontal line running across my screen about 1/4 of the way from the bottom of the monitor. Why is it there and how do I get rid of it?

There is a thin horizontal line running across the width of my screen about 1/4 of the way from the bottom. This line, along with an occasional vertical line about a 1/3 of the way from the right side of my monitor, started appearing about 7 days ago. Usually the line would disappear after a restart but now it seems intent on staying. Does anyone know what is going on and how can I resolve this?

I am having a problem moving across cells in Microsoft Excel. When I use the arrow keys, the sheet moves, instead of moving to the next cell. Would anyone have any thoughts on this, please?

Hi,
Did you find a way to solve your problem ? We have exactly the same for one application and we are using the same version of HFM : 11.1.2.1.
This problem is only about webforms. We can correctly input data through Data Grids or Client 32.
Thank you in advance for your answer.
