Closing all gaps on timeline with one click?

I've always wanted to be able to do my clip selections on the timeline, then close up all the gaps with a single click. I'm wondering if FCP can now do this?
I'm in FCP 5.1.4 here on location (laptop).
But am in FCP Studio 2 back in the cutting room.
Would like to know for both, if such a thing is possible?

Intriguing Max,
My dilemma is simpler, I think, (unless I've misunderstood your instruction): I just want to get rid of the gaps on a single track. Ultimately. My unwanted clips are on track one. Bang. Delete. My 'wanted' clips are on track two. I'm just dragging them down to track one - where I then simply want to delete the gaps.
You made me realize I could probably drag all the clips from the timeline to a bin, and then back again into the timeline ... though I'm not sure they would then line up chronologically. I will try it.
Mmmm. I'm wondering if I copy 'X' track one, and dump it into the canvas window ... whether it will reappear on track one, with all the gaps removed. Maybe this is what you are actually telling me. I'm going to try it out. And will post the results here.
I do find your suggestion very useful ... it might solve some other situations I come across occasionally.
Thank you most kindly,
Ben

How do I rename many photos all at one time with one click?

I have got many photos of a sery and want to rename it all with one click only (instead of clicking through it all in single actions and wasting time).
How can I rename many pictures/photos all together with one click only? -
1) I have OS X Yosemite
2) Aperture
3) Automator App
to use for this purpose, but I do not see through with any of it.
Detailed Support for 1) and 2) and 3) please!

Can be set with one click that all senders are approved?

Can be set with one click that all senders are approved?
Example: folder inside POP3/IMAP have many folders. Can be approved email sender's or each sender needs to be added into UNwanted list?

Hi,
I'm not sure if I understand the request clearly, it seems you want to find an easy way to set all the mail senders in a folder as blocked senders or safe senders, correct?
I'm not sure which version of Outlook you are using, for Outlook 2013, there's no such quick method to do that by one click, you will need to use the Junk E-mail Options to add the senders to the Safe Senders or Blocked Senders list.
You can learn more information from Use Junk Email Filters to control which messages you see:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/use-junk-email-filters-to-control-which-messages-you-see-HA102749438.aspx
From the link above, please note if you have existing lists of safe names and addresses, you can move that information into Outlook. Click
Import from File and browse for the list file that you want. To create a file that uses your current list, click
Export to File and then specify where you want the new file saved.

How to minimize Final Cut pro with one click?

I know you can minimize windows (canvas, timeline, etc) by pressing Command+M 4 times but how to minimize Final Cut pro with one click?

Hold down the Option key and click the Minimize button on any window, all windows in the app will minimize.
Don't know what or if the reverse of this is - so although it's a one click minimize all windows, I believe you have to re-enlarge them one at a time.

Download and convert Youtube video to MP3---Just with one click

Download and convert Youtube video to MP3---Just with one click
Last week, when wandering around the Youtube watch.com, I was enthralled with the theme song of "Lost", especially the words of the song "I found out, on the corner of first and amistad, where the west was all but won all weeklong, smoking his last cigarette, I said: "Where you been?" He said: "ask anything.""......"
I couldn’t help expecting to save this song to my personal players. What a delightful thing listening to the song while walking or waiting for a bus! Okay, do you have the same experience as me? When hearing an exciting speech or dialogue, are you thirsty for downloading them and saving as your best memory?
Download, convert Youtube to mp3?—yes, you can.
Anna, one of my best friends, has posed a question "I have a Mac notebook and I only need the audio (mp3 music) of a certain Youtube movie, what shall I do?" The solution to the problem is shown as below:
Step one: Install a Youtube Converter for Mac as follows:
Step two: import the URL of Youtube video (or batches of URL) you wanna convert using "Add URL" icon. Select output format like audio (MP3) by "Settings" and customize your output file path with "Browse".
Step three: If you want your output audio much better, you can set the audio resolution like Bit Rate, Channels or Sample Rate presented in the following picture.
Step four: Click "Ok” button, it automatically download and convert your youtube videos simultaneously. After a few minutes, you can get the desirable audio (mp3) you want and enjoy it on any portable devices.
Download, convert Youtube videos to iPod, iPhone, iPhone 3Gs, PSP, Creative Zen, Zune, iRiver, and etc. --- done by one click.
Generally, if you want to download a Youtube video and then convert them to MP3 for your mobile devices, you need two Youtube tools: Youtube Downloader and Youtube Converter. But, now, with Pavtube Youtube Converter for Mac, you can both download and convert massive videos by clicking one "Ok" button.
Now, all the best, you can enjoy versatile Youtube music at a waiting room, on a bus, traveling, walking around the park or lying on your bed..

Youtube's ToU specifically state that downloads of any content is prohibited unless there is a download button available for a particular video.

Delete photo's from organizer catalogue AND disk with one click?

Hi,
When deleting photo's from the organiser, PSE asks if i only want te remove the file from the organizer catalogue, or as well from the disk. In fact, i always want to do that. Now, it takes 2 clicks to confirm to delete a photo, which is time-consuming.
is it possible to delete photo's from the organiser as well from the harddisk with one click? (or, just by clicking 'delete'.)

fatmax3m wrote:
Well, thats your opinion. IMHO, it's truly crappy. When sorting out photographs, en wanting to delete a hundred, it's really not convenient having to do all those extra clicks.
I think Adobe should offer some tweaking features, for questions like this...
But, thanx for the answer.
If your main issue is to delete rapidly hundreds of files from disk, there are better ways in the Organizer. Did you notice that deleting a single file from catalog and disk is slow ? Even deleting a dozen of selected files from disk (a single additional click) is slow. So, the best choice is to work in two steps. The first one is to select all the files to be deleted (a hundred, a thousand...) and mark them in some way : using the 'hide' feature, assigning a 'tobedeleted' tag (immediate even for dozens of selected files); then with all the files selected, delete from disk (and go drink a coffee...).
I won't discuss the obvious question that those last methods let you check all possible deletions before committing the undoable choice

Start a call with a list with one click

Hello.
Don't know whether this is the right place, but: i've just created a list in Skype. What i hoped to do, is start a call with all the people in that list with one click. I'm using Skype on Mac/OSX, and can't find such an option (right clicking the list does not supply that option, starting a new conversation and trying to add the list seems impossible ....). Seems i have to add every individual from the list. Am i missing a feature? Or is this a feature request ?
Kindest regards,
Raoul

Pause & restart timeline with one button

I have created a lengthy animation as a prop for a TV
production. They want to be able to start and stop the animation at
will using only the mouse without anything being seen on the
screen. To do this I want to make an invisible button that covers
the entire screen. I know how to make it either start or stop, what
I can't figure out is how to make the invisible button start and
stop the timeline with alternative clicks ie click 1 starts it,
click 2 stops it, click 3 restarts ad infinitum.
Any help would be much appreciated

Hi Cevema,
The instance name is the instance name of the clip. When you
select the
clip on the timeline, open up your Properties Inspector. In
the
lower-left-hand corner there should be a "MovieClip" pull
down and
probably a text box with "<Instance Name>" in it. This
is how Flash
recognizes which clip you want to target. Add the name here
(no spaces,
don't start with a number, no special characters), and this
is your
instance name. Then, replace the "someClip" with the instance
name. Say
you used, "myInstance" for the instance name, your code would
be:
this._parent.myInstance...
You would do this anywhere where "someClip" appeared in the
example I
showed you.
In order for that code to work correctly, you will need to
ensure that
it is ON the button (not the timeline or anything). Also,
your clip
instance needs to be BESIDE your button on the timeline.
Here's how:
1. Your movie clip (the one to control) should be on a frame.
The button
you want to use to control the clip should be on the same
frame. It
shouldn't be inside the clip you want to control, in another
scene, or
anywhere else.
2. When adding code to your button, select it (don't open it
so you can
see "DOWN"/"UP"/"OVER" frames), hit F9 (or open the actions
panel) and
add the code there.
The reason you need to be careful when adding this code is
because of
something called scope. You'll notice that in the code I use
a keywor
called "this". It literally means...this! So if you are
putting this
code inside of some movie clip, "this" will refer to the
movie clip. In
this case, "this" refers to the button. "_parent" refers to
the movie
clip in which the button lives. It's like a word map....
this._parent.someInstance >>> From "this", look in
my "parent", and in
there look for something with instance name "someInstance".
Hope that clears it up.

Multiple tasks with one click

My work involves manually changing multiple lines to a different graphic style, and then moving that line to a different layer. As it is now, I am changing the graphic styles, choosing Select < Same < Fill & Stroke, and then moving the lines to the appropriate layer. I am wanting to know if there is a way to change the graphic style, and move the line to the different layer with one click. I'm ignorant when it comes to scripting, but was wondering if there are any scripts that would perform this function.

You need to fully explain the setup. Otherwise, people making suggestions are just guessing. Here's my suggestion, based on what little information you have provided:
You don't need a script for this; you can do it with a set of very simple Actions. Example:
Assume your repetitive task requires three Layers, named Red, Green, and Blue. On each Layer, all objects need to have the same Graphic Style applied.
1. New document. Create three Layers. Name them Red, Green, and Blue.
2. Define three Graphic Styles. Name them Red, Green, and Blue.
3. Draw an object (any object; a square, a line, whatever). Send it to Layer Red. In the Attributes Palette, type "Red" into its Note field. (This effectively "names" the object "Red".
4. Draw an object, Send it to Layer Green. Type "Green" in its Note.
5. Draw an object. Send it to Layer Blue. Type "Blue" in its Note.
6. Draw an object on Layer Red. Select it.
7. Actions Palette: New Action. Name the Action "Red." Set its color to red. Start recording:
7.1 Edit>Cut
7.2 Edit>PasteInFront
7.3 Apply Graphic Style Red
7.4 Stop recording.
8 Actions Palette: Select the Cut step. From the flyout menu select Select Object.... In the resulting dialog, enter "Red". OK the dialog. The Action should now have a new Set Selection step listed after the Cut step.
9. Actions Palette flyout menu: Button Mode.
Now you have an Action named Red that appears as a red button in the Actions palette. Select an object. Click the button. The object is moved to Layer Red, and gets Graphic Style Red.
10. Turn off Button Mode. Duplicate the Action. DoubleClick the duplicate. Change its name to Green and its color to green. Edit its Set Selection step to select the object named Green. Replace its Graphic Style step with a step that applies Graphic Style Green.
11. Similarly duplicate and edit one of the two Actions to create a Blue Action. Put the Actions palette back in Button Mode.
Now you can select any number of objects, and then move them to the Red, Green, or Blue Layer and apply the appropriate Graphic Style wiht one click.
Now come back and reveal the specifics of your actual situation which renders all that work moot.

Run Multiple report with one click

hi
I have 60 reports with me and i want to run all 60 reports with one click. Is it possible to fire next report at the end of previous using code?????
Any help would be appreciated

Hi Swapnil,
Yes it can be done in many ways. But you will need to analyze what exactally is required and what kind of reports are to be executed in sequence. WHats the report supposed to do, do they need to send some file or some data to external world, does it need to display any output?
From within the program you can use the SUBMIT command to call each report program one after the other. Or schedule all the 60 reports in a background job such that each report is executed in each step.
There are many other ways but i am really not sure why there is such a request? This is something really out of the odd :-).
Hope this helps
Cheers

How do I set Firefox 29 to always show the bookmarks sidebar with one click instead of a drop down menu?

I've decided to just get used to Firefox 29 instead of messing with add-ons and what not to make it look like it used to but one thing that is too ingrained is a favorites/bookmarks sidebar with one click. I just don't like the drop down menu. Is there a way to set the "Bookmarks" button to show the sidebar in one click?

I want the bookmarks sidebar button. This should be a BASIC feature available, not something I need to install an add-on for to revert to some "classic restore". Why is something so straightforward and easy to use considered "classic", and everything has to be hidden and hard to see in this new version? All the colours in the new tabs BTW are are BLUE, and they blend in with the background at the top, you can't see the tab edges - whose bright idea is this?

A-B entire Effects Rack with one click

Is there a way to turn all effects in a session off and on with one click? I'd like to be able to compare what I've done, to where I started, but cannot find a single click option to achieve this.

You can turn the whole Effects Rack on and off on a single track using the Switch icon to the right of the fx button in the track header. However you cannot turn off all the Effects Racks across all tracks at once in your Multitrack session.
