Cool Split Screen method

Hi All,
My client wants to use a cool split screen edit..
something like this clip here.
http://israeljustice.com/files/DITS/SplitScreen.wmv
My question is how to approach it?
I dont want just to scale and crop - because I want to pan&zoom a cross an image.
Right now Im using the "BCC pan and zoom" tool - its working - a bit tedious but works.
I want to add titles that will run across a square and than cut on that square's edge.
What do say guys?

Do your panning in a separate sequence, then nest that sequence in the main sequence and apply scaling and positioning as desired.
Cheers
Eddie

SALV in Split Screen - not refreshing

I have a Report based program with Selection Screen
Upon entering valid Inputs program calls screen 100.
On Screen 100, I placed following elements
Docking Container
       Splitter Container with 2 rows with Docking container as Parent
              Placed a Toolbar object on the Top container of the split. Toolbar has 2 buttons BSID & BSAD
              If user clicks BSID, then I have to show a SALV report in Lower Split
              If user clicks BSAD, then I have to show a bit different data SALV report in same Lower Split
I tried several methods to refresh the data in SALV( I used 1 SALV)
Data is not refreshing in the second split...
I see that Lower Split container has children attribute set.. I tried to free() the lower container, but it deletes cmplete container itself, what can I do to refresh the data without completely redoing all the container stuff?
Also Children attribute in Split container is Read-only, how can I change this one ?
Valid answers would receive points...

Clean split screen

i am working on a project and i'm having a split screen. i've done the split screen with (crop and scale) on FCP but after i do that the video seems to have fuzzy edges. i've noticed on my external viewing monitor. what do i do to clean up the edges of the film to make it look better. thanks!

It is possible to add your own web pages to the Help database. As with all things hackish, you should work on a copy in case it gets out of whack.
Go to Library > Documentation > Help > Machelp.help and control-click to show package contents. Got to Contents > English.lproj and you will find lots of web pages. After you make a new page, you'll need to add keyword matches to the ExactMatch.plist as well as meta tags to the HTML source of the page. It's not an easy method so unless you want to add Help topics for an organization, forget it.
When I did support for Dell, I found their support documents a bit meager and those from Microsoft very archanely searchable so I made web pages for all my notes and bookmarked them in Netscape. Many other technicians at Dell asked for copies to add to their Netscape (IE was lame in this respect).

Split-screen menus: do you find them useful?

Hi all,
this post could be a reminder for Apple, for the next firmware update.
This depends on you, that's why i'm asking you people:
do you find the split-screen menus useful?
Would you appreciate the possibility of turning them off?
Excluding the usual problems with iTunes, my ipod 160 is working very good. The only annoying this is the gap for loading the previews in the split-screen.
Thank you
M.

I quite like the whole split screen thing as it happens. It probably helps that I've got album art for every track. I agree, however, that it would be nice to have an option to turn it off for those that don't like it.
What would be really cool though is if you could play an album you've just spotted on right-hand side of the screen. E.g. Play in split screen opens the displayed album. Left & right clicks go forward & backwards in the random album order that was generated, in case you spot somthing that interests you as it vanishes off screen. The wheel, menu & center click would continue to provide for selecting music in the traditional fashion.
Agree with comments on the clock. I'd like an option to leave the screen alone and just turn off the backlight. Backlight delay needs to be fixed. IFRC 30secs setting still turns off after 20 secs. What about an option to maintain backlight at lower (selectable) brightness for a user selectable number of minutes?

How to show subscreen in split screen

Hi all,
Basically i want to show one tree control in left pane and all relevent subscreens in right pane.
But, I am not able to create subscreen area in right pane.
How i can create sub screen area and/or subscreens in split screen control.
Thanks,
Jogdand M B

Hi Machindra,
I also faced the same kind of problem previously. Actually there is no container which can contain normal dynpro screens / subscreens / ui elements.
However you can still implement the same kind of scenario.
As you said you want to have splitted area - left area should have tree control and right area should have subscreen.
What you can do is make use of docking container (class CL_GUI_DOCKING_CONTAINER) like -
1. Create your normal dynpro screen with a subscreen area as you wanted.
2. In a PBO module write code for creating tree control in docking container, like -
DATA: <docking container object> TYPE REF TO CL_GUI_DOCKING_CONTAINER,
      <ALV grid object>          TYPE REF TO CL_GUI_ALV_GRID.
CREATE OBJECT <docking container object>
              EXPORTING repid     = repid
                        dynnr     = dynnr
                        side      = docking->dock_at_left
                        extension = 180.
CREATE OBJECT <ALV grid object>
       EXPORTING I_PARENT = <docking container object>.
CALL METHOD <ALV grid object>->SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY
     EXPORTING I_STRUCTURE_NAME = 'SFLIGHT'
     CHANGING IT_OUTTAB        = <output table>.

Firefox comes up with a split screen, left and right. Is this normal? (I don't like it, and would prefer to have only one pane open upon logging in.)

Firefox comes up with a split screen, the right side of which is the one I want to retain as the only opening window (blank), and the left side of which (a sign-on page for a favourite site) I would like not to have sitting there. Is this normal? Or did I somehow (erroneously) make it happen? How can I get rid of the left pane so that only one pane (the right, 'blank') appears when I log on to Firefox?

Opening in the Sidebar is the default action for bookmarks that are created via a "Bookmark this Page" link or button on a website. Make sure you use the many "Bookmark this Page" methods that are in Firefox instead.
Right-click that bookmark and select '''Properties''', then un-check the preference for '''Load this bookmark in the sidebar''', and then click Save.

Is split screen possible on iMovie HD?

I've just been fooling around with version 5.0.2 and I can't find any way to do a split screen effect. Is it possible to combine too clips together in any way other than a transition such as a wipe?

Yes, as Bengt describes. Here is how to do it in Quicktime Pro:
Organise the video clips and/or stills that you want to superimpose on to your main video clip, by having these in separate, individual iMovie projects (no matter how small). It helps if these are in the exact length/time you want later.
Now start with the clip in your iMovie project on to which you want to superimpose one of more smaller video clips or stills. Lets call it Main Clip. Export this (share) to Quicktime Pro in DV (full quality). make sure it has the same aspect as before (Quicktime tends to default to 4:3. If you want 16:9, read on).
In Quicktime, with this project open, select File ~ Open File. Select the iMovie file (in your movies folder) of the first clip/still you want superimposed. This will open in its own QT window. Select Edit ~ copy. If it is a movie clip then select all ~ copy (or you will only get one frame!). Switch back to the Main Clip window, and click in the scroll bar where you want the extra clip/still to appear. Choose Edit ~ Add to Movie.
You can repeat this as many times as you like, if you want to build a 'Video Wall', i.e. have several superimposed clips/stills on the same Main Clip.
Do not worry that the new clip overlaps or covers up the Main Clip, at this stage.
Choose Window ~ Show Movie Properties. The Properties Dialogue appears.
You will see a list of video (and audio) tracks. Track one will be the Main Clip, track 2 your new added (superimposed) clip. Click track 2, then click visual settings. From the Scaled Size pop-op menu, choose percent. Then type 50 into the first box. If Preserve Aspect Ratio is turned on you won't need to type 50 into the second box. You have made the pasted footage appear at one quarter its original size. The inset is now hugging the top-left corner of the Main Clip. If you want, you can type numbers into the Offset Boxes to shove it away from that corner (there are 72 pixels to the inch).
If your original Main Clip was required in 16:9, unclick (de-select) Preserve Aspect Ratio, and type in 1920 in the first box, and 1080 in the second, in Video Track 1. This will not affect video track 2, but if that is also wanred in 16:9 repeat for that track.
You can superimpose, 3, 4, or more such 'overlaps' on the same clip, and spend a happy afternoon tapping away for each track in the Offset Boxes until you have got them all in the right place! You can even overlap them, if you can remember (or note down - hire a secretary to take notes) which track you want on top etc.
Save the completed QT file. Import the completed file into a new iMovie project. Import this into the original iMovie project, substituting the old clip you copied to QT as Main Clip for the new fancy clip you have made.
You will probably need to experiment a bit with the above. I know, it took me two days to master it the first time. Result: in the Wedding Video I made, during the Best Man's speech, he is relating a story about his brother (the groom) breaking his surfboard in half and swearing at the Atlantic Ocean whilst hitting it with his broken surfboard. While he is saying all that a superimposed video appears of the groom doing exactly that - a video I took 14 years previously! Moreover, the wedding video is in 16:9, but the inset clip is in its original 4:3 aspect!
Cool or what!
Have fun!

Using local/testing server with cs5 inserting images look fine in the split screen but do not show

Hi
If I open example: header.php and insert any photo jpeg/.html ecs i can see the images in the split screen but not in the browser if i save then refresh. I am able to make any change to the code ecs. and they are reflected just fine. I have tried this with my fireworks images .html and when that did not work i tried a strait jpeg off the desktop. This all did not work. I have deleted the local server then step by step created a new one via devnet instruction. This did not work! everything looks fine i even tried in 3 sep browsers with 0 luck....There is no remote server connected at this time because i am making a child theme for my current site. After all changes are done we will the ftp the word press files to site and change.
Ps i even started over from scratch with 0 positive affects....

After a lot of pain!!!!!!! the issue is fixed lol After 3 weeks I have overlooked the obvious !!! so the simple fix was the path of the image. Yes i feel stupid 10 years in lol....
Apparently dreamweaver cs 5 will not use the full path when inserting images into the page example: If you drag the image out of your assets folder or however you do it, DW will give you a path like this <img src="images/glass.jpg" width="800" height="729"> This is not the full path and when your pist!!! you cant see things like that ;( so the image path should look like this:
<img src="wp-content/themes/adszoom/images/glass.jpg" width="800" height="729">
also in the html files example of bad then good!

When using firefox and each time I open a new tab I end up with a split screen and it is annoying. How so I fix it.

I open firefox. Go to website then where there is a + sign I open a new tab. A new tab comes up but then splits the screen into two with a new tab in the middle and I end up with 3 small split screens in the one instead of 3 separate tabs.because it is doing that i cannot then get a full screen and go about my usual business. Lately there seems to be numerous problems with fire fox loading also. it continues to come up with page not found and try again. I hit try again and then it may find the page. these are on sites that I access daily and have done so for several years now. Never before have I had so much trouble with fire fox. Not only I but we have four computers accessing the internet ...have done for some time and never had this problem but everyone is suddenly experiencing the same problem. The only thing new that has been put on the main computer is a K9 protection thing recently and I am wondering could that have anything to do with these issues and if not is fire fox having tech issues . How can these problems??

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Move your second slit inside the first loop, so you are splitting the substring, not the entire string.

How do I do a split screen to show the contents of my Library and a playlist at the same time?

I’m using iTunes 11.3.1 on a current generation Mac running OSX 10.9.4.
I like to manually create playlists. I want to be able to see the contents of a playlist and my library at the same time. Is there a way to do a split screen view in iTunes so the songs in my playlist show in one window and the library shows in another?

CS4-How do I remove a split screen in the Program monitor window?

I have Pro CS4 on a vista 64 OS. I am using the Mainstream encoders and my Program monitor window switches to a split screen every time I play the timeline. When I stop the playback, the screen returns to normal full screen with the last frame showing. When I start the playback again, the screen splits into two screens squishing the actual playback window to the left part of the monitor window. Any Ideas? Thanks.

I found the solution by changing my quality settings (in the top right hand corner of the program display window) from "Automatic Quality" to "Highest Quality".
I am not sure why it affects the display in this manner, but it just works this way and it is repeatable.
I am working with 50 Mb MXF files from a Sony PDW900 HD camera.I use the Mainstream codecs to inport the files. I am using a Nvidia Quadro CX as a video card with the latest drivers. I first thought that the Mainstream codecs were affecting the display somehow, but then again, I do not remember changing these display settings. Thanks for the suggestions, I appreciate the response just the same...

My Built-in Webcam has my image in a horizontal split screen!

My Built-in Webcam has my image in a horizontal split screen. How can I fix this???

Let me explain more - when I use skype for example, my image is displayed in a horizontal split screen. I have tried another chat product and the same thing happens - so it must be something to do with the built in camera or configuration of the camera. Would it be best to contact Apple about this? Will somebody have to get a spanner out to fix my quite new macbook pro? (3 months old). I teach languages online so I really depend on a decent image. Can anybody help me?

How can I return to a split screen set-up?

While I was away on business, a co-worker shared my computer and somehow changed the appearance of my inbox to a full screen. I want to return to the split screen which allows me to see my e-mails and read the highlighted one in the split screen format I had originally.

You say that pressing F8 does not turn on the Message Pane? You are in the main window with your Inbox showing right?
From the Menu Bar select View-Layout. is Message Pane checked?
No Menu Bar? Press the alt key.
If it is checked and still no message pane showing, maybe it got dragged off the bottom of the screen. Move your mouse down toward the bottom margin of the screen and watch for it to change to a double headed arrow. When it does click and drag up to see if you can pull up the message pane.

Can I use split screens on and extra monitor I have. I can get mirror image on both screens, but not a split screen. The monitor is 1600 x 900.

Can I use split screens on an extra monitor I have? I can get a mirror image on both screens, but not a split screen. The monitor is 1600 x 900 AOC 20inch monitor. Hope I haven't wasted my money buying this £69 monitor. My 13" Macbook Pro is a little small for my ageing eyes. Thanks

In the display settings on your computer uncheck "mirrored". This will put the displays in "extended" mode. In extended mode you can set the external display to its native resolution as well as drag windows from your computer to the external monitor. I assume that is what you mean when you say "split screen".
