Copy color from clip

How can I copy the color from a clip and apply it to another clip?  The old FCP7 you could use eye dropper to copy color.

Yeah I know that option, but im not looking to copy an "effect," as it would replace all the effetcs on the other clip ( a probem with X).  I am simply trying to match a color from one other clip to a new one.  Specially I have several different "whote" backgrounds which are all different shades of white and I want to match them.   I used to be able to just use the eye dropper clicking one one part of the clip and then applying it to another clip, like Photoshop.

  • Copy grade from clip below mouse position bug report

    Hello,
    I wanted to report that when using this function via the C shortcut, the grade is indeed applied, but not resulting in any change in the preview. To get it displayed, I have to toggle, off and on, the visibility of the grade.
    Pretty annoying because I (and maybe others) work a lot with this function.
    Thanks.

  • I am having problems copying and pasting clips from one project timeline to another. When I do this they often alter in length. Sometimes by two frames. Other times they lose a chunk off the end of the last clip in the sequence. Has anyone else found

    I am having problems copying and pasting clips from one project timeline to another. When I do this they often alter in length. Sometimes by two frames. Other times they lose a chunk off the end of the last clip in the sequence. Has anyone else found this?

    You need to give a lot more information about the media specifications and the project properties you're using in the different projects.

  • How to copy files from a color classic w/broken floppy drive to an i-book ?

    How to copy files from a color classic w/broken floppy drive to an i-book ?
    I have a Coplor Classic with a system 7.
    There is no ethernet on color classic. The floppy drive is dead.
    I need some important files I have on the color classic...
    How do I connetct them to transfer files?...

    The easiest way, as AppleIIFreak has suggested, is probably to find another older Macintosh computer (with the round MiniDIN printer port) to be used as an intermediary. You could then connect the two machines by means of LocalTalk cabling, or just a plain Mac serial printer cable between the printer ports, and then set up file sharing. From that other Mac, you should be able to forward the files via Ethernet, diskettes (if you have an external USB floppy drive for the iBook) or email (Internet).
    If a second old Mac is not available, you may want to try something else. It would not be unusual for a Color Classic to have ClarisWorks already (obviously, one cannot expect anything new to become installed). If so, that program suite would contain a communications part. This means that you could connect an external serial modem, and send the files over the phone lines (or locally, modem-to-modem, in principle as in KB article # 22229; sometimes a very simple home-built line simulator may have to be added) to any other computer using a terminal emulation application with file transfer capabilities. It would also be possible to connect the modem port directly to the serial port of a PC, through a combination of a Mac modem cable (MiniDIN-8M to DB-25M) and a standard PC null-modem cable (DB-25F to DB-9F).

  • Copying iPhotos from my iMac to my Nook Color

    How do I copy iPhotos from my iMac to my Nook Color?

    File -> Export. Select the format that the Nook supports - probably Jpeg - and complete the export to the desktop. Then you'll need to consult the Nook manual for how to get it on there.
    Right click or control click on the iPhoto Library in your Pictures folder and "show package contents" inside is a folder called Originals, Finder > duplicate it and move OriginalsCopy out
    1. This won't get any edited versions, only exporting will
    2. The folders are renamed in iPhoto 11.

  • Copy object with clipping mask from illustrator to photoshop

    I want to copy objects from illustrator to use in photoshop, but the eps file that i am working in has a clipping mask and when i attempt to copy objects in that file from illustrator 6 to photoshop 6, portions (in some cases) all of the object turns black or gray.  I'm sure this is a simple noob error (hope my question is clear enough), and it's driving me nuts.  I have searched for solutions using terms "clipping mask, black, copy, move, illustrator, photoshop, etc." and can't find any discussions on this topic.  Can you please help?
    Here are the print screens to show you what i get in ai and ps -
    (see blue outlined oval object selected - opaque white gradient)
    (when moved to ps, opaque whitish oval turns black)
    I'm such a noob!  Thanks in advance for your help!

    You simply lose the blending modes and transparency settings because this stuff works differently in both programs. You will have to reinstate it manually e.g. if the white highlight is created usuing Add blending mode, you will ghave to use the same in PS...

  • How to retrive the font color, style and size of the copied text from html

    I have requirement, where I need to retrive font size and style of the copied text from html page. Here copied text I mean, the text we select and copy using either windows copy command or using Ctrl+C.
    Please help me to get the solution for this req.
    Thanks in advance,
    Amodnk.

    You can also try this, especially if you've got the Text Inspector and the Color Picker open already.
    Select the text to be colored (note that if the text is already multiple different colors the swatch under Color & Alignment section of the Text Inspector still only shows one out of the several)
    Find the color you want in the Color Picker
    Click and drag from the Color Picker into the swatch under Color & Alignment in the Text Inspector
    That will also change all the selected text to the chosen color.
    Also, regarding web safe colors, that SHOULD come as a part of the Color Picker. With the Color Picker open, select the third icon at the top (If you mouse over it, it should indicate Color Palettes. Click the popup menu button and you should see Web Safe Colors as one of the choices. With this and the Text Inspector open, you can drag and drop your way to identical colors in no time!
    That same drag and drop trick works for text on the slide as well. If you just created a bit of text and you want to apply a color, scroll until you find the color you want, then drag and drop over to the text (it will highlight in blue showing you what you're about to color).

  • Error in Copying from Clip Board F4 help in WebGUI at ITS

    Hi
       I am facing a problem while trying to upload from clip board in F4 .
    It is giving me error "Error while calling".
    the same thing is working fine in development server.
    please suggest some thing .
    Regards
    Sachin

    Reading the clipboard is a functionality which was introduced with a support package. Probably your production and development system are not on the same SAP_BASIS SP level. Dev is on a newer SP than PROD .

  • Copy-Paste From Other Apps (like PPT 2004) Into CS5 Broken ? -  OS 10.6.3

    Hi,
    New Mac, so to avoid problems went for the new post-Snow Leopard Photoshop CS5. Oops.
    Copy-Paste From Other Apps Into CS5
    Pasting images/photos from Powerpoint 2004 to CS5, I experienced the exact problem posted slightly off topic by james norrington in the thread "CS5 does not let me copy & paste file names."  It was not answered and is quoted here:
    ---"I am using CS5 Photoshop and Office 2004 on 10.6.3. I was using 10.4 until a few weeks ago and it worked and still works with other macs in the office using CS4. I can copy and paste from powerpoint but it cuts the pictures in half and does not know what the res. of the image is. Also when I go from photoshop to powerpoint the image res. is also not preserved."---
    Besides that, I also found copy-paste from a digital camera photo.jpg from Preview to CS5 doesn't respect the resolution either. Directly opening the photo into PS CS5, fine.
    From the earliest PS, always was able to copy any image to clipboard, have a new document dialog box come up pre-filled with correct original WxH pixels, original resolution, color mode, etc., and just paste into the new document - perfect fit (even the oddball PPT 576 ppi). Now a shift and cut-off.  Don't have PPT 2008 to test pasting from there.
    I have also found that a similar but less severe image cut off happens when copy-paste from PPT -> Preview, or -> TextEdit, or ->  drag and drop picture clipping.
    Opening Image File in CS5
    Even an original 300 dpi tiff file wrongly went to 72 ppi etc. when opened directly into CS5. Converted the file to a jpeg in Preview - that jpeg file could be opened into CS5 correctly, reconverted the jpeg to TIFF in Preview, still opened OK (not counting loss of image quality). Still couldn't copy paste from either document into CS5 correctly. One difference I noticed in the converted files was that more information was available in the Preview file info. Maybe that made the difference in opening the file correctly.
    I'd welcome any suggestions. Thanks.

    Thanks to Chris for the explanation of the dueling clipboards.
    It's still frustrating, but since I still have a CS2 license from the dead G4 the current Mac replaced, I can try that (wonder if they can coexist), or maybe I could use an older Mac for this particular situation.
    As for the .tif file, it was generated by a Mac OS 8.5 era image capture program that we are forced to use, and the analysis was that the app does not properly encode the TIFF tags to acceptable standards. Preview 5.0.2 just guessed right from the little information that was included - but it didn't work when tried with Preview 3.0.9 on an OS 10.4 Mac. So this was a unique situation.

  • Copying Queries from one infoset to the other with variants

    Hello Gurus,
    I have two infosets (A & B) based on logical database PNPCE. Infoset A & B are exactly the same. Now, I want to copy the queries of infoset A to infoset B.
    I am unable to copy the queries with variants. And I am getting following message:
    Error when copying query report XXXXXXX= with variants. Error when importing query
    FYI, I am able to copy the queries without variants successfully, using 'Sap Query: Special Copy Functions'.
    Any help on this would be much appreciated.
    Thanks,

    I think you are right. I see  now that I am overcomplicating things.
    To answer your question, no I do not add any color adjustments to the individual compound clips. I double click into the compound clips and make color adjustments to each of the angles from the multicam clip. When copying a clip made from the same multi cam clip from one project to another, any color adjustments made to the angles of that multicam clip that was copied over from the other project, does not carry over to the same multicam clips to the new project it was copied to - even if you break the compound clip apart to just the multicam clip, at least that's what I've noticed.
    But as you said, the easier thing to do, and this makes total sense now, would be create your multicam clip, and use keywords to label the parts in the browser, then drag the clips to the timeline as you need them. I'm assuming that the color corrections you apply to the angles on the timeline will be automatically applied to new keyword clips you drag to the timeline? Also, to name those multicam clips on the timelines, would you use markers? Is this correct?
    I really need to watch a few online tutorials on compound clips, but what Luis said has really cleared things up for me.
    Thanks so much for your help and patience guys!

  • Is there any way to copy content from my iPhone to a brand new Mac with a blank iTunes library?

    Bit of background:
    This time last week, I had a MacBook Air and a 6 year old desktop PC. Everything I had was on both of them, so they acted as each other's back up. This Sunday evening just gone, my PC finally died a traumatic death, and I can't even get it to boot from Safe Mode. Then on Monday while I was at work, my house was burgled, and my MacBook Air was stolen, amongst many other things. All I have now is my iPhone 4S which was with me at the time. All my music, photos, videos etc are on my iPhone, but I'm very aware that when I eventually get my replacement MacBook from our insurance company (I'm being realistic and accepting that I'll never see my stuff again), as soon as I plug my phone into a blank iTunes library, I'll lose everything that's on there. Obviously I can re-download everything I've purchased from iTunes, though it will take a VERY long time and I still won't have playlists etc, and I can probably either Dropbox or email what photos I have on there, but I have a lot of video clips from over the last few years that aren't on my camera roll - they're in the phone as proper videos, in the video player app, and I can't get Dropbox to view that location, or figure out how to email them. The videos are very important to me and I really don't want to lose them; so much so that I'm thinking of never syncing my iPhone ever again!
    Basically, what I'm asking is, how can I copy everything from my iPhone into a blank iTunes library? Is it even possible?
    ANY input whatsoever would be greatly appreciated - I really don't want to lose all my content over this, so please please please help if you can!
    Thanks in advance

    wjosten - thanks very much for the detailed instructions. I'll try this as soon as I get my replacement and it looks like you'll probably end up getting the green tick

  • Copying objects from Illustrator CS3 to FreeHand 11.0.2

    Working on a Mac in OSX 10.4.11, I was able to select and copy objects in an open Illustrator CS2 file and paste them into an open FreeHand 11.0.2 file, where they would be fully editable. After migrating to OSX 10.6.2 and upgrading to CS3, this no longer works - the objects selected and copied from Illustrator either do not appear (only corner indicators are visible) or a pale version appears as an uneditable low-rez image with funny colors....
    Because there are so many missing features in Illustrator, it's important for me to be able to work back and forth between the two apps.  Has anyone been able to achieve this (formerly) simple interactivity?

    I got the following post from Danny Haas:
    If you go to Edit>Special>Paste Special and then select AI/EPS from the list
    it should paste just fine. It works well for me.
    Worked for me too, although text was not imported as editable text.  To do
    that had to special paste the text separately as unformatted text, and then
    reformat in FH.

    I skipped AICS3, but now use AICS4 for some tasks.
    The only solution I've found is to save the AI CS4 file as AI 8, open that
    in FHMX and copy from there.

  • Is there a way to copy attributes from one composition to another?

    I'm using After Effects 7.0
    I'd like to copy the same Zoom attributes from one composition to 30 photographs.
    In Final Cut, you can copy attributes from one clip to another. Or from one still photo to another.
    Is there a way to do that in AE 7?
    Thanx

    EDIT: I see you edited your question, so I am editing my reply.
    To copy the scale of a layer, open the main twirl of that layer and you'll see the Transform properties group. Open the twirl for that, and you'll see Anchor Point, Position, Scale, etc. Click on "Scale" and copy it (Edit > Copy, or Control+C on Windows/Command+C on Mac). Then select the other layers and just paste (Edit > Paste, or Control+C on Win/Command+V on Mac).
    Such a broad question
    Anytime you add a new item you imported to the timeline or composition panels, it becomes a new layer.
    Anytime you duplicate an existing layer (Edit > Duplicate), you get a new layer.
    Anytime you split a layer (Edit > Split) you get a new layer.
    Anytime you copy a whole layer (target the name in the timeline panel) and paste it, you get a new layer.
    You also create layers when you use the Shape tools, text tools, or create a new solid layer, etc.
    This list could go on and on, so instead, I invite you to read the After Effects Help section on Creating layers specifically, and the whole chapter on Layers and properties, in general. If anything isn't clear for you, then let us know.
