Creating a digital countdown clock.

Hey everyone!
Sorry for the newbie question, or maybe it's not. I'm trying to create a digital countdown clock for a project and am at my wits end. I've tried using the TCG but it doesn't go nearly high enough (175K hours) and I've tried frame animating one, but that turned into a nightmare....quickly. I've tried using Motion to accomplish the task and am getting nowhere fast. So, the question, does anyone know of a nifty tutorial or (hopefully) macro/plugin I could use to simulate a countdown timer?
Thanks in advance,
O

Inserting a digital countdown clock using iWeb

Now I need to do all of this so if anyone has any wicked code or whatever to be able to put a clock counting down using iWeb I would very much appreciate the help. I have a web site using iWeb and use forwarding to link it to the website name, I would love to have a clock counting down as part of my pages!!!
Steve :o) Can anyone help?

You can add just about any type of html code, widget, or add-on to your iWeb site if you are willing to do a little post-publish editing.
Basic Instructions are here:

(Click on the first "tip" link in the list)
Check http://www.widgetbox.com or just do a google search for a countdown clock and then use my instructions to add it in.

Countdown Clock help

Hello Everyone, I am very very new to flash cs5, a friend told me to try out the trial for it so i did and now that i've got the program i'm wondering is there anyway for me to create a Screensaver countdown clock with it? I'm looking forward to Transformers 3 lol And I would like to have a countdown clock of that. It comes out July 1st 2011. So what i would like to know is: Is there a tutorial or something that would show me how step by step how to create something like that or someone on here that could teach me how to.
Any help is appreciated

Hi.
If you want a simple countdown clock and you don't want to learn
the language to produce it yourself, then try http://www.gieson.com/Library/projects/utilities/countdown/
There are lots of freely available flash countdown clocks out there..
Just google "Free flash countdown counter" (without the quotes).
Most have a description about the usage...
Best regards

How to create the digital clock in java swing application ?

I want to create the running digital clock in my java swing application. Can someone throw some light on this how to do this ? Or If someone has done it then can someone pl. paste the code ?
Thanks.

hi prah_Rich,
I have created a digital clock you can use. You will most likely have to change some things to use it in another app although that shouldn't be too hard. A least it can give you some ideas on how to create one of your own. There are three classes.One that creates the numbers. a gui class and frame class.
cheers:)

I have enabled a small countdown clock and can not remove it.

Hi good afternoon.
I'm doing a project in Adobe Premiere Pro and is almost finished.
The problem is, I have enabled a small countdown clock, which runs through the whole sequence in the middle of the clips, and do not remove it.
Can you help? I have to send the project today.
Thanks and regards@
Edited by: Kevin Monahan
Reason: Next time, please create a shorter, more searchable title.

If it is an effect just remove (delete) it from the Effect Controls.
If the clock is in the source you are out of luck.
Only way to get 'rid' of it is to mask-blur the clock.

How do I create a digital signature on a TCP or a UDP flow?

I am trying to convert samples of a voice signal, which is intercepted from the microphone, into fixed length digital signature bytes (using Hash, or) and attach these fixed length bytes to a communication session between two terminals (UDP or TCP "HTTP"). The other receving end should be able to identify the person at the sending side.
Any thoughts how I could do this?
Any help is most appreciated.
Sam

Sam,
If you have the Sound and Vibration toolkit it may make some things easier for you regarding the voice-recording aspect, but if you aren't recording and playing back the actual sounds, just using this for detection and digital signatures, you shouldn't need to worry about this.
1. For this you are going to be doing some form of Analog Input. Then you will be storing this data to a file. There are examples for both of these aspects in the NI Example Finder from within LabVIEW.
2. If you are going to be doing the FFT, there is a VI under the Mathematics Palette that performs this operation. Again you can use the same example for saving data to the file.
3. You would need to figure out what needs to be done to create a digital signature for this. There may be something in the Sound and Vibration toolkit for this, but I do not know.
4. For the UDP or TCP transfers, there are several examples for doing this and they cover how to create the connection and transfer / receive data. These too are in the NI Example Finder
5. This goes back to number 4, this would indeed be a separate program, but everything else would just be one project and one program.
6. This would depend on how the ID was created in step 3, again whether you do the algorithm on yourself or not. For comparing to the table, you would use a Search Array and some comparison functions, all depending on how you stored the data initially.
7. Graphs are all available on your Front Panel of your VIs and you would just wire up the data that you'd like and have it displayed on the graph.
There will not be an example for everything that you are wanting to do. The examples are meant to help you get started. Have you used LabVIEW before? I would recommend doing the 3 Hour LabVIEW Introduction Course to help you get started. This will cover some of the basic concepts that you will need to know in order to create your application.
Unfortunately I cannot write the code for you, only guide and direct you. LabVIEW is a programming language and does require the user to lay out and create their own program. You will not be able to just find three or four pre-built code-snippets and connect them together to get your appliction working the way you want it. You will need to develop the applications yourself.

How do I create a digital signature to use when filling out applications online?

The application is asking me to add or create a digital ID to sign and encrypt documents. The certificate that comes with your digital ID is sent to others so that they can verify your signature.
I have four options: Browse for an existing digital ID file
Configure a roaming ID for use on this computer
Create a self-signed digital ID for use with Acrobat
Look for newly inserted hardware tokens

Formscentral does not support forms with digital signature workflows. I suggest you see if our Echosign product meets your needs.

Adobe Reader Touch (Windows Store app with "modern" UI) does not support any types of signatures yet.
Digital Signatures with certificates
Electronic Signatures (that are legally enforceable)
Signature annotations (hand-writing annotations which may not be secure and legally enforceable)
Adobe Reader XI (traditional desktop app with classic UI) supports #1 and #3.
Adobe EchoSign supports #2.
Adobe Reader for iOS/Android supports #3.

In Adobe X Pro, how do I create a digital signature in my document so that my receiver is able to sign it electronically.

If the other person will be using Reader, you should first add a digital signature field and then Reader enable the form. In Acrobat 10 you'd select: Tools > Forms > Edit
to get into form editing mode. You'd then select the signature field tool to add a signature field.
Once you have the document finalized, Reader-enable the document by selecting: File > Save As > Reader-Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features
being sure to save to a new file so you don't overwrite the original. If you don't Reader-enable, Reader users won't be able to digitally sign.

How do I create jump to (page) links using DPS in creating a digital page turner for a catalog?

I know how to use "navto" to jump to pages within the catalog created for our app.
We want to use the same article files to create a digital page turner using DPS but cannot figure out how to do it. Google searches lead to answers that say it isn't possible, but if i view a page turner I created in 3D Issue via Adobe's Content Viewer, the pages jump (via the links I made in 3D Issue).
I just can't believe that a huge company like Adobe has no way to do this in DPS.

On pages you do not want to show-up delselect "include page in navigation menu" in the page inspector:

How can I create an animated countdown timer?

Is there a way to create an animated countdown timer in Adobe Fireworks (animated gif)?
Thank you

In the Edit workspace, place the images you want to appear in each frame of the animation on separate layers of the Layers panel. For example, to create an animation of an eye blinking, you would place an image of the open eye on one layer, and an image of the closed eye on another layer.
Choose File > Save for Web.Note: If your image has multiple layers, you can also open the Save For Web dialog box from the Save As dialog box by choosing CompuServe GIF Format and selecting Layers As Frames.
Optimize the image in GIF format.
Select Animate.
Set additional options in the Animation section of the dialog box:
Loop Continuously repeats the animation in a web browser.
Frame Delay Specifies the number of seconds that each frame is displayed in a web browser. Use a decimal value to specify fractions of a second. For example, use .5 to specify half a second.

How do i create a fitness countdown in motion 5 similar to p90 x or insanity?

How do I create a fitness countdown in motion 5 that is similar to p90 x or insanity?

Google my friend...
I think this is what you want... made this in a few secs.
Library... Generators... Timecode.
Set the text properties for the Timecode text. Use a mono space text, Courier. Turned off background color if you wish.
Clone the Timecode layer (turn off the original Timecode layer)
Properties... Timing... Reverse.
As for the bar graph... There probably a right way to do this and I probably didn't do it right. I just made a bar graph with an outline and fill, duped it. The top bar graph with outline no fill, bottom bar graph fill no outline. Keyed the bottom bar graph to travel from right to left. Cloned the bar graph layer and placed a mask (revered) to cover the red bar as it traveled to the right. You can add tick marks with text to the bar graph.

I am very tired after done a week of R&D on this issue..
But i doesn't get any fair solution for this one..
I hope this is best option to place my issue here to get quick solution..
Thanks and Regards..

We are all users here.
There is no one here from Apple.
In order for you to develop and distribute content for the iPad, you need to become an apps developer.
Not sure where you sign up for this or who you have to call.
There should be a place on Apple's site that refers to a section of the site if you want to be an Apple iOS content developer.
It cost, I believe $99 U.S. to become an Apple apps developer. You'll agree to Apple's Non-disclosure rules. You'll receive Apple's app/software developers kit,and access to Apple's app developer site.
No one here is going to be able to help you.
Good Luck.
