Creating text for scroll in another program?

I've got lotsa text to scroll, i.e., credits. Can I create 'em in another program without having to spend the next WEEK using the unfriendly 'control' tab? Does FCP recognize returns, centering etc as far as text goes? Is there a better way to do this? The documentation does not address this issue as far as I know...other than QT text track.

You can create your credits in photoshop. Export the file as .png and it's already alpha.
Or have you tried using Boris text instead of the basic text tool?

Saving completed file for opening in another program

I have been using Pinnacle Studio 10.7 because it allows me to produce HD-DVD on regular DVDs. (The drawback is the approximate 20-minute time max on each DVD.) I'd like to start doing work in Premiere, then save my work to a file that I can simply open and immediately write to a DVD without losing HD quality.
What file type is best for saving my work in HD quality that can be reopened by another program without liosing that quality. I've thought that a workaround might be to simply write the new file to tape and then recapture in Studio. Can anyone help me, please? Thank you!

There is a way to fool Premiere Pro into writing the file. Just start the process, and while it is transcoding, disconnect the camera. You will eventually get an error message. Before you click OK you rename the file so Premiere Pro can't delete it.
That makes a perfect M2T file that can be used without having to recapture.
By the way, you can use many different utilities to write a data file to the DVD-ROM. I use WMV or M2T files on a DVD-ROM since my player supports them.

Creating Text for Customer Master

There are custom Text id and description (eg. ZAFF 'Affiliate Note') to be created for each type of customer(Sold-to, Ship-to,Bill-to,Payer).
I am working on a inbound interface using custom function module, which is customized from IDOC_INPUT_DEBITOR. When the new customer will be created in SAP, how to create these text for each type of customer?
Any suggession will be helpful.
Revert back if you have any doubts.

You can do this in the user exit for that customer based on the partner type by fetching the entry from Partner table like VBPA .
check the entry from here for the customer and based on the partner condition like SH BP PY SO u can populate the text .
you have to do this in teh user exit of that Inbound IDOC.

Creating expandable (for scrolling) border?

Hi
I'm a Dreamweaver newbie, and am having a little trouble with a page border. Basically I want a white boarder to auto expand as I scroll up, or down a page (so it's always around the browser page, no matter where you are in the page).
The body border (I assume it's the body's border to do this) I have at the moment is only covering the top of the page, to the bottom of the footer. Depending on which browser I'm using, I might have another 50-ish pixles following the footer (so the border is like 50 pixles higher than it should be.. instead of the bottom of the page).
I hope this makes sence to someone. Here's the code if that makes it any clearer (I've given a temporary 10px blue border):
body {
    background-image: url(images/camera_2.jpg);
    background-repeat: repeat-x;
    background-attachment: fixed;
    background-color: #C61019;
    background-position: center center;
    border: 10px solid #00F;
    left: auto;
    top: auto;
    right: auto;
    bottom: auto;
    margin: 0px;
    padding: 0px;
The only example I can think of is here http://www.charliegentle.co.uk/
(notice whatever browser, or no matter if you scroll down; the border follows/stays on the bottom of page)
Thanks in advance for any help!

Do you mean you want the footer to remain at the bottom of pages? That will happen naturally if you build your content logically from top to bottom and add some dummy text to your pages.
See this example. View source in browser to see the Code.

Embedding code in text for use in Mail program

I use Mac Mail. I'd like to be able to create a link in an email that would send people to my website, without mentioning the website. To do this, I need to embed the link, in code, in the text, but I don't know how to do this, or even if it can be done in the Mail program.
Is anyone good at this kind of thing who could tell me where I can learn how to do this? Or if it can be done in Mac Mail?
Thanks!

How can I make a migration copy of my email addresses for use in another program.

It is necessary to make a migration copy of all our email addresses for transfer to windows express.
Our office overseas can not use Thunderbird & needs all our email addresses stored in Thunderbird copied for migration into their windows express program. How can this be achieved.?
I think we may also need to transfer email copies too, can this be done.?
If so, how.?
Regards Kym

Ok I have googled, I have found a windows cleaning company in Switzerland http://www.windowsexpress.org/About-Us.htmland something called Parallels Desktop for Mac with instructions for installing windows on a mac.
So I think we need to go back to the beginning with "What is Windows express?"
Email programs as a general rule do not "export" their contents into another mail clients formats. The normal procedure is to "import" the foreign format so there are some obvious questions
What formats can this mail software import?
Are your existing mail accounts IMAP or pop?
you can export email addresses from Thunderbird as CSV which almost all programs can read (including spreadsheets) From the address book select the Tools menu (Alt+ T) and select the export option

Using iPhoto for organizing and another program for editing

I really like iPhoto for organizing my photos. The tags/comments along with smart albums are amazing. The problem is that I would like to edit the photos externally to iPhoto. I am wondering if there is a way to edit your photos externally but still use iPhoto to organize them? Would iPhoto still be able to allow the external program to edit the photo nondestructively?
I am looking to use Gimp (using X11) to edit my photos.
Thanks for any help.
mini/ibook Mac OS X (10.4.8)

bauer172:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There is a caveat to using a 3rd party editor from within iPhoto. If Gimp is capable of creating layered files and/or changes the extension to its own after extensive editing you must take some precautions so as not to lose those edits.
Any time the 3rd party editor requires a change of extension due to the editing you must either flatten the image and/or force a save as a jpg with the same original file name OR do a Save As to the desktop and import that file as a new one. Otherwise you run the chance of saving the edited file and not have iPhoto know it exists.
Do you Twango?

Can I text for free with another iphone if we're both roaming in the USA?

Two of us are going across the border into the US and each of us has the iPhone 4S and iPhone 5. Can we text each other for free or do we have to sign up for a roaming package?

Texting requires celluar. iMessage, which you could use since you both have iOS devices, COULD be free, if you were both on wifi, however if not, then you would need a data plan.

How to create a variant to a report from another program at run time

Hi experts,
when i am using FM : /OSP/REPORT_CREATE_VARIANT to create a report variant from a program then i am getting an error 'For object /OSP/ERPNR , number range interval 01 does not exist ', how should i avoid it or can any one help me out to create a report variant from another program at run time with the results of the program.so that i can execute the report from here with this variant

If i understand you,
- You can use a FM like [RS_CREATE_VARIANT|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/advancedsearch?cat=sdn_all&query=rs_create_variant+&adv=false&sortby=cm_rnd_rankvalue] to create a variant and then use it in the [SUBMIT|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/fa/096d67543b11d1898e0000e8322d00/frameset.htm] statement USING SELECTION-SET.
- But you may also use SUBMIT with WITH parameters which doesnt require variant creation and with much less programming efforts.
- You can mix the two solutions also.
So what is you actual requirement, also look at some documentation like [ Scheduling a Job: Full-Control Method|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/fa/096ce5543b11d1898e0000e8322d00/frameset.htm]

Creat Job for LSMW (periodical data transfer)- idoc BLAORD

Hi,
We are trying to create job for LSMW (thru frame program for periodic data transfer) for idoc BLAORD (Purchasing contract)
When I am running the job that I created, the job is cancelled and the error is:
"Upload from front-end is not possible in batch mode.
Message no. /SAPDMC/LSMW_OBJ_070 020"
How can I correct that? so I will be able to run a job (the job mast run background?)
Thanks,
Tal Sasson

Hello,
I was also receiving the same message /SAPDMC/LSMW_OBJ_070 020 even though I specified in /SAPDMC/SAP_LSMW_INTERFACE the server path. The problem was that in LSMW->Specify Files you have to delete the definition of front-end files and define application server files.
That Flag File (Path and Name) (field /SAPDMC/LSOINP-FILENAME in program /SAPDMC/SAP_LSMW_INTERFACE) is kind of useless since it is ignored anyway and files defined in LSMW object are imported and they have to be read anyway if you use more than one file.
Regards,
Peter

Need help creating actionListener for an array of text fields

I am working on a school project, so I am very new to Java. I have a program which is basically a unit converter. Each unit type has its own tab. I was able to dynamically create text fields in each tab and now I need to add actionListener to each of those text fields. Probelm is, the text fields are not really unique. I guess they're only unique within their tab. So now I am having difficulty referring to my text fields. If you look at my actionListener in the code below, I am trying to refer to it as unitTFs[0].getText() and that's not working. Please help. Thanks in advance.

Variables only have scope in the method (or block) in which they are created. That means if you create a variable in one function, you can't use it in another.
If you want to use a variable in two different functions, you have to make it a member variable.

How to create clean text for the web in Photoshop/Illustrator

I am puzzled to death on how in the world to get clean text for the web in Photoshop/Illustrator, particularly white text. I want my text to turn out exactly like the text at this website: thepainteddoor.org
If you scroll down to the bottom of that page, notice the titles "Featured Media", "Social Networking", and "Contact Information". They are all .gif images. I have tried to replicate what these images look like for about 3 hours now to no avail. Can anyone tell me how to do this? It just looks like a simple outline or drop shadow, but I can't get it to show up like that. If someone could help me replicate that effect with text (aka make it show up clean as an image), I would graciously give them money through PayPal*.
* = I will only give cash if it will replicate it exactly (and I mean exactly)..and it won't be too much..I'm a poor college student. :-P
Thanks in advance!
Thomas

You would do it the way I created it:
Select the Text tool in Photoshop and set the font and parameters as I have listed. Then enter whatever text you like. It will be rendered over the top of the lower layers you may have in the document. Save as an image of the appropriate type and you're there.
Note that "lower layers you may have in the document" could conceivably be none at all (i.e., you render the text over a transparent document). You could imagine saving that as a .png with transparency and get light text in an image that could then be put over the top of anything else. The alpha mixing will see to it that the edges smoothly blend with the background. I haven't actually tried this (I usually do try my own suggestions) because of lack of time right now.

Using numbers for roster information. Imported from another program. Now seem to have extra headers, one listing name, address, etc. & another A, B, C. They don't mesh & can't get rid of either. All info there, but can't change width of columns.

I think my problem is that I have inadvertently created three tables (I only want one). I have included a screen shot of the light grey line under B and the words Table 1 behind it.
