Crop image into Timeline?

I have a 234x60 sequence and created a graphic/title in LiveType using a 4:3 template.
I want to crop that LiveType title to 234x60 (that's the only area of the image I need) and paste it into the FC timeline. When I do that, FC scales the LiveType "clip" down to fit its original 4:3 area into the FC timeline. This gives me a little black box in the middle of the frame with the cropped area exposed. As though I were looking at a scaled down version of the original LiveType file.
Is there a way to either crop the LiveType file in LIveType or drop it into the FC timeline and have the system NOT scale it down to the timeline size? I searched the LiveType manaul for "Crop" and found nothing.

Thanks. I see what you mean.
I inserted the clip, then reloaded it into the Viewer and reset the Scale to 100%, then cropped it and everything is fine.
Oh, and the "Helpful" and "Solved" buttons are still broken in the forum so no points for you.

Can't get cropped images into printable sizes I.e 6x4, 7x5 etc

I am fairly new to elements and I am having problems with resizing my images. I have cropped some images and want to upload them to say 'photobox' but I can't seem to get the images into the correct size for printing I.e 6x4, 7x5 etc. I have also noticed that I start with an image that is say 7mb in size yet when it has been edited and uploaded it is 700k and rated as a medium quality image ? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

If you have cropped the image precisely to 6x4, then in the print dialog you need to select the paper size (6x4). If your printer has the capabilitry to print borderless, you can try that as well.

This is about iPhoto: I need to print the FULL IMAGE as shown on the screen: the image is SQUARE (equal on four sides). iPhoto keeps cropping it into a rectangle - THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE! How do I get what I see on the screen in print form???

Using photoshop elements 13 but the option to crop a single image is grayed out and also the option to crop a scanned image into individual pictures is grayed out - any ideas?

The option to crop an image is always grayed out or unavailable - both for single images and when I want to crop scanned images into individual pictures. Any idea what I may be doing wrong?

Did you try using the crop tool to see if it is working? See the tool I am talking about.
I suspect you are in Guided Mode rather than in Quick Mode or Expert Mode.

Crop bmp image into 2 pieces and 3 pieces

Hi!
1. I want to crop a bmp image into 2 pieces and show the two cop image in 2 picturebox.
2. I want to crop a bmp image into 3 pieces and show theme in 3 picturebox.
Can anyone help me?

Hi,
put three pictureboxes to a Form named Form1
public Form1()
InitializeComponent();
//create an image
Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(1024, 768);
//draw something to it
using (Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(bmp))
g.SmoothingMode = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.SmoothingMode.AntiAlias;
g.Clear(Color.Green);
g.FillEllipse(Brushes.Yellow, new Rectangle(0, 0, bmp.Width, bmp.Height));
//and crop ionto the array
Bitmap[] bmps = CropIntoThree(bmp);
this.pictureBox1.SizeMode = this.pictureBox2.SizeMode = this.pictureBox3.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.Zoom;
if(bmps[0] != null)
this.pictureBox1.Image = bmps[0];
if(bmps[1] != null)
this.pictureBox2.Image = bmps[1];
if(bmps[2] != null)
this.pictureBox3.Image = bmps[2];
private Bitmap[] CropIntoThree(Bitmap bmp)
Bitmap[] bmps = new Bitmap[3];
//get a third of the width
int third = (int)Math.Ceiling(bmp.Width / 3.0);
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
//if the last third should be smaller (by 1 or 2 pixels, you could use the modulo operator here too)
if (i * third + third > bmp.Width)
third = bmp.Width - i * third;
bmps[i] = bmp.Clone(new Rectangle(i * third, 0, third, bmp.Height), bmp.PixelFormat);
return bmps;
[And dont forget to Dispose the bitmaps when you do not need them anymore, e.g. in the FormClosing event.]

Thorsten

IDCS3 - Paste image into new frame with same cropping offsets?

Anyone know if there's a better way do to this? It used to work in CS2, and (I know this comment won't be popular, but since half the studio I'm trying to convert brings up this point, I'll pass it along <G>), it's always worked in Quark. <G> http://indesignsecrets.com/paste-image-into-new-frame-with-same-cropping-offsets.php Be nice to get this to work without having to jump through hoops. (And please, please don't tell me I need to update to CS4 to get this basic functionality BACK). k.

Thanks, Rob. Unfortunately, I got a new error with the latest script you posted (sorry--not trying to be a pest!!). It says,
Apple Script Error!
Error Number: -2753
Error String: The variable myRend is not defined.
(One thing that's different is I'm working on a different machine than I was the first day I posted about this, but I'm using the exact same version of InDesign. Would this make a difference? I forgot to copy the original script file from the other computer before coming to work today... If I need to do that, I can.)
Thanks for your continued help!

Using Pages 5.2.2: When I drag an image into my document, I lose the related text. I can crop the image, make it smaller, but it is surrounded by blankness that overrides the text. Help?!

Using Pages 5.2.2, MacBook Pro, OSX 10.9.5: I cannot drag an image into my document without it obliterating the text. Even after re-sizing, the image just becomes small inside a larger blank area that appears to cover the saved text. Help?

How to import a jpeg image into premier elements 12?

how do i import a jpeg image into premier elements 12?

chuckx
Just for background information, what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on?
The generalized answer is Add Media/Files and Folders/Projects Assets from where you drag the photo to the Expert view Timeline.
But all that can generate a mountain of questions about the photo and the project into which it will be going
a. what are the pixel dimensions of the photo - will or will I not have to resize or crop/resize the photo for the project
b. is the photo going into a project that will consist of photos and videos
c. if video inclusion, that leads to questions about the properties of the video so that you can set the project preset to match those
d. that leads to questions on the best size to have your photo before you import them into this project.
So, one simple question generates a lot of side questions.
Please let us know how we might help to sort out the details for your Premiere Elements workflow and its source media.
Thank you.

How do I place a large format image into Illustrator

I am trying to place a large format image that I created in Photoshop into Illustrator. I have tried PSD, TIFF, and JPG. I have even cropped down the image into smaller portions to try to make it easier to work with. Every time I try to Place the image I get a dialogue box saying,"The file 'Water 1.jpg' is in an unknown format and cannot be opened.' Can anyone help with this?

I would guess the file is simply too big. Make sure the document is in RGB mode. If I were you, I would never submit a file that size at 300ppi for large format. Large or grand format printers only need around 100 to 144ppi at 100% final size. Also, set the Illustrator file up at 25% scale and place the image at 25% @ 300ppi ( image resolution ends up around 75ppi which is still plenty when enlarged 400% to final size ). Getting back to the original error message, it could be the system is running out of both RAM and scratch disk space and cannot deal with the preview required. Better to scale the file down for large format.

How do I insert a pdf file (image) into a project as a picture-in-picture clip that will run for a specified amount of time?

I want to insert a pdf created from a ppt slide into a FCP X project that will run as a PIP for a specified amount of time. I was successful in bringing the image into the project as a clip but the default for the image is one second. When I try to change duration of the clip, I am able to enter a new time length but the actual clip doesn't change.

You select the PDF image in the timeline. You use Control-D and enter the new duration. What happens?

Need to resize to print BUT do not want to crop image content PE 5.0

I have scanned an image into PE 5.0 The dimensions are:
Pixels: 2321x2915,
Document: 7.737x9.717,
Resolution: 300.
I want to print this image so it fits in a 5x7 frame. It's a portrait and there isn't any room to crop to fit without losing valuable image content. I've tried everything (I think); using my printer options to print to size, resizing in PE 5.0, etc. I still end up with a 'cropped photo'. I tried scanning to a 5x7 size and I still get an irregular size image that won't fit in a 5x7 frame. Is there any way to scale the dimensions of this photo, maintaining aspect ratio, to fit a 5x7 frame without cropping any content?
I have spent hours and hours trying to figure this out (very humbling experience :) - so any help will be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Mark & Juergen - thank you so much for your responses. Your examples are exactly what I got when I tried adding canvas and that's not what I wanted; it would only add canvas on two sides.
I guess I've worked with spreadsheets too long, scaling to fit the paper is a slam dunk in Excel :) I was hoping for some creative work-a-round but I guess it's time to get a bigger frame and a custom mat. Thank you, I really appreciate your time and expertise.

Why are my cropped images not printing at the size I have cropped them to?!

Hey!
I know how to crop images to specific sizes using either the rectangular marquee or crop tool. However, I am needing to print a number of small images, so want to compile them into one document to save paper. Once the image is cropped, it shows up in 'image size' as being the required size, however, when I copy and paste it into another document in an attempt to arrange it on a page with other cropped images, the images come out at about half the specified size when I print them.
Is it to do with the view I am using, because it doesn't seem to matter whether I set it to 'print size' or 'actual pixels'?
I can't seem to find an answer to this, and I'm sure that I didn't have a problem with this when I was using photoshop more regularly a few years ago!

Hello,
You need to ake sure the target document and the source documents have the same"resolution", in other words the same PPI.
You could also use the Edit>Place command, which will respect the print dimensions of the source photo, but import it as a Smart Object.

Cropped images in slideshow

I have a 27" Imac w/ 1 tb hd, and 10 gig ram. I am running Aperture 3.1.3.
When I create a slideshow with places or shatter, images are randomly cropped. I have tried this When I use Boinz Photo Presenter, My images are fine.

Even when I edited the mask by using the "edit mask" slider, I wasn't able to get the entire image into view. These images were coming in from Illustrator, with transparent backgrounds. When I added a plain white box behind each image, I was able to pull the entire image in without the cropping effect. Still, I'd like to be able to get images into the widget without having to do this extra step!

Combine multiple still images into one clip PE 10

Is it possible to combine mulitple still images into a single clip? For example, I have 50 still images in a video track, each of which is a clip, and I want to combine them into single clip out of them so I can adjust the opacity without having to adjust each of the 50 clips individually. Any information is welcome. Thanks.

Mark,
I had done this but I was hoping there was an easier way to do it within PE, without having to export as a video file and then importing that video file.
One has to think about what PrE is doing with the Timeline, to understand why the Export/Share is necessary to get Stills/Clips to become one file. PrE is a non-destructive editor, in that it does not actually work with the Source Footage/Files, but only extracts data from them. What we see on the Timeline is really a proxy file, representing the edits that we are making. It is stored as XML language, with first links to the Source Files, and then a set of instructions on what we have done with that data. Since the Timeline is but a representation, of what we have done, there is no AV file - yet. That does not come about, until we Export/Share. At that point, PrE looks at the Project file (PREL), and notes exactly what data is required from the Source Files. The program then reads that information, and say gathers the data of Clip # 1 from 00;00;00;00 until 00;05;00;00, for use in the output file. It then moves to say Clip 2, and extracts the data needed there. Finally, the program processes that data, say adding Effects, and then Exports/Shares to a new file - creating that from the data, and the instructions. Still, the originals are not changed in any way - they are untouched, and only read from.
For instance, say we have a 20 min. Source Clip, and cut it into 30 tiny segments, "deleting" material between those. We have not really Cut that Source Clip, and we have not really deleted anything - only in our proxy file, and with the instructions in the PREL. It is the same with Still Images. We see them as separate Clips, with the Duration that we have set, and perhaps any animation that we have added via Keyframing the Fixed Effects>Motion>Scale (Zoom), and Motion>Position (Pan), but other than seeing those changes in the proxy file, used only for display of the Timeline and playback, nothing has been done yet. Then, upon Export/Share, when the output file is created, those changes are enacted on it.
Good luck,
Hunt

URGENT HELP plz! crop image

I have an image
when loaded into my program, i have the getScaledInstance to about half of the size
and then i want to crop on that scaled image icon, how can i do that?
i tried the crop image filter, but it always need to getImage().getSource() which require the cooridnates of the original image (non scaled one)
i do not have the cooridnate of the original image, i just have the scaled image coordinate part for cropping. How can i crop?

Hey, here's some code:
          URL url = getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("some_image.jpg");
          Image rawImage = ImageIO.read(url);
          Image bufferedImage = new BufferedImage(X, X, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
          // Perform your scaling here.
          bufferedImage.getGraphics().drawImage(rawImage, 0, 0, X, X, X);
          MediaTracker tracker = new MediaTracker(this);
          tracker.addImage(bufferedImage, 1);
          tracker.waitForID(1);
          Image cropImage = bufferedImage.getSubimage(X, X, X, X);Is this anymore useful to you?
Warm regards.
