Curious how to track stuff in Motion 3

I was just wondering how would I track a picture to a movie object? I know this is a broad statement but I can't figure it out. Thanks!

Here's a short video tutorial:

How do you add the motion path of a tracking point to a separate clone stamp?

How do you add the motion path of a tracking point to a clone stamp without the clone stamp assuming the same initial/continuous positions of the tracking point?
Is there a way to keep the clone stamp's initial position and then add the path onto it?
I am using the clone stamp to remove unwanted duct tape that was used to keep lights on a wall.

I have spent two days trying to find a solution to this exact same problem. I have seen some overly complex solutions that probably work but trying to figure out the explanations is like trying to understand someone describe drag coefficients of rotary wing aircraft. While I am sure they work, they are way above my comprehension. I wanted an intuitive and straight forward solution for something that shouldn't require some arcane technique to fix.
What I did:
1) I used the Clone Stamp tool to paint over the spot on the wall I wanted to remove.
2) picked a more easily discernible point of reference for Tracking. In my case, I used a poster on the wall.
3) As per the instructions here, https://www.video2brain.com/en/lessons/removing-an-object-with-clone-stamp, I pasted the Attach Point data from the Tracker into Clone -> Transform - > Position
However, that didn't work for me as the object I was painting was not the object I was tracking. The solution from the video was simply moving my cloned spot to the tracked object instead of leaving it where I wanted it. So...
4) I then manually adjusted the Anchor Point of the Clone back to the original spot I wanted to cover.
I played footage and the cloned region successfully moved with the spot I was covering.
This is what I was able to figure out. I'm not an advanced user. I only use After Effects every couple of months when I need to fix minor things in footage, so I've only learned to use what techniques I need for the job at hand. No doubt, experienced users may shake their heads at my simplistic fix. I'm sure my technique would be wholly inadequate for situations far more complex than fixing spots on a gray wall, which is why my eyeballs cross when reading suggestions that seem way more involved than one would expect for something as seemingly minor as this. It's just a spot! It should be super easy to remove, right? Well, that's what I was looking for and that's what I came up with. I hope it helps.

How should I output tracking data from Motion 5 to use it in Aegisub

I'm a subtitle worker and I really need to track some hard to track objects and mark with subtitles for them. So I wonder if I may use the tracking function in Motion 5 and output it into a txt file or something like that and use it in the Aegisub which is the subtitle software I would always use. Thanks in advance.

I've solved the problem. In my process, I wrote the same code from the report and put the results into a cursor. After that I extracted all the data I need from cursor.
It is something like this(the code from my process):
DECLARE cursor my_cursor IS
SELECT id_person
FROM ...
WHERE...;
line my_cursor%TYPE;
BEGIN
open my_cursor;
fetch my_cursor into line;
while(my_cursor%FOUND) LOOP
insert into associative_table
values(line.id_person)
END LOOP;
CLOSE my_cursor;
END;

How to create creative, unique "motion" typography

Hello Apple Support Community friends,
Please bear with me, I am new with Motion 5 along with Final Cut Pro X. I would like to learn how to create interesting use of "motion" typography in Motion 5. And how to import the finished Motion project file into Final Cut Pro X.
I plan to put in some unique motion typography in different footages, and combine them in one Final Cut Pro X.
Can anyone help me to point me as to how to do this way? I also would like to import some of Adobe Photoshop files of creative typography files (also which file works best in that case... .TIFF or .PSD)
Please give me some guideline and steps to make it work. Then I will be doing some series of experiements to figure out what works, and what's not.
Any assistance and help would be deeply, deeply appreciated.
Thanks!
Brian
P.S. I am trying to find a good handbook on Final Cut Pro X and Motion 5, and some sort of theory and practice... so that I do the right approach, not the wrong approach all the way. BTW, I am Deaf. Thanks once again.

Bonjour GFXZen,
The easiest way to get your text into FCPX is to start with a blank Final Cut Title in Motion. Once you save it, it will show up in the Title Browser in Final Cut Pro X. Of course you can utilize text in any of the blank starting files, so don't think you are limited by the blank project names. Like I said this is just a good starting point.
As for the file format question, you can use Photoshop to create images (or text) and then import those into Motion as PSDs or TIFFs. Keeping the images as PSD will give you some advantages, especailly if you expect to go back and make revisions, but if you are creating simple elements, either one will work (I'll let others argue about which is "better".) Layered PSDs are also popular because people use them for basic layout befor animation. Once you've created it you just import it or drag and drop it into Motion. Then animate.
To give you an example to that of footage I saw on, I believe on vimeo the other night. It is very intriuging and interesting, indeed. Very simplicity and efficacy. I really enjoyed them. I love the use of typography with motion matching done in it. Hopefully that you understand what I am saying. I have over 700 footages of my recent European vacation, both by land and sailing on cruise from Spain to Italy on a 12-days vacation. Of course, I don't plan to include all of these 700 clippings into one large project inside Final Cut Pro X and/or Motion 5. Definitely would like to do lot of interesting experiments with interesting use of typography along with motion matching.
Example of what I really like and enjoyed this one:
Live The Language in London
http://vimeo.com/18967093
I like anything that is simplicity with ease. Always like things simple with specific message come across at all once.
-Any Motion 4 tutorials you can find (Google is your friend). Motion 5 builds on the previous version, the UI is different but you should be able to apply any techniques in older tutorials to Motion 5.
I didn't say I have Motion 4, I have Motion 5. I don't really think anything that made in Motion 4 into Motion 5 are doable, attainable and workable nor editable. I prefer to focus on Motion 5. I get this impression that any legacy files edited in Final Cut Pro Studio, for example, won't work in Final Cut Pro X. Therefore, I assume that it applies the same issue with any legacy Motion 4 files into Motion 5. Or am I misaken just about Motion 4 vs Motion 5. Of course GUI interface between Motion 4 and 5, it is totally different engine. Totally different between Final Cut Pro X vs legacy Final Cut Pro Studio.
As for Google, I did some research, and wasn't sure where to start with. Because there isn't much of anything related to Motion 5. All I see mostly related to Adobe Effects and some with Apple Motion 4, so forth. I also own Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 Master Collection (upgraded to Master Collection from CS5 Design Premium as I own Design Premium for years). I used to do some creative stuff with Adobe Flash (at the time, it was formerly Macromedia long before Adobe acquired formerly Macromedia).
-http://www.applemotion.net/
Mark Spencer is a well respected trainer and he's got plenty of free and paid tutorial, look at some of the MacBreak videos, I know he's covered Typography tricks there.
As for Mark Spencer and Apple Motion website, I see that was included in Apple resource, I believe. The problem is that all of his educational trainings and materials are not closed captioned. I don't see much of Motion 5-related topics. I suspect that he would develop some new educational trianing related to Motion 5 and Final Cut Pro X, and some cases with Adobe Premiere CS5.5 and After Effects CS5.5.
As for term of expermiments, I love to do lot of experiments with my photography stuff. This also includes experiments with all kinds of fine arts paper outputs and all. So, I am not afarid to experiement new stuff with Final Cut Pro X and Motion 5.
In closing, you mentioned understanding the fundamentals is especially very true. Thank you for your help and assistance. I would love to have others' perspective and insights.
Have an amazing summer day!
Brian

How to track the flow of Sharepoint SSRS report requests to troubleshoot slowness

How to track the flow of requests of Integrated SSRS report links in Sharepoint.
We are using SSRS with Sharepoint for reporting purpose. The issue is some of the reports get generated fast and some other reports generation is very slow. When the sql query of these reports RDL file is executed, the records are shown fast.
Also even on clicking the "Add Subscription" link of "Manage Subscriptions" of a report is very slow for some reports, while it is fast for other reports.
I tried enabling SQL profiler to track the requests. I have checked profiler log for the SQL statements with exec sp_executesql. But they are not helpful.
Pls advice on how to track the request of flow of SSRS report request in sharepoint and how to troubleshoot the slowness in "Add Subscription" link, response of some reports.

Hi Pradeesh,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to track SharePoint SSRS report requests to troubleshoot the performance.

How to do this in Motion 3 (or if it can be done at all)?...

Try as I might, I have not been able to figure out how to do this in Motion.
I have a 10-page pdf document. I've imported these pages separately into Motion. I want them to be spaced out and 'standing up' in Z-space.
I want a camera to move around, highlighting 3 different areas - one on each of three separate pages, as per this image I've made up.
(The whole purpose of this 10-20 second clip is just to give an impression of the content - and the 'highlights' - of the 10-page pdf document. I'm therefore not fussy about whether the text will look a bit fuzzy, etc, when the camera zooms in.)
What I want, in particular, is for the camera to begin in front of the pages (i.e. in front of page 1), wait for a few seconds, then move/sweep around the first couple of pages and zoom into the first red area (on page 3). I want it to wait there for a few seconds and then sweep around (or through) pages 4 and 5 and come to the next red area (on page 6), wait there a few seconds, and finally, zoom/dolly through again to the final red area on page 10 where it again waits for a few seconds. At the end, I want the camera to come back to where it was at the beginning, looking at the first of the 10 pages.
The spacing (in Z-space) does not have to be uniform. There could be a bigger gap in front of pages 3, 6 and 10. That's no problem.
If anyone can give me some pointers on how to go about doing this - or whether I'm barking up the wrong tree trying this at all in Motion - I would be very grateful. I have googled, scoured the Motion manual, etc, etc, but cannot figure out how to do it. Though I have quite a bit of experience of using FCP, I'm new to Motion. (What a program, btw!...)
TIA,
Hugh

Howdy,
If you switch to the Top or Perspective views, you will be able to see the camera's animation path and edit (and add points to) it.
The animation method I'd most recommend is to use the Motion Path behavior with the speed set to Custom. This lets you define the camera's path and then you can easily animate its progress along that path by keyframing the behavior's Custom Speed value. This makes it really easy to keyframe changes in speed, such as having your camera hesitate at each image.
Or you can even use a Motion Path behavior per segment of the camera's journey. This allows you to have more flexibility with editing the timing in the Timeline.

How do I create 2 motion tweens for one line of text? the text needs to "fly-in-right", I can do that,

how do I create 2 motion tweens for one line of text? the text needs to "fly-in-right", I can do that, then it needs to "fly-out-bottom" again, I can do that, but not on the same line of text...any ideas...

my question
1- there is any way to assign the Fetch process to specific region so the process take all item in these region only.
2- how can create manual process to fetch row into specific items in page ( i tray these code
SELECT col1, col2, col3 ....
INTO :P1_ITEM1, :P1_ITEM, :P1_ITEM...
FROM table
WHERE id = :P_id ) but no data retrieve .
I do not think that it is possible to have more than one Automated Row Fetch process in a given page. See the thread:
ORA-01403: no data found : Unable to fetch row multiple automated row fetch
On your second question, the manual process should work provided:
P_ID has a value when the process executes. You can do it this way:
i. Make this process as a on-load After/Before header process
ii. Make sure that P_ID page item has value when the process executes (set it from another page or before the pl/sql process executes)

How to track Service Item in Install Base

Hi,
How to track a Service Item in Install Base. If I'm right, when we define the item as Service Item in Inventory, Install Base Trackable cannot be enableed...
Scenario:
Customer is doing some services to its customer which has a contract for 1 Year. So we are creating service as Service Item in Inventory and then we create a contract for this service item.
How do we track this in Install Base?
Please help
Thanks & Regards,
Pavithara R.

Hi,
A service item by definition need not be tracked in IB. The service may be provided on a machine or asset which will be tracked in IB. Since service item is not a tangiable item, it is not IB trackable.
Kindly explain the business scenario to track the service item in IB.

How to track changes

Hi friends,
I am a XI consultant. My query is regarding how to track the chages.I heard that CDHDR and CDPOS tables are used to store the information regarding the changes made to the objects/tables in SAP.My scenario is i have a table having few fields related to P.o and a flag indiacating Insert/Update/Delete, so upon the creation/upadate/deletion of a P.O(related to perticular WBS Element) i want the data to be transfered into my table automatically.
Is there any standard transaction available to do that....means i want to track all the P.Os under a perticular WBS element..
If not Do we have to write a Abap program and use CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_HEADERS,CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_POSITIONS functions to store the data into internal tables ?????
Regards,
Gowtham K.

HI gowtham,
Yes, u are right,
we have to right some abap code.
"CHANGE DOCUMENTS" in SAP Terminology
1 The same thing which u are asking
we had developed here. For Eg : Any change
in the material master will be detected
and a mail will be sent to the concerned
employee.
THIS WILL ALSO DETECT WHICH FILEDS HAVE CHANGED.
IT CAN ALSO GIVE, The Old Value, And The New Value.
2. This Mechanism is called CHANGE DOCUMENTS in
SAP Terminology
3. 2 Fuction Modules are Required.
(They will fetch necessary data from CDHDR,CDPOS)
CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_HEADERS
CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_POSITIONS
4. The First FM gives list of all
records ( with change no) which have changed.
5. Loop at the above and the second FM will
provide the details (old-val, new-val) for
each record.
6. While using 1st Fm, i used docclass as 'MATERIAL'.
BCOS
the concept of change documents is applicable
to other type of documents also (depends upon
customization)

How to track changes on Infoprovider?

Hi Gurus,
Could you please provide the steps of how to track changes on Infoprovider? I had 4 Infocubes (belonging to the same info area) that contains compressed data - but now when I tried to display the data, all the cube are empty - no data were aechived.
I would like to track any actions that were made on those cubes.
Thanks

thanks Kumar for helping me out here
I tried RSD_CUBE_LOG_DELE function module - It came out "no logs found in the database"
I tried tables RSDRDLOGHEADER and RSDDSTATDELE which provide me deletion informations like user name... but since we have partially archived those specific infoproviders in the same period of time where I think eveything was gone from cube, I am not able to related when and who the data that were not archived were deleted from Infocube
Under manage Infocube --> archiving tab, all the created archiving request are only for certain dates (below 2006). I know that we had data above 2006.
Kindly provide additional inputs.
Thanks

How to track changes for the config done directly in quality client-Reg

Hi,
In our system the landscape is Dev,Quality,Production.
For some transactions we will do the config in dev and transport to other clients or maintain in each client manually.Eg QS41,CI41.
In my case ,I have did the config in CI41 and transported to other clients.But someone user get in to CI41 in Quality client and did some changes. Now how to track the user Id through which the changes has been performed in QA directly.
Regards
SB

hi
you can use SE09 for displaying the transport no where you can see all the request nos ,from there you can check
also use the same transaction Cl41 do some changes like description ,then press the save button ,system will prompt you the previous saved Request No and make a note of it .cancel the request generation ,then you can trace them in SE09
also check whether you can find any change documents is available
