Do you use plugins?

I'm new to FCE and I'd relly like to know if someone use plugins and why.
Thanks in advance for the answers, Maurizio.
P.S.: What kind of plugins there are in the cd-rom of Tom Wolsky book?

Yes. Many users do.
Plugins give extra tools to do specific jobs.
Search this forum, there are plenty for FCE and Free ones.

  • Can you use multiple plugins on one piece of media?

    can you use multiple plugins on one piece of media?
    ...so for example have one plugin for a UI control bar, another for tracking, and another for advertising?
    If this is possible how? What types of plugin would each plugin be and what sort of media element would be required?
    Or is this not the correct approach? If not what would the correct approach be?
    Thanks in advance for support.

    I have got this plugin to set it's proxiedElement.
    To do so, I needed to follow David_RealEyes advice too.
    But I still can not acheive what I set out to find out, all I was trying to do was trace the current time of the videoElement, to begin to understand how plugins work. Can anyone advise please? Thanks in advance for support.
    I thought to acheive this I would just need to add  a listener for like this:
    dispatcher.addEventListener(TimeEvent.CURRENT_TIME_CHANGE,  onTimeChange);
    Then write the function like this:      
    private function onTimeChange(e:TimeEvent):void
                 trace('**********onTimeChange: '+ e.time)
    ...But this doesn't work.

  • I´m trying to open an excel file in numbers not being successful. The error msg is unexpectedly error using plugin SFCompatibility can you help me?

    I´m trying to open an excel file in numbers not being successful. The error msg is unexpectedly error using plugin SFCompatibility can you help me? Already changed the extension of the excel document to xlsx an now gives an unknown import error.

    In Excel have you tried saving directly to xls (not xlsx) and opening the xls in Numbers?
    If you have a complicated workbook in Excel that uses lots of Excel's advanced features, Numbers may not be able to handle the import.  It does pretty well on basic things, though.
    If you're just trying to get data into Numbers, then often copy-paste from Excel is easier than trying to open xls files.

    I don't like this approach too much actually.
    I prefer Adblock Plus for Firefox and Privoxy for everything else (uzbl).
    Edit: @Procyon: I didn't find privoxy to be slow nor complex. Could you elaborate what you mean?

  • How to set the File Path to run a javascript using Plugin Code?

    Hi All,
    Im new to Indesign Plugin Development.Can any one help me out with my problem.
    What i want to do is to run a javascript using Plugin Code.When i went through this forum i was able to find out that i should use the IscriptRunner Class to automate this.I could also figure out that the Member Function to use is "CanHandleFile" &"RunFile".
    The first parameter in CanHandleFile & RunFile Member Function is to specify the path of the JavaScript File i suppose!I could also find out that IDFile has to used to set the file path Information.
    But im clueless how to set the Javascript FilePath using IDFile.Can any one help me how to do this?Any Code Snippets Please?
    Waiting for reply.
    Thanks

    Hi,  Andreas<br /><br />  Can you explain this in detail? I found it in your post before.<br /><br />  The content of elements are returned through the Characters callback function:<br /><br />From ISaxContentHandler.h:<br /><br />/**<br />        Receives character data<br /><br />The parser will call this method to report each chunk of<br />        character data. SAX parsers may return all contiguous<br />        character data in a single chunk, or they may split it into<br />        several chunks. But all characters in any single<br />        event must come from the same external entity so the<br />        Locator provides useful information.<br /><br />Note some parsers will report whitespace using the<br />        IgnorableWhitespace() method rather than this one (validating<br />        parsers must do so).<br /><br />@param Chars The characters from the XML document.<br />        */<br />virtual void Characters(const PMString& chars) = 0; <br /><br />  What i have done is implement my own SAXContentHandlerServiceBoss, and in my file XXXSAXContentHandler.cpp, I override the fonctions StartElement, EndElement, and Characters() like below: I add the PMString xmlData to collect the file content:<br /><br />class XXXSAXContentHandler : public CSAXContentHandler<br />{<br />void XXXSAXContentHandler::Characters(const WideString& chars)<br />{<br />xmlData.Append(chars);<br />}<br /><br />void XXXSAXContentHandler::StartElement(const WideString& uri, const WideString& localname, const WideString& qname, ISAXAttributes* attrs)<br />{<br />xmlData.Append("<"); xmlData.Append(localname); xmlData.Append(">");<br />}<br />void XXXSAXContentHandler::EndElement(const WideString& uri, const WideString& localname, const WideString& qname)<br />{<br />xmlData.Append("</"); xmlData.Append(localname); xmlData.Append(">");<br />}<br /><br />}<br /><br />and in my program, I use the code below to call the fonction I overrided, but I dont know how I can get the String xmlData I defined in the XXXSAXContentHandler.cpp<br /><br />InterfacePtr<IK2ServiceRegistry> serviceRegistry(gSession, UseDefaultIID());<br /><br />InterfacePtr<IK2ServiceProvider> xmlProvider(serviceRegistry->QueryServiceProviderByClassID(kXMLParserService, kXMLParserServiceBoss));<br /><br />InterfacePtr<ISAXServices> saxServices(xmlProvider, UseDefaultIID());<br />InterfacePtr<ISAXContentHandler> saxHandler(::CreateObject2<ISAXContentHandler>(kXXXSAXContentHandlerServiceBoss));<br />saxHandler->Register(saxServices);<br />bool16 parseFailed = saxServices->ParseStream(readStream, saxHandler);<br /><br />Can you give me any help?<br /><br />Thanks and regards!

  • Using plugin to display a text field

    How can I use plugin to display textfield?              

    It's a bit more complicated than you probably would expect: You need to
    load the AcroForm HFT and then execute the JavaScript to create your text
    field via the the AFExecuteThisScript() function.

  • Final Cut Pro X witch Blu-ray Burner are you using ...

    Using a Mac Pro Tower like the Mac Pro 2012 or similar what are the Blu-ray Internal Burners do you use ; LG or Pioneer , witch Model Number.
    Creating Blu-ray on the Mac is fantastic but witch brand and model numbers for the Big Mac Pro Tower are you using with exellent results now.
    On the Mac Apple Pro Apps or Roxio Toast Titanium are the only left options who are current and updated , but burners specified for Windows.
    Frustration come when you talk to Apple they say not supported , Burners makers LG or Pioneer will say we dont offer support on the Mac.
    Well if you can create Blu-ray on the Mac but cant get any help to burn it it is very frustrating and Not So Pro if Apple care for the Pro Users.

    I use the new Mac Pro 2013. Final Cut Pro X version 10.1.4 and Maverick OS 10.9.5. An external Blu-ray burner LG BE14NU40. I've use single burn Blu-ray discs from brands like Maxell and Verbatim. That works fine. I have double layers Blu-ray discs not tried. I use it for home video’s.
    DVD single works fine too. DVD double layers I have not tried but will also work i think. Reviews on LG USA stated that Roxio Titanium with corresponding plugin works.
    I'm glad I found a blu-ray burner that works with FCPX.  Compressor 4.1.3 but I have not been working with the LG burner. Not yet!

  • Hi,am not able to open PDF Files in Mozilla Firefox without using plugins...I need Solution

    Hi,am not able to open PDF Files in Mozilla Firefox without using plugins...I need Solution

    Hello,
    Please see the support article below for full information on viewing PDF in Firefox:
    [[View PDF files in Firefox without downloading them]]
    If you want to use Firefox's built in PDF viewer (i.e. not a plugin) then you will need to ensure that any PDF plugins are uninstalled from Firefox and that 'Preview in Firefox' is selected as the Action for PDF files (see screenshot below).
    I hope that helps. Let me know if not.

  • Can imovie11 use plugins?, and if so where is a good place to get them?

    i just got imovie'11 and was dissapointed that there was not a lot of effects. Is there more but i have to click somewhere? Also can '11 use plugins, and if so where is a goow website that i could find some?

    You could find a copy of iMovie HD 06, which has some really nice third party plugin support.
    These people have some great stuff.

    You could check on ebay for copies of final cut express 4, which Apple has just stopped. I just checked and there are a lot of copies around your price range.

  • Can you use the iPad while charging

    Are you able to use your iPad 2 while it is being charged

    yep.
    now if you're trying to charge off the USB of a computer, it'll say 'not charging' even though it does - just slowly enough to say 'not charging'. And there may not be much charging as you use it. Your only limit is the distance of your plugin from where you want to be.

  • Are you using Blueprints search for Flex Code?

    Blueprints (aka Code Search) is one of the options we provide with Community Search with Flex, in both the browser and the CHC. With Blueprints, your search results are restricted to code samples and a brief blurb.
    You can access the Community Search through the Flash Builder help system.
    We're curious to know how people are using Blueprints/Code Search, so can you please reply telling us:
    * Do you use Code Search in the CHC or the Browser?
    * Do you use the Blueprints Flash Builder/Eclipse plugin?
    * If you use Blueprints, do you find the results useful?
    Thanks very much!

    I didn't even know it existed. I'm installing the plugin now. Thanks for putting this out there, it sounds very useful!

  • How to read line number text from PDF using plugin?

    Hi, I would like to know how to read line number text from PDF using plugin?
    Thanks in advance.

    Ok, some background reading of the PDF Reference will help you understand why this is so difficult. PDF files are not organised into lines. It is best to think of each word or character on the page as being a graphic with its own position. The human eye sees lines where a series of graphics (words) are roughly in the same horizontal region.
    In the general case it is difficult or even impossible to answer this. You may have columns with different spacing (but the PDF stores no information on what is a column). You may have subscripts and superscripts. You may have text in graphics coinciding with other text. Commonly, there may be titles, headings or page numbers which are just ordinary text and might count as lines.
    That said, what you need to do is extract the text on the page and its positions. The WordFinder APIs are the way to do that. Now, sort all the words out, using the Y coordinates and size to try and guess what makes a "line". Now you are in a position to find the text (divided into words, not strings) and report the "line number" you have estimated.

  • Can I use Plugin Manager 1.7.3?

    From Apple's Info Page:
    About Plugin Manager 1.7.3
    This update improves reliability for Apple's professional applications and is recommended for all users of Final Cut Studio, Final Cut Express, Aperture, Logic Studio and related SDKs.
    ==================================
    Since Apple is sometimes vague when stating who really needs to use what, so my question is; Even though I don't fall into the above guide lines I do use some plugins for both Apple software, such as QuickTime and third party software such as Firefox, so do/should/could I use this application?
    Thanks...

    Do you use Final Cut (Pro, Express), Aperture, or Logic Studio?
    If not, you don't need this manager.
