Easiest way to fade in text?

Hi Guys
What is the easiest way to fade in a paragraph of text line by line? I'm creating the animation in Indesign, exporting as a FLA file and then converting it to html5 with Wallaby.
This soloution is very glichy. It only works sometimes! When I swipe the page and go back the page with the animation – sometimes this does not work!
Has anybody got any other solutions?!
Any help appreciated!
Cheers

Animation will become a new trade to InDesign users. While Flash didn't really lure many InDesign user into the realms of animation, ADPS will certainly PUSH them over the Edge (notice the pun...)
Keep in mind, that it's just like with photography: a special tool for such elements will be more capable for that task than some restricted features in InDesign. We never wondered why we can't do so much with photo's or Photoshop files in InDesign, except for crops, transformations, transparancy, and showing/hiding a casual layer. Tap your heels twice in InDesign, and you're off to Photoshop, with the original file.
So my guess is that animation will follow suit and therefore will be better off in a separate application (like Adobe Edge, or Mac-only Hype). Maybe a simple motion path or quick and dirty bounce animation will become available (as the Flash-inclined Animation panel already offered). But vast animation is a dfferent trade for competent users, requiring different tools, integrating on the Suite level.

  • Easiest Way to make scrolling text with color

    What is the easiest way to make scrollable text that I can
    set to whatever font I want (embeded of course)
    have it look very well anti-aliased; like most Flash text, not like it's being read out of a regular system or browser window. (the text will be big so no probs)
    have different portions of the text be different colors so I can highlight certain words and leave others alone
    use actionscript to load text content into it
    maybe make (all) the text semi transparent for design purposes
    I'm going to use some action script to load some XML content into the text areas or whatever. Any of you know of any easy ways of accomplishing this? or have a link to any type of tutorial? (at least for Flash CS3 and above of course, along with ActionScript 3)

    Go to Lee Brimlow's website. It has some great tutorials, including one on loading an XML file.

  • What's the easiest way to make scrolling text?

    I'm creating a template to use for a site, and I put an
    editable region inside of a table cell. The problem is some of the
    text for certain pages is more than will fit in the cell. How can I
    make it so the text scrolls inside of the cell? Is there an
    extension or something that will add the scrollbars? Thanks, I
    really appreciate the help!

    You'll only get the scroll bar if the text height exceeds
    300px. Use
    overflow:scroll if you always want scroll bars.
    What browser did you test it in? Some older browsers do not
    support
    overflow.
    What element did you assign the maintext class to? It needs
    to be on a
    block-level element. I would not put it on the <td>.
    You can always add
    a <div> tag inside the <td> if there is no single
    containing tag.
    Yes, the height should match the table cell height.
    HTH,
    Randy

  • What is the easiest way to wrap photos with text in ps CS4?

    What is the easiest way to wrap photos with text in ps CS4?

    InDesign handles text much better that either Illustrator or Photoshop.
    In InDesign there is more than one way to put a frame around a paragraph:
    Select the text frame, go to Object menu - Text Frame Options and set the Inset Spacing to keep the text away from the frame edge.
    Then select the text frame with the selection tool (black arrow) check the Fill/Stroke icon at the bottom or the tool box and make sure the Stroke is selected, and choose a Stroke width from the tool bar at the top of the screen.
    Or you can do it a quick and dirty way by just drawing another frame and place it on top of the text frame. Give this frame a Stroke and make sure the Fill is set to None.
    I selected both frames in this example simply to show that they are two separate frames. The first method (above) only produces one frame.
    Your original question was regarding text wrap, the third example shows text wrapping around the photo.
    Place or type your text. Place your image and go to the Window menu - Text Wrap. You can set the Offset margins individually to keep the text away from the edge of the image.
    For things like this InDesign is definitely the best way to go.

  • Easiest way to create transitions and fade a music track?

    Hi, now that I'm up and running, I'm wondering what the easiest way is to create TRANSITIONS (I couldn't seem to find them as advertised in "View Movie Properties/options")?
    Also, does anyone know how to FADE OUT an added audio/music track? Is it possible?
    thanks very much,
    Dave P.

    I ALMOST found the answer to my own question at:
    http://developer.apple.com/quicktime/quicktimeintro/tools/makeeffectmovie.html
    However, it doesn't quite seem to work for me. The qfx file created doesn't seem to be "recognized as a movie file".
    any suggestions???
    Fading a music track, I'm afraid, seems impossible (in this unfortunately not-too-powerful program).

  • HT3529 easiest way to print out my text messages from one person

    I would love to know the easiest way to print out my text messages from one person, how can I do that?
    I just did the last IOS updated, I'm not sure the number after it

    Printing from the iPhone either requires an AirPrint compatible printer, or an app from the App Store. You would have to search to see if they are free or cost. Also, the printing of text messages would either require you to make a screen shot of the message and to print that as a photo, or you would need a 3rd party software on the computer to copy the entire message to the computer and print from there. There is no native print capability for entire message threads.

  • What's the easiest way to remove/append a line of a text file???

    The line to remove can be any line in the file - not only the first or last one.
    Is there any good tutorial for file operations?
    Thanks a million,
    Serano.

    To remove a line from a text file, the easiest way is to read it in one line at a time and write out all lines except the one you want to remove to a new version of the file. Likewise, to insert a line, you read the file one line at a time and write the lines to a new version, inserting the new line at its correct spot.

  • Is there a montage package in adobe. What is the easiest way to do montages?

    I would like to do professional montages the easiest way. Is there a package in adobe that I can use with my photoshop.  I use to do them on old photoshop 5, was able to have my photos and format on the same page and just move them. But its not working on cs6.
    What would be the easiest way? Bridge? Photoshop? Elements?

    Elements has some sort of collage facility.  I created a Photoshop Photo Collage Toolkit I find easy to use but then I programmed it.
    Photo Collage Toolkit  UPDATED April 30, 2013 Added border option to PasteImageRoll.
    Photoshop scripting is powerful and I believe this package demonstrates this.
    The package includes four simple rules to follow when making Photo Collage Template PSD files so they will be compatible with my Photoshop scripts.
    There are eleven scripts in this package they provide the following functions:
    TestCollageTemplate.jsx - Used to test a Photo Collage Template while you are making it with Photoshop.
    CollageTemplateBuilder.jsx - Can build Templates compatible with this toolkit's scripts.
    LayerToAlphaChan.jsx - Used to convert a Prototype Image Layer stack into a template document.
    InteractivePopulateCollage.jsx - Used to interactively populate Any Photo Collage template. Offers most user control inserting pictures and text.
    ReplaceCollageImage.jsx - use to replace a populated collage image Smart Object layer with an other image correctly resized and positioned.
    ChangeTextSize.jsx - This script can be used to change Image stamps text size when the size used by the populating did not work well.
    PopulateCollageTemplate.jsx - Used to Automatically populate a Photo Collage template and leave the populated copy open in Photoshop.
    BatchOneImageCollage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Collage templates that only have one image inserted. The Collage or Image may be stamped with text.
    BatchMultiImageCollage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Any Photo Collage template with images in a source image folder. Easier to use than the interactive script. Saved collages can be tweaked.
    BatchPicturePackage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Any Photo Collage template with an image in a source image folder
    PasteImageRoll.jsx - Paste Images into a document to be print on roll paper.

  • What is the simplest way to create a text on black background?

    If you are a novice then iweb is a good place to start. It will allow you to create a site quickly with the minimum amount of work. You can then learn more as you go along if you want to. To publish you will need web space somewhere. Thats how I started and now I am studying web design with the Open University and am learning xhtml and CSS, then progressing to Java etc. Good luck and have fun - it is quite addictive once you start.

  • What is the easiest way to show a command line app in an appletviewer

    I'd like to convert a command line interface application to a small applet, for use in an appletviewer. What is the easiest way to implement this.

    I made something like what you are describing for a text adventure engine. It uses a big text area for output and a small text field for input.
    Here's the code
    public class myApplet extends java.applet.Applet
         implements Runnable
         TextArea output ;
         TextField input ;
    public void init()
              width = this.size().width ;
              height = this.size().height ;
         public void run()
              makeComponents() ;
              while( true ) // loop on + on + on
              try { Thread.sleep( 10 ) ; }
                        catch (InterruptedException e) {}
    public void makeComponents()
              input = new TextField() ;
              input.setSize( Math.min( 200, width - 5 ), 25 ) ;
              input.setLocation( 5, height - 30 ) ;
              add( input ) ;

  • What is the best and easiest way to speed up a Mac-MINI?

    What is the best and easiest way to speed up a Mac Mini without adding memory?

    I'd tried to reply yesterday to your question but for some reason it didn't go anywhere and I got a red message box in the Discussion post area with "error." After trying three times, including  log-out, clear cookies from browser (and history) and back in, I still was unable to add my post with links to resources for your Mini, here. And the last time I tried that, the copied text also went missing as I found it gone after considering to make a Text document of it, for later posting.
    Anyway, the http://iFixit.com site has guides on how to replace RAM in the computer you have. Note there are different models shown and from what I remember, yours is the last 'old look' Mini with an optical drive. The model after that is thin, a 2010 model with slot in front for discs; the next one has no internal optical drive.
    RAM specs:  2 - 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM (replace pair) up to 8GB total. Best price would be an online vendor of repute, once you know about what they sell for, you could ask a local mac expert if they could get you a better than retail price. I get ram from OEMPCworld and shipping is about $1. including insurance to my post office box, priority or 1st class. At about half retail. Crucial (website) offers parts, too; and so does OWC (other world computing).
    In addition, I recommended checking into the build specs and quality of the OWC (esales) site for external enclosures with their own power supply, for hard disk drive; for storage and bootable clones on different partitions. And see about Bombiche Carbon copy cloner, it is a commercial product now, not donationware. I've used it successfully to make competely bootable clones on a suitable external HDD (drive should have own power supply, too) A 750GB HDD in a self-powered enclosure that can boot Mac OS X from a clone, is a good start on backing up your upgraded OSX in a way you can clone it back into an empty, wiped or new HDD inside the computer; and it can run from the external. You can't necessarily use a TimeMachine that way.
    This should be your Mini -- check other indicators to be sure:
    http://www.ifixit.com/Device/Mac_Mini_Model_A1283
    A serial number lookup site such as the one I end up using because I had it bookmarked is OK: http://www.powerbookmedic.com/identify-mac-serial.php & also have mactracker http://mactracker.ca
    Anyway, before I time out or exceed post content(?) This is not all I meant to write before.
    Good luck & happy computing!
