Edit Question Format

I repositioned the content of a Likert Scale Question to
support our template. Several wierd (Captivate 2.0) things happen.
First I centered the page numbering in a bar, when I preview,
the page numbering is not centered, in fact it is higher on the
screen. I played around with the positioning until it displayed
correctly but when I am on the edit screen it is way off.
Secondly, I moved the question and the rating scale and
buttons to the center of the screen with a highlight box behind
them. It appears that the buttons are assigned to two groups for
moving. They sometimes are attached to the scale descriptions
(agree, disagree, etc.) and sometimes they are attached to the
question.
Anyway, once they moved with the rating scale descriptors,
when previewed the objects were all over the screen, and not
located where they were in edit mode.
Another thing I noticed was when I first selected the objects
and started nudging them with the down arrow key, they immediately
left justified to the left edge of the screen, I could not nudge to
the right. I had to drag them. I believe this is where they became
disconnected from the actual screen grid and started previewing
differently. That is edit and preview were different.
I searched the forums and found nothing like this. I hope a
service pack for Captivate appears soon. Captivate 1.0 was buggy,
but Captivate 2.0 has many undocumented features that really
detract from accomplishing the tasks at hand. Rapid authoring is
really slowing down when you have to deal with all of the issues. I
also noticed that the number of issues appearing on the forum
appear to be increasing.
Enough venting. Has anyone experienced this issue and know
what secret part of the screen I am supposed to touch to get
Preview and Edit screens to agree?

Hi Everett
After reading your post, it occurs to me that your Editor
area may simply be showing scroll bars. In this case, you are only
seeing a portion of it. You may correct this by selecting "Best
Fit" from the Stage Toolbar. Actually, after having re-read the
post, I see where almost all your issues could result from that.
As for the nudging bit, if you click the View menu (when
displaying the editor) is
Snap to grid enabled? (is there a check mark next to it). If
so, turn off grid snapping.
Cheers... Rick

It works for other formats.
Please help

Can't Edit Question

When opening a Cap 2 file that already has slides and
quesions slides-- Selecting a particular question slide the "edit
question" button below the timeline is "flashing" and cannot be
selected. I think I have heard of this before with a
workaround/fix. Please remind me!

Okay, I found the problem. question slide was locked, and for
some reason, this makes the "edit question" area flash on my

PRE 7.0 Capture, Conforming & Editing Questions

I have a new Canon Vixia HFS100 (AVCHD) and have just installed Premiere Elements 7.0.   I previously used a Standard Definition mini-tape camcorder and edited the videos with either Windows Movie Maker or Cyberlink Power Director.
Capture Questions: The AVCHD media import option does not require a fire wire / nor does it provide device control. (I LIKE this feature since I purchased a camcorder with flash memory cards so that I could import the media through a card reader instead of having to hook up the camcorder.) I realize now, however that I may also want to import a small segment from a longer scene. Should the AVCHD capture feature have device control? If not, can I also use the HDV camcorder capture function instead?   Does this require any adjustments to my project settings?
Conforming Questions: After I import the .mts files, PRE 7.0 automatically goes through a process that says it is 'conforming' the files.   What does 'conforming' mean? Does this require any adjustments to my project settings?
Editing Questions: The .mts scenes cannot be played back without SEVERE stutter.   Audio is fine, but the scenes video looks like individual stills with 10-15 second delay until the next still picture. Although I plan to upgrade from my 1 GB RAM laptop to a much higher powered laptop within the next month, I am despearate to edit and publish my first set of videos since they are sales videos of horses I am trying to sell. Is there anything I can do to allow me to edit the .mts files with my current 1 GB RAM system? I would be happy to drop to a lower quality video setting just to get this batch of videos edited and produced.
Thanks in advance for your help.

1. Is there anything I can do NOW to get this first set of videos edited / produced on my current laptop?   I would be happy to import as lower quality if necessary.
There are several threads on AVCHD conversion. Unfortunately, I do not recall the conversion utilities recommended. Not shooting AVCHD, I have to admit that I am personally clueless to what programs work, and how well. Others can likely help you there.
2. What configuration wish list can you recommend for either a Dell laptop or desktop?   I will be editing ~40 horse sale videos per month and posting them to YouTube or producing DVDs to mail to prospective buyers.
I have just the ARTICLE for that "wishlist." Harm Millaard is the "Hardware Guru," on the PrPro forum. He gives a lot of great info. Now, it's pretty much geared for the "ultimate" NLE machine, but he does give the reasons, so one can "tone it down" to suit their budget and their needs.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - if I find the threads on AVCHD conversion, I'll share those.

Imovie is limited to its import formats and does not allow for storing video in any rawformat. Which means all videos will contain lossy compression applied to the video-.with no way to edit full format video. Is this statement true?

Imovie is limited to its import formats and does not allow for storing video in any rawformat. Which means all videos will contain lossy compression applied to the video….with no way to edit full format video. Is this statement true? Does iMovie support HD 1080p @ 60 fps?

yes and no!
using the intended Import from Camera routines, iM converts automatically in its very own AppleIntermediateCodec. so, answer is yes.
but …
a) Apple claims , aic is non-lossy intermediate codec. working with proRes in FCPX taught me, there are even less non-lossy-ness codecs
b) iM offers an Archive feature, which is basically a simple Finder/copy operation which 'clones' your SDcards content into some folder on your harddrive; e.g. you can later use these untouched 'raws' in another editor such as FCPX. so, answer is no.
c) when you 'override' the import routines by manually re-wrapping mts into a mov container, iM handles the 'native' h264s ... so, answer is no.
d) adding any effect, transition etc. reduces any interlaced source to 540p. (if you're working with 720p source, res is kept) … so, answer is yes. or, in 720p case, no.
< Johnny Depp's voice >… savvy?
Does iMovie support HD 1080p @ 60 fps?
via Import from Camera? No.
via re-wrapped mts>>mov? I was told yes, some say no.
one thing to be kept in mind when talking about these 'issues':
iM, this 12€, is meant as a CONSUMER toy tool.
it supports AVCHD vers1 (=no 1080/60p, no >24Mbps, no 3D).
fingers crossed, we'll see soon some iM/QT/FCPX update for support of AVCHD v2 ........
the main consumer devices are within the specs, iM supports.
using professional equipments makes usage of professional software (FCPX, AP) optional.
sorry for lengthy answer.

Single Edition questions!

Hi there,
I need an updated, quick and precise answers for these Single Edition questions...!
(1) For what I got until now Single Edition do not allow clients to publish a store like a bookstall of magazines. Is that right?
(2) That said, every app built and sent to App Store is "unique" and has no physical connection with other apps built and sent later. Right?
(3) Even though having Creative Cloud and being able to publish unlimited Folios... There is no way we can do a bookstall??
(4) Even using Html5 resources?
Thankyou all...

1) Correct
2) Correct
3) Correct
4) Correct
A bookstall / kiosk / multi-issue-app is only available for Adobe DPS Pro.

How does Single Edition compare to Professional and Enterprise Editions?
Professional Edition is an off-the-shelf solution designed for customers who publish frequently updated content multiple times a year and require the ability to sell single issues or content subscriptions (as supported by individual marketplaces) through app stores including the Apple App store, Amazon Kindle Fire Newsstand, and Android Marketplace.
Enterprise Edition is a custom tailored solution that meets the individual needs of professional magazine and newspaper publishers, large corporations, membership organizations and advertising holding companies. Enterprise Edition is fully extensible and can be integrated with back-end editorial workflow solutions such as K4 and WoodWing, print fulfillment services, and dynamic rich media ad platforms.
Unlike Enterprise and Professional Edition customers, Single Edition customers do NOT have access or the ability to:
Create multi-.folio applications
Update content embedded in an application once it is published
Sell through multiple market places (Apple App store is only supported at this time)
Access foundational analytics powered by SiteCatalyst
Extend and integrate with other back end services/platforms

Why do I see things set differently in Advanced Actions (F9) than in each slide's Edit Question settings?

After spending 10+ hours of trying to figure out why my first two quiz slides did work, and my next eight didn't, I found the answer as an offhand, btw, comment. The expected action was On failure, Jump to Slide x, which would jump back to the beginning of that content "section." (Quiz slides (two per section) are interspersed with sections of content slides). I finally ran across the advice to "save yourself time" by using F9 to see Advanced Interactions (which is, what, a dialog? a view?). Turns out this was not just a time-saver but the ONLY way (that I've found yet) to see and fix my problem. In Advanced Interactions, I could immediately see that the first two slides were set as I thought, (Jump to Slide upon failure), but the rest were set to Continue upon failure. This, EVEN THOUGH on every question slide, in Edit view/mode on the Edit Question > Options tab, it was set for Jump to Slide upon failure. Why did it appear that way in Edit Question > Options, but not in Advanced Interactions? I set them all correctly in the Advanced Interactions and now the jumping is working correctly (Now I have problems with questions not being reset, but I think I have seen the answers for that in my 10+ hours of reading forums and blogs.)

I shot in 2 formats--editing question

Hello!
I shot a project in 1080i and in regular DV. Both are 16:9, and I'm running FCP 5.1.4 I was wondering what the best way to edit the footage is? Final distribution is DVD so the HDV isn't needed.
What's the easiest way to tackle this project? Locate the HDV and compress it, then edit?
Any help is good help.
Thanks.

Why are you all making this so complicated? My only question is, is whatever you're using to capture the HDV capable of downconverting? If you shot using a Sony camera or deck, I believe they can all downconvert HDV to DV, I know that my Sony HDV camera can. Just do that. If you're outputting to SD, then there's not one single reason to get involved with HDV's GOP structure. The color space between DV and HDV is the same, file sizes are about the same, yet HDV takes a ton more processing power to edit, so just import and edit all in DV. Done. As for the suggestion to import your DV footage into an HD timeline, I think that's a horrible suggestion. YOu're be upconverting DV footage just to be downconverted which would only add possible artifacts. Keep everything DV.

IMovie HD (6.0.3) - Export Quality and Editing Question

Hi guys, i wanted to ask two questions. The first is that i wanted to export videos to upload onto YouTube and the best format for this seems to be the CD-ROM format that is available on the version i have, the only thing is my videos still appear low quality and pixellated even though i am editing good quality videos......i was wondering if i was doing anything wrong/or can do something better?
Also, when i am editing, can i place logos or maybe pictures onto the video e.g. with TV channels they have a logo at the corner of the screen. I also wanted to black out text on screen but i don't seem to be able to do that.
Thanks a lot.

QuickTime has never supported anything more than "playback" of MPEG-1 formats and conversions to QuickTime formats will never include audio.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPEG-1 a "format" created a long time ago.
iMovie 7 can import and convert most MPEG-2 formats (DVD and HD media) and include audio. It also uses QuickTime for the work.
MPEG Streamclip does allow "batch" conversions. Do them while you sleep.

Modifying Quiz Question Format/Content

Issue: When we modify a quiz question in PowerPoint and then
go to the Quiz Manager the entire slide deck reverts to the format
before the changes, regardless of being saved previously.
Has anyone had this happen..please help.
I am trying to make edits/changes to a long presentation that
I need to deliver tomorrow and I keep losing the work I am doing.
Is there a better way to make the changes to the slides?
Thank you,
Scott

You can't modify quiz questions in the presentation itself -
you need to make those changes in the quiz manager itself. You can
adjust font size, lay out, etc on the slide itself, but not the
content

Quiz question formatting

Is there any fix in the works for controlling how Quiz
Manager formats quiz questions/answers? Every time we need to make
an edit and go back into Quiz Manager, we have to reformat our quiz
slides. This is extremely time consuming and frustrating. Please
Adobe, put some formatting controls into the quiz manager (such as
font size), or fix your program in such a way as to not touch the
formatting that we do to our quiz question slides in
Powerpoint.

I have worked a lot with presenter and have manually formated
the look of the questions after the slide has been generated and
have not ever had an error. I have changed location, spacing, font,
and size and added content to quiz slides, all without incident.
Are you using Presenter 6.2? This may be an issue of using an
older version of Presenter.

Multicam editing "open-format" in FCP6??...& can an iMac C2D 2.8 handle it?

Hello. Sorry if this is a stupid question, but...
In FCP6, is the multicam editing feature "open-format"? In otherwords, can you multicam edit HD (HDV) and SD (DV) resolution video together?
I've read that in previous versions (FCP5, I believe), this was not possible. But I believe the timeline wasn't open-format back then either. Just wondering if this limitation regarding multicam still exists, before I plunk down $1300 on FCS2. (I currently am trying to learn FCE4, but realized I may have blundered in that purchase, as much of what I want to edit is multicam in nature--i.e. concerts, interviews).
Also, on my machine, about how many "angles" could I have running in a multicam edit? (I have an iMac 24" Aluminum 2.8 GHz Core 2 Duo). Could I say, do a multicam edit of 2 HD streams plus 2 or 3 SD streams (for a total of 4-5 angles)?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the bump! At least my "open-format" question seems like something someone with FCS2 should be able to answer.
Anyway, your questions regarding my setup are good ones. (Just added some of that to my profile)...
I currently am using a G-RAID2 1TB external drive, connected via FW800 to the iMac, as my scratch drive (http://www.g-technology.com/products/G-RAID2.cfm). (The iMac also has a FW400 port which I use to import video from camera). If necessary, I could always add another G-RAID2 (or something similar), if having two scratch drives would help (it would either have to be daisy-chained to the existing drive, or plugged in via FW400--not sure which would work best for multicam).
Honestly, I'm not sure about the exact formats. I'd have to look into it. But I can tell you the HD footage is from Canon HV20 camcorders, which use mini-DV tape to record HDV. This I have imported into FCE4, using, I believe AIC as required by FCE4. The footage is 1080i, I believe. If FCP6 handles the importing differently or uses a different codec (It doesn't, does it?), I can always re-import, if necessary.
The SD footage is/will be from standard, run-of-the-mill consumer mini-DV cameras. I believe one camera is anamorphic 16:9, and another (must've been an older camera), appears to do 16:9 by simply letterboxing the image.
All NTSC, no PAL.
And, yes, I'd like to avoid having to "upscale" the footage from the SD cameras, for time, pain-in-the-arse, and storage space reasons. (I read somewhere on the web that this was a suggested workaround for FCP5 users). The SD footage will mainly be used for occasional cut-away/alternate angle shots. Would prefer not to have to go thru THAT much trouble for that footage.
Thanks.

Novice DVD editing question

Newbie questions:
In the past i have edited DVD+RW discs on Windows using CyberLink PowerProducer. Is there a similiar product available for Mac? What i want to do is to be able to directly edit burned DVD+RW discs on the fly like this product does.
Otherwise, what is the best product to edit DVD content? Final Cut?
Since i am a novice, what is the best way to rip content from a DVD (made my self from home movies, etc. ), edit said content, and burn to disc?
Thanks for any help!

MPEG Streamclip (free, www.squared5.com) will rip DVDs. Just drag the VOB files from the disc into the Streamclip windows and export to the DV NTSC format. Then drag those files into iMovie, which is probably your best choice for free, novice editing.

How do I convert a PDF (made in Indesign) back into an editable InDesign format?

You don’t unless you want spend quite a bit of money for a third party plug in that will like require quite a bit of formatting.
Where’s the original InDesign file?

Contract Generation question: Formatting, Numbering of clauses, variables

Hi!
I am trying to create a Contract Document Template (for Contract Generation) with Variables
I created some Variable Collections, but when I link them to the Contract Template, they add on with a different formatting altogether, which is neither like the placeholder in the template nor like the template attached to the variable.
My variable configuration was of the type Paragraph.
If anyone has any helpful tips on formatting Contract Document Templates, it would be most appreciated.
Also, how do I ensure that numbering of sections and clauses is sequentially made in the final Contract.
Regards,
Reshma

I was able to fix the problem by making some word document format changes.
Please ignore this question.

Reshma
