Effect Controls Palette - Docking

Is there any way to open an existing project and have the exact window layout be the same as when you quit the project? IE, if I have multiple Effect Controls windows open when I quit a project, how do I have those same windows open when I open the project again? Toolbars and UI panels keep their place, but not Effect Controls.
I have a Null object that contains a handful of Expression Controls (sliders, checkbox controls). I adjust these controls by using the Effect Controls palette when I have the Null object selected. I know how to open multiple Effect Controls windows and even lock my Null object Effect Control window so that it is always open and I can adjust my controls without specifically selected my Null object layer. The problem I run into is when I restart After Effects and open up my project, my Effects Control palette always resets to a single unlocked palette and I have to manually reset up my Effect Control windows (open multiple instances of Effect Control windows, lock my Null object Effect Controls window, etc). If I save my workspace exactly how I want it, when I restart After Effects, the Effects Controls palette setup does not stick like it was before quitting/restarting. For this specific project, I always want my Null object Effect Controls window/palette to be open and locked, but every time I restart, I lose my setup. Any suggestions?

Unexpected behavior with data control palette after migration to 10.1.3

I recently migrated my adf/struts app to 10.1.3 from 10.1.2.
The app compiles and runs fine in jdev, and the migration had no errors.
When I try to drag and drop attributes from the data control palette onto an existing (or new) page I get the you cant drop that here icon circle with a line through it.
This happens on all my pages and for every attribute in the data control including actions.
Is this the intended behavior? In 10.1.2 there was a section that asked if it should be dropped as a label or text field etc, I dont see that option anymore.
I can still use the component palette  JSTL 1.0 core out and drag that onto the page and then bind the value to binding.attname. this works fine.
In 10.1.3 faces I see that when I drag and drop I get a popup menu which shows the available type of component to drop the item as.
Is this the correct behavior or am I missing something?
I'm using jdev version 10.1.3.0.4 (SU2)
Thanks

So as far as I can tell the issue bioled down to having something wrong with my libraries definition. When would go to the project properties the libraries tab would not show correctly, I was able to remove some libraries and then add them back in. This made the libraries tab in the project properties work, and as a side effect fixed the data control drag and drop.
thx

Problem with premiere pro effects controls

Hi, Merry Christmas;
I have a problem using keys with the opacity effect in the effects control panel; the following pictures should I think make my problem clearer to understand:
The image above shows that the opacity control of the correction gopro clip is at 100% which unless I've drunk too much champagne, is in full view on the screen!
I want to make a transition effect showing the raft appearing in the window of the following picture which is an Indian Granary above the Colorado river.
On my clip of the Granary I zoomed up to the window as to give the impression I get into the granary itself; When I arrive at this moment I begin, with key frames to have
the granary interior pass from 100% opacity to 0% at the end of the granary clip. Unless again champagne is very bad for my health and vision, I should see then the river
and the raft! Well I don't and that gives me nightmares! What is wrong? I add that to have a smooth and regular zoom I have used time remapping on the granary clip.
The granary clip is the one just above the correction gopro clip and overlapping it by the duration of the dissolve shown selected in the picture below(I could of course use a dissolve here, but I want to economize on a supplementary effect)
below is the view with the screen and the opacity of the granary clip at 25%. Normally the clip of the raft should be quite visible then! the red-orange on the right of the screen is the interior wall of the granary!
Thanks for any suggestions... Claude

Stacking in Adobe products is prototypically the top being the final thing you "see". If you have two clips, one atop the other, you will normally see the top clip & nothing from the bottom clip ... unless the top-most clip is given some transparency by say bringing its opacity setting down.
Think of it as the bottom layer "feeds" up to the next higher layer and so on. What comes out at the top is what you will see as the final product.
Much of my work has been short interviews cut with b-roll & stills. The basic interview sits on V1, and I use V2 and only occasionally V3 for the b-roll & stills that I'll cut to for variety, information, or simply interest retention during the running of essentially the audio from V1. This works nice, as I can expand or trim the b-stuff as it seems right while playing back. Then if I want to put in a transition, as part of polishing, I can either trim out the V1 section and move the V2 clip "down" before adding transitions or do a razor on V1 on both ends and add it to the end of the clips. Typically I cut out the section.
The lesson is ... putting anything on a higher track replaces the viewable video of anything under it. Unless you reduce the upper tracks opacity.

Where is controls palette search button in 8.20?

This is embarrassing! I rely heavily on the control and function palette search buttons. I updated to 8.20 and my control palette search button disappeared. The function palette search button is in its normal place. I've looked through Help and the Options popup but don't see a way to enable/disable the search button. I need it back!

10.1.3.1.0 : Nested View Object sould not appear in Data Control Palette

Hello,
I have a strange behavior in JDeveloper 10.1.3.1.0.
I have two View Objects, a parent and a child, that are linked by a View Link.
Although my Application Module instanciates only the parent View Object, I can still see the child View Object in the Data Control Palette.
I've checked in JDev 10.1.3 SU5 and this behavior doesn't occur.
Is this a bug ?
Thanks,
Seb.

Hi,
I tried to reproduce but cannot. I created a m/d ViewObject that are linked by a ViewLink. I removed the detail from the master tree in the AppModule configuration so that only the master instance is left. Opening the DataControl palette, I only see the master view.
Is the project one that you upgraded from 10.1.3.0? If yes, please try and reproduce in a new workspace

[bug] Can't open new desktop from mission control if dock is on the right side

I can't open new desktop from mission control if dock is on the right side

I recently moved my dock to the right so I didn't know the + sign would switch sides. I normally run around that many too depending on how large of a stack whatever I am programming is using.
Anyways, thanks for the help

Key frames effect controls and Fast color correction

I just learned about keyframes and gradual transistion of effects and i like that a lot.
Putting it in practice using the Fast color correction feature ; I seemed to miss the key navigation bar (I hoped to find it on the right side of the Fast Color corrector title line or ??? in the effects control panel)
I guess I'm looking at the wrong end of the world, or do keyframes not exist for fast color correction, I seem to notice the keyframe navigation for time Remapping and opacity..... where did I lose the keyframe navigation bar for fast color correction ???
Pro CSS3 on windows XP fully patched
hoping very hard I'm just looking at the wrong side of the world
please give me a hint.

You will find links to many
free tutorials in the PremiereProPedia that will quickly show you how things are done in Premiere Pro, including how keyframes work.

ADF - New columns in DB table need to be reflected in Data Control Palette

I am new to ADF. I am editing a JSF that does add and edit to data in database table. I added new columns to the table and need to modify the JSF accordingly.
I have not been able to find info on how to take a new "snapshot" of the database table that will reflect my new columns in the DataBindings.cpx.
Can someone steer me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Chris

Chris,
if your business service is ADF BC, then synchronize the EO with the database for it to pick up the changes. Once this is done, go to the VO and add the two new attributes. Right after that the data control palette will show the new entries.
If you use EJB as a business service layer, change the entity classto expose the two attributes, re-generate the session facade ad then re-generate the data control.

Current swatch in control palette

I think it would be nice to have the active swatch displayed in the control palette, just like the other information about whatever object is selected. Unless I am mistaken, the only way (in CS4) to see the color of a selected object, or of the selected type, is to open the swatches or color palette.

Good point. What would be more helpful to me, though, would be more detailed information than that. I can't tell the exact percentage tint of a swatch from the toolbox. It is only in the swatches and color palettes as far as I know.

How to create new control palette?

i want to create a new control palette,how to do it?

When in labview bring up the control pallete and tack it down. Next hit the button beside the search key at the top. Then hit edit palletes. You can then start a new setup if you'd like.

Anything dragged from data control palette squeezes text out of jsp page

Hi,
I am using JDeveloper 10.1.3.4. When I drag-and-drop anything from the data control palette onto a jsp page, then any template text on the page will be gone in the Design tab of the page, only the component from the data control palette is visible. The template data is still there though, as can be seen in the Source tab. This makes the Design tab unusable if I want to edit the text on the page. If want to drag-and-drop another component from the palette, I am not able to drop it in desired place since the page text is not visible.
If these are relevant: the page is a jsp page and the tab libraries used in the page before the drag-and-drop are:
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%>Besides the text on the page, I also had a JSF HTML command button added to the page:
<h:commandButton value="Quit"/>After the drag-and-drop the ADF tag libraries were added by JDeveloper, and the directives became:
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html" prefix="h"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core" prefix="f"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces" prefix="af"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/html" prefix="afh"%>Is there any incompatibility between the elements from the different tag librarries? How to fix this problem? Or anybody had the same problem before and solved it?
Thanks!
Newman

Shay,
Thank you for the advice. I was using jsp pages. But I also tried jspx and had the same problem. I wonder if it is a problem with the tag library or with the JDeveloper software. When I create a new jsp page, at the step where the available tag libraries can be shuttled from left to the right, sometimes on the right side there is only JSF HTML but hot JSF Core, but JSF core is not on the left side either. Yet if you click finish and check the source tab you would see both directives for the two libraries are in the page.
When building the pages, all the tags are created by JDeveloper. I do not have the freedom to edit the code because I do not know the tags. If I knew how to directly edit the tags, I can forget about the Design tab. But at least for now I am dependent on the Design tab.
There are many questions on my mind such as the difference between <form> and <h:form>? Is it OK to mix all these tags from the different tag libraries in one page? What is the difference between the JSF HTML CommandButton and the ADF FACES Core CommandButton, and which one should I used in what context? And many many other questions. Are there any Oracle documents that cover these topics and systematically explain and teach the use of these tags? I just found documents for 11g, one of which, by its title at least, looks like a book for such purpose. But it is for 11g.
Many thanks for your guidance!

Duplicate top level entries in Data Control Palette

Hi
I'm not sure when this happened, but I have just discovered that my local facade is now appearing twice in the Data Control Palette.
Anyone know why this should be?
I have made a stab in the dark and checked the DataControls.dcx and similar files in the model project, there only appear to be one reference there.
Tom

When you create DataControl from SessionBean parser
goes through that Bean and adds in interface all the
methods that have different signatures. Only if you
use refactoring from the pallete when renaming the
method signature from session bean method in the
interface will be refactored too. That's all. I don't
think it is a bug, but I agree that it could be
solved in better way.
Regards.Are you saying that if you don't use refactoring to alter a methods name or arguments then when the Create Data Controls is run it simply looks for new method signatures, ie the name and argument as one, and adds those?
If this is the case, then surely it should remove ones that no longer exist, ie the old one, thus there would still only be one definition. At the end of the day, manually altering a methods name or argument list is surely no different to using refactoring.
As has been pointed out if you chose to alter the name/arguments manually unless the interface and class method names/arguments match compilation would fail anyway.

Adding tables not reflecting in data control palette

hello
i am using jdev 10 g and oracle xe
i connected the database to the new aplication, then i can now use the datas but in the middle of my work i want to add another table, how can i add the new table in the data control palette so i can continue my work.
i am doing my project all over again because i always forgot some tables that i needed.
can you give me the steps in adding the tables. the REFRESH button also doest work for me
thanks!

You didn't mention what technology you are using to access your database, but assuming it is ADF Business Components - then you can create a new entity and view at any time for more table.
Also make sure to edit your application module and get the new view object exposed in the data model.

Generate text from the effect controls

Is it possible to generate text from a textfield (or something similar) from the effect controls?
I have an Adjustment Layer with a custom effect on it with a Slider, two Color pickers and four Checkboxes.
Can I somehow add a textfield that the user can input text in, and then link this to a text layer in the composition?
The reason I want this, is because the user can add all the information in one effect, instead of having multiple text layers to edit.
I don't think there is a textbox for this, but is there anpther way? Let's say I add an effect that has a dynamic name, that I can link up to the source text of my textlayers in the composition.
Any help would be much appreciated
Eirik

Thank you for fast reply!:)
Ok, then I guess it can't be done, not the way I hoped anyway.
This is the effect I have made. I have linked the properties to other layers.
What I wanted was an input field where the user inputs for example "My Title". The source text of my text field in the composition would then update to "My Title".
I know I could probably do this by code, but then the original point kinda disappears. It should be easy for the user to adjust the settings under one effect, instead of having to adjust it multiple places.
I guess the user have to edit the textfield in the comp by actually going into the layer (doubleclick it/highlight it with the text tool etc.) unless you have a genius workaround? (Please say you do:P)

Data Control Palette in Jdev 10.1.3

I have a struts project, and an ADF model project in my workspace. I created a new Data Page. My Data Control Palette shows the ADF components available from my Model Project. But, I cannot drag anything onto the page like it seems to be possible from the documentation:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/collateral/papers/10g/ADFBindingPrimer/index.html
I know the screenshots are for 10.1.2 but I expect it to be similar. I don't see the "Drag and Drop As" dropdown. Nor do I see a UI model tab in the structure pane. Am I missing something?

No luck with new projects. I created a new workspace - selected JSP, Struts, ADF. Created one App Mod in the Model. Created One ViewObject based on a simple select query. Added the ViewObject to the AppMod. Opened the struts-config.xml under the ViewController project. Dragged a DataPage from the component palette. Double clicked the new page. Completed the wizard with default selections. Opened the new JSP in design view. My Data Control Palette shows the app mod with the view under it. I try to drag the View onto the page, and the circle-slash icon appears and does not allow it to be dropped on the page. I can't drag out the attributes, operations, or anything at all from the Data Control Palette. I don't see any text printed on the Java console run from jdev.exe.
