Effect controls... Too many clicks!

This one's relatively minor: But once you click on a clip to launch in in the viewer, say to change its position or scale, you always have to click again on the little triangles to expand the MOTION parameters in order to edit them. Why not have them default to being open to begin with? What do we gain from having all those editable parameters hidden in their little sections?
Again, its a minor quibble, but once you have to do it 100 times in a row in a project it gets annoying very fast.
Maybe there's a way to do this that I missed?
Thanks
Fede

How is Premiere Pro supposed to know which effects you want to work on?  Just because you want to make changes to Motion parameters doesn't mean every editor does.  And if PP opens them all by default, we end up with the opposite problem, having to close some effects so we can easily see the one we do want to adjust.
I think the current operation really is the best overall, even if it's a bit of a pain for your specific situation.

  • Too many clicks required to close a window

    When I click to close a window, too often a menu pops up instead. What am I doing wrong?

    The buttons that were giving me a problem were close X; hide X. It didn't seem to matter whether I clicked on the close, hide or X a menu would pop up with a list of items: Open link in New Window, etc down to Copy Image.
    Now it seems to be working, or my fingers are working! Thanks for the great tip though in terms of closing the main windows and applications!

  • ITunes registering too many clicks! Why?

    When I have the MiniPlayer view going, set to stay above all other windows, I will sometimes try to change the song or pause the track while working in some other program. When I do that, iTunes acts as if I have clicked whichever button I'm on several times, either skipping through multiple songs or, if I'm trying to pause a track, pausing it and then playing it again as though I had clicked twice. It's very annoying, and it's getting to the point where I'm considering finding another media player in place of iTunes.
    What can I do to remedy this?

    I have another clue to this behaviour, though I still can't completely fix it.
    My slide master in PowerPoint has a text box with bulleted text. It goes to five levels (I don't use five, but this is what has been formatted). When I create a slide with other objects on it, delete the text box, and then import it into Captivate, I need to click six times to advance to the next slide (five clicks plus my click box).
    When I go back to the slide master in PowerPoint and then delete two levels of bulleted text, then update my Captivate project, I only need to click four times (three clicks plus my click box).
    It seems that when I delete the text box from the slide Captivate is going back to the slide master for details. If I leave the text box on the slide but leave it empty, then things work almost correctly, except I still require an extra click to continue past this otherwise invisible text box.
    I have fixed this by leaving the text box in PowerPoint, but leaving it empty, as required. I then add my image, etc. into the slide and import it into Captivate. I then add a click box to continue and make sure that it is visible from the very start of the timeline, pauses the slide until the user clicks, and is only visible for a short time (until the end of the slide). This seems to work, although I would love to know how to get rid of this other behaviour (I will try creating an empty slide in the slide master).

    You may have an unwanted extension that is modifying sites (or the toolbar area). Try this:
    Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
    Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Does that flush the tab?

    What you need to do is boot into Safe Mode. Then delete the VGA Drivers.
    After that boot normally and install the latest nVidia ForceWare Drivers

  • Every time I click on the Categories tab or Top 25 tab in the app store, it says 'too many http redirects'

    Every time I open the app store on my iPod touch, it says 'too many http redirects' whenever I click on the Categories and Top 25 tabs. I tried force quitting the app store, that didn't work. I tried closing all windows in Safari and force quitting safari, also didn't work. I reset the network settings, that didn't work either. When I reset all settings, it appeared to work. The tabs were different (it had a Genius tab), but it worked. However, immediately after force quitting the app store (I force quit a lot to keep as much RAM clear as possible), the same thing happened again. Does anyone know a permanent, Apple-supported solution to this problem? And please do not say restoring it. I don't want to start from scratch just to potentially experience the same problem.

    See:
    to many HTTP redirects: Apple Support Communities
    However, it seems to be an Apple/network problem beyond your control

    can someone help us eliminate this annoyance (or bug, i might call it)

    It may be some apps on your iphone that is causing that.
    Nope. The security on iOS means that no app can interfere with the OS or any other app. An app may crash, but it cannot cause any other app to crash or misbehave, and no app can affect system functionality, like networking.
    you could download a virus protecter from the app store if you can acseess the app store.
    Nope. The same security in iOS means that not only are there no viruses (or malware of any other kind) for iOS, but also that anti-virus apps are not possible. They would not be able to scan anything except themselves, which would be singularly unuseful. Thus, there are not actually any true anti-virus apps in the App Store. There are a couple that can scan your e-mail for you, but that is achieved through connecting to the IMAP server where your e-mail is stored. They cannot scan the phone.

  • Note 368612.1 - DB Control Agent Crash : Too many files

    Hi
    I have a 2 node RAC
    The RAC DB Control agent crash after about 4 hours of running.
    Base on my check in Metalink I identified it as a bug (See note 368612.1)
    The agents will open the hc_<inst>.dat file hundreds of times with new file handles before it crashes.
    I cannot stop the database for patch installation.
    But I propose to run a cronjob that starts the agent and stops it after maybe 1 hour.
    This stop / start cronjob will maybe run once every few hours.
    This will prevent the agent from opening too many files and crash.
    What do you guys think of this ?

    Um, have you tried the fix in the note you provided?!?!?

  • Effect Controls - sluggish

    (Newbie).  I was just starting to get to know CS4 when I bought CS5, but I notice with my CS5 that adjusting things in Effect Controls is very sluggish.  If I click on the "100" of brightness (say) and drag left or right, I have to move the mouse about 6" before anything happens.  There seems to be some sort of backlash or hysteresis there which wasn't there with my CS4.
    My system is: PC, i7, 12Gb, 2 Tb Raid0, 64 bit Windows 7 Ultimate.  Could it be that my graphics card is only a GTS250 (1Gb) and I need to invest in a GTX285, or have I got some setting wrong?
    Thanks - Eddie

    No, you won't see it in an FAQ, at least not an official one. I noticed this a few weeks back, and Harm revealed all.
    The 5.0.1 update is a single-issue update, and doesn't fix this particular problem. I would guess it'll be in 5.0.2 or 5.1.0, depending on how many other changes come along. Whichever it is, I don't think it'll be too long to wait, but I have no real idea. Just gotta wait it out...

  • Is it possible to have too many keyframes in one project in Premiere?

    Hi all,
    I'm using Premiere 6 on a Windows 7 ULT machine.
    Is it possible to have too many keyframes in one project in Premiere?
    I'm getting app crashes when I try to re-open a certain project in Premiere 6 and it seems that if that file has over 93 keyframes, then it will not re-open.  But I can re-open that exact same project file with 93 keyframes in it, no problem.
    But if I go any further and create any more keyframes than 93 in a new re-saved version of the exact same file, then that file will not re-open and I get an app crash... you can see screenshots of the two Windows app crash info panels below that I'm getting from three different bad Premiere project files that I've created so far.
    I've tested and tested what is going on here and this seems to be what is causing the bad files.  I've re-created the scenario and re-created files with over 93 keyframes from the same base project file that will still open... as soon as I get more than 93 keyframes in this file, then that newly saved file will not re-open after I close and try to re-open it.
    This is 75 keyframes in one still image clip, 14 keyframes in another still image clip and 2 keyframes each in two other still image clips in a single project file... that is the limit... if I create any more keyframes in the clip that has 75 keyframes, the new file will save and render, but it won't re-open once it has been closed.
    The two slightly different app crash info panels show, in the first one below,
    "Fault Module Name: StackHash_e98d"
    ... and the second one shows,
    "Fault Module Name: PREMINFO.dll"
    ... both messages with a little more different info in each one.  I get either of the two error info panels when trying to re-open all three bad files that I've created with over 93 keyframes in them.  That is, two of the files alternate between giveing "StackHash_e98d" and "PREMINFO.dll" when trying to open them and one of them always shows the "Fault Module Name: PREMINFO.dll" error.
    So even the error messages are inconsistent with two of the bad files.
    I've searched the internet for this error in association with Premiere and I've also searched on this forum and found nothing.  Can anyone shed any light on this?
    Thanks,
    digi

    Bill,
    Even though I figured out a work around, I was still interested to know if these file opening crashes are related to Virtual Memory.
    So on the topic of Virtual Memory... a few months ago I was troubleshooting a different problem in Premeire and I found this information...
    "To improve performance in Premiere Pro, adjust the size of the paging file to a maximum of twice the amount of installed RAM."
    Previous to that time three months ago or so, I had my Virtual Memory settings at the default automatic setting, but I tried setting my VM to twice the amount of installed RAM, and I've had it set that way ever since, just to make sure I'm optimizing the VM performance for Premiere and other apps.
    But that isn't making any difference in this case.  Today I also found information in a search that says to troubleshoot StackHash crashes, one should turn off "DEP" in the system settings for the application with the crash problem... according to the paragraph below, from the second post down by Chris on this tdistler.com page... http://tdistler.com/2009/04/10/stackhash-and-application-crashes-on-windows
    Even though this was written in 2009 with Windows Vista in mind, many things for Vista work in Windows 7... it says,
    "Here’s how 99 percent of Vista users can fix a StackHash failure. I’ll walk you through it step by step:
    Method A:
    1. Open your Start menu and click Control Panel
    2. Browse to “System Maintenance” then “System”
    3. In the left panel, select “Advanced System Settings” from the available links
    4. You should now see the System Properties Window, which will have three sections. The top section is labeled “Performance” and has a “Settings” button. Click this button.
    5. Select the “Data Execution Prevention” tab.
    6. Select the option which reads “Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select”
    7. Use the “Browse” button to locate the executable file for the application you were trying to start when you received the StackHash error, and click Open to add it to your exceptions list.
    8. Click Apply or OK to commit your changes."
    But I tried this and none of the three problem files that I encountered would open... I still got the StackHash_e98d or PREMINFO.dll crash errors.
    So anyway, I'm a ways past that in my project now, just continuing with more keyframes over the number of 78 in separate but identical still image clips... that allows me to successfully work with this project with as many keyframes as I need.
    Thanks again,
    digi

  • Too many objects match the primary key oracle.jbo.Key

    Hi OAF Gurus,
    Currently we are implementing R12 Upgrade , for this we have deployed all the custom OAF Application related files on to the the respective JAVA_TOP folder.
    We have a custom municipal postal application which tracks the Postal Details.
    The page runs perfectly fine without any error in 11i instance, but the same is erroring out In R12.
    In R12 it shows an error as Too many objects match the primary key oracle.jbo.Key[112010 2014-10-01]
    here 112010 is nothing but the postal code id and 2014-10-01 is the Effective Start Date
    We have a custom table as xxad_postal_codes_f  (Date Track table)which contains the postal_code_id and effective_start_date (primary key is combination of postal_code_id and effective_start_date ).
    The Table already contains a row for postal_code_id = 112010  and Effective_Start_date = Sysdate.
    Now we want to update the entry for the same postal code with the Id being same as 112010  and  Effective_Start_date as 2014-10-01 through custom PostCodeChangePG
    at the time of save we are getting an error as Too many objects match the primary key oracle.jbo.Key[112010 2014-10-01]
    The table doesn't contain any of the data mentioned ([112010 2014-10-01]) at the time of insertion, hence there should not be any duplication of primary key but still we are getting the error.
    Please let us know how can we handle this..?
    Below is the code which is getting called on Click of Save button of PostCodeChangePG
    if (pageContext.getParameter("Apply") != null)
          PCodeCoWorkerBase coWorker = getCoWorker(pageContext, webBean);
              coWorker.processApply();
    Code in PCodeCoWorkerBase
        public void processApply()
          String postalCodeId = UIHelper.getRequiredParameter(pageContext, "postalCodeId");
          Date startDate = UIHelper.getRequiredDateParameter(pageContext , "EffectiveStartDate");
         Serializable[] postalCodeData = (Serializable[]) applicationModule.invokeMethod( "insertPostalCodeMajorChange", params, paramTypes );
          finalizeTransactionAndRedirect( postalCodeData );
    Code in Application Module
      public Serializable[] insertPostalCodeMajorChange ( String postalCodeId, Date date )
        PCodeAmWorker amWorker = new PCodeAmWorker(this);
        return amWorker.insertMajorChange( postalCodeId, DateHelper.convertClientToServerDate( getOADBTransaction(), date )
    Code in PCodeAmWorker
      public Serializable[] insertMajorChange ( String postalCodeId, Date date )
        // Get the view objects we need from the application module
        OAViewObject viewObject = (OAViewObject) applicationModule.getPCodesVO();
        PCodesVORowImpl currentRow = (PCodesVORowImpl) viewObject.getCurrentRow();
        currentRow.validate();
        currentRow.setEffectiveStartDate(date);
        currentRow.setComment1(currentRow.getNewComment());
    // Create a new row based on the current row
    PCodesVORowImpl newRow = (PCodesVORowImpl) viewObject.createAndInitRow(currentRow); //This is failing out and gives the error
    // Get the new effective start date as entered by the user
    Date effectiveStartDate = currentRow.getEffectiveStartDate();
        // Calculate the previous period's effective end date
        Date previousEffectiveEndDate = DateHelper.addDays(effectiveStartDate, -1);
        // Refresh the current row (the one changed by the UI) with the data it had at the beginning of the transaction
        currentRow.refresh(Row.REFRESH_UNDO_CHANGES);
        // The current row will now represent data for the the previous period set the effective end date for the previous period
        currentRow.setEffectiveEndDate(previousEffectiveEndDate);
        // Insert the newly created row that now represents the new period
        viewObject.insertRow(newRow);
        applicationModule.apply();
        return generateResult(newRow);
    PCodesVO() is based on PostalCodeEO
    below is the code from PostalCodeEOImpl
      public void create(AttributeList attributeList)
        // NOTE: This call will set attribute values if the entity object  is created with a call to vo.createAndInitRow(..)
        super.create(attributeList);
        if (getPostalCodeId() == null)
          setPostalCodeId(getOADBTransaction().getSequenceValue("XXAD_POSTAL_CODES_S"));
        if (getEffectiveStartDate() == null)
          setEffectiveStartDate(getOADBTransaction().getCurrentDBDate());
    After diagnosing the issue we found that the error is on the code of AMworker file while creating a new row PCodesVORowImpl newRow = (PCodesVORowImpl) viewObject.createAndInitRow(currentRow);
    we tried so many things such as clearing entity cache, VO cache, validating for duplicate primary key but still not able to resolved this.
    Please advice how to insert a new row on the PCodesVORowImpl without any exception.
    Thanks,
    Pallavi

    Hi ,
    One question here , if you are udating a existing record then why you are trying to create a new row
    PCodesVORowImpl newRow = (PCodesVORowImpl) viewObject.createAndInitRow(currentRow);
    Thanks

  • Why is Pages so unstable?  Too many photos

    I'm doing a 75 page book with up to 15 images on a page per client requirement. After about 7 pages the app crashes. Bought a new Mac Pro with 5.5 ram and ample hd space with fresh installs and still crashes. What is going on. Tried with more fresh installs on other new drives with the absolutely virgin Leopard that has been fully upgraded...more crashes.

    I have similar problems. Pages crashes frequently with a large project (90 pages with about 500 photos). This occurs on my PowerMac G5 (4.5GB ram) and also on a MacPro at the local Apple store. This is really disappointing -- I have many hours of work about to be lost. The crashes are random, with the crash report indicating a memory/kernel protection problem. This is clearly a serious bug, and Apple needs to fix it. Based on my experience, its not a user problem or corrupt file.
    BTW, you can look at the contents of your pages project with the Finder "Show Package Contents" option (control or right click on the pages document). In my case it contains image files (jpg) that originated in Aperture as previews, I believe. It also contains an XML file with the guts of the document and finally some other files. The point is that Pages (and Keynote too) have a fairly simply file structure under the hood.
    There was some mention about corrupt photos. I don't think this is the case. However, I often get messages from Pages complaining that an image I attempted to drop from Aperture to Pages is corrupt. It is clearly not corrupt -- this message must be due to some other error that caused a failure. I have seen this enough to know that I don't have corrupt images -- and doubt that other users have corrupt images.
    It is noteworthy that my 90 page document consumes 3GB real memory and even more virtual. This is absurd for a document whose file is only 100 MB. This points to some naive programming and quality testing. Apple needs to test this software on real documents, not just toy problems designed by programmers for programmers.
