[Feature request] Project files

Probably not a new one, but it really bugs me every single time (like one minute ago):
We use CVS. When I open the project then it would be nice if not only new files found in the project's source path were added to the project, but if also non-existant files would be removed.
I'm sick of editing the .jpr file manually.
This request goes along with a request for a better CVS integration. Removing a file from CVS should also remove the file from the project. If I move/rename a class then this action should synchronize the CVS repository too.
Just wanted to make sure that 9.0.5 does a better job there.

Hi Brian!
Thanks for your reply!
Do you mean you by doing a cvs update or
otherwise deleting them outside JDeveloper? Yes!
If you delete ordinary .java files outside JDeveloper
and open a project containing non-existant files,
they are not immediately removed from the navigator -
JDeveloper doesn't do any kind of scan on the files
in the project on start up to see whether they exist
(unless you have the project configured specifically
to do this). I have the "Scan source paths to determine project contents" already activated. It adds new files alright. Non-existing files are not removed. But this would be nice, because:
However, at the point you try to open
the file (i.e. double click on it), it gets removed
from the navigator. Only if it's a Java file. If it's, say a ViewLink's xml file, then it is not removed from the project by simply opening it. And in that case - as I told you earlier - the options in the file menu (erase from disk and remove from project) are grayed out. So the only option you have in order to get rid of these entries is editing the .jpr file manually. Which is tedious.

Feature Request: Shortcut files to web pages should show the website's favicon

If I'm viewing a website, and I drag it's favicon in the address bar onto the desktop, then a shortcut is created to the website. But, the shortcut always has the generic "@" icon. The feature request is to change the icon to include the favicon which I dragged, so for example, if I drag the Apple favicon, I would end up with a shortcut which looks like a document with the Apple logo on it.

Feature Request: Project Manager Trim Compatibility with all formats please!

It's 2013, Premiere Pro CC is out, and is more "Final Cut Pro" than ever (thanks Adobe), but there are still some basic things that need to be fixed. This is a DOOZY!...
With DSLR media being used pretty much everywhere, the inability to created trimmed projects using Project Manager for H.264 clips (and GoPro clips, and more!) is simply insane. Seriously?
Help me Adobe.... please...
thanks

Actually, Kevin works right across the San Francisco Bay from where I live. So yes, he is here in the USA.
You will occasionally get some answers around here from people with Indian names, but we are happy to have them on the forums.
The conversation about how to deal with the various codecs has been going on for some time, and the more people who request the feature, the more likely they will get it done. I don't like to say that the squeeky wheel gets the grease, but pretty much? It does!
I know they are thinking about it because of some of the comments I have seen and emails I have received. It appears to be fairly complicated, but personally, I think it is well worth the effort.
I would like to be able to ingest subclips from Prelude without transcoding (I don't use Prelude because it is useless to me without this feature). Once ingested, if I only use part of a clip, I want it trimmed in the Project Manager to just the footage I might need in the future if I have to make minor adjustments. And yes, that includes handles. So if handles solve part of the problem, that's fine.

Feature Request: Offline files for Creative Cloud Mobile

It would be nice to store select files offline to show as a portfolio. While apps like Adobe Ideas and Photoshop touch can sync work with the creative cloud, the creative cloud app does not allow this even for select files. Being able to sync selected files and folder would improve this app.
Thanks

That is not off-line help, it is simply a PDF file full of links to on-line resources. It is next to useless. I want to be able to look at teh help document and get answers to questions, not links to answers.

Feature Request: Standard Keyboard Navigation in Media Browser and Project Panel

It's been a while since I've had time to submit a feature request. I've wanted to see this one for a while. If you agree, please submit your own feature request here: http://www.adobe.com/go/wish/
System Navigational Keyboard Shortcuts in Media Browser and Project Panel
Windows (and I'm sure Mac) has a standard set of keyboard and mouse navigational shortcuts for keyboard and mouse. I'm so used to using them in daily browsing (both in Windows Explorer and in any web browser) that missing them in the PPr Media Browser, or getting a different result in the Project Panel, is still very jarring and slows my workflow (even after having used Premiere Pro [again] since version CS4).
I propose that the Media Browser and Project Panel should honor the OS defaults for keyboard and mouse folder/file navigation. A few of the standard (Windows) keyboard and mouse navigational shortcuts are listed below (listed in order of most helpful to my own work):
Moust Back Button = "BACK"
ALT + LEFT ARROW = "BACK"
UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT = steps through the various folders within the view.
UP, DOWN walks through the directory tree while RIGHT expands the currently selected folder and LEFT contracts that directory (twirl down, etc).
ENTER opens a folder.
ALT + UP = "Folder Above"
ALT + RIGHT ARROW = "FORWARD"
F2 Renames a folder
ENTER "takes" that name to the clip. (current functionality used ENTER to rename a file/folder).
ESC cancels the renaming operation.
Pressing Enter on any piece of Media or Title, etc should take an "expected" action acording to it's context. (i.e. ENTER on a video clip would load it inot the Source Monitor. ENTER on a Title would open it in the Title Editor. ENTER on a folder would take us into that folder).
These functions exist in both Windows Explorer as well as most modern Web browsers. When browsing files and Project folders, it's what I've come to expect. It's muscle memory, if not intuitive. I realize that many of these keyboard commands are already in use in other windows/panels of the application, therefore, these commands should be Panel-specific (i.e. ALT+LEFT works differently in the Media Browser and Project Panel than it does on the Timeline/Sequence). And as always, when making such changes (i.e. changing the behavior of ENTER to F2), this set of keys should be highly configurable based on preference:
Preference:
checkbox: Use OS-specific navigational keyboard and mouse commands in Media Browser and Project Panel
checkbox: Use the (very few) "classic" Adobe keyboard commands in the Media Browser and Project Panel
The most common habit I find myself doing in the Media Browser is clicking the BACK button on my mouse—only to realize, yet again, it doesn't work that way in PPr.
The most common habit I find myself doing in the Project Panel is pressing F2 to rename a folder/bin. Of course that doesn't work. And when I've renamed it, I press ENTER to save the name, but that only moves me to the next folder ready to rename it, too. I also find, out of habit, I try to navigate the bins using the arrow keys and then open the bin/folder using ENTER. Instead, my bin is asking for a new name and I hit ESC to avoid renaming it—now THERE's a shortcut that works the way it should.
I realize this feature may be controversial to some, since it's not the way we're used to doing things in PPr. However, I'm sure there are just as many out there, like me, who are confounded as to why PPr has never worked with the "conventional" navigation shortcuts found throughout the rest of the operating system, be it Windows or Mac.

Nice ideas Jeff.
There is a site - Flash Catalyst Wishlist/Ideas where you can post these ideas so that the community can vote on them.

Feature Request. Please, please, please make file name a sort option.

I find it a glaring omission that one cannot sort by file name in
PE or Organizer.

We're pretty much just users here. You should post your request using Adobe - Feature Request/Bug Report Form.

Feature request : import of multi-line notes in CSV or tab-delimited file

This is a feature request to the AddressBook development team:
Following a question posted here and asked to support (thanks to Barry and Julia from ADC), it turns out that AddressBook is not ready yet to import multi-line notes from a CSV or tab-delimited file.
I would like to kindly suggest the AddressBook development team to update the import methods for such flat files to parse the text of what is assigned to the Notes field, and convert documented escape sequences to their pre-determined corresponding special character.
I would think that the following would be pretty easy to implement, and easy for the targeted audience (enthousiasts power-users and up) to remember:
"\n " : mark a new line (same as ^p in Word)
"\t " : replace by a tab
I would keep the trailing space to avoid problems with DOS-type file path problems.
and of course...
"\\n " and "\\t " for whoever would want to import notes about \n and \t
For example, in a Notes column, the text:
"Escape sequence \\n :\n move the text to a new line\n \n while escape sequence \\t :\t move the text to the next horizontal tab"
would give the following (just consider text between <Note> marks):
<Note>
Escape sequence \n:
move the text to a new line
while escape sequence \t: move the text to the next horizontal tab
</Note>
Thanks for reading...
Frédéric Denis

The developers do not necessarily read these USER discussion pages. If you want to make suggestions and know they will be read (which is at least a step towards implementation) use the OS X feedback page.

Feature Request: AME Watch Folders file type filter

Hi,
maybe I'm posting it to the wrong forum. If so, maybe some moderator can move this thread to the correct forum.
I'm exporting Quicktime Reference files from Avid, which creates two files: .mov and. wav. Since I'm exporting it to Watch Folder AME automatically converts the wav also. But would be useful to "tell" AME only convert files with mov extension. It's of course possible later to erase encoded sound files but would be convinient to point out only the file types which require converting.
thank you,
Revenger

Feature Request // Book Module: Export as indd file and management

Book Module: Export as indd file and management
I would like to request a feature to export a book module as indd file.
I like PDF's but .indd is nice also so we are able to to more in depth layouts.
Having Lightoom being able to manage all your pictures and book layouts would be nice, alot of things can be done in one application.
Another Feature: Using Lightoom as book layout management.
Being able to send a page(s) of the book from lightroom into InDesign to do indepth layout and editing, then being able to send it back into lightroom
Almost similar to how you can send a photo from LR in Photoshop to do indepth editing and then send it back into lightroom.
This could and will ease the workflow of book management and layout design. So lightroom will not only be able to manage photos, but also indesign and book layouts.
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4238530#4238530

Why do repeat it here, as you have already filed a feature request for it?
BTW AFAIK this is already implemented: you can use Adobe Illustrator or InDesign or Opensource Scribus to edit layouts.
They are just not ready to publish how - another sign of the quality processes at Adobe.
But you do not send from the book module.
You create upfront layout templates, which you can import for use inside LR book module.
This is a one-way street.
The book module designers did not acknowledge a use case where you might want to fiddle the exact placement of really chosen images.
It is always you first design a template, then use it.
Love it or leave it - *change it* is not an option that Adobe seems to give to their beta testers.

Feature Request: AE Collect Option in PPro Project Manager

While PPro Project Manager collects linked AEP projects, it falls short of collecting assets embedded with the AEP project itself. This results in the user having to re-open the AEP project, locate and copy the original embedded media to new location and relink.
Another option is to open the original AEP Project, perform a collectioning within AEP, then having to manually import and replace the media on the timeline in the newly collected PPro. Tedious considering the complexity of AEPs that can run several layers deep with many assets.
Is this feature possible to add in the next round of updates?

Feature Request: Ultrabeat: Load Sample auto copy file name to Drum Voice

Feature Request: Ultrabeat: Load Sample auto copy file name to Drum Voice
I wish that when I load a sample into a drum voice, that it would automatically copy the name of the sound file I'm importing to the drum voice minus the extension. If I were importing BD01.wav I'd like for the drum voice to display BD01. As it is, I have to import the file, then name or rename the drum voice to BD01. When importing large quntities, this becomes a giant pain, and I'm looking for anything programmatic that could save me a load of time. When I think of all the time I'm going to waste...and if you multiply that by all the number of users...that's a lot of wasted time.
I wish of course that the program could suck up and autoload all of the sound files within a directory, names too, until the voices were full. Then I could just fine tune and kick out ones I don't want or want in different order. Not a big deal for users who are importing from all kinds of different sources, but say for impoting libraries like NI's Battery, it's a big deal.
Maybe these could be choices in the load sample menu.

Microsoft pulled the plug on DirectSound HAL in Vista due to lack of hardware support. The SAL exists for
software compatibility, good intention but bad performance as there is no longer a direct path from
DirectSound to audio drivers.
People choose DirectSound for its Direct-ness
but there is no reason to choose it now.
DirectX SDK was integrated
with WIndows SDK which ships with Visual Studio 2012 so you don't need additional downloads for
WASAPI and XAudio 2.
Just look up the documentation for headers/librarieslike every other Windows API you use. If you have a hard time to find the documentation then you need to go to search engines and find search engine tutorials.
There are plenty of samples for both WASAPI and XAudio 2, both in the Windows SDK and online. The DirectX team has some suggestions on which to use on their team blog.
You can find experts for those APIs at the Windows Desktop Pro-Audio Application Development forum and the
Audio/XACT forum on MSDN (link left out for you to practice your search skills). Again, it is fine to ask for hints but don't ask the whole
solution. You are competing with others who just need a hint to finish work here. The time spent on working on your assignment would be better spent on helping on giving hints to others.

Feature request: Slideshow module support for video files

I'm very excited about your MTS support!
Feature request: Slide show module support for video files...
Say you have 10 takes to choose from. Are you able to almost like SLIDESHOW view the 10 clips full screen so you can decide, like a playlist? Or rate them as they play? It would also be great, like SLIDESHOW to be able to export a MP4 with a title, the 10 clips you are working with, and maybe add an end title and a song, just like SLIDESHOW.
I have found editing stills like this in slideshow far faster than in any other editing program.
Basically, I just need a fast means to view or export an MP4 of a set of video clips to review. You are almost there.
great job!!!
Max

I was also disappointed that video is not supported in the slideshow module -I currently have to use another solution when I want stills mixed with videos, would be great to be ablo to keep it all in LR!

Feature Request: support previews for png files

hello,
i like to see previews supported for png files. This is a common file type and should be supported Especially since it is one of the options supported for export to creative cloud from photoshop touch. It would make a lot more sense.
Thanks.

On a related topic, here's another Illustrator file with fonts displaying incorrectly, but this time it also has problems with the download links - the options for PNG, JPG and PDF do not appear at all.
https://creative.adobe.com/file/2d6d788d-01e4-488d-90b8-46823f2017e2
This is all very strange, because they did appear in a previous version of this very same file:

Could it perhaps be related to the strange font behaviour?
