For the DVDSP 4 experts...  BUTTON complication.

ok, here's the problem. I want to create a button that covers an area but won't actually highlight when u toggle or click it. i want a small BAR atop the area (the area happens to be a picture) to indicate where you are in the menu. Right now, the button is a simply thin bar above the picture, which is fine for DVD players, BUT on a computer, i want the user to be able to hover OVER the picture and have the DVD recognize that as the button area, but ONLY highlight the BAR above the picture..
does this make sense. i cannot figure out how to do it... alpha channels / layers in PS?
HELP please!
thanks!
darrin

i can see it and am able to change the colours of it using my colors tab IN the MENU. how do i get it to recognize that i'm over a specific BUTTON so that the overlay highlights ONLY when i'm over that button.
Just draw the button area over the bar (you can even just make it black), three bars, three buttons (the ---' are the buttons you make by dragging)
' BAR HERE '
' BAR HERE '
' BAR HERE '
No need for multiple layers, make a flattened pict, then set the Normal, Selected, Acitvated colors in the inspector - take a look here

    Awesome. I REALLY appreciate this. Everything you said directed me to do all the right things. Thanks again. It really is nice not to have to type in my e-mail each time I log in to my frequently-visited sites.

  • O.T. NIH Image - Site For The Real Technical Experts.

    Another one of the oddball programmes floating around in cyberspace :
    NIH Image is a public domain image processing and analysis program for the Macintosh. It was developed at the Research Services Branch (RSB) of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
    A free PC version of Image, called Scion Image for Windows, is available from Scion Corporation. There is also Image/J, a Java program inspired by Image that "runs anywhere".
    Image can acquire, display, edit, enhance, analyze and animate images. It reads and writes TIFF, PICT, PICS and MacPaint files, providing compatibility with many other applications, including programs for scanning, processing, editing, publishing and analyzing images. It supports many standard image processing functions, including contrast enhancement, density profiling, smoothing, sharpening, edge detection, median filtering, and spatial convolution with user defined kernels.
    Image can be used to measure area, mean, centroid, perimeter, etc. of user defined regions of interest. It also performs automated particle analysis and provides tools for measuring path lengths and angles. Spatial calibration is supported to provide real world area and length measurements. Density calibration can be done against radiation or optical density standards using user specified units. Results can be printed, exported to text files, or copied to the Clipboard.
    A tool palette supports editing of color and gray scale images, including the ability to draw lines, rectangles and text. It can flip, rotate, invert and scale selections. It supports multiple windows and 8 levels of magnification. All editing, filtering, and measurement functions operate at any level of magnification and are undoable.
    Image directly supports Data Translation and Scion frame grabber cards for capturing images or movie sequences using a TV camera. Acquired images can be shading corrected and frame averaged. Other frame grabbers are supported via plug-in modules.
    Image can be customized in three ways: via a built-in Pascal-like macro language, via externally compiled plug-in modules and on the Pascal source code level. Example macros, plug-ins and complete source code can be downloaded from the Download page.

    Quite easy my friend,
    I see your using loadClip features to bring the portfolio
    onto the site...
    So inside the portfolio file, create an empty movieclip on
    the first frame, make this movieclip however many seconds long you
    want it to take until the next image shows up...
    Then, whatever function calls the next image to show up
    (which usually only runs when u click on a thumbnail), call that
    function from the empty movie clip at the end of the clip....
    Im not sure how to check the downloadin first though, just
    make the movieclip long enough to download the stuff first...
    Peace!

  • QuickView is great - except for the "add to iPhoto" button

    Is there any way to get rid of that "add to iPhoto" button in the Finder's QuickView?
    We have no use for iPhoto but we keep accidentally hitting that button instead of the "Full Screen" button. Then we have to wait while iPhoto launches, then wait again while we quit it.
    I thought of trashing iPhoto (after archiving it) so it doesn't launch but i'm sure some system update is going to freak out when it can't find the iPhoto bundle.

    no, deleting iphoto is completely safe. you don't have to have it at all.

  • For the iPhone video experts...

    I want to use my iPhone as a video camera or webcam for extended periods of time (i.e., 2, 3 or even 4 hours per instance), and to have an easy way to either download the files or record the webcam broadcast. I am on the edge of going 3g or 3gs but will this really be the kind of primary video device, with the benefit of being a really cool little phone, that I am seeking. Thanks for any thoughts or ideas???
    <Edited by Host>

    May I suggest the double App approach? Sort of like with Mobiola Headset where you have to run an app on the target computer and the iPhone simultaneously; It transfers audio from your computer to your iPhone, and can even act as a headset. Great for everything but Movies and Video games.... (But one would now able to listen to their ENTIRE music library if they use the Remote App as well and switch between the two.)
    None the less, my idea was that supposedly the iPhone takes pictures and compiles them into a video. (I could be totally wrong about this but if it's true the biggest problem would be "when") Even still I don't see how one couldn't just capture spitfire images to the ram, or using their own code, and throw it over the network to the PC side. There, it could compile the images and simulate a "Camera" feed using some generic "open feed" calls.
    Hope this gives some ideas..

  • Streamlining the code for the button group with individual links and rollover imgs

    I am looking for a solution to streamline the code for the array of 20+  buttons located inside the scroll pane.
    I know I can make an array if all the buttons would have a unified code executable change, i.e. they would become larger and brighter.
    My problem is that each button represents an product image in the lights off stage, then of rollover it is a lights on stage so I have to import two images in the on and off stage and play around with the opacity.
    Additional problem is that each button has to ling to a different label.
    My question is: is it possible to unify the code if buttons have that much individuality or I have to make each one of them as in the example below.
    // makes a hand cursor appear over a mc acting as a button for all the buttons inside the scrollpnaeBckgrnd_mc.scrollpaneBckgrnd_btns_mc.
    MovieClip(mc_pane2.content).scrollpaneBckgrnd_mc.scrollpaneBckgrnd_btns_mc.buttonMode = true;

    ///////////////INDIVIDUAL BUTTONS

    as ned suggested, plan your flow and code into it. here is one example:
    var buttonArray = [someButton, someOtherButton, aDifferentButton];
    for(var i = 0; i < buttonArray.length; i++){
         //get reference to county movieclip
         var mc = buttonArray[i];
         //then add listeners
         mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, overMe);
    function overMe(e:MouseEvent){
         var mc = e.target;
         switch(mc){
              case: someButton:
                       someOtherButton:   doThis();
                                                     break;
              case: aDifferentButton:     doThat();
                                                     break;
              default:                            //do nothing;
                                                     break;

  • Where is the GarageBand Jam Session Button?

    Hi, I am having trouble looking for the GarageBand Jam Session button and I just downloaded mine yesterday. The version I have is 1.2 and also have the newest iPad.

    You will need a USB device to which you can connect an input cable. If your cable uses a 3.5 mm mini-plug, then you can try using a device such as the Griffin iMic or any similar USB sound card that has both input and output jacks, connects to USB, and conforms to standard USB protocols not requiring any special drivers to work on a Mac.
    Here'sone other such candidate. Google searching will likely find you many others.

  • How can I get the "Multi-Camera Record" button to show up in the Multi-Camera editor?

    I've used the Multi-Camera editor in Premiere for years but in the most recent update (Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014) I can't get the Multi-Camera Editor to record my camera switches. I looked for the Multi-Camera Record button but it wasn't where it used to be, and even when hitting the plus sign to add more buttons it does not appear in that menu either.
    What am I missing here? Please help. Thank you.

    Did you try it in the program monitor?

  • Are these things possible in PDF forms? Questions for the experts

    Hi,
    I have a project where I need to create an online application system, where the user has to fill in a form where the results have to be saved into a database.
    I wanted to create a html based form, but then someone told me PDF can also do cool things, so I’m researching that road.
    I already managed to create a simple form and submitting it to a web service (java servlet in my case) and that works pretty nicely.
    I'm new to the whole PDF form creating and I’m wondering if certain things are possible. So I’m trying the experts in this form for a yes/no answer.
    Are the following things possible with PDF forms:
    1) validation: number & date checks, eg, a number should be higher than 4, or be a valid number/date
    2) If I answer A at question 1, I should skip Question 2 and go directly to Question 3. Is it possible to hide Question 2, depending on what I answered at Question 1?
    3) Is it possible to attach files to the form, like a photo? And also upload it to the web service.
    4) After I submit the form, is it possible to lock the form so that no other changes can be made? In other words, you may only submit once.
    5) Possible to activate the print button after the form has been submitted?
    6) Can a drop-down lists be dynamic? Instead of hard coding the list, calling a web service to fill the values?
    Thanks in advance for any insight,
    Kind regards
    Ido

    Hi Paul,
    thanks for the quick answer. No my next challange is how to do things
    1) validation: number & date checks, eg, a number should be higher than 4, or be a valid number/date
    <answer> Yes
    I think this is done through the object properties
    2) If I answer A at question 1, I should skip Question 2 and go directly to Question 3. Is it possible to hide Question 2, depending on what I answered at Question 1?
    <answer> Yes
    This is done with subforms and scripting?
    3) Is it possible to attach files to the form, like a photo? And also upload it to the web service.
    <answer> PDF does support the ability to have attachments. They would be includeed as part of the PDF so you woudl have to submit the entire PDF and then extract the attachments when you get the file to the server. Note that you will require to Reader Extend the document to allow a Reader user to add the attachment. This is not a requirement if you are using Acrobat.
    Have to look into this one.
    4) After I submit the form, is it possible to lock the form so that no other changes can be made? In other words, you may only submit once.
    <answer> Yes
    Also through scripting?
    5) Possible to activate the print button after the form has been submitted?
    <answer> If you add a print button on the form then the answer is Yes. The application that houses the PDF will jhave print capabilities and that one is much more difficult to hide. You can set it up so that the form cannot be printed then return back the locked version with printing enabled but a round trip to the server is required for that.
    Print button will be fine by now, probably also done by scripting
    6) Can a drop-down lists be dynamic? Instead of hard coding the list, calling a web service to fill the values?
    <answer> Yes but the form will require LiveCycle Reader Extensions if you are using Reader. Reader Extensions is not required if you are Acrobat.
    Ahh, perhaps fixed list will be ok for version 1

  • FPM: Tooltip for the start button

    Hi FPM experts,
    I have one question/requirement concerning the start button within the FPM GAFfloorplan. I would like to add a tooltip to that button. I know that this button is part of the FPM and can not be influenced during design time.
    Nevertheless I hoped to be able to influence the button during runtime, namely by using the interface  IF_FPM_CNR_GAF and the method DEFINE_BUTTON. According to the Developers Guide for FPM Release 701 this should work for standard buttons. However I did not succeed in using this method.
    When taking a closer look at the signature I also became aware that there is one parameter missing in the signature of the interface that is described within the Developers Guide (IV_SCREEN): To the best of my knowledge this parameter is not available in 7.01/7.1 systems.
    Any help on that topic is appreciated!
    Thanks
    Christian

    I clicked on the OK button and the downloader closed.
    I did a search on this error code (c0000005) and there seems to be a workaround but no solutions, why is this? I ask that because this problem seems to be years and years old, going back to at least 2005 (do the math that is 10 years).
    I don't even have the Camera hooked up and I get this error on download.  I redownloaded everything and reinstalled.  I allso saw the AVI issues reported with this proble so i updated Quicktime though without the camera being hooked up when I get this error I didn't expect that to work.  I tried support and they wouldn't help because I bought it in March this year.  Pretty frustrating as I have re-purchased Elements about every 2 years.  I think I might need a new CODEC?   I had this problem on an Earlier version And I seem to remember that being the Fix but this may be something completely different

    I finally found that it was missing a picture so the Catalog was "corrupted".  I just deleted the picture and it started working.
    I hate Adobe and their total lack of support - thanks for nothing Adobe .  Also get this - they offered me to upgrade to 13.0 ( My 12.0 is only 6 months old  but they still don't support it on errors.  Only install errors!
    I have upgrade and repurchase this product 4 times now.  I will find something else next time!

I am scared that if i take the tmobile sim card out and put the at&t one in just to complete the restoration process that the iphone will lock again and not read the tmobile sim card, then all my hard work has gone for nothing.
