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

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)

  • Masking & Tracking Ellipse, Pen, and 4-Point Polygon (square) tools missing from the Effect Controls panel

    I am trying to mask a small area of some of the shots I am using for a small teaser.  The three tools that are supposed to present themselves on the effects tab when I select an effect such as "Brightness and Contrast" are not there.  Does anyone know another way to use these tools, or how to add them to the effects tab?

  • How can I separate the "Icons and Text" of the browser control buttons (Back, Forward, etc.) from the Icons on the Add-on toolbar?

    At home, this is not an issue. I don't know why it's different here at work--same installation, same settings (as far as I can tell).
    Windows Vista
    Firefox 7.0.1
    Status-4-Evar installed to turn add-on bar into a status bar
    I have a NoScript add-on icon in the corner, which works fine. If I add a GreaseMonkey icon from the Customize menu, the "Icon and Text" appears for that icon, like the Icon and Text from the browser controls (Home, stop, etc). Other add-on icons also show Icon and Text (S4E, for instance). NoScript is the only one I've found so far which collapses down to just an Icon.
    This leads to the status (add-on) bar having a much larger height than I like. Essentially what I want is for only the Icon to appear in the Status bar (Add-on toolbar), while keeping Icons and Text in the Browser controls. My current workaround is simply removing the other add-on icons from the status (add-on) toolbar, but that takes away the ease of toggling and setting options.
    Please tell me if I can provide you with anything else, and thanks for your help.
    Edit: I've got some screenshots to show what I mean.
    [http://i41.tinypic.com/ftek9s.jpg desired behavior]
    [http://i43.tinypic.com/1z6a4h3.jpg problem when icon is added]

    Surely there must be some UserChrome.css that will solve this problem. Something like this:
    /* Remove text titles for icons in add-on bar */
    addonbar .button-text {
    visibility: collapse !important;
    Unfortunately that does not work. I probably have the button text item name wrong (there is a pound sign before addonbar but it doesn't show in this posting).

  • I have been unable to print from FF to Brother HL-1440. print generate pages w/odd bits of text from the page, and sometimes one image. If I want to print off the web, I have to print PDF. Older versions of FF print fine.

    I downloaded OpenOffice and am able to print documents (in particular, the same document I created in MS Word). I guess MS Word is to blame. I believe the issue is concluded, but I'd welcome any comments about the Active Directory, as I might have a problem
    with OpenOffice in the future regarding that.

  • Export a 3D title text from after effects to my desktop

    I am having trouble exporting my 3D title text from after effects to my desktop to use in premiere pro...sending to render que but won't render for export. Am I missing a step?

    It would help if we knew your render settings, your experience level with AE, a little more about your workflow. Even knowing what version of AE and what OS may be helpful. This is probably just user error. Normal workflow would be to add the composition to the render cue, select a folder (the desktop is a lousy place to store assets by the way) and then press render. Without changing anything you'll get lossless DIm (digital intermediate) suitable for use in any NLE but not suitable for playback. If you need transparency then you should select lossless with alpha in the output module from the pull down.
    If you want something else then tell us more.
    Inside AE, if you see a search help field at the top right corner of the app type in 'rendering,' press enter, then read through the first two articles.

    How do I delete SMS text from the hard drive of a iPhone 3GS

    If you want to delete the messages from within the text app, swipe over the name or number of the sender and hit delete.
    If you are afraid that someone will be able to restore them by ckecking your HD, you will have to set up the phone "as new device" or choose "erase all content and Settings" in Settings/General/Reset. But this willerase the whole phone, not only your text messages.
