Have long list of images scrolling across frame

Hi,
I've got a list of 22 logos (images) that I want to scroll from the bottom of the frame to the top. Because of the size of the list, they don't all fit into the frame at the same time (hence the scrolling). It's a 1920x1080 composition and I use CS6.
My questions is what approach would be best for this scrolling effect.
I've tried two things so far: make a psd file with all the images in a line and I've also precomposed all the image files and used an odd frame size (it's 5000px in height) to make them all fit. The scrolling works (I just use position for that) for both approaches but it all seems a bit clumsy to me so I wonder if there is a better way.
I'm wondering this because I need to blur/lower the opacity of the logos when they reach the middle of the frame so you can read a line of text that should be on top of the logos so to say. But I've struggled to find an easy way of doing this with the approaches I've used. The background is patterned so I can't just use a solid for the blur/opacity effect - so I don't know how to make it work with the psd file (I've also tried a mask but that just follows the images to the top of course). With the precomp I can time the effect if there isn't a better way (so that's what I'll do if I can't find a better solution).
Help appreciated - thanks!

I would recommend placing all of your images in a comp that is the same size as your main comp.
Parent them all to a null object.
Animate the null object. Adjust the position of the various logos as needed.
Now, in your main comp, add a new solid.
Precompose it.
In the new precomp apply a gradient ramp to the solid. Then apply Colorama or Tritone and set it so that the gradient goes from black at the top to white in the middle and back to black at the bottom.
Back in the main comp, hide the gradient comp layer.
Apply the Compound Blur effect to your logo comp.
Choose the gradient ramp as the blur map.
Adjust the blur settings. You should see the logos now blur in the middle differently from how they blur at the edges.
Use that gradient comp layer as an inverse luma matte for your logo layer and apply levels to adjust it as needed to change the opacity as well.

  • Images scrolling across screen gradually increasing in speed?

    Any way to do this?
    I have a photo mosaic and i have each individual image used to make it up.
    I want to make a video clip of the images gradually increasing in speed across the screen eventually forming the final image.
    thanks.

    So theres no way to make the images scroll across the screen then? at all?...
    Seems like imovie can't do anything...just want some images scrolling across the screen.
    Im guessing i will have to use something more high tech like final cut?

  • Scrolling Text Frame Problema

    No me sale la opcion Scrollable Frame

    That video is accurate. After you paste the content frame into the container frame, select the container frame (not the content frame), and then the Scrollable Frames option should appear in the Overlays panel when you scroll down.

  • Continuous image scroll

    I have made a continuous image scroll, but as it it loops it
    messes up my spacing between my images. I am trying to scroll about
    25 images each of which are are their own movie clip. I have this
    code which works well for five images now I want to ad about 20
    more.
    onClipEvent(enterFrame) { // movie clip enterframe event
    _x=_x+2; // change position for each enterframe event
    if(_x>=540){ // condition
    _x=-360; // if condition true movie clip jumps to starting
    postion.
    The tutorial I am using states this:
    "if(_x>=540)" value depends on the no. of movie clips.,
    but I am confused as to where the 540 comes from? is it the length
    of all of the movie clips put together?
    I am confused as to how to alter this so it works with around
    25 images any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks so much!
    AZ

    Assuming that this clip event is attached to the MC
    containing the images, you could use the _width value of the clip
    to determine the start and ending point of the movement.

  • Scroll through long list (Photo and iPod)

    Hi!
    I'm the new guy here so be gentle...
    Any way to scroll through a long list in iPod or Photo, as you can with Contacts (by dragging up/down on the leters at left)?
    I know you can tap and view a single photo then scroll through at the bottom.
    When viewing all photos, there is a scroll bar on the right but can't drag it.
    Same in iPod.
    Drag and flick work but if there is more than a page or two, it's a pain.

    +I was hoping maybe there's a three finger, double tap, right swipe, followed by a half clockwise circle to get the bottom/top+
    Well, yes there is but then I would have to show you the secret hand shake and swear you to secrecy.
    +It's got the slider on the right side but it's just for looks. You can't grab it and slide it+
    I still haven't figured the point of that, maybe a future enhancement?
    There has been a lot of grumbling about the unfriendly nature of Photos for people with a lot of images. Maybe Apple is listening and will do something about it. I keep hoping one of the iOS upgrades will include folders/albums from within Photos instead of relying on syncing.
    Also note that you can not delete images from Photos that have been added by syncing through iTunes...have to delete them back in iTunes.
    But still, the iPad is a terrific photo display device due to its size.

  • Where do I send a long list of problems I have with non-functionality with the Lion OSX and new Safari for Lion.

    In the past two weeks I have been documenting my Lion problems.
    First, Arrows gone from finder windows; makes it difficult in comparing long lists of files in folder, or compare documents when reviewing line by line. This is obviously a change by people who do not compare long lists in windows comparing files between versions of projects ... the click to next screen is NOT equal to arrows.
    Second, Finder Redreaw - doesn't. Move files to a fold, if there are a lot of files, they image of the files being moved remains in finder (see attached screen capture) until Finder is restarted and if COPY function is running. last files in Copy queue are not copied.
    Screen capture 5 minutes after moving files to a folder - the selected file images are still in Finder after the move was completed.
    Third, it is SLOW, particularly going to an "Attach file" in email, drawing the content of a folder to select an attachment is long enough for me to go to the kitchen, get a drink and come back. Just like the old days of OS7.
    Fourth, shifting/recentering screen away from where I am working. Several programs, browsers, Adobe Photoshop/inDesign, and dear old Pages re center my screen - not to the center, but if I choose 30 of 70 images in a folder, it will shift … somewhere else in the folder instead of where I just clicked. If I am working on a document in inDesign or PhotoShop it will do the same - the cursor and screen drift elsewhere to find something it has been amused by. Sometimes it is a word, or a file, but often it is off the pastboard and on the etherial pasteboard on which the pages sit. Or if I'm zoomed in on an image, it moves to somewhere else.
    I use a mouse and keyboard, both Apple wireless. I do not use a trackpad, but have a tablet/stylus I am afraid to put into the mix until this crap is stopped.
    Fifth, SAVE AS… is gone. You must unlock, duplicate and edit the duplicate … and must rename it in Finder, or use EXPORT to save as the same format under a new name. SAVE AS… worked. Not broke, why fix it?
    Personal Comment: The problems seem to be the triumph of coked up software engineers ooohing and aaahing over "Wouldn't it be cool if..."   Cool, if they were Microsoft, and required everyone change how they have worked on Macs for the past (almost) three decades. Triumph of brainstorming over functionality.
    Sixth, I can't use Cocoa Booklet, but that really started in OSX 10.6 "Snow Leopard". Most of my X11/Cocoa programs stopped worked about that time. Apple is no longer supporting "open source"?
    But Wait! There's More...
    Seventh, Tonight, trying to download a 1.7 gig archive onto a disk where 280 Gigs were supposedly free, it would not download because, according to the wonderful new Safari and the wonderful new Lion, there is not enough disk space to download a 1.7 gig file in a mere 280 Gigs of free space.
    I might be able to move Snow Leopard onto the iMac, but my deciding factor was that Apple, in its wisdom, decided to make iBook Author unable to run under Snow Leopard. So moving to Snow Leopard means I have lost the ONLY benefit I get from the new computer and the new system.
    This really stinks.

    Hi,
    I had never heard of someone using the iPhone Number as the ID in the iMessages account in the Mac version.
    i.e without adding an Apple ID
    iMessages does allow iPhone numbers and mine lists mine.
    I would try this.
    Sign Out of the iMessages account and Quit Messages
    On the iPhone in Settings > Messages remove the Apple ID
    Set the iPhone to Airplane mode for a few minutes (to break with the  Server)
    On starting the phone up again check the iPhone Number  is ticked for iMessages.
    If it is add the Apple ID
    On the Mac restart Messages
    Add the Apple ID
    At this point you should get a pop up or two saying the iPhone is using the Number and Apple ID.
    Accept these and they get added to the Receive At list and Send From drop down.

  • I have upgraded to Mountain Lion and have found that some of my software no longer works, notably Image Browser and also the Epson Scanner Perfection 3490 software. Is there a 'patch' or way to allow me to use these programmes especially the scanner.

    I have upgraded to Mountain Lion and have found that some of my software no longer works, notably Image Browser and also the Epson Scanner Perfection 3490 software. Is there a 'patch' or way to allow me to use these programmes especially the scanner.

    Apple discontinued support for PowerPC apps with Lion, I think, so you're out of luck there. No patch coming, unfortunately. Best to upgrade whatever old applications you have or, since it seems like you're using some relatively old software, scout around for replacements that give you the functionality you need.
    Go to Apple menu > System Preferences > Print & Scan and select your scanner from the list--if it's not there you'll need to add it (start with the little plus icon). Once you have it in the list you can click on the Open Scanner button and a pretty barebones scanner driver will load for you. But Image Capture (as mentioned previously), found in your Applications folder, will probably do the job as adequately, or better, than your old scanner software.

  • Scrolling a long list?

    I'm sure this is simple - how do you build a long list of names to scroll up the screen, like movie credits?
    thanks

    If you drag the corner of the presentation window, you can expand it so that it shows "blank" area to the left and bottom of the slide area -- doing this will allow you to see material that starts off of the slide itself. To scroll the text box up, position it so that its top edge is below the slide bottom, set the Build Out to "Move Out", and the direction to "Bottom to Top". Set the duration to fairly slow in order to make the text readable. The Move Out build has acceleration and deceleration built in to it, so you might also want to put some blank spaces in at the beginning and end of the text list in order to make the text scroll speed appear constant.
    Another way of doing this is to use a Move Action (from the "Action" dropdown menu in the Build Inspector). The Move Action has the option not to have this acceleration/deceleration.

  • I have a long list of gibberish files, in Preferences, in my Library. What are they? How did they get there? Can I delete them?

    I have a long list of gibberish files, in Preferences, in my Library. What are they? How did they get there? Can I delete them without causing a problem?

    Here is one thing I found googling for WebEx:
    http://www.webex.com/why-webex/overview.html
    (The x64 would most likely mean 64 bit). It may be a Windows based application/plugin, but since I had never heard of either, I'm only guessing there. If you do a search systemwide for it and don't find it plus don't know why it's there, I'd say throw it in the trash (don't empty it yet - make a note of the file path just in case you do have something installed that needs it so you can move it back).
    Glad to hear it's not a torrent; some people use those not realizing that quite often there is a price to pay for downloading stuff for free that costs money elsewhere - the software packages quite often include little "add-ons" = malware which you really don't want.

  • I have a long list of bookmarks. They are not sorted. They do not appear anywhere in the "organize bookmarks" window. Where are they? I want to delete a bunch of them but can't find a way.

    This is Firefox 3.6.8 and Mac OS 10.5.8.
    Right clicking on a bookmark does nothing. I don't know if that is a Firefox version issue or a mouse issue, but the mouse can right click on the Mac OS desktop and get the usual menus.
    It is possible for me to delete bookmarks which still point to an active web page because there I can use the star to edit the bookmark. That is way too cumbersome a process for the long list I have. Some are old and no longer point to an active page. The star comes up empty in those cases anyway and I can do nothing about the bookmark.
    Bottom line is that I just need a way to see the whole list and choose the ones to delete.
    I thought they should all show up in the unsorted bookmarks folder but it is empty. That may be the crux of the problem.

    Update - I discovered that the entire list of bookmarks can be accessed in the Organize Bookmarks window by clicking on the icon for Bookmarks Menu.
    This seem like odd interface behaviour to me.
    All the other software I use follows the pattern that an icon with a triangle to the left, which you click on to expand the menu tree downwards, shows the entire contents of the category when you click on the triangle. In other words, you don't get a different response by clicking on the icon from what you get by clicking on the triangle.
    It also seems odd to me that when an unsorted bookmarks folder is automatically provided that unsorted bookmarks would not be placed there by default.
    Anyway, by getting the list of bookmarks displayed this way I was able to simply right-click on items in the list and delete them, as I thought I should be able to do. Problem solved. Organize Bookmarks interface found to be somewhat unintuitive.

    Hope you can advice. Thanks.

    SharePoint does not remove users from SharePoint permissions just because they were deleted/disabled in AD. This is to maintain referential integrity. In fact, when you delete a user from SharePoint, that user remains in the SharePoint content database,
    just marked as deleted.
    They do not have access to SharePoint given their account is deleted/disabled. But as far as automatically managing this, I'm not aware of a tool. On-prem there is Metalogix ControlPoint which does a great job of this, I haven't explored the O365 options.

    I am using a macbook pro with system 10.6.8. I just discovered that no recent files have been backed up to the external disk using Time Capsule.  There is a long list of backups including most recent but no recent files, for some weeks, have been backed up.  I did a full reset of Time Machine.  I disconnected the external drive and reconnected it. It is not a matter of file types, no files and no folders have gotten backed up.  Everything looks normal though unless one goes hunting for recent files on the back up.

    Many thanks.

    Usually if you have some kind of hardware failure there is some beeping during POST or most motherboards now have LED indicators to produce and error message based on the type of failure
    So if its bad memory, not place properly, mismatched, processor not inserted properly, mismatched voltage or voltage connector not present etc it beeps or generates the error id.
    Power supplies can be tested for failure. There are some walk throughs for testing just them with a switch, paperclip or a jumper (I'd suggest not doing this if you are not familiar with the dangers of electricity).
    Memory can be tested with memory diagnostics programs like Memtest+
    Processors can overheat if the proper precautions have not been taken usually you will get a POST beep or error code for that.
    If the motherboard has no response then do the basics first:
    Check power connectors and power supply. Once you determine that is not the case move on to other items like graphics cards in all the way or memory.
