Haw to maintain adio layer linked to an effect property after replacing the audio layer?

Hy,
i have an effect applied to a layer and a certain property of that effect (turbulent displace) is controlled by the "both channels" af my audio layer / audio amplitude generated layer.
What i need is to make somehow possible for the client to add his own audio layer and in the same time not disturbing the link between the effect property & my audio later.
I cannot use an audio so that he can simply replace mine...i need a way to give him the possibility to add his own audio file, generate his own "audio amplitude" by converting keyframes and still maintain the link I created between my original audio layer and the effect property.
I hope i was clear enough and someone can help me...
Thanx!

Thank you for the reply!
I never put the curly brackets when there is only one number since it saves some typing. I tried this time, but it made no difference. Also tried writing 1 instead of "true", still the same problem. I also tried this expression:
temp = -40 + 40* comp("Main Comp").layer("SOUND CONTROLS").effect("Appearance Sounds")("Checkbox");
[temp, temp]
The same problem persists. The preview sounds wrong, the render sounds right.

    Your Apple TV may have become paired with another remote. Hold the remote close to and pointed at the Apple TV, hold down the menu and Rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see a broken chain icon on screen.

  • Strange noise problem with music layer after replacing the music file using script in CS6

    Hey guys,
    I got a strange problem. Sometime when I import a music file, or replace a music footage with another music file using the "replace()" or "importFile()" method, the music layer added one second noise at the beginning. like this,
    Does anyone know what's going on here?
    I'm using After Effects CS6 windows Server 2008 64bit.
    Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi Myleniu,
    Thanks for your replay. Actually, it doesn't matter what makes up my comp, this problem just randomly happen when I render any comp. For example, I have a comp named "noise", I run a script to replace the music then render it, I use a "for" loop to do this 5 times and the music noise problem just happen one time.
    I'm starting to think that win server might be the problem.

  • Changes to Excel link sources are not saved after closing the workbook

    We've had several instances over the last few weeks where users are updating the source files for various links within a spreadsheet, saving their changes and closing the file. Then, next time another user goes into the file, the links have reverted back
    to their previous values, as if the first user never went in and changed them.
    Anyone ever hear of such a thing? The user changing the links is running Excel 2013. The user opening the file for review is using Excel 2010. Could there be some issue there?
    Shaun

    Hi,
    According to your description, let us more test to narrow down this issue.
    Firstly, since the three users using different pc to open these file, I recommend the third user logon the other two PC with Excel 2013 to test.
    If third user could see the well file with Excel 2013, this issue is more relate to Excel 2010 or the third PC itself.
    Secondly, we could use the forth pc with Excel 2010 to test. If third user could see the well file in the forth pc with Excel 2010.
    I'd better check the third PC itself. There are some third party add-ins or program will caused it. Try following methods:
    Install the Windows and Office 2010 update patches.
    Start with Excel safe mode.
    If it still not work well with Excel 2010, there might be some compatibility issue between Excel 2010 and Excel 2013. Please try to run
    the Compatibility Checker for 2010
    Hope it's helpful.

  • Symbols being able to maintain a layer structure

    I really think that symbols need to be able to maintain a layer structure so that when they are placed or imported into a document the various objects making up that symbol could be automatically assigned to their respective layer. My company has found working with Illustrator layers virtually impossible due to the complex and extensive nature of our symbol libraries. Pasted below is an overview of my company's situation in order to give this request some context.
    I'll elaborate on our current system a bit more.
    1. Instances do not reside in the same place on all the renderings. We have roughly 120 illustrator templates set up, most of which are similar but all vary per rendering as each represents a different product.
    2. There are not always the same number of instances on a given layer.
    3. The position of the instances changes on virtually every rendering.
    4. The number of symbols that would be associated with a particular layer varies depending on how much of that particular product line a client is interested in. Anywhere from 1 on the low end to possibly 50 or so on the high end.
    5. I am aware of the paste remembers layers function. Due to the complexity of our expansive component based system, I'd guess we currently have atleast 500+ symbols set up over a couple dozen palettes (set up as symbol libraries). Additionally each component has its identifying part# displayed next to it so that our clients/production team can identify them by looking at the rendering. Not only that, but some of these components are very small. Having all these symbols already on the page, or even on several pages just isnt realistic due to the scale and volume.
    6. Replace symbols isnt really an option as we are constantly bringing in/adding symbols based on our expansive component-based system.
    7. I haven't delved very deep into variables and datasets in Illustrator, so I'll try to take some time and explore them to see if there are any viable options there.

  • Photoshop "step backward" maintains current layer selection?

    How about make Photoshop "step backward" command maintain current layer selection? So that when using the "step backward" to undo something it doesn't select a differnt layer. The current "step backward" layer change issue is annoying.

    Seems a lot of people have this problem, and someone wrote a script to fix it.
    See here: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1251347#post1251347
    Also, note you need to copy the script in the Photoshop/Presets/Scripts folder for it to show in the Scripts menu. Once it's there, you can assign any keyboard shortcut to it - CTRL+Z of course
    Photoschop CS3 and up i think.

  • Make "step backward" command maintain current layer selection (like the "undo" command's behavior)...

    Please make Photoshop's "step backward" command maintain current layer selection (like the "undo" command's behavior). So that when using the "step backward" to undo something it doesn't unnecessarily select a different layer . The current "step backward" layer change issue is inconvenient because it causes unnexpected layer selection change.

    Has this happened yet ( an upgrade that fixes the step back layer switch problem ) in any updates?
    Arghhh very annoying.

  • "step backward" command maintain current layer selection

    It is said that even in past versions of Photoshop,Please make "step backward" command maintain current layer selection (like the "undo" command's behavior).
    The current "step backward" layer change issue is inconvenient because it causes unnexpected layer selection change.
    When I was talking about this issue on Twitter,over 200 persons' approval was obtained in one day.
    I know how to avoid in the script,but we hope as a standard feature.

    Yeah, I noticed that too.
    For those who don't know what this is about, here's a sample scenario.  Let's say you're working on an image.
    1.  You happen to have an adjustment layer selected.
    2.  Now you want to work on an image layer below, so you click on it.
    3.  You use the Clone Tool on the image layer a couple of times.
    4.  You don't like how it came out, so you click on the same History step that was active during step 1.
    5.  You try to Clone again, but you find that the History change has caused the Adjustment layer to be selected as it was before step 2.
    The real base issue is that since the Clone Tool is still selected, we tend to think we can just keep cloning after going back in the History, when in fact we really need to repeat step 2 again.  On paper this seems pretty straightforward, but in practice one almost never remembers to check which layer is selected.
    Maybe an option to store the layer selections as History steps would help with this.  Then we would tend to go back to just after the proper layer was selected.

  • Help tells me that i am up to date with the latest version BUT the firefox start link tells me i am NOT on the latest version. what is going on?

    help tells me that i am up to date with the latest version BUT the http://www.google.co.uk/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official link tells me i am NOT on the latest version. what is going on?.
    also:
    please can sync also copy my addons too?

    Firefox is a web browser not a homepage.
    It sounds like you you have the old www.google.com/firefox/ start page that used to be the default homepage in Firefox before Firefox 4.0 sometime. It is not being maintained by Google anymore so either ignore the message or while in Firefox go to Tools->Options->General->Homepage section and change your homepage.

  • Premiere CS5 and dynamic link with Affect effects doesn't "sync"

    Hi guys, having issues with Pr and Ae CS5 using the dynamic link. I haven't got massive experience using aftereffects, i mainly edit. I doing VFX for a short film ( i know right, deep end..) Its a hand held combat scene.
    I'm using action essentials 2 for muzzle flash and explosions. And i'm noticing that when a do tracking (manually, "track motion" doesn't work, due to the shaky camera movement) in After effects, the muzzle flashes are in place and looks great
    but when i go back to Premiere to view the clip, its not hitting the same marks in every frame. I export the clip out of Premiere and still the same issue.
    example of me manually tracking or adding keyframes for position in after effects.
    After effects still.                                                                                                     Premiere still. See how the flashes are in the sky.
    Look for the two muzzle flashes up the top right, on the ridge line.
    The footage is AVCHD .MTS files for a Panasonic GH2 PAL
    Here's a link to the clip, notice that same of the flashes coming out of the actor's gun isn't in the right positon also.

    We are just shifing to PP from another editor and have only used PP to AE for color correction tests w/Color Finesse (a plugin in AE). My only experinece with dynamic link is in this way. Personally I find it very cumbersome. So take this with a grain of salt, but if we do other work in AE (we have an intern working on a 1.5 min AE animation) I will render it out in AE to ProRes HQ or 4444 if I need an alpha channel (or similar codec) and drag it into my project folder in PP.
    You should do yourself a favor (Not meant with disrespect) and take a few hours and REALLY get down and dirty with Dynamic Link between PP and AE.
    I use it all the time and it litterally saves me 10+ hours of work on EACH project which is typical between 70 and 300 clips.
    In fact, I dont know how I'd do withouth DL.
    At first it seems cumbersome, yes. But that is only until you get to know it...
    I will cut the whole project in PP. Then save it.
    Then in AE, I'll choose "Import PP Project " --- That will open my whole PP project in AE on SEPERATE layers (One layer per Clip).. Ready to CC.
    I dont have to render a thing from PP.
    If I need to, I'll use the AE Script "Pre Compose" to make an individual composition of each layer.
    AE is just about the greatest app I have EVER seen on ANY computer ! Hands Down
    Does not get ANY faster than that.

    Also check if your javascript retains after Publishing. Sharepoint will remove malcious code/script html after saving the page and make page safe.

  • Is there a way I can click on a link designed to open in a new window/tab and have it replace the current tab instead?

    For example, if I go to [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20435580 an abstract on PubMed] and click on either of the full text icons, Firefox will open a new tab. I want the full text to replace the tab with the abstract, instead.
    The best thing I can figure out now is to Ctrl-click the icons so they open in the background, then use Ctrl+W to close the current window.

    Hi,
    In your Firefox -> Preferences/Options -> Tabs, you can select the check box "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately". You would still need to go back and close the original tab, but this would help you with part of the issue.
    Thanks,

  • When I open a link in a new tab, most of the time it opens to the bottom of the page, and I have to scroll back up to the top or hit the Home key.

    When reading a web page, I will right-click on a link and select 'open link in new tab' and most of the time it will open the new page right at the bottom. I then have to scroll up with the mouse or hit the 'home' button on my keyboard to get back to the top of the page. I've already looked at the tab settings in the options menu, and there's nothing there that seems to apply.

  • ICan you create and link Templates in DWCS4 after all the pages are built as HTML?

    I used Dreamweaver CS4 to create a website(about 50 pages).  Only after completing it did it occur to me that I should have made the pages using Templates .  There are certain areas (footer, navbar, header) that will need to be globally updated occationally, but since none of the pages were built off a .DWT am I out of luck?  Is there any way to create templatized pages from my existing HTML and have them LINK so they will globally update?   The thought of going through and doing each of these over individually is daunting!

    I used Dreamweaver CS4 to create a website(about 50 pages).  Only after completing it did it occur to me that I should have made the pages using Templates .
    That's called putting the cart way ahead of the horse.  You would need to build a Template first, then spawn child pages from that Template.  Since you're already up to your neck in this project,  consider using server-side includes instead of Templates.
