! help ! led-style ticker tape?

I have not been able to find a led-style ticker tape that's not pay-for-use anywhere. And the one I found online doesn't seem to work when I tweak it. Can anyone help me?
I'm looking for a ticker tape that I can set the background to a color, the text to another color, and preferably no border.
If you can figure out something, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!

  • How can you create a TICKER TAPE in MUSE?

    I would like to have a ticker tape on my website which I am desiging in Adobe Muse. Is this possible and can someone explain how I can so this? Thanks

    Hi Melissa,
    At the moment, probably the easiest way to do this is using Edge Animate, or another tool, to animate the text in a loop, and then place that within Muse. There are a lot of tutorials online that can help you do that, like this one on Lynda.com. You can also find help over on the Edge Animate forums section if you find you need more assistance.
    Hope that helps

  • Ticker tape during presentation??

    Hello all. I'm a newbie with iMac. I use it in an education context - our school's announcements are presented on a few flat screen VGAs in the school using Keynote. My question... is there a better program out there that will do the same thing (ie. presentation in slide and video format) that will also allow me to display the weather or a ticker tape at the bottom with other announcements???
    Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to the forums, turboprof.
    You might check out the Revolution line of
    multimedia authoring products. They're based on a
    Hypercard-like foundation, and so should be much more
    flexible than Keynote (although they may lack many of
    Keynote's beautiful graphical niceties). You might
    also check out iSh
    ell, although it appears it is more geared to CD
    multimedia.
    Thank you. I guess what I'm looking for is the software tv companies use. (ie. CP24 in Toronto). I've looked at what you suggested and I don't think it will answer to our school's needs.

  • Adding Flash ticker tape display of still photos

    This questions is really directed to "Old Toad" - I find your sample iWeb site extremely useful however I have a question. On your example of a flash ticker tape display you mention that the HTML was obtained from OVI.COM - I cannot find anything even remotely related on this site - HELP??

    Pat:
    First you need to create an account on OVI.com, upload the photos you want to a "channel". That's somewhat equivalent to an album in iPhoto. In that channel you click on share this channel and there will be code available for a ticker tap, a slideshow, etc. You copy that code and put it into an HTML Snippet on a page. Viewers who click on the ticker tape would normally be taken to your channel at the OVI.com site. To prevent that put a transparent shape over the ticker tape item.

  • Ticker tape

    I have just been told to see if I can provide text that is like a Wall street ticker tape for a test sequence. Any ideas where I would begin with that one?
    Brian

    In FCP, click on the Generator Button (the button with the "A" on it in the lower right corner of the Viewer) and from the drop down menu, choose Boris > Title Crawl.
    Edit that to the timeline (it will be empty) where you want your text crawl to take place, then double click on the clip you just edited to load it to the viewer. Click on the Controls Tab, then the "Title Crawl" button. This will bring up the pane where you can enter and stylize your text.
    When you have your text entered, click apply to have the text appear on the timeline. Depending on the horse power and complexity of the material the crawl is place on, you may have to render to see the effect play back in real time.
    You can use the other controls under the control tab to make other adjustments.

  • Ticker Tape text scroller...

    I am able to make a ticker-tape text scroll from right to left on my screen in PowerPoint,
    but it scrolls so fast it is impossible to read it! Can it be slowed down? Please reply. Thanks!
    H. Slovic

    Dear Meg St. Clair,
    Thanks for your reply! Very kind of you, and I appreciate.
    Actually, I'm working on an iMac using PowerPoint for Mac in MS Office for Mac. I have succeeded in creating a right-to-left "ticker tape" of text at the bottom of the screen, but there is no way to adjust/control the speed of "fly by," and it currently flies by so fast it is a blur--not very useful... The "ticker tape" function is so "basic" (it appears on almost every news channel here in Japan), that it amazes me it's not a standard animation feature on either PowerPoint or Keynote. H. Slovic

  • I used the ticker tape mode to add subtitles to a clip. When playing it in the pc, the Subtitles are fine, however, when playing it on the tv, only the top half of the words are visible. Any idea why?

    I added subtitles to a movie clip using the ticker tape option. When viewing on the iMac, the words are visible, however, when playing it in the tv, only the top half of the words are visible. Does anyone know why?

    I would agree with Keith Barkley, it may be the TV Safe Area. You can see what spots might be blocked out or cut off by going to iDVD and opening the original DVD project, under the View Menu > Show TV Safe Area. If your title gets cut off by the cropping rectangle displayed, that may account for the cut-off.

  • Please someone help. When I tap Purchased on the ipad, it won't open to show me my purchases. It just says loading, but never does!

    Please help! When I tap Purchased on my ipad, it won't open to show me the purchased apps. It says 'Loading' but never does. I use the apps to help my daughter who has an Autism Spectrum Disorder. Thank you in advance 

    Hi, I was having the same problem on my new Mini.  It would load fine on my iP3 and my phone but not my mini.  My two daughters both have iPads linked to my iTunes account.  They download a bunch of apps and I suspected this had something to do with it.
    After a few hours, I found how to hide the purchased apps in iTunes (go to Store, App Store (up the top) then the Apps tab.  Hover the mouse until you get an X then click on it.  It doesn't delete it from your library, just stops it showing up on your iPad.  I did this, launched Purchased on my iPad mini and boom they all came up.  I just hid those I don't use/want any more, and some of the older ones my kids have purchased.  Cut the number down from nearly 500 to 280 and it loads like a charm now.

  • Help me style buttons & forms in InDesign

    Hi there, I am using Buttons & Forms in the Interactive for PDF workspace for the first time, and am having trouble with a few things:
    -  I can't seem to change the style of the text in a text field. It reverts to 12pt black Times in the PDF, even when I've selected another colour, fonts & size in InDesign. I can then change it in Acrobat, but that's annoying.
    -  I am also having trouble with Check Boxes. I want it to be clear until they rollover, then for a customised tick to appear & stay when clicked. I've customised the tick OK, but the cross keeps appearing when the tick's not there.
    One more thing, can I use my Typekit range of fonts for forms, or am I best to use standard system fonts for viewing at the user end?

    If you export a PDF from Indesign and the pages don't come out as they look in Indesign, you used the wrong export settings. That also impacts your custom fonts. They need to be included in the PDF, of course.
    Check boxes: you need to select the correct one and better test it first on a separate PDF. Different Acrobat versions and other PDF reader will result in different display formats of those check boxes.

  • Need help for style not displaying correctly in chm

    I’m using RoboHelp HTML version 8.  RH8 is dropping a style from my stylesheet.  The style appears to be applied correctly when I view a topic (the HTML file) directly with either IE or Firefox browser, and it appears correctly when I view the topic with the “Item View” feature in RH8 (the eyeglasses icon).  However, in the compiled HTML help output from RH, the style is not correct.  The style in question is a class of style (“desc” for descriptions) for a subset of table data. The “desc” class should have the data in the cell left justified, and the cell width should be 50%.  The main parent style for table data (centered text, cell width varies) seems to be applied instead, and the child style for descriptions is not applied.  Below I've included a screen shot of a table page as it looks in Item Viewer, then the same page as it appears in the CHM, and finally the style sheet in its original state before being added to RH.
    Here are things I’ve checked for:
    ·         The project is large, with over 6300 topics and a compiled chm of 5560 KB.  RH crashes when I try to apply style sheets or master pages to multiple topics from the Topic List.  However, I created a much smaller test project with 122 topics and still get the dropped style.
    ·         The style sheets were created outside of RH, and are also used for presenting the same content over the web outside of RH.  The styles display fine in the other context through a browser.  I have not modified the style sheet in RH, but I have opened it in RH.  I’ve also tried deleting and re-copying the style sheet into the project.
    ·         There is another set of styles applying to the tables, for table rows.  There is a “tr” class for the heading and classes for rotating background colors.  These child styles appear correct with no problems.  Every row in a table belongs to a child class of row styles.  In the case of table data styles, most cells require the parent “td” style and only a subclass require the child “desc” style.  It’s the “desc” style that isn’t showing up in the chm.  Is this a clue?
    ·         Multiple style sheets per topic.  Apparently only one style sheet can be used per topic.  In my project, I have two types of topics, called schema pages and table pages, with a style sheet for each.  The same master page is used for both types.  The master page uses the tables style sheet.  Therefore, the tables topics (the ones with the dropped style) use only one style sheet, but it is specified in both the master page and the topic itself.   Is this a problem?
    ·         Reviewing the style sheet in RH.  When I inspect the style sheet through RH’s Project Manager, the table data and table row styles appear under “Other” and not under “Table.”  Is this a clue?
    The special formatting of the description cells in our table-heavy project is essential.  I’ve spend days trying to troubleshoot this problem and would appreciate any help anyone can offer.

    Hi jensei,
    Thanks for that. When I took that screenshot - bizarrely those cells all had exactly the same html. I can't easily prove that now as I have tinkered with that test page quite a lot since. I started thinking maybe I could do something "clever" with table styles to save me the joyless task of manually editing all tables in my project. In the end I gave up and decided to devote a couple of hours to going through and reformatting all tables with a font that was the same size and of a similar type face to the rest of the page. Obviously not an option in your monster project, but it worked for me.
    I've seen so many random results here that I can't get my head around what exactly is going wrong - for me the issue seems connected with style = none in a table.
    Anywhere else on the page, style = none yields text with font = Tahoma 10pt.
    But in the table cells that text sometimes rendered ok in CHM, but often it would randomly appear far larger.
    So for me the cure was to format all tables with font = arial 10pt (rendered result is similar, but somehow different enough to stop the erroneous size rendering).
    That's as far as I got - as usual with time being very precious, I've had to curb my geekiness and crack on.
    Cheers,
    Andy

  • GREP help "apply style before the ' – ' and add return"

    Hi,
    I'm a newbie to GREP and not good at code so I need some help.
    I think if I new the code to say " apply Heading Paragraph style to text before the ' – ' and add return.
    Then it would work.
    I'm OK with looping nested paragraph styles.

    Thanks for the help so far. It's working but I still to iron some things out.
    Replacing the em dash with a paragraph space or return is straight forward. But getting the styles applied while doing that is not working.
    Also I want to split the phone and fax separated by the '/" onto separate lines.

  • Help with Styles/Style Sheets

    The area of styles and style sheets has been an immense frustration for me in AW pretty much forever. I'm simply unable to make them work in the way that all the documentation seems to indicate that they should and, worse than that, I seem to be unable to make them consistently fail in the same way from one try to the next.
    The most common failing, the one that represents it coming as close to working as I seem to ever see it, is when applying a paragraph style to another selected paragraph and seeing all of the Paragraph but none of the Text formatting coming through: The indenting and line spacing will be changed correctly, and any and all Style info (from Text:Style, I mean) comes through correctly, but no change occurs to the original font or size.
    The custom style does display the correct font information, but the 'original' fond style and size don't change.
    I can't believe that after all of this time and effort I'm still missing something, but perhaps I am. If anyone could manage to point out just what that is then I'd be eternally grateful.

    Thank you for the quick and helpful response.
    I'm pretty sure I understand about setting the desired style info and I can usually, but not always, see what I was trying to set up displayed in the Text and Para. Attributes flippies.
    Not, however, always. In those cases when the font is displayed, but not the size, then size changes aren't passed along and you'll usually also see other strangeness (see below). The solution for this problem, for me at least, is to repeat the process but this time first change the font to something else and then back to the desired setting; for some reason, this will force it to appear and to work normally, more or less.
    A simple way for me to tell whether or not the Styles Window is going to be working as it should is to click on different paragraphs and watch the display in the Styles window. When things are as normal as I think they get, the checkmark will accurately display the style currently assigned to that paragraph; if not, it will not.
    When things are working correctly, then style selection works normally and clicking anywhere in a paragraph to be changed, then double-clicking on the desired style in the Styles Window, will result in a proper change to that style (or as well as it can, given the difficulties you see with compound styles and attributes becoming 'stuck').
    When not working correctly, OTOH, the whole function is different. Clicking on a paragraph, as mentioned above, won't necessarily correctly indicate the current style for that para., and double-clicking on the new desired style will do nothing at all. Instead, in these cases, you must have the entire paragraph selected before double-clicking on the style desired and, after doing so, you'll see that although para. attributes will seemingly always be changed it's very common (almost the rule, actually) that some or all of the differing text attributes won't be applied, even though they are correctly displayed in the body of the style itself.
    I've been about as careful as I can be in setting up and testing all of this and for the life of me can't see clear reasons why outcomes are so different between two identical test documents. There are other oddities, such as the fact that editing of a style via the menu structure works fairly well and as described as long as the Styles Window itself is working correctly, as described above, but gets wildly different results if it is not.
    Even when working correctly, it seems to always leave the 'case zero' paragraph, the one that originated the style, unchanged in one way or another; for example, I wound up with a document having four identical paragraphs, all having the same style assigned, and all showing the same style assigned in the Styles Window, but having different appearances: The original style was Bold and, after that was removed in the editing process, the other 3 paragraphs correctly showed normal, i.e., not Bold, font. The first para. continued to be bold, and to show Bold as checked in the menu, even though the Style did not call for it to be.
    As in other cases where things got stuck in some way or another, this was cleared by editing again, going into the style menu (Text:Style, I mean), and cycling things. In this case, this meant first selecting Bold, then deselecting it; after that, the lead paragraph displayed correctly.
    Those are just a few examples of what I've been seeing and dealing with. It's not the simplest of features but, between the contents of AW > Help and _AW 6: The Missing Manual_ I think I should have a good enough idea of how it works and how to use it. Unfortunately, it just seems to occasionally be wandering off and getting lost.

  • Regarding Help file style

    Hi all,
    I am new to RoboHelp. We created  "Application Help" project and generated .chm file sucessfully.Every thing is working fine with generated help file.
    Check the MicrosoftWord2007 help file by click on F1.My client wants the same look and feel with my help file.
    Does any one know if it is possible to generate the same look & feel help file with Adobe RoboHelp. If yes what type of project should i select from the availabe projects list and how can we generate?.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated....

    Hi madhubmk and welcome to the RH community.
    I dare say most of what MS offers could be achieved by RH. Bare in mind that MS can afford to throw resources into their help documentation to come up with a heavilly customised look and feel. That is something that most places can only dream of. MS help uses a customised window, lots of DHTML drop downs, custom icons, etc. all of which can be handled by RH. I'd go back to the client and get them to highlight exactly which elements they like and then go from there.
