How can i control gif animations?

I have a project in which i need some animations. The animations all have been created in After Effects. Now I can use the png sequences, but these are very big and i need a lot animations running on the same time. So i would rather use the gif animations. So my question: I can control when to play the gif animation but i can't play it more than one time. Is there a solution?
Thanks for answering!

Hi there,
I see...you're controlling when it displays. Technically, that's not the same as controlling the animated GIF; you're just controlling when you see it. EA recognizes GIF only as an image format, and can't make the browser play from the beginning other than the first time it's displayed or when it loops back (if your animated GIF loops).
However, you could do something similar with an extra image file or two, jQuery, and css background-image to "load" the GIF file into a transparent image. Here's a link to an example that always runs the animated GIF from the beginning:

A single line of code that does the work is in the playBtn click handler.

How Can I Edit Gif Animation

I have a gif animation of a cat playing a sax. In ImageReady I want to edit it to replace the sax with a microphone so I "Placed" a vector gif of the microphone- after erasing the sax and cloning to fill in where needed. The problem is that when I attempt to move the microphone in the first layer, it happens to all the layers and if I try to move it to a new position in any other layer, it moves in the others too. How can I make it "stick" in each layer, in different positions? I have tried to lock all the layers but the one I am working on... I just don't know what I need to do. thanks

Here is one fairly quick and easy way that should work with Win98. Create a new object, but not a Lookout object. Click on the activeX tab and look in the Recommended folder. There you should find Microsoft Web Browser. Select this as your new object to create. Change the name if you want, but leave everything else blank. Now from Windows Explorer simply drag the GIF file and drop it in the object display. The animation should begin doing whatever it does right away.

Try wrapping the call in a bootstrapCallback function.

MultipartRequest, how can I control this?

Hi Everybody, I'm building a web page in Jsp, and in this the user can send to the server a file (a picture). The file arrive to the server thanks to 'MultipartRequest'. This is the code:
File newDir = new File(Dir);
newDir.mkdir();
MultipartRequest multi = null;
try
multi = new MultipartRequest(request, Dir, 90000);
catch (IOException e){ }
My question is, how can I control, that the file is not a virus or its lenght is too much?
Thanks for all

Hi, I believe you are using the com.oreilly.servlet package.
If so you probably also have the com.oreilly.servlet.multipart package too.
So you could try to use the MultipartParser class which I believe it's better to handle MultipartRequests.
The constructor is MultipartParser(request,size), and then you have a readNextPart() method. Then you can check if this part is a FilePart.
Once you have a FilePart, you can get its fileName (by getFileName()) and would be easy to control if the file's type is what you wanted (e.g. gif,jpeg,...).
Regarding the file size I haven't found a direct method but I believe you should analyse this package and with some workaround it should be done.
Hope this helps, regards.

How can I control selection on a PDF

I have Acrobat Pro 9 Pro build 9.4.6 and am constantly exporting documents from indesign to .pdf, and also building docs in the 'combine' feature from mixed pages.
While everything seems to go reasonably well, I have a few problems that are due either to my ignorance, or bugs.
1. The biggie; How can I control what I select, for the purpose of copying, moving and deleting? When I drag the touch-up object tool over my selection, it selects what it wants to most of the time; sometimes it selects (i.e., puts a light blue box around) the entire page, instead of my selection (no pages are scanned). There are very few instances when I get exactly what I want; there are usually a few lines above or below, no matter how careful I am in my selection. The funny thing is that this is not a constant; sometimes, the tool works perfectly! and I have my heart in my mouth every time I really need it to work, hoping that it will not force me to go back to Indesign to make minor corrections. Perhaps my problems are connected to options I select when exporting my indds, but I've tried checking, clearing, and selecting various combinations and nothing seems to work.
Sometimes, the text selection tool is strange; a wide blue swath develops over the selected text, even though it is still usually possible to edit the text in this condition. And BTW, is there anything to do about the fact that some text can't be edited at all because a suitable font replacement can't be found? Can't a font be added somehow that will take care of this?
2. Headers and Footers; fairly effortless, but if the footer contains two rows and I want them centered, the second row looks centered in the preview but not in the doc. I have to go back to the footer dialog and guesstimate how many spaces to place before the second row to get it to look centered. Also, is there any way to place a logo in a header? That would be one of my requests for the next version of Acrobat, if not.
3.Hyperlinks; they don't always work,even though I check Hyperlinks in the Export settings. Sometimes yes, sometimes no.
4. Typwriter toolbar; it also seems to offer font and size changes whenever it feels like it, and I've tried all different orders of typing, selecting, etc.

It's me again, sorry! I wanted to save what I'd written, and my message popped up to the board.
Thank you for any advice anyone has!
PS My indd and acrobat are the same version, as they came in the same package (CS4). Windows XP sp3.
Oh, one more thing I just remembered, as long as I'm complaining; sometimes if I place an object (the logo) and copy it to another page, it disappears on the original page, as if I've cut it. Any fix for that? (strange how I can edit tmy 'reply' but not my original post...well, at least I found where to ask a question fairly quickly!)

How can I control the zoom on my mac mouse?

How can I control the zoom function on my mouse? In the middle of working on things my hand will rub the mouse by accident and all of a sudden the context within the screen is large. I have no idea of how to work this feature on my mouse and most times to get it to return to normal, I have to escape out of the work I am performing.

If you are pressing the "Control" button on the Mac keyboard, scrolling up will zoom in and scrolling down will zoom out. You can disable this if it annoys you through System Preferences > Universal Access. If you are using Mountain Lion, it would be System Preferences > Accessibility.
Uncheck the in the "Seeing" or "Zoom" section that says "Use scroll gesture with modifier keys to zoom". It may be slightly different if you have an older OS X version. I have Mountain Lion and am going off of memory on the older versions.

How can I control a button from one swf file to another swf file?

Hi,
I have a main.swf file. From that file I am accessing the external.swf file which is an external file.
Now, how can I write code on my main.swf file for the button which is on my external.swf file?
Activities.MainPanel.close_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClickClose);
Activities.MainPanel.close_btn (This buttons is actually on external.swf file, but I want to write code on main.swf file to execute it on external.swf) how can I control one swf button on other swf file?
Thanks.

Here's some example code that you should be able to adapt to your needs.
// create a new loader object instance...
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
// make the download request...
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("external.swf");
// add a complete event listener to the loader
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
// start the actual loading process...
loader.load(request);
// create a new empty movieClip instance, you will put the loaded movie into this movieClip once its loaded
var externalMovie:MovieClip;
// this function is called when the download has finished and the file is ready to use...
function completeHandler(event:Event):void {
   // set the contents of the loaded movie to the new empty movieClip...
           externalMovie = MovieClip(event.target.content);
   // add this new movie to the display list...
   addChild(externalMovie);
Now you can refer to the loaded movie with the instance name "externalMovie". So if, for instance, you want to address a button in the loaded movie, you could write something like this on the main timeline:
externalMovie.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClickClose);
function btnClickClose(event:MouseEvent):void {

How can i control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?

Sup buddies,
How can I control what images load on my project to save preload time and avoid loading all images, elements, divs not yet visible?
As the project grows in size the load time increases. How does one control not loading all images ,divs,elements etc. until they're
needed on the timeline? For example some sections are off and only become visible when recalled. My projects slowly grow in size so loading
all images , is counter productive . My other option would be to create separate htmls but that breaks the seamless user experience .
TY...Over N Out...

hello, kiwi
quote: "Is there an easy way to burn a completed project to DVD, but keep only the (lo res, lo size) previews on my hard drive?"
yes.
maybe,...
1. you might think of making DVD backups first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
or,
2. bring in the photographs to hard drive first prior to importing the photos into Aperture. "Store Files: In their current location" once in Aperture make low rez Previews, and export finished Project.
the low rez Previews will stay in Aperture but the high quality Versions will be exported onto DVDs and gone from the hard drive (if you delete the originals).
another way would be to export small about 50-70 pixel wide high quality jpegs to a folder on your Desktop and import & keep these in Aperture Library as a reference. make metadata to show where the original Project DVDs are stored and DVD filing system used.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Photos in slideshows will only be showed once until the slideshow repeats. If you want it to show more than once you will need to duplicate it.
Photos in screensavers show randomly.

How can I control my fan speed?

How can I control my fan speed on my macbook pro? I use SMC for gaming and streaming video from the internet when using my Mac OS, but I partitioned my drive and installed Windows 8 in order to play a different game (not a huge game) and the computer heats up dramatically when playing on Windows through Boot Camp to the point that it freezes every time (it never does this when playing a mac game or streaming on the normal partition Mac OS).
Any suggestions or programs to control fan speed of the mac from windows?

Get a cooling pad. That will much better than trying to constantly adjust fan speeds.
Ciao.

How can I control my my mac mini with my macbook air (no wifi)?

How can I control my my mac mini with my macbook air (no wifi)? Also...what is the best method (less lag) for screen sharing?
I own a mac mini Quad Server 2.0 i7 and I use it for audio production. It's great but I need to travel with it. I was hoping some form of screen sharing could be useful using the macbook air to control the mac mini. Therefore, I'd be using the stronger processor of the mac mini but would still be using the keyboard and trackpad from the air.
My two problems:
1. I can't depend on wifi to make this happen. Wifi is not always available when travleing. What would be the best way to configure a LAN connection?
2. The less lag the better for screen sharing. Which apps are fastest?
Thanks in advance.

Both of your devices have WiFi built in. Here is Apple Support's solution:
