How can I create 'sub-routines'?

…, a simplified description what I like to accomplish:
I'd like to create a generator which lists the, say,  5 (in real: 11...) members of a team:
1,2,3,4,5
I'd like to have a drop-down-menu to select from a range of players (A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H), so position #1=player A, #2=C, #3=E, #4=F, #5=B ...
that's easy .... learned that, did use the 'snapshot' function for a previous version of this generator.
But!
next season, it should be a sequence, each player appears after the other (and each item is a short animation, title, fade/in out of pic) - ...
so, the animation of Player B could appear at 00:10 or 00:20 or 01:40 ...
It would bloat my Motion project to infinity, if I put ALL player-animations at ANY optional time-line position (and in FCPX, I can select which animation at what time index)... in final version it's 23 optional players at 11 positions of the timeline = 253 'tracks'!
Question:
any smart idea how 'link' from the timeline of the Motion-project to some 'sub timeline'?
in FCPX I would like to see 11 drop-menus; 1-11 defines the sequence of appearance, and I can select at each position any team-member...
... hope this makes sense ....
maybe I'm thinking way too complicated ...
k.

Place your players inside a group (called Players). You can arrange the order any way you like, but top down will be more convenient.
Move the playhead to the beginning, select the top (in the list) player) and type "O" to set an out point. From there, you should be able to hit the down arrow and type I - O to set a one frame in and out for each of the player images.
Select the Players group and type K to clone it - name it Team. You now have an Image Sequence to work with.
Replicate the Team image sequence. For each replicator, give it the Position Name. Turn the Shape to Line; Start and End Points at 0,0; Points 1.  Turn off Play Frames in the Cell Controls and use the Source Start Frame to pick the player for that position.
You can duplicate Replicators (easier) or replicate the Team image sequence.
Is that about what you wanted?

  • How can I create "Sub Queries" in a select statement?

    Hi all,
    I need to create reports, which are not based on a single table but on several "sub-queries".
    This would be the code, but I don't know how to solve that problem...
    SELECT OGBI.*

    thx a lot for your help.

    Please can you post the full select statement and the DDL to create the tables? Or, provide someone access to the app on the Oracle server.
    We can probably make these much more readable using table aliases and removing the owner unless you are doing this across schemas or via a wizard?
    It looks like you are missing joins in your query - is this what you mean by subqueries? It is a good idea to move the join up before the WHERE clause if you can as this makes the query easier to manage.

  • How can I create sub tasks in the UWL

    Hello All,
    I have a requirement where in I am pulling all the SAP Business Workplace notifications into the UWL. In UWL we want to have sub tasks or in other words we want to have selections based on subjects.
    For eg. In SAP if there are three workflows running for three diffrent tasks then in UWL I should have an option to choose among the three and have the notifications based on the selected subject.
    Let me know how this can be done. Looking forward to you.
    Regards
    DK

    Hi Dipendra,
    What i understood from your message is that  if you choose a Task for
    processing then a notification should be sent based on that task Subject
    Is this what you exactly meant or something else.
    plese clarify
    Thanks & Regards

  • How can I create sub-arrays based on the positions of indicies in a separate index array?

    Please forgive me if this question is basic or obvious. I am fairly new to LabVIEW and I'm trying to learn as I go along.
    I have a 1D array of index values (the number of possible index values is not fixed, but can vary between uses of the application; it could be just {0, 1} on one day and {1, 5, 11, 678} on another) and a 1D array of measurement values (doubles). I'd like to parse the measurement values into sub-arrays for each index, so that if my index array was:
    [0 1 1 1 1 5 5 0 5 5 1 0 1 1 5]
    and my measurement array was:
    [0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.8 0.9 0.10 0.11 0.12 0.13 0.14 0.15]
    I would get back 3 sub-arrays:
    [0.1 0.8 0.12]
    [0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.11 0.13 0.14]
    [0.6 0.7 0.9 0.10 0.15]
    I know there must be a simple way to do this, I guess I'm just stuck too much in matlab-array thinking to figure it out... please help!

    OK, all we need is a trivial modification of what we already have. XY graph data is easiest handled using complex data. Here's a quick rewrite. See if this works for you.

  • How can I create a sub-folder within my "Documents" folder?

    How can I create a sub-folder within my "Documents" folder? I have many similar documents that I want to group together. This will also un-clutter my Documents folder.

    Also, you can add a New Folder button to the Finder's toolbar by opening Finder, going to the View menu in the menubar, selecting Customize Toolbar..., and dragging the New Folder icon to the toolbar in the Finder window. Then it's just one-click for new folders wherever you want them.

  • How can I debug a routine created in Deletion of similar requests?

    Hello Experts,
    I need some help from you. I need to delete overlapping requests and the common
    settings you can set are not suitable, so I decided to write my own ABAP routine.
    But how can I debug a routine, which is implemented in the deletion of similar requests?
    Hope you can help me.
    Cheers
    Daniel Weilbacher

    Please go to the routine code..
    In the menu options..u will find an option for breakpoint--set..
    The line where breakpoint is set will get highlighted and u will also see a STOP symbol..
    then come out of routine..and then run the data load..
    this ABAP routine for overlapping request deletion runs before the scheduled data load..
    the run shud stop at the set breakpoint and show the routine code..in debugger mode..
    cheers,

  • How do I create sub-pages in iWeb?

    Hi, How do I create sub-pages in iweb like it does in this website
    http://www.e-alliance.ch/index.php?id=405
    with all the main menus "about us", "advocacy capacity", etc?
    Thank you for your help!!!
    Boaz

    To create sub pages, just ensure that the main menu item is in the main menu and then for the sub pages themselves, ensure that they are NOT in the main menu and you link back by creating links instead.
    For example, you could use Staff as a main menu item, so Staff would be in the main menu and then descriptions of different staff members would be underneath, but not in the main menu - they would have separate links that you create and then hyperlink.
    If you want to make drop down menus in iWeb, as in the site that you linked to, you can't do this directly in iWeb itself.  You have to make it and then upload various css files to your web host and link to it in iWeb etc.  It is quite a complex task to create drop down menus in iWeb.  If you want to do that, then I would suggest that you use a different app instead - take a look at http://www.everwebapp.com.

  • How can I create a drawing like the one pictured from a photo?

    How can I create a drawing like the one pictured from a photo?

    OK, you are getting closer. Now, use your result, and place a Layer above that. Use the Pen Tool to create the "pen strokes" basically tracing over your background image. Then, when you have created each Path (or Sub-Path), choose Stroke Path, with probably the Pencil Tool and a Brush size that is small enough.
    Not sure which versions of PS these are good for, but here are some plug-ins, that might be helpful.

  • How can I create additional "Sent Mail" folders so that I can organize my sent mail along the same lines as the inbox? I use Mail v 4.5

    How can I create additional or sub "Sent Mail" folders so that I can organize my sent mail along the same lines as the inbox? I use Mail v 4.5.

    Thank you for your reply Don, but I had already gone through that procedure and it will only create new mailboxes for received mail. I want to create new mailboxes for sent mail, i.e. the first column being "to" not "from". Under the Mailbox menus there is an option "Use This Mailbox For" but all the options under that (including Sent) are greyed out. Unfortunately the View/Columns option to change from "From" to "To" changes all mailboxes not just the active one.

    How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )
    i know its not a problem whit my carrier o data plan or sharing preferences on the ipone because when i use it un my laptop it works perfectly through
    the usb and even works on the Imac through wifi and bluethood tethering but NOT through usb!!.
    the problem is that trying to make it work i deleted the "profile" usb iphone on the network prefereces panel. Now i only have 3 options: ethernet / wifi / bluetooth
    but not the usb iPhone i used to have.
    And when i try to add a new one i dont get a USB option.
    can some one help me please??
    this is how it looks (after the bluetooth PAN i used to have USB iPhone option)

    The question would be more appropriate in the Mac forums as it is not really related to the iPhone.

    How can I create a text pop up window in my Pages document? I want text to pop up when the reader hovers his/her cursor over a certain word in the document. I am teacher. So for example when a student came to word he/she did not know, if he/she hovered the cursor over the word, a defintion or other information would appear.  You can do this in Word using bookmarks/hyperlinks but I can't figure this out in Pages. I can link it to another point in my Pages document but I just need the text to pop up - not take the reader to another location.  THANK YOU!!!!!!
