How can I replace a 3D object in AE file with another 3D object?

I am an AE novice, but an expert in many Adobe products, as well as a quick learner. I have purchased an AE file from videohive.net for a Christmas eCard we are producing for my agency. The file has a Christmas snow globe with a 3D Christmas tree inside it. I want to replace the Christmas tree object with a different object that doesn't yet exist. I want to create an object in Illustrator and extrude it, and hopefully import it into my AE file. Is this possible/difficult?

There's quite a lot of content at Videohive that might be the project you're talking about.  Can you provide a link to it?
Many Videohive projects contain pre-rendered 3D elements from other applications that are not easily replaced.  It's impossible to say in this instance without seeing the project you're referring to.

    How can I replace the out of the box photos with my own when music is playing?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Select any photos you want to share with the Apple TV using the iTunes advanced menu (using iPhoto is the better option but a folder will work). Once all the photos you want are shared, go to settings > screensaver on the Apple TV and choose which of those shared photos you want to use with your screensaver.

  • 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 replace the previous owner's apple ID with my own apple ID?

    I recently bought a second hand iPod touch - maybe not the best idea. Anyway, as default setting the machine still has the previous owner's apple ID and email, so that I cannot download anything. How can I change this?

  • How can I copy the layer from one .PSD file to another .PSD file?

    Hi,
    Actually it is shape and mask on one layer which I want to use it on my Photoshop CS4 file. If I select all the layer and copy it to my file it just copies the shape but not the mask. How can I copy MASK to my file?
    Please do hlep.
    Actually I am trying to copy the following layer.

    I believe the fastest way would be to duplicate the layer and send it to the other document. Open both images. Click the document tab of the document with the shape layer. With the shape layer selected in the layers palette, right click where it says the shape layer name. Select "duplicate layer" from the context menu. In the dialog that comes up, select the document you want to copy that layer to in the destination box then press ok.
    Alternately, you can open both images then pull the document frame tabs down to open both images in your workspace. Grab the shape layer in the document's layers palette by left clicking it...keep the left button pressed (hand icon should be a grab icon). While left button is still pressed, drag the shape layer over the receiving document. To make the shape layer register in the same location, press the shift key and keep it pressed. Release left mouse button while the layer is over the receiving document. Release shift key after you have released the left mouse button.
    This tutorial has a good photo reference for what I mean when I say pull the image tabs down so both documents appear in the same workspace...also shows drag/drop:

  • How did I replace all footage from one imovie project with another

    I have three projects in my project library A, B and C. While editing B I somehow accidentally copied all my clips from project B into project A, erased all project A footage while the title remained the same. I want my project A footage back and can't find it. Time machine wasn't set up at the time (I thought it was automatically already going from the day I purchased it). Undo functions only go back once. Three people at Apple have no answer, saying that you can't transfer contents from one project library piece to another while still in the project library part of the screen. I'm sick if it's lost because it took forever to edit, but I want to figure out what I did so I don't accidentally do it again. If I didn't transfer from project to project, how did a copy of B get into my A file and erase its contents?
    Project A seems gone, as the orange lines in the event library clips indicating which parts have been used are also gone.

    Choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, provide /Users/ as the path, drag one account's home folder to the other's desktop, and move the items inside it to the desired locations.

  • How can I make waveform graph and/or excel file with two different dynamic DBL values?

    As the question describes, I have two dbl sources from a load cell and linear actuator (from firgelli). I want to make a load/displacement curve from the force readings from the load cell and the displacement readings from the linear actuator. The load cell outputs an analog signal that can be acquired by a DAQ and the actuator comes in with a board and VI program to control the speed and measure the displacement of the actuator to a sample rate of my choosing. Is there a way that I can make a VI where it continues to collect data and construct the graph I'm looking for?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    A couple points about your application:
    1.  Synchronization.  Since you're ultimate goal is a stress/strain curve, it is vital that your force and displacement data be synchronized appropriately.  If your sampling is beyond a few times a second, this is not really possible without some form of hardware synchronization via either a trigger and/or sample clock.  Two NI DAQ boards can be synchronized this way easily, but it seems you're using 3rd party hardware for one of these processes.  Would need to know more about that board to know what options you have.  You could specify what your resolution is in distance, and how fast the article will be moving, to get an idea of how fast to acquire, and how well you'll need to synchronize the data.  Another option, since it appears each data stream will be sampled on a hardware-timed sample clock, they will be offset in time, but not skewed during the acquisition.  You may be able to identify a feature in the data set common to each and use that to remove the timing offset after the process is completed.
    2.  Display.  To display data during the acquisition process, I usually recommend at least one display that plots vs. time.  Much easier to spot irregularities with the acquisition process that way.  However, if you'd like to also plot force vs. displacement, you can use an XY Graph to plot parametrically. For Example, in your case you would use the Displacement data as the X coordinates, and the Force data as the Y coordinates.
    3.  Saving data to file.  I would recommend using the Save to Spreadsheet File.vi (File IO pallette) to save your data.  If you use a comma as the delimiter, and save the file with a *.csv extension, you will have a file that is easily read into excel.  The standard tab-delimited spreadsheet file is also fine, it will just require an extra step to read it into excel to specify to excel what the delimiter is.
    4.  Batch vs. Real-Time Recording (Data File).  If your process is short (< 30 sec) you may be better off acquiring the data, Storing it locally to the VI (Array - usually maintained in a shift register), and then writing the file with a header (acquisition parameters, test article information, data column headers) and the data all at once in batch mode to the file after the process is finished.  If, however, it is longer than that you would be better off starting a data file with a header and appending the data to the file as you go, so that if something happens during your test, you at least have data up to that point.
    Hope this Helps,
    Kurt

  • How can my replacement gain access to all the files on my work computer

    I am retiring from my place of employment after 14 years on the job--my choice as I've reached retirement age.  I've been a Mac guy for over 5 years now and my replacment is inheriting my computer, a Mac Pro with a 2TB hard drive I added a couple of years ago when I outgrew the original 750GB drive (which is still installed).  I use Mail which has probably 100,000 stored messages, and all of my documents...tons of them.  My replacement needs to take over the machine and "make it hers" but she will still need to have access to all my "stuff" to continue in the position...all my mail, calendar, address book, and documents for MS Office 2011, Adobe CS programs, etc.
    I went to the users part of system preferences today and added her as a new identity and as an administrator, but it gives here a "virgin" finder, without all the additions I had put in the sidebar of my finder, etc.  In fact it defaulted to the original "Macintosh HD" which I had nearly filled until I added the second hard drive, the one that is 2TB in size.
    Is there a way to configure the Mac Pro (it uses Lion and is too old to upgrade to Mountail Lion) so that she can gain access to all of my "stuff"?

  • How can I update an app (iphoto) that was registered with another apple id?

    I bought an used Macbook Air, with Macosx 10.7.3 on it. It included apps like Iphoto and garage band. When I want to update them, I can't because the App Store is requiring the old apple ID.
    Is there a way to change the apple ID for updates of apps that came with the OS?
    I've tried to trash Iphoto and download it again from the app store but instead of "install" the button says "Accept" (to accept updates). However, when I click on it it asks for the old Apple ID.
    Thanks in advance for any ideas you may have.
    Dan

    Hello,
    You can't merge or change Apple ID. Applications are tied with the Apple ID used to make the purchases.
    In your case the only way to download them again is to use the old Apple ID.

  • How do I stop an automatic 'sharing' of my files with another Mac user in my address book?

    Hi all
    I have just installed Lion and it has started to 'share' access to other mac users files - all of which come from my address book. How do I stop this and delate the links that have been created ? Very embarrassing right now - some of these people are my clients!

    Pamachi --
    The easiest ways are through FaceTime (video calling) or actual screen scaring via iChat.

    Frank,
    I tried to find some examples/samples on how to create CollectionModel for a table component but not successful.
    Can you clarify the following ?
    1. "CollectionModel" is referenced only by af:table attributes "value", "selectedRowKeys" and "selectionListener".
    The rest of af:table attributes such as "rows", "fetchSize" used to reference the iterator binding in the binding container via the EL expression "#{bindings.VOIteratorBinding.xxx} .
    What should I replace that EL expression with?
    2. I heck out the bean method to create the CollectionModel as following, is it close to what you mean?
    public void initBusinessDataDashboardView() {
    OperationBinding operation = BeanUtils.getOperationBinding("getPanelBusinessData");
    Map params = operation.getParamsMap();
    Key panelKey = getPanelInfoView().getKey();
    params.put("panelKey", panelKey);
    params.put("maximizedView", false);
    panelView = (ViewObject)operation.execute();
    // Heck code to create CollectionModel
    RowSet rowSet = panelView.getRowSet();
    ArrayList rowList = new ArrayList();
    while (rowSet.hasNext()) {
    rowList.add(rowSet.next());
    model = new ChildPropertyTreeModel(rowList, null);
    // To be used to set up af:table value, selectRowKeys, selectionListener via EL expr #{backingBeanScope.MyBean.model.xxx}
    public CollectionModel getModel() {
    return model;
    Am I on the right track?

  • How / can I have jpg logo objects used on reports automatically updated

    How / can I have jpg logo objects used on reports automatically updated after making changes to the repository copy of the jpg logo object in the repository?   The reports are in the enterprise items folder of the repository and the logo.jpg file is in a subfolder of repository items.  I made changes but the changes seem to apply only after I set my options in crystal reports and open the actual rpt file itself. 
    Is there a way to have the changes to the logo show / apply in all reports that have the repository item logo inserted into it without having to open every rpt file in the repository?

    Yes, I understand that...  the problem I was having was that check box being unchecked whenever an unrelated change was made to rpt file...  I was able to ensure that it remained checked by doing save as to the rpt file and making sure the "enable repository refresh" box was checked and replacing the file when prompted upons saving the rpt file...
