How can I "spray on" a title in PE8?

Hi,
I work for a coatings company. I want to start a video by having the name of my product appear on a background as if it were being sprayed with a paint gun. Does anyone know if I can at least approximate this in PE8?
Thanks!
Steve
P.S. As fate would have it, I inherited a spare laptop that was identical to my main one. I did a clean install of Windows 7 (from the original of Windows Vista Business) and then installed PE8 on the computer, and nothing else.
Whereas I could not get PE8 to work at all on my main laptop, this second computer is working better. I think the main differences might be that 1) it is not on a network and 2) there is no anti-virus software on it. I don't want to draw unjustified conclusions but based on what I've read on this forum and my own experience, this might be what's making the difference.

Hi Steve
I am a web designer who uses PE8 in my work and I find the easiest, most flexible way to produce these kind of one-off effects to suit exact requirements of size, font, colour etc is to use Adobe Flash and export to .avi format. You can then simply add the avi footage to your project in the usual way. I've recently contributed such animations to a French pop video and a wedding videography site. If exact specifications need to be met, Flash is a very good alternative. If you need any help, just let me know. Cheers, Paul (UK)

    You can't.  It's not a user controllable feature.

    In Firefox 29 and Firefox 30:

    In the lower left, click the Title Bar button to switch the title on and off.
    In Firefox 28, I actually can't remember!

  • How can I add a custom title to multiple ALV reports selected by layout?

    Greetings and good day, everyone!
    Within the past week or so, I posted a question asking the best way to create a program that would generate multiple ALV reports.  I got some great ideas, and I've actually coded up a few simple demos based on your feedback -- thank you!
    Here's the issue I'm running into:  Many of you suggested that I put all report records into one table, and create a field that I could use to filter on later to determine which fields I want to display for the report.  For example, if I have 3 different reports, I put all the fields for all 3 reports into a table.  I then add a "report key" field.  As I put records into the report table for report 1, I code "01" into the "report key" field.  I do the same for reports 2 and 3, assigning each a "report key" of "02" and "03", respectively.
    I then set up layouts in the ALV for each of the three reports, using the filter option to only pull records with the "report key" value for that particular report.  This all works wonderfully!  However, I seem to have lost the ability to show a custom title for each layout.  I can create a generic TITLEBAR (like "Reporting Center") but I don't know how to reset the grid's title when a layout is selected.  I was hoping that SAP might use the layout description as the title on each page, but it doesn't -- it uses the TITLEBAR text.
    Any ideas?  I think this might be the best way to program multiple ALV reports, but if I can't display the right report title for a particular layout, I'll probably have to go back to my other alternative of putting each report in its own container/screen, and having a button to access each report from the application toolbar.
    Thanks,

    Srikanth,
    I don't have any Selection Screen radio buttons for the user to select a particular report; in my case, they specify some needed criteria by the program in the Selection Screen, the program goes off and does a fair bit of processing/updating, and then displays the ALV reports when finished.  They don't want to choose one particular report to view ahead of time; they want to have all 3 (in my case) there to see what processed correctly, what was eligible to process but kicked out with errors, and what failed some matching checks done up front (this layout includes additional fields from the input file so they can see what didn't match up against R/3).
    So, while I do like the code example you presented, I don't think it's going to help me in my case.

  • How can I see the entire "title" of a page (now truncated)?

    I see that Firefox is now truncating the "title" of web pages. I cannot see any good reason for this because the space to the right of the title is blank. I think it was done in the "do anything to make changes to Firefox" department but in this case it is not an improvement and provides the user with less information.
    How can I fix the browser so I can again see the entire "title" as provided by the web page designer? I don't want to take extra steps (if any) to see it. I want it to display automatically each time.

    That is on the tab. A tab has a maximum width because otherwise a long title would cover the full tab width.
    You can make the Windows title bar visible again in the open the customize window via the 3-bar Firefox menu button (Customize is at the bottom left).<br />
    There you will find the choice to have the title bar visible.

  • How can I front-load page titles?

    We have a public-facing SP 2010 website implementation and a recent Accessibility test suggested that we should front-load page titles, so screen reader users know the page they are on without skipping navigation.
    Does anyone know how can this be done, as the elements in the website header (logo, search, main navigation) load first from Master Page?
    Thank you,

    Hi,
    Thanks for this but I am not sure that it solves my problem. 
    I am interested in how to load the Page title in the HTML on top of everything else on the page. Normally, page title is part of the page itself - wrapped in a <h1> tag.
    I would like to have this just after the <body> tag in HTML - the I will position on the page with CSS in the correct position.
    Thank you,
    Sandi

  • How can I change a Documents Title

    Hi
    I have created a Document using sAIDocument->New().
    Later I would like to change the title of the document, which I originally passed in on the AINewDocumentPreset.docTitle.
    Can anyone suggest how I can do this programatically, or do you have to remove the document and start again?
    Thanks
    Amy

    You can't even change the name in the regular Illustrator UI (short of saving it as something else of course!). The name isn't really a name per se, its just the default it'll use the first time you save the document. After that, its name is whatever it was saved as. So there's really no such thing as a 'document name' in Illustrator.

  • How can i make higher resolution titles?

    i am working on a dvd that will be nationally produced through churches all over america and most likely the world and everything is going great (now that i bought more RAM...) but i am using just very basic titles for the dvd but they look so pixelated and low res. i am working with FCE 1.1 and i am using the TEXT from the video generators, does anyone know how i can make higher res texts that don't look so stinkin pixelated? thanks so much

    The general rules are - use a sans-serif font (for example, Arial) and make it as large as you can, subject to the limits of your aesthetic tolerance. Small fonts & serif fonts do not work well in video.
    I don't know if FCE 1.1 included Title 3D, but that generator includes a 1:2:1 Deflicker control that may be helpful. If not, you could try adding the Flicker Filter to your text clip.
    Another suggestion (and I'm assuming you have still text, not moving text) would be to duplicate the text clip and stack it on top of the original text clip, on a higher video track. Then open the original text clip and apply the Gaussian Blur filter or Anti-Alias filter. This will help soften the pixellated edges of the text.
    Which generator(s) are you using, what font & what size?

  • How can I import a downloaded title?

    I downloaded several titles from videoblocks.com and would like to know if I can download it to iMovie. Any ideas?

    You can easily import the titles by using File/Import Movie...
    But the problem will be getting Text into your Titles. There are not multiple layers in iMovie like there are in Final Cut Pro.
    The built-in iMovie Titles have text boxes. But I don't know how to add a title to an imported title. The workaround would be to figure out where you need the text, and create a .png slide in Photoshop, Acorn, or Pixelmator (or photo editor of your choice) that puts the text where you need it. Then drag this photo on top of your title as a Cutaway.
    In Final Cut Pro X with Motion, this is much more straightforward.

  • How can I get TV show titles to display properly in the video app

    Hi,
    I have an iPad (1) which I have updated to iOS5.
    I have noticed that in the Video app, TV shows that I have created from my own DVDs only show the season and not the show title, but have a leading comma before the season as though something is missing.
    As an example, say I have episodes of Angel Season 3 on my iPad.  The title bar at the top of the page only says " , Season 3" instead of "Angel, Season 3"
    This doesn't happen with iTunes purchased content which appears to display as expected.  However I've looked through all the tags and can't see anything I'm missing.
    Has anyone experienced the same?  Is there a solution - even if it involves new tags?  I previously got all my tags working really well across iTunes, iPad and Apple TV so this is a bit frustrating for me.
    Thanks,
    Calvin

  • How can I get back the title bar in Thunderbird 38?

    The title bar can be turned on and off in Firefox. In the current version of Thunderbird (31), the title bar is present by default and there is no option to turn it off. In the beta version (38), there is no title bar by default… but I can't believe that there's no way to get it back. So, where is this setting? I can't find it.

    I sure agree that the setting isn't easily discoverable, but that's too late for the 38.0 release given that string freezes went in effect already (the reason being that localizers have to translate all UI elements for their respective language).
    The respective [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=814571 bug report] has been up for more than two years, but thus far not much progress in terms of a solution acceptable by the developers. I don't know if the extension proposed in the last comment was ever developed and posted.
