What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system?
Let us assume Premiere Elements 11, 12, or 13 on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit for the purpose of an example.
1. Select all the clip on the Timeline (all at one time) that are being targeted for same duration change.
2. Right click anywhere in the selection, select Time Stretch, and, then in the Time Stretch dialog, change the duration 00;00;0O;00. (hours; minutes; seconds; frames).
Do you have one of those versions that I mentioned, making sure to select all the involved clips ahead of time before going
after Time Stretch?
Selections
If you want all the clips on the Timeline, then Edit Menu/Select All
or
Hold down the Shift key of the computer main keyboard, and, with the mouse cursor, click on each of the clips to be involved in this duration change
or
With the mouse cursor, draw a rectangle around the clips to go into the selection in order to select them
Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

Changing the Duration of multiple clips/Gee I thought I knew how?!

Okay folks. I have a group of pictures on the timelime. I need to shorten the duration of all clips. I highlighted the clips, control+click on one of the clips--navigated to duration.
When I change the duration, the computer beeps and returns the time to the orginal clip length of 10:00. I can change an individual clip in this manner but not the whole timeline.
Any ideas?
Thanks for the help.

Never Mind. I had a sequence in my list of clips. Took it out and that solved the problem. Sorry.
Thanks anyway.

How to change the duration of multiple paint strokes

Hello everyone! Newbie here.
I should've set the paint properties to first frame instead of constant. Where properties of multiple clone stamps are easily modified at once, the duration shows as a percentage and so I can't figure out how to reset the duration to the first frame of the clone stamps.
I should've read the paint chapter of the After Effects manual before I made a mess but I haven't found my answer there.
I'll also appreciate any suggestions for scratches and noise removal filters.
Thank your for your help!

edit:
For items already in the timeline, Select the each item in the timeline, right click and select "change speed" from the popup menu. You can not change the duration of a group of slides, only one at a time.
To change images that are already imported but not in the timeline, there are two ways to go - the brute force method and the item by item method.
Brute Force: Delete the stills from the Browser, change the duration of still setting in User Preferences>Editing to what you want, then reimport the stills. They will come in with the new duration. Changing the User Preference setting only affects stills imported after the change, it has no effect on material already in the Browser.
Item By Item: Go to the still in the Browser and change the duration for it. Right click on the time and copy it. Select the next still image time, paste the new time in, rinse and repeat. If you have a lot of stills and they are well organized (ie all in the same folder), the brute force is probably faster.

Any way to change the duration of multiple clips in the timeline at once?

Title says it all
Thanks

Can you manually drag back and forth with the handles on the timeline? Appreciate it.

How can I change the duration for all clips in iMovie 10.2

How can I change the duration for all clips in iMovie 10.2? I'm used to working in the older version of iMovie where all I had to do was click on the gear on the clip and change the duration. ALso could use the tool bar to set the duration for all clips. Can't figure out how to do that in this new version. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

In the timeline select the clip whose duration you want to change. Click the adjust button at the top of the viewer and then click the i button and you can set the duration. For multiple clips select them all and in the i button type in the duration you want and it will be applied to all the selected clips. You can also change the duration of a clip in the timeline by putting the cursor over the beginning or end of a clip and dragging. A popup will show the new duration.

How to change the duration of a sequence of stills all at once

Hi.
I know how to change the duration of one still, but changing the duration of many seems elusive. I've gone to the Help menu and typed "Duration." That points me to the menu where I would change the duration of one still.
Thanks for your help!

How do you change the volume for multiple clips in one go?

Hi all,
Im having some trouble with audio. Im posting this in a rush so sorry in advance if its a bit muddled! Im editing snow reports with a journo piece to camera (track one lapel microphone) with overlay (track two nat sound ).
1. is there a way to only bring in track one only and track two only from the source monitor?
2. Is it possible to adjust the volume on multiple clips that are on the timeline (so that i can bring down the nat sound for all of the overlay track two)
At the moment im bringing them into the timeline and adjusting them individually. I tried lowering the volume on one clip and saving it as a preset but it wont let me.
your help is greatly appreciated
Paul

Duplicate the audio once editing is done. In the Mixer window, apply the Fill Left effect to one audio track, and the Fill Right effect to the other. Then adjust the mixer appropriately.

How to change the speed of a clip without frame blending?

Hi,
I changed the speed of a clip to 200%. I expected Premiere to drop every second frame. Instead, there is some frame blending making my progressive footage interlaced. For some reason, the frame blending cannot be disabled by using the Use Frame Blending option.
How can I make Premiere simply dropping every 2nd frame?
Thanks in advance!

In my test, all I need do was right click the clip and make sure Frame Blend was not checked.

Changing the duration of layer clip on timeline

Hi,
I am experimenting with placing layers on the timeline of photoshop. I would like to change the duration of the layers as they appear on the timeline. The tutorials indicate that that right clicking on the clip will bring up a context menu that allows you to change various aspects of the clip and associated audio (if any). Right clicking of the layer in the timeline does not invoke the context menu indicated in the tutorials, rather a motion context menu. Is there a way to change the duration of layers in the timeline other than adjusting the length by hand for each clip?
Thanks.

How to change the design of multiple-choice checkboxes

Hello,
i want to change the look of multiple-choice quizzes. Instead of the typical checkbox with checkmark i would like to place a button that changes its color - for example blue for right (activated) and white for wrong (not selected).
I think it should be possible, but I don't know where I can change the look of checkboxes. I Tried it with a hotspot-quiz, but that is not exactly what I'm searching for.
The best solution for me would be a kind of button with mouse-over effect as known from websites (HTML).
Can you please tell me what I have to edit?
Thank you very much.
Boris

Hello and thank you for posting this information. I'm still seeing a number of problems with implementing a workable solution.
For HTML5 only (not Flash), I have changed the image: HTML/assets/htmlimages/checkBox_selected.png to a blue button (118x53 pixels instead of the default 22x22pixels), and as expected the button will still be the same size until I change the code description of the checkbox. I found the CSS description of the checkbox button in: HTML/assets/css/CPQuiz.css and have made the changes to the width and height (see below), and even though the following changes are generated in the output files, they don't have any effect on the button. However, I found that if I changed the 'Project.js' file where it defines the width and height of the checkboxes that this would actually change the values, but this is always re-written over and generated each time you click 'Publish'.
So, I then found some hard-coding in the file: HTML/assets/js/CPLibrary.js (just search for 22px and you'll see that the checkbox description width and height are not being read from the CSS file) and this appears to be where the actual code is coming from that gets generated for output when you click on 'Publish'.
This is not an optimal solution, I feel that I'm beginning to hack around the default code for Adobe Captivate more than I should be expected to do. Is this really what others are doing to make what should be pretty simple and easy changes?
Additionally, I noticed that when I click on my checkbox, the 'checkBox_selected.png' will be drawn, but if I click on it again the 'checkBox_disabled.png' appears to be drawn on top of the previous 'checkBox_selected.png' which is not the behavior I would expect. I want to be able to see what is underneath the button if I click on it again in order to un-check the box and instead it draws the 'checkBox_disabled.png' on top, covering up the default text I need to see!
Below are my changes to CPQuiz.css (which were copied to the 'Published' file, but had no visible effect)
input[type=checkbox]:checked
    background: url('../htmlimages/checkBox_selected.png') no-repeat center center;
    -webkit-appearance: none;
    border: none;
    -webkit-background-size: 118px 53px;
.spanCheckBoxInput
    position: fixed;
    display: block;
    width:118px;
    height:53px;

How would I change the variables in multiple methods with the user input?

Here is my code for a tic tac toe game I have to do for an assignment, it is currently set at the normal 3 x 3, but the teacher what the user to be albe to change these to between 3-5 before they start playing, here is my codeing
import java.util.*;
public class TicTacToe
Constructs an empty board.
private String[][] board;
private static int ROWS = 3;
private static int COLUMNS = 3;
public TicTacToe()
int size = in.nextInt();
board = new String[ROWS][COLUMNS];
// Fill with spaces
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++)
for (int j = 0; j < size; j++)
board[i][j] = " ";
Sets a field in the board. The field must be unoccupied.
@param i the row index
@param j the column index
@param player the player ("x" or "o")
public void set(int i, int j, String player)
if (board[i][j].equals(" "))
board[i][j] = player;
Creates a string representation of the board, such as
|x o|
| x |
| o|
@return the string representation
public String toString()
String r = "";
for (int i = 0; i < ROWS; i++)
r = r + "|";
for (int j = 0; j < COLUMNS; j++)
r = r + board[i][j];
r = r + "|\n";
return r;
I am having a problem figuring out how to change the variables ROWS , COLUMNS to the given user input, it seems easy but i can't really figure out how to do it
thanks ahead of time

}sorry for not posting code correctyl new to this forums
Thanks for the help but let me rephrase my question, the rows and columns are the same like 3x3, 4x4 ,or 5x5,
-when the program runs it will ask the user for what they want to set the tic tac toe at between 3 - 5.
My question is how do I get the code
Scanner a = new Scanner ( System.in );
System.out.print("Enter the size of the tic tac toe box to be between 3-5 : ");
int sizeTicTacToe = a.next();to change the variables of ROWS COLUMNS
I just want to know of a way to make the users input of sizeTicTacToe to change the variables ROWS & COLUMNS in my toString() and TicTacToe() methods

How do I change the duration of all clips/ photos to under 00:00:03?

I am making a movie from images that were rendered with Maya, a 3D software.
When I import lets say 50 images , they all come in with a duration of 5 seconds each .
I figured out how to slow down their duration to 00:00:03
but I want them all to be 00:00:01, meaning, 1 frame per image, 30 images a second.
imovieHD only allowed me to reduce the photo to have a duration of 3 frames , no less!
How do I reduce the duration of all my photos to 1 frame or a 30th of a second?
Please help!

you posted in the iMHD section of this board.. which is vers. 5 (five).. you're using vers5 with 10.5. ?
in iMHD(5), project has to be DV or any other, but not iSight/mpeg4..
import one pic into timeline, uncheck KB, doubleclick the clip and set its duration to 00:00:00:01 .. following imports adopt these settings
in iM08/09 (I assume, that is your version...) 3 frames is shortest.
you need other apps to accomplish your task, QTpro, FramebyFrame, iStopmotion etc ..

How to change Opacity Blending on multiple clips...??

First the problem:
Whenever I open a Premiere v6.5 project, CS4 does a "conversion."
Maddeningly, during this process, it changes the Opacity\Blending Mode of every single clip in the project to "Color" instead of leaving it at "Normal."
Since I am working with Stereo (3D) footage with a different camera on V2 & V1, I always have at least two, and often many more, video tracks (for titles, etc).
This means I have to go through every single clip on every single video track and reset it to Normal before I can proceed with the project! This can be upwards of 500 clips.
PITA!!
1) Does anyone have any idea why this is happening & how to prevent it?
or,
2) Is there a way to change this setting in all the clips at the same time?
Whenever I select multiple clips, no Effect Settings (or whatever Shift 5 is called) appear. Only there for single clips.
TIA,:-)

Do one clip, copy (rightclick) the clip, select all the others and paste attributes.

How to change the motion of a clip

Windows 7 ultimate
AE CS 4
Footage 1080p 24fps
Gentlemen
A very simple question
How do I change the motion setting of a clip
I mean I have a clip of a girl dancing on a chess floor background
I made duplicates of the same clip ,I changed the outfit of each girl by using effects
Now I wanna change their standing positions , I wanna make it look like many girls are dancing on that chess background , since I am a Premiere user, all I have to do is go to selection track motion and I can put her up and down (dont take me wrong here) by changing the X, Y and few other numbers,
So, how do I move here up, don , left and right
Many thanks.

Mylenium's initial response is correct: select the layer, press P, and adjust the position parameters. As you have also descovered, you can manually change those values by moving the layer within the preview window as well.
These are fundamental basics for using After Effects. You will have much more success and satisfaction using AE if you spend an hour or two with the resources here:

Need Help Pasting Key Frames from one still image to others, and Changing the duration of multiple still images.

I'm working on a stop motion project, and I have at least a thousand still images to work with.
I have adjusted several Key Frame settings on the 1st still image in my project, such as
Brightness
Cropping
Scale
Position
I now want to apply these exact settings to hundreds of still images at a time that make up one scene in the project (but not all still images in the entire project).. Is there a way to paste or easily transfer them?
Also, there are scenes I'm working on in which I want to change the image duration of hundreds of photos at once, but not change to duration of all images in the project, is this possible?
I've looked at several different web-links, but none of them have what I'm looking for. If you can please help me, I'd be willing to send you $10 through paypal. Knowledge is power; the solution to these problems would save me hours of time. If you don't fully understand my questions I can send you a pictures or a video, pointing out my needs.

Stan,
Thanks again for your input.
When the project is created, I don't recall seeing the preference settings until after the project opens the first time. In that case if certain media was imported into the project panel but not in the sequence, after the duration was changed, it would be necessary to remove the media from the project panel then re-import again. If there is a workaround to this please let me know. It also doesn't appear that creating a new sequence would prevent the re-importing. Could you confirm?
Thanks for the link on automating to sequence--I remember that from CS4.
The application of identical effects to media on the timeline in a sequence was something I had learned back in CS3 or maybe earlier CS4 where the effected, in this case a transition between images was applied then copied then using the paste or (Control V) command, applied to all other stills. That worked fine but with lots of images, it ends up being a lot of "point and clicks" since the CTI must be moved to each transition insertion point before the paste is applied.
I actually thought that I had seen someone select the remainder of the images in the sequence then apply the paste command but I was never able to make that work. Have you heard of such a short-cut?
Much thanks again!!
