How do I create a dashed line growing longer?

Hi all,
I want to create a dashed line that grows longer. I made two keyframes (at frame 1 and frame 15) with dashed lines of different lengths. Motion or Classic Tween just makes the small line move to the right and then turn into the long line immediately at frame 15.
Shape Tween gets me the closest (actually shows a line growing), however, it turns into a solid line in the intermediate steps.
My next idea is to create a mask that slowly reveals more of the line. Is that the best solution?
Thanks!

yes, use a tweened mask.  that's the easiest solution.

  • How can I create a horizontal line under a line of text?

    Hi,
    I have FM 12.0.3.424.
    Does anyone know how to create a horizontal line under heading text that is the width of the page?  Similar to creating a border but without the top and sides.
    Is it even possible?
    thank you in advance!

    Use the "Frame Below" attribute in the Advanced tab of the Paragraph Designer for your heading tag to use a named Reference Frame from your Reference page. If you're using the default templates for your documents, you could try the Single Line selection (or make your own).

  • How do I create a Vertical Line?

    Hello Forum,
    I created a vertical line between the navigation and main content.  I made the right side of the “side panel” visible to create the line.
    It works in IE, but if viewed in Firefox, there is a gap at the end of some of the pages. Is there a better way to place a vertical line there or is there a fix for Firefox?
    Here is a link to the site: http://siennastaffing.com/coastpi/services.html
    Thanks,
    Andrea

    Divs don't behave the same as table columns.  If you want to create the illusion of equal height columns with CSS, you will need to use a background image equal in width to your #container division and repeat-y.

    Rotate all about 30 degrees.

  • How do I turn a dashed line into separate paths?.

    I have made a dashed line by turning the path into a dashed line using the stroke panel. I now want to separate the dashed line into separate paths. But when I expand the line it asks to expand the fill and stroke. I don't want an outline and fill, I just want paths. Can anyone throw some light on this please.

    This processes the JPG files, and then assumes that the CAF files are in the flle structure you provided.
    Select files in the Image Folder:
    The Run Shell Script [pass input as arguments] is:
    for f in "$@"
    do
         caf="$f"
         caf=${caf/Images/Audio}
         caf=${caf%.*}.caf

  • How do I create a new line in a pdf document?

    Hello,
    What I am doing is taking a compilation of information from multiple tables, displaying it in a textarea, allowing a user to change the information that is present in the text area if they wish, and then allowing them to create a pdf file. I am able to do everything except that when the pdf file is created, there is no new like created when the pdf doc is created. I can display multiple lines by using:
    <textarea name="all_content" cols="100" rows="30"><?php
            echo $row_getAllCont['first_name'].' '.$row_getAllCont['last_name']."\n";
            echo $row_getAllCont['email'];
            ?></textarea>
    <?php $_POST['all_content'] = nl2br($_POST['all_content']); ?>
    Then create the pdf doc by using:
    $newpdf = pdf_new();
    pdf_open_file($newpdf, "");
    pdf_set_info($newpdf, "Creator", "Me");
    pdf_set_info($newpdf, "Author", "Me");
    pdf_set_info($newpdf, "Title", "Tryal");
    pdf_set_info($newpdf, "Subject", "tryal");
    pdf_begin_page($newpdf, 595, 842);
    $newfont = pdf_findfont($newpdf, "Times-Roman", "host", 0);
    pdf_setfont($newpdf, $newfont, 10);
    pdf_show_xy($newpdf, $_POST['all_content'], 50, 750);
    pdf_end_page($newpdf);
    pdf_close($newpdf);
    $newbuf = pdf_get_buffer($newpdf);
    $newlen = strlen($newbuf);
    header("Content-type: application/pdf");
    header("Content-Length: $newlen");
    header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename=gen06.pdf");
    print $newbuf;
    pdf_delete($newpdf);
    ?>
    The problem is, when I want to display the first name and last name, and then email in the pdf, I want the email to display on another line only if email isn't set to NULL. I can get it to display in a webpage using the nl2br function but that doesn't work in pdf. Any ideas how to make this work?
    Thanks,
    Kelsey

  • How do I create a white line border for my video

    So I've got standard HD source video with 16:9 aspect ratio (1920 x 1080 pixels) and I've made it "wide screen" by putting black slugs as bands at the top and bottom of the screen. I would now like to place a white line border at the top and bottom of the visible video. How do I do this in FCP? Is there a "draw" like function within FCP similar to those in Microsoft Word or Powerpoint, so that I can draw a line and then define it's colour and width?
    Thanks very much.

    Hi Michael,
    if you need to do this often a plugin may also help you to quickly and easily create, reposition and change the width and color of one or more lines. One of these plugins is a free one of mine (actually I have two line genertors available for you).
    You can find them using the link below, they are  "line generators" indeed:
    http://www.lucavisualfx.com/freebies.htm
    Hope you find them useful, if you need me to increase/decrease certain control values (in the actual script/code) let me know and I'll make necessary adjustments for you.

  • How do I create a signature line?

    Just loaded acrobat standard on my tablet pc and I'd like to add a field that allows my customers to sign a form with a stylus. I DO NOT want to create a digital signature, just a field where the client signs the field and the the signature is entered into the form.
    I'm sure this is easy, but since I'm new to creating forms in pdf, it's not obvious to me.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    It's not as simple as it might at first seem. What your are going to use for this will be one of the comment tools, specificvally the Pencil tool. The area for the signature can be a simple line you add in the original document. However, if you are going to allow people to "sign" the document with a tablet, you will have to teach them to select the pencli tool and use it. Plus, you will need to Enable the from so that Reader users can access the tools (Advanced: Extend Features in Adobe Reader).

  • How do I create a "command-line-interface" for a game?

    Hey people,
    For a game I need to make a DOS-like command-line-interface where the user has at least 3 options to answer with, does anyone know how to go about this?
    Hope someone here can help me out!
    Kind regards,
    Angela

    I'm not sure what part of this you are having difficulty with. Imagine for a moment that instead of asking for your end user to type something into a text-entry field and to monitor what they type (perhaps when the ENTER key is pressed), that instead you provide 3 buttons on your stage. Responding to a button press in this scenario is much the same as responding to typed user input - your movie does something based on user interaction. Going back to the user entered text scenario, a text or field sprite can detect the ENTER key being pressed and examine the string the user has entered, something like:
    on keyDown me
      if _key.keyCode = 36 then
        stopEvent
        sText = sprite(me.spriteNum).member.text
        case sText of
          "hack": -- do whatever you need to here
          "research":
          "wait":
          otherwise:
        end case
      else
        pass
      end if
    end

  • How do I create a multi-line text box?

    I have a PDF that was tradionally printed and filled out by hand, and am trying to convert to an e-version.
    Everything is working great but I can't figure out how to make this one thing work. For example I have a section like this:
    More Info: _______________
    How can I make it so when one starts typing in the "More Info" section, their response continues from the 1st line to the 2nd, to the 3rd, etc.?

    You can set a text field to be multi-line and tick off the option to scroll
    long text to have it automatically wrap, but you'll have a problem with the
    first partial line, since form fields can only be rectangular. Another
    problem might be the lines themselves, since you'll have to use a font size
    that will fit them exactly, or it will look odd. I would suggest getting
    rid of those lines altogether. They are not needed when filling in the form
    electronically. It's a relic from printed out forms where people had to
    hand-write their answers.
