How do I reduce the size of all elements in a Motion project proportionately and simultaneously?

I have created a complex Motion project with many elements.  Does anyone know how to reduce the size of all elements proportionately and simultaneously in order to shrink this down to a corner logo? Thanks

Sure.
In the Layers pane,  IF all of your layers are already in a single Group (if you're really a beginner, then you probably just have the one group), all you need to do is select the Group "layer" containing your design elements and clone it (type - k) -- you'll get a new layer in a new group if it's a top level group of the project called Clone Layer.  (If you have more than one group, select all of them --- however, if there is an FCPX Placeholder-drop-zone-looking-layer with a label like Effect Source or Title Background, don't select that -- you'll need to command-click select just the layers that make up your logo design). [You can alternately select *everything* and command click the layers you do not want to include in the Clone.]
Creating a clone of anything in no way changes that object or objects.  A clone is like a composite viewer for objects/layers -- like a tv screen is to broadcast signals...
Uncheck the Cloned Group (or selected objects - if still selected, unchecking one will uncheck all of the selected layers) to inactivate it (this will not affect the clone visibility.) 
Select the Clone Layer.
Use the Properties > Transform tools to scale and position the clone layer (changing the blend mode to something like hard light, overlay or similar, and adjusting the opacity makes for a nice "watermark" [corner logo]).
HTH (hope it's clear enough!)

  • I have tried to use File - Export to reduce the size of my pics to send via email and all I get is a blank pic.  How do I reduce the size of the photo and still have the photo?

    I have tried to use File > Export to a folder on my Desk top to reduce the size of my photos and all I get is a blank, grey screen.  How do I reduce the size of my pics so I can email them?

    Where are you getting this screen?  In iPhoto after selecting the File ➙ Export menu option? If that's the case try this:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/() Library/Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences..
    You can resize photos outside of iPhoto with 3rd party applications like Resize!.
    Click to view full size
    With it you can change both the pixel size and file size of the photo to the size that suits your needs.  For other such apps go to MacUpDate.com and search for "image resize" to get a list of potential candidates.

  • How do I reduce the size of an AI CS6 file when saving as a pdf?

    I'm trying to save an ai file to a PDF to send to the printer but the file is huge. How can I reduce the size without losing quality? I have already rasterized my images and flattened the artwork. Thanks!

    How huge is huge?  Are all of the images Placed at 100% or have they been scaled?  What are the printer's requirements?  What are the physical dimensions of the file?  And, how are you creating the PDF?  There are a few ways to minimize size, starting with the file itself and the printer's requirements.  I find, sometimes, Exporting > TIFF > Open in Ps > Save As Photoshop PDF is helpful.  I also use Distiller which trims files nicely and is customizable.

  • How can I reduce the size of a pdf file for emailing?

    I want to send a pdf file which is 8 mb, it has bounced in an email because it is too big, how can I reduce the size of the pdf file for emailing?

    Sometimes a simple "Save As" will reduce the file size slightly, but probably not enough to pass the <8 mb threshold of your recipient, as you need.
    You've probably seen it, try the next option in the Save As menu, "Reduced Size PDF," and make it compatible with the latest version possible, again considering the recipient. This suggestion assumes Acrobat X. You don't say which version you're using, but this tool was available at least going back to Version 8, but in a different place, you'll have to hunt.
    If all that doesn't work, you could remove some images from the source document, which also will reduce the overall size.
    Best luck.

  • HT201077 The photos I have transferred to my PC via Photo Stream are too large for me to share with friends.  How do I reduce the size and how do I share them with friends and family only?

    I have the latest iPad update on my Ipad 3 as of September 23, 2012. 
    I havejust  taken a series of photographs with my iPad that I would like to share with family and specific friends ONLY.  I have set up the photos I want to share in Photo Stream.  I have synced them to my PC via iCloud.  Everything is fine except, the pictures are far too large to share ... and I don't know what exactly I am supposed to do in order to give my family access to these Photo Stream pictures.
    How do I reduce the size of photo stream pictures once they are on my PC via iCloud?
    What exactly do I do to give access to the photos on Photo Stream to specific people?
    How can I share the videos I have taken with my iPad?
    Many thanks for your attention.  I look forward to your reply.

    Select your photo/s.
    File menu > Export..
    Kind: JPEG
    JPEG Quality: Maximum
    Include: [√] Title and keywords
                [√] Location information
    Size: Full Size
    File Name: Use filename
    Select one of the photos and open in with Preview.
    Tools menu > Show Inspector
    Under the second button choose IPTC and it is all there.
    Sorry for all the confusion.

    How can I reduce the size of these files?
    Can i not use this files and see the tabscripts or others object htmlb?
    thanks

    Hi Benito,
    these files contain all "stuff" that the BSP Extensions need to work. If you decide to code your own HTML content you don't need them.
    The other thing to consider is that these files should really be cached b your browser so this overhead only happens once.
    Cheers

  • How can i reduce the size of Images  in MIDlet

    Hi all,
    How can i reduce the size of Images in Form,bcoz they are covering lots of spaces in form due to that other items are not displaying in specific order.

    Better you can use Canvas class and using drawImage() function you can show the image. Before that you have to Get the maximum size of your phone screen using the following:
    x = (width/2) - (image.getWidth()/2);
    y = (height/2) - (image.getHeight()/2);

  • How can I reduce the size of IPhoto ?

    I have tested IPhoto with a few hundred pictures.
    I do not find this software very user-friendly, in particular because I can no longer locate the files of these pictures. I kept fortunately a copy of my complete set of my photo collection.
    I removed all pictures from IPhoto, but the application shows a size of 600 Mb.
    How can I reduce the size of IPhoto and recover this storage space?

    patrick
    in particular because I can no longer locate the files of these pictures.
    There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
    1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    Rolls in the iPhoto Window (View -> Film Rolls) correspond exactly with the Roll Folders in the Originals Folder in the iPhoto Library Folder. You can move photos between Rolls, you can rename rolls, edit them, create them, as long as you do it via the iPhoto Window. Check out the Info Pane (wee 'i', lower left) the name and date fields are editable. Edit a Roll Name using the Info Pane, the Roll Folder in iPhoto Library Folder/Originals will also have the new name.

    Use the Get Info window to remove unwanted language resources.

  • How can I reduce the size of the jvm?

    I would like to decrease the size of a jvm; I've found a program that makes it, but you don't know how does it works (and you have to pay for it), I'm talking about VM Optimizer 2.0, from Invirtus.
    Can anyone tell me how can I reduce the size of the jvm?
    Thanks a lot.

    I assume you mean the size of a JVM instance in memory and not the size of the JRE which is on the disk.
    I don't believe that there is any way at present for your Java code to change the amount of memory available to the JVM. This shouldn't matter too much, though. Firstly, you can control the size of the JVM from the command prompt with the -Xms and -Xmx options. Secondly, any remotely reasonable operating system is going to wait until the JVM has requested memory before allocating all of it. If you start a JVM with a 2Gb heap, it does not occupy 2Gb of physical memory straight away.
    Finally, I did a Google on InVirtus VM Optimizer and must request some information. What does that software have to do with Java? It's designed to reduce the size of a virtual computer as created by a prorgam such as VMWare. It has nothing to do with the Java virtual machine.

  • How can I reduce the size of some apps like Facebook, Twitter,whatsup..etc..as they eat a lot of space on my iPhone 4s ?

    How can I reduce the size of some of the key apps likeTwitt Facebook, whatsup etc..I have a iphone 4s 7 GB?

    Its frustrating. I also have this problem with Dropbox, a great service but they dont have a 'delete cache' button. Dropbox told me to log out and back in again but nothing. If i delete the Dropbox app (And Facebook app and Twitter) and then re-install its back to its original size
    If you go into settings/general/usage and see all the apps, press the app for Twitter (Or Facebook) and you'll see how much extra the app is keeping under 'Documents & Data'
    Delete those apps and re-install and the documents and data will be 0 and the app back to normal.
    Its frustrating as some of these apps can get huge, after viewing a video my facebook app went up to 450 meg ! Same for twitter. I tend to use 'Twiterrific' as the app size doesnt get silly unlike the official Twitter app

  • How do I reduce the size of photos to use on website?

    Thanks to the helpful person who recommended I use Rapidweaver to build a website, I am slowly getting somewhere. It is so simple and just like Apple applications that I think I can do this.
    My problem now is that when I tried to transfer a photo from iPhoto to the draft website page it comes across so large it fills the page.
    How do I reduce the size of photos so that I can bring them across? I need to show about 20 photos on the web pages. Do they need to be in a different format and if so how do I change it to the appropriate one?
    Many thanks.

    Hi Casuarina,
    Go to this site and click on the Desktop Version Quicktime movie for a small tutorial. It will explain everything to you and you can see how you resize right within Rapid Weaver. It's really quite nifty.

  • How do I reduce the size of a graphic in Preview and maintain resolution?

    Preview 6.0.1
    Hi,
    I have a graphic in Preview. The largest file is a .jpg at 77 KB. Information about the graphic is in the attached "Adjust Size ScreenPreview Galleon 77.
    I find that when I reduce the size of the file using Previews menu bar functions that I usually use — Screenshot>Zoom reduce>Select the smaller picture>Screenshot — that the result is an image that has lost the focus, the resolution of the original graphic.
    How do I reduce the size of a graphic and maintain resolution? I've never used the Adjust Size Screen functions.
    I'm not stuck on having to use Preview to accomplish this, but I do use Preview a lot.
    Thanks,

    Choose a smaller width, the height will adjust appropriately, and the resolution will stay the same.

    What format are they? Tiif? Jpeg? You can compress them with a lot of apps - including Preivew and just about any graphics editor out there. I'm not sure that 45mb would crash iPhoto thogh, are yo sure that's the cause? I know that some folks have mentioned pixel dimensions causing issues, as can color profiles.

    How do I reduce the size of photo in iPhoto?  The size of my imported photos from my camera are 2 - 3 MB and for my purpose I need 200 - 400 KB.   Scanned copies of older photographs with a size of 100 to 500 KB work very well.  Any help is greatly appreciated. 

    File -> Export and make your choices in the Export dialogue.
    Jpeg Quality and Size will have most effect on file size. Note that 'Size' refers to the pixel dimensions of the photo.
