  • How do you insert a picture into another picture?

    How do you insert a picture into another picture.  For example, one person is missing from family photo & I'd like to insert that person's face.

    By using an external editor:
    In order of price here are some suggestions:
    Seashore (free)
    The Gimp (free)
    Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
    Acorn ($50 approx)
    Pixelmator ($50 approx)
    Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
    There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate. You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • How do I insert a picture into iMovie regardless of aspect ratio

    When I insert a picture, i either have the choice of cropping the picture or having black bars on the sides. How can I insert a picture into imovie and not be dictated based on the aspect ratio. thanks

    nope, never.
    look:
    example #1: a 1:1 pic in a 16:9 screen
    option A bars l/r
    option B cat-off
    example #2: a wiiiide screen pic in a 16:9 screen
    option A bars t/b
    option B catcut off
    and you don't want kitty look like that:
    (1:1 aspect ratio distorted to make fit onto a 16:9 screen)

  • How do you insert an image into a google map using a macbook?

    I am trying to put images into a Google map using my MacBook, but cannot seem to find any help. How do I insert an image into my Google map using my MacBook?

    Nothing complicated with your menu - very clear "ADD Image" but my menus are not as simple. Everytime I need to add an image I spend 5-10 minutes searching again. Wonder why so hard. I generally find Acrobat menus cryptic and unclear and I am big Adobe fan - use Illustrator, Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Premier, Fireworks etc - but Acrobat menus are like calculus in the dark.

  • How do i insert a picture into a table cell

    hi
    i am trying to insert a photo into a table cell in Pages of iPad.
    how do i do that?
    thanks

    I have this question too. It is very important for me to insert pictures into tables in order to complete my lab reports. This feature needs to be added; the software is useless without it. It is things like this that make me regret Apple purchases.

  • How can I insert a picture into a AbsoluteLayout ?

    Hi everybody.
    I am using a null layout and I don't know how to insert a picture.
    public static void addComponentsToPane(Container pane) {
            pane.setLayout(null);
           JButton b1 = new JButton("one");
           /* ... the rest of the elements...*/
          pane.add(b1);
         Insets insets = pane.getInsets();
         Dimension size;
         size = b1.getPreferredSize();
            b1.setBounds(250 + insets.left, 40 + insets.top,
                         size.width , size.height);
       /* and the rest of the program with createandshowgui and main */Can I do with a picture the same thing that I did with this button (setBounds etc?)
    If yes, how can I do that?

    Thanks for the answer but why you say no to use null layout?what is the disadvantage?The disadvantages are having an app that is completely inflexible and does not adapt well to different operating systems and desktops. Please read the Sun tutorial on using layout managers.
    And I tried using a JLabel and then make a new ImageIcon(the target of the picture) but I have an error when I add it to the pane with pane.add(picture); where the picture is the JFrame of the photo and pane is the name of the container.because you're doing this all wrong. You shouldn't add a JFrame to a container. Have you looked at the JLabel tutorial in the Sun tutorials as was suggested above?
    Can you write me the exact commands that I should use?No, but we all can guide you to do what you want to do, but first we need to know exactly what this is. So, what exactly are you trying to do here? Details are very important.
    Thank you very much.You're welcome.

  • How do you insert new records into multiple tables using the same unique primary key?

    I’ve created a PHP site and MySQL server using a free app called XAMPP.  I have successfully created a form in Dreamweaver that will write data to a (name) table in the SQL database.  Here’s my question: How do you write to two (or more) tables in the same database and pass the same primary key to both tables?  In the SQL database, I defined the first field as ID and set it as the primary key with auto update.  So, when you insert a new record, it creates a unique primary key for that record.  In my form, I’m capturing info that needs to be stored to two tables at the same time; a Name table and Address table. Since the Name and Address tables use the ID field as the primary key, I believe I will need to pass the ID value from the Name table to the insert of the Address table to insure they both have the same primary key, right?

    No. You probably need the primary key from one table to be a foreign key in the other tables. In any case, I believe you can use two methods to obtain the auto generated key. First with SQL:
    http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/getting-unique-id.html
    And the other using a PHP function:

  • How can I insert multiple pictures into a "diary" document?

    We started traveling in an RV.  I'm keeping several journals but want to put everything into one document.  I'd like to either insert a slide show at each location I write about, or just insert a number of pictures easily!  the first time I selected about 8 pictures and they just laid over each other.  I couldn't figure out if text in front, around, and they all come in the same size, too big.  I'm looking for an easy fix as I have 22 events to write up and insert pictures in.
    Are pages the best way to go? 

    Hi billdeb411,
    Pages is certainly one way to go for creating documents such as you describe. You might want to look at this page for a better idea of its capabilities -
    Apple - Pages for Mac
    http://www.apple.com/mac/pages/
    Another possibility, particularly if you are trying to create a physical book as your end product, would be to use iPhoto. See its product page here -
    Apple - iPhoto for Mac
    http://www.apple.com/mac/iphoto/
    With it you can create a photo book with your computer and have Apple print the book out for you

  • How can you insert foreign letters into pages in Maverick? The old option of holding down the key has disappeared.

    After downloading Mavericks on the MacBook Air, the ability to hold down a key and insert a foreign language symbol or letter disappeared. How can foreign language alphabet symbols/letters be inserted into Pages?

    Are you still using the US keyboard layout?
    Pending a solution to restore the Character Picker, you can use the traditional option key shortcuts for many characters, e.g. option + e, then e produces é.
    Plus you can use Edit > Special Characters to bring up the Character Viewer.

  • How do you insert postal barcodes into a "pages" created newsletter?

    our church has created a newsletter using the pages application.  We have figured out the mail cerge with exception of getting the barcode into it.  Any ideas on how to accomplish this?

    I don't have Pages, but apparently it still does not support postal barcodes. Several people use this
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/19130/easyenvelopes
    It doesn't integrate with Pages meaning you will have to print your envelopes in AddressBook. If that is what you used to merge from you already have the addresses but a pain I know.

  • Insert  a  Picture Into a Panel....

    How can i insert a picture into a JPanel.
    Actually I want to show the picture only to the left hand side of the
    JFrame.
    Kindly help me.
    Thanx

    I would suggest to use a JLabel instead of JPanel.
    And then go ahead like described in the other tips.
    The JLabel can then be placed whereever you want inside your frame.
    Btw. if you just need something like a dialog - with a label to the left side, few buttons and some objects inside - I recommend to read the tutorials for JOptionPane - it is much easier to use this class instead of doing all the code on your own.

  • How do you insert special characters with imovie 08?

    How do you insert special characters into a project
    with imovie 08?

    Don't think that would work. Since my "system date" is already set at 2007. I have 2 imports, one has the year as 2048, and the other at 2016!! I don't know where they are getting these dates from, but they are not the system date.
    Were the files imported directly from a camcorder or from files already on your hard drive? In the first case the year may have been taken from the time "stamp" recorded when the footage was shot (which may or may not have been correctly set by the user). On the other hand, files imported from the hard drive seem to be keyed to the date the imported file is written to the "Events" folder which, of course, reflects the current system time/date setting. That's why I said you had to then import (re-import) the files from a hard drive source -- i.e., to ensure the DTG would be re-written.
