How to adjust the timing of any effect in After Effects?

I want to make a building shatter at a specific time in my video (using the shatter plugin). However, when I add the effect, it doesn't seem to give me any options on adjusting the timing. I think it has something to do with a stopwatch, but I don't know how to use the stopwatch thng.
PLEASE HELP!
Thanks

If you type "shatter" in the Search Help field at the top right corner of AE the first link takes you to the After Effects / Simulation effects help page. If you click on Shatter effect (the sixth link in the list) It will take you to the specific instructions for the Shatter effect where the force and radius are explained in the first paragraph. There are also links to a bunch of tutorials and other resources for the effect. Farther down you will find a more detailed description of the Force 1 and Force 2 controls including the quote that Todd gave above.
I'm not doubting that you gave a look before answering, but far too many folks expect that everything in AE has a simple click and solve solution. The more you read, the more you use the help tools and the community resources, the more you'll learn how things work and the better and faster you will become at your craft. I actually spend about 2 hours a week just reading over things in the help files that I haven't looked at for a while, just to keep up. I also use the Search Help field in AE all the time to check out other possible techniques used by others in the AE community. If you get in that habit then you will become a better artist in less time. Relying on user forums for a click and solve solution won't do much to help you learn how AE works.

I've tried downloading iOS5 several times and after an hour each time I get a message that says my network connection has timed out. But I can't find any information about "timing out" or how to correct the situation. Any help?

Disable your antivirus and firewall, and try again.

Since you did not mention which app you are using for animation, the only thing I can suggest is to check the apps Preferences. That is usually the place to make changes.

There is a problem with autoHeightRows and columnStretching used together in 11gR1.
Have you tried without columnStretching?
Or have you tried if it works in 11gr2?
TimoHi Timo, Thank you very much for taking time to respond to my question.. :)
Back to my question...
I tried removing the columnStretching although my requirement really requires this but no effect really happens even if I remove this.
Based on my investigation on the generated HTML, I notice the following items:
1. A table is being wrapped in a div that is being set at a fixed height.
2. On first load, if your autoheight rows is set to 6, the framework is setting a height of 96px to the div. This height would almost cut the last row of the table.
3. If you try to refresh the page or try to re-PPR the component, the framework resets it to 102px which causes the last row to be fully displayed.
My only concern is that IE is perfectly displaying this while Chrome and FF are having problem.
Based on my understanding, the framework is messing up the height only on first load. Not sure but this is how I see it. I am really not confident also on my findings
and I would most likely hear other's comment.
Thanks.

How to adjust the height of the tracks in timeline mode

I am trying to find my way around PE 10, have had the program for years but not used it. (I am using Win 7 on a 15" laptop, screen resolution is 1920x1080, 16 GB Ram, 4GB video RAM.) I took some video on vacation, in some clips there is a lot of wind noise. I know how to adjust the volume using key frames, but the tracks are only about ¼" wide making adjustment just about impossible. Full volume to zero is just a small fraction of an inch. I can zoom in on the track, but this doesn't make the track wider. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks,
David

Actually, I wanted to do this in a static table.
Just now, I learnt that this feature is not available in 12.0 as well as in other previous versions.
However, this will be implemented in Release 12.1.
Thanks,

How to adjust the score of multiple-SCO scorm package?

I used Captivate 4 and created 2 SCOs. I then used SCORM Packager to package the 2 SCOs into 1 SCORM package. Everything works well. I can upload the SCORM into LMS without problem.
My 1st SCO is pure information without quiz. The 2nd SCO is pure quiz. While LMS shows all interactions properly, it always gives "0" score for the 1st SCO, and report average score of the 2 SCOs as the final score. But I want LMS to report the result for the 2nd SCO only.
For the 1st SCO, I tried to set "slide view only" instead of "quiz result only" in the quiz setting, but it doesn't help.
Anyone encountered the same problem and know a solution? If there are multiple SCOs, some without quiz, some with quiz, how to adjust the setting so that LMS only report and average the score for SCOs with quizzes?

I dont' think I will be much help, as I too am getting into the whole SCO/SCORM world (shakes head in frustration)
However, I believe it's not considered a SCO unless it reports a score of somesort. The way I have read to get around something like this is to create the last button on your first SCO that the user clicks to enable reporting on that button, so that it reports to the LMS - and basically when the user clicks the button it sends a "success" to the LMS and records the score/points you put in.
Now does this help you? probably not, but it may point you in the right direction. If you could do me a favor though, it seems you were able to successfully put your SCORM package up to an LMS succesfully, I have just posted in this thread that I'm having an issue with doing just that. Let mek now if you could provide any insight into my problem.
Thank you.

How to adjust the number of blog entries on the archive page?

Does anyone know how to adjust the number of blog entries on the archive page?
As it stands now the blog archive page lists the archives past the 4000px page length in what appears to be a long endless list.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Thanks Wyodor but that just adjusts the entries on the blog page....not the blog archive page.
On the blog archive page it's just a long endless list of entries. It appears that you simply cannot adjust this on the archive page. Additionally if the blog entries exceed 50 I have to start deleting older entries.
Overall iWeb has served my needs well but this issue *****. They could probably fix it with a software update if they wanted to.

How to adjust the volume of the tone you hear when dial a number

Any idea how to adjust the volume of the tone you hear when you dial phone numbers?
Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

There are no sounds except on the handset earpiece for the dialer buttons when you dial a number; is this what you are speaking of? All sound settings are found under Prefs, Sounds & Alerts, then choose Ring Tones, Phone Alerts, Calendar, Messaging, System, then choose the settings you desire.

How to adjust the path of a tween using actionscript

I'm a novice at Actionscript3 and would greatly appreciate an answer to what seems like a simple question:
Here's my project:
http://home.comcast.net/~samiri/director/mortals/amadoFlashPortrait/index.htm
Click on the gray scale frame images. A larger version of that image tweens out along the z axis. However it comes from 'somewhere else' not from 'within the frame.' How do I get the each larger gray scale frame image to look like it comes directly from the place where the user clicks (not to one side or the other)?
So I guess what I'm asking is how to adjust the path of the tween along the x and y axis using the actionscript code (below).
My method:
I'm using this line of code in my script:
var myTween:Tween = new Tween(mdImg, "z", Strong.easeOut, 300, 0, 1, true);
"mdImg" is the variable that holds the name of the hotspot clicked upon by the user.
I have the larger (faded edge) image positioned directly on top of the frame image and just kept invisible until the User clicks on the hotspot over the frame image.
Thanks much.

Thanks moccamaximum,
By "do your tweens manually" you mean to use the timeline to do frame-based tweening? That is an option but I'm wondering (as a newbie): Isn't it better to use actionscript to do animation since you have more control and it's time based rather than frame-rate based (and works better on low performance machines)? Just curious if I should be spending the time to learn actionscript or do it in the traditional way.
Thanks

How to adjust the font size of iPad printout of web pages ?

In HTML Header I put textDid you mean Page Header Text? It wouldn't have done much of anything at all in the HTML Header...
However, the font doesn't do anything.Yet another universal selector problem: see +{message:id=4184109}+
How do I overwrite the style sheet? I am wondering if I change the default style sheet, does that also affect the other pages, which is not what I want. In that case you can just include the CSS inline, which will also get round the universal selector issue. You are also recommended to use a semantic HTML element instead of deprecated presentational elements like <center> and <font>. Assuming this text is the primary heading on the page, use <h1>:
<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#my_header_logo_white.jpg" alt="" title="Application" />
<h1 style="font-size: large; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;">Web Management System</h1>
