How to control the shatter effect in Aperture 3

I am using Aperture 3 on an iMac, but have trouble trying to control the shatter effect in slideshow, I would like to be able to slow this down in order to see the effect in slow motion
Can anybody help please?

Nope, it's a default. Some themes let you do it, not the Shatter theme.

How to Make the Shatter Effect Travel Outside the Original Comp

Hey guys,
So I'm trying to shatter a jpg image that I imported into After Effects 5.5, all is going well with the look, but I'm having a problem. The shatter has the pieces floating upward as intended, but the pieces are disappearing at the border of the image. It would appear the image itself bounds the effect so that pieces cannot float beyond into the remainder of the composition area.
Is there a way to make it so the pieces can float out beyond where the image is? Thanks in advace.

Is this the effect you're trying to achieve?
If so, it was created by scaling down a red solid and pre-comping it using the following settings.
Then go back to your original composition and apply your shatter effect to the pre-comp.

How to add motion blur to the shatter effect?

I am trying to add motion blur to the shatter effect, iv created my own custom shatter map with text that remains after the effect is complete, i have tried to add motion blur through the other blur effects and i have not found one that will do the motion blur correctly.
what im wanting is for there to be motion blur on the pieces that are shattering, any suggestions?

There are suggestions toward the bottom of this page, including a tip using the Timewarp effect. I found this by searching for 'motion blur'.

Initiating an explosion with the Shatter effect

Guys thanks again for all your help. Now I am trying to create an explosion with a shatter effect. Problem is when I apply the shatter effect to my Shape I created, it assumes I want the explosion to occur as soon as the video starts to play. Actually I would like the explosion to occur a little later in the video, maybe about 25 frames into the video. I can not find a setting to key frame the start of the explosion. Is there a key frame for this and I am not seeing it? I even tried moving the shape out in the timeline so it does not appear until about the 25 frame, but this does not work either.
Thanks again
Let me know

Like I said previously "Problem is when I apply the shatter effect to my Shape I created, it assumes I want the explosion to occur as soon as the video starts to play." This is not what I want. I need a key frame to initiate the explosion about 25 frames into the clip. The physics controls the location on the screen and the direction of the explosion, but to my knowledge it does not control the timing of the explosion. I have viewed Lynda tutorials repeatedly.
The tutorials make it look like it is possible to start an explosion later in the timeline but there is no explanation of how he did it. It looks like the explosion should occur when the "Shape" occurs in the time line, but After Effects is not working that way for me.

How to make a shatter effect in cinema 4D

Hi
I'm trying to use the shatter effect in Cinema4d but in the lite version available through AE the collision and simulation tags are not available. So how one can use it without the simulation and collide tags available?
Claude

Yes but how? I've a tutorial and in the process you have to use the simulation and collide tags which are not available unless there has been a problem while the installation of the program was done?
The whole problem is that I have to break a building and I tried as you suggested the other day with Shatter to use a gradient but I must have used it wrongly because it did not work. This morning I found on Creative Cow a way to stop the pieces falling by setting with a key frame the gravity to 0 and viscosity to 1 but the result is rather artificial as some of the pieces stop falling in mld air which is ridiculous. I tried then Cinema 4d following Sean Frangella tutorial and that's when I discovered that the essential commands were missing in the lite edition. I must say I find it a bit harsh to put a link to a software knowing that essentials commands will be absent.
I'm not petroleum magnate to spend the price of any of Maxon's offers for the full product. I'm an amateur trying to have a kind of original editing of his videos.

Controlling the "zoom" effect

Hey there again,
Is there a way to control the zoom effect in the AC3? I have a zoom effect and I need to adjust how far it goes, is this possible?
This is the code from the function:
var myTransition2Manager:TransitionManager = new TransitionManager(content_mc);
myTransition2Manager.startTransition({type:Zoom, direction:Transition.IN, duration:1.5, easing:Regular.easeIn});
And this is the link to the site
Thanks

You might want to try using the Tween class instead of the TransitionManager class, and simultaneously tween the scaleX and scaleY properties from and to whatever values you intend.

How to control the data in data selection

Hi,
how to control the data .
in the transfer structure I am having 10 fields and and the file which is to be loaded contains 7 fields only.where can I control the other 3 fields and how .
thanks in advance

If your source file is flat file, add extra three fields with blank (just add field separator say comma for each extra field) and then load. It should be ok.
Hope it helps..

How to control the measure based on the related dimension.

Hi Experts,
In order to improve performance, I have created three kinds of time tables in DB,such as Year .Month, Day.
Then import them into the physical layer in RPD, and combine them into one dimension in BMM.
Actually, it has three level fact related with three time tables,so they are also dragged into one fact in BMM,and one column will be corresponding with three column derived from different Fact table in physical layer.
So I want to know how to control the measure based on the related dimension.
For example:
when users drag the Year,Sales column, it will come from Year Dimension and Year Fact Table.
when users drag the Month,Sales column, it will come from Month Dimension and Month Fact Table.
when users drag the Day,Sales column, it will come from Day Dimension and Day Fact Table.

Hi,
Create a dimension Hierarchy, with Year >> Month >> Day Levels and
Next Double click on Year Table LTS >> click on Ocntetnt Tab >> set as Year
same way for Month LTS and Day LTS.
So now when you select year column then server canknow which LTS to hit and Hits Year LTS.

Thanks.

How to control the size of live data in Coherence?

How to control the size of live data in Coherence?
See the following statement:
Pause times increase as the amount of live data in the heap increases. We recommend not exceeding 70% live data in your heap. This includes primary data, backup data, indexes, and application data.
--Excerpted from http://coherence.oracle.com/display/COH35UG/Best+Practices

In any Java program, it is good practice to make sure your live objects leave some room in the heap for "scratch space." Without this, you will spend too much time in GC, and, in the worst cases, run out of memory. In the general case, you can see how much live data your application requires by looking at the heap used after a full GC's. For Coherence, you should ensure that live data, as you say, is under 70% of the maximum heap size.
Coherence provides you tools to help enforce this policy. [http://coherence.oracle.com/display/COH35UG/local-scheme] describes how to size limit your cache. By implementing an eviction policy, you can control what happens when a size limit is exceeded.

How could control the scroll events in ALV OO?

Hello experts!
I'm programing a report, inside there is a field that need time of processing. I'm using ALV OO.
I have thought that it could only calculate the field for the lines that visualize.
How could control the scroll events to calculate the field of the visualized lines?
I'm using CL_SALV_TABLE class and cl_salv_events_table to control the events, but there aren't any event to control the scroll.
best regards!

Hi Sriram,
I did view the information that you was attaching, but this don't resolve my problem. With methods get_scroll_info_via_id and set_scroll_info_via_id, we can get and put information of selection and view rows in the screen but we don't control when the user click in the scroll for advance or to back down a page.
I would like to refresh the data in ALV when the user view news rows.
I want your genial ideas.
Best regards!

How to control the size of SVG images in epub files?

There is unfortunately no support for SVG files in InDesign.
Most of my images in jpg convertes nicely, but the small ones do not.
Therefore I want to use SVG files which I have created in Illustrator.
But how do I set the size in the epub file? Right now, whatever I do, they come out too big and I don't know how to control the size.
Is there a program, like Sigil or other, that can place the image for me - I'm no html wizard you see....

How to control the looping time of the for loop in 10 microseconds in labview?

I need to create a +/- 9 volt square wave with period of 20us using a D/A card (Not NI card). I can write command to the card using outport provide by Labview. Right now, I can generate square wave with 4ms period which is limited by the resolution of the wait until next ms icon I used inside the for loop. Could anyone tell me how to control the execution time of the for loop to about 10 us? Your help would be much appreciated.

I NEED A SOLUTION ON HOW TO UNLOCK THE AFTER EFFECT "Action Trailer.aep"

I NEED A SOLUTION ON HOW TO UNLOCK THE AFTER EFFECT File, "Action Trailer.aep"

We seriously don't have enough information to help you.
What do you mean by "unlock"?
My wild, shot-in-the-dark guess is that you've got some sort of template that, when you try to save, says that it's locked. If that's the case, try using "Save As" instead. If that's not your problem, refer to Todd's link and provide more info.

How to control the number of fields in the Advanced mode in af:query

Hi,
How to control the number of fields in the Advanced mode in <af:query>?
Say i have 20 fields in my table and i created a view criteria with 2 fields. It would work perfectly in Basic mode. But in the Advanced mode all other fields selection is possible on clicking the ADD Fields button. I did not want the client to make a search with all 20 fields. Only 10 fields are to be listed in the Advanced Mode even though there are 20 fields in my table.
How do i control the list of fields in ADDFields button?
Any ideas?
KR

You can uncheck the Querable property of the attributes which you need not show up in the Advanced Mode (but they will not show up in other modes too !) or programatically set the same as mentioned here -
http://adfcodebits.blogspot.com/2010/11/bit-27-setting-view-object-attributes.htmlAlso you can hide the AddFields button as suggested here - http://www.notjustjava.com/2011/12/cool-tips-to-showhide-components-of-the-query-control-of-adf/
