How to edit existing theme drop zones ?

I have created an opening theme with 3 drop zones. Have saved the project file. All is ok at this point.
Now, later, I want to edit / change one of the items/content in the drop zones. How do I recall/ edit the content of the existing drop zones for this existing theme in my time line ?

Jeff,
Once the theme is rendered the only way to change it is to redo it. The whole thing.

  • Editing a picture to fit into theme drop zone

    I have cropped a picture in iphoto to remove a damaged portion and to reposition the important part of the picture to show in the Memories theme in idvd but the original photo keeps appearing.
    I have several questions.
    Can I move a picture in the drop zone in a theme like Memories that is horizontal to better show the important part of the picture rather than the midpoint?
    Why does my original photo and not the cropped photo appear in the drop zone even when the picture I see shows the cropped picture?

    This is where DVDSP out performs iDvd. There is much more latitude (literally) within apple's pro apps for exactly this type of work. It is possible within iDvd also (to a marginal extent). But there's only so much i-apps will offer when compared to apple's pro apps. Hence the need for a graphics editing app (ie, PhotoShop).
    It actually becomes a bit frustrating without the additional features / tools to do the work that's needed to customize your iDvd in this respect. It's almost as if one is at the mercy of the software along with it's built in limitations. It is a shortfall IMO, even though it is intended as a consumer app.

  • How to edit existing captured pages

    Ok, I am going to try and describe this, and I appreciate your patience and thoughtfulness.  I am hoping to get the language correct on the aspects of the question.  I have an existing pages template which has several "captured" pages that are available to append to the active document by clicking on the "sections" button.  A drop down menu opens and I choose from that list what page I want to append to the existing document. I would like to know how to edit the contents of a few of those captured pages and continue using them as I have been.  I know I created this docment with the help of the Apple store staff about three years ago, but can't recall how to change this and would appreciate your assistance.

    You do the editing and then capture the page again.

  • Travel Theme Drop Zones

    I burned a dvd with the travel theme main menu, and had about 5 or 6 drop zones. Filled these in with pictures (2 were background pictures), looked great. Just one month later, and no change in software, I am now creating another dvd, but this same travel theme now only has one drop zone. A lot less motion as well. I know I didn't make up the previous theme. I can play it back on my DVD. Any ideas how I get to the longer, more-drop-zone Travel theme menu? Thank you!
    Message was edited by: Ken Hainsworth

    Thanks for the reply. I wish I could show the larger drop-zone travel main menu to everyone. About 4 photos go by, with the red dotted lines swirling around, and then a stamp comes down to ink a passport stamp next to the final photo. This is bizarre: I have no idea why I can't find it just a month or two later. Does everyone else have a 1 drop-zone travel main menu?

  • How to edit existing pdf's from RoboHelp 8

    Hi,
    Our company had been using an old version of RH5 for many years, and we've recently upgraded to RH8 to manage our company Infocenter (knowledge repository). We have many pdf files within this repository.
    Before upgrading to RH8, we would edit pdf files using Adobe Writer very easily. However, after upgrading to RH8 and installing it on a brand new computer, our attempts to install Adobe Writer failed with a message saying there is a more functional product already installed on the workstation. No other Adobe products apart from RH8 are currently installed.
    I think this means that RH8 can edit pdf files with no additional software, can anyone confirm? And if so, how do we go about doing it? (For now I only need to know how to edit pdf's, not create them.)
    Thanks, and my apologies in advance if this was covered in another thread, but I couldn't find any information.
    T.

    I suspect that Acrobat Writer is seeing the PDF writer that you installed with RoboHelp as being the later version.
    I don't use that as I have the full version of Acrobat so I cannot check but I don't believe you can use the lighter version that comes with RoboHelp to edit PDFs.
    Thus you can write PDFs with what you have but I suspect you cannot directly edit. You would need Acrobat Pro for that and buying the Technical Communication Suite would have been a better option.
    Do you have the source files that created those PDFs? If so you can edit those and use the PDF writer that shipped with RH8 to create new PDFs.
    See www.grainge.org for RoboHelp and Authoring tips

  • How to edit existing Spry Menu?

    I created a Spry Menu, but now that it's published (saved) I
    don't see how to edit it so I can easily add more menu items using
    DW's visual tool. All I can get to is the menu's CSS.
    How do I edit an existing Spry Menu to add/remove more items?
    I'm using CS3.

    I guess I dont understand. You can add or remove or change
    the menu in the
    properties panel. You can do all that in the design view as
    well, so I'm
    not sure what I am missing.
    Is the page available to view?

  • How to remove iDVD Template Drop Zones?

    Hi! I'm looking to remove all drop zones from iDVD to have a simple black background that could be replaced with a .mov file.
    Essentially, I'd like to remove the 3 drop zones from the "Modern" 7.0 theme.
    Please let me know if this is possible, thanks!
    Alex

    This is from iDVD Help: _Adding or hiding drop zones_
    The drop zones in a theme are a permanent part of the graphics or animations included in that theme. Therefore, you can’t add drop zones, delete individual drop zones, or change the location of drop zones on a menu. You can, however, hide all the drop zones on a menu so that they don’t appear in your final project. This is particularly helpful when you want to create a simple custom theme.
    To hide all drop zones on a menu screen:
    Make sure the menu whose drop zones you want to hide is showing in the iDVD window.
    With your pointer over the menu, press Command-I to open the Menu Info window.
    Deselect the “Show drop zones and related graphics” checkbox.
    The drop zones immediately disappear from the menu, and they do not appear in your final burned project. Some other graphical elements may also be hidden.
    You can always show the drop zones and ornaments again after you’ve hidden them. Simply open the Menu Info window and select the “Show drop zones and related graphics” checkbox.
    To replace the background, open the menu info window. For full directions, go to iDVD Help, and look up _Changing the background image of a DVD menu_.
    I hope this helps.

  • How to edit existing site in iDisk/web/site/iWeb ??

    I have a site saved on my iDisk that I had previously deleted from the iWeb program on my laptop. Now I would like to go in and edit it and I cannot figure out how to get it back into my iWeb on my laptop. Any thoughts??

    You cannot do this. If the site has been deleted from iWeb and you do not have a backup of the Domain file that exists at username/Library/Application Support/iWeb before you deleted the site, then you must restart from scratch.
    You can use the old site to cut and paste content back into iWeb to create a new site.

  • How to edit existing gif file using photoshop (CS2)

    Hello Forum,
    I have some gif images that I have used for creating tabs on a
    web page. I downloaded these images from somewhere, and did not create them
    myself. I would like to change the color of these gif files.
    They are a nice image, with a gradient applied at the top, and I have a left side gif for the tab as well as an "over" image set for the tab(s) as well.
    I use the images in a css file to display the tabs on a web page.
    The gradient is across the top of the tab, which is a lighter color, almost going to white, and the rest of the tab is a light blue, with left and right top a slight rounded corner. I would like to preserve the gradient appearance, but change the light blue theme to an almost black (#333333) color.
    How can I do this in photoshop?
    Thanks,

    Hi All
    I would like to create an action in CS2 to resize an image to e.g 600 x ? pixels and then save for web at max 149kb .
    Any clues? I've tried a few different files of different file sizes?(possible cause here) and always end up with different results when using my actions or the image processor.
    Is this at all possibleto accomplish in a single step?
    Let me elaborate more. On a particular forum where post we are limited to 600 x? pixels and file size no greater than 150 kb. When creating this action in CS2 with different file sizes one lands up with files ranging from 70kb (not as good for viewing) to 149kb(perfect size)or 357kb?(way too big). I'd like to have as close to <150kb for ALL files in the "action"
    Is this possible without getting into scripting?
    Thanks

  • How to edit Existing Search Criteria

    Hi Experts,
    In my ADF application already I have Search Criteria, for this existing I have to add two more fields say 'LOB' and 'CustomerName' as a Dropdown.
    The following LOB values should be available in dropdown and these LOB values should be accessed from DB Table.
    Upon selection of LOB value as ‘SNI’ ,customer name dropdown is displayed and the customer names related to that LOB are populated in the dropdown.
    View Object is created on Read only access through SQL_Query.
    please can anyone suggest me for the same??
    thanks

    For this, you need to create LOV for LOB and a dependent LOV for customer names.
    Ex. you create a new VO for LOB - select LOB from ...... and another VO for customers - select cust_name from ..... where lob = :lob (this is fed by the LOB lov)
    Once you do this in the model, your query component will behave as you want.
    You can watch the video of the Shay's cascaded lov building tutorial here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXwL2_RP7AQ
    Make sure that you set dependency of customer name on LOB in the properties

  • Opened a jpg in adobe photoshop.how to edit existing text?

    please help

    You can't. A jpeg is a flat file. The text is part of it.  If it were on a plain background, you could erase and overwrite, but if the background has detail, then not much you can do.

  • Using a movie with sound in a drop zone

    I want to use a movie, and its sound, in a theme drop zone. The movie plays just fine, but no sound. I tried using the inspector and turn up the sound (it's set at zero) but no luck. I know I can drop music into the background of a theme, but how can I use both a movie and sound?
    Thanks

    Thank you for the quick feedback. The fact of the matter is disappointing. Is there another software I should look at, to convert still images (I use Photo to Movie to manipulate those) and movies (I use iMovie) into DVDs?
    Thanks again,
    John Nall

  • Help with DROP ZONES!!

    Hi. Firstly, sorry if I'm not able to explain myself in the proper terminology...very new to Pages and all.
    Here is my query:
    How do you create a Drop Zone (if that's what it's called)? i.e.The zones on the templates that enable you to drop a picture (any image) in them and they fill the shape entirely. So instead as using a solid colour as a fill, you'd use an image?
    Thank you!!

    pseudo,
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    In Pages' parlance, it's called a Placeholder. Just insert an image, any image, into your Pages document. Select it. Click on Format > Advanced > Define As Media Placeholder. That's all there is to it.
