How to include the timeline counter in the sequence

PPCS4
This sounds asif it ought to be simple, yet I can't find a way to do it!
How do I show the timeline counter in the sequence?
I want to create a DVD of project and include the time count on screen.
Can anyone help?
Cheers

Place the sequence containing your editing timeline into a new sequence.
In the Effects panel, type "timec" into the search box.
Apply the Timecode effect to your sequence clip.
Export via Encore to DVD. You may need to render first to see the timecode overlay depending on the format of your source footage.
Remember that F1 is your friend and that Google is pretty helpful, too.

How do I fix the timeline so both the images and the timeline are 1080p?

Hello everybody. I'm a relative newbie to FCP, but not totally new to the world of video editing. I've got a problem that I hope somebody out there can assist me with.
I've shot a lot of footage in HD (1080p) and have imported everything into a timeline. I've performed all my edits, transitions, music integration etc - now when I go to output the footage I realise I've made the mistake of doing everything in a 576p timeline.
I've figured out how to resize the timeline, but all the clips appear in their original 576p resolution in the middle of the canvas (ie huge bars around the image)..
My question is simple enough.. How do I fix the timeline so both the images and the timeline are 1080p? Is there a method to 'resize' all the clips to the new timeline? Will this resize the 576p clips or will they still be native 1080p?
If importing all those clips into the original timeline has destroyed pixels, then resizing to 1080p is definately not what I want to do. I want to retain all the resolution of the original clips.
Any advice would be very much appreciated. I've created nearly 300 edits in this timeline, not including all the effects and transitions. If I have to redo all this because I set up the timeline incorrectly I'm going to be rather upset!
Thanks everybody.

If you captured the footage as 1080 then the fastest way to re-size all the clips back to 1080 is to select all the clips on the time line and then in the menu bar go to Edit -> Remove Attributes. This will pop up window asking which attributes you want to remove. I would try checking the Basic Motion and Distort attributes and click OK. This should pop everything back to their original size and shape.
However, this will also remove any re-sizing or distortion that is intentional (ie to blow up a particular clip so you can focus on something).

How can I bring the recordset count inside the same recordset?

I have a query inside a procedure where I'm paging the results.
I dont know how to bring the total results inside the recordset.
How can I bring the recordset count inside the same recordset?
SELECT *
FROM ( select a.*, rownum rnum
     FROM (SELECT
          FROM table
          ORDER BY id DESC) a
     WHERE rownum <= pg*50 )
WHERE rnum > (pg-1)*50

My query is much more comples, so that is why I'm using the other script.
When I included the "COUNT(*) OVER() tot_cnt AS total" it didn't worked:
ORA-00904: "TOT_CNT": invalid identifier
What is the tot_cnt?
SELECT *
FROM (SELECT a.*, rownum rnum
FROM (SELECT
ed_fotos.id AS COD_FOTO,
ed_fotos.arquivo AS NOM_ARQUIVO,
ed_areas.nome AS NOM_REDACAO,
COUNT(*) OVER() tot_cnt AS total
FROM edt.ed_fotos ed_fotos
INNER JOIN edt.ed_volumes ed_volumes ON ed_volumes.id = ed_fotos.volume_id
INNER JOIN edt.ed_caminhos path_alta ON path_alta.id = ed_volumes.caminho1
INNER JOIN edt.ed_caminhos path_baixa ON path_baixa.id = ed_volumes.caminho2
INNER JOIN edt.ed_areas ed_areas ON ed_areas.id = ed_fotos.redacao_id
ORDER BY id DESC) a
WHERE rownum <= 200 )
WHERE rnum >= 100

How to determine the page count of the front document (pdf-Preview) with applescript?

Hello, I'm a beinnger apple scripter, and I have 2 questions. First, im trying to find the code to generate a page count for the front document of preview. I tried something like this:
choose file with prompt "Count the number of pages in this PDF file:" without invisibles
do shell script "/usr/bin/mdls -name kMDItemNumberOfPages " & quoted form of POSIX path of result & " | /usr/bin/grep -o '[0-9]\\+$'"
But I dont want to have to choose a file with the prompt, and Im not sure how to get the path or POSIX path of an open pdf that is the front document in prievew to then use that directory to select the file to run the shell script on. This is one step in a much larger sequence of automator/apple script commands for large print jobs.
The large scale view is:
1. seleting a group .musx Finale 2014 files and creating pdfs of all the documents
     -Achieved with Automator stuff: [Get selected finder items] [open finder items with Finale 2014] [run applescript to convert to pdf all the open files] (which I have working but without a proper repeat condition)
2. sorting those those exports into even/odd groups
3. making the even pages 2 up with a create booklet plugin
3. combinging even/odd group pdfs in their respective folders
4. sending the 2 up evens to 1 printer, and the singes to another printer.
but at this stage in the code/automator this is what i'll need to be doing:
1. Several pdf documents will be open and I need to determine the page count of the front document.
2. With that result I need to determine if the pagecount is even or odd.
3. If its even, I need to save as pdf in a file folder /desktop/PDF Export/Doubles
     - if its odd, I need to save as pdf pages from 1 to (pageCount -1) to /desktop/PDF Export/Doubles, and pages (pageCount) to (pageCount) to desktop/PDF Export/Singles. (example: A 5 page pdf will send pages 1-4 to folder "Doubles", and pages from 5 to 5 to Singles, A 1 page pdf will only send a copy to the folder "Singles." A 2 page pdf will send both pages to "doubles"
4. once the even/odd pages have had pdfs made in the either or both of the folders, Im going to close the document and repeat for all other open pdfs.
Which also brings me to my 2nd repeat condition question: how can I repeat (print, save as pdf, close) commands for open files and end the script once all files are closed? This can help me both at this stage, as well the coding stage before in creating the pdfs from open Finale/sibelius .sib/.musx files
would it be something like this?:
If front document exists
try
tell application "preview"
<bla bla>
end try
end tell
At stage 1 of the large scale i've gotten the files to export pdfs and close multiple files, but if i say "repeat 4 times" and i have 3 files it can do those commands but it gets stuck trying to repeat the code one more time. I need the repeat amount x to be the # of items in selection from the the original finder window.
Thanks for the help!

The following AppleScript will get the POSIX path and filename of the current PDF file. It will just return the integer value for page count. Note: The path retrieved is the actual path to the PDF file, unless it is on the Desktop. In the latter case, the path will be ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Preview/Data/Desktop/filename.pdf.
The script assumes that the following folders exist, otherwise you will need a try block to test for their presence.
The AppleScript dictionary for Preview does not provide a page dictionary entry, that would make a repeat loop and page range possible for saving individual page ranges.
set pdfDoubles to POSIX path of ((path to desktop) & "PDF Export" & Doubles)
set pdfSingles to POSIX path of ((path to desktop) & "PDF Export" & Singles)
tell application "Preview"
-- gets quoted POSIX path and filename
          set pdfFile to (get path of front document)
          set pdfName to (get name of front document)
log pdfName
          set cmdArg to "/usr/bin/mdls -name kMDItemNumberOfPages " & pdfFile ¬
                    & " | egrep -o \"(\\d+)\""
          set pageCnt to do shell script cmdArg
display dialog pageCnt
          if pageCnt mod 2 is 0 then
-- even
-- save pdfName in pdfDoubles
          else
-- save pdfName in pdfDoubles
-- save individual pages in pdfSingles
          end if
end tell

How to include in table of contents the list of figures and list of tables?

How to include in table of content the "Table of contents", "List of figures" and "List of tables"? All are generated with function Table of contents, but they will not appear in generated table of contents even if they have proper style of headings - Heading 1, as other chapter.
I get this in generated Table of contentes of my dissertaion thesis:
Table of contents
Preface
Table of contents <- missing
List of tables <- missing
List of figures <- missing
Introduction
Main
Conclusion
Is it ok, that generated lists are not included in table of contents?

You've just confused me.
My understanding of how this is set up is that either:
This is a book, and there is a master TOC that includes all book documents and a document-specific TOC in each component file, or
This is a single file and there is one master TOC that includes all sections and a section-specific TOC that includes only the individual section.
In the first case, I think you would want two TOC styles set up, one that includes the chapter heads (if I understood how you said this worked) for the for the master, and you would include all docs in the book when you generate it, and a second style for the individual chapters, with the subheadings you want to include.
In the second case, it would be similar, but instead of only one style to cover the section TOCS, I think you would need to create a unique set of pargraph styles for the headings in each section (they can all be the same format, based one section, just with unique names), and then make a TOC style for each section that includes only the styles from that section.
OK, wait a sec. I just reread what you said: "Another thing: when the numbers are "linked" and updating well, they display indide a little box. Not a text box, but a kind of little frame around the numbers. That frame makes it imposible to delete just one number: when the TOC says that Section 6.1 is in page 135, for example, you cannot delete just the 5, it deletes, not just the 3 numbers, but also the doted tab."
I think these are NOT normal TOCs created by using Layout > TOC (but you could replace them with ones that are, if you set up your styles properly and the text you want to include is appearing on the pages). Those little boxes you mention sound like cross-references, which should update automatically without any intervention at all. Unfortunately, cross-refs can be flakey, especially if they point to another document. I'd open the cross-refs panel and see if you need to recreate a bunch of links.

How to get the column count at the bottom of the column

Hi Friends,
How to get the column count at the bottom of the column
Thanks
Raj

You mean row count? Add another column, click on the fx button and type RCOUNT(1).
If you want just the total you can make it MAX(RCOUNT(1)), hide this column and then add a Narrative View after your report and enter "Total Number of Records: @n" where "n" represents what order your column is from the left side.

I always need to see the time counter on the music player, is that possible?

As a spinning instructor I need to see the time counter on the music player all the time. Now it dissepears after a short time and I need to touch it to see it again and that is not good! I also wish that it was bigger numbers on the counter so I easy can see how long time it's lest on the songs.
Ideas anyone?

By default the screen display will dim in about 20 seconds to conserve the battery. And I cannot find any setting to inhibit this function. I am afraid there is no way you can keep the screen bright and enlarge the numbers on the timer.

Shorten Clips In The Timeline And Shorten The Project Duration

When I shorten a clip in the timeline by dragging on one end a blank space appears. I know this is in order to keep the project the same duration but I do not want this. I am happen for the project duration to reduce in accordance with my timeline clip editing, without any blank spaces appearing.
How do I achieve this noting that this seems to be a recent default situation, whether I use FCPX 10.09 or 10.01.01.

Thank you Tom and Luis, but I'm not with any of this. I can add a clip to the timeline or insert a clip into it via the "arrow tools". If I attempt to shorten the clip IN the timeline there is a blank space representing the amount trimmed from the clip.
I want the next clip along to that I've trimmed to automatically move along the timeline albeit shortening the total project duration.
Pressing "A" on the keyboard doesn't achieve this.
I simply click on the clip in the timeline to highlight it with the yellow margin. I then click on one "edge" with the arrows symbol and drag the edge inwards. This then leaves the space I do not want.
As for "Preferences" when I click this under "Final Cut Pro" i see nothing either relevant to this problem or that I could trash.

Display metadata instead of clip name on the clips in the timeline and in the source monitor

Is there a way to display metadata instead of clip name on the clips in the timeline and in the source monitor? Clip names are usually set by the camera and are of no use to me. What i would like the clip and the source monitor to display is the name of the shot from the metadata. That's,in my opinion, a very useful info when you're editing a film. If that feature doesn't exist, is there a way to batch rename clips based on metadata?

thanks
is that new or was that always there. Not to sure if I have tried that in the past
anyway it helped and will makes things much faster
one other question maybe you have an answer to that too. it seems both Audio tracks are independ when putting on keyframes is there a way when using keyframes in the time line that it affect both channels of audio for example a1 an a2
once again thanks for your help

Can I make the timeline move around the playhead in FCP

I'd like not to have to chase the playhead around in FCP. Is there a way to make it remain static in the timeline and have the clips move past it?

No. Use feedback to add a feature request.

How to include WS-Security Header in the WSDL

hi
how to include WS-Security Header which have username and password as
i had seen the below link it deals with just hello world which is not using any Services(DBAdapter) is it possible to use DBAdapter as the steps present in the below link how to include WS-Security Header which have username and password
http://blogs.oracle.com/reynolds/2005/09/invoking_bpel_from_an_html_for.html

As Amir suggested, you may provide in the URL but I wouldn't suggest it though. You don't want to hard code the user ID and password within in the WSDL because it is a bad practice especially the user ID and password may be different in different systems and every time you change the password, you have to regenarate your WSDL.
May be you thought through this but just in case if you didn't

How to include non database item in the query

Hi
I have a Master-Detail form. where in the detail block one of the field is text item 'X' attached the list of values(Y). Master block includes non database items which is based in the decoding result of the database items for example:
Gender(Male, Female)>> non database item
Gender_id(M,F)>>database item
the form is created based on the template.fmb form for apps. When I run the form in the query mode, i can query about any database item while including query about others non database item does not affect.
how to can i modify it so this could be handled??
I know that one way to avoid this issue is to create a view with all my desired field.
but there should be away to override the build in query used by oracle apps...
any one has a link, source, document... etc that help on this??
any idea how to do it without creating a view??
thnx alot

Hi HST,
You can code the handling in POST-Query of the corresponding block to retrive the corresponding data depending on the Queried data.

How to include a response element in the ESB database adapter.

hi,
i am using the dbadapter to insert the data into the table successfully.
The problem is when i am using a db adapter it doesnot include a response element in its wsdl.I want to send a response to the client as and when the data got inserted from the dbadapter for that transaction.
i tried using the pl/sql procedure with a out parameter which returns the response but the problem is the pl/sql is called by adapter only once though i am using for each constructor.
i tried to modify the xsd generated by the dbadapter by including the response element,but the xsd is not getting parsed and throwing error.
how to overcome this problem and send a immediate response to the client as and when the adapter inserts the data into oracle?
thanks in advance.

Although not the cleanest solution, but can't you create another routing service which defines a request (equal to the request element of the original routing service) and reply element (defining a single element called success or something).
Then have this new routing service invoke your original routing service which invokes the database adapter. Now define a XSLT map for the reply of the new routing service and put an XSL text there with the value "success" or something?
So:
Routing_service_new --> Routing_service_original --> database_adapter
