How to make a graphic rotate using FCP7

I am trying to apply a basic transition/effect to a graphic on my project within FCP7. I want to make an icon rotate like this: http://www.ita.doc.gov/hrm/awards/images/bronze.gif but without the "shine", just a simple rotation on itself.
Is this possible from within FCP7? If so, how do I do it?
I looked online but couldnt find exactly what I wanted.

Hi,
just saw this post.
I have made some slight changes to the code of Basic 3D and I have here for you and everyone who needs it a version called Basic3D plus.
It comes with a checkbox that allows you to animate automatically the Y rotation (no need to keyframe anything), then you can decide the speed by changing (increasing/decreasing) the Y axis Angle values. The higher the faster, the lower the slower.
Uncheck the box and the Y axis angle will work as normal again.
I tested it quickly and it should work for you all too.
This version of Basic 3D can be downloaded here:
http://www.videonline.co.uk/Forums/Basic3Dplus.zip
After downloading the plug-in drag it to Macintosh HD / Library / Application Support / Final Cut Pro System Support / Plugins folder. Finally restart Final Cut Pro and the Basic3D plus should show up in the effects menu > Perspective Folder
Best wishes,
Luca

  • Need direction on how to make motion graphics -AF CS5

    I didn’t know how to word the header for my question so I’ll try to clarify it here. I’m new to AF so please bear with me. In the Adobe tutorial at the link below, he animates a flower. The flower is in front of a colored background and there are some added text that animate as well. I understand about layers but my question is, can I make a graphic like the one in the tutorial in Photoshop CS5 and import it into AF? I just ordered a copy of PS CS5 and have not gotten a chance to work with PS. When I searched the net about my question, I found many links describing how to make web graphics. Would I be making the same thing and saving them not as a web graphic? If I can make something similar to the flower in the tutorial, then I can go from there. I guess what is confusing for me is that the background and flower assets are mp4 (mpeg) video. I thought it would be two graphics in 2 layers, plus additional text as more layers. http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-after-effects-cs5/gs05-working-with-layers/

    Thank you Kevin.  I'll kinda figured that would be the be the steps but wasn't real sure. Once I get going in PS, I'll better understand how to do things.
    Wow, lots to learn.

    I want each user use his own's Plan_Table. How to achieve this goal?Which version of Oracle - if you're on 10g or later you are already (effectively) doing this.
    If not, then copy the 10g strategy back to your version; in outline:
    <ul>
    drop all existing plan tables
    create a table (but call it plan_table$) in the SYS schema (you may prefer to use SYSTEM) as a global temporary table on commit preserve rows
    create a public synonym plan_table for plan_table$
    grant select insert update delete on plan_table to public
    </ul>
    Look in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catplan.sql in a 10g version of Oracle to check how it's done.
    Each user gets a private (temporary) table in their temporary tablespace whenever they use the plan_table
    Their private data disappears when there session ends.

  • How to make an icon image using Photoshop

    I found out how to do this recently so I decided that I wanted to make a tut for those who don't know how to make an icon image. This icon image is for the libraries tab on your computer. Under the libararies tab there is Music, Pictures, Documents, and Photos
    First you will need the ICO (Icon image format) Format extension for photoshop which can be downloaded here:
    http://www.telegraphics.com.au/svn/icoformat/trunk/dist/README.html
    The download link and tutorial on how to install it is all in the link above.
    Once you have that all set you can now launch photoshop to create your icon image. Once you have launched it, create a new document with the size as in the image below.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/256x256_zpsbf3dcf8e.png~original[/IMG]
    Create the image you want. I used a simple one by using the custom shape tool by pressing "U" on your keyboard and with the
    basic blending options.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/IconImage_zpsd788c709.png~original[/IMG]
    The reason why the image is pixelated is because it is an icon image. Since the image is only 256x256 pixels when you zoom in on it that will get you the pixely result. The reason why I zoomed  in is so you can see it. But don't worry this is no the end result. Just continue reading and you will see.
    So once you have created the icon go ahead and press
    file>save as>(under format choose the ICO)>and choose the name that you want to name it. And save it in your C: drive. You will see why to save it in your C: drive in a sec.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/SampleicoPic_zpsd252bfba.png~original[/IMG]
    So now that you have created the icon and saved it now you can create the new library.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/NewLibrary_zps8ca703b2.png~original[/IMG]
    Name the library whatever you want I named it "Sample" for tutorial purposes. Notice how it gives you a default boring icon image for your library.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/Sample1_zpsb5472840.png~original[/IMG]
    So now once you have created and named your library now it is time to get the icon image into place.
    Go to computer/c: Drive/users/YOU/ And now once you have reached this area you will need to access a hidden folder named "appdata" to do so press "Alt" then a menu bar will show. Click
    tools>folder options>and view. Find the option to view hidden folders then press apply then ok. Now we shall continue so AppData>Roaming>Microsoft>Windows>Libraries
    Now you should see all the libraries including the one you just created.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/showhiddenfolder_zpsad4a3c94.png~orig inal[/IMG]
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/Libraries_zpsf6243bc0.png~original[/IMG]
    Once you have reached your destination then open a new text document with notepad and drag the library you just created in notepad. The result should look like this:
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/Notepad_zps251a86f0.png~original[/IMG]
    once you have reached this point click at the end of the second to last line down then press enter and enter in this information
    <iconReference>c:\"NAME OF ICO FILE YOU CREATED IN PS".ico</iconReference>
    Example:
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/iconreference_zps1c1a3eca.png~origina l[/IMG]
    Once you have entered that information go to file>save and the icon image should appear on the library you created.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/Finished_zps267f893a.png~original[/IMG]
    Now you are officially finished. Go and spread the news and joy. Bye for now

    It is Windows only because all those screen shots are exclusively Windows, the file structure and paths do not resemble those of the Mac in the least.  As a Mac user, there's nothing I could take from your tutorial.  Sorry, 
    No drives named with letters like C: on the Mac, for instance.  No backward slashes either, ever.  No such paths either.  No "Notepad" on the Mac, we use TextEdit; but such a text editor is not remotely needed on the Mac to make and/or edit icons.  Etc.
    Those folders are not even called "Libraries" on the Mac…  Nothing resembling your tutorial at all.
    The icons in the Finder's Sidebar are not customizable at all in recent version of OS X.

  • Can't figure out how to make a graphic expand in an animated gif (CS4)

    I'm trying to make an animated gif where two of my graphics expand to the outer edges of the picture. However all that I can manage to accomplish is to have the opacity fade in or out. Is it possible to make a graphic expand in CS4?
    Thanks for any help!

    I'm not very familiar with animation using Photoshop. I have a small amount of experience using Illustrator, but not much. I'm not sure what a normal timeline is.
    What I'm trying to do should be very simple. I want to emulate a tv screen flickering on, using 2 white bars that expand outwards from the center of a blackish background.

  • How to make a music video using flash

    am trying to make a music video for a uni project, one of the things I'm trying to do in the video is to fade in a word at a time in whilst keeping them all aligned properly as a sentence - is there an easy way to do this?
    Any other hints or tips on how to make a video but one especially for music would be much appreciated !! I'm just using Adobe Flash and NOT Adobe Premier, thank you !!

    no, they would need to be created dinamically as the possibilities are unlimited,
    I was thinking of saving the inputs in variables (starting in a) with previous value 0 following this logic:
    if (a==0) {a=36}
    else if (b==0) {b=36}
    else if (c==0) {c=36}
    where 36 is the frame where this button clip starts.
    then, when the user is done i would do this at the end frame of each clip
    if (a=/=0) {frame=a; a=0; goto frame}
    else if (b=/=0) {frame=b; b=0; goto b}
    my only problem here would be how do record the video...

  • How to make a field invisible using t-code SHDG

    Hi Experts,
    I got a requirement to disable a field Business unit in all transactions of Plant maintainance. I heard that it can be done with the help of transaction SHDG.
    I am not aware of this transaction. So anyone please provide some information or the material related to this transaction.
    Also let me know. If i make this field invisible using this transaction. If the same field business unit is used in other modules such as SD, FICO then there also will it get invisible?
    If that is the case how to overcome the above scenario.
    Useful answers are rewarded....
    Thanks
    Kiran.

    Hi,
    I think its not shdg but shd0.
    the best way to do it is Screen Variant and Transcation Variant.
    Tcode for it is SHD0 and you can disable, make any field invisible, make screen invisible , can have default value can be done through SHD0.
    Try it. It will be helpful for you.

  • How to make a SOAP call using the PI 7.1

    Hi All,
    Can you please tell me how can we make a SOAP call using the PI 7.1?
    Thanks in advance

    Hello Shweta,
    Could you please clarify your question? Do you mean you need to call some business system from PI via SOAP? Or do you need to test integration model using SOAP client?
    If the requirement is to make a SOAP call to PI (send SOAP request to PI system), please refer to the guide which Stefan suggested in his post. The general procedure is the following:
    1. generate concrete WSDL in PI (you can do it via PI's Integration Directory);
    2. import generated WSDL to SOAP client (e.g. XML Spy described in the guide or soapUI which is free SOAP client);
    3. create SOAP request message in the SOAP client and send it to the endpoint (in this case, it will be sent to PI).
    This is general procedure for making SOAP calls to SAP PI using external SOAP clients. Please advise if specified steps should be described in more details or if there are any questions from your side regarding them.
    If the question is about calling business system from PI via SOAP, then please refer to SAP Help, configuration of SOAP receiver::

    Making a 'common' connection and passing it around is a bad idea. And making a new connection on every page, as you seem to have already guessed, also involves an overhead that you can do without.
    Like drvijayj2k2 has mentioned, you should use connection pooling.
    Take a look at the Apache Commons DBCP [1] and it's examples [2].

    Thanks

    Umesh - in order to build Answers and Dashboard content you must first setup a Physical model, then a Business model, followed by a Presentation Catalog/Subject Area.
    All these tasks are carried out using the Repository Administration Utility.
    1) Import your physical tables using OCI/ODBC into the physical layer.
    2) Build your model
    3) Deploy
    Then you're ready to start building answers/dashboards.
    Good Luck.

  • How to make Visible and Invisible using a Button?

    hi!... I've a Text3D using Oriented3D object and I would like to know how to make it visible and invisible by clicking a button.
    I know there is a function, setVisible() in RenderingAttributes, which can be set by the object's Appearance.
    Since I want to use a button to change the object's appearance, I need to change it in the button's actionPerformed function, but it has thrown an exception:
    "Shape3D: no capability to set appearance".
    I'd tried using those setCapability flags... but still nothing...
    Could someone help me please?...
    Thanks

    When you create Shape3D, setAppearance to it and
    setCapability(ALLOW_APPEARANCE_READ).
    For the Appearance, you should setCapability(
    ALLOW_RENDERING_ATTRIBUTES_READ).
    For the RenderingAttributes, you should setCapability(
    ALLOW_VISIBLE_WRITE).
    So in the button event handler,
    shape.getAppearance().getRenderingAttributes().setVisible(true/false).
    Now you can control the visiblity of Text3D
