How to make a proper lightsaber with animation.

I just done shooting a film and I'd like to make it a Starwars look-alike. So I want to know; how do you make a beautiful lightsaber that follows a certain source of movement.
I've tried to use the Neon Rectangle tool and made me a lightsaber, though it wont move at all.
I've tried to move it pr. frame but it just move it in all the frames. I've tried to use the Motion Trail tool but it just wont work proper.
Please help me

There is a far easier way - get hold of the "lazer" FCP plugin from Virtix... set your in and out points frame by frame and away you go!
I did this recently and just used sound fx from the web... here, have a look yourself!

Is their any tutorials on how to make a navigation bar with drop downs in Dreamweaver CC now ?

Is their any tutorials on how to make a navigation bar with drop downs in Dreamweaver CC now that they do not have the spry option?

bbull2005 wrote:
Preran, why wouldn't Dreamweaver include it's own menu/navigation bar widget?
I can't answer on Preran's or Adobe's behalf, but I think you'll find at least part of the answer here: http://wiki.jqueryui.com/w/page/38666403/Menubar
Adobe decided to discontinue development of Spry in August last year, and Dreamweaver CC made the switch to using jQuery UI widgets and effects. One reason for dropping Spry was that it failed to work correctly in some browsers. Judging from the fact that the jQuery UI menubar is now "on ice", creating a flyout menu that works reliably across all devices is proving more difficult than originally envisaged.
Because all other widgets in Dreamweaver CC use jQuery UI, it's a reasonable assumption that Adobe hoped the jQuery UI menubar would be ready in time, but it wasn't.

Thanks for the reply.
The video clip is a single screen capture video clip. This is what I've found by playing around with this more.
The original clip resolution is greater than 640x480. If I use QT Pro to convert the original clip to 640x480 and then use either Flip4Mac or PE7, then the resolution looks good.
Just trying to figure out if should keep all workflow on the MacOS side. There are several different version of Flip4Mac. $49 gives me 640x480, but if I ever want to make it slightly larger then I would need to go with the $99 or HD version.
I also tried to export to AVI with QT Pro and the import with Windows MovieMaker but it didn't work really good. I liked the simplicity (since PE7 hogs a lot of resources especially through VMWare).

How to make Dynamically Shortened Text With "Show More"

Hi there! i want to know how to make dynamically shortened text with show more or read more in my website using HTML 5 pages or ASP.NET ?
example like these paragraphs
Lorem Ipsum är en utfyllnadstext från tryck- och förlagsindustrin. Lorem ipsum har varit standard ända sedan 1500-talet, när en okänd boksättare tog att antal bokstäver och blandade dem för att göra ett provexemplar av en bok. Lorem ipsum har inte bara överlevt fem århundraden, utan även övergången till elektronisk typografi utan större förändringar. Det blev allmänt känt på 1960-talet i samband med lanseringen av Letraset-ark med avsnitt av Lorem Ipsum, och senare med mjukvaror som Aldus PageMaker.
Det är ett välkänt faktum att läsare distraheras av läsbar text på en sida när man skall studera layouten. Poängen med Lorem Ipsum är att det ger ett normalt ordflöde, till skillnad från "Text här, Text här", och ger intryck av att vara läsbar text. Många publiseringprogram och webbutvecklare använder Lorem Ipsum som test-text, och en sökning efter "Lorem Ipsum" avslöjar många webbsidor under uteckling. Olika versioner har dykt upp under åren, ibland av olyckshändelse, ibland med flit (mer eller mindre humoristiska).
I motsättning till vad många tror, är inte Lorem Ipsum slumvisa ord. Det har sina rötter i ett stycke klassiskt litteratur på latin från 45 år före år 0, och är alltså över 2000 år gammalt. Richard McClintock, en professor i latin på Hampden-Sydney College i Virginia, översatte ett av de mer ovanliga orden, consectetur, från ett stycke Lorem Ipsum och fann dess ursprung genom att studera användningen av dessa ord i klassisk litteratur. Lorem Ipsum kommer från styckena 1.10.32 och 1.10.33 av "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (Ytterligheterna av ont och gott) av Cicero, skriven 45 före år 0. Boken är en avhandling i teorier om etik, och var väldigt populär under renäsanssen. Den inledande meningen i Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem Ipsum dolor sit amet...", kommer från stycke 1.10.32.
Den ursprungliga Lorem Ipsum-texten från 1500-talet är återgiven nedan för de intresserade. Styckena 1.10.32 och 1.10.33 från "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" av Cicero hittar du också i deras originala form, åtföljda av de engelska översättningarna av H. Rackham från 1914.

Moved to the main Dreamweaver support forum.
There are several ways you could approach this. Here's one you might try:
Give the first paragraph an ID, such as "first", and wrap the paragraphs you want to hide in a <div> with another ID, such as "more". Then add the following block of JavaScript just before the closing </body> tag of the page:
<script>
var first = document.getElementById('first'),
     more = document.getElementById('more'),
     trigger = document.createElement('span');
trigger.id = 'trigger';
trigger.innerHTML = 'Show less';
first.appendChild(trigger);
function toggleDiv() {
var state = more.className,
       text = trigger.innerHTML;
more.className = (state == 'open') ? 'closed' : 'open';
trigger.innerHTML = (text == 'Show more') ? 'Show less' : 'Show more';
toggleDiv();
if (trigger.addEventListener) {
    trigger.addEventListener('click', toggleDiv, false);
} else if (trigger.attachEvent) {
trigger.attachEvent('onclick', toggleDiv);
} else {
trigger.onclick = toggleDiv;
</script>
This gets references to the "first" paragraph and the "more" <div>. It also creates a <span> with the ID "trigger" that's appended to the "first" paragraph. The rest of the script defines a function called toggleDiv(), which toggles the "more" <div> open and closed, and changes the text in the "trigger" <span>.
You also need to create the following style rules for the various elements:
<style>
#trigger {
    text-decoration: underline;
    color: blue;
    cursor: pointer;
#more {
    transition: ease-out .7s;
    overflow: hidden;
#more p:first-child {
    margin-top: 0;
#more.closed {
    height: 0;
    -webkit-transform: translateY(-600px);
    transform: translateY(-600px);
#more.open {
    -webkit-transform: translateY(0);
    transform: translateY(0);
    max-height: 600px;
#more + p {
    margin-top: 0;
</style>
This solution hides the text and creates the "trigger" <span> only if JavaScript is enabled in the browser. It should work in all browsers, including Internet Explorer 8 and earlier.

My 3gs wont restore after ios 5 update. I have tried firmware restore and restore from backup, neither works. All I get is "iphone restore failed because backup session failed" Any ideas on how to make a successful restore with this ios 5 update?

My 3gs wont restore after ios 5 update. I have tried firmware restore and restore from backup, neither works. All I get is "iphone restore failed because backup session failed" Any ideas on how to make a successful restore with this ios 5 update?

I was having the same problem, I backed up my phone and then updated to iOS 5 and then it kept telling me it could not restore from my backup as it had failed. After reading a bunch of forums and posts and trying everything, I did manage to get it to work. I had tried the Time zone, creating a new computer user account, disabling anti-virus, etc.
It took a combination of things, one of which was disabling the anti-virus completely and copying the contents of the backup folder to my desktop and then deleting everything in the backup folder. Then I rebooted the PC, entirely disabled the anti-virus, copied the one backup I wanted to restore from the desktop to the backup folder and then trying to restore. Low and behold the phone said restoring from backup and I am back in business, so when in doubt, trying combining some of the fixes together.

YES! How to make PRINT QUOTAS WORK with 10.4

How to make PRINT QUOTAS WORK in 10.4
After struggling for quite some time, I finally found a pretty simple way to make print quotas work.
First, I’ll tell you our setup. We have 3 different computer centers with a variety of eMacs and new Intel iMacs, all clients are running 10.4.8, and each of those 3 centers has its own HP Laserjet 4200 printer. Our dual G5 server is running Server v.10.4.8. Client computers and printers have static IP addresses. All clients are bound to the server with the standard WorkGroup Manager/ LDAPv3 Directory Access scheme - such that all students login to the clients with their network username/password to mount their home directory on the client.
Next, I’ll tell you what does not work. IF YOU WANT PRINT QUOTAS TO WORK, you cannot use Workgroup Manager to assign a printer to any managed user account, user group, or computer group. Why? Because when you go to a client, and Show Info on the printer that is being pushed by Workgroup Manager, you’ll see that the queue name is not the queue that you’ve setup in Server Admin. Instead, you’ll see the queue name is “MCX” or something along those lines. Even if you manually edit the Workgroup print preference file that is being pushed to clients, it still will not work.
Drawbacks of my technique: In my case, students will see all 3 printers (1 from each lab) available to them no matter which lab they are in. Not the best, but for now I think it’ll be worth it to be able to control wasteful printing. Students may be able to move/delete the preference file (see below), but they’ll only be hurting themselves, as they won’t have any printers at all then.
Okay, here’s how I did it:
1. If you have setup any printers to be pushed out via Workgroup Manager’s preference enforcement to individual users, usergroups, or computer groups, turn those preferences off and leave them off.
2. Delete any existing printers in your Printer Setup Utility and/or Server Admin. Add and setup a new printer queue using the Server Admin> Print service. I added the printer through the Server Admin application, not Printer Setup Utility (may not matter). However, I did go into that latter utility to set the model of the printer. Now, back in Server Admin, edit the printer queue to turn on these services IPP, LPR (bonjour off), and of course check off the enforce quotas box. (No student Windows clients, so I didn’t tinker with SMB print service). I went ahead and specified the standard cover sheet – it will be handy while troubleshooting.
3. In Workgroup Manager, select the users that you want to enforce quotas upon, go to the Printer Quota tab (not the preference pane) and, in my case, I selected All Queues and specified a quota, and clicked Save.
4. Delete all printers that appear in the Printer Setup Utility from each client computer (I know, UGH).
5. For all network users, you need to edit a preference file and put it into each user’s home directory. That file is “com.apple.print.favorites.plist” and as you guessed, it needs to go into the Library> Preferences folder of every one of your network users’ home directories. Now, the content of that file is crucial… what it should show is the name of the queue(s) you created in Server Admin above, and be immediately followed by an “@” and the address of the server that is hosting that queue. For example, my queue’s name is TCStudentQ and the server’s address is student.mydomain.org… so my preference file has this entry: [email protected]. If you have more than one queue, you’ll have more entries. Be sure that the network user has at least Read level access under Group or Others. I’d recommend making the server System account the Owner of the file, and be sure to lock the file so the users can’t easily trash it. If you don’t know how to create this file in the first place, what you can do is go to a client computer, and log into the client with a dummy network account. Then open Printer Setup Utility, and you should see the queue you created in step 2. Add that printer, and then the file will be created in your dummy account’s home directory under Library> Preferences. Now you can use that file to distribute to other user’s folders… but don’t forget that each user needs Read level access.
6. That’s it. Works for me. When they exceed the quota, all that spits out is the cover page. It’d be nice if there was a quota monitor utility on the client side so users can see how many pages they have remaining and when the quota will automatically reset. I plan to start the quota on a Monday morning and go on a weekly duration. Not sure what a good starting point is… perhaps 25 pages every school week.
7. Hey Apple Computer, Inc. Server Developers & Project Managers, I truly hope you’re reading this and can explain why print quotas don’t function as you have documented and advertised. I don’t mean to toot my own horn, but I’ve spent way too much time discovering this workaround, and I know it will help thousands of others with the same problem. I can see where your Print Quota system breaks down, and I think you need to fix these issues or at least document them. Don’t forget to fix serious 10.4 Server bugs before leaving it behind for 10.5 Server – many of us will continue using 10.4 Server for at least another year or two.

David,
Your assumption that I didn't read the documentation is incorrect. I read that 10.4 documentation over and over - followed it to the letter to no avail. Perhaps it was updated in the last few weeks? So, do you have a fully operable printer quota system in conjunction with a managed computer or user group that has a managed printer pushed to the group via Workgroup Manager? I can push a managed printer to a managed group without a problem, but the quotas won't be enforced unless I use the workaround above and cut Workgroup Manager's managed/pushed printer out of the picture.
I know this is a user-to-user forum - however, I'm also aware that Apple tech support often chime in here, so it doesn't hurt to post a message to them in the context of a larger posting about a 'known issue'. I have used the server feedback form... hasn't seemed to me to be very helpful in the past.

How to make a round Slider with an image ?

hello everybody,
I'm back and i have a new question : how to make a round Slider (like a volume knob) with an image ?
I see this very interisting tutorial : http://fxexperience.com/2012/01/fun-javafx-2-0-audio-player/ but it use a private class from com.sun.javafx.scene.control.skin.SkinBase...
thank you for your answer.
Gaëtan.

I'm guessing you could subclass Slider to create a class SliderKnob.
At some stage in the process, not sure where (perhaps after calling super in the constructor), you could look up the slider region's child thumbnail and track and call setVisible(false) and setManaged(false) on them, create an ImageView for your knob, add the knob ImageView to the slider's region and bind the ImageView's rotateProperty to the slider's valueProperty(). Not sure that that is any better than using the SkinBase stuff, but at least it is an alternative idea.
Everything to create your own controls has not been added to the public API, so if you want to make your own controls in the same way the JavaFX does them (i.e. with Skin's and Behaviours and stuff like that) you have to make use of com.sun classes unless you can subclass and modify the workings of existing controls similar to what is proposed in the preceding paragraph.

How to make a line intersect with a path at random angles?

How do you make a line intersect with the anchor point of a half circle when you want the line to continue on past the anchor point of the half circle at a random angle?

Howdy.
Try this:
Lock the semicircle. With the pen tool, draw a line from the point of origin to the anchor point of the semicircle. It will still snap even though it's locked.
Now, we use Jet's scale idea. Select the Scale Tool (S). Click on the point of origin to position the reference point. It will snap. Now, while holding down the Shift Key, drag right and down. The line segment will stay snapped to the endpoint while you drag (highlighted). You can drag it as far as you want.
That's it.
Peace,
Lee
PS: It's pretty much all Jet's method with the benefit of the OP's screenshot of what he was trying to accomplish. Jet offered the best answer, it looks like to me.

How to make a christmas newsletter with pictures

how do I make a christmas newsletter with pictures all around. I want to arrange the pictures. the collage does it but I want to place them.

Click File >> Open and select all of your photos
That will add them to the project bin
Then select File >> New >> Blank File
Select background color White (or whatever you prefer) and add your width and height for your final image (set resolution 72 for web usage or 240 to 300 for printing) then click OK
In the project bin click your first photo and drag it up into the main window on top of your new background.
Click on the move tool and click in the center of the photo and drag to arrange it where you want on the background - you can hold down the shift key to maintain original proportions whilst dragging the corner handles of the bounding box to get the size you want.
Do the same with the next photo (drag it up into the main window) and use the move tool to position it. Then continue with each image.
Finally Click Layer >>Flatten image and save as jpeg. (Save as PSD if you want to preserve the layers for editing again)
N.B. as you add images they get dropped in the center. So you need to use the move tool to drag them apart. Click in the middle of one and move it around, and then the others until you get them positioned as you want.
When you click again with the move tool a bounding box appears around the image and you can drag out the corner handles to re-size your photos. Hold down the shift key when dragging the corner handle and that will maintain the proportions of the original.
Finally click Layer >>Flatten Image and save your collage - you may then want to use the crop tool to cut away any surplus white canvas, and then re-save.

How to make a Beziere path with REC.

I'am tring to follow a flashlight with a particle emmiter. I want to make a beziere path with different points across the timeline using the REC mode. And then attach the particle to the path so it can follow correctly with speed and curves the flashlight. How do i do this?

Kyle,
Presuming you wish to move one circle to snap to another circle at a certain predetermined angle, and you have it placed at a distance at that angle you may (Smart Guides are your friends):
1) Select both circles, and with the Line Segment Tool drag a line from centre to centre (Smart Guides say center when you are at the first one and close enough to the second one);
2) Select the circle to move with the normal Selection Tool, then hover over the spot where the line crosses it (Smart Guides say intersect), then ClickDrag along the line (Smart Guides say path) until you have dragged it to snap to the other circle (Smart Guides say intersect).
This works whether the circles are beside each other or one is inside the other.
When moving vertically or horizontally, there is no need for the line, and you can just ClickDrag by the relevant Anchor Point.
