How to make a text "slide"

I am creating a DVD that has several short movies on it. In addition to the movies, i would like to put a slide that has a bunch of informational text, set against a background. I tried doing it by creating the text slide in Powerpoint and saving as a movie. iDVD said that was an unsupported format even though it is a .mov file. So I opened the slide movie in Quicktime and exported it as a Quicktime movie. (Sounds redundant, doesn't it?) Then I was able to add it as a movie in iDVD.
BUT, the only problem is when you open it (the movie) it shows up nicely, but has a lot of flicker when I view it on a TV.
I tried to reduce the flicker by importing it into Final Cut Pro, but the file was not supported. So i imported into iMovie, then exported, then imported into FCP. I added deinterlace and flicker filters and exported it. Then when I added it to the iDVD, the text looked completely choppy and ugly!!!
Any suggestions?

Create a 640x480 image. iDVD will do the conversion from computer pixel to NTSC "pixel" for you. If you start with 720x480, the image will end up squished or maybe it is stretched, but either way, iDVD expects 640x480 as "native" input and will do the conversion for TV sets behind the scenes.

I am making a slideshow. How do you make a text slide?

I am making a slideshow. How do you make a text slide? I have not found a tutorial.

If you want to superimpose text on a slide: simply click on the text button on the tool bar
If you want to have a blank slide with just text: create a black (or whatever colour you prefer) slide and use that behind the text.

How to make a text "drawer" in iWeb

Does anyone know how to make a text "drawer" in iWeb? What I mean is when you click on a hyperlink to read more text, but instead of opening up a new page, it makes the text appear below the link on the same page.

Anything fancy with iWeb has to be done in the HTML Snippet or after publishing the page.
Find the code for the drawer, apply it and show us the result.
Perhaps not the drawer you had in mind but this is something near:

I cannot figure out how to make the text larger on an incoming email. The finger method doesn't work and I cannot find any toolbar with which to do it. I could find nothing in settings also. Plese help and thank you.

Hi there,
Download a piece of software called TinkerTool - that might just solve your problem. I have used it myself to change the system fonts on my iMac. It is software and not an app.
Good wishes,

Hello, experiment with Object - Field tab. Do you have your text field with "allow multiple lines" checked? I guess so. And what about the field format? Plain text or Rich text? Please try:)) Regards, Otto

How to make indented text in Muse

How to: make indented text in Muse, like a list with bullits

I read on another post that you can do ALT 0149 (WIN) and it will create a bullet in Muse. I tried ALT+0149 and then ALT then 0149 and neither one created a bullet so I must not be understanding the key shortcuts to create the bullet.
The above video is not captioned (I'm deaf) so I don't understand how he's creating the bullets. Can someone explain what I'm doing wrong?
PS - when videos are made, it would be nice if you brought some kind of graphic on saying (for example) "Press the [whatever] key" so deaf people can see what's happening.

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.

Anyone know how to make vertical text in a table in keynote?

anyone know how to make vertical text in a table in keynote?

Just to add a bit more about this question. I have seen in other related questions that this feature (vertical text) is not available in (apparently) the whole iWork09. someone even said that it should be asked to the developers, so they include this feature in iWork10. I find this issue a bit sad. This feature has been present in msOffice since a while, and at least for me, this is quite important for my work. It is also apparently not possible to have different page orientation in the same document, meaning portrait and landscape, so one can have wide tables in a whole page, for example. If this is true, it is again sad, and I just cannot understand why such a basic feature is not available in an already 09 version. I am using only the trial version of iWork, but already in the first day I have discovered that I actually cannot do what I was used to. Again sadly I (and many others I guess) will have to stick to Office until the mac software is fully developed.

How can i make only text slider? Not picture use

Hi!
I want to text slider. 1 group 3 items has 5 text group changing fade effects?
Thank you?

This should do it ...
1. Under widgets ... place a Blank Composition widget onto your Muse page
2. Create a normal text box (however big you want) and fill that with the required text you want shown for your 1st slide
3. Select the 1st (small thumbnail) box underneath the slideshow ... there's 3 shown by default
4. Click and drag the text box, you created, onto the Blank Composition widget ... you will notice the widget box will give a BLUE outline ... this is showing you that you are adding the text box to the Blank Composition widget ...
5. Center or place your text box accordingly ... change your Font, colours, formatting, etc to the way you want it
6. Repeat this for however many text slides you need ... but select a different thumbnail box for each slide ... to add more than the 3 boxes shown just click the little '+' sign next to the thumnail boxes
7. Under the properties panel for the Blank Composition (you know that small Blue circle and white arrow icon?) select Fading under Transistions
8. Preview and edit your slide show accordingly
That should be it ... you can add most things in the compositon widgets ... I actually use the TEXT option to show testimonials ...
cheers,

How To Make Translucent Text In Photoshop?

Hi, I was wondering, how would I make translucent text like this: http://imgur.com/6RzdZge on top of an image In photoshop? I am a bit new so step by step instructions would be awesome. Thanks!
EDIT: I just realized that this is probably not in the right section! SORRY!

This is not the effect you show, although your example shows a mirror image of text.
There are a lot of stuff you can do with PS, and everyone at one time starts at zero. But today there are lots of online tutorials and YouTube how to videos to guide you. When stuck with specific questions here is the place to answer. Setting down with a 1 through 30 steps is too time consuming.
