How To make Openoffice look nicer in xfce4??

Hi
I´ve been using openoffice2 for month in xfce4. it always looked nice. The same like in kde or gnome.
But since couple of days it looks like crap. Like an old GTK1 application.
I really don´t know what the cause for this was / is.
Anyone an idea?
thanks

I subscribed for itunes imatch - it works perfectly on my i-pad and iPhone - however on my macbook - my iTunes can no longer find my songs - i don't know how to make it look to the cloud to play my music

i subscribed for itunes imatch - it works perfectly on my i-pad and iPhone - however on my macbook - my iTunes can no longer find my songs - i don't know how to make it look to the cloud to play my music - i think it keeps trying to find on the external harddrive where i used to keep my music

Of course iTunes is looking for the music on the external HDD. Enabling iTunes Match does not magically change the location of the iTunes library to the cloud.
To play the music either plug the external HDD back into your computer or create a new, empty library to use for streaming the iTM content. The latter can be accomplished by holding down the Option key when launching iTunes, choosing "create library" then enabling iTunes Match on the new library. DO NOT have iTunes scan your HDD for music.

How to make website look correct in Safari, Firefox, and Chrome?

Hello there. I'm working on a website which was inherited to me by someone who died. So I am left with all of his coding which is about 4 years old. Now I'm working on positioning of the website and i've found that the only browser the website looks like it's supposed to is Safari and I can't for the life of me figure out how to make it look right in all the browsers and on a phone or tablet. It might be easier if I started from scratch but unfortunately I don't get that luxury. Please help me.
Here's a link...MuseumOfNaturalistory.com

I dont understand what some of these errors are asking of me. For instance, this one...
if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)

This message may appear in several cases:
You tried to include the "<" character in your page: you should escape it as "<"
You used an unescaped ampersand "&": this may be valid in some contexts, but it is recommended to use "&", which is always safe.
Another possibility is that you forgot to close quotes in a previous tag.
That's the way the code has to be in order to function. What does it want from me?
And then here....
Line 71, Column 5: an attribute value must be a literal unless it contains only name characters </div>✉You have used a character that is not considered a "name character" in an attribute value. Which characters are considered "name characters" varies between the different document types, but a good rule of thumb is that unless the value contains only lower or upper case letters in the range a-z you must put quotation marks around the value. In fact, unless you have extreme file size requirements it is a very very good idea to always put quote marks around your attribute values. It is never wrong to do so, and very often it is absolutely necessary.
Line 71, Column 5: character "<" is not allowed in the value of attribute "id" </div>✉It is possible that you violated the naming convention for this attribute. For example, id and name attributes must begin with a letter, not a digit.
I have absolutely no clue what it is asking of me. Doesn't it have to be that way? Also why when I go to "Line 71" that isn't where this actual code is? Is there some special way to decipher this?

How to make HD look like 4K

I found this article rather interesting. If I had to try and make a silk purse out of a sow's ear, I would read this one again.
RedShark News - How to make HD look like 4K

I'd forgotten about RedShark in general ... thanks for the heads-up.
And the point about the "impression" being at times more important than the reality (especially if not well handled) is well taken. Working professional stills for many years now ... I've had large prints that even at close inspection looked much cleaner, sharper, and less noisy than other photog's made who had "larger" sensors ... but did their post not as righteously as I did. How you set up & shoot the image/s in the first place matters ... as does how you handle your post & output.
Craft matters ...

How to make it look like the actors are watching TV

Hi,
I am looking to add an effect in Adobe Premiere Pro CC to make it look like the actors are watching TV in the dark. Just a soft pulsating, bluish-white light that may vary throughout. Does anyone know how to do this? I've tried scouring the internet but haven't found much. I'm a beginner for sure, but trying to learn!
Thanks so much,
-Andy

In the effects panel type "light" in the search box. This will bring up all the lighting effects in Pr. Adjusr/Lighting or Stylize/Strobe might work for you. There are a lot of adjustments you can key in until you find what suits your needs.

How to make it look like the camera is following a zig zagging line

I have an animated video where a person clicks a button and an arrow appears coming out of the right side of the computer. I would like to make it look like the camera follows the arrow as it zooms along a zig zag path and eventually ends at another computer. Does anyone know of any good tutorials for this?
Thanks,
Paul

This is just a matter of keyframes for camera position and point of interest.You are probably not going to find a tutorial that exactly matches your project. Try this:
Open up 2 views, one active camera, one top view.
Set a position keyframe for the camera where you want the movement to start.
Drag the point of interest to point at your subject (animated arrow)
Using the top view and setting the CTI (current time indicator) to the end point of the camera move, move the camera's point of interest to the same position as the animated arrow
Still in the top view, move the camera to it's final position
Using the pen tool (keyboard shortcut g) add points to the camera position path and drag them into a zig zag shape using the top view
Selecting the Point of interest in the timeline, adjust the position of the point of interest to follow the arrow as it animates across the screen by moving the CTI and setting new positions.
Another thing you could do would be just to use a lookAt expression for point of interest. This would keep the camera pointed at the arrow.
Hope this helps. Animating a camera is one of the most basic skills an AE artist should have. It takes a bit of practice but it's not hard.

How to make it look like you never bought a movie.

Ok....so....I accidentally bought a really inappropriate movie on iTunes and REALLY need to make it look like I never bought it.........like TOTALLY delete it from my purchase history...I don't care about the money, its just I don't want the movie to be in the cloud anymore! PLEASE HELP! I am freaking out!!!! I want to make it look like I never bough the movie ever! SURELY there is a way to do this.....THANKS!

Make a new account and use that, you will lose your entire history and will need to authorize the new account to play things from the old.
Drastic, but I know of no other way.

How to make a really nice transfer from pal to ntsc...

I'm trying to convert a show I've edited and shot in HDV50i to an NTSC mpeg for use with dvd studio pro. I converted my ref. movie (hdv50i) to an mpeg and I changed the setting to NTSC in compressor but the dvd looks like s##t. And I also tried to open a new timeline in FCP with the setting hdv60i and transfer my clip there but the sound gets out of sync. I of course understand the problem with the different framerates and so on, but is there a way you could do this and make it look good? Maybe another software?

You could also do it as a job chain, meaning use the first job in Compressor to convert to NTSC using Frame Controls. The create a second job from the target output and encode the MPEG-2 on that job. Your basically parsing it into two steps. Using ProRes (HQ) for that first output is a good practice.

Advice on how to make this look up?

Hello everyone.
I was wondering if anyone can give me advice on how to do this to make it the last complex.
I thought up some complex solutions that will work but seem messy in some ways.
I need to create a look up, I'm parsing a file and transforming it based on its field name and field value. If a certain field name and field value is found, I need to create specific subfields. An example is:
say I read in a file and I come across
A class named interface
with a data field DisplayStatus and field type: INTEGER INIT(132)
DisplayStatus INTEGER INIT(132)
Then I need to create a file that looks like this:
DisplayStatus INTEGER INIT(132);
OP 'interface'.'DisplayStatus'
HAS_SUBFIELD NOTIFY;
OP 'interface'.'DisplayStatus'
HAS_SUBFIELD TIMESTAMP;
OP 'interface'.'DisplayStatus'
HAS_SUBFIELD CHANGE;
OP 'interface'..'DisplayStatus'.CHANGE
SUBFIELD_HAS_VALUE (METHODSPEC) (DUIFCRDC) ;
OP 'interface'.'DisplayStatus'
On the other hand, if I run across a field name:
CommandIndicator CHARVAR;
Then I need to create the following in a file:
CommandIndicator CHARVAR;
OP 'interface'.'CommandIndicator'
HAS_SUBFIELD NOTIFY;
So you can see, based on a specific field name, and data type, they have unique data types.
My solution was going to store a text file that contained all the field names, data types and subfields, and just create a map, so based on the field name, it will look up the value which wil be the subfields, but you can see the sub fields can either be 1 line long, or it can be multiple lines long, thats where I'm running into issues.
What type of data structure would I use? a Map<String, List<String>> ? or is that making it more complicated than it ahs to be?

To make sure I understood you correctly:
You have a file like
class classname
fieldname1 DATATYPE1 constraint
fieldname2 DATATYPE2 constraintyou want
OP 'classname'.'fieldname1'.some optional string
some line defined by DATATYPE1
...How would you store "some optional string" in a Map<String, List<String>>?
Do you just replace a special char sequence with 'interface'..'DisplayStatus'?
If so, why not just store the lines in one String including the line breaks, making the list dispensable?
Regarding XML:
I guess he meant that if you had both your source files in xml, you could do what you want via XSL transformation.
But you'll have to google for that yourself. It has been a while since I worked with that.

[SOLVED] How to make URxvt look like default XTerm?

I don't want to install terminus-font or something else. Just want to make XTerm and URxvt look equal.
I prefer URxvt over XTerm for its performance, but default URxvt looks ugly comparing to default XTerm: for example default bitmap font (fixed) is broken whereas it looks beatiful on XTerm.
Also colors in URxvt do not match to those in console and XTerm (which seem to be the same) - highlighted directories, executables, prompt, etc which seem to be darker.
How do I fix it?
Help is appreciated, as always.
Thanks.
Last edited by eruditorum (2012-12-07 09:35:23)

I believe the default xterm fonts are listed in /usr/share/X11/app-defaults/XTerm. I may be wrong but I think you want to specify the urxvt font as:
-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso10646-1
This will be incorrect if you do not have the xorg-fonts-75dpi package installed. If you don't have that package installed, I'm not sure what font is used in its place by either emulator.
WIthout specifying the terminal colors in my ~/.Xdefaults or ~/.Xresources file, I also found the two terminals' colors do not appear the same. I have configured the colors so they are identical in both apps. This excerpt from my .Xdefaults uses the asterisk, *, as a wild card so the colors I have chosen apply to both terminals.

DVI to HMDI - how to make it look better?

I am hooking up my MBP to a Sony 46" Bravia Z LCD through the HMDI connection -
how can you make the external LCD look a little bit better? Seems the MBP picks up the signal and recognizes the Sony screen - but the colors don't look like my MBP screen - you know what I mean?
I suppose this is as good as it gets? Is this how it always looks when connected to a normal TV LCD?
Thanks

Yeah I understand the bit about the ratios, that's not a problem, I am able to tweak it to whatever I want it to fit onto the 16x9 screen -
it's the way it "looks" on the TV compared to what it looks like on my MBP. I'm assuming it's as good it gets on the TV since it is a "TV" and thus is not going to look exactly the same as my MBP, as the TV has its own set of colors and such?
Thanks

Modify .wmf graph in illustrator (make it look nice)

I'm a newbie, just trying to figure out how to edit a .wmf file that is a graph and was generated by a statistical program. I need to visually enhance this graph, making it look more appealing for publication in a manuscript. It's very simple, just need to make rectangles behind the existing text that form the columns in the graph, and shade the rows of the graph to assist the reader to follow the row across the graph. While I can edit the text on the .wmf, I can't get a rectangle to be placed under the existing text unless I lower the opacity of the rectangle which won't work as I need black and white only. I've tried converting the text to rectangle, but the stretching of the text won't be acceptable. What would be the workflow I should attempt to follow to enhance the looks of the document in illustrator? Is there a trick to getting the rectangle to behave? It works just fine if I actually type NEW text in, then place a rectangle, but I'll have to work with the info in the .wmf file - can't re-type it all.

Thank you for your feedback. I am able to open the .wmf file and do things to pretty it up such as change font size, color, move things around, delete lines and other random things. What I really want to be able to do is to take the title of a graph column and put a black rectangle behind the white column title text. When I do this the black rectangle is the only thing that is visible, so I then send it "back", but then I can't see the black rectangle at all. I've set the text forward as well. The only way I've figured a way around this is to create the black rectangle, but then change the opacity to 40% so that the text will show through. This is not acceptable as the requirements for the project demands the titles of the graph be blocked black with white text. I'm not sure how AI translates the .wmf file into AI. It does not appear to be a true text type object, although I can modify font size and font color. I've also tried changing text to rectangle, however this stretches/shrinks the text based on the size of the rectangle. I need a fixed font and fixed size rectangle. Maybe this is a very simple fix, and I've over-complicated it. fingers are crossed that there is a magic fix
I'm on PC. I would insert an image showing what the file looks like raw, then the after edit (done by someone who knows how), but I can't figure out the upload. grr.
Thank you!
