How to place a generator in Effects favorites bin?

In Tom's manual (page 152) he writes : "you can put any transitions, video or audio, any effects, or even a generator in Favorites". I have tried placing a generator, like color or text, but have been unable to. How is it done please? Keith

Thank you very much skalicki. That was easy! I appreciate your quick reply.
Is it possible to save a modified generator as a favorite too? I'm thinking, if I have a colour matte or style of text that I want to use consistently in a sequence, is it possible to capture that and keep reusing it?
Best wishes, Keith

  • How to place the generated index topic

    I have a requirement to create index pages from a catalog that is generated completely (using javascript) from a xml data source dynamically using placeXML functionality of InDesign.
    I created a place holder (a separate page with a textFrame) in my template (.indt file) and used text in between some tags (example: <ix>sometext to be indexed</ix>) and generated the topic thro' script (used grep).
    I am able to invoke the "generateIndex" menu action using the following script and it works thro' ExtendScript ToolKit but the same is not working if I execute the script using the SOAP client to the InDesign Server.
    app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.NEVER_INTERACT;
    var indexAction = app.scriptMenuActions.itemByID(78084);
    indexAction.invoke(); 
    The following errors occur.
    UserInteractionLevels is undefined
    Object does not support scriptMenuActions property
    Does anyone have any other ideas to achieve the same, please help!
    I appreciate your help and thank you!

    Hi,
    I found the solution. There is a method for the Index object named "generate" and I invoked to generate the index.

  • How do you get more free effects to use in Final Cut pro x?

    I am looking for a safe free place to download more effects that I can use on my videos in Final cut pro x that include effects that aren't just limited to the colors of the video. I also hope that the place will have clear instructions on how to download them onto final cut pro x. If you know of a place like this let me know, thank you!

    fcp.co is my go to place for transitions and effects. Most are between $20 and $50 and because they have many effect in each are well worth the money spent. My favorites are Pixel Studios and Lucas, both purchased through FX Factory. Look at the examples and demo videos before you buy.
    Good luck!

  • How do I create a splitting effect when I make a scene "glitch"?

    This is probably quite simple, but I am still very new to the program so I appreciate your help in advance. I am working with after effects CC on a MacBook Pro.
    I am working on a music video and I can't seem to find any answer on how to create a specific "glitching" effect.
    This scene from the Ring has a perfect example:
    http://youtu.be/hpb2-ZOzc_o
    I want to replicate many of the effects used on Samara crawling out of the well in that video, but the MAIN one I need help with is how to make an image "split" the way hers does. It looks like copies of her are stretched out across the screen for a second, then come back into place when the glitch is over.
    How do I make a person's image split like that?
    I have Video Copilot's Twitch effect if that can help, but whatever works is just fine.
    Thank you so much!

    Don't try and pull this off with a single layer. Break down the shot and make each element a separate layer then composite them. At this point how many layers do you see:
    I see the background shot, the fill for the TV and a rotoed shot of the girl climbing out of the TV. None of it is particularly difficult but it is impossible without layers.
    There are some Bad TV presets that will get you started with the tv distortion. Again, it's just a matter of layers and not necessarily a single plug-in. Noise, distortion, blend modes, color, and other effects combined to create the effect.

  • How to modify customer generated DataSource?

    Hi Experts,
    I have a DataSource "1ZICM_DOCSE" which currently extracts some of the fields from source table "ZICM_DOCSE". After some investigation, I discover that some necessary fields from the table are missing in the extraction structure.
    Questions:
    1. Since the name of the DS starts with 1 (SAP namespace), I supposed that it is a business content DS. However, I could not find it in RSA5 but only in RSA6. Why is it so? Is it a customer generated DS?
    2. In RSA2, it shows that the extraction method is "F1 Function Module (Complete Interface)". When I double click on the extractor "ZICM_EXTR_DOCSE", ABAP editor is shown with the header indicating "This file has been generated. Never change it manually!". How do we generate an extractor in source system?
    3. In this case, how can I modify the extraction structure to include more fields from the source table?
    Thanks in advance for the effort!
    Regards,
    Meng

    Hi Venkatesh, Hi Durgesh,
    first of all thanks for your reply. However, I could not carry out the procedures mentioned by you and I hope that you can help me clear the doubts
    1. Judging from your input I assume that this DS "1ZICM_DOCSE" is a customer generated DS. Am I right? How is the DS generated? via a standard SAP program?
    2. When I go to RSO2 and try to display the DS, I get following message.
    DataSource 1ZICM_DOCSE is extracted using functional module ZICM_EXTR_DOCSE
    Message no. RJ042
    Diagnosis
    Data from DataSource 1ZICM_DOCSE has been extracted using function module ZICM_EXTR_DOCSE.
    If you edit and save the DataSource by maintaining generic extraction, extraction no longer takes place
    using this function module, but is performed by a database view, a transparent table, a functional area
    of SAP query, or a self-defined extraction module.
    If 1ZICM_DOCSE is included in the deliverd SAP Content, you can activate extraction using function module
    ZICM_EXTR_DOCSE again by transferring this Content with transaction RSA5 or the IMG.
    I cannot display as well as change the DS in RSO2.
    3. Since the FM is generated, why should we change it? The changes will be overwritten once the FM is generated again, right?
    Looking forward to your reply!
    Thanks,
    Meng

  • How can I add a jquery effect (parallax bacground effect) in a fluid grid layout? I

    How can I add a jquery effect (parallax bacground effect) in a fluid grid layout? I download it from the web (the effect), I use it in a blank html page and all works correctly. Using it in a  fluid grid and no images appears and no effect.. why?  In the Fluid grid layout I add the .html information inside the container.. and I add the css information in first place.
    I download it from: http://www.jqueryrain.com/2012/02/jquery-scrolldeck-parallax-plugin/

    I've never tried to combine them.  But to be honest, I don't think jQuery Parallax is going to work in FGLayouts b/c Parallax backgrounds are not built on a mobile first approach.  For best results, Parallax requires a min-width of 960px which isn't mobile friendly.

  • How can I create a scrolling effect where when the user scrolls down the image will blur out?

    How can I create a scrolling effect where when the user scrolls down the image will blur out?

    Hi there,
    You can create a scroll motion where the image will fade out on scrolling, you need to use the Opacity tab under Scroll Effects Panel.
    If you particularly need the image to be blur out, then you need to edit that image in any image editing program and make one copy of that image as blurred, then place both images (actual and blurred) on that page and use scroll motion or fade option to replace images.

    How to display or generate PDF417 barcode dynamically in PDF form? I am using Acrobat XI Professional and there is a Bar Code Field in the same through which I generated the same. But I want to generate the same dynamically.

    What do you mean by dynamically? When yo set up a 2D bar code field you specify which field name/value pairs you want to include, along with other parameters. But be aware that they won't work with Reader unless you Reader-enable the document with LiveCycle Reader Extensions and include the bar code usage right. It will work with Acrobat Standard/Pro.

    The advantage goes to FCP7 if you allow that it can copy and paste filters, audio and video, transformations, and other attributes separately.
    You can do that in FCPX too, as all the things you cited are listed separately in the inspector.
    Here's a little gotcha. Let's say you've color corrected a few clips and you've applied an effect to one and want to paste it the other clips. You switch off color correction and copy the clip. You select the other clips and paste effects. What do you think happens? The effect is applied, but the color correction is applied as well, only it's switched off as it was in the first clip, so all the color correction on the other clips is lost. Fun, eh?
    I'll try to replicate your gotcha - but no, that doesn't sound like fun at all!

  • How to place one column under another column in obiee report?

    Hi all,
    I am new to obiee, so need some help from obiee experts. Can anyone tell me how to place one column data under another column in obiee report?
    i need the report to be as below
    category total_students Course_enrollment Test_attended pass_test
    total N % N % N %
    all students ##### ## ## ## ## ## ##
    Ethnicity
    Asian ###### ## ## ## ## ## ##
    African American ###### ## ## ## ## ## ##
    white ######
    Filipino ######
    Gender
    Male ##### ## ## ## ## ## ##
    Female ##### ## ## ## ## ## ##
    and similarly for other columns
    where ethnicity, gender are columns in the table and Course_enrollment, Test_attended, pass_test are calculated columns.
    Please help me to create a report as above if anyone knows how to do it.
    Edited by: Shailaja on Jul 19, 2010 12:23 AM

    Two ideas I can think of:
    1) Create multiple pivot tables and then display them one under the other
    2) Create multiple measure columns such as "male_amt", "female_amt", "white_amt", "asian_amt", "black_amt", etc. for all the columns you need. Then you could simple stack them in a single pivot table.
    Option #2 might give you the prettiest results - but also requires a lot more maintenance (for instance, if you reclassify ethnic groups, you'd have to go through the reports to add additional metric columns).
    Hope this helps,

  • How do I add a video effect to multiple clips in my timeline at once?

    How do I add a video effect to multiple clips in my timeline at once?

    or... you can command click to select all the clips you want to apply the effect to, then double click the effect in the Effects browser. (PS - you can't simply drag and drop an effect on multiple clip selections, the effect will only be applied to the clip you drop it on -- but double clicking the effect will apply it to all selected clips at once.)
