How to set the duration of each pic in a slideshow (and also how to pan and zoom)

I have about 30 pictures I would like to add to a slide show.
When I add them the duration for each picture is set to 6 seconds.
I would like this changed to 4 seconds.
But manually changing the duration of each individual picture, one by one, is a slow and tedious task.
Is there a way of changing the duration of all my pictures at the same time, from 6 seconds to 4 seconds ?
Or can I change a setting so that when I insert my pictures the duration is set to 4 seconds instead of 6 seconds ?
As for the pan and zoom, I have seen the pan and zoom effect but this has a black border around the pictures as they zoom in and out.
For example, when zooming in the picture starts small with a black border all round the edge.
When zooming out the picture ends small with a black border all round the edge.
Is there a way to pan and zoom starting with a full screen when zooming in, and ending with a full screen when zooming out ?
Thereby not showing any ugly black borders.
My Nokia N73 phone can do it !
You can view the pictures as a slide show and when it pans and zooms it looks so much better because it does not show any black borders.
The picture ALWAYS fills the screen even though it is panning and zooming.

If you go to Edit/Preferences, you can set the default duration for each slide. This will affect only those photos you've imported into your project AFTER changing this preference.
You should also turn off the preference for Scale to Frame Size, so your photos do not fill the screen. (And, for efficiency's sake, make sure your source photos are no larger than 1000x750 pixels, per the FAQs at the top of this forum.)
You can also set the duration of each slide by selecting all of the stills you want to include on in your slideshow, right-clicking and selecting the Create Slideshow option.

How do you set the duration of images before importing into a timeline

Is there a way to do a batch import of images where once I place them into a video group I can set the duration of each image automatically by detereming the overall timelime lenght as opposed to manually setting the duration of each image?

I"m not sure you can do this with a video timeline. If you create a frame animation sequence, you can select all the frames and set the duration, then convert it to a video timeline. Not the best answer, but I think it will work.

How to set the File Path to run a javascript using Plugin Code?

Hi All,
Im new to Indesign Plugin Development.Can any one help me out with my problem.
What i want to do is to run a javascript using Plugin Code.When i went through this forum i was able to find out that i should use the IscriptRunner Class to automate this.I could also figure out that the Member Function to use is "CanHandleFile" &"RunFile".
The first parameter in CanHandleFile & RunFile Member Function is to specify the path of the JavaScript File i suppose!I could also find out that IDFile has to used to set the file path Information.
But im clueless how to set the Javascript FilePath using IDFile.Can any one help me how to do this?Any Code Snippets Please?
Waiting for reply.
Thanks

Hi, Andreas Can you explain this in detail? I found it in your post before. The content of elements are returned through the Characters callback function: From ISaxContentHandler.h: /** Receives character data The parser will call this method to report each chunk of character data. SAX parsers may return all contiguous character data in a single chunk, or they may split it into several chunks. But all characters in any single event must come from the same external entity so the Locator provides useful information. Note some parsers will report whitespace using the IgnorableWhitespace() method rather than this one (validating parsers must do so). @param Chars The characters from the XML document. */ virtual void Characters(const PMString& chars) = 0; What i have done is implement my own SAXContentHandlerServiceBoss, and in my file XXXSAXContentHandler.cpp, I override the fonctions StartElement, EndElement, and Characters() like below: I add the PMString xmlData to collect the file content: class XXXSAXContentHandler : public CSAXContentHandler { void XXXSAXContentHandler::Characters(const WideString& chars) { xmlData.Append(chars); } void XXXSAXContentHandler::StartElement(const WideString& uri, const WideString& localname, const WideString& qname, ISAXAttributes* attrs) { xmlData.Append("<"); xmlData.Append(localname); xmlData.Append(">"); } void XXXSAXContentHandler::EndElement(const WideString& uri, const WideString& localname, const WideString& qname) { xmlData.Append("</"); xmlData.Append(localname); xmlData.Append(">"); } } and in my program, I use the code below to call the fonction I overrided, but I dont know how I can get the String xmlData I defined in the XXXSAXContentHandler.cpp InterfacePtr<IK2ServiceRegistry> serviceRegistry(gSession, UseDefaultIID()); InterfacePtr<IK2ServiceProvider> xmlProvider(serviceRegistry->QueryServiceProviderByClassID(kXMLParserService, kXMLParserServiceBoss)); InterfacePtr<ISAXServices> saxServices(xmlProvider, UseDefaultIID()); InterfacePtr<ISAXContentHandler> saxHandler(::CreateObject2<ISAXContentHandler>(kXXXSAXContentHandlerServiceBoss)); saxHandler->Register(saxServices); bool16 parseFailed = saxServices->ParseStream(readStream, saxHandler); Can you give me any help? Thanks and regards!

How to set the frame size?

Hi,
Can some one show me how to set the frame size in this program? History: I have created a window and added a button but its to small. So I want to increase the size of the frame to at least 600X400 pixel.
private static void showGUI() {
        //Create and set up the window.
        JFrame frame = new JFrame("ButtonDemo");
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        //Create and set up the content pane.
        Main newContentPane = new Main();
        newContentPane.setOpaque(true); //content panes must be opaque
        frame.setContentPane(newContentPane);
        //Display the window.
        frame.pack();
        frame.setVisible(true);
    }It would be nice if you could show me how to do it.
Thank you very much for reading this.

Simply adding
frame.setSize(new Dimension(600,400));to the end of your code should work perfectly.Or, if you want to do it correctly, .setPreferredSize() on your frame before you .pack() it. The default layout manager for JFrame is BorderLayout, which uses the preferredSize of each component to calculate sizes during the .pack() call.

I set the duration of a clip and iMovie sets it to something else. So I try to set all stills to same length and iMovie sets them all to a different interval. Now I have a movie much longer than intended. ?!?!

Well, the title of the question pretty much says it all.

How to set the coupling (AC or DC) of a PXI spectrum analyzer?

I have a client that asked me the following question.
At this time (today is a holiday in Canada), I do not have additional information as for which PXI module is used.
I suspect that it is one of the PXI-5660 series (5665 maybe?).
Does anyone have experience with this module? And how to set the AC / DC coupling?
Thanks

Found it.
For LabVIEW versions 8.2 and older, it is through a standard dll call.
Newer versions have the option available through a property node.

How do you set the duration for multiple stills in iMovie 2013?

How do you set the duration for multiple stills in iMovie 2013?
Before upgrading to the latest version of iMovie last month, I was able to set the duation of all of the stills included in an iMovie project at one time by clicking the apply to all still box in the adjustment pop up. That option is no longer apparent. If it is available I cannot find it, and I have tried several different ways to accomplish it. I have tried the iMovie help section and can find nothing to help.
Apple, do I really have to adjust close to 500 pictures to a 5 second duration individually???
REALLY??!!

...why wouldnt people want that level of accuracy when animating, especially when working to music at a specific duration?
Because often people are animating to words or beats in the music. Music is rarely performed with a computer-precise beat and tempo. Musicians aren't robots: they swing the beat sometimes. They use rubato. They change tempo. They change time signatures. As a result, you have to FIND those words and beats. It's not a situation where you can say, "There! I've found the duration of one beat! Now it's easy to find the rest of them!"
If you try it, you will be very disappointed.
Try finding the precise end of a piece of music that fades or ends on a big chord with a ring-out. You'll see that it's trial-and-error: what's the point where it becomes inaudible? It depends on how high your speakers are turned up. You might have them way up, you set an end point for the layer, and then you do a RAM Preview at a more reasonable volume. You might say, "Hey! The music ends before the layer ends!"... but you KNOW you set the layer's out point when the audio file goes silent.
AE has layer markers that can be used on an audio layer to mark beats, words, etc. They come in very handy.
I guess it comes down to this: because AE can do so much different stuff, there are very few automated procedures. Oh, Adobe tries with effects that convert audio levels to keyframes, but they're not 100% reliable... especially on something like a capella choral works. For true accuracy, you need find the timings yourself.
If you want something simpler, try a different application. But be prepared for lower level of accuracy.

How to set the transition duration of a slide in keynote with applescript

hi
how to set the transition duration of a slide in keynote with applescript
i made an applescript script which converts a numbers file to a keynote presentation

you can send keystrokes to invoke menu commands via shortcuts but as for transition time not sure. You've check the dictionary right? Scripting support is very limited in KN.

How to set the resource_limit parameter to each user

how to set the resource_limit initialization parameter to each user.
it says like this;
You must modify the RESOURCE_LIMIT initialization parameter. After you assign profiles to users, the Oracle database
enforces the limits only when the RESOURCE_LIMIT parameter is set to TRUE. Therefore, you modify the RESOURCE_LIMIT initialization parameter to enforce the resource limits defined within each user's profile.
alter system set resource_limit=true;
if doing like this is it ok. ????
Assume im logged as user "SYS". so if i use this command, will it alter the resource_limit parameter for this user SYS only OR for the entire database..... (for all other user)

The RESOURCE_LIMIT parameter only enables resource limits that are defined in profiles.
The DEFAULT profile, by default, is UNLIMITED for all resources.
You should create a custom profile and set the limits you need. The next step would be to assign that profile to the users whom you want to limit. Other users in other profiles (or in the DEFAULT profile) would not have any limits enforced.
See the documentation on CREATE PROFILE.

How do I set the length of each clip?

I have just begun trying to build a video with Premiere Elements 10
I have created many videos with Windows Movie Maker..found it boring for Effects etc.that's why I have this new software.
Now my question is ..How do I set the time for each clip?
I like to add a clip that goes with each lyric in the song.
Thanks.

Welcome to the forum.
As Steve points out, that is "editing."
One can use either of two Tools in PrE, to Trim the Clip to suit.
First, one can Dbl-click on the Clip in the Project Panel to open it in the Source Monitor, which looks a bit like the Program Monitor, but it has the In & Out Point settings. When that Clip has been Trimmed, as needed in the Source Monitor, just drag it to the Timeline.
Or, one can drag the Clip to the Timeline, and then click+drag on the Head of the Clip to set its In Point, and on the Tail, to set the Out Point.
Good luck,
Hunt

How to set the gain and input coupling for each channel on a NI 4462 DaQ card?

I've seen a few examples in how to set the gain for NI 4462, but none tell me how to chose the channel I wish to set this gain. Also the same problem with input coupling
Does anyone know how to set the gain and input coupling for each individual channel?

HELP !!! How can I set the size of each component separately

Please tell me, when adding components (a mix of
labels , buttons etc.) on a container (swing), how can I set the size
of each component separately.
for example:
the code here has a mix of button and a grid that is actually another JPanel. Its a part of a bigger
program. When running the grid is cut (not seen in its full size).
So, please try to anser also about the specific acse of frame contining another frame in it , and the interior should be right sized.
The relevant part of the code:
=========================================
public class Reversi extends JFrame {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Reversi ourGame = new Reversi();
public Reversi() {
super("Grid Reversi");
setSize(new Dimension(300, 300));
setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
Grid g = new Grid(); // the grid was built at another part..
ReversiGame ourGame = new ReversiGame();
JButton b;
JFrame f = new JFrame("Hello Java");
f.setSize(new Dimension(300, 300));
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
Container c = f.getContentPane();
c.add(g,BorderLayout.NORTH );
c.add(b = new JButton("Hola"), BorderLayout.CENTER);
//f.pack();
f.show();

BorderLayout chooses the sizes of each of the components added to it. Choose a different layout manager (or set the placement/size manually with a 'null' layout)

How to change the duration of a sequence of stills all at once

Hi.
I know how to change the duration of one still, but changing the duration of many seems elusive. I've gone to the Help menu and typed "Duration." That points me to the menu where I would change the duration of one still.
Thanks for your help!
Roxane

edit:
For items already in the timeline, Select the each item in the timeline, right click and select "change speed" from the popup menu. You can not change the duration of a group of slides, only one at a time.
To change images that are already imported but not in the timeline, there are two ways to go - the brute force method and the item by item method.
Brute Force: Delete the stills from the Browser, change the duration of still setting in User Preferences>Editing to what you want, then reimport the stills. They will come in with the new duration. Changing the User Preference setting only affects stills imported after the change, it has no effect on material already in the Browser.
Item By Item: Go to the still in the Browser and change the duration for it. Right click on the time and copy it. Select the next still image time, paste the new time in, rinse and repeat. If you have a lot of stills and they are well organized (ie all in the same folder), the brute force is probably faster.
