How to set the icon preview of a movie

I have my movies folder set to show big icon preview of each of my movie, it looks great but I cant set which frame of the movie is used for the preview. The result is that I have a lot of my movie that have a black or not relevent icon preview. Is there any way of setting the icon preview manually or am I stuck with those preview?
Thanks for any help you can provide me!

HI,
Open Preview/Preferences and select the General tab.
You can make a selection there but unfortunately I don't think Preview supports a connected monitor.
But don't give up hope. Go here and post in the Apple Technologies forum. Perhaps a Terminal guru can offer a command to use to do this for you.

How to set the icon for the entire application with JFrame.setIconImage

I set the icon on the main frame using JFrame.setIconImage(). The icon is shown properly in the main frame.
If more JFrames are opened from the main frame, the newly opened JFrames also show the icon.
However if JDialogs are opended, in some cases the icon set on the main frame is shown and in other cases the coffee cup.
What is JFrame.setIconImage() expected to do? Setting the icon for a single JFrame or the entire application?
How can I set the icon for the entire application?
How can I set the icon for JDialogs?
Thank you

In order for your dialogs to use the same icon as the frame, you must parent the dialogs to the frame which has the custom icon.
See the following thread for more information: http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=57&thread=362542

How to set the icon pathin my app running in a webserver

i have this code but the icon will not appear. but in my desktop it is fine

Whare is your png file is located?
You might also need to use getResource method in the Class Loader instead of directly specifying the path to the constructor

How to change the icon for print dialog?

Hello,
I have a JTable, and with the print() method, I'm able to bring up the Print dialog and successfully print the contents of the table. Example:
myTable.print( JTable.PrintMode.FIT_WIDTH, myHeaderFormat, myFooterFormat );This works great, but one small detail I'd like to change is the icon in the top-left corner of the dialog. The icon is currently the default Java coffee cup icon, while the rest of my application uses my custom icon. I couldn't find any documentation in the API or tutorials that Java has listed which shows how to change the icon, so I'm not even sure if it's possible (but why shouldn't it be?).
My question is this: Is it possible to change the default icon in the print dialog? Or do I have to either make my own print dialog somehow, or use a third-party print dialog?
Thanks

tjacobs01: Appreciate the assistance (despite your sass). I've already searched the API, tutorials, and this forum. I'm already well aware of the setIconImage() method for JFrame -- after all, that's how I set the icon for my other frames as I previously mentioned. However, I want to set the icon for the print dialog called from the print() method of JTable.
How would I use setIconImage() for the print() method of JTable? The print() method returns a boolean value, not a JFrame, so I'm just not sure how to implement what you're saying.
Thanks

"I would like to know how to set the default view for the columns. Somewhere I read it could be done in by music icon under Library. Can't find it. Thanks

"I would like to know how to set the default view for the columns that are shown in iTunes. Every time I open it, I have to either go to the options, or right-click to get the pop-up options, and delete "rating" and add "composer." I'd really like to just do it once and be done with it." Somewhere I read you could do this by clicking on the Music icon under LIBRARY then arramge the columns. Trouble is, I can't find a Musi Folder or icon in my user library.
Any help would be appreiated. OSX 10.9.2 iTunes version 11.1.5 Thanks!!! CW!

From the iTunes menu bar try View>Show View Options. Make sure what you want to see is checked and what you don't is unchecked. You can do this (may need to do this) for any playlists, your main Library, etc.
Good luck

How to set the window frame icon of javafx.scene.control.Alert ?

Hi,
I am looking into using the new Java 8u40 Alert Dialogs (javafx.scene.control.Alert) and I am struggling with setting custom (application) icons for the window / stage.
I mean that icon, which appears in the upper left corner (on Windows OS) of the window frame, which you can set for normal stages with
javafx.stage.Stage.getIcons()
Similarily I want to apply a custom stylesheet to the Alert.
How can I do this?
Is it really only this way?
((Stage)alert.getDialogPane().getScene().getWindow()).getIcons().add(...) ?

I think you already have the recommended way to set an icon for Java 8u40. Maybe some future Java version might add some additional API to make it a little bit less clunky, but for now, just go with the same code you have:
((Stage)alert.getDialogPane().getScene().getWindow()).getIcons().add(...) ?
It is the same technique used in:
javafx - How do you set the icon of a Dialog control Java FX/Java 8 - Stack Overflow
and in makery's dialog tutorial:

How to set an icon of a Button in ActionScript ?

A need to create at runtime some buttons and set their icons.
I found a problem to do that in ActionScript. In MXML is easy
to set the icon just use a syntax like this: <mx:Button
label="some text" icon="images/ok.png"/>
But in ActionScript how I can set the icon ?
I need to create the icon by a path passed as a parameter.
Example:
The user want to create a button with a label and an icon so
call a method like this (that return and instance of Button):
createButton("Update","images/update.png");
Thank at all for the help.

it doesn't do anything, stays at the same placeIt's all about context here and there are still many unknowns here that can effect your result and that you have not told us or shown us. My suggestion to you is to consider posting an SSCCE (Short, Self Contained, Correct (Compilable), Example, a condensed program similar to your current program in that it demonstrates the problem at hand, but is the smallest bit of code that still compiles and has no extra code that's not relevant to your problem. For more info on SSCCEs please look here:
[http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html|http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html]
Also, when posting your code, please use code tags so that your code will retain its formatting and be readable. To do this, you can will need to paste already formatted code into the forum, highlight this code, and then press the "code" button at the top of the forum Message editor prior to posting the message. You may want to click on the Preview tab to make sure that your code is formatted correctly. Another way is to place the tag [code] at the top of your block of code and the tag [/code] at the bottom, like so:
[code]
// your code block goes here.
// note the differences between the tag at the top vs the bottom.
[/code]or
{code}
// your code block goes here.
// note here that the tags are the same.

How I change the icon for iTunes songs?

When I drag iTunes songs onto my desktop the icon is white with a gray iTunes icon. How can change this icon for all of my iTunes songs?

Thanks Patrick. I used Control-Click on the actual audio file on my desktop opened the Show View Options menu and turned off the icon preview option. That changed my icons from gray with a white background to red with a white background which is exactly what I wanted. You pointed me in the right direction. Appreciate it.

How to set the out point beyond 9.95 seconds???

how to set the out point in Motion 5 beyond 9.95 seconds???

First you need to make sure your project is long enough then you can adjust the play range (in/out). To make sure the project is long enough:
1. From the project properties (command-J) go to the Duration field and enter a new duration.
2. Click on the down arrow icon to the right of the current time, there is an option to show the project duration. Once set to this you can double click the number and type in a new project duration. I'd recommend setting it back to show current time when done.
3. Of course you can also change the duration of a project when it is first created, in the project browser.
Once you're sure you have a long enough project you can adjust the in and out range. You then use the zoom controls in the bottom of the timeline to show more of the timeline and adjust the play range as needed. There's lots more about project and play range duration adjustments in the documentation: http://help.apple.com/motion/mac/5.1/

How to change the Icon for a JFileChooser ?

Has anyone figured out how to change the icon for an instance of JFileChooser from the coffee cup to something else?
I'm on 1.4
Thanks,
Ken

Never mind. I figured it out.
You have to use an instance of JFrame in the call to showXxxxDialog(Component c). Set the icon of the JFrame to what you want the JFileChooser's icon to be.

Dynamically Setting the icon in a LinkButton

I am using several link button controls as navigation devices in my app. When the LinkButtons are created they are all given four icon properties like so:
     upIcon="@Embed(source='images/Off_1.gif')"
     icon="@Embed(source='images/Off_1.gif')"
     overIcon="
@Embed(source='images/Over_1.gif')"
     downIcon="@Embed(source='images/Sel_1.gif')"
The second LinkButton would have the same properties as shown except it would have it's own set of GIF's. Because these are navigation buttons in my app I want to be able to click on a LinkButton and have it's downIcon GIF become the icon GIF. That way it looks like the button has stayed selected and gives the end user some visual indication of where they are in the app.
Problem is how do I set the state of the icon for a LinkButton and make it show??? I have tried this AS code but it hasn't worked... It doesn't generate an error... it just has no visual effect.
    LinkButton_1_ID.setStyle('icon', 'images/Sel_1.gif');
So if you have any ideas on how to change the icon on a LinkButton please let me know. Thanks in advance for your help!!!

You are probably better off just using a Button with custom skins.
But if you do want to swap out the icon, you'll need to embed the asset as a Class:
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
    [Embed(source="assets/images/pie.jpg")]
    [Bindable]
    public var Pie:Class;
    [Embed(source="assets/images/bar.jpg")]
    [Bindable]
    public var Bar:Class;
     private function init():void
        myLogo.source = Pie;
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:Image id="myLogo" click="myLogo.source = Bar"/>
