Is it possible to set a default for "Time Span"?

AME seems to default to the Time Span to "Work Area" when rendering AE compositions. Is there any method, either in the app or by preference file hackery, to change this default to "Entire Composition?"
Coming from rendering in AE, this is a major problem for my workflow. You can't save this setting with a preset, like you can in AE, so I have to manually set this on every single comp I render. When I inevitably forget (about half the time or more), I end up with partial renders or having to cancel renders and start them over. Not fun.
I have submitted this as a feature request.

I miss appointments b/c of this too.
And no, Apple does not read these forums UNLESS you comment on how pathetic and Mickey Mouse certain elements of their software is - like no 'default' setting for alarms in iCal, and not being able to resize windows from all edges (vs. the little annoying corner) etc etc.
I hope they fix it with the new software package in Leopard. I'm somewhat afraid it's going to be 'Leper' at first though. We'll see...

    There is no setting in the iPhone to set another default music player. The default is Music. If you are using another application, you are at the mercy of how that application operates as far as what occurs when it stops or errors out. The car is looking for music to play.

    Hi,
    Is it possible to set a default column name to an expression when creating a table?
    For example, I wish to set the default value of a column to read from another table's column and do some arithmetic....is this possible?

    Yes, you can, with trigger Before Insert for Each row

  • How to Set A Default Start Time For New Events In Calendar?

    How to Set A Default Start Time For New Events In Calendar?

    John,
    Thanks for that suggestion - could not get it to work. However, I did manage a different approach. I finally determined the sequence of events in terms of how the various events and listeners fire (I think).
    Basically, the CalendarActivityListener fires, followed by the listener associated with the Calendar object's Create facet, followed finally by the CalendarEventListener - the final is where the TriggerEvent is available and then finally, control is passed to the popup/dialog in the Create facet. So, my approach of trying to set/get the TriggerDate in the user's HTTP session was doomed to failure because it was being get before it had been set :(
    Anyway, I ended up adding a bit of code to the CalendarEvent listener - it grabs the current BindingContext, navigates through the DCBindingContainer to derive an Iterator for the ViewObject which drives the calendar and then grabs the currently active row. I then do a few tests to make sure we're working with a "new" row because I don't want to alter start & end dates associated with an existing calendar entry and then I define the Start and End dates to be the Trigger Date.
    Works just fine. Snippet from the listener follows
    BindingContext bindingContext = BindingContext.getCurrent();+
    *if ( bindingContext != null )    {*+
    DCBindingContainer dcBindings = (DCBindingContainer) bindingContext.getCurrentBindingsEntry();+
    DCIteratorBinding iterator = dcBindings.findIteratorBinding("EventsView1Iterator");+
    Row currentRow = iterator.getCurrentRow();+
    if ( currentRow.getAttribute("StartDate") == null)+
    currentRow.setAttribute("StartDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+
    if (currentRow.getAttribute("EndDate")==null)+
    currentRow.setAttribute("EndDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+
    *}*

  • Is it possible to set the default colours in the swatches palette in Illustrator CS4?

    Is it possible to set the default colours in the swatches palette in Illustrator CS4? What I mean is replace the swatches default colour palette with my own, so that each time I create a new document it comes up with my colours rather than Illustrators.

    You might also consider using color groups with Illustrator. Let me know what you think. It may help you out with projects that use the same color preferences.
    Check out the tutorial here:

  • HT1150 I have two shared printers and I want to be able to select the printer when it is time to print without having to set a default EACH time.  Can I just have a prompt to ask me which printer to use???

    I have two shared printers and I want to be able to select one printer when it is time to print without having to set a default EACH time.  Can I just have a prompt or dialog box that will ask me which printer would you like to use???  The only options I can find are "default" and "Last printer used" which means I must go into the Print & Fax area and change the default EACH time I want to print???  Seems very low tech.....

    In most cases you get this dialog box every time you print. It is called the print dialog and normally when you print, a print dialog appear showing the printer that is to be used. Which printer you see will be based on what you have set in Print & Fax as you mention. But regardless of what you have set there, you still have the option to change the printer via the print dialog.
    If you are using an application that does not show the print dialog, like MS Word and that stupid "print one copy" print icon in the toolbar, then you can often change the action the print icon uses so that the print dialog appears.

  • Is it possible to set a default mfg_organization_id for a responsibility?

    We have a responsibility that only has access to 1 inventory organization as defined by Organization Access. Our users think it is silly that they should have to do a Change Org when there is only one responsibility to choose from. Is there any way to set a default profile value for the mfg_organization_id at the responsibility level?
    thanks,
    Ken

    We do have a partial work-around for the problem I described. We have added the following parameters to the menu function used to get to the run concurrent requests form.
    REQUEST_GROUP_CODE="<our custom request group code>"REQUEST_GROUP_APPL_SHORT_NAME="<out custom application short name>"USE_ORG="Y"
    This causes the mfg_organization_id to be set. But this is only a partial solution since there are other ways of running a concurrent request. For example, View > Requests > Submit a New Request.

  • Is it possible to set a default media player for the iPhone?

    I have a music subscription with another company, therefore all my music is played through their app. When I plug my phone into my car to play music, it always opens iTunes and alerts me there is no music there so I have to open the app and select the music. Which is fine, but when the app stops (for whatever reason), the iTunes (which I'm not sure why they don't call iMusic or something equally silly) tries to play any music I have in iTunes. Is there any way to stop this madness? Thanks!

  • Setting a default for the Table Headings

    Hi all,
    the users are asking me if it's possible to set in the Table View of Answer the Display Column & Table Headings = As Table.Column as default. This option can be found in the Table View Properties and you can set the value just for the current request...
    Is there a way to set a default value for this option for all the requests?
    Thanks in advance.

    it's stupid, but it works in 9 & 10. probably v8 also, but I can't remember that far back. and it might not work in future releases.
    add this to the top of your script:
    set termout off echo off feed off pages 0 timing off verify off
    rem Determine if parameter 1 is defined. If not, default to "XXX"
    spool temp1.sql
    select 'select decode(instr(''-' from dual;
    def 1
    select ''',''symbol 1 is UNDEFINED''||chr(10)),0,''rem fine'',''define 1 = XXX'') from dual;' from dual;
    spool off
    spool temp2.sql
    @temp1
    spool off
    @temp2
    set termout on
    put your code here
    and of course, it leaves two files (temp1 and temp2) in the current directory. so, you can add o/s dependent delete statements via a host command. or just leave them. you're call.
    Message was edited by:
    shoblock
    forgot the "set" commands at the top
    AND...
    set termout back on at the end (along with echo or whatever else you want).
    and I changed from defaulting &1 to a value of "1", to a value of "XXX". should make it easier to follow (I hope).
    and finally, thanks to Ron who helped me figure this one out (many years ago)

  • How set printer defaults for a printer

    My motivation is to have my wife's new MacBook always print double-sided. Currently she needs to select the preset that we've made for printing duplex, but that's easy to forget to do.
    OS is 10.4.7
    Is there a way to set the printer defaults in this OS?
    I want to have duplex just be the default, even after reboot, and if she wants to print single-sided then she'd need to select the other preset.
    BTW: If it makes a difference -- We're using a Xerox 8550DP, for which the duplex selection is in the standard place of Print -> Layout -> Two-sided -> Long-edged binding
    (Some other printers require using the duplex selection in their own printer's section under that Copies & Pages dropdown menu but not this one.)
    Maybe I'm just not a very good searcher. I searched many here, MacFixit, MacWorld magazine, generally on the web. Looked in my David Pogues's Tiger book and Andy Ihnatko's Tiger book. I came up with nothing about setting printer defaults at all.
    I bet I can tweek it in a pref file. I hope I don't have to resort to a hack to do something this standard.
    Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated!

    I think you can do this. Set up a two-sided setting,
    and save it. Print with it. Then find the preference
    file com.apple.print.custompresets.plist, choose Get
    Info, and lock it.
    If you want to save another setting, you will have to
    unlock it.
    Hey this is only a workaround but it is a pretty darned good workaround, especially because it's not too invasive (only locking a pref file at the user level) and what's stored in that custompresets.plist file is com.apple.print.lastPresetPref, which is probably the key to your suggestion. I think I understand it, anyway.
    I followed that procedure, created a Custom Preset with duplex turned on which I named "Standard Duplex", then locked the file you suggest that's in my user's home Library. It survived app switching and a reboot. It seems to work great, and I can still use the Standard setting as well if I want to. I even chose the custom setting and although it's locked the temp changes I made were enacted (I chose to print this page, scaled to fit a #10 envelope) and that worked too. The Standard or other presets can still be chosen when you want to use those, and the app remembers the last setting through the rest of the session, it's just that upon opening an app the default is now my custom "Standard Duplex". This does what I want.
    I think this is a great workaround. I'm going to go load it onto my wife's MacBook. I suppose I should mark this solved even though there's no real, y'know, user-manual way to do this. Maybe something I'll just hope is a feature in Leopard.
    Thank you Bruce and all the other helpful folks who pondered on this one! Heh, I'm sure 1/2 of the tree population thanks you too.

    <i>I am using NAS 4.1 and was wondering is it possible to set a different session timeout for different users?</i>
    Um, there is no such thing as NAS4.1.
    I'm assuming that you mean NAS4.0 (maybe NAS4.0sp1?). If so, then the session timeouts are specified in the session section of the NTV configuration files.
    AFAIK, you can specify session timeouts on a per user basis.

  • Is there any way to set the default for *.doc document so that Pages opens them automatically?

    I have a number of Ms Word documents because I used to have Word for Mac before the last OS release.  Now, of course, when I double-click on them, I get a message saying that PowerPC isn't supported.
    Now Pages will open these files.  Is there any way to change the default for *.doc files so that a double-click will open them in Pages? 
    (Instead of me going to the trouble of finding out where they are actually located on the hard drive so that I can open pages and say - here, open this file--even though you didn't create it--)

    Click on a .doc file and type Cmnd I to open Get Info. In the Open with: menu select Pages, then click on Change All…

    As you suggested due to hardcoded values here , we could not able to do much on this.
    So i came in round away solution. Whenever program A called ( program with TIME selection input) i have called another custom program C . (This custom program will using the following function module RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS, and RS_VARIANT_CHANGE , So get the DEFAULT variant content of program A and change the variant content with LOW as current time - 30 and HIGH with 24:59:59)  as preceding job.
    In PI 7.01 system program A always called in JOB mode
