Is there a way to collapse the timeline?

I've been doing a lot of grading in DaVinci Resolve lately, and I really love the way it allows you to collapse the timeline and show only the monitor and your grading controls. Is there any way to do this in Speedgrade?
It's kind of silly that you can resize the grading area at the expense of monitor real-estate, but you can't get rid of the timeline!!! I don't want to see the seven layers of video that I have. I want to see what I'm working on!!!

I've also "skipped over" and put in a request for a curves control. I want that as THE MOST IMPORTANT CHANGE TO SPEEDGRADE for me ... and yes, I'm shouting alright!
When I first started working in Sg, I thought those wheels were RAD-COOL-MARVY! Even went right out and got a good trackball so I can use the spinning wheel to do the luminosity and the ball for color changes. Yea, this was awesome!
But then ... saw a few tutorials where the teach was using programs with curves options ... and um ... tried that within AE.
Cool as the wheels are, working with a good-sized curve, one gets an amazing visual-feedback loop on what you're doing, and ... what you do, does. In fact, I was able to start predicting what any change I'd do would make, far above the ability I yet have working the wheels. There are times I've taken things to AE to do the color grade, simply because it was difficult footage and I'd do it better and faster using the curves controls. Even given the um ... less than perfect? ... application of scopes in AE.
Now, back to the original topic ... yea, I think I'd better put in a request for a way to show/hide the timeline also ... much of the time, I don't have TIME to worry about the timeline! (yea, quoting Ms. Troi there). Having a larger monitor would be fantastic ... and no, I don't have the dollar bills sitting around right now to just go out and buy a nice 24" or better high-end monitor ... oh, yea, and a few hundred more for the nifty Nvidia graphics card Adobe insists we buy to do it with also ... sigh ...

Is there a way to collapse the library history view so instead of seeing individual entries they are all grouped by Today, Yesterday, This Week, etc.?

In a previous version of Firefox, when I brought up history using Ctrl+Shift+H, the library would show my history collapsed into Today, Yesterday, This Week, etc. In the current version of Firefox I am using, it shows each individual entry. Is there a way to change this view?

There are two panes one on the left one on the right.
*The right-hand one shows content of folders from the tree on the left.
*Clicking the black arrow-head on the clock denoting the top of the History collapses or expands that part of the tree.
*Clicking the clock itself displays the top content on the right i.e. it will display the folders for Today etc.
*Click any folder and the content of that folder then displays on the right.If you have used the browser quite a bit you probably need to scroll the righthand pane to see all the content.
The bookmarks are also within folders that behave in a similar manner. With certain viewing options you will even see that type of behaviour when looking at some Windows files and folders.

Is there a way to autoscroll the timeline?

Whenever the playhead reaches the right hand side of the timeline, the only way to keep it on screen is to manually drag the timeline to the left. I find this very annoying. Am I missing something here? Alternatively can I keep the playhead stationary and move the timeline under it?

I use a logitech mouse with a mouse wheel that responds to "wheel tilt" left or right. When I bump the wheel, the timeline scrolls if the mouse cursor is over the timeline (even if FCPX is not the "active" application!) It's a little tricky with actual playback keeping the playhead in view, but you get a feel for it after awhile and I'm not trying to click-drag-follow.
If you hold down the shift key and the right or left arrow keys, the timeline will autoscroll, but it's not actually playing, just skipping frames 10 at a time. It's a good way to "scan" through if you're looking for something specific.
J,K, and L work pretty well too, if you're not all that concerned with focusing on the timeline. The playhead always comes back into view when Play, FF, or Rewind stop.

Is there a way to expand the number of layers shown in a timeline?

Hi,
Right now it seems I can only get two layers to show in the timeline at any given time. I don't see any way to resize the timeline so that when applying more grading layers, I can see all the layers at once without having to scroll the timeline view. Is there a keyboard short-cut I'm missing, or some widget on-screen that can let me do this?
Thanks,
Jason

Hi Patrick,
I'm working on a 30" monitor, so it's effectively 2560x1600. It only seems to be showing 2 tracks at a time, unless there is a preference or setting I'm missing that I can't seem to find in the documentation. Here is a screenshot:
I don't see any areas for expanding the timeline. I can scroll vertically in the timeline, but I can't seem to actually get a larger static vertical area for showing more tracks at once. The only vertical resizing widget is to expand the bottom or top panels, not the timeline.
Thanks,
Jason

Is there a way of making the Edge Commons parallax effect work smoothly with DPS on the iPad?

I want to create a feature for an iPad magazine utilising the parallax effect shown here...
Parallax Scrolling Made Easy (Adobe Edge Animate Online Week, Episode 9) - YouTube
I am using Digital Publishing Suite to publish to an iPad. I ran a test and the effect partially works, but not smoothly.
As you scroll down the animation does not play. Once you finish scrolling the animation then jumps to whichever point has been reached on the timeline, rather than animating as you scroll down the page.
Is there a way to get the same animation effect through DPS that you see in the browser? Or is it not compatible?
Thanks!

As lllaass said, you can't.
If you want Apple to add backgrounds to the iPad version, leave them feedback: http://apple.com/feedback/ipad.html.

Is there a way to access the "Creative Cloud Clipboard" repository outside Adobe Line/Sketch Apps?

Is there a way to access the "Creative Cloud Clipboard" repository outside Adobe Line/Sketch Apps?
For instance via (macbookpro) web, local directory (CC desktop), or mobile web? As opposed to Utilizing the feature purely in Adobe line/sketch?
I mean... I know i could just take screen shots... via the iPad's protocol. However, that would defeat the purpose of creative cloud.
The point of accessing the creative cloud clipboard, is so that I can create Time-Lapse .GIF's of my drawings, Using the "timeline" feature (undo)....which is amazing feature btw.
Honestly the solution for me... would be to have an option to export a .GIF (animated), .tiff sequence, or video file (m4a mov). I would say export options would be 1. File Size & Type (Context...) 2. Detail, # of Slides (How long is your timeline, what do you want to show, what level of detail?) 3. Share (Behance, Creative Cloud Files, MMS, iMessage, etc... 4. Open in... Photoshop, Aftereffects etc...
I think this would be great for..tutorials, multi-media, prototyping (wireframes, character design, etc). So, i'm not saying this should be a heavy set...focal point of the application, after all an animation app all itself would be nice. However, I think a feature like an "interactive timeline" would push users to be even more creative, by hacking, creating ghetto rigged *** backwards ways of prototyping that...actually might be more convenient. This is the story Adobe is trying to tell, the story of process, whats in your head... in the moment. Thats why behance is integrated, because process & feedback + exposure are essential to developing as a creative, so Adobe has put together a great platform...for its users. So, yeah...Adobe.. here's your chance to gain a greater insight into creative process, and integrate it directly into the creative cloud platform. I think it would be huge for Ink & Slide , Behance, and Student-Teacher / Designer- Company relationship.
"Share | Project Timeline " "Intervals | # of images" "Crop | Length (time)" "Crop | Project Area (artboard?)"
Yeah this question took a left turn...but hey.... either or.
EDITS............
***You can copy images to creative cloud files....via the share function in ADOBE SKETCH... thats how I made the .gifs im going to attach.***
***However, in ADOBE LINE, if you try to copy multiple images of the same project, they do not receive unique filenames, thus replacing all images in the saved sequence****

First, to answer your initial question - no there is no way to access the clipboard content outside of the apps at this time.
The idea of exporting a timelapse is very interesting, and something we have been thinking about, but there are already some decent ways to do this. Check out this video of a drawing in Line created by Brian Yap Adobe Ink and Adobe Line Illustration - YouTube
You can create this kind of video using several of the available apps that let you display your iPad screen on your computer using Airple. Some examples are Reflector http://www.airsquirrels.com/reflector/ and AirServer http://www.airserver.com/

Is there a way to structure the library

Hi All,
I would love to be able to have a more flexible overview of all my files in the Library. I have it sorted by Artist. The list is quite long and if I am looking for a song by U2, I have to scroll and scroll, just to get to the letter U.
Is there a way to "collapse" all the songs and only show the artist, scroll down to the right one and "open" that artist only. And maybe collapse all the albums aswell.
So then you would have 1 line per artist, open it and have 1 line per album, open an album and have all the songs listed.
It seems such a simple thing, but I can't find out if I can do it or how.

Have you tried using the Browse option? Clicking on the browse Eye icon on top the right of the screen will make three panes appear, Genre, Artist and Album. You can use these to filter the Library view. By clicking on a particular Artist for instance the view of you Library will change and you will just see works by that Artist you are interested in. Have a look on this page you'll see a picture of the browser half way down on the left under playlist tips: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/windows/hottips/

Is there a way to change the duration of a group of selected clips all at once?

Hi all,
I'm working with good old Premiere 6 on Windows 7.
Is there a way to change the duration of a group of selected clips all at once? If I have a large group of clips in my timeline that are all the same duration, once I've selected them all in a group, can I somehow change the frame number duration of all the clips at the same time?
I've found other things that can be done to a group of clips at the same time, but I can't find a way to change the duration of a group of selected clips.
Thanks,
digi

Thanks Jim and Bill,
In my efforts to work around the problems with the distortion and horizontal interlace lines that come when using the Motion Settings, I'm doing stop frame animation with hundreds and hundreds of layers in PSDs in multiple files placed in hundreds of one, four and six frame sections in Premiere, so if I find that I need to change the number of frames per clip in hundreds of consecutive clips (not actual duration of speed changes), then I need to pull out the right side of hundreds of frames after first moving them apart enough to allow for changing them if I'm making them longer.
These animations are different from the rotating reel animations in that they are for laterally moving subjects that are long streams of moving graphics and photos.
I read about "clip nesting", but I think that only applies to clips or groups of clips that are the same, whereas my clips are each from different imported layers times 125 or so, consecutively placed one after another to create the laterally moving stop frame animation.
Now I've tried johnbmx4christ's alternate method of creating rotations that was just posted on the other thread about the rotation distortion, but that method results in the same oblong distortion and messed up looking horizontal interlace lines.
What a can of worms.
Thanks,
digi

Is there a way to detect the end of a video?

Is there a way to detect the end of a video.. .mp4 or youtube? I want to be able to detect the end of a video and then have it do something...ie play on timeline or go to and play symbol.

For youtube the code would be something like this:
view-source:calkaweb.herobo.com/video.html
for HTML5 videos for youtube replace &version=3 with &html5=1 in the youtube URL
I have no idea how to impletent the youtube code into Edge tho other than an iframe but that wouldn't work I've tried :
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1285212
You would need to place all of the youtube codes into edge in order for it to work but I duno how to do that and no1 answered the question in the thread I made about it.
as for MP4/HTML5 video you can use
var video = document.getElementsByTagName('video')[0];
video.onended = function(e) {
/*Do Something*/

Is there a way to increase the number of layers in PS touch for iPad? Can Adobe do something about this?

Is there a way to increase the number of layers in PS touch for iPad? Can Adobe do something about this? I have been using PS touch for iPad for a few years and ALWAYS end up with a message that I have reached the maximum allowable number of layers. not to mention of course a simple tool for drawing straight lines which is a must. I may be missing something. I would have imagined that a respectable company like Adobe would have added over the years a small upgrade to solve these issues.
thanks.

Is there a way to dock the object toolbar to the top menu bar?

I am trying to get as much screen real estate as I can. Is there a way to dock the object toolbar to the top dock areabar? Ideally i would like to place it under the main options bar.
I have tried everything I can think of to do this. It seems like I am missing something easy to make this happen.
Along the same lines it would be great if you could place the timeline across the entire bottom of the Captivate window with any of your other docks above it. I don't need that much room for the other dock, but a wider timeline bar would be fantabulous. Docking the timweline to the top would work as well.
Thanks
David

Do you want the workspace to look in this way? :
You just need to drag the object toolbar, towards right and move that near to the toolbar.
Same goes for Timeline and other Pods.
I used classic workspace and just dragged and moved the pods to the desired positions, you can save that workspace after making changes.
Thanks.

Yes. In Timeline mode, you add it to an upper video track as a title.
I show you the basics of titles in the Basic Training tutorials at Premiere Elements support site Muvipix.com.

I created a birthday calendar to use in iphoto for calendar. When a new calendar project is started each year, I click on it in. Some how the birthday did not populate the photo calendar this year. The photo calendar is almost complete. Is there a way to add the birthday iCal calendar into the calendar project? I would prefer not to start over.

Hi,
If you first select the calendar on the left, so that its background is highlighted blue/grey, when you make a new events they should be added to that calendar.

Is there a way to adjust the settings on launchpad so that when I swipe into it all the open apps/pages are fully separated (like in exposé) so that I can fully view all of them simultaneously?

Hi Apple community,
This is my first go at this so be kind,
My question concerns launchpad. Coming from Snow Leopard I had been using spaces. I like to keep certain bundles of programs on separate desktops, for example all word processing related tasks in one place. I have set up the equivalent on Yosemite.
My problem is concerns the loss of exposé. Now I know when you swipe into launch pad you get a very similar effect but the issue I am having concerns the "zoom out" effect when you swipe into launchpad. With exposé all open apps/pages etc would be fully exposed - in my case several (sometimes as many as 9 word documents). What I am running into is when I do this in / into launch pad the "pile" of docs is exposed but they are still overlapping so I can't get a good look at which is which and visually identify where I want to navigate to.
My question is this; Is there a way to adjust the settings on launchpad so that when I swipe into it all the open apps/pages are fully separated (like in exposé) so that I can fully view all of them simultaneously? If so, instructions on how to do so would be greatly appreciated. Any alternative suggestions to doing this outside of launchpad are also welcome. If there is an exposé app for example, I would be quite willing to go that route.
My main concern is being able to quickly (ie a touchpad gesture) expand all the open pages so I can bounce between them.
Much thanks from a loyal Apple friend.

Hey Eric,
Thanks for taking the time. Unfortunately no that does not solve it. Same as swipe it will get me there and it will show separate programs spaced out. The issue I am having is that all my open word files are bunched up in a pile on top of each other. I can see the edges of each one but I want them to be separated from each other enough that I can visually identify what file is what.
Again, thanks for trying, it is appreciated.
