Keeping Quicktime on top / in forground /front

I play streaming video of our local supervisors meeting to be aware of what they are up to. I want to keep the little QuickTime player in front of whatever I'm working on so I can quickly shift my attention to it. I can't find a setting to do this.

Never got an answer or solution.

  • Keep QT on top

    Is it possible to keep QuickTime on top of other windows at all times?

    You can turn off a preference in FCP's user prefs, to bring all windows to front on activation. That way only the windows you click on come in front of the DVD player.
    But probably a better way to handle the problem is to use the tab+apple key to bounce back and forth between the two apps. Try that...
    My book will work just fine in FCP 5, comes with a ton of media to work with, and will hone your skills I think.
    Also Apple's Pro Training series is much the same, and are written well. I'm working now on a training DVD...

  • HT2509 Despite what this article states, Apple support told me not to try to remove any fonts as it could cause other possibly serious problems.  Is there a program which can be safely installed which will keep at the top of the font list those fonts whic

    An article in the New York Times yesterday told how to remove unwanted fonts from the Font Book.  I followed its instructions (the same as those on the webpage "support.apple.com/kb/ht2509") and was NOT successful in removing fonts.  Despite what the newspaper article and the web page stated, my attempts to remove fonts were unsuccessful.  I use perhaps 15-20 of the hundreds and hundreds of fonts, and deleting those I don't use would make choosing a font a lot faster.  I called support and was told not to try to remove any fonts which I myself had not added to the list(I have not added any) as doing so could cause significant problems elsewhere.  The support tech suggested that there might be independent software programs which would keep at the top of the list those fonts I have used, which sure would speed up the process of selecting a font.  Anyone know of such a program, or how to safely alter the font list Thanks.

    I just spoke again to tech support and this time an answer was provided that works!  Choose the font you want to use, drag it to the left, and a new "unnamed" folder will appear.  Continue to drag into that folder fonts you want to use.  You can click onto that folder to change its name.  Then when using font book merely click on that folder to open it and select the font wanted.  This tech rep also confirmed that you should NOT try to delete individual fonts as they are part of the basic operating system; he did confirm that the apple web page in parentheses above says otherwise, and will refer that to higher ups to see about removing or modifying that page.

    when I Share my project using QuickTime the top of my video is chopped off, how do i fix this?

    What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system is it running?
    - Mac OSX; Premier Elements 11 v11
    Where is the audio in the project - numbered audio tracks, Narration Track, and/or Soundtrack? Any chance that you are using a XviD.avi file?
    - audio is either in the soundtrack , or in audio 2 when part of a video
    Besides the full properties of your source file including file extension, what are the full export settings that you are using presumably for Publish+Share/Computer/MPEG?
    - i was just using the default for MPEG, which is the NTSC DVD standard, file type MPEG2-DVD
    What player are you using? Does the file playback video and audio using the VLC player? Does the problem exist in a new project?
    - i have tried in quicktime and VLC, both have the same effect (picture works, staccato background noise).  I have not tried in another file, but will do so now.

  • How to keep screen on top of others

    Hi there,
    I'm not sure if this is posted already. If it is I apologise.
    I have a question which is to do with keeping one screen on top. By this I mean that I would like to watch a movie (keeping this on top)
    and at the same time I would like to maybe do my work, play another game or something that is multi-tasking.
    I can't stagger the windows around the screen because the screen sizes are locked... so is it possible if I can keep one screen locked on top of another? instead of staggering them around the screen?
    I hope my questions is easy to understand. I'm not usually good with technical terminology. Thank you in advance! 
    Kind Regards

    How can I stick an accordion navigation MENU on top of a mobile scrolling page and make it work properly?
    As I can't pin it, I keep it on top of the page with scroll effect 0.
    It collapse, shows the menu buttons but doesn't close back once it reaches the anchorpoint.

    Muse won't let you, at least not that I know of. You could find the class in the code that muse gives it position: fixed…I think. You could paste it into the head area of your page properties to override the class. I believe something like this would give you persistent nav bar, pinned at the very top, on mobile:
    #youmuseclass {position: fixed;}
    I wouldn't use any parallax on mobile either, the performance is terrible.

  • Disbales Keep Taskbar on top

    hi,
    I like my windows maximised, so I have set up Safari Beta on the XP2 to do such.
    I have my taskbar appearance set to auto hide taskbar and keep the tasbar on top of other windows option..... However when Safari opens it prevents me from hovering over the taskbar and bringing it to front like every other windows application......If I then resize safari then maximise it again, it works. but not if it opens maximised.
    rsp

    I was unable to re-create your problem using XP2.
    What are your taskbar appearance settings?

  • How can I close all open subVI front panels, without closing my top level VI front panel when all VIs are built into executables?

    I'm using the code shown in the sample VI discussed here: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/353A696A3F393D9B86256E8B007A2912
    to close all open VIs except my top level VI.  My top level VI is actually a separate executable and the sub-VIs are their own executables.  All reside under the same project.  It works very well if I'm running in LabView but will not work when I build them.  I added all the sub-VIs to the Always Include box in my top level VIs properties which did nothing.  I also tried adding them to the Startup VIs box.  This allowed me to close them all programmatically from the top level VI but it also open all the VIs at once (which was expected and not desired).  I think the problem is the executables are not able to see outside their own memory space so the top-level VI never finds any other open front panels to close.  Is this correct?  Is there another way to go about doing this? 
    Thanks!

    Where do I begin…..
    I’m using a “server” to control 4 “client” PCs.  My server opens references to 4 VIs on each client then executes them sequentially.  So on a normal day, the server will run everything itself and I will have no contact with the clients.  But on a several occasions, I’ve needed the ability to walk up to one of the clients and run just one of the 4 VIs. 
    We are updating from LabView 6.1 to 8.5 and we want to run executables rather than VIs for various reasons.  I have a new VI running on the client PCs who’s only function is to initialize the shared variables and open/close the VIs.  I initially thought of making the remaining 4 VIs sub-VIs but I will loose the ability to run them individually.  I think I would also have to rewrite the VI running on the server since the 4 references it originally opened do not exist.  I don’t think you can open a reference to a sub-VI on another PC.  Can you???
     As you can see, this is a huge mess.  I’m still pretty new with LabView so any help you can provide would be great. 

  • Keep Pallets On Top in CS4

    I've been working to save my CS4 layout so my panels are repositioned as they were in CS3 (which was a better layout in my opinion).
    However, I can't keep the panels on top of my foreground image I'm working. In CS3, when you would move the window of the image your were working on, it would always slide UNDER the panels. Now, in CS4 it's always on top. This makes it vary difficult to grab new tools and edit content in layers when the image your working on is blocking your pallets. I'm constantly having to drag things around.
    Is there any way to configured CS4 to keep all the panels on top, Ala how Windows XP keeps the taskbar on top of all other windows?
    Thanks!

    Several things come to mind:
    1.  Use Tabbed view.  Yes, I understand that people who are used to the old Photoshop greatly prefer windowed view, but try using the Tabbed view instead for a few weeks. It solves the problem you're describing and it actually can grow on you. I know; I was a die-hard windowed view fan and I finally converted, and lo and behold I now like tabbed view a lot.  It just seems to work better.
    2.  Drag the panels out of their docked position so they're floating.  Then they will stay on top of the image edges.  If you have only one monitor, you might consider running Photoshop as "restored" (i.e., windowed and not full screen), and narrowing the main window - so the panels are out over the desktop.  This is similar to what people with multiple monitors often do.
    Hope these suggestions give you some ideas to try.

  • Enlarging Top-Level VI front panel

    I'm now customizing the TS4.0  version of the LabVIEW operator interface and I have a problem.  The monitor in my office is smaller than the monitor attached to the Rack that tests the UUT.  I'm trying to make the front panel bigger than my desk's front panel so as to take advantage of the lab display size.  I've just started this effort, so I'm seeing all sorts of anomalies, but how do resolve this one.  I've tried some of the VI Properties (i.e. Window Size, Window Run-Time Position).  When I clicked on the Window Size, and clicked the Set To Current Panel Size, I saw a popup saying "The minimize screen size you set exceeds the size of the main screen which will force your window to be larger than the screen.  Do you wish to save these settings?"  I select "OK", and still the screen is not the right size.  After mucking around with the different settings, I've even got to the point where the splash screen flashes momentarily, and disappears, and the top-level front panel doesn't even show up any more.

    Hi mrbean,
    I'm sorry but I still can't reproduce your problem.  I realize you don't want to post your project on a public forum, but are you able to create a simple VI that demonstrates the problem you are experiencing?
    If you'd like a more direct line of support, you will need to create a service request (either by email or phone);  be sure to mention this forum thread if you decide to do so.

  • How to keep quicktime from opening in a separate window?

    I was trying to listen to XM Radio online and everytime I went to click on a station the Quicktime player opened up in a separate window rather than staying within the XM website. Is this normal or is there a way to keep the Quicktime player within the webpage? This problem also happens when listening to MLB.com Audio streems.
    The problem with the player outside of the webpage is it doesn't refresh automatically once it ends stream. You have to go back and reclick the station to stream again.
    I am currently running on a MacBookPro with Leopard 10.5.1 operating system.

    MMM...well...if the button or the link you click on opens the audio/video in the Qt player. There really nothing you can do about this...it's how the web page was set up.
    Please supply a link (with no logins) so somebody can check this out.

  • Application to pin/keep windows on top?

    Does anyone know an app that will keep/pin one (or multiple) window on top of currently open windows? Afloat doesn't seem to work for many apps, and quite often I need to have few different chat windows going while working on something else in full screen. I can't freaking believe something like this is so difficult to find in OS X world!
    Thanks!

    No one knows of such beast?

  • Keep window on top

    There used to be a plugin called Afloat that woulkd let you keep a window on top of the others but I can't get it work in 10.10 Yosemite.  Is there a new version or another similar program?

    Not in QT Player, but here's a nifty trick using Stickies:
    Launch Applications/Stickies, create a new note, then with that note active, select "Note > Floating Window".
    Now locate the QT mov you wish to view and drag/drop it on the floating Sticky note. Stickies will ask you if you want to Copy or Alias the mov- select "Alias". This will create a pointer to the original mov (smaller) instead of copying it holus bolus into the sticky. Note if you move the original mov file, you'll break the alias.
    Back in the sticky, drag the grab handle in the bottom right-hand corner to resize the note so you can see all the mov and the controller bar. For some reason, Stickies will scale a mov to fit a note on the X plane (horizontal) but not the Y plane (vertical) until it's at 100% size. It won't scale up from 100%.
    If the floating sticky mov is too big at 100% for your display size, there are 2 possible workarounds:
    a) In Stickies, make the mov note active and select "Note > Translucent Window". This will make the note (and the mov) "see through" so you can see other stuff underneath it, even while the mov plays, or;
    b) If you have a QT Pro Key, open the mov in QT Player before you drag/drop into Stickies, set it to view at half size (or whatever) then "File > Save As…" allowing dependencies. This will create a small reference mov that points to the original, maintaining the smaller viewing size (again, if you move the original, you'll break the reference). Now drag/drop that reference mov into the Sticky note as above and the mov will display at the smaller size.
    Hope that all makes sense. No clue how you'd do something similar on Windows.

  • Keep application on top

    Does anyone know how to keep a Java application always on top in a window environment ? And also how to add the application to window toolbar at the bottom of the screen ?
    Thanks

    Outside of Java - for any app - you can do this: http://www.lovemusiclovedance.com/alwaysontop.htm
    I've heard of some Pure java method calls involving a series of calls - not sure what they are - perhaps something like what is described at: http://home-1.tiscali.nl/~bmc88/java/sbook/0115.html
