Making Superscript Text in FCP6

Does anyone know how to make superscript using the text generator in FCP 6?
Superscript is when you have a title like "Friday The 13th" and you need to put the "th" above the "13" rather than on the same line.
Thanks,
Marc Griffin

Type it out in word the way you would like it work and then copy and paste it into FCP
Cheers.
EDIT: Nerver mind that has worked for me in the past but doesn't seem to be working in this case! Sorry about that one.

  • How do I superscript text in Ver 3.6?

    The font dialog box has changed in Ver 3.6 and I can't find a way to superscript text when making a book.

    You can reinstall Firefox 3.6 from http://www.firefox.com/all-older.html
    You might need to uninstall Firefox 4 before installing Firefox 3.6. When you uninstall Firefox 4, make sure you do '''not''' select the option to "Remove my Firefox data." (If you select that option, it will delete your bookmarks and settings.)

  • Making 3D Text In Motion 4 ?

    I have seen a Creative Cow tutorial for making 3D text in Motion 3.
    http://library.creativecow.net/articles/wigginspeter/3dtext.php
    It involves a rather complex workaround to get a simulated 3D effect.
    Is there an easier and quicker way to produce 3D text in the new Motion 4?
    I have studied the appropriate parts of the manual but as usual they are fairly meaningless to me and anyone else who is not already an expert.
    Are there any tutorials, written or video, on the web or is the whole technique so simple it could be described in a few sentences?

    That you tube tutorial is the same basic concept as the one on creative cow. In fact, he wrongly calls it "true 3d text" which is obviously isn't. It's really only a bunch of tightly stacked 2D planes. The look of the text breaks down when viewed on edge, but for a work around it's very handy. I use it a lot myself.
    However, for "TRUE 3D text", you require a "true" 3D program, or else a plug-in like Invigorator or Boris' Continuum.

  • VO does not distinguish between subscript or superscript text

    I find it strange that VocieOver in Mac OS X (10.5.8) does not distinguish between subscript and superscript. Subscript and superscript hold a lot of meaning and was wondering if there was maybe a setting somewhere that enabled subscript and superscript text to be easily identified.
    Thanks

    Hello, man with the spoof hobbitname,
    Try doing it the other way around: put your legacy instruments in the main folder, after you've removed the new ones with the same names - including their samples folders.
    *Like so:*
    +(the folders are empty - I don't actually have them)+
    It should work this way...

  • Trouble making the text in scrolling credits (made on Final Cut Express) export clear and not fuzzy

         I am having difficulty making the text in the scrolling credits in Final Cut Express clear and not fuzzy. I went under effects, then clicked video generators, then text, then scrolling text to get the scrolling credits working. I tried using the Chroma Keyer effect and the Color Key Effect. These work on captions on video and beginning titles but not the scrolling text. All of those were made on livetype so maybe that is why. I would really appreciate some help. I've been working on this all day. I was on the technical support line for about 40 minutes and they told me there is no more help given over the phone for Final Cut Express and that I should go on here and see if anyone can answer my question. I looked on all the forums and there was nothing on this subject. Thanks.

    The software is not doing what it should be doing.  We have all had this type of problem.  It is nearly always somehow in the way the software is being used.  Look at your added Chromakey and color key.  You must be doing something that the FCE does not like.  Open a new project and new sequence and try the exact same thing.  (I use titles from LiveType and from the effects tab and have no problems)

  • IPhone 3GS making random text message alerts but no message received

    Since yesterday morning my iPhone 3GS (running iOS 4.2) has started randomly making the text message alert noise but no new message has been received. I've also go no other new push notifications which could have been using the same sound either. At the moment it's about 2-3 of these bizare alerts a day with no set pattern of when and where.
    Any ideas what could be the problem and how to fix it?
    Thanks

    This sounds very much like a physical fault inside the phone - short or loose component. You really have no option but to get it looked at under warranty

  • Robohelp and superscript text

    I have FrameMaker 10 and RoboHelp 9.  When I convert a Framemaker document that has superscript text into RoboHelp, Robohelp skews the text.  The html reveals that it is not placing the "end superscript" commands correctly, it places it at the end of the sentence instead of after the superscript text.
    Any help?

    Are you linking or importing? Does the superscript character tag have its own name? Access the Conversion Settings through the RH Project Settings by selecting the Edit FrameMaker…stuff button.

  • Photoshop: Making a text box with color or border.

    How do you fill a text box in Photoshop?
    Answer: You CAN’T.
    Solution:  You CAN do anything you want in Photoshop -we know it’s GREAT - but the steps are not always so easy.  See below for solutions to making it seem that the text box is filled with color, bordered, semi-tansparent etc.
    In Photoshop, a text box is mostly about the text inside and less about the box that surrounds it.  In other words, the box is always transparent and all effects apply to the font shapes typed inside by the user.  Photoshop (CS4) can produce incredible, professional, amazing text images. No Doubt About It!
    A Photoshop text box can display one of two types of bounding boxes: 
    Its OBJECT bounding box is there for moving the whole text layer, rotating it, duplicating it and distorting.  Clicking once on the text layer pallet and selecting the move tool (v) will produce this bounding box.  The direct selection tool (a) won’t recognize it.  Note:  If you try to resize the box as an object, it also distorts/stretches the text inside.  This can make cool effects but usually you want the text to stay the way the font was designed.  See: Layers>Type>Warp Text.
    The TEXT bounding box is there for highlighting, re-typing and selecting the margins of the actual text/paragraph etc.  Selecting the text tool and clicking over existing text will produce this bounding box.
    Some features are accessible in either mode.
    The Photoshop text tool has two types of cursors:
    The NEW text box cursor looks like a text insertion cursor (often seen in word processing) WITH a dotted box around it.
    To produce the new text box cursor just select the text tool and move over to a new work area.
    The EDIT text cursor looks very much like the ordinary cursor people are familiar with (no dotted box). 
    To produce the edit text tool, hover the text tool over EXISTING text and the cursor changes to the simple insertion shape (without the dotted box).  A click now will put you into text editing mode, not new text box mode.  This drove me batty for a while because I was used to clicking anywhere inside an existing text box and the blinking cursor would pop in automatically - usually at the end of the last letter.  This doesn’t happen in Photoshop; if that NEW text box tool is active, it will try to place a new box anywhere you click sometimes overlapping another.
    When in this mode (edit existing text) you can carefully hover the arrow to the edges of the text box and resize the bounding box without altering the shape of the text itself.  This is how you make the text box larger or smaller to fit/accommodate your needs.  You can also highlight text, insert between words/letters.  Highlighted text is available for changing its font, color, size, cutting/pasting etc. 
    To get OUT of the EDIT text mode, click the check box on the tool column above or type enter (not return) or type cmd-return (MAC), ctrl-return (WIN).  If you want to cancel any changes to an existing text box click the ex-circle on the tool column or press the esc key (top left of keyboard-escape key)
    OK, THE MAIN POINT:
    To make an effect that looks like a text box that is filled, bordered, semi-transparent etc., you will have to create an object shape (box) and place it just behind (under) the text box.  Linking the two allows you to move them around easily.  The drawback is that, when you need a larger box, you’ll have to alter the size of both boxes and possibly re-center them to each other (I know it’s sort of dumb to have so many steps just to get a shaded text box or bordered one.)
    Begin by selecting the Rectangle shape tool and draw a shape on the screen of any size.  In the layers pallet a layer is created with two items (layer thumbnail and vector mask) Double click the one on the left the layer thumbnail).  Change its color to a light one such as baby blue or yellow.
    Now select the text tool and click once over that shape.  A text box is created exactly the same size of the rectangle (any shape will work too).
    Type some text into that box and change the font type, size and color to something you might use regularly.  Check to see that the text color is black (can be changed later).  The text automatically wraps around when you reach the edge of this box and fits well (inside margins can be altered by pixel later).
    Now link the two boxes to one another.  Shift-click each layer in the layers pallet to select both and choose the link button at the bottom of the window for layers or go to Layers>Link Layers.  Now when you move one it will move the other too!
    Using the paragraph tools you can center text, indent first line, and add space between paragraphs.  Except the first paragraph seems too close to the top of the colored rectangle; doesn’t it?  Photoshop won’t add extra leading (horizontal space) between the text box and the top of the first paragraph.
    There are two ways to fix this:
    1.     Select the text tool and click inside the existing text then hover the pointer just above the little box/tab in the top center of that rectangle and bring it down just a bit.
    2.     Or you could unlink the two layers (to unlink just click link again while one of the two layers is selected in pallet) and move the colored rectangle up just a bit.
    In the first instance it was not necessary to unlink the boxes.  This is the advantage because altering the colored rectangle without unlinking will distort your text as will altering the text box if you are not in object text mode (see intro.)
    Ok, some advantages:
    Now that you have this set up you can use the background box (colored rectangle) to make other effects.  Select it as a separate layer but you won’t have to unlink it.  To make the box semi-transparent change either the layer OPACITY or the layer FILL (found in the layer pallet).
    To create a border box:
    1.     Select the colored rectangle box and under Layers>Styles>Blending Options (or just double click in an open area of the layer pallet for that shape.)
    2.     Select Stroke, change:  Fill Type color, Color black, Size 4, Position inside, Blend Mode normal, Opacity 100%. Click OK/Apply
    3.     Back in the layer pallet, change the Fill to 0% and you will just have a border with attached text box.  You may have to alter the inside text box again depending on the thickness of that border especially if you made the Position to be inside to keep the sharpness of the rectangle.
    4.     Yes this will work with other shapes and even custom shapes.  Remember to draw the shape first and immediately place a new text box over it BEFORE any other alteration is done.  This ensures that Photoshop creates a text box exactly the same size/dimension of your chosen shape.  It even makes margins fit irregular shapes like triangles.
    5.     Try it!

    While doing so, i dont want the user to change the Short Text field. I want that field shud display the Description. When i tried with the Screen Layout settings, it is fully grayed out and i am not able to see the Description of the Material. Is there any other options to get this enabled?. Please advice me on this settings to be done. Thanks in Advance.

    Hi
    Define a Field selection key (new not the one which is assigned to document type) which makes  short text editable in screen layout config. and assign it to functional authorization value in t.code OMET. (it should be numeric). Then assign that functional authorization value in user master SU01 for users with parameter id EFB.
    Then it will work

  • Making a text box expand as you type into it?

    I was wondering if it is possible to make a text box (or any kind of box) expand as you type into it.  Currently the box does not have a caption, I simply want to allow the value box to expand as i type into it.  It would also be great if it would expand to another page...does anyone know if this is possible and if so how can i do it?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated and, yes, that is a mess x about 17.   The good news is I didn't design it -- the bad news is I got tagged to try and fix it.
    I'll try to answer in order:
    You haven't used any subforms so it's not going to work as-is.
                        I don't think whoever did the initial form knew about the subform issue so no provisions made for them.
    I won't have time to look at it closely until tonight. Some questions/comments in the meantime:
    Do you really need 2 master pages - does that block need to be at the bottom of each page? Or is it just supposed to follow everything else.
                         the information is to be on the bottom of every page -- clients/workers need to sign each page to prove they have read the information
    You've used tables to do a lot of the layout - probably not a good idea.
                                  if we need to dump the tables, that's fine -  I looked at the 7_Questions_Flowing.pdf from another thread and I can make it work
                                  the way it needs to with the information in a header but they WANT it as a footer.
    You've made the Content Area the full size of the page, better to size it what you want your margins to be.
                                    ok, that should be the easy fix of the batch
    You have no master subform (or any at all for that matter...)
                                 my problem was I couldn't find a way to add a master subform that didn't give me that message.  If I couldn't get that
                                  one to work without the error message then none contained within would either ??

  • Making a Text File in Microsoft Virtual Studio Xaml App

    I'm trying to save kinect data to a text file, but first I'm trying to get any text file to start with. I have found a number of places that say to use:

  • I want to be able to create an editable Evernote note from a PPT presentation, preserving the Speaker Notes at the bottom of each slide, while making that text still editable.  Can I use automator to copy/paste each slide/notes into Evernote?

    I can print the PPT as a PDF with speaker notes but this makes it into an attachment when adding to Evernote which for some reason makes the text on each slide/image unsearchable and it just makes the whole file too big (which in many cases violates Evernote's 100 MB file size limit).
    I have been researching how to convert the PPT to a Word document, but apparently Microsoft got rid of that feature in the version that I have (14.3.9) because it was too unweildy and just didn't always work like it was supposed to.
    I don't have any experience with coding (very limited html coding), but it seems to me like this would be a very simple thing to do with Automator where I could just specify the new PPT that I received, click run, and voila! have an Evernote note with each slide followed by its speaker notes in text format so that I could add/delete/edit them as I please as I'm working through them for school.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks!
