Multiple tasks in sequence text behavior don't seem to work..

Hey guys,
This is a little frustrating: all I'd like to do is have text type on red and then fade to black.. how would this be accomplished with the sequence text behavior? I don't get what I'm missing. (I'm using Motion 4)

I'm not totally clear based on your description and choice of using the sequence text behavior what you're going for, but here's what I'd suggest.
Create the text, set the face color to red. Apply the Type On behavior and adjust the duration as needed to type the text on. If you want all the text to fade at once, then use the fade in/out behavior with no fade in, and fade out over the frames needed. If you want the fade out to be sequential (like the type on, but in reverse), apply the Sequence Text behavior, set the in point for the behavior where you want the fade to start. Add the Face>Opacity parameter and set the value to 0%. Set the Sequencing Parameter as "To".

    How do I get all my fonts to work. I upgraded the OS and the old fonts don't seem to work.

    If the fonts are installed on the OS they should be there already. If they were only available to CS5 they are probably in the fonts folder in the Adobe section of the Common files (location will be OS dependent), or they may be in ID's own fonts folder.

  • I've just changed from a PC to a mac and have a large number of downloaded WMA music files (not i-tunes purchases) which I just can't get into my i-tunes library. File converters don't seem to work either. Any ideas?

    I've just changed from a PC to a mac and have a large number of downloaded WMA music files which I can't get into i-tunes. When the library was in Windows, i-tunes would convert the files automatically, but this doesn't happen now. I've downloaded a couple of file converters, but these don't seem to work either. Any ideas?

    iTunes for Windows (but not iTunes for Mac) can import and convert unprotected WMA tracks. If the tracks are protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management) then it will not accept them.
    One option would be to install iTunes on your PC, do the conversion, and then transfer the converted tracks from iTunes on your PC to iTunes on your Mac.

  • The Ctrl+Up and Ctrl+Down keyboard short cuts don't seem to work anymore. Can we get this back?

    Until the latest update (I'm guessing v 34.x), the search bar's icon would show you the currently selected default search engine. I understand that Google is no longer paying to be the default... That I was expecting and isn't my issue....
    I used to be able to use Ctrl+Up and Ctrl+Down to change the default search engine (maybe default isn't the right term... but it changed what was used when I hit <Enter> or <Alt+Enter>). Now, there's no support for this as far as I can tell.
    This shortcut page (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keyboard-shortcuts-perform-firefox-tasks-quickly) still references it, but it doesn't seem to work.
    As a sort of side note: Where typically, middle clicking on anything opens stuff up in a new tab, that behavior does not seem to carry over when clicking one of the non-default options in the search context menu. I've always appreciated that Firefox was very consistent about respecting the middle click as "do this in a new tab" what seems EVERYWHERE.

    If you start typing a search term then a drop-down list opens.
    You can use the Tab key to select other search engines that show on the bottom bar.
    If you want to restore the previously used standalone window to manage search engines then you can toggle this pref to false with a middle-click on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    *<b>about:config</b> page: <b>browser.search.showOneOffButtons</b> = false
    You need to close and restart Firefox to make this work properly.

  • Animated Texts in Demoversion don't seem to work properly

    Hey there,
    I am quite interested in buying and working with Adobe Premiere Elements (12). I do quite some hobby film editing, and have some experiences on the field with other free programmes (like Avidemux, Movie Maker, etc.), but I have some spare money and thought that Premiere would help me do my job easier, and / or better.
    So, I downloaded the demo version to see if I can get around it, and if it has all the functions I want from a program, that is at least a little bit expensive from my point of view.
    All in all I think it is neat, but I have one problem that is a severe problem for me. I can't get my texts animated. No matter what I do. I have read the related FAQ-section, I have had a browse-around in the Adobe TV section, and I don't think I am doing it the wrong way - it just doesn't work.
    I have my video, audio and all the stuffs in place. Around the time of 10-15 seconds I do have a title (sort of an intro-title-thingy), and I don't want that to just "pop up" and "pop out", but rather have some nifty animation to come in.
    What I am trying is:
    Activating / selecting the text passage.
    Going to the righthand window, selecting the "animation" tab. There we have the first problem: The preview of the shown effects does only work randomly (which means sometimes it doesn't work at all), and if so, only with a quite big delay. 
    Nevertheless, when I try to apply any of those animations, I just have no possible way of doing so. The "OK" Button on the bottom of the animation tab is grayed-out, so I can't click that. If I try to drag&Drop the animation on the text in question, it just shows a forbidden-sign and doesn't apply it. Whether I try to drag and drop it on the preview-text in the preiview-video, or if I try to Drag&Drop it to the text in the overview-timeline down below.
    From the same window I can apply styles, I can change the text font, etc. The only thing I can't get to work is the animation thing.
    I am also quite certain that my new PC should not be the problem - I work on 16 Gigs of RAM, Win 8.1 and an Intel Xeon processor, so that should be enough to handle the workload...
    Since I think animated texts are quite improtant for video editing and videos without it look quite, quite less professional, this would be a reason for me to not buy the program at all. Although I think it MIGHT be related to the fact that it is only a demo, but since I can't check that without investing money...
    Anyhow, I was hoping that maybe you nice people here have an idea where I am going wrong, and that maybe this is all just related to my own stupidity, so any good ideas? Help? And stuffs?
    Thanks for your help in advance!

    I have just read your thread and will respond more fully after you have read through the link provided in this thread. Right now I want to point out where I do not agree especially with SG's "The text can only be one line long" when it comes to the Premiere Elements Titler Text Animation Feature. Not so.
    For starters, please check out my blog post on the Premiere Elements Titler Text Animations and a sampling of some of the text animation effects that can be achieved in the Premiere Elements Titler Text Animation feature.

  • Multiple Email Addresses don't seem to work in Profile Manager

    I have an email account that has multiple email addresses that filter into it.  I have previously been able to configure this directly on the device by entering two email addresses in the address field, separated by a comma, which had to be pasted into the field since the keyboard did not allow it.
    I was hoping that as I moved to Profile Manager to manage my device configuration, this would make it easier to manage these settings.  However, when I enter the same into the address field in the profile manager, the profile is pushed to the device, and the device is subsequently unable to send email (Asks me to look at the email settings).  It also does not allow me to select a from address, which leads me to believe it is interpreting the whole field as a single address. 
    Is there a good way to setup an account that allows sending from multiple from addresses using the profile manager?

    Unfortunately, I just tested it again, and it's still not working.  I did check the outgoing mail settings, and those look correct.  Moreover, the settings look like they would if I had typed them myself into the device, except they are greyed out because they came from the profile. 
    So a few more details/questions which may or may not help...
    - Does it matter if there is a space between the email addresses? I have tried it both ways I think, but right now I'm testing it without a space.  (i.e. Email Address: [email protected],[email protected])
    - If I turn Auto BCC on - then in the BCC field it shows [email protected],[email protected], -- if I then try to send an email, first it prompts me that it looks like an invalid email address and am I sure I want to send.  If I click OK, it finally tells me it cannot send the email, and that I should check my email settings.
    - Does it matter what kind of profile this is in?  I'm currently configuring this as part of settings for a particular user, but wonder if it might work if I configured it some other way (such as setting multiple email addresses for the user elsewhere, and then using the setttings for everyone).
    - For clarification @Eldrik - you are tying the email addresses into profile manager, right, and not for example leaving it blank to type into on the device?
    Thanks,

  • Placeholders on Master Slides in Captivate 5 don't seem to work

    Hi I'm very new to Captivate and I am exploring the trial version (5) to learn what it can do.
    I am trying to create a project template with a master slide. I have added text caption placeholders to the master slide and saved the file as a project template.
    When I create a 'new project from template' using this file I have created a slide based upon the master with placeholders but I am unable to edit the placeholders from the film strip view (they are not clickable, and stay locked). Am I doing something wrong?
    There appeared to be a thread about an issue with Master slides but I don't know if this has been resolved.
    I'm hoping it's an error on my part (which someone can hopefully correct me on) rather than a bug in Captivate as this would seem to be a pretty fundamental feature when creating courseware.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello,
    To really know the power of master slides and templates I should explain a lot more, but in my previous answer I just tried to explain why your approach was not the right one. In a template you can have much more than just a couple of slides with placeholders, you can have typical object styles, advanced actions, user variables etc. It would really need more than a short answer in this thread to explain all that. And that is different from just a blank slide, because placeholders (keeping all introduced styles) will not exist in a blank project, where you would have to insert text to have the proper layout etc.
    Master slides can have variables inserted in a Text Caption, or even have a rollover caption that can have variables in it. I tried to explain the use of variables in this article, and there are examples to be used on a master slide:
    Using power of variables without advanced actions
    In my blog I'm always using master slides, you'll find links pointing to other articles

    If you work with stencil slides, indeed the user will have to duplicate stencil slides to use them. Captivate is not Powerpoint, which is meant for presentations on the first place, while Captivate is meant for developing software training, soft skills trainings, assessments and perhaps presentations.
    I'm sorry, just wanted to help you.

  • "Film Safe" and "Mark repeated frames" don't seem to work?

    Hi guys!
    I'm new to this forum and new to FCP Pro - though I'm not at all new to non-linear editing (Media100, Avid, etc.).
    A friend of mine is editing a feature film on a brand new G5 (dual) using a newly installed Final Cut Studio. Everything is working just fine except the marking of repeated frames in the sequence. I did my best to find the answers in the pile of books that came with the s/w, then tried to consult with editors around here - to no effect, alas! FCP is not very popular in Bulgaria (it's really a shame!) and the other two film projects that make use of it also have similar problems.
    Can any of you, guys, help?
    The problem in more detail:
    FCP Pro 5 does not mark "on the fly" the repeated frames in a sequence. To be more precise, sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't - and in a single sequence. If that wasn't enough, I'm not able to make FCP mark those dreaded "couple of frames" needed for negative cutting (inless the corresponding dupes are produced, that is!).
    I have really tried to solve the problem on my own using the books and consulting people and have done a lot of testing and trying, so please bear in mind:
    - "Mark repeated frames" is checked in "Preferences"
    - I am using one and the same project and sequence for these tests
    - the computer is G5, dual processor, 1 month old
    - the software is Final Cut Studio, latest version
    - I'm a bit pressed for time, as the editing must be completed by the end of Jan.'06
    I will greatly appreciate your help!

  • Time Machine and Time Capsule don't seem to work well together?

    Reposted.
    I get the feeling there are some serious problems with the combination of Time Machine and Time Capsule.
    This is extremely disappointing, as the idea of a centralized backup device on the network (instead of disks attached to each and every computer we have running Leopard) seemed like such a good idea and a good way to supplement our tape-based backup that takes place with Retrospect.
    In reality, it's a disaster on both Intel and PowerPC systems. All systems and the Time Capsule are fully up to date with software updates from Apple. I have two 1TB Time Capsule units. It goes something like this:
    1. I have a few systems (mainly Intel) that work perfectly with the Time Capsule. There are no complaints and no issues at all. These systems just quietly run their backups as they should. They are the definite minority--maybe one or two have worked properly.
    2. I have some systems that complain from time to time (mainly PowerPC) but will back up with a little encouragement. These too are the minority.
    3. And finally, I have systems that are nothing but pain. These are both Intel and PowerPC systems. They are also the majority of the systems I have. The most common problem is sudden loss of the credentials needed to access the Time Capsule hardware--a user will be going along about their business when the Mac OS asks for the Time Capsule user name and password--after it's already been supplied and backups have been running. This should simply never ever happen.
    Another charming behavior I've seen is corruption of the sparse disk image file that each computer creates on the Time Capsule. Time Machine will complain that it can't perform the backup, and examining the disk image file with Disk Utility shows it to be severely damaged. Turning off Time Machine, deleting the corrupted sparse image file, and starting over fixes it. For a while.
    Finally, there are the machines (again, both Intel and PowerPC) that just can't seem to actually get through the first backup run. They either go so far and can't continue, or never actually manage to get started. I've checked the disks in these computers and found no problem with the hardware or file system. The installations are fresh and fully up to date.
    Meanwhile, I have computers running Leopard with directly attached disks configured for use with Time Machine. One is a QuickSilver that isn't even officially supported by Leopard, with a Firewire attached disk. It doesn't skip a beat. The other is an Intel Mac mini being used with Mac OS X Server 10.5.4 and a USB external hard drive. These machines just do their thing, and I never have to babysit them.
    These problems with the Time Capsule have been so severe that I've just given up on most of the computers and shut off Time Machine entirely. We have tape backups that run over the week, so it's not a huge loss. But that's not what really made me throw up my hands and say "enough"...no, that was the speed. Even with just one computer backing up to it, the Time Capsule seemed terribly slow. Watching the progress indicator was just painful.
    I put in a word about all of this to my independent Apple dealer, and they say I'm definitely not the first to complain about some or all of these problems. In fact, they told me they were going to set up a test lab in their shop to see if they could duplicate these findings. I have no doubt that they can.
    There are a total of seven computers backing up to one Time Capsule. They all store maybe ~40GB worth of data including the OS. There are about six computers on the other. Because of the way the network is laid out, the Time Capsule is connected to a Gigabit switch (and that is the only thing it's connected to). It cannot be used as the router, although I know Apple suggests this. The Airport section is disabled--I have no need or desire to use it. Some computers link up at 100 megabits, others at 1 gigabit. There are no network problems--we have no problems moving large amounts of data across the same network to our tape backup machine.
    Is anyone else seeing these kinds of problems? Am I doing something wrong or expecting too much from Time Capsule?

    I may be on to something. The Time Capsules I have live in a telephone equipment room that is indoors but not directly air conditioned or heated. It doesn't ever get too hot to be comfortable in there--the highest I've ever seen the temperature was 80 degrees (F). Most of the time the temperature is between 60-78 degrees.
    I happened to touch one of them the other day while it was in use, and I noticed that the casing was hot to the touch...not dangerously so I suppose, but much hotter than I would have expected.
    So I turned a small fan on both Time Capsules and have left it running. And I've noticed that not only do backups seem to complete more quickly, the reliability is also better. I am going to try some of my most troublesome computers once again just to see what happens.
    I know there is a fan pointed at the hard drive in the Time Capsule, but I can't see how it does much in the way of cooling things down. In my opinion, it's just surrounded by too many heat producing devices to do much good...after all, not only is there a 7200 RPM hard disk in there, but also a 500MHz Marvell processor and radio set.

  • Updates don't seem to work...

    I've been using FF8 beta for almost a month. For the last few weeks there's been an "update available" type popup in the notification area (I'm using Vista) but then the update doesn't load or something.
    1) The "connecting to update server" bar keeps moving, but apparently no connection is made. After a while I close it or minimize it then check later, but no update is ever done.
    2) When I check Help>About it shows just v8.0. So I can't tell if I have a newer build than what I first installed.
    Thanks for any info.

    My current Bridge CC version is 6.0.1.6
    Current Extension Manager CC version is 7.1.1.32
    Current Photoshop CC version is 14.1.2 x 64

    I updated all the above again today. The version numbers were identical, ie unchanged, before and after the "update."

    I'm trying to do something I've been doing for a long time. Change the shape of of square solid. Not sure what to do?

    Nothing really changed. Are you sure that you didn't select roto bezier when the path was created? The other thing that could be going on is that you have created a shape layer with the rectangle tool and you have a rectangle instead of a path. Without further explanation it's going to be hard to figure out what is going wrong.

Press the G key again to bring up the Feather tool if you are working on a mask. Press the V key to bring up the direct selection tool to select vertices or shape paths. Hold down the Command/Ctrl key with a shape path selected to duplicate it (a black and a white arrow head appears) to duplicate the path when you click and drag.
