Need some 1337 help. Trying to invert a stabilized scale but not flip it.

So I am doing the equivalent of this:http://www.videocopilot.net/tutorial/demon_face_warp/, with one exception. My camera moves toward my figure so I tracked the scale when I stabilized the footage in one pre-comp and in the external pre-comp I want the footage to scale in the opposite direction of the stabilization so the footage plays the same way it did in the plate with the exception of my mesh warp.
Can you help me crack the code?!
comp("footage24p.stabilized").layer("footage24p.mov").transform.scale
Is the line I get when I pick whip the scale like you do with the other transform attributes. If one of you could write the equation that works it would make my night. So far everything I've come up with only flips it upside down.
Thanks!

Thanks Mylennium,
I believe your math is correct. The only thing that remains is how I would write that in the code:
comp("footage24p.stabilized").layer("footage24p.mov").transform.scale
This is all academic now because I decided since it was one shot I'd scale by hand (sigh) but it's something I would revisit regularly if the process could be viable.

  • Need some quick help - fairly urgent!

    I've just taken over a new job and have been the task of finishing the new brochure for Christmas, there's not a lot to do but a lot of the measurements need changing
    This is the layout I'm dealing with..
    All the boxes have been made in Illustrator
    The text has been done in In'Design and it seems every piece of text is it's own box if that makes sense
    My question is, if I select the whole specification box - copy, paste it into Adobe Illustrator and change the text there, then paste the edited box back into In-Design, will I lose quality when it gets printed?
    I'm worried if I do it this way it may come out blurred? Or am I just worrying about nothing?

    I couldn't find an Illy file in the end and have ended up creating tables in ID to replicate what was already there!
    Didn't take very long and I guess if I didn't do it now, I'd come across the same situation next time!

    There certainly are viable "quick fix" solutions proposed here, and if the dealine is looming and this file never needs to be touched again I might be tempted, but they are only postponing the pain for a file that needs periodic updates, and I wouldn't waste effort on them, myself, when that time can be put toward a proper rebuild now if that's the ultimate goal.

    I AM ASKING THAT I TRIED TO UPDATE MY iPHONE 4 BUT NOT RESPONDING PLEASE I NEED MORE HELPING

    If you are rying to update an iPhone 4 that now has iOS 4.3, you must connect to a computer with iTunes, start iTunes and select the iPhone from the list of Devices on the left side of the window.  Then in the main Summary window select Software Update.  The process will take a rather long time, up to half an hour depending on the speed of your internet connection.

    I have ALL the exact same symptoms as on my home computer.
    It sure sounds to me like something on the iPod is broken. If it's under warranty then I would send it back for repair. If not, check out some of the web repair services, such as iPodResQ etc.

  • TA25361 I have a ton of documents and databases in AppleWorks v 6.0 that I can no longer open on my MacBook Pro.  Is there any way to recover this info?  Some documents can be opened and resaved with textedit, but not my database with all important addres

    I have a ton of documents and databases in AppleWorks v 6.0 that I can no longer open on my MacBook Pro.  Is there any way to recover this info?  Some documents can be opened and resaved with textedit, but not my database with all important addresses.

    I tried Peggy's List > Select All > Copy > Paste into an AW spreadsheet suggestion.
    In my case, pasting into the spreadsheet lost all text formatting (mostly text set to bold). The results of formulas were pasted, and checkboxes were pasted as "on" or "off". The DB did not contain any pop-up menus or radio buttons, but I expect they would transfer as a number showing the list position of the chosen item.
    Pasting the copied List view data into a Numbers table gave a result similar to that with AppleWorks. I selected B2 as the target cell (for top left cell of the pasted data) to avoid any effects of posting into a header row or column. Bold and regular text formatting looked the same as it had in AW's List view.
    Based on that, I'd slip the 'paste into an AppleWorks Spreadsheet step, and paste directly into a Numbers Table.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • How to allow some fixed extension go in from outside to inside but not allow go from inside to outside

    how to allow some fixed extension go in from outside to inside but not allow go from inside to outside

    Hi,
    The ZBF link sent earlier show how we can inspect URI in http request
    parameter-map type regex uri_regex_cm
       pattern “.*cmd.exe”
    class-map type inspect http uri_check_cm
       match request uri regex uri_regex_cm
    ZBf is the feature on Cisco routers and ASA though concepts are little same but works differently. However it is important that you can be more granular with the protocol (layer 7) inspection only. Like on ASA if you will try to restrict .exe file from a p2p application that won't be possible, But on router you have some application for p2p in NBAR and you can use it file filtering. Please check configuartion example for both devices.
    Thanks

    Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
