Need to select just part of a frame

Hi everyone
I'm trying to select just part of a frame in order to higlight it overshadowing the rest. How could I do it? Thank you in advance!
By the way. I'm using FCE 4.0, not HD, I guess.

Ok, imagine a sequence in which there are differents characters. My goal is to highgliht one of the characters during this clip.
So, what I like the most about your answer is the 'multi-point Garbage Matte' tool. And that leads me to another question . Could I use it in the original clip or is it necessary to duplicate it?
Thanks again!

Select Query: Part of the field

Hello Experts,
I have an issue.
In my selection from one table T1, i need to select just lines that have the field F1 begins by some numbers. For example, all lines that have the field F1 like that '12345678xxxxx'.
The problem is: in my selection i can't use 'Like %' or a range with Option 'CP' because the field F1 is a DECIMAL and not a CHAR!!
In the fact, the field is in the format: 'AAAAMMJJhhmmss', and i want all lines that have the date 'AAAAMMJJ' irrespective of the hour. The type of this field is DECIMAL 15.
Do you have any idea how i can do it?
Thank you in advance.

Could you try to get all data say between 20081211000000 and 20081211235959 ?

How do I print just part of a sheet in numbers

I'm new to MAC and was told that it is so intuitive...
I havn't found that to be true..I guess that it is "intuitive" to someone who wasn't brought up on TRSDOS and Windows... Visicalc, 123, and Excel...
They all seemed so easy to understand... Want to print an area of a spreadsheet? Just highlight the area and print it! Simple.
With numbers, I think their inspector is INSPECTOR GADGET.. You have to figure out every step of the way what it's able to do (or NOT do)
I'M FRUSTRATED WITH NUMBERS... JUST WANT TO PRINT PART OF A SHEET. BUT IT WANTS TO PRINT IT ALLLLLLLLLL.
HELP

Printing of PDF documents being viewed in Firefox is handled by the PDF plugin, not by Firefox, so you'll need to use the "page range" pref in the print dialog for that PDF program if you don't want to print the entire document. AFAIK, Adobe doesn't provide a way of selecting just a part of a page ''(a "selection" from a page as with Firefox on web pages)'' to be printed, but you might want to check that out with Adobe support.

I need to edit out parts of a song to cut it down to two minutes for my daughter's talent show. I went to info/start time and it will cut down one part but only one part. I need to put three parts together. I tried adding duplicates of the song to the list but if If I change the start time on one it will change it on all of them.

In your library, right-click the song you want to edit.
select "get info".
go to "options" and select the start and stop times for your first section of the song.
click "OK".
Find the shortened version of the song in your library. It may take a minute for it to show up. right click it again and select "create (????) version". (the ???? is different for different formats).
The library will spit out a new, second version of the song which you can rename. I suggest you use the original title and add a 1 to the end.
Now you can go back to the other version and repeat the process with a different start/stop time.
Once you are done editing, you can burn all of your versions to a disk, just make sure your interval time is zero so there are no gaps between edits.
To keep the orginal song on your library, just go back to the original and put the start/stop times back to the original settings.

How can I selectively amplify parts of a track?

My apologies if i'm not using the correct parlance, however I'd like to selectively amplify parts of my track that fall within a particular threshold without affecting anything else. For example, I have sections of my track that fall between -6dB and -9dB. I would like to amplify only sound within that range by +2dB. How can I do this? Or, if it'll just "sound better", how can I amplify everything lower than -6dB to be "a little louder" without affecting anything else?
Note that I have already applied compression to my track to bring the peaks down a bit (thresh = -6dB, ratio = 2:1); that was the first half of what I want to accomplish. The amplification question above is the other half. I'm not interested in having the compressor do all the work; the results have always been severly clipped audio.
Any assistance is much appreciated!

What you have already done to your track to reduce the peaks is "downward" compression. What you need now is a little "upward" compression to bring up the level of the -9 to -6 range. Audition's Dynamic Processing is quite good for this as you can either draw on the graph or enter values for various levels in the audio.
Alternatively "parallel" compression might be appropriate here. There is an excellent article on how to do it in the latest edition of Sound on Sound mag.

Best Way to Select Complicated Parts of Image?

I'm trying to design a cover for a book and usually do the whole thing in Photoshop, which I know very well. I rarely use Illustrator and made the mistake of purchasing a graphic ornament I thought would be easy to alter, but has turned out to be quite complex, or at least complex for me. All I want is to move the inner loops on the ornament toward the frame (make them smaller so that I'll have more room for the title, and to shorten the bottom loop so it doesn't hang down so far into the rest of the cover. Being an illustrator novice, I thought this would be a simple adjustment (i.e. direct select and tap the arrow keys a few times), but this graphic is made of dozens, maybe more than a hundred, parts grouped and regrouped on two layers. Nothing is labeled and even figuring out what part to select and how to select it is really confusing. Sorry, this is probably a seriously stupid question, but is there any way to simplify an illustration so that I can more easily select the parts I'm interested in adjusting? I should probably just go purchase a different ornament, but really like the look of this one. Thank you!

Thank you. I worked with it last night for hours, and tried something similar, but kept messing it up. I don't think the designer intended for it to be edited that much. For instance, just to change the colors would have taken forever, since all the pieces are slightly different. I gave up and bought another one that was simple and editable.

How can I select just the clips, or just the transitions?

If I have a timeline with 50 or more clips (or still shots, in my case) with cross dissolves between each one, I would like to select just the clips, or just the transitions, but not both. How do I do this?
Why? I am creating a video with hundreds of stills and a few video clips, and occasiionally need to change the duration of all stills at the same time (from 3 seconds to 4, for example). Or, if I want all of the cross dissolves to last 1:15 instead of 1:00, it would be nice to select and change them all at once. However, in both cases, I can't figure out how to select all 50 without having to Command-click 50 times.
Any ideas you have will be appreciated.
Bart

To perform the same duration change on just the transitions (cross dissolves, in this example), this technique will work:
Open timeline index.
Enter "cross" in the search box (or whatever transition you're wanting to change).
Select all cross dissolves in list (click one, then type Command-A).
Click the time strip in the top of the timeline area.
All of the transitions in the list should now be selected in the timeline.
Control-D to change duration.
Enter new duration.
Hit Return.
I hope this saves someone all of the time I spent on it today. I'm still ahead, though, thanks to Tom's help. This saved litterally hundreds of Command-clicks.

AND Dcaaccountallocation.ACCOUNTID = AccountDetails.ACCOUNTNUMBER
AND DebtEpisodes.DCAORLAWYER = 'DCA'
This returns 1 row of data
However if i run a small part of the above code...
SELECT *

WHERE Dcaaccountallocation.dcaid = 41
AND Dcaaccountallocation.status = 2
It returns a lot of rows with a status of 2
Now i presume what I am going to do is to ensure that all the fields provide satisfactory requirements, with regards to the above code. Although I have many records in all the stated tables already.

Using applet to select a part of an image and then save it

Hi ,
I want to use applet to select a part of an image and then save that particular selected part to a server. can anyone provide me a code for this. I have found codes on the sun site which help in uploading an image but I am having trouble in trying to select a part of the image.

Sorry to get back to you so late, but I was away from my computer this afternoon.
I'm not sure just what you are after. I do see that you have positioned the tree on the labels. I went to the web site for the label company, and their instructions are not too helplful.
http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=15sBkl9OZE9xSkHoLMxgwjTFv2VCg1
I changed the white portion of 1 label to black - - this can be any color. To do this use the magic wand tool, tolerance=10 worked for me, then go to Edit>fill selection.

How to select different parts of the text? cmd button no longer does that...

After installing Maverics i can no longer propertly edit my work as I cannot mark different parts of text using cmd button. Shift works as before for highlighting all the text from starting point to selected point but I can no longer use cmd to highlight different areas of the text. Is this an OS bug? Or was the button for selecting different parts of the text changed? I tried everything...

It's just a small part of what makes Pages 5 so "stunning" (Apple's word). You think stripping out the nifty ability to mark non-contiguous passages of text was neat? Sure that was nice. But Apple has gotten rid of more, so much more. And for free!
Just wait till you put the product through its paces and you discover other nice features that are missing, such as (but not limited to):
- no linking of text boxes! Yes, that's right. Now a newsletter that had a "continued on page 6" or whatever will be broken by Pages 5. Stunning! (Even more stunning, Pages 5 will strip out all sorts of formatting from documents created with Pages 4.3 and it will do ao without warning and will save the document in a NEW unified file format so that it cannot be opened by Pages 4.3, thereby potentially losing users hours and hours of work. Stunning!
There's more!
- Pages 5 has no mail merge, no bookmarks, no images in headers/footers! Pages 4.3 has those features, but this stunning new release removes them.
- Pages 5 features vastly reduced and simplified set of templates (there used to be about 130 Apple-cupplied templates, now there are about 60).
- Page 5 also boasts NO RTF SUPPORT, so a paper your wrote with Apple's own TextEdit is not natively readable with Pages: Stunning!
- No detail was too small to omit in this stunning new release: the vertical ruler, so you can easily place text or an obejct at a certain place in a document: gone! Setting the default zoom: gone! Status bar reproting word count and pagecount (e.g., Page 4 of 48): Gone! View comments in the left side bar: Gone! Autocapitalization: Gone! Search & Replace: drastically simplified!
But here's the really good news: Pages 5 is just PERFECT for creating a one page-poster advertising a new concert by Apple employee Eddie Cue. What's more you can collaborate on it with someone else, even if they're using a PC. Now that's "stunning"!

HT1751 Question: Is it possible to move just part of my iTunes content (i.e. TV shows) to an external harddrive, keeping the rest of the content in place? Several seasons of TV shows are taking up 102 GB of space, and I'm completely out of space on my HD

Is it possible to move just part of my iTunes content (i.e., only TV shows), keeping the rest of the Library in place? I have purchased several seasons of some TV shows, which take up 102 GB on my harddrive, inside my iTunes Media Folder. I don't want to move my entire Library of music and apps etc to the external harddrive (HD), but I rarely watch the TV shows, so wouldn't mind them being located on an external HD, which I would plug in before trying to watch the shows through iTunes?
Any advice?
Thanks!

I don't think you can simultaneously have two libraries open. But you can have your media spread across multiple disk drives. Just change your iTunes preferences such that the option "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" is not selected. That way, new items can remain on your external drive if that's where you add them from.
The only caution is if you ever add items to your library from some "temporary" location, such as a USB drive. With these preference changes, iTunes would keep the native file on the USB drive, which would possibly lead to you deleting the file and losing the link. So, when you have your preferences to allow you to add new items to iTunes without copying them to the iTunes Music folder, you would want to put the native files in the desired location first, then add to iTunes.
To move existing videos and podcasts to the external drive, you can either do that as you have been (moving the native files and correcting the ! warning), or simply delete them from the library (but keep the native files) then re-add them from their new location on the external drive (you'd lose play history and ratings though, but may not be an issue for videos and podcasts).

When I select a part of a text and click in "Search Google", a new tab is opened. I don't like the switch. I want the search result in a background page.

When I select a part of a text in a page, use the right button of mouse and click in "Search Google for "the text"", I want a new tab open in a NEW TAB BACKGROUND. How do I set that? Thanks.

Ok, I found a reply about it in

Removing light reflex in part of the frame of video

Hi
I need to remove some light reflex in my video (sample picture below).
I cannot open the AVI / MOV files in Adobe Photoshop Elements 10. Is there a chance to make this correction (limited to the small part of the image) using Adobe Premiere Elements 10 or Adobe Premiere Pro CS6?
How should I do it? These are some 3 frames.
Best regards,
Michal

Was the camera on a tripod?
If so, you can easily mask out that part of the frame and use the Levels effect to cut the glare..
Because of the horizontal portion, you probably need to use the 16 point garbage matte. There are actually 9 points so the 8 point mask won't do the job as well. You could use a track matte, but it won't allow you to animate it as easily if it is necessary.
I put the image on track 1 and a copy on track 2. I applied the garbage matte effect and the levels effect to track two.
If the camera was not on a tripod, you can animate the matte but it is going to take a lot longer.
I created my matte with both images showing, but if I poke out the eye on track one this is what I see:
Did I understand it correctly? Is this what you wanted to do? I didn't make the window frame too dark. You can still see some highlights, which is as it should be, I think.

I just got a white frame in the middle of my images in viewer mode. What is it and how did it get there and how do i get rid of it.

I just got a white frame in the middle of my images in viewer mode in Aperture 3. What is it and how did it get there and how do i get rid of it?

Just fishin' ...
Is by any chance "View→Show focus points" checked?
Does the frame persist after closing and re-opening Aperture?
Notice anything else different?
To post a screen shot, you first take it, them upload it. To take them, I use and recommend Skitch -- one of the best little apps ever. But this ability is built into OS X. Use Grab or Preview (search OS X Help for full directions). In Preview, use "File→Take screen shot ... →From selection ... ". Save the file in Preview to your drive. In the Discussion forum click the "Insert Image" icon (a camera) and select the file you created in Preview.
