News Ticker Help

Can anyone send me in the direction of a good tutorial, how
to etc.. on creating a vertical scrolling news ticker for my
website. I am new to Dw and while I have found various apps on the
net for creating news tickers, I am guessing it is possible to
create one myself in Dw rather than haing to buy some cheap little
app.
Any assistance would be very grateful
Cheers
TC

This is a dynamic project. If it is constantly checking for
news and then displaying it, this sounds like a good place for some
spry framework.
It is advanced but you can do it. Go to:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/
for spry information.
Also www.lynda.com has a ton of courses that will help. It is
a subscription site, but if you really want to learn, it is worth
trying for a month for $25, and if you like it you can do a yearly.
You can really pack a lot into that one month though.

Creating a CNN, Sky type news ticker

Hi,
I have a three minute video and would like to add a news ticker that will loop once during the three minutes. The ticker text is considerable. Before I used to use Sony Vegas. A video I created using Sony Vegas is at http://youtu.be/bmcXM7fE6s0 (jump to 35 seconds into the footage for the ticker at the bottom).
I managed to get credits type text (scrolling vertically) with Premiere Pro but cannot figure out the ticker. Although I've done an introductory Lynda.com course on Premiere Pro this is my first attempt at producing something with Premiere to upload to youtube and am a newbie in this product.
I would be greatful if anyone can point me to a text or video tutorial on this item.
Regards,
Al

More detailed steps:
Create a new Title (right-click in the project area, click the icon, etc.)
Set it to the sequence dimensions (the default)
Choose the Type tool (the T symbol) - NOT the Area Type tool.
Click once at the bottom-left of the screen, at the vertical position where you want the ticker to be.
Pick the font, size, color, fill, etc on the properties tree that now displays.
Click again on the small vertical box marking the position of the type box, you'll see it flash as the cursor wakes up.
Copy and paste your ticker text - it must be all on one line, so it helps to copy it from a text editor.
The text box will enlarge to fit, so it'll extend waaay off the right side of the window.
Click the Roll/Crawl options tool (the second icon below the name of the title on the panel tab, a set of lines with a vertical arrow)
Choose Crawl Left, and (usually) start/end off screen.
Click OK and close the titler window.
Drop the new title onto the sequence timeline and stretch it out to set the in/out points, and hence the crawl speed.
If you want a lower third background graphic behind the text (anything other than a plain fill), you'll need to put that in another video track beneath your ticker title - everything in your ticker title will crawl.

News ticker with jquery

Hi
has anyone implemented a new ticker in APEX using jquery?
I have tried to implement the liScroll news ticker detailed on the website:
http://www.gcmingati.net/wordpress/wp-content/lab/jquery/newsticker/jq-liscroll/scrollanimate.html
but to no avail. Firebug is not reporting any errors on my APEX page that I am trying to use the new ticker on and I can see all imported .js scripts that the instructions on the website say to use - but my list just remains as a list.
We are using APEX 3.1.
Many thanks
Paul

I use the following script in some of my applications: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex2/cmarquee.htm
I modified it slightly to use an APEX application item at the following line of javascript:
var marqueecontent='<nobr><font face="Arial"><b>&APPLICATION_MESSAGE.<b/></font></nobr>'See if that will help..
Thank you,
Tony Miller

Scrolling news ticker? Anyone?

Anyone know of an iMovie plugin that creates a decent scrolling news ticker? As in a lower-thirds CNN, FOX, CNBC, etc style- Stupendous Software has one, but it's pretty simple, and Slick doesn't seem to have anything apparent. I could probably use LiveType with FCP, but I'm looking for something that'll save me some time.

Looping News Ticker

Hi - I am trying to develop a looping news ticker. Something similar to stock ticker at cnbc. The challenge I am facing is that it doesn't loop continuously and there is a gap/space between the loops, which looks annoying. Can anyone here help with some example code.

News ticker on top of Keynotes

We show a keynote presentation near the entrance of our company and want to add a news ticker at the bottom of the screen. I saw the option Tulsa wrote long time ago and think this could work for us. The only minor is that I could not find a RSS reader for dashboard that has only 1 line scrolling at the bottom of the screen.
I am not a programmer and don't know how to create it myself, hopefully someone solved this and can help me.

Have done as you said, but only part way there. Can use a Widget, and have developed one that has a simple text crawler. Only problem is you have to embed the text that it displays inside the widget, which is not what I want. The answer I am looking for is that the widget looks up the text it is going to display from a local file e.g. TEXTFILE.txt . For you programmers out there the html is:
<MARQUEE bgcolor="#808080"
direction="left" loop="20" width="75%">file:///Users/mac/Desktop/TEXTFILE.txt</MARQUEE>
but it does not display the contents of the file, but the actual file name.

Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window

Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started 2 days ago. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window?
There is no plus sign and going into optins and changing settings has not worked. I have uninstall FF and reinstall-keeping my personalization-and that was no help.
Right clicking on FF Icon to open a new tab, or going up to FF drop down tab and clicking on new tab both do not work.
Help everything opens a new window not a new tab. there seems to be no way to reset this or to chose a different optin. I just downloaded new tabs at end addon and it didn't do a thing.

as a first troubleshooting step - does it work like normally when you open & run firefox in [[Safe Mode|safemode]] by pressing the shift key while you open firefox (all other instances have to be closed before)...

My ipod touch 5 is frozen on the lockscreen and i cant do anything except restart it and that doesnt hekp. will getting a new screen help? or is there another, less exspensive way? also, it is not connected to wifi.

I need to fix my ipod and i don't know how, i am hoping that if i leave it alone over night that it will fix itself,
its on the lock screen and i cant do anything with the screen, i tried restarting it and it didnt work, so because i restarted it, it is not connected to wifi.
please help.
will getting a new screen help? or is there an easier, less expensive way?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Definition of new search help in report RFBILA00

Hello,
I have created a new search help which I would like to include in the selection screen of the report RFBILA00.
Does anyone know how to include a new search help in this report which can be used in the screen "Dynamic selections"?
Best regards
Peter

Try by extending collective search helps - like SAKO for SKA1-SAKNR - by appending your custom search help.
Then I think when you select GL Account description in chart or accounts it will call your custom search help inside it.

Keynote news ticker?

Keynote can't do what you want directly. You may be able to get the effect you want by using this Dashboard-based technique.

This works fine and I would like to include some dynamic content into this script. Either some page iteme content or even some query results. My java script knowledge is quite "skinny" so I got to ask how to do that?
Thanks in advance,
Denes

Denes,
I just came across your thread.
Just replace within
var marqueecontent='<nobr><font face="Arial"><b>This is where my text goes.<b/></font></nobr>'...
the: "THIS is where the text goes." with: &P1_text.
and you can manipulate the text dynamically.
Ofcourse you hv to create the item P1_text and shortly after you keyed in s.th. and push "Enter" - then the data is in the Session (look at Session in Developer bar).
After "Enter" the ticker/marquee works with your data.
Alternative 2:
Define in Application Attributes under Static Substitution Strings a "GLOBAL_ITEM" with a value: say: my News - then replace &P1_TEXT. by &GLOBAL_ITEM. (beware of the '.' after the item !!! it has to be there !!
Alternative 3:
Work with a table:
A)Define a table called "NEWS" with the fields News_id, text, active_inactive - work with sequence..
B) Define form and report for data entry. In the form go to the item "active_inactive" and modify iot to be a radio-button with LOV : STATIC: Yes,No
C) still use the item P1_text and in the attributes of the item go to "Source" - select "SQL-Query" and key in:
select text from news where active_inactive = 'Yes' - modify the P1_text item as "hidden"
--> now you can manage your news and just the "Active" news are shown.
Advanced: make sure, that only one record is active !!
Have fun !! (:-)

I bought a new MacBookPro moved everything from old MacBookPro, new machine runs 10.6.7 - but iPhoto won't 'upgrade' the library - just hangs up supposedly while writing new library. help. thanks.

i bought a new MacBookPro moved everything from old MacBookPro, new machine runs 10.6.7 - but iPhoto won't 'upgrade' the library - just hangs up supposedly while writing new library. help. thanks.

How did you "move everything" over?
Migration assistance does not handle the iPhoto library well sometimes - the best way is to drag the bad iphoto library from the pictures folder on the new system to the desktop, connect the two systems together (network, firewire target mode, etc) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old system to the pictures folder of the new system and launch iPhoto on the new system - it will open and convert the iPhoto library as necessary and you will be fine - once you test the iPhoto library you can delete the one on the desktop
