Paste table to specific spot on canvas

I routinely move grades from an application that I use for scoring their clickers, into my numbers spreadsheet for their grades. I export from the other application as a CSV file and then open that in numbers. After I have performed a few quick edits, I want to paste this table into the canvas where I keep all of these tables from that application. It is most convenient if the tables paste one below the other moving downward vertically. Sometimes this will happen automatically and it will be as easy as pie. At other times it will insist on pasting the new table to the upper right-hand corner next to the first one at the top. I will then have to move that table down to the bottom of the row. That can get annoying when I have 15 to 22 grades from this application. Is there any way to force numbers to paste the table where I wanted on the canvas or is pasting a table onto a canvas always a crapshoot regarding where the table will land? Any help would be appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Hi jzents,
Click on the canvas below the bottom table, then paste the new table.
Regards,
Ian.

Place images to a specific spot in a template

I am trying to create an action that will drop images into a specific spot in another document and save it with a certain file name. After the first image is dropped in and saved, I want my next image to do the same and so on. I have all my images cropped to the correct ratio and being pulled from a folder on my desktop. I have my template open in Photoshop where I want my images from that folder to be dropped into. Is this possible?
Any help is greatly appreciated!!

What you want to do can be done but it is complex and actions have some limitations and can not use logic without using a script or two. File saving can be tricky for an action will always save the same file name or use the current document name saved either overwriting the file or saving it to some other particular folder. Action that populate a template can be created but it will always populate the same number of images because an action can not use logic to find out how many spots there are to populate. There are different ways to drop an image into the active document you can paste into an area or just past in the image in as a new layer. You can also Place images in as smart objects. Each method has some advantages and disadvantages. Layers can also be aligned with selections and layers can be transformed in size. Your best off creating rule for creating a template and have a plan as to how your going to populate these templates that follow your rules. To protect the template from alteration you may want to dupe the template close the original and work on the duped version. When you dupe the template you can give the dupe a name if you do not name it the new document will have the same name with copy appended.
Scripting is more powerful then Action but they are programs that are written in a scripting language. Photoshop supports three languages. VBS, Applescript and Javascript. Only Javascript is supported on both the MAC and PC platforms. Even using Javascript you may need to code the script to work on both platforms for I'm sure there are some differences in the OS and file system the may need special handling to work on both platform. From you description of you work-flow it is hard to tell exactly what you are doing. If you trying simple create a photo Collage. You may want to have a look at my free Package for Photoshop called "Photo Collage Toolkit" . I have been told this package works on a MAC but I created it and tested it on widows and got it To work with CS2, CS3, CS4 and CS5.
Photo Collage Toolkit UPDATED Sept 24, 2011 added a script to replace a Populated Layered Collage Smart Object Image with an other image with resizing.
Photoshop scripting is powerful and I believe this package demonstrates this.
The package includes four simple rules to follow when making Photo Collage Template PSD files so they will be compatible with my Photoshop scripts.
There are eight scripts in this package they provide the following functions:
TestCollageTemplate.jsx - Used to test a Photo Collage Template while you are making it with Photoshop.
CollageTemplateBuilder.jsx - Can build Templates compatible with this toolkit's scripts.
LayerToAlphaChan.jsx - Used to convert a Prototype Image Layer stack into a template document.
InteractivePopulateCollage.jsx - Used to interactively populate Any Photo Collage template. Offers most user control inserting pictures and text.
ReplaceCollageImage.jsx - use to replace a populated collage image Smart Object layer with an other image correctly resized and positioned.
PopulateCollageTemplate.jsx - Used to Automatically populate a Photo Collage template and leave the populated copy open in Photoshop.
BatchOneImageCollage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Collage templates that only have one image inserted. The Collage or Image may be stamped with text.
BatchMultiImageCollage.jsx - Used to Automatically Batch Populate Any Photo Collage template with images in a source image folder. Easier to use than the interactive script. Saved collages can be tweaked.
Note: Rags Gardner www.rags-int-inc.com Photoshop Collage Template Builder script Copyright (c) 2006 builds layered Photo Collage Template psd files. Rags's has given me permission to include a modified version of his script in my package. The modification converts Rags's layered image template document into a flattened template compatible with Photoshop "Photo Collage Toolkit" package. There is also an option that will instead create a layered image stack like Rags's templates are these are also produced if you attempt to create a template with more then 53 images.
Photoshop only supports up to 53 Alpha channels therefore with its design the Photo Collage Toolkit can only support collages with 1 to 53 images. I do not feel this is a big limitation for if you put 53 3:2 aspect ratio images on a large 16" x 20" paper they would need to be less then 1.9" x 2.86" in size if you wanted a frame around each and less then .95" x 1.43" on a 8" x 10" year book page size.
While the maximum number of images in a collage is 53 you can actually create larger collages by populating a large number of images into several collages and then populate yet an other collage template with these populated collages. Each will be placed into the collage of collages as a single smart object layer. You may want to save the populates PSD file as Jpeg files first to cut down on the overhead of having large PSD file smart object layers in the collage of collages.

Clear. Safari, close it and reset your iPad.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data.
To close an app, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Safari app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Can't record action when I want a logo to be on a specific spot!

Hi there,
When I'm doing colour separations, I want to record an action where logo can be place on specific spots.
I have tried 1 month already, and the action won't allow me to have my logo on the locations I want it to be.
For example, every time say I recorded an action where the logo has to be on X 0.8982 and Y 6.0926, and when I played again it just went somewhere else....
Is there way where I can record an action where I can place a logo on different specific places without doing it manually? Because It could be pain in the *** if the logo is a four colour job....
Thanks

Hey thanks so much for the reply...
I really hope someone can save me from this misery...
So here is the proof.. I have also used the transform panel to position (x and Y) the logos...it worked the first time but after when I used different logo with different shape and size, they just went flying to other places..... All I want is to record an action whenever I have a new logo, it can place right in the center of each circle, and enlarged to 200% in the big circle...simple as that.. Because so far I haven't found a way to make the action thing work (I probably experimented at least 50 actions) so I have to manually place the logo in each circle... I just couldn't figure out, I'm sure it's something super simple like forgetting a button or something. If you have a perfect way to solve this problem it would be wonderful... Step by step please...Thanks so much sorry...can you see the picture?

Adding video fade out or cross fade to specific spot in clip

I have a clip that has a visual glitch at the very end. I want to fade the video prior to the glitch but keep the audio. The glitch happens about 20 frames before end of clip. So I would like to just fade the visual keeping the audio intact, or just edit the video marrying the parts before and after glitch while maintaining the audio. So far I can't figure out how to place a transition at a specific spot in the timeline of a clip. I can only place them between different clips.

Hi
As to Audio
I think that Extract Audio was avail in iMovie 4. Use this (Advance menu/Extract Audio)
As to transitions
Put a black photo (.jpg) at very end - Now You can apply transition.

Audio Preview Mark a specific spot or stop play

Morning,
Using the . in After Effects is great but....
I have been trying to find out if there is a way to mark a spot while im doing an audio preview or even stopping the playback on a specific spot instead of it jumping back to the begining?

"To add a blank composition marker at the current time, make sure that no layer is selected, and choose Layer > Add Marker or press * (multiply) on the numeric keypad.
Note: Pressing * during a RAM preview or audio-only preview adds a marker at the current time without interrupting the preview."
"To add a layer marker to selected layers at the current time, choose Layer > Add Marker or press * (multiply) on the numeric keypad.

Why can't I copy/paste tables correctly? (CS6)

Sorry for having to ask such a basic question. I am new to ID.
I am following this tutorial:
http://tastytuts.com/video/managing-formatting-text-tables-in-adobe-indesign
At 25:10, he creates a 2x16 table into which he pastes a table from iWork Pages. He does this by:
- Selecting the entire table in Pages
- Selecting every cell in the blank ID table
- Copying the Pages table and hitting paste in ID
The Pages table is mapped, cell for cell, to the ID table.
However, when I try this method, only the lefthand side of the ID table is populated. Every Pages cell ends up in the left hand column (the number of rows increases to accommodate them) and the right hand side is left empty.
What am I doing wrong? Is this the standard way of copying/pasting tables? Is there a better method?

Arghh. As far as I can tell, I'm doing all that. It just won't paste properly.
Here's what I do:
Using type tool, I click on the destination frame.
I insert the 2x16 table.
I select all the cells in Pages and copy them.
Using type tool, I select all the cells in ID.
I hit paste.
The only thing I can think of it that ID is expecting the table in one format, and Pages is copying the table to the clipboard in another format.

Pasting tables from Word into Dreamweaver MX

Hi everybody,
Did a search for this but didn't find anything.
I used to be able to paste tables (or individual rows and
columns) from Word XP directly into a Dreamweaver MX table.
Yesterday, I had to reinstall Dreamweaver MX due to a computer
crash and now can no longer paste in Word tables.
The rows or columns being copied simply delete the
Dreamweaver table and get pasted as text only.
Am i missing something like a patch or an update? Is there an
option or preference that can be set?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks speculumcm.
However, Dreamweaver MX does not have a Copy/Paste option
under Preferences.
I have noticed that after the Word table gets pasted as text
(deleting the Dreamweaver table in the process) the Edit option to
undo says "Undo Paste as Text" and not "Undo Paste".
It is possible that somewhere there is a 'Paste' option set
to 'Paste as Text' and not 'Paste the Object'?

Is setup tables are specific to one datasource?

is setup tables are specific to one datasource?we have in sd header, item, if we run statical setup header data stored in header tabe,item data stored in item table,or ALL data stored in one table only?

Setup table are specific to application groups and not datasources.
If you fill setup tables then you filled it for all datasources under that application group.
To check what all datasources comes under which application group.You can check LBWE.
Hope this helps.

Cutting and pasting tables from PDF files

Hi
We use large pdf files for survey data tables (typically 500-1000 pages). It would be very useful to be able to cut and paste tables into MS-Office applictions, but this is generally not available. However, I have been able to cut and paste from another pdf file.
Right click on the selected tables gives two different menus, even though the software is the same (Adobe reader 9). The file I can cut and paste from has a right-click menu 'Copy with formatting', which works fine - the survey tables don't have the 'Copy with formatting' option.
What causes this difference? Is it possible to get the copy with formatting option?
Apologies if this is really obvious - any help gratefully recieved.
Regards
Georges

"Copy with formatting" is available when working with a Tagged output PDF.
If the survey data tables' PDF is created via a reporting app it is most likely not a Tagged output PDF (and likely, not able to be processed out as a Tagged PDF).
Be well...

Pasting tables from Mac TextEdit to InDesign CS4

Hi,
The thread title says it all, really.
Can you paste tables from Mac's TextEdit to InDesign CS4?

Pasting table content will paste as tabbed text. You can place (cmd+d) RTF (not RTFD) and maintain tables.
You will lose custom strokes and a few other formatting elements, but overall placing tables will preserve the integrity of them as you find them in text edit.
