Positioning messed up on different OS

hi guys,
I have two JPanels. The LHS contains a bunch of JButtons going down vertically. The RHS draws the relevant JPanel. Why is it that when I load my GUI on a linux platform, the positioning of the JCobomBox is horizontally aligned with the positioning of the last JButton, yet when I view it in XP, the JComboBox is a lot lower. Why? I thought Swing was supposed to be platform independent.
Also, I don't like the look and feel on my Linux machine. It looks really horrible and "boring". Especially the JComoBoxes. Eugh! However, it looks pretty good on XP. Do you think it is a good idea for me to hand code the look and feel into my code so that it appears the same on all different platforms? Or is this bad design?

Just change the resolution on xp and again test.
if you want Look and Feels here is the link

Positioning Messing up

When i use the Position "effect" the layer under it moves as well. Say i move layer #2 which is above layer #3 to the position 1000,360 layer #2 moves the other way the same amount i moved layer #2. Here a GIF (watch it in MP4) http://gyazo.com/f81b5cf00f1e5e742ba243cc230f921c. As you can see at the end layer #3 moves the opposite way as layer #2. I dont know what is going on. Mabey i have something turned on/off but if someone could help me out i would appreciate it.

Im using the built in Positioning effect, like when you hit the drop down arrow then you hit the drop down arrow for the transition. its that positioning.
Okay, let's get our AE Lingo straight: it's like you're writing Swahili, but we read only English.
Position is a PROPERTY found in a layer's twirl-down button. You principally animate it by setting a keyframe, then changing the layer's position values at a different spot in the timeline.
An EFFECT is something you apply to a layer, and there are MANY of them, located in the Effects & Presets panel. You can animate effects, too: once applied, many of the values of effects can be keyframed. And there isn't a "Position" effect, either.
So what are you doing: animating a layer's position or animating an effect that you've applied to a layer?
Some screen grabs of your AE window would be helpful in figuring out what's wrong. Not to mention giving us crucial information, a list of which you'll find here:

If you try to use AE by just messing around with it, you'll get hopelessly lost... as it appears you are at this moment. Blow off learning the basics at your peril.

I am trying to create a simple animated gif in Photoshop. I've set up my frames and want to use the tween to make the transitions less jerky. When I tween between frame 1 and frame 2 the object in frame two goes out of position, appearing in a different place than where it is on frame 2. Confused!

Hi Melissa - thanks for your interest. Here's the first frame, the second frame and the tween frame. I don't understand why the tween is changing the position of the object in frame 2, was expecting it to just fade from one frame to the next.

My macbook pro screen is totally messed up in different positions with the screen

My screen is totally messed up when I put my screen in different positions.
Does anyone know about this problem?
Picture on the screen is just below.
How am I suppose to fix this problem? I have never dropped or damaged my Macbook Pro, its in perfect conditions (besides this).
Its a Macbook Pro 13" Sent 2011

Thanks for the help in advance.

Parts fail - there's likely nothing that you did to make the machine fail. Good thing you've that homeowner's insurance - I have an accidental damage rider on my renter's insurance. Something like $6 a month for up to $10,000 in coverage.
Get the to an Apple Store or AASP... they'll be able to fix it.

Position sensitive output prints differently on different printers

Post Author: dev elopment
CA Forum: .NET
.NET 2003
I am trying to print some text on an Avery 5260 (3 labels wide by 10 labels tall sheet). I have positioned 3 text fields in the report Details section (for a row of labels) so that they print perfectly on my HP LaserJet 1100 and then set the height of the Details section so that all 10 labels high print correctly as well. However when the same report is generated and printed on another printer (tried 4 different ones so far) the output no longer stays in the proper position. Some printers only print 9 rows per page and the 10th row ends up on the next page. Other printers start printing over the label edges after the 1st 3 rows of labels.
Is there a way to make the position of the output stay the same based on the design of the report for all printers?

Post Author: quafto
CA Forum: .NET
This is expected behavior with Crystal Reports because the position of all objects is determined from the printer drivers. Your best bet is to go into the printer options and select the "No Printer" checkbox. This will for the print engine to use a generic print driver and it should produce consistent results.

Fonts are messed up in different ways

I had a hard time getting my fonts to look right last night after publishing my site. After publishing, the fonts which I had placed on my page, were all over the page, just spread all over at random, not where I put them. Some fonts were also not the type of font which I had selected, which was a simple Arial, no bold, no italic, no shadow, no nothing.
The only exception to this font problem was the navigation bars. They were perfect, just the way I had built them, in all pages. BTW: My navigation bars, which I created myself, are in a vertical position (links are up/down. They are not the original iWeb nav bars squished to become horizontal. I just created four links, with simple text, and placed them horizontally.
Anyway, they were the only fonts on the page that were not screwed up.
To fix the other screwed up fonts, I ended up using images of fonts, instead of fonts. The images stayed put, they didn't fall out of place.
So, this morning everything looked fine, as it did last night, until I opened my 13" Vaio notebook. In the 13" monitor, the horizontal navigation bar links, which were perfect last night, are now all spread out, all across the page, from the top to the bottom of the page. They didn't look like that last night in my 15" and 17" monitors.
I've read dozens of posts regarding font issues, but didn't see one solution or workaround.
Anyone know what's going on with iWeb fonts? I'm feeling like giving up on iWeb. It's just way more trouble than I thought it would be.
thanks for listening :-)!!!

My site is screwed up again. Everything was good until I deleted a photo from my main page. Now all the test is screwed up. I tried changing all text to Times Romans No good.
Back to Ariel No good. I made a new blank page and copy and pasted all content from my bad page to it. published that page and it looked good except for a link did not show up.
I'm getting fed up with this. Is anyone else having this trouble???? iWeb09 I just updated my OS yesterday. Hmmmmmmmmm Apple???

3D camera position in rendered video different to camera position in timeline preview

Hi all,
I'm trying out the 3D and animation features of Photoshop for the first time. The model is a free 3DS model. Because After Effects doesn't support importing this format, I'm animating it in Photoshop against a 'green screen' that I will then chroma key out in After Effects.
The problem is that the rendered video output's viewport / camera position doesn't match that in the timeline preview in Photoshop.
In the screenshots below, I've overlaid the rendered video over the 3D workspace. In the first image, the video and timeline preview are identical. However, from the second image onwards, they diverge. (The semitransparent cow is the video overlay.)
The first time I simply clicked on 'default camera' before rendering. The second time, I added a 3D camera position keyframe to the 3D layer and set it to the default camera. The result was the same both times.
I would be grateful for any help with making the rendered video match the timeline preview.
Thanks.

This was resolved by chatting with Adobe Support.
It turned out to be a problem with corrupted preference files in %appdata%\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC .
Moving this folder to the desktop solved the issue

How to use "motion" "position" a lot on different layers

HI,
I have two clips , one on video 1 and another on video 2. I used motion / position on video 2 in order to make a portion of that video move around.
A little later in time I want to make a portion of video 1 to move around. At the time that I want video 1 to move video 2 will be transparent, so I can see video 1, as they are layered right on top of each other.
When I select video 1 (I made in and out points for the part I want to move) with the CTI on the in point, and then select the program monitor, I see the path of the motion from video 2. If I change that it changes the earlier motion of video 2, and video 2 becomes "highlighted" (selected) at the same time....video 1 is no longer selected when I click in the program monitor.
How can I make a new motion in video 1, without affecting the motion in video 2 ??
Thanks

The ability to Lock Tracks is wonderful and can save one from a lot of accidents. That is one great feature missing from PrElements, and it would so very useful there. Still, one should get something for the price difference between the two - eh?
Between you and me, I use the coordinates in the Effects Control Panel to Position/Scale my video Clips. If I am doing PiP work, I will create an alignment/size grid in PS and use those to do my Effects Control. HERE are a few simple ones, and when working with a lot of PiP, I will do custom ones. I also use these for work in Titler, and just click Show Video. Just do not forget to either remove them, or turn their visibility OFF, or they WILL be visible in your Exported Video.
Good luck,
Hunt

Linking same Position ID to 2 different parent postion ID

HI Experts,
I would like to know that can one Position ID created in Investmemt structure be a child to 2 parent Position IDs.

...which I logged into my http://apex.oracle.com workspace, ran the same application in each browser and got the same Session Id in both.
What causes this?
If you login to the development environment in multiple browsers windows that share the same OS process for the browser, you can maintain separate session IDs in each window for the development tools, e.g., the Builder, as long as you don't run an application using a Run Page or Run Application link and then jump back to the development tools using the developer toolbar links. Those links will send you into the Builder using the session ID allocated to the last browser window you opened in which you authenticated to the development environment.

Different color for positive and negative chart

Hi-
I have a spreadsheet that displays data as a 3D chart - I would like to make the Positive and Negative values different colours (i.e below zero is RED - is that possible?
Thanks!
Andy

Hi Andy,
You can assign the negative values to one series and the positive values to another. Here's an example:
Column C in the Chart Data table contains the expression:
=IF(B<0, B, "")
Column D in the Chart Data table contains the expression:
=IF(B<0, "", B)
To create this chart, click on Column Label A, then Command-Click on Column Labels C and D. This sets you up to create a 2-series chart. Then Insert a 3-D Area Chart.
The 2 series are offset in the Z-axis, so some angles of view won't look so good, but you can experiment and find a view angle that works for you.

Print layout is different from the working view.

I got two calendars in iCal, marked with red and green. I always make the green ones as the first one on everyday and the red ones as the second. However, when I printed the scheduled month, some red ones were in the upper positions and it looked different from my screen.
How can I make all the green ones as the first event in the printed version.

You can make objects visible only on the screen by selecting Object => Presence => Visible (Screen Only). You can do the same for printing by selecting the Visible (Print Only) option.
Hope this helps,
Mike

Export for AppleTV - Settings messed up?

I have done it this way before (at least I thought this is how I did it):
File - Export - Using Quicktime Conversion - Format (Apple TV) -- name it and go...
Then drag this file to iTunes, and all is great... I can watch it on my iPhone or my AppleTV.
Last week I messed around with different export settings trying to get a short video small enough to email.
Now when I do the File-Export-etc to get a video into iTunes, the video's aspect ratio is messed up - it looks like it's squishing the 16:9 video into 4:3 - as if I have somehow messed up the preset for AppleTV.
My normal process is that I export 1 for iTunes to watch on my AppleTV, and I export 1 (File-Export-Quicktime Movie (self contained)) to keep as a "master" to burn DVDs, etc if I ever need to.
The "master" is in the correct aspect ratio, so I don't think it's something in the project - it won't play back on my computer, but that is another whole discussion, that I think is computer power related - see https://discussions.apple.com/message/16176561#16176561 if you want more info on that part.
How can I verify the settings that the AppleTV preset is using? Or should I be doing it another way?

anyone?

AAE: how to track eyes to position photos of my face

Hi,
I have been taking photos of my face for already more than two years. Now I am trying to create a short movie with those pictures.
My problem: although I tried to take identical photos I am always positioned a little bit different than the day before.
Until today I used some really basic programs: a foil on my monitor and Paint to move the picture to the right place, Irfanview to trim the pictures and finally Moviemaker to create the movie. You can imagine how much effort it is if you have to deal with more than 800 photos.
That's why I thought I could try it with Adobe After Effects using the tracking function. I already watched several tutorials and read some instructions but because I want to create a movie composed of photos and not movie-clips I didn't find a way how to deal with the problem. My idea was that AAE finds both my eyes, moves the picture to the right position and resizes it if necessary. Finally it should trim all pictures to get a proper shape.
Do you know if that's possible with After Effects or is there another program I should use?
Thanks for your help,
Andy

Won't work. you have to do it manually. AE has no way to detect features across temporally and spatially inconsistent data, which a time-lapse sequence is. There are a few experimental programs out there, but they are usually not publicly available and only research. AE can help you with the scaling and warping by using blending modes liek Difference or reducing opacity just as effects like Mesh Warp or Optics Compensation may be useful for correcting intra-image warping and lens distortion, but it would still require a lot of manual work. Likewise, the panorama merge and Merge to HDR in Photoshop could potentially be used to create some baseline layered PSDs with aligned layers, but you will still have to fine tune everything later.

Report for Two Position

Hello Experts,
Is their any report available by which we can know to houw many position employee is assigned & wat are they with priority.
Also , if an employee is assigned more than one position,does it data pass to PA.That means whether we will be able to see both the positon in PA30.
Thanks.
Viru.

Hi Virendra,
Have a look at the Report RHXSTR04.. Select Reporting Period.. ALL.... and the Status as 1...
When the employee is assigned to more than one position, it checks the priority and the staffing percentage....
It's either way !!!!
Staffing percentage will not be over 100%.....in any case...
In a case where employee is assigned to two positions, with staffing percentages as 50% each, then it checks the priority...
Whichever has got the Highest Priority, it will be visible in PA; infotype 0001.
1. You may test this, by assigning two positions to employee with different variables....of Priority and staffing Percentages....
2. Next, Run RHINTE30 and create a batch run.
3. Go to SM35 and execute the Batch run...
4. Finally, go to PA20 and check the Infotype 0001 to see which position appeared.
Good Luck !!!!
