Problem getting canvas & timeline to display

The timeline & canvas will not display when I open up FCE. FCE has worked great until now...
FYI - I tried the following to correct this problem:
1. Resetting the display mode (windows, arrange, standard & small windows). Note - The canvas & timeline listings in the drop down windows menu were unchecked & displayed in light gray.
2. Reloaded FCE & checked for software updates.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!!!
Thanks in advance!

Hi Al -
*Thank you very much! You solved my viewing problem!!!!*
FYI - To ensure that I am able to view the sequence "automatically" every time I open up any of my clips, I will save each project when the sequence is opened.
Not sure what I did differently to cause this to happen recently, but now the problem is solved.
*Thanks Again!!*
Regards-
Dan E.

  • Problems getting other computers to display my mp3 pla

    When I plug the device in on other computers that don't have creative explorer installed on them, it shows that the device is recognized and it want to find a driver for it. It also does not display on my computer when the screen is opened as a device. Does anyone know what I can do?

    Yes I am running the latest firmware and drivers. All the computers that I use are windows xp professional and my computer also runs on windows xp professional.

  • T61 Problem: Getting external monitor to display 1920x1080 through VGA

    I've got the Nvidia 195.62 drivers, but windows still shows a max resolution of 1600x1200 for a 1920x1080 lcd screen.  I'm using the VGA out.
    This is frustrating.

    Which windows version do you use?
    I think if  windows recognizes your monitor, it would be okey.

  • Canvas won't display video, only see black w/ audio

    I cannot get the timeline to display video. This happens randomly when insert new clips into the timeline or change the length of current clips in the timeline. I'm working w/ .mp4 video and about half of the footage is SD, but I'm working on an 1080p timeline since I will have 1080p footage. Any thoughts? I'm working w/ a discrete graphics chip so I don't think this is the problem. The canvas works great on my other projects, it's just this one project. I'm lead to believe its the SD, but Ive tried switch the project to an SD timeline and it didn't solve the problem.

    Tom,
    Thanks for the reply. Graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 512 MB and was listed on the link provided.
    The specific information on the clips are this:
    And the project properties are:
    Side Note: I can solve the issue if I cut and re-paste the entire project in the timeline. Slightly annoying, but will last unitl I change other clips

  • Problem Getting Video to Display on TV since Switching to OS Lion

    Previous to switching the Lion OS, I used my MacBook Pro to display DVD's and iTunes videos on my television using the mini-display port HDMI adapter and HDMI cable.
    Since switching to OS Lion, I cannot my computer video screen to display on the television.  When I look at "Display" in the System Preferences, MacBook Pro seem to recognize that is connected to another display output yet my television screen remains black.
    Has anyone else had this issue?  Is there a setting that I need to change on my laptop?
    Thanks!

    I was having this same problem.  I noticed the display screen button at the top of my laptop screen near the volume and network buttons. It's the one that looks like a small TV.  The display button only showed the resolutions to choose from but then I tried conecting the HDMI cable and selecting that HDMI port on the TV when I turned on the TV.  At this time the little TV display button at the top of menu offered an option called "turn mirroring on".  I clicked on that and the display came on the TV.  It seemed too simple but I hope this helps you.

  • Problems with getting repeating patterns to display properly

    Using Oracle's Map Definition Tool I am trying to import repeating patterns through the "import image" functionality, found under "map metadata --> styles --> area", but I am having problems getting them to work properly (i.e. they don't repeat as they should). Part of the problem is the poor quality of repeating patterns images that where send my way.
    Therefore I have 2 questions I hoped someone here could answer me:
    1) Is there an easily accessible collection of decent+ quality repeating patterns somewhere on the web where I could look for patterns to use?
    2) What is the image resolution used by the Oracle Map Definition Tool, or in other words, what is the minimum resolution I need to make sure the pictures are to make them downscale properly to a single pattern image through the "import image" functionality?

    For starters, you could try any of the pattern images/icons available in your popular word/graphics applications such as Word, Powerpoint, or Adobe. For instance in PowerPoint you can find a set of Patterns under Format Auto Shape > Fill > Fill Effects > Pattern. You can generate your own pattern images that closely follow the design of these from PowerPoint.
    When you import an image, as long as you make sure the preferred width/height of the image is set to identical with the real width/height of the image itself, MapViewer will not attempt any scaling during rendering, thus preserving the native resolution of your pattern image.

  • When using Final Cut Express, the video in the Viewer window looks fine, but when I insert the video into the Canvas Timeline it appears to lose resolution, and look fuzzy and blurry. Are there preferences or settings for the Timeline that cause this?

    When using Final Cut Express, the video in the Viewer window looks fine, but when I insert the video into the Canvas Timeline it appears to lose resolution, and look fuzzy and blurry. Are there preferences or settings for the Timeline that cause this?

    Thanks David. I had to convert the mts file to Quick Time (using AunSoft Conversion software) before I could import it into Final Cut Express. And I made sure I kept the size of movie (720 X 480 with letterbox) to compliment what I set my Panaconic AVCCAM video recorder at (720/60). Even after I fully render it, it still looks fuzzy in the Canvas window at the right that plays what I have editing down in the Timeline. A friend that edits some using Final Cut Pro helped me to narrow things down to this problem. This is also wierd. If my Viewer window at the left is set to 200% to get the person's head the same size in the Canvas window at the right we needed to put it to 400%. Does this make any sense. We think we need to control the Time line resolution somehow but cannot find any options from my manual, or the help, or in the various drop down menus. Do you have any clue? What is going on?

  • Any way to get Illustrator CS5 to display full screen mode like Photoshop?

    Is there any way to get Illustrator's screen modes to behave like Photoshop's screen modes?
    One of the things I like most about Photoshop is the way it toggles from standard screen mode to "full screen with menu bar" to just "full screen".
    For example, in Photoshop's standard mode, the window is no bigger than the size of the canvas. Why can't Illustrator do that?
    And, is there anyway to get Illustrator CS5 to display the full screen mode where the background outside the artboard or canvas is black instead of white. Working in Illustrator for long hours, it would much easier on my eyes if the surrounding background could be black like in Photoshop.
    Thanks very much in advance for any help,
    - Nick

    At the bottom of the Tool bar is a toggle button (F) which will change the Screen Mode.

  • Problem getting hard drives to mount on desktop and also open when they do

    I have a problem getting the iMac to recognise external hard drives - it won't show them on either firewire 400 or 800. I can see my 1TB drive using usb ( it shows up on the desktop, whereas on firewire it doesn't do this) but if I try to open it and see the contents in finder, it opens, but doesn't display the contents of the drive. I can see the disk size but just get a grey spinning wheel in the bottom right hand of the finder window. Timemachine does not work with this drive. it used to but then stopped. It sees the drive but cannot back up to it.

    What brand drive is it? Check to see how the drive has been formatted. From the desktop right click/Get Info.
    If your iMac is having Firewire issues try resetting the SMC: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1543?viewlocale=en_US
    Open up Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility select the external drive on the left hand side and under the First Aid tab click Repair Disk.
    If the drive is formatted for Windows NTFS+ or FAT32 then you will need to erase the drive and reformat it for Mac OS Extended. Make sure to backup any data before reformatting.

  • How do I get a 0 to display when a count = 0 (zero)? (The cell is blank)...

    (Running Business Objects Release 2 (Web-I), No other reporting modules)
    How do I get a 0 to display when a count = 0 (zero)? (The cell is blank)...
    In my reports, I count the number of tests of one of our products and another count on the number of failures.  I then use a simple formula to give me the defect rate percentage (DR%)
    The universe objects used in the calculation are:
    Assembly Number (dimension)
    Human Sn (dimension)
    Test Code Description (dimension)
    I created a variable (called [Count Assys]) that counts the number of Assemblies Tested:
    Formula: =Count([Assembly Number];All)
    Another variable (called [Failed Count]) counts the number of failed tests:
    Formula: =Count([Test Code Description];All) Where ([Test Code Description] <> "FUNCTIONAL TESTS PASSED")
    NOTE: There is a "not equal to sign" between [Test Code Description] and "FUNCTIONAL..." above, but the forum is blanking it when I preview the message.  Not a big deal, but it may be important for someone looking to help...
    I then have a third variable called [DR%] that divides [Failed Count] into the number of [Count Assys], which yields a number formatted as a percentage.
    Formula: =[Failed Count]/[Count Assys]
    The above works great! 
    The problem is: when I have a zero defect count (everything passes), the cell is blank, so the percentage variable remains blank.  I want a zero (0) to appear if nothing failed so the percentage appears as 0%
    I've searched this forum completely and have tried several Properties changes and different variable strings (like =If([Failed Count]<1,0) and the cell stays blank and cannot come up with an answer.
    This one seems simple to me, but everything I've tried has yielded zero <smile> results.
    Thanks,
    Charles

    Hi Charles,
    Use [Dr%] Variable formula as =if(IsNull([Dr%]);0;[DR%])
    Here IsNull returns the Boolean value of variable [Dr%] if its true then inserts 0 else the percentage values of failed tests based on the  total number of assembly tests performed.
    I Hope this is what you want to achieve....
    Thanks....

  • I'm running iTunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro and software 4.1 on my 2g iPod touch and having problems getting photo's to sync. Same error iPod can't be synced req'd file can't be found. Tried deleting the photo cache, restoring the iPod etc but to no avail.

    I'm running iTunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro and software 4.1 on my 2g iPod touch and having problems getting photo's to sync. Same error, "iPod can't be synced req'd file can't be found". Tried deleting the photo cache, restoring the iPod etc but to no avail.

    Try here:
    iTunes: Unable to sync photos
    Usually deleting the iPod Photo Cache Folder works. Note that if you sync via the folder method, make sure you dlete all the ifolders since :
    The iPod Photo Cache stores the photos that are optimized for display on your iPod, iPad, or iPhone. The location of this folder depends on the syncing options you select. In iTunes, if you change the selection in the “Sync Photos From” pop-up menu, a new iPod Photo Cache folder will be created (and the previous folder will remain).

  • Problem refreshing canvas when multiple windows and canvasses.

    Ok I Have a form that has 2 windows and 2 canvases.
    They both get populated on When new Forms instance trigger with a parameter i pass in from teh previous form.
    On entering the form if the parameter is set (passed in by the form before) it should query the blocks on canvas 1 and display the second canvas/window via a seperate package of "canvas.open" which is a package to open and populate the second canvas which is a tree.
    If this code is fired on a key next item or a button press its fine. but not where it is on when new form instance trigger. The canvas.open simply stops on a synchronize early on. If i remove a sync then the second canvas never appears.
    You can see a commented out pause. If this is included then it all works fine. If i use a synchronize instead of the pause it doesnt even reach the canvas.open (i used messages on status to work this out)
    So my question is how can i get a synchronize to work as i assume this is whats missing?
    Any help much appreciated, Im sorry if i have not explained very well.

  • How do I get song lyrics to display?

    How do I get song lyrics to display on my iPod Touch 4g and iPad 2?

    The word "lyrics" is never displayed, but if you paste lyrics into a song, they'll be shown when you press the centre button "enough" times. Note that if there are _no lyrics_ associated with the song (because you didn't put them there) the "button pushes" will take you from On/Off (the shuffle feature) to Play - no mention of lyrics!
    I hope that helps!

    You can create and use a Canvas. (and define the Paint method)
    Canvas c = new Canvas(){
            public void paint(Graphics g){
                g.drawImage(img,0,0,this);
    frame.add(c);
