Question about creating a watermark in Photoshop Windows, but for use in iMovie 11 16:9 aspect ratio

I am looking to get this logo (the whole thing, not cut off on the top and bottom as is all I can currently manage to get working) to use as a semi-transparent watermark for a video I made to highlight the company the logo represents. Anyone have any ideas or might be able to edit it and send it back? No matter what I do the top and bottom are always cut off in iMovie 11. A link to the logo I need to use is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:AGC_Logo.png
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please feel free to email me at [email protected] with any suggestions.
From all the research I did last night I found that iMovie 11 requires the watermarks themselves to be in either 4:3 or 16:9 aspect. I tried using GIMP on my wifes macbook to crop to these aspects but some part of the logo is always cut off, ie: the top and bottom or the left and right sides.
Thank you again in advance!

Thank you. I'll try it as soon as I get home from work. Unfortunately we
have a filter that blocks direct image links. However I forwarded this to
my personal email.
I tried stretching the canvas last night but no matter the size of the
canvas, GIMP still would only allow me to crop based off the size of the
logo itself. I could crop part of the canvas, as well as the logo, but I
could not crop a perfect square. When I did crop the square...(after two
hours of trying) iMovie 11 still viewed the logo as too large and cut off
the top and bottom of the circle.
Hopefully when I get home what you sent will work.

A question about creating packages as local objects in ABAP

Hi,
I have a question about creating packages with SE80. Whenever I create a new package it is assigned a new transport request. After that, I can create new programs inside this package, and each time I can choose whether to assign the new program to a transport request or just save it as a local object (I often do this for test programs that I don't transport and I remove them once my tests have been done).
What I would like to ask is that, is it possible to create a package (and not just programs inside a given package) as a local object? so that every new object created in this package will be considered as a local object?
Thanks in advane,
Kind Regards,
Dariyoosh

Please also check the F1 help for the package field e.g. in SE80, SAP standard is in range A-S and U-X, namespaces start with "/", so you should be save. I am using the T namespace for temporary stuff since a long time and did not have a problem so far.

Thank you very much for this remark, I checked F1 help for the package field and in fact as you mentioned these ranges are for local objects.
Once again, thank you very much for your help.

Question about selecting vector paths in Photoshop

Hi, I have a question about selecting path points in photoshop.
This is the setup. I have a vector shape layer (the redi circle). but that's placed inside a group with a vector mask (the black pentagon). What I want to do is select parts of the red circle using click and drag) so I can modify portions of the circle).
This is Photoshop's behavior as I've noticed it. Photoshop likes to select the shapes for you, and will target layers on its own when you use the Path Selection Tool. It tends to want to select the top most shape. If I target the shape layer first, I can use the Direct Selection tool to select individual points. I can add selected points bu shift+clicking.This is all well and good.
If I try to select multiple points using click+drag though, it gets a bit weird.
If I try to click+drag to select multiple points from within the vector mask (from the black), it will fail and select the vector mask. If i try to click+drag to select multiple points from outside the vector mask (from the white), then it will allow me to select points from my vector shape like i intended.
I could also shift click to hide the vector mask, and it will work the way i want.
Is there an easy way to tell photoshop not to auto target vector shapes? or a better way to select paths inside vector masks?
Thanx for any input

Sure.
Simply click once on the vector mask for the shape layer (red circle) to highlight that vector mask in the Layers Panel. Then when you click-drag the anchors of that path will be selected, not the group's path.
If you have no mask highlighted, Photoshop assumes it should select the first path it comes in contact with.

Hello , I want to ask some question about ipads \ How powerful is the iPad? How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web? Can you identify any shortcomings of the device? please help me :(

Hello ,
I want to ask some question about ipads \
How powerful is the iPad?
How useful is it for reading books, newspaper or magazines or for surfing the web?
Can you identify any shortcomings of the device?
please help me

it's less powerful than your average computer. THink of it like a netbook but with a better processor.
It'll do fine for surfing (although if you browse a lot of flash based sites you will need to get a third party browser since safari doesn't accommodate it)
You may do OK on reading books, papers or magazines, especially if they have apps, but the ipad's screen is backlit, so it doesn't work well outdoors and you may need to fiddle with the brightness so that you don't get eye strain (it's just like doing too much reading from a computer screen)
I would say the biggest short comings are data transfer. Apple's preferred work flow is that everything is done via iTunes or the internet....well people dont' always have 100% reliable always on internet access so you can find yourself in a situation where you can't get things on/off the iPad.
By and large, it's a good device for day to day stuff, but is not a computer replacement.

How do I create/host interactive articles with embedded video for use in browsers?

I'm seeking a little guidance -
How do I create/host interactive articles with embedded video for use in browsers?
The aim is to bring together video, design, images and writing in one place. A little like Born Presents, but very accessible and user friendly.
I'm happy using InDesign but want to create interactive articles / magazines that have embeded video files as required. I've been looking at .SWF files but I've come unstuck.
I want people to view the articles via a blog, ideally with them opening in a lightbox style viewer. It's not intended for tablet viewing and people should be able to view and interact with the files with little effort on their part.
I think I know how to create these files within InDesign, but I'm not so hot on web design and I'm not sure how to host these online. Does this start coming into the realms of Flash?
If anyone could point in the right direction I'd really appreciate it - Thank you in advance.

Questions about creating a foreign key on a large table

Hello @ll,
during a database update I lost a foreign key between two tables. The tables are called werteart and werteartarchiv_pt. Because of its size, werteartarchiv_pt is a partitioned table. The missing foreign key was a constraint on table werteartarchiv_pt referencing werteart.
Some statistics about the sizes of the mentioned tables:
werteart 22 MB
werteartarchiv_pt 223 GB
werteartarchiv_pt (Index) 243 GB
I tried to create the foreign key again, but it failed with the following error (Excuses for the german error message):
sqlplus ORA-00604: Fehler auf rekursiver SQL-Ebene 1
sqlplus ORA-01652: Temp-Segment kann nicht um 128 in Tablespace TEMPS00 erweitert
The statement I used:
alter table werteartarchiv_pt
add constraint werteartarchiv_pt_fk1
foreign key (schiene, werteartadresse, merkmale)
references werteart (schiene, werteartadresse, merkmale)
on delete cascade
initially deferred deferrable;
So the problem seems to be, that Oracle needs a lot of temporary tablespace to generate the foreign key and I do not know how much and why.
My questions now are, and hopefully someone is here, who can answer all or a part of it:
1) Why does Oracle need temporary tablespace to create the foreign key? The foreign key uses the same columns like the primary key.
2a) Is it possible to tweak the statement without using the temporary tablespace?
2b) If it is not possible to avoid the usage of the temporary tablespace, is there a formula how to calculate the needed temporary tablespace?
3) Is it possible to modify data in the tables while the foreign key is created or is the whole table locked during the process?
Any help or hint is appreciated.
Regards,
Bjoern

The foreign key uses the same columns like the primary key.Because it's validating the data to ensure the foreign key won't be violated. If you had specified ENABLE NOVALIDATE when creating it then the existing data in the table wouldn't need to be checked and the statement should complete instantly (future data added would be checked by the constraint).

Question about creating a bootable disk image in Leopard.

I have a Powerbook G4 that originally came with OS9, I upgraded to Tiger and recently upgraded to Leopard. The computer is running great but if it should go down what are my bootable options?
1) Boot from the install disk set then load tiger upgrade then load Leopard upgrade? then reload all my programs back on the G4?
2) Can I create a bootable disk image and save it on an external hard drive and then boot and reload everything at once? ( I guess by asking this question I really don't understand what the full scope of a bootable disk image is?) can someone explain...
Which option is better? I am also running __time machine__... what is the safest and easiest way to use time machine to get my software back together after I get the operating system up and running.
Thanks for the advice

Your best alternative is to create a bootable clone on an external Firewire drive.
How to Clone Using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
2. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (journaled, if available) and click on the Erase button. This step can be skipped if the destination has already been freshly erased.
4. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
5. Select the backup or destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
6. Select the startup or source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Of course you can use other software for cloning and backup:
Backup Software Recommendations
My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
5. PsynchX 2.1.1 and RsyncX 2.1 (Freeware)
6. Carbon Copy Cloner (Freeware - 3.0 is a Universal Binary)
7. SuperDuper! (Commercial)
8. Intego Personal Backup (Commercial)
9. Data Backup (Commercial)
For use with Leopard always be sure you use a version of the software that is compatible with Leopard.

A question about creating READ ONLY users.

Dear all,
I have a question about read only user accounts and I would appreciate if you could kindly give me a hand. I have a schema named SCHEMA1. Whenever I want to connect by using sqlplus I run the following:
sqlplus user1/[email protected] SCHEMA1.WORLD is the entry in the tnsnames.ora referring to the schema SCHEMA1.
I need to create a read only user who is able to SELECT all tables and views created by user1 on SCHEMA1 (this user will not modifiy anything at all. The user is used only for a person using SQL queries to read data). for several tables I write the grants explicitly, for example:
CREATE USER user2 IDENTIFIED BY user2;
GRANT CREATE SESSION to user2;
GRANT SELECT ON S001_COR_ECLASS TO user2;
GRANT SELECT ON REF_ECLASS511 TO user2;Is there anyway to do the same thing but for all the tables (because there are a lot of tables and views)? Besides, even with these granted permissions when the user connects with SQL Developer to the database, he is not able to view the list of tables/views in SQL Developer GUI. What causes this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Dariyoosh

Hello Dariyoosh,
he is not able to view the list of tables/views in SQL Developer GUIyou can either go to "Other Users" - user1 - tables. There you see every table you have permission to select.
Or you can create a synonym in schema2 for each table in schema1 and set a filter on the tables node of user2 "Include synonyms".

Some questions about creating web animations with lighter data and exporting to vector Flash format.

Hi, I will be creating animations in After Effects mostly using Illustrator vector files and will be exporting to SWF or XFL for using the animations on the web.
One of the priorities is light data as possible to provide viewers with slower connections with better experience. However the animation should also impress and I need to find a balance between performance and possible imagery. The animations may have sound and voice narrative.
I need help with understanding which type of non-vector data is heavier than others. Non-vector image data or sound and voice? And from non-vector image data is some of it lighter or heavier than other - for example motion blur vs smooth gradient vs many colors?
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions, tips, pointers, etc.,

Let's do a little "Myth Busters" on that one, shall we?
Vector data is per se not "lighter" than pixel data. You could have complex paths for which storing the information of the individual nodes takes up more space than a pixel image of the object.
Dynamic rasterization of vector data costs CPU performance and may in effect make things more slow than just playing a series of pixel images. That would apply to anything from path strokes to gradients.
All your pretty AI vectors don't mean anything if they are constructed in such a way that either AE or Flash need to rasterize them on import. Anything from converting Bezier paths to paths consisting of dense linear segments to converting fills, patterns, gradient meshes and so on to pixel data
Pixels are pixels. It does not matter whether they are gradients, mothionblur or just non-antialiased shapes. Flash doesn't care and neither image format that may be used in Flash stores any more or less info. They only differ in their methods, but in the end it's for you to decide whether you use JPEG, PNG8 or PNG24. They all have their pros and cons.
It makes a difference, if data is embedded in an SWF or if it is externally linked just as it makes a difference whether you enforce audio sync or not, playing every frame or not.
So for all intends and purposes, it's still up to you to make up your own mind and find the best solution. And Rick has a point - if you're really that concerned about efficiency, then do it in Flash or Flash Catalyst and consider the options there that may help like GPU accelerated layer styles for drop shadows etc., dynamic text or your vector data remaining vector in teh first place.

Beginners question about creating first database and tables

Hi all,
i recently have installed 10g express edition, because i want to transform my php-script from mysql to oracle database. (due to the fact that mysql is "not allowed sofware" at the company i work for).
it is a quit small script, just a shift-report system, build because of frustration about an used shift report system based on excel sheets. Company likes it, but IT-department rejected it, because it is myssql. They do own a lot of oracle servers, so they set up a database for me, got a username and password.(Tnsnames entry). The rest i have to do by myself, no further support from IT department.
I have made 2 simple php functions to connect to database:
// for connection home server:
function conn()
     $user = 'user';
     $password = 'password';
     $conn = oci_connect($user, $password, 'localhost/XE');
     return $conn;
// for connection at work:
function Xconn()
     $db = '(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = xxx.eu.xxx.com)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = NVGPP)))';
     $user = 'xxxxxxxx';
     $password = 'xxxxxxx';
     $conn = oci_connect($user, $password, $db);
     return $conn;
}I just add or remove X character before function name, for use at home or at work.
both do work fine.
First thing i wanted to do, is to create my database and tables.

How do i create this database and tables?
after googling i read something about schema owners, but cant find anything about how to copy my mysql database/tables to oracle.
Please, help is really appreciated by me.

Translating from mysql to Oracle will need a bit of fixups for the DDL, once an oracle instance is created, set up and running, you won't create a database but you will have a database user or users that create/own a collection of tables, indexes, functions, procedures, etc.
It will take a bit of pouring through the oracle documentation to get those table create statements to work, i.e. the engine=, charset=, auto_increment items won't succeed, datatypes need adjustments, the tic marks around the entity names aren't necessary, quite a few other items from the mysql data definition language don't have an oracle equivalent.

Question about creating multiple output files from same query

I have a query like this:
select * from emp;
ename empno deptno
Scott 10001 10
Tiger 10002 10
Hanson 10003 20
Jason 10004 30
I need to create multiple output files in xml format for each dept
example:
emp_dept_10.xml
emp_dept_20.xml
emp_dept_30.xml
each file will have the information for employees in different departmemts.
The reason I need to do this is to avoid executing the same query 200 times for generating the same output for different departments. Please let me know if it is practically possible to do this.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot!!

You can write a shell script to generate the multiple spools files for the same output. Below script may helps you.
#====================
#!/bin/bash
n=0
while [ $n -le 20 ]
do
n=`expr $n + 1`
sqlplus -s system/manager <<EOF
spool emp_dept_$n.xml
select count(1) from tab;
spool off
EOF
done

Also Question about create Random number

What's the best way to create random number in main method, which will allow the number (random) to be stored into content of queue. I was thinking somewhere along the road, is this the appropriate way to handle this?
import java.util.*;
public static void main(String[] args)
        Queue q=new Queue();
Random random = new Random ();
        for(int i=0;i<12;i++)
           q.add(random);


Close, but not quite. That will add the same random number number generator (no random numbers) to the queue 20 times.
Look at the methods in the Random class to find the one that suits your needs for using the generator (the Random) to generate a random number.
