Remove fade-ins and fade-outs from titles in iMovie '13?

Hi everyone,
I know we used to use the Inspector to adjust or remove the fades built into titles, but with the new iMovie there is no Inspector and I can't see anywhere to get rid of these **** fades? Does anyone know??

I'm confused.
How is it that this new version of iMovie lacks the most basic ability to adjust text sizes or remove text effects? I'm talking about the ability to just put unmoving, unfading, unflaring, plain-old, simple text of different sizes on the screen. This new version makes it basically impossible to do simple tasks like make subtitles.
For all of its bells and whistles it would be impossible to make a simple, silent black and white film like those people were making over 100 years ago—because the "new" iMovie lacks the ability to do simple intertitles!
I'm talking about white text centered on a black background. In 2014, I can't type white text on a black background and format it. On an Apple product. I can do that on TextEdit, why can't I do that on iMovie 13?
Someone please tell me I'm missing something here.

  • Adjusting songs to start a certain point (removing fade ins and outs)

    I purchased some white noise recordings but they have a fade in and fade out. I was told there is a way to have iTunes start and stop the "song" a point I choose. So that I can remove the fade in and have seamless white noise. How do I do this? I can't seem to find it by just clicking around in iTunes.
    Thanks!
    Jenn

    Select the song file.
    Right click - get info.
    Select the Option tab.
    Set the Start and Stop points.
    You can menu Advanced -> Convert selection to, to add a new copy of the file with these points as the actual start/stop times, leaviong the original file untouched.

  • Fade in and Fade out components from 3d modell onClick self-made buttons

    Hi,
    in Acrobat Pro you can place your own 3D-model into the pdf. Than you can fade in and fade out components of your 3d-model on a acrobat-menü (see images) in the pdf-reader. Now I want to build a pdf with this functionality, but the tricky thing is, that I want to fade in and out the components from the 3d-model not on the menu, but on self-made buttons.
    But how to say the buttons, that they should fade in or fade out a component from the 3d model, like it the menu from acrobat does?
    Thank you for reply.
    Maybe this images will help you to understand my question:

    Thank you very much for your answer. But I think what you mean, is to make a full object visible=false. But what I want to make is to fade out a subordinate level.
    So for example this is my hierarchy:
    layer one
    -sub-layer one
    -sub-layer two
       *sub-sub-layer one
    layer two
    -sub-layer one
    And now I want to fade out the sub-sub-layer one. What is the code for that?
    Thank you very much again!

    I have adobe Premiere Elements 13. It will not let me delete audio or have it fade in or out. I can move the yellow line all the way down till the volume reads -0.0, but the sound is still there on playback. I can click on fade in and fade out and the yellow line that graphs volume takes a sharp raise or dip at the beginning or end of the clip, but there is no change in volume when I play back. What am I doing wrong?

    rickeyt
    Thanks for the reply. Great news about the volume adjusts.
    Now about those fades for the volume. How are you doing that?
    1. Right click the Timeline video audio and select Fade and then
    see the Fade options (I had a video with audio file, so I saw the choices as shown in the screenshot)
    2. You can also create two volume keyframes at each end of the Timeline audio clip rubberband (orange line that goes horizontally across the middle of the audio clip). At the position of the Timeline Indicator, click the Add/Remove Keyframe icon, and then with the mouse cursor position the white dots (volume keyframes) to achieve the Fade In and Fade Out audio. In the screenshot below I have moved the Timeline Indicator so that you could better see the white dots (volume keyframes).
    Please let us know if any of the above works for you with regard to the audio fades.
    Thank you.

  • Can you fade in and fade out the same layer in the same page state?

    I am simulating a lot of touch interactions, and have a hand object that moves over the simllated screen. I want to add small "taps" under the hands to show touch; I can see how its easy to fade IN an object (say a small circle) that represents the touch; but how do I fade OUT that same object?
    Any help appreciated!
    Rob

    Hey Rob,
    I think you can achieve the effect you're looking for by using 'on click' interactions in conjunction with action sequences.
    I just made a simple example, here are the steps:
    1) Select the component you'd like to react on 'tap'
    2) In the Interactions panel, click 'Add Interaction', and select 'play action sequence'
    3) The timelines panel should now be given focus, and display the new 'on click' action sequence
    4) Select the "circle" you'd like to make the fade in followed by fade out effect.  If their opacity is set to 0 at this point, use the layers panel to select them.
    5) With the circle selected, in the timelines panel click 'add action', located at the bottom.
    6) Select 'fade' from the options available.
    7) In the properties panel, define the fade properties (for fade in, obviously set 'from' to be 0, and 'to' to be 100)
    8) Repeat steps 5 through 7, but choose from=100 and to=0
    9) Arrange the fade in, and fade out events on the timeline to get the timing choreography right.
    10) If you haven't done so already, set the opacity of your circles to be 0.
    Does this work for you?
    Is this what you were looking for?
    Let me know if you need clarification on any of the steps.
    Thanks for posting, great question!

  • Very Urgent (How can i add fade in and fade out Action)

    Hi, How can i add fade in and fade out action on the JButton when the mouse is over the button.its mean that when the mouse is over the button then the button's Label is fade in and out.
    plz give code example
    thanks

    If you want to fade in and out anything, you should look at the Composite interface. A Composite is part of a Graphics2D object. You should be able to gradually change this on the button, but maybe within a different thread?

  • Any way to automate text opacity fade in and fade out?

    I am doing a lot of text subtitles, and for each subtitle, I take a text slug, type in the text, then at the beginning of the clip I make the opacity zero, then a second in I increase the opacity to 100%, then I apply "Smooth" to each point and then do the opposite on the tail end.
    Is there anyway to automate the fade in and fade out of opacity so that I can save myself a ton of time?
    Thanks so much.
    Charles

    Several ways to do it:
    • Set the Opacity changes to one clip; copy the clip then Paste Attributes->Opacity to the other clips at one time.
    • Use a Fade In Fade Out transition as the default transition and apply to all selected clips at the same time.
    • Use a filter like Digital Heaven's DH Fade and apply to all clips (Paste Attributes->Filters.

  • Slow Macbook pro, ~1 year old;  Really HUGE Page Ins and Page Outs size, think 400 GB In vs 100 GB Out

    Hi everyone, I have a macbook pro and it's so slow.  After scouring the internet a lot, and CCleaning my computer 359802 times and using Onyx, I finally realized why it's so s low.....my Page Ins and Page Outs are so big.  I have attached a screenshot that illustrates this.
    I am not sure how my computer ballooned to this size, but it makes sense why it's like a turtle and is slower than my 4 year old Sony. 
    Can someone help me?? I am not sure what processes to get rid of and I feel like Google Chrome is taking up huge amounts of my Ram.  I mean yeah I open Google Chrome and run like 8 tabs and have Word and iTunes open, but my 4 years old Sony could run faster than this and I used to open like 12+ tabs on Chrome while running Word, Excel, Powerpoint, iTunes, and VLC on my Sony.  Which was nowhere near as powerful as this computer.  Supposedly.
    My computer Specs are:
    2.3 GHz Intel Core i5
    4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 RAM
    Intel HD  Graphics 384 MB
    Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4
    I would really appreciate any advice to get this down to normal.....since I hear most ppl have page ins and page outs in the MB or even KB.  Right now I'm running Google Chrome, Word, Ppowerpoint, iTunes, and Adobe PDF Reader.  I don't think this should be too unreasonable of work load.
    Thank you

    The problem is not that your page ins are big, as that value resets when you reboot the system. However, your page outs are are almost 25% of your page ins, which means you can use more memory for the applications you run.  A page out is done when memory is full, and the system needs to add something else to memory, so it writes some memory to the hard drive to make room.  The guideline to add more memory is 10% to 15% page outs greater than page in's, and yours are more than that.
    Your MacBook Pro can handle up to 16GB of memory. You might want to consider upgrading to 8GB, which would double what you have today. OWC and Crucial are two sources for quality memory. $42 for 8GB from Crucial, and you can usually find a % off coupon on retailmenot.com.

  • How do you remove plug-ins and cookies

    How can I remove plug-ins and cookies from my computer?

    The exact method of deleting cookies depends on which browser you are using.  But it will be in your preferences.
    Examples:
    Safari: Preferences --> Security
    Firefox: Preferences --> Privacy
    Plugin-ins is not a clear term.  Do you mean extensions or add-ons to your browser?  If so that depends on which browser you use to maintain plug-ins or add ons.
    Examples:
    Safari: Preferences --> Extensions
    Firefox: Add Ons menu
    Do you mean internet plugins like the Adobe Flash plugin?  Those can be found in two possible places:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins  (in your home directory)
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins

  • How to fade in and fade out buttons ???

    Hi guys I am building a website and I need help to fade in/ fade out buttons. Here is an example :
    My main goal is that when I roll over the services button, I want the submenu (corporate and weddings) to fade in. Then when I roll over the portfolio button, I want the first submenu (corporate and weddings) to fade out and the second submenu ( clients, corporate, weddings, etc..) to fade in and to stay like this. Finally when I roll over testimonials, the second submenu fades out. And so on for the rest of the buttons.
    FYI, i know how to animate the buttons to fade in/out but i dont know how to make them fade out when i roll over the other buttons.. I know this can be done with action script but I have no clue how...

    Thanks

    Some things you just have to take the time to unravel and learn.  It's not difficult/complex, you just have to avoid letting the code overwhelm you by its appearance... instead of looking at pages, look at one page at a time, line by line... take your time and follow a tutorial.
    People make tutorials to help those that need to learn, so there's no reason for anyone here to reinvent those wheels for every person that comes along.  If you are looking for someone who'll hand you your solved design, sorry, I'm not that guy.

  • Remove Contribute Menu and Custome Toolbar from Excel

    I've uninstalled Creative Suite 5, and older version 4 of some stand alone products. I've run the Creative Cloud Cleaner. But I still have the Contribute Menu Command and Custom Toolbar in Excel visible under the Add-ins tab. I'm stumped. I can't figure out how to remove them. They're inactive, no longer functional due to Contribute being un-installed. Any one have an idea? Thanks.
    them.

    You may follow the steps mentioned below to remove a Contribute COM add-in.
    Click the File tab in Excel, click Options, and then click the Add-Ins category.
    In the Manage box, click COM Add-ins, and then click Go. The COM Add-Ins dialog box appears.
    In the Add-Ins available box, clear the check box next to the add-in that you want to remove, and then clickOK.Note    This removes the add-in from memory but keeps its name in the list of available add-ins. It does not delete the add-in from your computer.
    To remove a COM add-in from the list of available add-ins and to delete the add-in from your computer, click its name in the Add-ins available box, and then click Remove.

  • How to get plain old S-video and Composite out from a MBP?

    Hi,
    this question is about someone's MacBook Pro he newly bought with adapters to get both DVI and Svideo/Composite Out.
    He got Mini DisplayPort to DVI-D converter, and a DVI-I to video converter, that cannot be plugged into a DVI-D port. Apple removed the analog capability of its adapter, that's bad. But what's badder is there doesn't seem to have any Mini DisplayPort to Svideo/Composite adapter, as there was with previous generation machines.
    How can someone easily output analog video from MBP?

    In fact, I recognize that these standards are old, which doesn't mean they're not up-to-date. Similar example, VGA connector is old, but perfectly useful, even in 2009. I recently plugged a 22" LCD with VGA and DVI on the same computer (a bland desktop PC), and there was strictly no difference. Same color depth, same crisp display. Even looking at a corner with a magnifier, nothing was different.
    So, changing standards just for the sake of it doesn't make any sense.
    Agreed that, as a pro, Apple would like me to buy their pro line, but nowhere in the pro line does an easy solution exists for S-Video and composite out. The solution you posted exists, but is unwieldly and not neat at all, if it doesn't break the Mac's connector under its weight. If a manufacturer can do this kind of adapter, Apple can do it better, and make a bigger profit out of it.
    For the adapter you posted, I don't ever buy anything that is not at least Mac+Windows compatible, or at a minimum is open-source, so anyone with programming skills can make something. The manufacturer also doesn't give a clue on how this works. I guess some sort of virtual driver sits in the system as a virtual IEEE1394 port so any program requiring FW can work transparently. Still, incompatible with the OS that most manufacturer ship their new PCs with, poor commercial decision, wether you like the OS or not.
    Adding FW in the MB unibody design wouldn't have cost anout $30. Rather, we're talking about a 25 cents chip, a 25 cents connector, which they would have rounded up to $20 and still, that was present in previous-gen MB. After all, they are indeed selling a matte screen on the MBP 17" for $50 more, despite them removing a single piece of glass which may cost, well, let's be fair, $5 to manufacture? That's dishonest. And capitalistically justified.
    So far, choosing a Mac for one's needs is no easy task: older white MacBooks have the same power as unibodies, excellent connectivity, top notch transfer speeds, BUT are heavier, as not as ecologically friendly nor do they have future-proof RAM standard. The unibodies are sleekier, easily recycled and will be able to be upgraded in the near future BUT is most likely unable to use current devices and have slower transfer speeds.
    For Pro models, the newer ones have great efficiency, much power and flexibility with their dual GPU BUT lost the option of matte screen, although their other pro-oriented monitors still default to matte. Only the 17" has the option. If a pro already finds his 15,4" bulky and with ample reserve power, will he buy the bigger and heavier 17"? Probably not.
    I understand that Apple way of doing business is keeping only what's essential with no unnecessary options (I'm looking at you, Asus, with you at least 10 different versions of you netbook). But this time, not everyone can find what he or she wants in Apple's line of laptops, as opposed to the iPod thing, where virtually any possible preference is covered.
