Saving effects that I create

I've keyframed a motion effect on a clip in my timeline, using the Motion Tab on the Viewer window in FCP HD.
However, now I just want to change the clip, but leave all the keyframes, leave the effect intact.
How do I insert a different clip, without erasing the effect?
In Avid, you can drag effect templates to your bin, in other words, save the effect you created. How do you do that in FCP?
thank you

or the other way around ... copy the clip you want to put in and then Paste Attributes (Opt-V) on the clip in the timeline and choose "Content"
of course, if its an effect you want to use over and over again then
in FCP, to create a template effect, use Effects > Make Favourite Motion
this will save the effect parameters into your Effects > Favourites bin, where you can name it appropriately. you can then apply the effect from the Effects > Favourites menu or bin

  • How do I resize effects that I create in the "effects gallery"?

    Part 1:
    I am attempting to use Illustrator to vector a map so I can see detail in zoom as close as 50' to 100'. Where the original scale is about 15,000' by 21,000'. My current problem is setting what I do in the effects gallery (textures, grain, etc...) so that they don't look so pixelated zoomed in to about 50' to 100'.  This map will be used in another viewing program so setting up links will not work. If I need to I can do the map in segments as the entire map does not have to be so detailed, but it would be nice to have one complete map (if possible).
    My basic questions:
    1. How do i set it up so the graphics come out clear at a close zoom?
    2. Is there a place I can get some free mapping textures (different types of stone, marble, earth, concrete, etc...)?
    Part 2:
    3. I have a lot of mapping textures but they are in .png format. I tried converting them in illustrator but they always come out solid colors. What is the proper process for converting/importing testures into Illustrator. I am using CS6.

    Here is what you should do:
    1. Get SharePoint Manager from Codeplex, if you've not already. It's a freeware with very useful feature for people like us.
    2. Run SharePoint Manager as administrator 
    3. Under the site -> List -> Fields, change the property of Workflow field Allow Deletion True
    4. Open the site in SPD, Edit List coulmns, Show Read Only columns & finally delete.
    Hope this helps :)

  • Where do I go to find saved forms that I created?

    Help!!! I spent all this time making my form and now I want to retrieve it!  Where do I go?

    Hi k.k.,
    Did you use FormsCentral to create the file, or Acrobat? If you used FormsCentral, you'll find your form in your account at Adobe FormsCentral.
    If you were using Acrobat, and saved the PDF file, it would've saved to whatever folder you last saved a PDF into. If you choose File > Open Recent File in Acrobat, your PDF form should be listed on the recent files list,
    Best,

  • Help with working on Word files that were created in Framemaker and saved as PDF

    Please help. I was given a pdf from a vendor that they created in Framemaker. The pdf was 2+MB. I saved it as a Word doc so I could delete sections that I don't need for our folks but the file is saving at over 20MB (after I deleted a lot of pages from it). It is so large that I cannot even email it. I've tried to zip it and also convert it back to a pdf and in both cases the file only decreases by a few hundred KB while still leaving it over 20+MB. Any idea how I can work this file to take the sections I need without it creating such a large file size? Thank you. Brian

    The contractual requirements between the vendor and your company may be the key. The contract may or may not discuss whether the vendor's permission to modify the material includes an obligation to make the documents usable. "Usable" may be construed to mean providing original files. If the vendor is required to provide originals, they may or may not be required to provide them in a common format, like MS Word, rather than the proprietary FrameMaker format they use. Their providing a PDF may completely satisfy their obligation; your lawyers may be helpful here.

    I did ask them for the source file but they haven't been forthcoming with that. I may look into the evaluation copy of FM anyway but considering the price ($868 USD through our catalogue supplier) I doubt I would be able to get a licensed copy once the evaluation runs out. I do appreciate the suggestion though. Thank you. Brian

  • How can I get rid of shimmer effect in videos that I create in iMovie?

    How can I get rid of shimmer effect in videos that I create from photos in iMovie?

    Well, not sure - so exactly what resolution do you use to shoot? Go in your camera settings and check. And, is there a settings to choose for regular/extra/fine/superfine quality? I shoot at the highest quality - period. My size/resolution is either widescreen or larger than what I need for the movie. My TV is HD 720p - that means the screen will display 1200 x 720 pixels in HD; if you have a 1080p, it'd be 1920 x 1080. So shoot in a size a bit larger than that because they can be adjusted down without any quality loss, but can't be made larger without significant loss of quality.
    But,again, the problem usually doesn't start until you add movement, but camera quality has something to do with it as well. I know that a previous camera I had was not as good and a lot of my slideshows/movies didn't come out as perfect as I would have liked. So I bought a more expensive camera - shoots in full 1080 HD and I haven't had a problem since.
    As for exporting a slideshow: finish it in Photo to Movie and export to desktop at highest quality (will take a while). Here is a screenshot of my export settings:
    Once done, you can simply choose that movie by going to "import movies" in iMovie and navigating to the location (I usually save to desktop - easy to find).

  • I am having trouble saving my swatches and brushes that I create. After I close Illustrator, and come back later my swatches and brushes are gone.

    I am having trouble saving my swatches and brushes that I create. After I close Illustrator, and come back later my swatches and brushes are gone.

    Once you have a document with the swatches, brushes, symbols that you want, save it as a new Document Profile.
    Document profiles can be found (and saved) in Library > Application Support > Adobe > Adobe Illustrator 18 (if you have CC) > your language folder > New Document Profiles.
    Next time you create a document you will find it in the list of profiles.

  • I would like to create the same mouse over effect that is used on the home page of Industrial Light

    I would like to create the same mouse over effect that is used on the home page of Industrial Light & Magic website. http://ilm.com
    Could someone please let me know what the code or effect that is used. Thanks.

    It appears there are two slideshows running in parallel where a mask that follows the mouse displays one of them.  THe one you see in the moving mask is on top of the other.
    If you were to search Google for a custom cursor tutorial you will probably end up with most of what you need for getting the mask to follow the mouse.  

  • HT5361 I want to delete my Verizon email account but I don't want to lose all of the messages I saved over the years into various mailboxes that I created "On My Mac" in Apple Mail.  Will they be erased / deleted when I delete the account?

    I want to delete my Verizon email account but I don't want to lose all of the messages I saved over the years into various mailboxes that I created "On My Mac" in Apple Mail.  Will they be erased / deleted when I delete the account?

    Yes, it's a POP account.  I kinda thought that the old messages would be safe in mailboxes "On My Mac," but since it's an irrevocable choice, I was reluctant to pull the trigger.  However, the suggestion above from keg55 relieves my concerns on that score; I'll make a backup copy before I delete the account just to be on the safe side.
    Thanks very much to both WZZZ and keg55, I really appreciate it!

  • HT202879 I downloaded the new version of pages about a month ago.  Today I tried to open documents that I created and saved with the new version and received a message that I needed to download the new version.  The app store shows the download.  HUH?!?

    I'm not sure what you mean by it making accessing files more complicated. I have both Pages 4.3 & Pages 5.1 icons in my Dock as well as Numbers 2.3 & Numbers 3.1. I continue to use the iWork '09 versions for my everyday needs. As long as the new versions are in your Applications folder & the '09 versions in the iWork '09 folder, Software Update will not have a problem updating them even if Apple should come out with a new update for the '09 versions.
    Because I have moved the new versions to an external drive & renamed the apps because I want '09 to be the default apps, I do have to remember to move them back to my applications folder & restore the original names before updating. But since you like the new versions this "complication" doesn't apply to you.

  • TS2755 How to I delete messages(Saved) so that I can create enough space for my update?

    How to I delete messages(Saved) so that I can create enough space for my update?

    If by "update" you mean you are trying to update iOS, then the way to do this is to use iTunes on your computer to perform the update.
    Plug your iPhone into (the current version of) iTunes on your computer.  Let it sync.  Then do "Check for Updates" from the iPhone's summary page in iTunes.

  • Issue with using a form saved in ES3 that was created in ES2

    I have a base doc form that was created using ES2 designer.  This file is stitched together with several other documents to create a application pdf.  The file contains javascript, etc.  Everything works correctly when I run the process that stitches the documents together.  When I open the file in ES3 and save it and check it in, the process no longer works.  I get a unable to stich document error.  Any ideas?

    not really, someone else mentioned that it could be done and they said they saw it before.  I've been beating myself up for a while trying to figure out how to get it to happen.   Is there an easy way to get the content of the pdf form into an email body with plain text when pressing a submit by email button?
    Such as...
    <label name>: <txtfield content>
    First name:  <txtfield content>
    ...etc..

  • Help, i am trying to print my JPEG file that i created in photoshop at a photo lab but it is coming out like an X-ray. I have printed these files before so i have no idea what i am doing wrong.

    Help, i am trying to print my JPEG file that i created in photoshop at a photo lab but it is coming out like an X-ray. I have printed these files before so i have no idea what i am doing wrong.
    Could it be something i have done in my settings?
    or when i am saving the file to JPEG?

    Basically you're approaching this the wrong way around. What you need is the extreme sections to be quieter, not louder. The problem with moving the lower end of the audio is that you'll move the noise floor too, and get what's generally referred to as a 'pumping' effect. So what you do is to use a compressor to tame the peaks, and leave the lower level sound alone. When you've done that, you amplify (or normalize to a level you can determine) the whole signal. So the noise floor will be higher, but constant and not pumping. 'Match Volume' is a completely different tool for setting the overall levels of different tracks so that they sound approximately the same - it doesn't even begin to do what you want.
    If it's music you are treating, then I'd almost certainly use the multiband compressor, because you get less artefacts with this. You need to experiment with the threshold levels, and almost certainly not use a massive compression ratio - 3:1 or 4:1 should be sufficient (although it's hard to tell without actually hearing the audio). You can tell what it's doing at any given point because the downward meter indicates how hard it's working. In theory you can apply make-up gain with it as well, but personally I leave that until everything's treated and use the 'Normalize' tool to set an absolute max level.

  • Saving Effects Presets and the new Mask feature-are masks supposed to be saved?

    I'm finding that if I put a new mask on a clip (say a mosaic) and then adjust the mask so it's over someones face, then save a custom preset so I can call up the effect faster when I need it again (ideally just moving the position of the mosaic and perhaps adjusting it's size), the mask IS NOT saved in the preset.  I'm referring to highlighing the MOSASIC filter, then right-clicking SAVE PRESET, giving it a name and having it show up in the EFFECTS panel "Preset" bin.
    Is the mask you create in a filter SUPPOSED to be saved as part of that preset you're saving as mine are not.  It does save the MOSAIC filter and any adjustments I've made to the horizontal and vertical blocks, but not the mask itself.  That seems like an oversight.  I find this interesting because if I've COPY  the clip that paste it's attributes to another clip, in that case it DOES take the MASK with it and I can manipualte, but not when saving as a PRESET.
    I'm trying to determine if I'm having a problem or if saving the mask you create in the mosaic (or any filter) is supposed to save with a preset or not?
    Thank you in advance for your assistance.

    i have the same issue. i applied a mask to the color corrector (3 way) and when i saved the preset the mask did not save. anyone else? help on this?
