Scrolling a long list?

I'm sure this is simple - how do you build a long list of names to scroll up the screen, like movie credits?
thanks

If you drag the corner of the presentation window, you can expand it so that it shows "blank" area to the left and bottom of the slide area -- doing this will allow you to see material that starts off of the slide itself. To scroll the text box up, position it so that its top edge is below the slide bottom, set the Build Out to "Move Out", and the direction to "Bottom to Top". Set the duration to fairly slow in order to make the text readable. The Move Out build has acceleration and deceleration built in to it, so you might also want to put some blank spaces in at the beginning and end of the text list in order to make the text scroll speed appear constant.
Another way of doing this is to use a Move Action (from the "Action" dropdown menu in the Build Inspector). The Move Action has the option not to have this acceleration/deceleration.

Scroll through long list (Photo and iPod)

Hi!
I'm the new guy here so be gentle...
Any way to scroll through a long list in iPod or Photo, as you can with Contacts (by dragging up/down on the leters at left)?
I know you can tap and view a single photo then scroll through at the bottom.
When viewing all photos, there is a scroll bar on the right but can't drag it.
Same in iPod.
Drag and flick work but if there is more than a page or two, it's a pain.

+I was hoping maybe there's a three finger, double tap, right swipe, followed by a half clockwise circle to get the bottom/top+
Well, yes there is but then I would have to show you the secret hand shake and swear you to secrecy.
+It's got the slider on the right side but it's just for looks. You can't grab it and slide it+
I still haven't figured the point of that, maybe a future enhancement?
There has been a lot of grumbling about the unfriendly nature of Photos for people with a lot of images. Maybe Apple is listening and will do something about it. I keep hoping one of the iOS upgrades will include folders/albums from within Photos instead of relying on syncing.
Also note that you can not delete images from Photos that have been added by syncing through iTunes...have to delete them back in iTunes.
But still, the iPad is a terrific photo display device due to its size.

Does anybody know how to get a scroll bar for a long list of podcasts when selcting some for sync? Thanks

How to read the whole name of a music title while scrolling down a list of titles? With the new iOs7 Music App there is no more black box showing the entire name!

How to read the whole name of a music title while scrolling down a list of titles? The old software-app had the function to click for a longer time on a titles beginning letters until a black box revealed the entire name. I miss this function especially for my classical music, because lots of pieces start with similar words. E.g.:
"Beethoven: Variations On "Ein Mädchen Oder Weibchen", Op. 66 - Var. 1"
"Beethoven: Variations On "Ein Mädchen Oder Weibchen", Op. 66 - Var. 2"
Scrolling in a list of title, I can't distinguish the titles, because just the first words are shown followed by: "...".
That's horrible!

Or you could include a width to your body style:
body {
background-image: url(Logo/sky1.jpg);
background-position: center center;
background-attachment: fixed;
width: 75%;}
It might work or not depending on your other color scheme.

Smart playlist long list of criteria extends off screen - help!

I subscribe to a lot of podcasts and use several smart playlists to group and organize them. When creating criteria for the smart playlist, sometimes the list extends off the bottom of the screen, and unlike the usual Mac interface, no scroll bar appears on the window. This isn't really a problem (I'm able to keep adding to the playlist using the + button near the top of the window) but makes going back and editing or removing items that can't be seen on screen impossible.
Can anyone suggest a solution to "scroll up" on these long lists of smart playlist criteria that disappear off screen?
I thought it might help make sense of my ramblings if I included a link to a screenshot showing what I'm asking about:

I have found the only solution right now is to create sub-smart playlists and then group those in the main playlist.
For example, say for music you have...
Any of the following:
Band is Devo
Band is B-52s
. [more rules]
Band is ELO
Band is Heart
. [more rules]
Band is Bad Religion
Band is NoFX
. [more rules]
that you can take groups of them and put them into their own Smart Playlists like New Wave, Classic Rock, and Punk then your HUGE playlist you can remove those bands and put in to include the New Wave, Classic Rock, and Punk playlists, then add what ever extra rules you have.

Long list of links

I'm writing a site that has a long list of links.(approx 150)
They are
broadly in 3 categories. What is the best way to display
these without
too much scrolling etc. Currently I have the major links as
icons
surrounding an Iframe containing the rest of the links.
I had thought about dropdown lists, and collapsible lists,
but I wounder
if there is any other way to achieve this. I would prefer not
to have to
use javascript, and my hosting package does not have any
inbuilt
database support.
Hope this makes sense.
James

If it were me, I would probably just create a main page
linking to 3 pages
for the 3 categories, and simply list the links on each page,
with a little
set of navigation links on each page, something like:
LINKS MAIN PAGE | CATEGORY 1 | CATEGORY 2 | CATEGORY 3
I'm kind of Amish about these things, but I think most users
much prefer a
straightforward HTML interface than iframes, etc.

Long list of presets.

The long list of Presets in Grid Mode are useless to me. I only ever use two that I have made. One for basic import, and one for B&W. I would like to be able to delete all the long list of built in ones. Or have a toggle switch as in Develop to hide them. At least, have custom ones show up at the top of the list instead of needing to scroll all the way to the bottom every time I want to use my presets.

I posted the same request a while ago. After finally finding a way to get rid of them they showed up again after updating to 3.3. Damned!

Making columns with a long list

I preformed a query and got a long list. The output doesn't take up that much horizontal space and so I'd like to make two columns with it to save on scrolling. Is that possible with CSS?
Here's my list looks like this:
Name: Snowfresh
Brewer: Edelweiss
Overall: 3.5
Name: Zepplin
Brewer: Leibringer
Overall: 3
And the code:
German List:
<table width="182" height="145" border="0">
<?php
//Puts it into an array
while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $data )) {
//Outputs the image and other data ?>
<tr>
 <td><?php echo "<img src=http://localhost/beer_diary/images/beer_tasted_profile/".$info['image_id'] ."> ";?></td>
 <td><?php echo "Name: ".$info['beer_name']. " ";
 echo "Brewer: ".$info['brewer']. " ";
 echo "Overall: ".$info['overall_id']; }?></td>
</tr>
</table>
 

Yea, CSS3 columns are about as helpful as CSS3 regions at this point. I'd recommend this article for turning a list into columns:

ITunes store pages formatting is one long list

Hi all,
The iTunes store some how is formated in plain html. Looks weird. The home has big pictures one after the other Then when you scroll down, the Music is a list of album picture and then a bullet list of the album name and the title. Something like the following:
Music
See All
[A picture of the album]
* Redemption Song (For Haiti Relief) [Live from Oprah] - Single
* Rihanna
[A picture of the album]
* Today Was a Fairytale - Single
* Taylor Swift
Everything has become a straight long list. My default browser is Chrome, it didn't help if I changed the default browser to firefox and rebooted. Not sure how to post a screen capture of what is happening. Hopefully somehow there are someone experienced this. Not sure if I put in the right keywords for searching, but wasn't able to find related issues.
Your help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Alice

Based on the iTunes.exe time stamp it's Oct 28, 2009 8:21PM ET. Funny thing is that the release date I can find on the web is Oct 30, 2009. Is that true?
Sometimes I see October 29 (Wikipedia for example). So when international date lines figure into things, I reckon you might well have got it on the day it was released (depending on where you are based).
So that timeframe looks right ... in the first days of the iTunes 9.0.2.25 installer, it contained an AAS 1.0.1 and a QuickTime 7.6.4. Then the Safari 4.0.4 installer (containing an AAS 1.1.0) came out on about 11 November. For a while I *really was* advocating a Safari 4.0.4 install to fix some other Store problems, because it was the only way to get an AAS 1.1.0 on the PC. (People used to look at me funny.) Then on about ... 18 November? QT 7.6.5 came out, and that version of QuickTime and AAS 1.1.0 got included in the iTunes 9.0.2.25 installer from then on.
My notes are a bit sketchy, but there was a hint that AAS 1.1.0 fixed some iPhone syncing trouble too. (I wasn't working on that much back then, though.)
But the important thing is that your Store is displaying properly again. (I'm glad it wasn't malware either ... my heart sank when that 306 code got mentioned.) Glad to have been of some accidental assistance, Alice!

How do I get more effects in my action box? I am only showing a few, like BOTTOM BORDERS, LOSE WEIGHT AND SPECIAL EFFECTS. That is all. The turotials I've checked into all show a long list of effects in the actions box. If anyone could help, I appreciate

How do I get more effects in my action box? I am only showing a few, like "Bottom Borders, Losing Weight, Resize and Crop, and Special Effects. And they do not list but a few effects. When I have watched the tutorials, they are showing a long list of effects in the action box. (with a side space bar) I do not. When I have clicked on the little arrow at top, and clicked "Load Actions", a box comes up, but it is blank,saying "no items match your search". I'm lost! If someone could help, it would be much appreciated! I would like to start using this.
Thank you.

I have a long list of gibberish files, in Preferences, in my Library. What are they? How did they get there? Can I delete them?

I have a long list of gibberish files, in Preferences, in my Library. What are they? How did they get there? Can I delete them without causing a problem?

Here is one thing I found googling for WebEx:
http://www.webex.com/why-webex/overview.html
(The x64 would most likely mean 64 bit). It may be a Windows based application/plugin, but since I had never heard of either, I'm only guessing there. If you do a search systemwide for it and don't find it plus don't know why it's there, I'd say throw it in the trash (don't empty it yet - make a note of the file path just in case you do have something installed that needs it so you can move it back).
Glad to hear it's not a torrent; some people use those not realizing that quite often there is a price to pay for downloading stuff for free that costs money elsewhere - the software packages quite often include little "add-ons" = malware which you really don't want.

Where do I send a long list of problems I have with non-functionality with the Lion OSX and new Safari for Lion.

In the past two weeks I have been documenting my Lion problems.
First, Arrows gone from finder windows; makes it difficult in comparing long lists of files in folder, or compare documents when reviewing line by line. This is obviously a change by people who do not compare long lists in windows comparing files between versions of projects ... the click to next screen is NOT equal to arrows.
Second, Finder Redreaw - doesn't. Move files to a fold, if there are a lot of files, they image of the files being moved remains in finder (see attached screen capture) until Finder is restarted and if COPY function is running. last files in Copy queue are not copied.
Screen capture 5 minutes after moving files to a folder - the selected file images are still in Finder after the move was completed.
Third, it is SLOW, particularly going to an "Attach file" in email, drawing the content of a folder to select an attachment is long enough for me to go to the kitchen, get a drink and come back. Just like the old days of OS7.
Fourth, shifting/recentering screen away from where I am working. Several programs, browsers, Adobe Photoshop/inDesign, and dear old Pages re center my screen - not to the center, but if I choose 30 of 70 images in a folder, it will shift … somewhere else in the folder instead of where I just clicked. If I am working on a document in inDesign or PhotoShop it will do the same - the cursor and screen drift elsewhere to find something it has been amused by. Sometimes it is a word, or a file, but often it is off the pastboard and on the etherial pasteboard on which the pages sit. Or if I'm zoomed in on an image, it moves to somewhere else.
I use a mouse and keyboard, both Apple wireless. I do not use a trackpad, but have a tablet/stylus I am afraid to put into the mix until this crap is stopped.
Fifth, SAVE AS… is gone. You must unlock, duplicate and edit the duplicate … and must rename it in Finder, or use EXPORT to save as the same format under a new name. SAVE AS… worked. Not broke, why fix it?
Personal Comment: The problems seem to be the triumph of coked up software engineers ooohing and aaahing over "Wouldn't it be cool if..." Cool, if they were Microsoft, and required everyone change how they have worked on Macs for the past (almost) three decades. Triumph of brainstorming over functionality.
Sixth, I can't use Cocoa Booklet, but that really started in OSX 10.6 "Snow Leopard". Most of my X11/Cocoa programs stopped worked about that time. Apple is no longer supporting "open source"?
But Wait! There's More...
Seventh, Tonight, trying to download a 1.7 gig archive onto a disk where 280 Gigs were supposedly free, it would not download because, according to the wonderful new Safari and the wonderful new Lion, there is not enough disk space to download a 1.7 gig file in a mere 280 Gigs of free space.
I might be able to move Snow Leopard onto the iMac, but my deciding factor was that Apple, in its wisdom, decided to make iBook Author unable to run under Snow Leopard. So moving to Snow Leopard means I have lost the ONLY benefit I get from the new computer and the new system.
This really stinks.

I have a long list of bookmarks. They are not sorted. They do not appear anywhere in the "organize bookmarks" window. Where are they? I want to delete a bunch of them but can't find a way.

This is Firefox 3.6.8 and Mac OS 10.5.8.
Right clicking on a bookmark does nothing. I don't know if that is a Firefox version issue or a mouse issue, but the mouse can right click on the Mac OS desktop and get the usual menus.
It is possible for me to delete bookmarks which still point to an active web page because there I can use the star to edit the bookmark. That is way too cumbersome a process for the long list I have. Some are old and no longer point to an active page. The star comes up empty in those cases anyway and I can do nothing about the bookmark.
Bottom line is that I just need a way to see the whole list and choose the ones to delete.
I thought they should all show up in the unsorted bookmarks folder but it is empty. That may be the crux of the problem.

Update - I discovered that the entire list of bookmarks can be accessed in the Organize Bookmarks window by clicking on the icon for Bookmarks Menu.
This seem like odd interface behaviour to me.
All the other software I use follows the pattern that an icon with a triangle to the left, which you click on to expand the menu tree downwards, shows the entire contents of the category when you click on the triangle. In other words, you don't get a different response by clicking on the icon from what you get by clicking on the triangle.
It also seems odd to me that when an unsorted bookmarks folder is automatically provided that unsorted bookmarks would not be placed there by default.
Anyway, by getting the list of bookmarks displayed this way I was able to simply right-click on items in the list and delete them, as I thought I should be able to do. Problem solved. Organize Bookmarks interface found to be somewhat unintuitive.

Does anyone know how to select text in Appleworks, click on the font button and then be able to scroll thru all the font so that one can see the text change as you scroll down the list, at present I have to do it one font style at a time and then repeat

Welcome to the Apple forums
Your question really belongs in the AppleWorks community/forum.
You can turn on fonts in actual type in the AppleWorks preferences.

SharePoint does not remove users from SharePoint permissions just because they were deleted/disabled in AD. This is to maintain referential integrity. In fact, when you delete a user from SharePoint, that user remains in the SharePoint content database,
just marked as deleted.
They do not have access to SharePoint given their account is deleted/disabled. But as far as automatically managing this, I'm not aware of a tool. On-prem there is Metalogix ControlPoint which does a great job of this, I haven't explored the O365 options.
