Sequence sorting question

Is there a way to sort sequences in the project by panel by the creation date of the clip from which each derives.
That is, I import a bunch of clips, create subclips from them as sequences (giving them new names), and put them in a bin. Now I want to sort that bin by the time at which the original clips were shot. Is this possible?
Thanks,
-mike

Here's the problem.
For starters, subclips aren't sequences, so you can't create a subclip "as a sequence". You can create a subclip and then create a sequence for that subclip, but they are inherently two different things.
Secondly, the subclip inherits the same date as the clip it came from, so...I don't know if that messes with what you want here. But sequences don't get dates at all, so that will affect what you want if you do in deed have sequences for each subclip.
And finally, the ability to sort by date columns was purposefully disabled by Adobe for CC, so if you're on that version, then whatever you're trying to sort, you won't be able to.
Please let Adobe know you want full sorting abilities returned, ASAP.

Sorting question over state...

Hi there,
Anyone know where you amend the over state / hover of an option in a sorting question ???
Been looking in the object style manager but can't find it in there...
Thanks in advance...

You are talking about the partially transparent grey bar that appears when hovering over an answer in the Sequence type of questions. There is no style that can be customized AFAIK. It is not even changing with the included themes. Same is valid for the connecting lines in matching questions that are always black, color cannot be changed for them neither. It is a pity, would recommend you enter a feature request to be able to customize the color of both the hover bar and those lines.

Can I transfer my hand made album sequence (sort order) defined in element when I turn a local album into a mobile album used with IPAD. Or do I have to change the dates artificially?

Can I transfer my hand made album sequence (sort order) defined in elemenst when I turn a local album into a mobile album used with IPAD. Or do I have to change the dates artificially?

Andrew, I know I am extremely late to the party but I too use Grid View. I had the same problem that you had but have found this to work for me. I used it and it is still holding as my default sorting even after switching between the Artist page and Grid View.
Once you are inside of the Artist page continue to click on the Album column until it shows Album by Artist/Year.
That will give you each album sorted by the year instead of it randomly sorting it for you each time you leave an Artist's page and then back again.
Hope this helps.

Using sequences.sort?

I have my own javaFx class GridRow.
I want to sort an array of instances of GridRow.
For this I was using Sequence.sort() method given in API
public sort(seq: java.lang.Object[], c: java.util.Comparator)
I mention my array in the Object[] but for the comparator I am unable to figure out what to do.
If I create a class implementing comparator in java then while defining the compare(Object o1,Object o2) method I am unable to type cast o1 and o2 into my Fx node's instances as I could not find any way of accessing Fx classes inside java code.
If I create a class extending comparator in Fx then while defining the compare(Object o1,Object o2) method I am again unable to type cast o1 and o2 into my Fx node's instances.
I tried both ways I could think of:
This is pretty unexpected. Please help.

Try this:
import java.util.Comparator;
import javafx.util.Sequences;
var seq = ["AA", "A", "AAAA", "AAA"];
var sortSeq = Sequences.sort(seq, Comparator{
public override function compare(obj1:Object, obj2: Object):Integer{
obj1.toString().length() - obj2.toString().length();
println(sortSeq);

Sorting question xsl

hi,
I am sorting a list by category, but now I know that one of the categories should go to the bottom of the list when displayed.
I tried concatenating some value to it so it would go to the bottom, but it's not working correctly. Any other ideas to achieve this?

Captivate 7, sequencing quiz question, answers are not reshuffled

Hello,
I have made a quiz using Cp7. The questions are all sequencing questions. The first time around, the answers are shuffled, as one would expect. Then the quiz-taker puts the answers in the correct order. However, the following times the quiz-taker does the quiz, the answers aren't shuffled! So if the quiz-taker gets Question 1 right the first time, when he or she tries the quiz again, the answers for Question 1 are in the right order when the question first opens.
Does anyone know what's going on here?
Thank you. Marvin DuBois

Thank you again. And yes, I should make a formal request.
I might just mention that I've found something of a work-around. (This won't be news to you, but others in the same boat as myself might appreciate this.) Note that this works within a very specific context, so it is by no means a complete solution. But here goes.
We run the Cp quizzes in an LMS (and that means, of course, a specific LMS). The solution works in this context. When making up a Cp quiz, I add a regular (non-question) slide after the score slide. On this slide I put a button that opens a webpage via a URL. And this URL is for the quiz itself--i.e. it is the LMS's address for the quiz. Thus, clicking the button simply restarts the quiz all over again, and this takes care of the randomization issues.
This solution has two major drawbacks:
1.The resume option has to be off.
2.The Cp quiz itself cannot keep track of the attempts at doing the quiz (since with each new retake, the counting restarts at '1').
I don't like having to do without the resume function. But in our particular case, the second issue isn't all that important. The LMS itself tracks the attempts at taking the quiz, so this information is always available both to quiz-takers and to administrators/teachers. (On the score slide itself, I simply remove the fields for the number of attempts.)
At the moment, I'm trying to come up with a solution that would allow us to retain the resume function. So far, no luck, but we'll see.
Best regards,
Marvin DuBois

SmartAlbum Sort Question

I'm having an issue with SmartAlbums (iPhoto 5... was in iPhoto 4, too), that is primarily related to film photos I get digitized by the store. On trips, I use 2 cameras - one color and one b&w. When I get the prints and photo cds back, the images on the cds will be the development date, not the date I took the photos, which makes sense as the stores don't know when we took the pictures. (no issue with digital camera as it date/time stamps each picture and they import in the chronological order)
So, when I import into iPhoto, I try to sort them, and see that they only seem to sort based on date, not time of day within date.
I use the batch update and change the dates to be the photographed date and the time to be in chronological sequence. Though the Info for each picture will show that they then have the correclty updated chronological sequence, SmartAlbums don't look to use the time stamp when sorting, as the pictures
Sequnce should be, based on batch updated date and time stamp
Color picture 1 12/01/06 12:00:10
Color picture 2 12/01/06 12:00:20
B&W picture 1 12/01/06 12:00:30
B&W picture 2 12/01/06 12:00:40
B&W picture 3 12/01/06 12:00:50
Color picture 3 12/01/06 12:01:00
The sequence won't necessarily show this way.
Does anybody know if iPhoto and/or SmartAlbums are supposed to sort by time within date, too?
If not, I suppose I'll send this to Apple as a needed enhancement. If the sort should work, do you have any insights into what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Mike
P.S. The ideal solution I try is to drag and drop sort pictures into the correct order in a regular (non-Smart) Album, and batch update the pictures from the first one to the last. The SmartAlbum will only get them to the right date.

Sequence settings question

I recently learned that whenever exporting a Quicktime file via the Quicktime Conversion method and selecting the NONE compression setting, that recompression occurs, although the selection indicates NONE (go figure). If I want to export a sequence, what selection should I use. And also, what about the Quicktime Video settings in the Sequence Settings dialogue box? What selection should I use when editing in, say, uncompressed 10bit or 8bit?
I'm a little confused. Maybe there is an article or something out there that explains all the differences in Quicktime that someone knows about.
Thanks, as usual, for all the help.

In a recent post, I was asking about a workflow issue I was having and the question came up. Instead of nesting a sequence, I exported it as a Quicktime movie using the Quicktime Conversion selection rather than the self-contained movie option and re-imported it, and I was concerned about any quality loss I might be introducing by doing it that way. In the "Conversion" dialogue box, you can select the codec, and I was selecting NONE. I was told not to use that setting because it recompressed the footage.
The original sequence I was exporting was uncompressed 8bit, and the original footage was d-beta captured as NTSC 8bit.

Playlist name sorting question

First off, sorry if this has been discussed before, I couldn't find it anywhere.
My question is, is there any way to sort my playlists via a "Sort Name" option or something so that a playlist starting with 'the' (for example, "The Letter Black") will be sorted, in the case of the example, under 'L' instead of 'T'? Thanks in advance.
Blessings.

Sorry, there are no controls about the sort order of playlists. They go folders, smart playlists, and regular playlists, with a lexical sort in each.
However, you don't need to create playlists for individual artists and albums. You can easily get to them by the column browser. To turn it on, click View > Column Browser > Show. Then type "lett" in the search bar and you will be right there.

Collections.sort question

Hi,
This is my question. I have the following classes
class A {
 int num = 1;
class B extends A implements Comparable{
 int count = 0;
 public int compareTo(B b) {
 return count - b.getCount;
public void setCount(int count) {
 this.count = count;
public int getCount() {
 return count;
}After i put the a couple of the B classes (after setting count) in a LinkedList of type A, i get a problem trying to sort them. The compiler gives me a variable Collections error on the Collections.sort
Any ideas on how to solve this would be appreciated.
Thanks

Are you talking about this A* algorithm? (I've never heard of it before.)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-star_search_algorithm
The code you have with the "instanceof" test might work. Not sure what the goal is, or how the algorithm works (I didn't read the above link in detail), so I can't say for sure whether it will "work" for what you are doing. Once you sort the "B" objects, what do you need to do with that sublist (i.e., with the bList in your code)?
I've never used generics, so I don't know much about them. Is it possible to make "A" Comparable, giving a dummy implementation to compareTo (i.e., maybe even just make it always return '0' [all values are equal]), and then have "B" implement Comparable such that B's compareTo will override A's version? I don't know if it is possible (or even desirable)--just a thought.

Address book field sort question

Does anyone know how I can set upp my City field so I can sort by city? When I call customers for appointments I would like to sort by city so I can group all my calls together. Presently I group it in with Last name which does not work well if I want to do a mailing.
Note to Palm; Why wouldn't Palm have set City field seperately so you can sort by city?

McAfee will warn you about anything sometimes lol. I've downloaded about 10 different programs and no viruses yet, so you shouldn't need worry. There should be some sort of advanced search tool on that site. You can also try using google. I do apologize the device does not come with that search method natively. I hope you find what you are looking for though through add ons.
Let me know if you have any further questions and have a nice day.

Collator sorting question

Good Day!
I have a program, witch uses Collator class object to print numbers in order.
Collator collator = Collator.getInstance(Locale.US);
 Collections.sort(num, collator);
for ( i = 0; i < num.size(); i++) {
String num1 = num.get(i);
System.out.println("num = " + num1);
As a result I receive
num = 1
num = 1
num = 10
num = 10
num = 100
num = 100
num = 101
num = 101
num = 102
num = 102
num = 2
num = 2
num = 20
But it's necessary to make numbering order as 1 1 2 2 3 3 ...
I wonder if there is any solution to make Collator class object to understand shorter String sentences as bigger than longer ones. (For an example to understand that 2 is bigger than 10, or 3 is bigger than 20...)
Thank you for your time!
Have a nice day!

What you're describing is most commonly known as the natural sort order (it's also called the intuitive or alphanumeric order). [Here's|http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/001018.html] a good blog post about it. There's no class in the standard libraries that does this, nor is there anything in any public library that I know of. You can find some informal Java implementations (among other languages) by following that link, but here's one I wrote. (Note that it's a Comparator, not a Collator; if you really a Collator, I have one of those too, but it's more experimental.) import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Comparator;
* A comparator that emulates the "intuitive" sorting used by Windows
* Explorer. The rules are as follows:
* <ul><li>Any sequence of one or more digits is treated as an atomic unit, a
* number. When these number units are matched up, they're compared according
* to their respective numeric values. If they're numerically equal, but one
* has more leading zeroes than the other, the longer sequence is considered
* smaller.</li>
* <li>Numbers always sort before any other kind of character.</li>
* <li>Spaces and all punctuation characters always sort before letters.</li>
* <li>Letters are sorted case-insensitively.</li></ul>
* Explorer's sort order for punctuation characters is not quite the same
* as their ASCII order. Also, some characters aren't allowed in file names,
* so I don't know how they would be sorted. This class just sorts them all
* according to their ASCII values.
* This comparator is only guaranteed to work with 7-bit ASCII strings.

Advanced sorting question.

I downloaded several CD's from the same band that form a Trilogy. I want to sort them so that they will all play in sequence even though they are different CD's with different names and release dates. I can't figure out how to do it.

Hello twyounce
Create a playlist and sort them in the order that you want. Go to the Drop down menu File > New > Playlist and then add the tracks in the order that you want. You can also reorganize them however you want without the need to have a to change any track information.

Last sorting question Itunes!?

Hi there,
I haven't really found the answer i was looking for in this support community. Hopefully someone has the right answer for me. Sorry for the image being Dutch, but i will explain in English.
The thing i want to do is:
1. Being able to see a various artists album in one group (1 coverflow). This i know how to do, on the left side of the image you'll see.
Naam = name or title if you like
Artiest = artist
Album-artiest = album artist (by keeping this in format of Various Artists, this keeps the album ''together'' as one cover)
Album = Album
On the right side
Naamsortering = name sorting (obvious blank, since there are multiple titles in this album, otherwise it sorts no more on the artist which i prefer instead of title order)
Artiestsortering = Artistsort (here i copied the artistname, so in the artist list it sort there on alfabetical order) Doesn't work btw see part 2 of my question.
Albumartiest-sortering = (here again i copied the artistname, so when you view a album it sorts the tracks on artist order, i like that!)
Albumsortering = albumsort (this is for sorting the album between other albums on alfabetical order)
So i think i got this end covered. Now for part two.
2. Search on my Apple TV within artist for example: ''Ultravox'' (see picture above).
The problem i'm having here is that this artist ''Ultravox'' couldn't be found by the search query of my Apple TV. Why is that? I stated that the Artist is named ''Ultravox'', but never the less it can't be found unless i change the album-artist field into ''Ultravox''. But this looses the keeping the album ''together'' as one cover.
So could anyone tell me if its possible to maintain the various artist album and still be able to search for an artist in this album on a Apple tv?
Already many thanks in advance for your time and help

Ah, that's the same fix as I describe in One album, still too many covers. I've no idea why iTunes does this one either. Funnily enough it seems to happen sometimes when I rename an existing album which is properly grouped so I know the values must be consistent because I've only just changed them, and did so all at the same time.

Guide Sorting Question

I just switched to FIOS and couldn't find an answer to this question.
I noticed that I can select all of the Action movies or Comedies, etc on a particular day, but it doesn't show the time they are showing. I'd like to be able to sort by a theme at the current time and later. Is this possible?
Thanks

Hi,
There is no real good way to do what you want to do. You can go to menu> search> interest and that will give you shows coming on in the future. A great way to search is by using your PC and going to www.verizon.com/fiostvcentral and you can do all sorts of searches in there.
