Simple duplicate object in full sceen/ duplicacion simple de objeto en pantalla completa

ENG:
I need to duplicate a "mc" to create a simple graphic layer:
var container:MovieClip = setUpContainer();
var ln:Number = 1000;
var spacer:Number = 2;
var duplicate:MovieClip;
for(var i:Number = 1; i < ln; i++) {
    var newY:Number = i * (container._height + spacer);
    duplicate = container.duplicateMovieClip("clip-" + i, i, {_y:newY});
    trace(duplicate); // _level0.clip-[number]
function setUpContainer():MovieClip {
    var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("container", this.getNextHighestDepth());
    var w:Number = 3;
    var h:Number = 3;
    mc.beginFill(0x333333);
    mc.lineTo(w, 0);
    mc.lineTo(w, h);
    mc.lineTo(0, h);
    mc.lineTo(0, 0);
    mc.endFill();
    return mc;
But i can't modify it to properly to duplicate the "mc" both in the X and Y directions, to cover completely the screen. I can just create an y or an x column of duplicated objects.
Take a look on this site:
http://www.candyandcandy.com/
When the overlay video layer start, after 13/14 seconds i need to create the same graphic layer composed by 3x3 pixel alpha frames wich overlap the video.
ES:
Necesito duplicar un "mc" para crear una capa gráfica sencilla:
var container:MovieClip = setUpContainer();
var ln:Number = 1000;
var spacer:Number = 2;
var duplicate:MovieClip;
for(var i:Number = 1; i < ln; i++) {
    var newY:Number = i * (container._height + spacer);
    duplicate = container.duplicateMovieClip("clip-" + i, i, {_y:newY});
    trace(duplicate); // _level0.clip-[number]
function setUpContainer():MovieClip {
    var mc:MovieClip = this.createEmptyMovieClip("container", this.getNextHighestDepth());
    var w:Number = 3;
    var h:Number = 3;
    mc.beginFill(0x333333);
    mc.lineTo(w, 0);
    mc.lineTo(w, h);
    mc.lineTo(0, h);
    mc.lineTo(0, 0);
    mc.endFill();
    return mc;
Pero no me puedo imaginar que la manera de modificarlo para bien duplicar el "mc", tanto en las direcciones X e Y. Sólo puedo crear una columna "y" o una columna "X" de los objetos duplicados.
Eche un vistazo en este sitio:
http://www.candyandcandy.com/
Donde comienza la capa de pixel sobre el video, después de 13/14 segundos. Tengo que crear el mismo nivel gráfico compuesto por elementos de 3x3 píxeles alfa que se superponen el vídeo.

  • Wanted: Script to duplicate objects and apply colours

    Hi
    I am looking to pay someone to write a script which can duplicate objects and apply colours.
    I have a full break down of the project together with a Illustrator Action that demonstrates the functionality of the required script.
    If you are interested, please email [email protected] for full details.
    You can also send me a private message.

    Can you post a screen shot of the resulting outcome, derived from your current action, so we can see the desired result?

  • Duplicate Object Name Error When Publishing Crystal Reports from BW to BOE

    Hi,
    We recently upgraded our systems (all client and server) to SP2.7 in order to solve a problem with saving Crystal Reports to BW.  Now we are experiencing a new error when trying to publish a Crystal Report from BW to BOE (either all in one step from Crystal Reports application or directly from within BW).
    Upon trying to publish a Crystal Report from BW to BOE, we get the following error:
    "An error occurred while saving and / or publishing.  The return code 1 was returned from the server.  Logon to Crystal Enterprise failed.  Unable to commit the changes to Enterprise.  Reason: Failed to commit objects to server : Duplicate object name in the same folder."
    We have repeated this issue numerous time with different reports, users and logon credentials and have verified that there are NOT any duplicate object names.
    Additionally, in some cases, the report ultimately publishes to BOE, but with the above error interruption along the way.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Josh

    Ingo,
    Apologies for the delayed response.  We've spent a few days poking around with this issue, and had even opened a customer message for it (13641).
    In the end, it seems that the problem was somehow associated with the "Prepare this report for translation." flag in the "Save to BW Options" dialog box of Crystal Reports.  If we try to Save & Publish with the Translation flag selected, we get the duplicate entry error.  If we Save & Publish without the Translation flag selected, everything is fine.
    There are still some details we need to look into, but for the time being it looks like we don't have an issue anymore(assuming we ever did) as we're not concerned with Translation capabilities.
    If we come across the problem again, I'll post again.
    Thanks,
    Josh

  • There was an error while writing data back to the server: Failed to commit objects to server : Duplicate object name in the same folder.

    Post Author: dmface15
    CA Forum: Administration
    I am working in a new enviorment and i am trying to save a report to the Crystal Server via the CMC. I am uploading the report from the objects tab and attempting to save to a folder. The report has 1 static defined parameter and that's it. When i click submit to save the report i receive the following error message: "There was an error while writing data back to the server: Failed to commit objects to server : Duplicate object name in the same folder." There is not a anothe report within the folder with that name. What could be causing this error message and equally important, what is the solution.

    hte message you received about duplicate user probably means something hadn't fully updated yet. Once it did then it worked...

  • Getting Duplicate Object existing issue while deploying the BIAR file

    Hi All,
    We are trying to deploy BIAR File with XI R2 Command tool InstallEntSdkWrapper. But we are getting Duplicate Object exixting issue while deploying the BIAR file.
    Error Message:
    [report] [InstallEntSdkWrapper.main] Connecting to CMS plmdevapp31:6400 as administrator
       [report] [InstallEntSdkWrapper.CmsImportFile] Exception: An error occurred at the server :
       [report] Failed to commit objects to server : Duplicate object name in the same folder.
       [report]
       [report] [InstallEntSdkWrapper.main] BIAR File could not be imported
    If we are doing any promition with Import Wizard we have an option to "Overwrite object contents" option to overwite exixting objects. It will very helpful if any one suggest how we can achieve this through InstallEntSdkWrapper.
    Unfortunately there is no documentation availabe on InstallEntSdkWrapper.
    Cheers!

    That's a limitation with the XI Release 2 InstallEntSdkWrapper.jar tool.

  • Duplicate object into multiple selected frame

    I’m looking for a script that will duplicate the selected object or the content of the clipboard into multiple selected layers inside a document.
    I have not find any discussions around this, but I’m asking if anyone have already seen such script.
    Thanks
    Jean-Claude

    Jean-Claude try the following one:
    1. Should work with a single object, multiple objects, group
    2. Should alert a warning, if you select nothing or select some text
    3. Will not honor, if layers are hidden or locked
    Does it work for you?

  • Ability to duplicate objects in transaction tab

    I am using Solution Manager 3.2. I am building "worksteps" (sequecing transactions and programs) in to the transaction tab at the business process step level.  Currently, if I attempt to add an object (transaction or program) more that once, I get the following message "Specified key already exists."  Is there a way to allow duplicates objects to be added in the same business process step.

    Hi,
    I am afraid this is not possible without code modification. You would need to change the message to a warning instad of an error. The data storage allows to store duplicates on this tab.

  • Duplicate objects for gallery

    I have tried a couple of times to duplicate objects, in
    different ways, so I can later put image into the objects. The
    problem is that it works in Flash but when i try it out in my
    browser or my friends browser it wount work at all.
    So if there is one out there that can explain this or can
    point me into right directions it would be alot of help.
    Kind Regards
    Mario

    Hi Michael,
    Not really, as Coherence only compares keys for equality, not the values, when deciding where to store the objects.
    What you could do however, is something along the lines of what I described in the previous post -- you could introduce an intermediary pointer/reference object that would only contain an id of your true value object:
    public class MyObjectReference implements Serializable {
    private static final NamedCache myObjectCache = CacheFactory.getCache("myObjectCache");
    private Object id;
    public MyObjectReference(Object id) {
    this.id = id;
    public Object getId() {
    return id;
    public MyObject getValue() {
    return myObjectCache.get(id);
    Then your code would become similar to this:
    NamedCache myRefCache = CacheFactory.getCache("myReferenceCache");
    NamedCache myObjectCache = CacheFactory.getCache("myObjectCache");
    MyObject myObj = ...
    myObjectCache.put(myObjId, myObj);
    myRefCache.put(1, new MyObjectReference(myObjId));
    myRefCache.put(2, new MyObjectReference(myObjId));
    myRefCache.put(3, new MyObjectReference(myObjId));
    Assuming your object is much bigger than its key/identifier, this approach could save you a lot of space in the cluster, as each reference object is very small, while still allowing you to access your value object using different keys and dereferencing:
    MyObject myObj = ((MyObjectReference) myRefCache.get(1)).getValue();
    You could replace key 1 with 2 or 3 above and the result would be the same.
    HTH,
    Aleks

  • I recently installed a trail version of a software and now to install the full version i have to delete the trail completely from my mac. How do I do that?

    I recently installed a trail version of a software and now to install the full version i have to delete the trail completely from my mac. How do I do that?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    If the new version has an uninstaller run it first. Othewise with Mac OS drag the app to the trash and empty the trash. Do an install if a dialog box asks if you want to replace or keep files with similar names choose replace.

  • I have just got my iPad2 and very pleased with it. I have a question regarding the monthly (recommended) battery full charge.  Should I let the battery completely die down to nothing at all or would this be bad for my iPad?

    I have just got my iPad2 and am very pleased with it. I have a question regarding the monthly (recommended) battery full charge.  Should I let the battery completely die down to nothing at all before I plug in to recharge or would this complete drain be bad for my iPad?

    It's not bad for it - on this page www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html it says :
    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).

  • Shocky repainting and duplicate objects on screen

    Good day,
    First of all let me say I'm not all to familiar in Desktop applications so i find myself struggling with paint and repainting problems a lot.
    Now, i have a problem when i paint objects to the screen which are updated through an observer update.
    I've posted most of the class Track.java(which is currently a JComponent) which contains obstacles to be painted on it. In the paint method i also draw lines to create a simple illusion of movement, thought it seems like those get updated more frequent then the obstacles (which are JPanels; I;ve also tried JLabels as i reckon repainting JPanels every 20ms might be a heavy load).
    Edit: The obstacles stay in the screen sometimes; it looks like they get a duplicated object on a certain (totaly random) moment and stay there until an other object gets loaded into the `holder`. Also i mentioned in the title that the objects shocked through the screen this is the same problem as i mentioned above.
    Posted the only method in Model.Car that sends a update to the track
    I hope all of this makes sense and are able to give me directions which might lead to a solution.
    Thanks in advance

    Cheers for the respone.
    The first error, well i was messing around with the paint methods i'm still not 100% on the difference between all of them so i forgot to edit them back.
    so i changed it all back to :
    public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
            super.paintComponent(g);Secondly i've looked into the layered panes, the problem is that i'll have to alter the JFrame directly. Currently this class(code below) is extended from a ImagePanel, which is an extended JPanel(code Below).
    I've changed all the objects to JLabels and instead of calling setBounds im calling setLocation now, unfortunately it hasnt changed a thing. (i;ve also included a obstacle class, see below)
    As i interpreted the layeredPane it just adds the functionality to add a Z-dimension to the Frame and it doesnt quite change the efficiency problem i seem to be suffering, or does it?
    Track Class creation:
    public class Track extends javax.swing.JComponent implements Observer ImagePanel code:
    public class ImagePanel extends JPanel {
        Image bgImg;
        public ImagePanel(Image imgSrc) {
            this.bgImg = imgSrc;
        protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
            super.paintComponent(g);
            g.drawImage(bgImg, 0, 0, this);
    public class Oil extends JLabel implements View.IObstacle {
        private int xPos, yPos;
        private String type = "oil";
        public Oil(String image) {
            super(new ImageIcon(image));
            this.setOpaque(false);
            this.setPreferredSize(new Dimension((Model.Oil.WIDTH*60), (Model.Oil.LENGTH*60)));
            this.setLayout(null);
        public int getXPos()          { return xPos; }
        public int getYPos()          { return yPos; }
        public String getType()       { return type; }
        public void setXPos(int xPos) { this.xPos = xPos; }
        public void setYPos(int yPos) { this.yPos = yPos; }
    }

  • [CS4 Win] Weird 'Bug' giving overset text in duplicate object - stumped!

    Hi all,
    I am experiencing a perculiar 'bug' in InDesign CS4 (Windows).
    I have a triangular text frame rotated by 45° with a 0.2mm inset.
    This frame contains two words who's point size is just big enough to fit the text in the frame without it oversetting.
    The leading is set to 100% of the point size.
    When I duplicate the text frame either with the Duplicate command, cut 'n' paste or alt dragging, the new text frame is overset!
    I cannot find any difference between the two objects what so ever.
    If, in the original text frame, I change the text frame options inset to 0 and then back to the original 0.2 mm, I get overset!
    Scaling the original up by any amount also causes overset, as does increasing the height of the frame and then returning it to its original height.
    I have tried exporting as a snippet but the new placed text frame oversets.
    Does anyone have any idea might be causing this behaviour.
    It doesn't do it in CS3 or in CS5.
    I have included a link to an example file, you will need to have the same font (HelveticaNeueLTPro-BlkCn) to see the problem.
    I can't upload this for obvious copyright reasons - sorry.

    Thanks for ANY input.
    Simon Kemp.

    Hi Simon.
    My initial reaction was it might have to do with the third party plugins, but I exported to .inx to strip them out, and then NONE of the frames had both words. I also thought it might be that the the frame isn't a right triangle and the slight angles on the vertical and horizontal might be a problem, but I made a new frame with the same hypotenuse but the correct legs, and that didn't make a difference, either. (I made it by drawing a rectangular frame exactly half as high as it was wide, adding a point at the center of the top path segment with the pen, then deleted the two upper corner points).
    I have to say my conclusion is that the problem here is there really isn't enough room in the frame for both words with that inset. Adding 3% to the size of the frame (by clicking the chainlink to link changes to height and width, then typing +3% after the height [adding in the scale fields scales the type, too, so don't do it there] and pressing Enter) brings both words into view.
    Curiously, When I opened the file in CS5, the words fit without messing around. Cutting and pasting the frames with overset made both words appear. This could be due to the new way ID deals with text in non-rectangular shapes. When I opened the .inx file without the plugin information in CS5 all the text was visible in all frames. I think the only reason the text ever fit in the original CS4 file might have to do with one of the plugins, but that's pure speculation. I don't think there's any sort of bug here.

  • Is there a way to link duplicate objects or artboards so that you can manipulate multiple copies simultaneously?

    Is there a way that I can link copies of an object so that I can manipulate one copy and the others will change also in real time?
    Maybe with artboards? Wondering if there's a way to make a duplicate instance of an artboard that is 'linked' so it changes when I manipulate the original. Like you can do with files and comps in Aftereffects.
    I have a really complicated set of paths that needs to be duplicated in multiple spots throughout a single composition. But I would like to be able to work on them AFTER they've already been placed, and I need each copy to be an exact match.
    any help much appreciated. thanks

    magnificent,
    In addition to what imagecollection said, for some regular repeat patterns you may (also) use Effect>Distort&Transform>Transform with Move and Copies, possibly multiple times with possibly different copy numbers (such as twice for horizontal and vertical), symbol or no symbol.

  • Duplicate object in exact same place

    How can i duplicate an object without using copy and paste, or holding control, and have it be an exact duplicate right on top of the first? When i copy and paste it places it away form the original. Curious if there is a way to duplicate it in place.
    Thanks!

    Copy & Paste In Front (this will put it in the exact location overtop the selection you copied)
    Cmd+C  then  Cmd+F   if your looking for the shortcut (if not it's all under your edit list)
    EDIT:
    You can also Paste In Back (Cmd+B) if you want the same thing just your new copy behind the original

  • Problem at EPS when duplicate object w/ gradient

    Hey, check that: In Illustrator CS5 I drew a square, applied gradient, duplicate and rotate it. Then I saved as EPS (Illustrator 8) and open in Corel. There is an error as the fill (gradient) had not been duplicated and rotated along with the path of the object.
    Illustrator CS5
    EPS Illustrator 8 open at Corel
    I know i can expand gradient into steps or mesh but what puzzles me is that recently bought a file at iStockphoto whose gradient is not converted into steps or mesh and it works!
    Open the file purchased with the element gradient and repeat the same process as described above. When I open it at Corel, the gradient is duplicated and rotated.
    I thank the attention of anyone who can help me with the solution or suggestions.

    In the market I work, most people uses Corel. And as I have intent to distribute my design, I need to generate a file that is mostly compatible with other editors.
    The problem about expanding gradient into objects is that I dont like the idea of dividing the gradient into hundreds of objects. The gradient mesh uses Clipping Path while the file I bought from iStockphoto is a path (apparently) common.
    I am looking for the solution to create linear gradients compatible with other editors without having to divide the shape into pieces or use Clipping Path. As i saw it's possible, I intend to find out how
