There a way to feather edges of a blurred out face?

I'm working on a project, where I need to blur out some faces. I dragged the "censor" effect onto it, and changed it to blur. However, there are no options in the inspector to feather the edges out and make them smoother. It looks so cheap when the edges are so sharp. Anyone have a solution to this??
Specs: FCPX 10.1.1

I added Feather and Falloff parameters for you. You can download the edited Censor w Feather effect here:

  • I have an ipod touch (4th gen) and just bought a clock/charger/player.  It says I need ios 4.3.  I keep getting a message saying I can download 6.? but it will wipe out everything on my ipod.  Is there a way to get the ios without wiping out my files?

    I have an ipod touch (4th gen) and just bought a clock/charger/player. It says I need ios 4.3. I keep getting a message saying I can download ios 6.? but that it will wipe everything off my ipod.  Is there any way to get the ios without wiping out my files?

    There is no supported method to "downgrade" iOS on any device.  If you update, you will get the latest iOS for your device, which will be iOS 6.1.3.  You cannot go backwards to iOS 4.3
    If you have never backed up in either iCloud or iTunes, then upgrading to iOS 6.1.3 will involve restoring your device as part of the upgrade.  Without a backup to restore from, you will loose everything that is on it.
    You should first connect to iTunes with your computer, sync your device without upgrading and create an up to date backup of everything.  Then use the upgrade option in iTunes to update your iOS.
    However, if the dock device strictly requires iOS 4.3, it will not work, as you cannot downgrade iOS.  There simply is no mechanism from Apple to do that.

  • Is there a way to save a form, once filled out, as a different file type in Reader?

    I have Acrobat, my coworkers only have Reader. Company won't purchase Acrobat for the other employees.
    I built a form for my coworkers to fill out. We need them to be able to send the filled out form to clients, but we don't want the clients to be able to edit the forms.
    I understand people with only Reader can't flatten the document, or add a password, or save it as non editable. As I understand it, even with Acrobat I can't assign a password for Reader users to be able to edit or not edit a file (PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong on that one).
    Is there any way to save the PDF form once it's been filled out (in Reader) as a different file type? Even an image? The file we send to clients doesn't have to be a PDF. Just something that most people can open.
    I tried inserting the PDF into a word document (unreadably pixelated) and tried taking a snapshot of the entire page (resolution too low). I've tried downloading one of the free PDF writers and it apparently won't work with our network security (or something along those lines). I've tried using the pdf writer for Firefox on the form once it was filled out, and that won't work either because our network firewall seems to be blocking it and that's not something they are willing to take down.
    Any advice?

    The signature WILL work! I've just looked into it more, thank you so much for pointing me in that direction.
    I get it now, it locks the form fields in place after my coworker fills them in and signs it (as the very last step).
    I wish I would have asked on here a full day ago. Would have saved a lot of headache and Googling.
    Thanks again.

  • Is there a way to dynamically determine the number of out parameters for a server side procedure?

    Hi,
    Below is a helper method used for calling a server-side function which loops through the inbound bindVars parameter to populate the function's IN parameters. Is there a way to dynamically determine the IN/OUT parameters based on the procedure name in the stmt parameter? No members of the CallableStatement class seemed promising, but the getParameterMetaData() method in the PreparedStatement class seemed like it could be helpful lead. However, I have not found any detailed descriptions (yet) of how to use it.
    protected Object callStoredFunction(int sqlReturnType, String stmt,
      Object[] bindVars) {
      CallableStatement st = null;
      try {
      // 1. Create a JDBC CallabledStatement 
      st = getDBTransaction().createCallableStatement(
      "begin ? := "+stmt+";end;",0);
      // 2. Register the first bind variable for the return value
      st.registerOutParameter(1, sqlReturnType);
      if (bindVars != null) {
      // 3. Loop over values for the bind variables passed in, if any
      for (int z = 0; z < bindVars.length; z++) {
      // 4. Set the value of user-supplied bind vars in the stmt
      st.setObject(z + 2, bindVars[z]);
      // 5. Set the value of user-supplied bind vars in the stmt
      st.executeUpdate();
      // 6. Return the value of the first bind variable
      return st.getObject(1);
      catch (SQLException e) {
      throw new JboException(e);
      finally {
      if (st != null) {
      try {
      // 7. Close the statement
      st.close();
      catch (SQLException e) {}

    The PreparedStatement.getParameterMetaData() object is exactly what you need for this task.
    Once you have the ParameterMetaData you can ask it how many parameters are present and which mode they are. The parameters are numbered from 1 to n and you can use ParameterMetaData.getParameterMode(1); to get the mode of the 1st parameter. The modes are defined as static values in the ParameterMetaData object. Check out the doc at http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/sql/ParameterMetaData.html

  • Is there a way to change the key photo on iPhoto Faces?

    Hi
    The picture on the corkboard for each person appears to be the first photo you identify for that person.
    Is there any way to change the key photo, like you can do with Events?
    Thanks
    Dave

    Thanks very much!
    I hadn't realised you can do that on Events, I have always right clicked on it and brought up the option to Change key Photo. That doesn't work the same way n Faces, so thanks for the Space Bar trick.
    All the best

  • Is there a way to use Photoshop's field blur, iris blur or tilt shift blur straight on AE?

    I want to use photoshop's selective blur effects on several footage. I know I might import the footage on Photoshop and just apply the effect on the video sequence, but this workflow is rather incomfortable for a whole bunch of clips.
    Is there a way to use either those filters or reproduce their behavior straight on AE?

    You can pretty much recreate all of them using effects like Compound Blur or Camera lens Blur wit ha custom matte and you can expand this further by getting a plug-in suite like REvisionFX' SmoothKit where you have even more sophisticated adaptive blurs.

  • Is there any way to disable the lock screen with out the screen staying on?

    I know there is away to disable the pass lock but is there a way to disable the screen from locking every time the screen goes off? cause it's so much easier to just press the answer button than to slide it to unlock. phone versions iPhone 4s and iPhone 5c.

    You're confusing a direct answer with a rude one.  Wjosten's reply wasn't rude.  It was accurate and direct, without any sugercoating.  You can't get the device to operate the way that you want (lock the screen, but not really 'lock' the screen).  It's not a 'screensaver' like on your computer.  It's a lock screen, designed to prevent accidental activation of the device screen, and possibly launching apps, making phone calls, etcetera.
    If you want an option added that allows the device to do what you want, tell Apple.

    This is a technical assistance forum, not an 'emotional assistance' forum.  Wjosten was not rude or insulting in any way.  You were.

  • Software update in itunes times out 420mb. Is there a way to resume downloading after connection time out?

    Hi,
    While downloading an update for the iphone, my internet connection momentarily stops.
    This interrupts the update download, which then needs to start from the beginning again.
    Is there any way to enable the download to pick up from where it was interrupted?
    Its a 420 mb update so it never finishes before the connection drops out.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    cheers

    you cant resume it from the last position in itunes but could be paused and resumed,check out website,

  • When I am talking on the phone, is there a way to shut off the screen so my face does not press buttons?  I am using an Iphone 4.

    When I am talking on the phone, is there a way to shut down the screen so that my face does not touch the buttons?

    It is supposed to shut off on its own. Some users have reported cases or screen covers that have interfered with the proper functioning of the proximity sensor. If you've removed those and cleaned the screen and still have the same problem you may have a defective proximity sensor. You may find more information by doing an internet search for "iphone proximity sensor."

  • I installed the update for the latest firefox, it worked find until I restarted my computer now it is just a blank white window. Is there any way to uninstall that update? with out losing my favorites?

    It worked fine even after it restarted. I don't want to uninstall it because i will lose my favorites.

    Thanks for the help! How the **** are we supposed to know that we have to swipe the **** mini pages up instead of clicking the **** wiggling button???
    I mean ***? Are we mind readers? EVERY time I leave a page I now have to sign in again and again. Apple is just BEGGING people to go get a nice Samsung mini laptop for LESS $.
    I don't get it.
    Since you, and others who were nice enuf to answer (thanks so much!! For doing Apples CS work for them for free BTW)
    Maybe someone can answer this:
    I take a lot of pix for eBay, sometimes 3-400 at a time. When I delete photos it's usually 1,000 at a time, and I assure you I'm not exaggerating. Up until now I was able to take the END pic and swipe the whole row and check 7 pix quickly. With the new ios7 I am unable to do it anymore (yet ANOTHER reason I don't want this 'improved' OS).
    Does ANYONE know of a way to choose many pix at once to move or delete or whatever? Remember the old windows system where you could choose one pic, click it then hit SHIFT and click a lower one and it would highlight them all, in between, for a quick delete.
    How can I highlight pix other than one at a time? There MUST be a way! And since I'm lacking a **** crystal ball I'm stuck. Help? And THANKS guys, really!

  • Is there a way I can get my iPhone 4 out of recovery mode without restoring it?

    I recently came back from an amazing trip to Europe and I took so many photos on my iPhone, sadly on the way back it froze so I put it into recovery mode because it wouldn't connect to iTunes. Finally it did, but now I have to restore it and I didn't even get a chance to sync my photos, apps, contacts, etc. Is there some sort of third party software that can assist me?

    Hi,
    Firstly, very sorry to hear this has happened to you, have you simply tried holding the home and top button in until you see the apple logo and seeing if this will reboot the iPhone?
    I can understand your pain , there are some apps out there but I would not recommend for the novice user and I unfortunately there is no guarantee, if you are more novice, try googling "recboot", if your more advanced, you should google "ibooter"
    Good luck.

  • Is there a way to turn off/disable digital optical out? 1.9 iSight

    I have an iMac 1.9 with iSight. No sound from speakers except the startup chime.
    The digital optical out sound connecter is bad and the red light is on, and no it is not a matter of just getting the red light off... the connector is psychically broken as there is a little spring in the connector that came loose somehow.
    So I was wondering if somehow if digital optical sound could be disabled thereby allowing regular sound work?
    Thanks,
    Bill...

    Digital or analog output is determined by the connector inserted into your now-damaged socket. There is no way to 'turn off' digital output in such a manner that analog output will then be 'turned on.'
    I'll check to determine if your logic board can be repaired at a reasonable price and post back. Apple's stock solution is to exchange the module, and in your case, this otherwise exchangeable part if covered by warranty or an AppleCare extension to it would not typically be covered, because of what would be construed to be 'user abuse.' Don't be offended: that's the official term. Not an indication that you intentionally damaged to component.

  • Is there a way to create a web journal based on faces?

    I have a bunch of family photos from all branches of my family tree. I would like to create a web journal has photos of each individual on their own page. Does Aperture do that?

    Aperture 3 supports the creation of web pages - you have web journals, web pages, smart web pages. The smart webpages are articulately convenient, because you can define smart rules for the content.  All web products have an initial overview page with thumbnails of each image and clicking one of the thumbnails will take you to a details page with the image enlarged. Then you can view the individual images a s a slideshow.
    But since the demise of Mobile Me you cannot publish directly to a web server. You will need to export your web projects to a folder in the Finder and upload them to a FTP site, for example the FTP server of your internet provider. This is easy to do with tools like CyberDuck.
    Aperture 3's faces feature will help you to tag the faces and find images of each person quickly. You can refer to faces names in smart albums or smart webpages with rules like "Faces is ..."
    So you could create a smart web page based on a rule "keyword is 'family_tree" and "Face is 'grandpa'" or similar.
    But there is no automatic option to create a journal of all the best of all faces images of each faces stack. You will have to select the images to be included in the journal yourself,  by creating an album or creating rules for a smart album.

  • Is there any way to use bluetooth and force audio out at the same time?

    I have an older treadmill that uses IFit which means a program on my phone controls my treadmill via an aux audio cable. I like using BT headphones so I don't have cords hanging. So...I'm trying to figure some way to either a) have iphone connected physically to treadmill but bt'ing music to my headphones at the same time or b) get iphone to communicate with two different bt devices simultaneously. (Treadmill can also be controlled via BT, but I still need the BT for headphones)
    Any ideas would be great. I currently have cable running from treadmill to iphone and headphones via a splitter but it's a LOT of cord hanging which makes things difficult.

    No. FaceTime is one on one only.
