Transition treasure box for PrP (soon)

There have been several discussions recently regarding the lack of good transitions for PrP. As a working editor I need a variety of tools just in case that marketing video or music video needs a different kind of transition just to spice things up. The Avid DS excelled at this by using a node structure to allow you to mix and match every filter in the box to create something unique and different when that need arose (i.e. clients asking for it).
I spent my share of Google time researching this and all I found was limited and weak (in the sense of programming controls).
Well, last Friday I stumbled upon a product that I prematurely dismissed many months ago. Boy was I wrong.
Boris Red will soon release Red 5 for Mac (64 bits). It does many things I dont need since After Effects is my go to motion graphics software. But it does one major thing that I see as an answer to the prayers of editors like me... it allows you to make customized transitions or to use their vast library and alter as needed. It has lots of things from Continuum as well as the AE library know as Final Effects complete. You can stack them, matte them,blend them as you choose.The degree of control rivals that of Sapphire and Avid DS. It renders fast and gives PrP editors more choices when they want it. It should be released soon. I now feel like I have what I need to make just about every client happy. I tend to do more commercial, marketing and corporate communication projects which tend to need a little more glitz then narratives or docs. I feel like I have discovered a real treasure.

That's good to know. Thanks for sharing.

Poor customer service; send pre-paid box for return

My name is Danielle. In early April I bought a Dell Inspiron All-In-One desktop from the Best Buy in Manhattan, KS (Store #1101). At check out I was under the impression that I was also buying Geek Squad Protection. In early July the screen of the all in one was cracked so I boxed everything back up in the original packaging and took it to BB/ Geek Squad for repair. I was surprised there was a charge at that time and was told I didnt get Geek Squad Protection, but instead an extended warranty. That's fine and mistakes happened, partly my fault for not checking the receipt better. We still sent the computer for repair as we had never had problems with BB before and we are long-time customers. On the 28th of July the computer was returned un-repaired as they could not find a replacement screen and we were advised to call Dell directly for repair. Again no-ones fault so we took the computer home frustrated but not upset. Dell came to our home on 08/04/15 to repair the computer, but when we opened the box only the cracked monitor was inside with none of the accessories, power cord, or stand. Upset, I called the Manhattan BB and was told to bring the computer up to see what they could do. When I got there later that day I was told that they had to email the repair center before they could do anything. I asked why I was told to come up if all they could do was send an email. We do not live in Manhattan it is a drive for us. I was told I could wait 15 minutes for a manager (Tyler) to come back from break. An hour later, Tyler gives me a keyboard/mouse and a used charger. They have no replacement stand and say it will take 48 hours to contact the repair center to see if it’s there. I ask if the charger is the same one for the computer as I do not want to damage it further by using the wrong charger. He tells me it’s the same, not the exact same that came with the computer, but the same brand and everything else.When I get home I plug in the computer, but it does not turn on. The power light blinks and then nothing. After looking up the charger it seems I was given a charger for a laptop and not a desk top. I called BB back in the morning as soon as they opened. I spoke to a manager named Sarah, who is the only saving grace in this whole fiasco, who checked in the back and, lo and behold!, my things were in the back the entire time. She says that she’ll put my name on them and leave them at Geek Squad for me to pick up. My husband happened to be in Manhattan picking up his dress uniform after work, so I called and asked him to pick up the items. He is given only the stand and is told that they will not return the other items until we give back the keyboard/mouse and charger they gave us yesterday. In other words they threatened to hold our items hostage. I told them on the phone and in no uncertain terms that this was not acceptable and they returned all of our items to us. I, however, do not appreciate the threat, the lies, or the way that this situation was handled. I have absolutely no use for their keyboard/mouse and even less use for a Dell laptop charger. I refuse to step foot back into that store, or any other Best Buy after this, but I don’t want to “steal” these useless items. Please send a pre-paid box for me to return these items. I refuse to drive back up there or spend money out of my pocket because of this. Email or call for the address. Thank you,Danielle G

Hello DanielleIG –
All-In-One desktops are great machines. Of all the computer types, they have the largest screens, and a bigger chance of being cracked. It’s a terrible feeling when it happens and even worse when you are told you didn’t have Accidental Damage and Handling protection on your computer. It’s great that Geek Squad was still able to send your device for repair, but disappointing that we were unable to obtain the parts from Dell.
I worked for Geek Squad for a few years and was in charge of all the shipping and receiving in my store. While I know we try our absolute hardest to keep accessories labeled and together with their parent computers, I’ve seen instances where they can become separated. In these cases, supplying you with replacement accessories was the right call, but the accessories should have been verified to work with your computer. I am very sorry this did not happen before you took your computer home.
I reached out to the store in Manhattan, KS and spoke with Sarah. She informed me that she has contacted you and made arrangements around the accessories. I urge you to reach out to me if you feel the resolution the store has presented is not what you were looking for. I really appreciate you contacting us with your situation so that we can use it as an opportunity for improvement with our processes. Thank you again, DanielleIG.
I hope you have a great day,

How can I reinstate the warning dialog box for entering a secure site?

I would like to reinstate the warning box that tells me when I am entering a secure site. The one that warns when I am leaving a secure site is working just fine. I probably unchecked the box for entering at one time or another but I can't find how to bring it back.

Looks that the Warning Messages dialog for those settings is gone from Tools > Options > Security
You can reset the related <b>security.warn_</b> prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.

Check Box for each row in report -- all rows deleting when pressing DELETE

Hello experts! I have set up a report with a check box for each row. When I click the DELETE button to delete the selected rows, every single one of the rows get deleted...even the ones that are not selected. I have my process point set to "On Submit - After computations and validations".
This is my delete process (SHG is the table and SHG_ID is the primary key):
FOR i in 1..HTMLDB_APPLICATION.G_F01.count
LOOP
DELETE FROM SHG
WHERE SHG_ID = HTMLDB_APPLICATION.G_F01(i);
END LOOP;
Also, I've added to query in the region source this line:
htmldb_item.checkbox(1, SHG_ID) del,
Where does the "1" come into this? Not sure what I am doing wrong!

The 1 (first argument to all the htmldb_item.* APIs) corresponds to the array number in htmldb_application.g_fNN. So 1 will populate array g_f01, 2 will populate g_f02 and so on.
Your code seems fine, it should delete only the checked rows. Are you sure there is no other process on the page that might be deleting the rows? See if you can put up an example on htmldb.oracle.com

Print Dialog Box for Addon is not showing in Terminal Server

Dear All,
I have created a addon for Automatic Sales Invoice printing that prints the crystal report directly to the printer bu opening a
print dialog box for printer selection through SDK code.
The Same addon works fine on the server with print dialog box being showing through SDK code.
But while running on Terminal Server , print dialog box is not showing any printer though printers are redirected to that
terminal server.I am not getting whether the problem is in my addon or in the terminal server printer settings.
Please suggest as i need to know the reason urgently.
Thanks
Amit

But while using terminal server , the print dialog box is not getting any printer in the dialog box .That's the major concern for me
is their any way to check that why the printers are not showing in print dialog box.
Thanks ,

Using Item UIDRef, can we get data as set in "text on path option" dailog box for each "text on path" item

Hi all,
I have a Item UIDRef but facing a problem for getting data as set in "text on path option" dailog box for each "text on path" item.
What I did:
- Getting the pointer "IMainItemTOPData" using item UIDRef as
InterfacePtr<IMainItemTOPData> mainItemTOPData(shapesUIDRef, UseDefaultIID());
- This interface has the method GetTOPOptionData () which return ITOPOptionsData pointer
- But SDK don't have "ITOPOptionsData" class implementation.
Second Approch:
- Used "ITextOnPathSelectionSuite" and getting the correct result for Desktop plugin.But I want the correct result in server plugin also.
Anyone who has an idea how to get this using UIDRef, please let me know.
Regards,
Jitendra Kumar Singh

After upgrading to Lion should I have tatty grey screen on opening with boxes for password user?

After upgrading to Lion on Wednesday last I now have a tatty grey screen on booting-up with the two boxes for user name and password.Gone is the old blue screen. Does anyone else have a grey opening screen?
Also this evening on booting the grey screen appeared but I could not immediately type any info into either box.After switching on/off several times I gave up and left the iMAC on with an inactive grey screen.About five minutes later the HP printer went through a re-calibration or cleaning process,of its own accord, and I noticed that the cursor on the screen had moved of its own accord.I then found that I could insert info into the two boxes and here I am with the iMAC open.Anone come across this issue?

Hello again Gary,
After trying your PRAM suggestion, everything was OK however, when I restarted my iMac the next day, the same Grey Screen apppeared whith the request for user name and password?
This has repeated for the last 3 days!
I have tried the Utility to check the HD "Verify Disk Permissions" which shows a long list of "faults"? and I have done this twice now.
Also I have to do the PRAM start-up in order to get online and use other programs. I get frequent messages that say my "Applications" are for the wrong OS?
After using the PRAM keyboard start-up I get a screen with a "Bar" similar to the Windows XP start-up proocess and a grey blob moves along this "Bar" until the iMac starts.
On one site it mentioned that this iMac may need an "Firmware" update/correction; however I can not find any Firmware to download for this machine.
My iMac is a 21.5" Model A1311.
Do I need to do a complete Format of the HDD and re-install Leopard and then try Lion again?
Very frustrated,
Maureen

Hi,
According to your descriptioin, I don't think this is system problem, it should be Intel driver problem. It would be contact Intel to confirm this issue whether this is their driver problem.

Free Youview box for new BT infinity customers

Does anyone know how to get the free youview box for new BT infinity customers? Ordered new service on 12th Dec and called in later to check how/when I'll get the Youview box. The CSR told me that I had to call after the broadband was installed to arrange to get the box and I would have to pay £5/mo for the TV service but according to the BT site, it's supposed to be free for BT infinity customers and £5/mo for other broadband customers (+ the £49 activation fee for all customers).
As I understand it, the offer ends 31st Jan but my infinity broadband is not scheduled to be installed until this Friday, 1st Feb (after a whole lot of aggravation, wasted time, incorrect info and failed follow-up by various BT reps). I'm afraid if I call in afterwards, I'll be told that I missed the deadline to get the box and/or I have to pay the monthly fee even though I'm a BT infinity customer.
Since BT phone reps have been unreliable, can anyone provide info on this? Thanks for your help

I wasn't aware I had to do this when I signed up. So you're saying even though my line isn't installed yet and I'm a new customer, there's no way to get this if I didn't add this at the time of order even though I know this offer was active when I signed up? When I signed up, there wasn't an option to add free TV service for 12 months for Infinity so I didn't add the service offered at £5. Would BT really use loopholes and technicalities to avoid providing something they've offered and put up billboards everywhere to promote?

How do I drag an image or text box to the "workspace" off of my working file but where I can still see the image and text box for future use?

How do I drag an image or text box to the "workspace" off of my working file but where I can still see the image and text box for future use?
When I drag the item off of the trifold that I am creating, it just disappears but I still want to use it. I just need to move it out of the way to modify other portions of the document.
thanks,

InDesign "Save As" dialog box for every operation in INDB book file; updating page numbers, etc.

So I haven't used INDB files in awhile in InDesign, and today was the first time I attempted to adjust an old INDB (created originally with CS5). For every operation of adjusting the book file, such as updating page/section number or adding/removing an INDD file I get a Save As dialog box for each constiuent INDD file. This is quite annoying since the book has lots of INDDs, and I have to click through the tedious save as with each. I previously worked with INDBs in CS5, and never encountered this, there was no need to save each INDD in the book just to update the page numbers. I tried creating a new INDB in CS5.5 thinking that maybe it was because I was working from a file created with an older version of InDesign. Does anyone know if there is a way to suppress the Save As dialog? Another thing I noticed that is supremely frustrating is that this new build of InDesign doesn't default to saving the file in its original location, and I have unwittingly ended up saving files in other places, only to later realize it. I am using InDesign CS5.5 Ver. 7.5.2 on Mac OSX 10.7.3 Any help is greatly appreciated.

It will only happen once (and frankly, what you are doing is a very bad idea).
When you open the old book in CS5, you are converting to the new format. All of the legacy files also need to be converted, even if added to a new book in CS5.5, hence the Save As since ID will not overwrite the old versions until you tell it to (and that's the bad idea). I strongly recommend (though it's too late for any books you've already updated and overwritten) that you either continue to edit in the old version, or that you take the time to open each file in the original version if it's older than CS5, then export to interchange format (.inx or .idml, depending on version), open those files in CS5.5, save with new names so you don't overwrite anything, then add to a new book and proceed.
One of the reasons I recommend this seemingly time-consuming approach is that there are too many reports (another one yesterday) of some sort of problem that pops up late in the editing cycle when converting legacy files to CS5/5.5 by opening them directly and saving. This is a belt and suspenders insurance approach, and is far less labor intensive than starting over, which might end up being your other option down the road if something goes wrong.

The little icons to the left of website names (such as the little white 'f' in a blue box for Facebook) on my list of Bookmarks have disappeared so that I now only have the names themselves, which makes it harder to navigate.

Normally, when I click on Bookmarks at the top of my screen, the list of websites that comes up includes a little icon to the left of each bookmark. Now I only get a list. No icons. What has happened to the little four-colored flag for Hotmail, the 'f' in a blue box for facebook, and all the rest? It's now much harder to navigate.

Problem solved. Brilliant! Thanks.
