Trying to create a text that is on fire or more like a hot branding iron

Something like this?
That was from a project I did a few months ago. Sounds similar to what you want. I did that in After Effects.
Basically all I did was add a glow effect to the text and messed around with the glow parameters. The black smoke is animated and moves on the actual video and is basically some pre keyed smoke footage that I had. The smoke was originally gray but black looked cooler.
I'd say it's pretty close to your hot branding iron thing.

I am creating a form on LiveCycle Designer and I am trying to create a form that has a e-mail submit button. When the butten is utilized it attaches the form to the e-mail in an plain text .xml format rather than the pdf format. Is there a quick fix?

Hi,
You have the choice between xml or pdf, in later versions of designer you can choose with a dropdown on the email button Object palette, the "Submit As";
In earlier version you had to edit the XML Source and change the format from xml to pdf (or vice-versa);

Trying to create a text item with a scroll bar in Indesign 5.5

Is there a simple way to create a scrollable text article in Indesign 5.5? It will later be exported to a SWF as a mini-flash web portfolio.
I would appreciate any help.
I'm new to Indesign.

Do you mean a text box people can type in (for a Web form
entry) or one for displaying your content?
If the first, then you use the textarea tag and scrollbars
appear when the user types more lines that you specify. See the
textarea
description at W3Schools.
If the second, then that's usually done in Flash, but can be
done with CSS. See these two pages:

Whfree can i find my channels in elements 11..i am trying to create a text effect

I am trying to create a text effect that requires me to make all channel active. Normally in photoshop i can find the tab near my layers but they are not there.

There is no channels palette in Elements.
You can select channels in the levels command. There is generally a way to do what you want in Elements; can you give more details about what you want to achieve?

Trying to create a service that starts at boot

People,
I'm trying to create a service that will start at boot (in single-user mode, actually). I am up and running but I do NOT want to run the service now. I only want to run the service when the machine reboots.
I've been rummaging around all day trying to figure this out but I'm stuck. I can create a service that runs. I can create an XML file in /var/svc/manifest/site/patch-install.xml that will be read when I boot- because after I boot, I can list the service:
svcs -a | grep patch
disabled       18:23:23 svc:/site/patch-install:defaultI have inserted the following in my xml:
<create_default_instance enabled='true' />and also
<create_default_instance enabled='false' />but it makes no difference. Anyone have any idea? What is the purpose of create_default_instance? I don't understand; item 9 on http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/content/selfheal/sdev_intro.html seems rather opaque to me.
Also, what exactly is the purpose of /var/svc/profile/ ? I tried putting some code to enable my xml but it didn't do anything. Just wondering if this might fit into the picture.
BTW, I do not want the login prompt to appear until my method is complete.
Thanks.

I only want to run the service when the machine reboots.I'd probably create the service now (by importing the manifest manually rather than waiting for the reboot), then set general/enabled in the default instance to be be true with svcprop. That should tell it to start at boot, but not enable it immediately.
I've been rummaging around all day trying to figure this out but I'm stuck. I can create a service that runs. I can create an XML file in /var/svc/manifest/site/patch-install.xml that will be read when I boot- because after I boot, I can list the service:Yes, that's the default. Or you can load it immediately to create the service now.
# svccfg import patch-install.xml
I have inserted the following in my xml:
<create_default_instance enabled='true' />and also
<create_default_instance enabled='false' />but it makes no difference. Anyone have any idea? What is the purpose of create_default_instance? I don't understand; item 9 on http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/content/selfheal/sdev_intro.html seems rather opaque to me.There's a difference between a "service" like network/smtp or console-login and an "instance" like network/smtp:sendmail or console-login:default. In most cases, you just want a single "default" instance of your service. The above line sets the default instance 'enabled' property to true or false. When I import your manifest as is, the service comes in as 'disabled'. If I set it to true, it comes in as 'maintenance' (almost certainly because it was enabled, tried to start, and couldn't find the start method on my machine).
Also, what exactly is the purpose of /var/svc/profile/ ? I tried putting some code to enable my xml but it didn't do anything. Just wondering if this might fit into the picture.'profiles' are loaded exactly once, and they are mainly used to set certain services to enabled or disabled.
3 of them are loaded if present, platform.xml, generic.xml, and site.xml. The last is not generated by the OS, but left for you to use. But it's usually only useful as a "first boot" type thing. Because if you make changes to it, it will not be reread. This isn't usually a problem because after first boot you're in control of the services. The usual thing is that at first boot the manifests load to create services, then the profiles are loaded to set then enabled or disabled. This isn't possible before that point because there's no service to modify yet.
BTW, I do not want the login prompt to appear until my method is complete.Any login prompt like a network login, or only the console login prompt? If the latter, then you'll want a dependency so that system-console-login depends on your service. But if your service has a problem at boot time, you'd make it difficult to log in.

Trying to create this Text Transition...

Hi guys, can anyone help, I'm trying to create a text transition like the one below in FCP...
http://www.alex.mastersofcreation.com/alexw/spacetesttransition/spacetesttransit ion.html
Just something similar, does anyone know of any useful plugins or tips?
Thanks

Create your text layer with the title and blow it up to be the size of the screen and keyframe it so it moves right>left. Place the second layer of video (the one you're transitioning into) below the text layer, and set the text layer's composite "Travel Matte".
Nest (or export with an alpha channel and bring back in) this sequence above your first layer of video.

Trying to create a property that has a structure to it

Hello:
I am trying to create a property that has a structure to it. Specifically, I am trying to create a multi-valued property called checks. This property is composed of check number, check date and check amount.
The data for this should display like the rows in a table, like an Excel spreadsheet.
I realize this is a tall order. However, is this possible? I have tried the composed of feature, but did not find this to work.
The best I could come up with so far is to have three multi-valued properties each for check number, check date and check amount. The user would then need to ensure that the first entry for check number applies to the first entry for check date, and then the second entry for check number applies to the second entry for check date, and so on, and so on...
Any ideas?
Thanks.

In the detailed help for the event structure there is a link to caveats and recommendations for using event structures. It is a good starting point.
It is courteous to let the Forum know when your questions are related to a school assignment or homework. We are glad to help you learn LabVIEW, but do not do your homework for you.
You have learned the major disadvantage of the sequence structure: It must run to completion before anything else can happen.
If you are building a state machine (typically a while loop with shift registers enclosing a case structure with one case per state) and having trouble with timing, then think about your requirements. Apparently you have some time delays, but under certain conditions you must terminate a delay/wait and do something else. One way of doing this is to have a Wait state. The wait state has a short delay, determined by the minimum time you can delay responding to a changed condition, and a check to see if the required elapsed time has occurred. If the time has not elapsed, the next state is the Wait state again. The state machine can repeat any state as often as necessary. So a 15 second delay could be implemented by going to a Wait state with a one second wait 15 times. Any error or new command will see a response in no more than one second.

Hi, I tried to create a slideshow that contain more than 500 photos. Now, trying to open / execute / select the slideshow, iPhoto hangs with the spinning coloured wheel and I have only to force the deletion from System Preference. Any suggestion?

Hi, I tried to create a slideshow that contain more than 500 photos. Now, trying to open / execute / select the slideshow, iPhoto hangs with the spinning coloured wheel and I have only to force the deletion from System Preference. I already tried to rebuild the iPhoto Library (all the possible options) and tried to update teh version from 9.4.3 to 9.5 but the problem still persists: is there a way to delete this slideshow without selecting it ? How can I solve the problem, please?
Kind Regards

Can you restore your iPhoto Library from a backup version, that was created before you added the slideshow?
If not, have you tried to rebuild the slideshow with iPhoto Library Manager?
As described by Terence Devlin here: Re: iphoto library was created with an unrelased version of iphoto please quit and ugrade library by opening it in iphoto 2 or iphoto 4

Problems trying to create scrollable text in InDesign CC

I'm making an interactive presentation in InDesign. Im trying to create some scrollable text. i didn't know how to do that in CC, so I looked up some videos over the web and learned I needed to use the "Folio Builder" or the "Overlay panel". i never was able to find the latter and the Folio Builder gives me this message: "A software update is required to use Digital Publishing Suite. Please go to the Help menu and select Updates to get the required software." My software is already up-to-date (at least that's what the Adobe Application Manager tells me). Is this happening because I'm using a trial version? I'm planning to buy the Creative Cloud package but first I need to know it's worthy. Thanks for your help!

You are most likely looking at some very old videos. As it happens my DPS
course was just released on lynda.com:

Pan & Zoom option in Overlay Creator disabled/grayed out when trying to create scrolling text

Hi all,
I'm trying to create a scrolling text frame using the Paste Into method. I've created a long text frame, cut it, pasted into another frame. When I go to the Overlay Creator and click Pan & Zoom, it tells me to select a cropped image. I've tried an identical work flow on another computer and it works fine - the pan only radio button is available.
I've reinstalled the CS5 extensions, restarted my Mac and I can't resolve the issue. I only downloaded the extension tools last week, so I'd hope they aren't too out of date now. The About screen tells me I'm on 11.4.2.20111116_m_671500 7.0.3.13
Any help appreciated.

The best place to get the new builds is the DPS Dashboard (https://digitalpublishing.acrobat.com). You can also view the detailed help topic about installing:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/digitalpubsuite/using/WS67cb9e293e2f1f60-21ba9a4512e5e5e0b8d-7 ffe.html
If you install the Folio Producer tools and then the Folio Builder panel, you should be able to sign in just fine. Let us know if you still get the error.

Question: How to create a text that scrolls on touch imputs

I'm realy new to anything dealing with flash. I'm trying to make an app that contains alot of information under several different sub catagories. i dont want a simple page app where you do the ( next ) page button. I want the app to scroll the text up and down based on touch gestures. The problem is with my lack of experience with flash I don't know the codes that i should use to achieve this concept.
if some one could show me a code that would work for this i would be greatly appriciative.
Again I'm looking for a code that I can apply to a text box that will allow for it to be scrolled up and down using a touch gesture. The action snipets that i have been using for most everyting els dosn't seem to have a touch gesture that is complete enough for me to use in this way.

var m,b:Number;
paramF(10,0,tf.height-10,tf.maxScrollV);
tf.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, downF);
tf.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, upF);
function downF(e:MouseEvent):void{
    this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,tfF);
function upF(e:MouseEvent):void{
    this.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,tfF);
function tfF(e:Event):void{
    tf.scrollV = Math.min(tf.maxScrollV,Math.max(0,Math.round(m*tf.mouseY+b)));
function paramF(x1:Number,y1:Number,x2:Number,y2:Number):void{
    m = (y1-y2)/(x1-x2);
    b = y1-m*x1;

Customer b 0 3 4 7
etc.
I want to put this info into a form to make it more presentable. Can anyone help me with this?

Trying to create a loop that stores x variables of a class I created

I created the class Dice. To create a new Dice with 6 sides, I do
Dice name = new Dice(6); Next, I have the class DiceN which is supposed to create N dices and store them inside an array or ArrayList. The constructor of DiceN´s takes in a number n that the constructor uses to create n dices. This is what I´d like the class DiceN to be like:
import java.util.*; // to use ArrayList
public class DiceN {
ArrayList dices = new ArrayList(); // holds all the dices the constructor will construct
public DiceN( int n ) { // the constructor that creates n dices
    for ( int i = 0; i < n; i++ ) {
      Dice x_i = new Dice(6); // if n = 3, the variables x_0, x_1 and x_2 will be created: 3 dices with 6 sides each
      dices.add(x_i); // each time a dice is created it is stored in the arrayList for further usage
}Obviously, one can´t dynamically create instances of Dice by using the code in the for loop, but how can I create n many dices and store them into the ArrayList, or even better, in an array without knowing beforehand how many dices will be constructed?

Dice x_i = new Dice(6); // if n = 3, the variables x_0, x_1 and x_2 will be created: 3 dices with 6 sides eachOffcourse instances with names like x_0, x_1 and x_2 are not created here. But Different instances are indeed created, each time having same name x_i ( there is no relation between 'i' in x_i and 'i' in for loop, so x_0, x_1, etc won't be created).
Here new Dice(6) will each time create new instances, so it serves the purpose as required by you.
For your better understanding try running below sample code and see value of 'a' is different for each instance because they indeed different instances stored in ArrayList:
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class DiceCheck
     public static void main(String[] args)
          DiceN diceN = new DiceN(3);
          diceN.showDices();
class Dice
     int sides;
     int a=0;
     public Dice(int sides)
     this.sides = sides;
     public int getA()
          return a;
     public void setA(int a)
          this.a = a;
class DiceN
     ArrayList dices = new ArrayList();
     public DiceN(int n)
          for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
               Dice x_i = new Dice(6);
               x_i.setA(i);
               dices.add(x_i);
     public void showDices()
          for(int i=0;i<dices.size();i++)
               Dice x_i = (Dice)dices.get(i);
               System.out.println(x_i.getA());
}
