Turn off frame edges in layers on hover?

Hello
Just upgraded to Indesign CS5, when you hover over a box the frame edges highlight in blue ( or what ever colour the object layer is on) is there a way to turn this distraction off?
I already have view > extras > hide frame edges on
Thanks
Matthew

Nope.
You're not the first to find it annoying, either

Turning off frame blending in Adobe Media Encoder

Is there a way to turn off frame blending in Adobe Media Encoder? I have a bunch of
Flip Mino HD footage (1280x720p) which I wish to convert to P2 720p format so that
I can more easily mix and match it in the Premiere timeline with actual P2 footage
shot on an HVX200.
I successfully used Media Encoder to perform this task but there is one problem. The
Flip footage is 30fps and P2 720p is 29.97fps. So Media Encoder uses frame blending.
The frame blending sometimes creates obnoxious artifacts so I would like to turn it
off but there seems to be no way to do this (or alternatively "conform" the 30fps input
to 29.97fps so that no blending is nescessary).
After Effects CS4 would seem like an alternative since it has nice batch composition
creation and rendering features but it cannot render to the P2 format - it appears to
have a older version of Media Encoder embedded within it - predating P2 support.
I would like a solution that is easily "batchable" as I have several hunderd Flip Mino HD
clips that need to be processed.
You might also ask, why not just import the Flip clips unchanged into Premiere CS4
and mix them with the P2 clips?....I have tried this and it seems to drive Premiere crazy
introducing various crashes and other strange behaviors. The pre conversion to P2
route seems to work fine. I just want to get rid of the frame blending.

I happened upon this video just before I made my posting and it doesn't help with the
crashes/hangs. When I import more than about 20 Flip Mino HD clips it seems to trigger
some sort of memory corruption bug in Premiere. Some of the clips start to just
show as solid green in their thumbnail views in the timeline and scrubbing the timeline
eventually hangs Premiere altogether. This is reproducible on two different computers
although the exact symptoms change slightly each time it is tried. Importing only 3 or 4
clips actually seems to work, at least for a short while.
The problems happen even if the only thing imported into the project are Mino footage and
the Sequence is set to Desktop or XDCAM mode. So the crashes have nothing to do
with P2 editing mode.
The same installation of Premiere CS4 on one of these computers has been just used to
successfully edit and render out a P2 project with hundreds of clips, stills and titles so the
basic CS4 installation seems to be solid.
I'll eventually file a bug report but for now I'm more interested in getting the job done.

FCP turns off when I turn off frame blending

Hi, I really hope that someone can help with this. I'm running FCP 5.1, 8 GB, 2.66 Ghz. Just starting yesterday, everytime I keyframe a move in the motion tab, as I click to turn off frame blending, FCP quits. No "app unexpectedly quit" warning or anything. Just shuts down. It's pretty annoying when you're on a deadline.
Anybody have any ideas? Please feel free to step up to the plate. Thanks!

Did you do any software updates recently? You should always clone your startup drive when you have a stable OS/Application combo. This way you can restore your system to it's previous state quickly.
Have you repaired permissions?

How to turn off frame edge highlighting in CS5?

Has anyone discovered how to turn off the frame edge highlighting on rollovers. I find this feature visually distracting and quite annoying as I'm moving around a page. Send advice, please. Thx.

Chief:
Sorry we got off track and didn't post the main workaround for Frame Edge Highlighting: Keep your hand on the spacebar.
This comes from Mike Rankin in the InDesign Magazine Tip of the Week in January:
TIP: Spring-Loaded Tools to the Rescue
InDesign tries very hard to help you align objects when you drag by snapping them Do you dislike the Frame Edge Highlighting that appears when you mouse over frames in CS5? Spring-loaded tools can help. Frame edge highlighting only appears when you use one of the selection tools. With spring-loaded tools, you can press and hold single keys to temporarily switch to any other tool. As long as you hold the key for more than a second, you'll switch back to your previous tool when you release the key. You have plenty of choices (t, \, p, f, m, n, c, e, g, z, etc).
Holding the spacebar also prevents the highlighting from appearing, and it's a nice big place for your fingers to rest. Heck, you don't even have to pay much attention to where you press--just rest your hand in the middle of the keyboard and lift it up when you want to select something. But don't hold v or a, which are the shortcuts for the selection tools.
- Mike Rankin
(Mike had suggests this several times in the past year, though not with the spacebar. E.g. he recommended 'H' back in June over on
InDesignSecrets. "H" for Hate).
There have been several threads on this, including the locked 201-post monster, Frame edge highlighting, and the feature request Allow Frame Edge Highlighting to be turned off, and frame edge highlights on hover.
Basically the takeaway is that it only happens with the selection (V) and direct selection (A) tools, and that multiple people have asked Adobe for a control to turn it off, and they've finally added one, but only in CS5.5, not in a CS5 maintenance release.

How Can I Turn Off Music On Separate Layers?

I have a number of different music selections on each on their own layer. Is there a way to simply turn off the sound in a layer so I can test different music tracks without having to delete the layer and drag a new sound in? In short when I preview my movie all of the sounds play at once but is there a way to simply turn off the sounds in each layer to test each music track separately. Is this possibe?

Add new keyframe in the layer you want the music to stop. Add the same sound and set its Sync to Stop. On the frame where your music starts, you should have Sync set to Start. To set Sync, select frame with music in it and check Properties panel -> Sound -> Sync.

Turning off frame blending option

In short, I'm slowing down a lot of clips but I want 'frame blending' off each time.
At the moment, it's a case of manually turning off the option every time I slow down a clip.
Is there a way to set FCP so that the "frame blending" checkbox is off by default?
Thanks in advance,
Dude

Where are you finding this checkbox?
You should be able to create an export batch that remembers this setting.

Now that we know your handle is associated with two extensively researched posts, I won't suggest that again.

CS5 Smart Guides: Can't Turn Off?

Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't seem to turn off the smart guides in CS5. The menu item is unchecked; turning them on and then back off again does nothing.
Is this a known issue? Operator error? Something else?

Wow that was quick.
In reply to:
And how do you figure turning off frame edges is going to make it LESS likely that you'd move the wrong object?
Well it wasn't in previous versions and now it is. Therefore I can gauge my performance based on previous versions.
For example at this moment I have a 2 sided A4 brochure that has to be at the printer by the morning. The job is for a surf company. The file contains a place illustrator file of a pretty complex illustration. There are photos and text boxes and on top of that I have several cut and pasted vector files from Illustrator as part of the theme that I need editable so I can change colours, gradients and transparencies. So all up there is a lot going on. I have quite a few more layers than usual, so that I can lock layers to prevent the "smart highlighting" happening. But in the design process I need a lot of elements active to be tweeked to get the file the way I want it to look.
Now I have a new mac with lots of RAM, but still when you have a complex file with lots of stuff going on, and you want to zoom in and change something quickly because the client who is sharing screen with you on skype wants to put a gradient fade behind a some text to give it some pop... which then makes a millisecond of redraw time happen and your mouse is also loaded to place an image at the same time into a frame, I have found that when you are moving your mouse across the page, while the "smart frame edges" function is occurring, the highlighted frame sometimes will dump the loaded image or eye dropped colour into an unintentional frame or element. It doesnt happen all the time but it is enough to make you want to write in a forum like this. I do this kind of work enough to know it is stifling the creative process. If I was designing a catalogue with a photo on one side and a description on the other there wouldn't be as much of a concern.
Sorry if the spelling is bad its almost 2am and I still have about an hour to go.

Layers turned off: any effect on render/preview times? large comp, need tips

I'm working with a very large resolution project, and looking for any tips related to speeding up preview/render times.
One question I have, are layers turned off still considered in the AE preview/render calculations in any way?
thank you
ML

The best way to work with such large stuff is to tile it up in pre-comps and then stitch it back together e.g. using parenting. that way areas completely outside the comp frame will not cause any rendering at all. If that's not possible because e.g. you get antialiasing issues at the seams, then it may help to temporally slice up your comp into segments by duplicating it as often as needed and then removing the parts from it that won't be visible in that segment. You can then reassemble the segments in a parent comp. This in particular helps with 3D comps and 2D comps with a lot of motion where e.g. motion blur calculations can considerably increase render times. It also helps with comps where you use certain third party effects like Particular, since they may still do their calculations even if stuff is not on screen.

FAQ: UI - How can I change the color theme, size of the text, or turn off the application frame?

CHANGING THE INTERFACE COLOR SCHEME:
The Photoshop CS6 default interface is dark, but if you prefer the lighter interface you are used to from earlier versions,
you can change it back in the appearance area. There are 4 default color themes.
Mac Photoshop > Preferences > Interface
Windows Edit > Preferences > Interface
CONFIGURING LARGER FONTS:
For those who need larger fonts, you can also change the UI Font Size down in the type area.
Be sure to restart Photoshop to see the changes.
TURNING OFF THE APPLICATION FRAME
CS6 opens now by default in "Application Frame". You can go Window>Application Frame in the main meu and uncheck this

Select the title / text and then click on the "i" (inspector). A colored pin wheel shows up after you click on the square box directly below the font settings inside the inspector window. Then simply drag the dot to the color you want. Like this:

Is turning off iFrames via about:config browser.frames.enabled;false broken in Firefox 23?

I noticed that Firefox with version 23 removed option to turn OFF JavaScriipt from Tools > Options > Content menu
http://www.extremetech.com/computing/163291-firefox-23-finally-kills-the-blink-tag-removes-ability-to-turn-off-javascript-introduces-new-logo
Recent events when allegedly FBI used JavaScript in iframe to exploit bug in Firefox with intentions to uncover identity of users of TOR network encouraged me to play with security settings a bit.
More about how FBI exploited Firefox bug to execute malitious JavaScript on users computers: https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-announce/2013-August/000089.html More biased articles can be found in popular media articles. Just google "TOR exploit FBI"
ISSUE:
Symptoms:
I noticed that turning iFrames OFF in about:config > browser.frames.enabled;false seems to not be working as expected. Iframes are still shown and JavaScript in them is executed. Doesnt work even after resterting Firefox.
Testing:
I used this pages to test iFrames:
•https://sites.google.com/site/annuairevin/test-page
•http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_iframe
•http://www.quirksmode.org/iframetest.html
After I turned browser.frames.enabled OFF and restarted I noticed that iFrames are still shown on all 3 pages and JavaScript in them would be executed.
By blocking IFRAMES with NoScript blocking turned ON (you have to turn forbidding IFRAMES on manually in options http://i.imgur.com/7jctoTW.png) I managed to block IFRAMES on google and w3school pages.
!!!Text in iframe "Test page in iframe" on quirksmode test page was still shown even after I have frames turned OFF in about:config and I block all scripts and frames and iframes with NoScript.
If I open same page (http://www.quirksmode.org/iframetest.html) with Opera with iFrames blocked in Preferences, iFrame is not shown at all, browser doesnt even render empty square; but JavaScript in it is executed, if you dont disable JavaScript in Preferences > Advanced.
I didnt test Chrome at all.
Possible things that can cause bug:
•I am using NoScript 2.6.7, I turned it off and on but it is possible that it is overriding Firefox settings in about:config. when you serach about:config for "frames" there are many settings mentioning frames from NoScript and AdBlockPlus.
•AdBlock Plus 2.3.2? Same reason as NoScript.
•Fot the first time I noticed Shield in the address bar with "Firefox has blocked content that isnt secure" bubble. http://i.imgur.com/K4FL65n.png. I dont know how long this feature is implemented or what exactly it does, here are some details: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-does-content-isnt-secure-affect-my-safety?as=u&utm_source=inproduct
P.S. Just small remark. If that is true: "Finally, Firefox 23 removes the option to disable JavaScript from the Options pane — and if you had JavaScript turned off, it has been turned back on." There should be some warning when Firefox is updated that JS was turned ON. I think that for me FF updated silently without any messages. OR maybe I blatantly closed some windows, i dont remember well.

The documentation I find on browser.frames.enabled is very vague, but I can't see that it does anything currently. Is this a feature you used successfully in an earlier version?
The Mixed [Active] Content Blocker was turned on by default in Firefox 23. That would explain the shield icon. Not sure whether implementing that might have changed how iframes are handled.

How do you turn off the auto select behavior when working with shape layers?

How do you turn off the auto select behavior when working with shape layers?
I am using either of the path selection tools to select only some of the paths on the layer. I have the proper layer targeted. I have the selection too auto select option turned off.
If another layer has a path in that area, that layer becomes auto targeted and I get the wrong path. Turning off the layer is the only way to avoid this but then I have to turn on the layer back on between making my selection and transforming to use the other layer as guide. Is there any way to stop this auto select? Locking the other layer does not stop the auto select, just prevents editing.

As far as i know the move tool options don't have any effect on the path selection tools.
You might try clicking on one of the path points or on the path itself with one of path selection tools and if you want to select multiple points
you can shift click with the Direct Selection Tool or Alt click to select the entire path.
more path shortcuts:

BUG: Layers that are turned off show up in published pages

Layers that have visibility turned off in the timeline still show up in the published page.
Also, these layers didn't have keyframes, which means they stayed on the entire time once they were instantiated.
This makes it NOT appear within the program, but DOES appear when publishing. Was driving me crazy, and should be considred a program bug, since turning off visibility should be both in the software and the published page.
- Ian

Hi,
Thanks for the quick response.
I can't send a link at the moment, but it should be reproduceable by creating a layer on the timeline, clicking the EYE icon to unset Element Visibility, then publishing or previewing. The element will still be visible on the preview and the published page.
I would expect the behavior of all layers that had visibility turned off to not be visible in the published page or preview.

I can't turn off picture frame by using the settings passcode...the button won't turn it off.

I can't turn off picture frame on the lock screen. The button accessed through settings won't let me turn it off. How do I do this? Thanks.

You can only turn off Picture Frame if you have a passcode lock set on the iPad - if you don't have a passcode lock then the on/off slider is protected
