Two feature requests:

Two feature requests for Acrobat 10: 
1) Sticky notes where I can change
the font on each individual one (I use Greek, Hebrew and English and would
like to be able to specify the font in each sticky note.
2) Mp3 sound on link option.  Wav's are too big and old.
Both of these are really important to me.  I hope you can add them.

Sticky notes where I can change
the font on each individual one (I use Greek, Hebrew and English and would
like to be able to specify the font in each sticky note.
Acrobat is a unicode aware application. If you change the language of the keyboard to Greek doesn't it allow you to type Greek letters?

  • Two feature requests (custom graphic placeholders & variables)

    After building several pages document templates, there are two features that would be a big help.
    First, I created some graphical text boxes similar to those used in many manuals. The color coded box contains placeholder text and an icon to indicate note type. It would be great if I could define and manage these similar to pages. Allow the user to insert a warning box, an informational note, etc. These items would be self contained graphics with placeholder text, etc. User inserts one, modifies the text and then moves it into place. Each template should support an unlimited number of these document specific graphical objects.
    Second, There needs to be a generalized variable scheme similar to the new address book feature. If I insert a page type, I might want to carry the section title or other info as one or more variables so that they can appear in later headers, footnotes, etc. for that section. Using the Business:Meeting template as an example. If I add a agenda page, it would be nice to automatically carry the meeting date and topic in the header of each additional page of agenda. Currently, the user would have to type/format info in page 1 of agenda and remember to do it in the header of agenda page 2 if the agenda failed to fit on a single page. If this info was in variables, I could define/format it for use the the header except for the first page so that it would automatically appear if the agenda ran long.
    Our company has begun using Pages '06 for documents that must be repeatedly repurposed for customer email, web page spec sheets, quotes, etc. since the templates can simply be saved as pages documents on the Admin. Assist.'s machine and stored as PDFs in a public area. The admin can easily keep both locations current as specs change, etc.

    Hello delemex,
    welcome to the Pages Discussions. But if you want to reach the developers you should send them a notice about your thoughts. Here we are all users and we try to help each other to solve problems (alright, sometimes we discuss features, too).
    Follow this link http://www.apple.com/feedback/pages.html to send a feedback.

    This thread has been closed and is continued in this new thread here: 
    Feature Requests beyond BlackBerry OS10.3.1
    Please click on that link.
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    Let's use this thread to list BlackBerry10 OS feature requests. There's nothing official to this thread, but one never knows who might view it and get an idea or two to move foward.
    Please let's keep it to feature requests with simple short statements and comments, in this manner:
    1. Ability to lock the volume keys (since they are so easliy pressed when retrieving from holster)
    2. Personal distribution groups Address Book
    4. Add BBM Group icon to home screen
    **This thread is not for bug reports (i.e., the calendar glitches when I set the date) or for debate or discussion of the worthiness of a feature request.
    So, what would YOU add to BB10?
    What do YOU need to make the OS platform work better for you?

    Custom vibration options.
    Move Send button in BBM to avoid accidental submission of message

    Send SMS to new numbers (I think you can still do this from call log)
    Single key press to change profiles.
    Insert a picture into an e-mail. (I think he means into the body of email)
    Turning off links of contacts (I think poster did not have multiple accounts, actually BB10 goes ahead and adds all new contacts into all address books in all accounts without user permission.. Create a contact in Hotmail? Gets copied to Gmail.. and then linked, terrible implementation in my opinion)
    Presets for browser bookmarks, faster access to bookmarks. (My suggestion was to create a home screen, select 12 icons 3x4 or 16 icons 4x4 as home screen/start page)
    Being able to allow flash based on website/url/server.
    Ability to adjust different sounds/volumes for different BBM users/groups
    Better Voice Dial and Voice Commands (shorter and easier operation)
    Ability close one or all web pages/tabs, add "Close All" button.
    Call Recording
    Faster way to delete e-mails, such as file icons next to e-mails,  or Swipe to Delete! Swipe to File!?
    Customize email signatures with formatting.
    Phone to stay on screen (dial pad always available in panes)
    More Options for Clock.
    In Playbook we can have a single character password, why not on BB10? "too short" well it is my decision, isn't it?
    There is no way to go next/previous while reading an e-mail. Please add these functions.
    Add to the e-mail client, Next Unread / Previous Unread.
    E-mail or Hub should have more buttons at the bottom in landscape mode. Why keep only three (or four in e-mail view) buttons when you have the real estate. It would be extremely handy if you allowed users to edit which buttons should go at the bottom. Next Previous is really needed while reading an e-mail. For example I would love to add "File" button at the bottom as a shortcut instead of forward, I rarely forward, but I file all the time. Maybe allow users to have two row of keys, add next/previous/unread. Or it could be done with a gesture. How about swiping the account name (top blue bar while reading e-mail) left and right?
    When you create a new contact in BlackBerry, it gets synced to all accounts on the Hub. There is no way to limit the new contact to a specific account.
    Sometimes when you file an e-mail to a folder, it stops and waits few seconds with no message. Even when it files immediately, there is a confirmation message that takes time to appear and disappear, and the folder list does not disappear automatically.
    Messages filed automatically by server using server side filter rules are still showing up on Blackberry hub/inbox. In older BB versions the filtered messages did not show up in the list, filed messages still did.
    When you filter your e-mails using Filter / Unread function, new unread e-mails do not show up until you close the filter and re-open. It won't just keep refreshing your screen with unread e-mails. Can BB add a button to the hub "Unread Hub" so when hub shows 8 or 2, you can actually see unread items easily without having to through so many taps.
    Native BB QR scanner (Smart Tags) does not work with barcodes (it only scans with no way to use the information). There is Open In function but it doesn't work properly.
    We need to add more customs search providers, and be able to add custom search strings/wildcards. For example currently there is Google, Bing, Yahoo, Foursquare, etc..
    I hope BB introduces the ability include more standard & custom searches, IMDB, PriceGrabber, Ebay, Youtube, XYZ Forums, ABC Newspaper, 123 Database, Etc.. Most sites nowadays provide search string in their URL Search=?* etc...
    None of the Battery apps can access system settings to add a battery icon to the top. I wish battery percentage was there.
    There is no way to check carrier/mobile signal strength.
    Blackberry, please add the date and carrier / SSID info to the top. Sometimes we just want to glance at the top to see the date without having to swipe.
    Please bring back keyboard shortcuts. Since we can easily swipe up to bring the keyboard, just add keyboard shortcuts in e-mail, phone (true speed dialing, dialing by word?), and browser, etc.. if possible. I could always call 1800SOMETHING# now I have to look up the number or use dial pad.. Please bring it back.
    Camera zoom function needs to be fixed, also please include option of fixed focus by tapping on the screen to focus. The auto focus in video is focusing in and out to various objects all the time. Stabilization feature also causes tearing/ripples, I guess it is good if you are stationary. Or use Volume Keys to Zoom.
    Please allow more than 12 icons in an icon group/folder, I hated Apple for limiting apps per folder, please fix it.
    Auto ON/OFF feature is not there anymore. BB should consider Auto DND (DoNotDisturb) or Auto Silent/Airplane modes instead.
    Please find a way to stop the music app from automatically starting up every time it connects to bluetooth like car audio. This is very annoying.
    No Panaroma mode in Camera app, why not? It is very easy to incorporate. This could be a nice addition to next release, and easy.
    The text selection grips needs to be a little bigger, sometimes I cannot see where I am moving them, they work better in Playbook, nice big tabs.
    Call Functions, before answering a phone add sideways gesture functions, like swiping right will forward the call, swiping left will answer with a test message, etc..
    Or there should be a way to reject the call without sending it to voice mail, phones had this function a decade ago, I don't know what happened to it.
    We used to be able to see the "History" without having to save the contact. Now I don't see any way to "View History" of a certain phone number, it just keeps adding
    them as individual entries to the log. Now I can't see when was the last time they called me, how many times we spoke which day, etc... I loved this feature in BB5.
    Where is BB Traffic? Where is BB Weather, without having to run an active frame? It will eventually disappear if you run too many apps. I liked a little Icon that shows me what the temp is, instead of running a whole app.
    There is no Skype. This day and age with all other platforms having it, please either get skype (Microsoft) to cooperate, or open up BBM to other platforms. If necessary, pay Skype to develop the app, then charge BB users for the app. Most will gladly pay.
    Can we tap and hold on an active frame to pin it, or can we pin two favorite apps between Call and Search & Search and Camera buttons in the bottom bar? How about Close All running Active Frames app to quickly free up ram?
    I hope next generation devices have two speakers or speaker that is facing forward. When playing games or watching videos in landscape mode, I find my palm muting the speaker. I have to hold it gently with fingers to have a gap in between, something I don't want to do when I am on the subway or bus.
    Blackberry Maps should have a Zoom In/Zoom Out buttons, sometimes using it with one hand, it is impossible to zoom in and out. (Zoom in is OK but we can't zoom back out)

  • BUGS and FEATURES REQUESTED. Please add to it.

    I've been using the z10 for the past couple weeks and wanted to start a thread of comprehensive Bugs and Features Requested.
    I've labeled Bugs by letters (A,B,C...) and Features Requested by numbers (1, 2, 3...) so that others can add sequentially.
    BUGS
    (Not listed in any particular order)
    (A.) Contact App adds current date as birthday. When I edit my contact, the current date gets listed as the birthday in local contact.
    (B.) Duplicate telephone numbers listed. Telephone numbers show up twice in my Contacts (e.g.., if I have the contact's cell saved in (000) 123-4567 format and the person has the number listed in Facebook, I get a duplicate entry of +10001234567).
    (C.) Telephone numbers and emails are not actionable in Web pages. In webpages, I can't click on telephone number to call (e.g., I look up a phone number for a restaurant). I should be able to easily call or copy into the Phone App or E-mail App.
    (D.) Auto capitulation for words on the word substitution list is wrong. For example, when the word substitution contains more than one word. I have "ru" change to "are you" but if the first letter is capitalized (R) then both words become capitalized words (Are You). I used to have shortcuts like "mysig" to create email signatures with legal disclaimers but I can't do that now.
    (E.) Backspace delete doesn't work consistently. The Shift+Delete function seems only to work after moving the cursor. This feature is the Alt+Del action to delete words after the cursor.
    (F.) All Emoticons do not list. Emoticons do not all fit on the the two screens (lists) of emoticons. I.e., two columns are missing from view and can be seen when sliding (swiping) between the lists. Also, sometimes when I select an emoticon, it doesn't correspond with the picture of the one I intended. I believe this error is related. As a separate note, there should be a way to see the underlying symbols of the emoticon. (Often times, other people don't have BlackBerrys so I'd like to know what symbols would be sent--my prior 9800 would show the characters as i scrolled through them).
    (G.) BlackBerry keyboard doesn't always work in input fields. E.g., certain Web pages. (I found a work around; two finger swipe up from the bottom makes the keyboard appear)
    (H.) Sent messages stay unread. This seems to be an issue when an app sends an email (e.g., share article). The email with the sent indicator (checkmark) stays bold and I have listed 1 unread email. I can't mark as read/unread but if I delete the sent email, my unread message gets cleared.
    (I.) Contact already added but I get the option to add instead of view contact. For some contacts, I get the option to add to contacts in the action menu cascade when that person is already in my address book. This bug is for emails and text messages.
    (J.) Cannot call from text message. When I hold a text message and select call under the action menu cascade, the OS opens up the phone app but doesn't call.
    (K.) Composing messages by name. When composting messages, the input must be by first, middle and last name. It should be, instead, by string and include nickname. E.g., if the person's name is "Andrew B. Cameron" I must type the name in as such. I can't type in "Andrew Cameron" or "Andy Cameron."
    Features Requested and Suggestions for Improved User Experience
    (In no particular order)
    1)      Option to reply in different ways from the Call List. Be able to select a name in a call list and have options to call, text or email the person. The action menu allows calls to other numbers but I can't choose to text or email the contact instead. Sometimes, I missed a call and want to reply via text because I’m not able to talk. (Long hold on the Torch 9800 trackpad button brought up the action menu allowing me to call, text, view history, add to speed dial, e-mail, delete, etc.)
    2)      Option to reply in different ways from the Hub. Related to above, when selecting an item in the hub, have the option to contact the sender or caller with multiple different ways.
    3)      Only show number once in contacts application. Tap on the number to bring up the "action" cascade menu with options to call or text the number. Why is the same number listed twice (once to call and below again to text it)?
    4)      Timestamps for individual text messages. I can't tell exact time on individual text message if it comes in near the time of another text. All messages are in one "bubble."
    5)      Ability to select MMS or text for a message. Sometimes I write a text longer than 160 characters and I prefer it to be sent in one message (i.e., MMS mode) rather than being broken into one or more standard text messages. I had this ability with my 9800.
    6)      Send button should be moved for text messages!!! Why the heck is it right underneath the delete button?!? Or next to the period button? I often times have accidentally hit send when composing text. It's very annoying and embarrassing. (Also, what happened to the ability to hit enter for a return carriage to next line?)
    7)      Bigger magnifying glass. My finger is often over the area I need to place the cursor. I find it difficult and erratic to place the cursor.
    8)      Select all option. Add the option to select all text in action menu cascade.
    9)      E-mail recipients and message headers. Difficult to tell if you are one of many email recipients. Can we have a way to pull the email down to see the list of recipients rather than have to click to expand the header info? I know this request is a little picky, but that's how it was done in the previous BlackBerry OS which I preferred; it is easier and faster to pull the e-mail down and 'peek' to see which e-mail box received the message, message status, from and to fields. This change would be consistent with BB's flow/peek rather than click.
    10)   Browser navigation. Hold down back arrow to get a list of recently visited websites similar to a desktop browser.
    11)   Dark/Night mode. A night mode (maybe in the drop down menu) to change all the white and bright backgrounds to black or dark which would be helpful when reading/viewing things at night in bed/etc.
    12)   Number of contacts. Ability to see how many contacts I have.
    13)   What happened to groups or categories? I'd like to have back the ability to filter or see categories and also a way to contact everyone in a category. E.g., family or friends or coworkers, etc.
    14)   Shutter sound mute. I was at a wedding and wanted to take pictures during the ceremony but the shutter would was too loud.
    15)   East Asian Language Input. I bought my parents two Samsung Galaxy S3 phones over the weekend because they need Korean input (and the Kakao talk app). (BTW, S3 is a great phone but I prefer the Z10 after having the weekend to use the Android phones).
    16)   Ability to freely place icons on the homesreen. Currently, icons are forced top left-right-to-bottom. I prefer to space my icons out.
    17)   Add a contact to the homescreen. I'd like to place a shortcut (similar to a Webpage) to the homescreen for a contact which will open up the contact. Android allows this feature and so did my previous 9800.
    18)   Search Contacts by nickname. The contacts app doesn't allow me to search by, e.g., Andy, even if I have that as my contact's nickname. The previous OS allowed this type of search which was very helpful.
    Finally, as a note, I've been using the BlackBerry Z10 for the past 2 weeks and it's a great platform. I just bought two Samsung Galaxy S3 phones over the weekend for my parents so they could use the Korean language input and related features so I spent a lot of time with the Android platform, setting it up and teaching them how to use it. The S3 is a great phone too.
    I prefer, however, the way BlackBerry has done their OS 10 and the integrated management of messages.
    It's too bad that BB doesn't have Korean input and apps like Kakao Talk or I would have considered it for them.
    The BlackBerry 10 is a great platform and I look forward to the continual improvements that will only make the experience better.

    This is a great post.
    I couldn't have written it myself better.
    I'm also in dying need of Korean input as I can't communicate with my Korean friends.
    But I second every point.
    I hope the tech teams are reading this.

  • Lost & Found iPhone with Find My iPhone - Feature Request

    Yes I found the lost phone and I'm very very grateful for the existing feature which works flawlessly once you get a hold of it but from a real life use case, there are things that can be improved that will make it more efficient and effective. This is a summary of feature requests that I figure from the real-life use case of Find My iPhone.
    Earlier this week my friend dropped his iPhone on a cab and realize at the end of the day (he initially thought he left it at home) that it must have fell off his pocket in the cab where he can hardly remember the color of the cab let alone the license plate. Having said that I asked him if he had iCloud turned on (basically Find My iPhone in recent iOS) and so we checked. So here is where all the difficulties begin and please keep in mind that in a situation like this we're always in a hurry if not panicking.....
    1. You typically have more than 1 mobile phones:
    a.) Where its most likely different brand, model, or OS (you don't buy two identical phones) so in this case he has a Samsung Android where iCloud page can not be rendered - it throws an error. So this didn't work
    b.) You need to borrow your friend's "iPhone" to find it and not many people find it obvious that you need to download the Find my iPhone app in addition to just activating iCloud to track a phone. Thats another long step considering in some countries u have a really crappy 3G or sometimes on Edge
    c.) If you are lucky your friend have an iPhone or an iPad, you go to www.icloud.com it doesn't do anything except tell you "how to turn on icloud", download Find my Friends, and Find my iPhone.....you need a laptop browser to be able to use the tracking feature....why????? I understand that it won't work with other brands of mobile phones but these are both Apple's!!!
    2. When you realize that you have lost your phone, you don't always have your laptop or an iPad - but you always have mobile phones let it be your secondary one or your friend's. Moreover, your laptop rarely have cellular connection so even if you have it, aside from the fact that it takes you 15 minutes to boot up your laptop, you also have to find yet ANOTHER phone to tether or find a 3G card to plug in to it so it can use cellular as oppose to just wifi, and then walk around with a laptop looking for the lost phone. And laptop don't have GPS, you don't know where you are relative to your lost phone.
    3. You are trying to look for your iPhone from another iPhone (the most convenient way) but you only see ONE dot that shows your lost iPhone but not "you" who are walking around looking for it so you have to:
    1.) Open the Find My Iphone app and then see where your phone is located
    2.) Open up Google Map (sad but true, Google map is currently the preferable map) to find where you are. Why Google map? In a less developed country, google maps works a lot better in detail.
    3.) Try to find where you are relative to where the lost phone is across 2 maps and 2 different apps. But even if it was Apple map, its still 2 different apps switching back and forth.
    Yes, the idealistic case which would disregard all this is that you have 2 Apple devices logged on to the same iCloud account then you can see 2 dots but not everyone have enough of that to make it useful :-)
    4. You use to have a send message button, lock the phone, make noise, and erase the phone. Now you need to first lock the phone before you can send a message. Understand that you should always lock the phone first but when you're panicking, making the feature obvious would help
    5. Would be nice to know the "percentage" of the battery and being able to shut down all the apps, dim the screen, and etc. to maximize the battery time before the phone goes dead might be helpful.
    It was almost a miracle to get the phone back in a place like this where people tend to immediately shut down your phone and throw away the sim card once they get a hold of it. My friend was very lucky that the phone was in silent and fell into the crack of the backseat and the cab was parked outside the garage so the GPS location was absolutely precise.
    Having mentioned that, iOS7 new security feature that requires your Apple login credentials to erase or turn off Find my iPhone. My question here being it says, find my iphone can continue to display message even after erased - if that is the case will I still be able to track it as well? What if I'm the person who erased it remotely, will I still be able to display message as well as track it?

    This is a user to user community, Apple are unlikely to read your comments, if you have any suggestions that you think might enhance iCloud you can send Apple your feedback here.
    We also can't speculate on what exactly iOS 7's new security features will actually do, all that's available is what has been said so far by Apple, anyone using a developer version is forbidden to discuss it anywhere but in the developers community.

  • FEATURE REQUEST: Enhanced Texture Options in FW

    Recently, a forum user was asking how to change the color of a texture in Fireworks to red or blue. In particular, he/she was struggling with attempting to apply a texture to a white object, and it wasn't showing up.
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1006694?tstart=0
    The question got me thinking about textures, how they're created and how they're applied. Textures are a unique and distinctive feature of Fireworks. On the one hand, the interface for textures is very simple to use and almost magical; on the other hand, it's surprisingly limited. The concept is great, but the implementation seems only half-baked.
    With this in mind, I'd like to suggest a few simple ways that textures could be made more fluid and versatile in Fireworks.
    First, a little background...
    WHAT IS A TEXTURE?
    In the world of Fireworks, a texture is basically a type of pattern that's applied to an object. However, unlike a pattern fill, textures include transparency and integrate with the existing fill content (color, gradient or pattern). They're suggestive of textures in the real world, which are often tactile and defined visually by light and shadow.
    Texture graphics are most commonly grayscale ("black and white") in GIF or PNG format. Applied within the application, the graphics are converted "on the fly" to white-on-transparency. If the Transparent option is checked, the graphic is converted into a sort of mask, making the "textured" areas invisible instead of white.
    And that's about it.
    So what if you'd like to apply a dark texture to a white object? Sorry, it can't be done. What if you'd like to apply a texture in color? It can't be done. What if you'd like to reverse or invert the pattern of the texture? Can't be done.
    Well, in fact, these things can be done, but not directly. They require workarounds such as cloning the object and placing the clone above or beneath the original, applying textures as pattern fills (instead of as textures) and adding effects like Color Fill, Invert, and Convert to Alpha, or editing the texture file directly, saving out a new copy, etc. In short, there are unintuitive ways to accomplish these goals that lead to bloated effects lists and layers or that require extra time and care.
    HOW CAN TEXTURES BE IMPROVED?
    First of all, does it make any sense that textures are applied exclusively in white? Not really. In the real world, a texture can be defined not just by light but by shadow. And even shadows can have color. This means that, at minimum, it would make sense to allow for the application of a texture in black, and, at maximum, in any chosen color.
    Secondly, textures are relative. They represent change to an existing surface. Sometimes, it might make sense to highlight the texture itself; other times, the surface around the texture. This means that being able to quickly reverse the figure-ground relationship of a texture would be a very handy feature.
    With the above concerns in mind, I've devised three 'user interface' scenarios, presented here in order of most conservative to most extreme. The first scenario is the least powerful but still doubles the number of possible outcomes (compared to the existing interface). The second scenario may be the most logical of the bunch and represents a modest evolution of the existing interface, while increasing the number of potential outcomes even further. The third scenario allows for the application of any color to a texture but also represents the biggest change to the existing interface; that said, it's also quite compact.
    Scenario 1: Invert option
    The idea here is simply to add an Invert checkbox to the existing options. Checking this option would convert white to black, allowing for the application of dark textures to white or light-colored objects. In "Transparent" mode, this option would invert or reverse the figure-ground relationship of the existing texture.
    Scenario 2: Dropdown menu plus Reverse option
    Here, the Transparent checkbox is replaced by a dropdown menu that includes 3 mutually exclusive options: White, Black, or Transparent. Checking the "Reverse" option would invert the figure-ground relationship of the texture. This scenario allows for 6 possible outcomes in place of the existing 2, and is actually more logical than the first scenario, which conflates two options.
    Scenario 3: Color picker plus Reverse option
    Here, the Transparent checkbox is removed, and in its place, a color chip/palette is added to allow for the selection of any color to be applied to a texture. (Choosing Fill: None would create Transparency.) Again, a "Reverse" option would invert the figure-ground relationship of the texture. This scenario differs most from the existing interface but is quite compact and allows for the greatest number of outcomes.
    SO WHAT CAN YOU DO?
    I've submitted a feature request to Adobe's official site:
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
    When it comes to bugs and/or feature requests, every vote counts. If you care about this issue, I encourage you to submit your own feature request to the above URL, referencing this post if desired. Feel free to copy and paste the feature request below or write your own. (Be aware that there is a 2,000 character limit to the "issue description" of a bug report or feature request, and the following report is very close to that maximum.)
    FEATURE REQUEST
    Product name: Fireworks
    Product Version: 12.0.0.236
    Product language: English
    *******Enhancement / FMR*********
    Brief title for your desired feature: Enhanced texture controls, including the ability to apply textures in black and/or color (instead of white), and the ability to reverse or invert texture.
    How would you like the feature to work? Three possible implementations have been outlined in this forum posting:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1042206?tstart=0
    The basic scenarios are as follows:
    SCENARIO 1: An additional "Invert" option. Checking this option would convert white to black, allowing for the application of dark textures to white or light-colored objects. In "Transparent" mode, this option would invert or reverse the figure-ground relationship of the existing texture. This scenario would allow for 4 options in place of the existing 2.
    SCENARIO 2: Replace Transparent checkbox with a dropdown menu (White-Black-Transparent) and a "Reverse" checkbox. The dropdown menu offers 3 mutually exclusive options, while "Reverse" inverts the figure-ground relationship of the texture in each case. This scenario would allow for 6 options in place of the existing 2.
    SCENARIO 3: Replace Transparent checkbox with a color chip/palette and a "Reverse" checkbox. The color palette would allow for the application of a texture in any color, while choosing Fill: None would create Transparency. This scenario would allow for the greatest number of options.
    Why is this feature important to you? Textures are unique to Fireworks and potentially very useful, but their implementation is incomplete. The use of 'white only' means that textures cannot be applied to a white object. Inverting a texture or applying a texture in color requires advanced workarounds and can lead to bloat. The suggested options would make the feature exponentially more powerful and intuitive.

    Thanks, Jim! It is a very blog-like post. (I still haven't gotten around to starting a blog but keep thinking I should.)
    I figured the clearer and more thought-out the presentation, the greater the likelihood it might get implemented. Also, I was originally stuck on Scenario 1 as a solution, and writing this helped me see other options.

  • Feature request: Better handling of accents

    Hi everyone,
    Since the "Provide iTunes feedback" menu item in iTunes itself only allows you to request music from the iTMS, I'm going to post my feature request for iTunes here, and hope that Apple picks up on it.
    For most of the English-speaking world, accented characters (e.g.: é, à, â, ö, etc...) are never used, but for someone like me who speaks French or someone who has international music, it's an important part of using your computer.
    So, here are two suggestions on how iTunes could handle accented characters more gracefully:
    1. Don't be so aggressive in the auto-complete behaviour! iTunes will routinely disregard capitalisation and accents in order to "fuzzy-match" the auto-complete.
    For instance, suppose I have an artist in my library named "Stephanie McKay", and I want to add another artist named "Stéphane Pompougnac". Here is how the auto-complete would look at six different stages (iTunes' suggestions are in square brakets):
    1. St[ephanie McKay]
    2. Ste[phanie McKay] iTunes replaces the é I just typed with a normal, unaccented e
    3. Stephan[ie McKay]
    4. Stephane iTunes doesn't have any suggestions to make at this point
    5. Stephane Pompougnac I've typed in the complete name, and now I have to return to put the accent on the first e
    6. Stéphane Pompougnac
    In this case, the 'é' should've stuck as of step 2 and iTunes should've not had any suggestions to make since nothing else in my library starts with 'Sté'.
    2. As far as searches go, the same is partially true, but with one caveat. If I'm searching for "Stéph", I should only get one result back, "Stéphane Pompougnac".
    On the other hand, if I'm searching for "Steph", I think there's a possibility that I was too lazy to type the accent or I didn't know if/where there was an accent, and so I should get both results back: "Stéphane Pompougnac" and "Stephanie McKay".
    The same is true of other accented characters (é, à, ö, ô, and even ç). I don't know how languages other than French and Spanish deal with characters that look alike (e.g. ø and o) or that represent the same thing, but if there is a relationship, I suppose the same behaviour should apply there.
    Cheers,
    - tonyboy

    Hi Brad,
    Thanks a lot for pointing this out. We have verified this. We are looking into this issue and would try to incorporate the fix in future releases.

  • Feature Request:  Modify Audio Channels from the Timeline in Premiere CC.1

    Why have we never been able to modify audio channels once a clip is added to a sequence?  I'm guessing there's a good reason Adobe has never had this feature.  The lack of this feature is explicitly mentioned a few times in the audio section of the Premiere Pro CC manual, as if it's a benefit NOT to have it.  But the benefit is entirely lost on me. 
    In my workflow, I synchronize my double-system video and audio before anything else.  I do this in PluralEyes (and unfortunately I'll have to keep doing it this way, until PPr's sync on sound feature gets fixed—for me it's never worked).
    Once PluralEyes has synched hours of footage and audio and placed it on a PLURALEYES GENERATED sequence, I import that sequence into Premiere.  Note:  Since I haven't gone through the step of creating a blank New Sequence, I don't get the opportunity to setup my audio channels the way I'd like in my sequence (i.e. Stereo recordings should occupy ONE track, not two.  Typically these tracks come from a camcorder and are used for reference sound, or ambient noise at best, so I don't need them taking up precious real estate in my sequence). 
    Since PluralEyes doesn't merge my clips for me (or rather I don't want it to since I'm usually doing multi-cam sequences where I want to keep all 14, or so, tracks of audio), I have to go through the clips one by one and do a Merge Clip action once I've adjusted any minor sync issues, or determined which tracks I actually want to keep.  But, and here's the key, at this stage I'm not yet 100% certain whether I'll use the nat sound or the wireless mic sound (separate audio recorder, etc).  Furthermore, I don't really want to think about that at this point.  After I've spent a few mind-numbing hours just ingesting files, sync and merges, I want to jump into the edit as soon as possible, before I lose all will to finish this edit.  If I modify my audio channels right now, I'll lose the ability to make some creative decisions later on.
    I'd like to start whacking out an assembly edit.  And then after I have a rough program, I can start looking at which audio tracks (nat or double-system) I like better in each circumstance.  This is where I become stumped that at this stage, I'm locked into whatever audio channels I've setup (or not) in the earliest stage of the edit, back before any media was actually on the timeline!  It's at this stage, and usually only at this stage that I want to start Modifying Channels—FROM THE TIMELINE!
    Does anyone else feel the same?  If not, what is your workflow?
    Feature Summary:  Right-click on any clip, (master clip, sub-clip, merged, nested or otherwise) in the timeline and choose Modify > Audio Channels.
    I've submitted a feature request, with a link back to this discussion, so please pipe in—especially if you want this feature. 

    Maybe its your specific workflow, asset mangement  and use of a 3rd party application that  runs you into an issue.
    Take Pluraleyes out of the equation, I would imagine my workflow is the same as most everyone else.  Find footage in the Media Browser.  Import it.  Create a Sequence and start editing.  Use the Source Monitor to set Ins and Outs and then Insert the clip on the timeline. 
    At this point, if the audio needs to be modified, it cannot be done on the Timeline.  The workaround, of course, is to Find Clip in Project; Modify Audio in the Project panel; then do a Matchframe to replace the audio clip.  This works, but requires many steps per clip.  Also, Matchframe in Premiere Pro CC is not reliable. 
    Introducing a new Modify Audio (from Timeline) feature as seen in the fantasy screenshot above would solve it.
    I dont use Pluraleyse ...which I understand to be a synching aid...so I dont know the workflow it imposes on one .
    Returning to Pluraleyes workflow, this issue is compounded by the need to Modify almost ALL audio.  Every stereo track is separated and placed on two MONO tracks taking up precious real estate.  This is not something Pluraleyes imposes.  It is due to the way Premiere imports XML timelines.  This would apply to sequences imported from Final Cut as well.
    In this case it would be ideal to select both the LEFT and RIGHT mono tracks and choose "Modify > Audio Channels > Merge L/R Mono to a Single Stereo track."  Ideal?  No.  I guess Ideal would be if Premiere would interpret XML files properly in the first place.
    What actually is the issue with Premieres synch and merge workflow in your case?
    Audio Sync in Premiere Pro doesn't work.  Period.

  • Feature Requests beyond BlackBerry OS10.3.1

    So, with 10.3.0 and 10.3.1 now officially released on the Passport and Classic, let's look forward!
    What feature request(s) would you like to see included in future updates, say OS10.3.2 and beyond? Of course, there's nothing official to this thread, but one never knows who might view it and get an idea or two to move foward.
    Please post your feature request below, and let's make sure BlackBerry has a good reference point for user-input on what we'd like to see.
    Let's simple short statements AND please add the value of your request (i.e., why that feature request has value to you):
    Ability to lock the volume keys (since they are so easliy pressed when retrieving from holster)
    Implement a shutdown confirmation screen to the top edge power key before shutting down (many pocket carrying users complain of device shutdowns in their pocket).
    Allow BlackBerry Protect to automatically backup and restore personal data, such as contacts (I trust BlackBerry to protect our data and other third party apps can do this already).
     **This thread is not for bug reports (i.e., the calendar glitches when I set the date) or for debate or discussion of the worthiness of a feature request.
    So, what would YOU like to see beyond 10.3.1?
    1. If any post helps you please click the below the post(s) that helped you.
    2. Please resolve your thread by marking the post "Solution?" which solved it for you!

    Cool! I was waiting for this, there are a few things I would like to see.
    OS 
    - No frames option (for the people that want this), this means that you swipe up it will never go to a active frame
    - Keep swiping to close, when you keep swiping up it will close the app/frame (like on playbook I think it was)
    - Auto reboot, choose a day, time when your phone restarts (and unlocks after reboot) this is nice for people that want their phone to reboot when they sleep so they have a fresh start and don't have to reboot during work day 
    - Alternative keyboard, everyone knows the BlackBerry keyboard is awesome.. but allow developers to create own keyboards (native, no android port)
    - Themes, One reason why people jailbreak iPhone or use Android or loved BBOS. Themes that will totally transform your phone, keyboard, colours will be nice for people that want to customize their device
    - Font type change, this was possible in BBOS. Some people like to have a different font.
    - Completely light OS, this is something personal; some people like dark theme, some people like light.. but with the latest BlackBerry OS 10.3.1 it is still mixed up, some parts are light some parts are dark. When selecting light theme everything should be light, all core apps, buttons, everything, when you select dark everything will be dark, and then there will be a customize option where you can set it for each app (core apps and layout) how you want it
    - Show date, time, signal always on top-option, Remember.. screenshots on internet are shown a lot, when posting a screenshot of a BlackBerry 10 app nobody knows its BlackBerry, with BBOS you always had time, signal, on top people knew it was a BlackBerry and would be nice to get this back, plus no need for swiping up to see the time
    E-mail
    - Able to create filters, example move e-mails from this person to this folder, and give them this colour or move everything with this word in header or subject and delete it forward it and more.
    - "Out of Office", able to set out of office for work emails / accounts as automatic reply
    Hub
    - More colours, now there are only a few
    Keyboard
    - Emoij button on the keyboard (including special characters)
    LED
    - More led colours and settings
    Cloud, Sync and backup
    - Create backup from your device instead of BlackBerry link and backup them to any cloud storage (or blackberry cloud)
    - Sync bookmarks and settings with your BlackBerry ID
    - Sync remember with your BlackBerry ID
    - Sync Wi-Fi networks and passwords with your BlackBerry ID
    - BlackBerry Cloud storage (5 or 10GB free and pay for more?)
    Blend
    - Webblend access your phone from a secure BlackBerry website so you don't have to install any program on a computer you maybe will only use for one day.
    BBM
    - Multiply login, access BBM on more devices (including a web version) at the same time
    - PIN transfer, take your BlackBerry PIN to your new device. I really liked my old BB pin but when I sold the device I lost it, it would be nice to be able to "keep" my BBM pin or get a personal pin
    - Add user my phone number if linked, BBM Pin is awesome but allow users to also add people with phone number so you can give your phone number or pin If my contacts get BBM but forget to give their pin they will just show because I have their phone number

  • Feature Request: Several Key Items

    I am not really new to DPS. Have been publishing under contract for my client for the last 2 years now and it's been going great. However, there seems to be a few things we wish for that we can't seem to do. I figured this is probably the best place to request these features, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that somehow these make their way into an update or are considered maybe for other program features (you'll see what I mean later when I get into it).
    1) It would be nice if we could produce apps for android phones as well as tablets. I am more of an iOS guy but we do have a bunch of users who want to access these folios on their phablets and android phones but cannot get access to it. I don't know how complicated this process might be but it would be a great feature to add in any upcoming DPS releases.
    2) We are using DPS for publishing but we have been requested to use it in an "app style". The client wants this because they are comfortable with DPS and happy that their staff can use pretty much all the adobe suite programs. Maybe an ability to disable the browse toolbar (where the thumbails for articles show up and navigate). This way we can create a single page with MSOs and trick the user into thinking they're in an app instead of a digital magazine publishing platform app. This would work great for companies that want an app to accompany their magazine and display info about the company, how to reach them etc instead of having certain pages within the magazine.
    3) A muse widget. I would love if we could directly export muse files directly into DPS (say, as if we were importing an image). I know this may be much to ask since this isn't the Muse feature request board but it woudl be nice to be able to export it as a widget that will automatically package it into an element with all the required files to import into DPS.
    4) As muse and DPS are both great apps for designers who don't know how to code, maybe one or the other, or creating an app that is based off of the two could be an excellent choice for deisgners. There is a huge gap in the market for app builders. Muse is mainly a web builder and DPS is mainly for publishing. I think if Adobe could maybe mash the two into an app that helps users build basic apps. Imagine being able to make an app the same way you do in DPS? Having preset widgets such as capture image from camera, use geolocation, upload to server or whatever. I'm not too verse in this but it'd be nice if I could use an Adobe app to build an app that wasn't just a digital magazine. Maybe my lack of knowledge in this area is simplfying the whole process so forgive me if that's the case. From a business perspective it just seems that there is a huge gap for this, and maybe Adobe can conjure something up for the Adobe Faithful.
    5) Automatic web viewer. Would be nice if whatever displayed on my iPad can automatically shoot up into a web viewer linked to a business catalyst account or a specified server as an HTML5 file. Again, I haven't gone too much into the web viewer version so forgive me if this already exists, but I have looked through some documentation and not really found much on it.
    6) WIDGETS! More widgets like muse would be a life saver! Maybe something like a slideshow instead of just having the MSOs fade in and fade out, maybe allow a widget to do a slideshow that snaps into place everytime you swipe. It seems more natural since a lot of the apps function this way. Widgets also open up a lot of doors, maybe allowing users to create their own widget and housing a widget library on the adobe website?
    Just some thoughts, not sure which ones are really doable but I figured it's worth a shot requesting them.
    Thanks for your time!

  • Feature Request: Sort / Download

    I frequently use MBSA to identify and download hotfix MSU files for installation on offline systems.  However, there are two features which are lacking that would save a great deal of time.
    Add a sort to the result details.  This would make it much easier to download multiple KB's for the same security bulletin.  For example, MS13-081 occurs up to 9 times in a single scan for each individual KB and they are spread throughout the
    list.  If you're going down the list then you end up opening MS13-081 separately all 9 times.  If you could sort by the ID column then all of the same MS numbers would appear together and the page could be opened just once.  A heirarchical tree
    view could also work well with MS#/KB#
    Automatic download of the MSU files would be truly awesome.  Each link on the results menu requires navigating 4 to 5 different web pages plus the save dialog.  The MBSA tool would be far more useful if it were capable of automatically downloading
    the MSU and MSP files so that they could be burned to disc for use on offline systems.
    MBSA already works great but these two features could significantly enhance the useability of the product.

    I created a Smart Mailbox as follows:
    I named it Attachments.
    Contains messages which match ALL of the following conditions:
    Select Contains Attachments.
    If you want to include all sent messages that contain attachments, select Include messages from Sent.
    Not exactly what you are requesting but this Smart Mailbox has been helpful for me.

  • Feature Request: AME Watch Folders file type filter

    Hi,
    maybe I'm posting it to the wrong forum. If so, maybe some moderator can move this thread to the correct forum.
    I'm exporting Quicktime Reference files from Avid, which creates two files: .mov and. wav. Since I'm exporting it to Watch Folder AME automatically converts the wav also. But would be useful to "tell" AME only convert files with mov extension. It's of course possible later to erase encoded sound files but would be convinient to point out only the file types which require converting.
    thank you,

  • Thank you for my feature request. Now-

    Thanks adobe for making true my feature request in CS4. You added two buttons for "more especific" and "less especific" in the "add new css rule" dialog…
    Although, it doesn't go through ALL the posible combinations so I often don't find the class or ID I need and I end up typing it myself.
    So a graphic interface for selecting the objects I WANT to match would be cool. Even better if I can select the elements I DON'T WANT to match as well.
    A multiple element selection system should be enabled, and a new "select elements to match" button would enable the manual selection.
    The more-especific and less-especific buttons are mostly used to find a tag/class combination that matches one or several
    I wanted a more refined one, though, in which there are different drop down selects for each option, listing:
    e.g. for the following code, and having selected elements #page-2 and #page-8, A NEW DROP DOWN select would display a list of the combinations that would match BOTH elements, ordered not by specificy but by number of matches.

              <li class="linkone"><a id="page-7" >Link One</a></li>
              <li class="linktwo"><a id="page-8" >Link Two</a></li>
              <li class="linkthree"><a id="page-9" >Link Three</a></li>

              <li class="linkthree"><a id="page-12" >Link Three</a></li>

    </div>
    So, the drop down option would list all the possible rules to OVERRIDE existing rules that match the chosen elements, sorted by amount of nodes matched.
    For this example, the first compound rule you will see in the dropdown will be the one that matches ".left_column .linktwo". (Matches 2 elements)
    I know it sounds obvious, something you could do yourself. BUT when you have A LOT of code, someone else created, with no obvious class names, or not even intended to be grown up that much… you really need something that finds what the elements you selected have in common.
    After your selection, another selection could allow you to DISCARD elements from the choosing chriteria.
    Thanks Adobe!

  • Feature Request:  Auto-save in Background

    Here's a feature request I've submitted.  If you agree, please submit your request to:
    http://www.adobe.com/go/wish/
    *******Enhancement / FMR*********
    Brief title for your desired feature:
    Background Auto Save
    How would you like the feature to work?
    Auto-save would work just as it does today, except it would work as a background process, as it already does in Photoshop (without the Autosave popup getting in the way of the edit).
    Why is this feature important to you?
    The current autosave feature is terrifice and expected in any application today, but the current autosave popup dialog is useless.  It only has a "Cancel" button.  What's the point?  I can't imagine when I would ever want to cancel an auto-save.  And let's say I *did* want to cancel.  The dialog is only on screen for a second or so.  That's not enough time for user interaction, but it is just enough time for my work to be interupted, and for me to potentially hit the enter key as I go to Render something at precisely the same time.

    Hi cscouper2013,
    Thanks for taking the time to point out that my BSODs might be a problem with my RAM!  Yes, I'll test it with the program you mention.

    While I'm thinking of it, too.  Sometimes Premiere will do an auto save only moments after I've done a hard save.  That also seems like something to address in the next auto save feature update.  If I have my autosave increment set to 5 minutes, then it seems to me there's no need to do an autosave for another 5 minutes after my last manual save.
    I fully agree!  That's something I requested during the CS5 beta program.  I requested that every time a user does a manual save, the Autosave reset its counter.  So for example, if the delay is 10 minutes between auto saves, and the user does a manual save two minutes before the next scheduled autosave, the autosave counter resets to 10 more minutes.  But with the better solution of the current project constantly being saved after each edit, as Jim suggested, this feature wouldn't even be needed anymore.
    MonkeyEatsMonkey wrote:If Premiere could "borrow" that functionality, while still retaining a "save as" option for versioning, I feel like we'd have the best of both worlds.  It would even make dynamic linking more seamless, since changes wouldn't require saving. Any thoughts from the community on this?
    That would be a perfect solution IMO!  And yes, retaining the 'Save As' option would be very important!
    I also like the idea of automatic versioning/backups (could be renamed to 'versions' since with a constantly saved project file, automatic 'backups' would no longer be necessary.
    To resume, based on what has been discussed in this thread, I believe these would be the ideal saving options in Premiere:
    Autosaving of every edit in the background without slowing down editing performance (as suggested by Jim).
    Ability to create a user defined number of automatic backup versions, by setting maximum number of versions and time intervals (as is currently the case with Premiere).
    In other words, the current project file would constantly be updated as the user edits.  The automatic backups/versions would be created at user defined intervals.
    Users would retain the ability to create a copy of the current project at any moment through the 'Save As' and 'Save a Copy' commands that already exist in Premiere.
    Pop-up Auto-save dialogue boxes and the 'Save' command would be a thing of the past!
    IMO, this would truly give us the best of both words as MonkeyEastMonkey suggests: constant saving as per FCPX, with the comprehensive versioning options Premiere currently offers.
    Anything missing?

  • Feature Request: Apply effects to group of clip instances

    I have been trying to supply this feature request into the Adobe feedback form. But it appeared that it was too large to be posted in a single feedback form. So I had to split it into three distinct feedback forms.
    I don't want this feature request to get lost just because those three parts can't be joined back into a single feature request again. So I'd like to post it here, requesting for comments, too...
    This feature request is about applying effects to more than one clip:
    a)
    Currently, when selecting more than one clip, it's not possible to change any effects settings. The Effects Settings windows only shows a "Multiple clips selected" message.
    Thus, I'd like to suggest the following:
    When selecting more than one clip, the Effects Settings window should display any effects that apply to all the selected clips. Moreover, only those effect parameter values should be displayed having the same value across all selected effects. This on the other hand, of course, can only be displayed for effect parameters not having key frames/timing activated.
    Editing any of the displayed effects' parameters should apply the new value to each currently selected clip instance.
    b)
    Then again, when using key frame/timing activated effect parameters, it is currently not possible to apply such effect to more than a clip, too. To apply such animated effects to more than one clip it is currently necessary to nest those clips into a separate sequence.
    Thus, I'd like to suggest the following improvement:
    It should be possible to apply effects not only to clips but also to a group of clips (Menu Clip > Group).
    Activating animation/key framing to any of the effect settings of those effects being assigned to a clip group (in contrast to those effects assigned to any clip instance contained in the the group) will allow to add key frames spanning all clips of the group.
    This way it will be possible to easily create, e.g., a zoom effect spanning several clips.
    If there are clips in-between those belonging to the group, the group's effects won't be applied to those clips not belonging to the group. However, the effects' parameter values are continued to be calculated in the background.
    So this example would be true:
    - Available clips:
    | a | b | c | d | e |
    - Clips grouped into a Clip Group:
    | a |   | c |   | e |
    - Zoom video effect applied to the group, having two key frames added:
    Key frame #1 = beginning of clip | a |
    Key frame #2 = end of clip | e |
    Zoom value of key frame #1 = 100%
    Zoom value of key frame #2 = 400%
    --> So this will be the approximated calculated zoom value when the timeline reaches following points in time:
    Beginning of clip | a |:     100%
    End of clip       | a |:     132%
    Beginning of clip | b |: (100%)
    End of clip       | b |: (100%)
    Beginning of clip | c |:     174%
    End of clip       | c |:     230%
    Beginning of clip | d |: (100%)
    End of clip       | d |: (100%)
    Beginning of clip | e |:     303%
    End of clip       | e |:     400%
    (Unfortunately, this forum doesn't allow me to apply any kind of formatting to the example above. So I can't apply a monospace font or colouring )
    When a group gets ungrouped (Menu Clip > Ungroup), effects that had been applied to the group will be assigned to each individual clip of the group. For effect parameters that had key frames/animation activated, key frames will be created at the beginning and end of each of the clips. The previously calculated values will now be inserted at each automatically created key frame to mimic the grouped effect behaviour. This operation then would finalize the Ungroup operation involving clip group effects.
    Regards,
    Axel Dahmen

    You could combine the Next/Previous Edit commands with either the Apply Video Transition shortcut or with a paste command if you had copied the transition you want.
    OR... much easier if all you want is a bunch of consistent fade ins/fade outs...
    On a single clip, keyframe opacity to create a fade in from the in point of the clip at the duration you like, e.g. 30 frames. Right click Opacity, and select Save Preset; give it a name, e.g. Fade In 30 Frames and set it to Anchor to In Point. Reset the effect and delete the keyframes, and then repeat this to create a fade out. Go to the out point of the clip, set keyframes, and once again, right-click Opacity and Save Preset; this time call it something like Fade Out 30 Frames and set it to Anchor to Out Point.
    Now, you can simply select all of your clips in the sequence, and apply these presets by dragging them to the selection. Even though you created two presets, because you can only have one instance of Opacity on a clip, the keyframes from both presets will be added to that single effect. You have to do this with two presets--if you do it with one and use Scale, the keyframes will stretch out or compress to maintain a relative duration instead of an absolute duration.
