Using live text in a lightbox trigger

I am using live text in my lightbox trigger and in preview everything works great the first time around. However, after i've clicked on the lightbox trigger the first time, my text will no longer show up if I rollover the trigger again. I've tried the "hide all initially" option and that didn't work. Any suggestions??

By "opening it in Acrobat" I mean opren the Adobe Acrobat application and then open the PDF file in it (File -> Open -> select your PDF)
If you have the file open in Acrobat then follow the commands I offered in my first response to convert the PDF to a Word file.  YOu can then open the Word file in Word and do what you wish with the contents of it.

  • Live Text Template - Very slow to update

    Started using Live Text Templates which in theory seem really great but they are SOOOOO slow to update.
    So I create a simple 5 sec title with two text elements which simply fade in at the start and fade out at the end. The back ground is plain colored shape.
    I put this in to premiere, open it in the source panel and update my two text elements
    I put this title into an empty timeline - if I move the play head over the clips in the timeline it can take up to 60 seconds before the clip shows the correct text
    I then change the text in the master clip (title).
    Going back to the time line it takes about 1-2 minutes before I can view the changes in the timeline - either by just putting the playhead over the clip or actually playing the timeline. It will either show a black frame or the previous text.
    If the sequence contains other content then after changing text in the master clip the whole timeline will just show a black frame in the program panel for about 30-60 seconds then I can view this other content but have to wait a further 30-60 seconds before I see the updated title text.
    Its very slow and far from live. Anyone know if there is something I can change somewhere to speed this up? What is happening behind the scenes to allow Premiere to effectively render out this titles? If I actually render the title in the timeline it only take a few seconds so no reason it should take so long for Premiere to do it in the background.

    Good question that I ask myself also, but not just updating Titles. Same time lag for updating a Photoshop image that sits inside Premiere, or updating an After Effects composition inside Premiere.
    Sometimes I think I can 'trick it' into speeding up by 'saving' the Premiere project, but then most times I think I am tricking myself.

  • Live text template render issue when using Media Encoder?

    I'm running into flash frames with Media Encoder exports of Premiere sequences using the live text templates.
    Unfortunately, AME doesn't flag it as an error, so the render completes without any issues in the render log and the only way to find it is to watch the rendered file.
    I have tried different combinations of having After Effects open or closed, with the live text template comp open or closed; I can't consistently reproduce the problem with any certainty and so am having trouble pinpointing the source.
    My only hypotheses so far are that:
    The glitches seem to be happening in the dynamic link between AME and PP, not AE and PP. The live text will pop back to the duplicated comp's text for one frame. Video playing simultaneously doesn't pop.
    In other words, the AE text template said: "name here". In PP it was edited to say "John Doe", then that comp was duplicated and edited to say "Bob Smith". Everything looks fine in PP. There are no keys on the source text in AE (I have noticed that if there are keys on the source text in AE, the text will pop back to the original AE text at that key in PP).
    When rendered out of AME, halfway through Bob Smith's title, it will read "John Doe" for a single frame, then pop back to being Bob.
    I've only had this happen so far with AME renders. The renders out of PP haven't given me any issues so far.
    It might happen more frequently on longer segments? If a title is up for 45 sec instead of 10 sec, it may be more likely to pop.
    The issue seems to occur more often in batch renders out of AME (happened to 3 of 5 files rendered in a batch, AME 2014.1) and/or with unrelated AE comps open (on a single render from AME 2014.2)
    Again, it doesn't happen every time or to the same title, or in the same spot. Files are being rendered to ProRes 422 HQ. Unchecked "Use Previews" in AME.
    Would be nice to get to the bottom of what's happening so I can recommend something to the editors when I hand off these live text templates to them.
    I realize that the live text is a new feature as of 2014.1, but haven't found anyone else talking about this. Would love if this was a very simple fix that I'm missing.
    I was able to reproduce the error on 2 different machines, with similar specs:
    Premiere CC 2014.1 and 2014.2
    Media Encoder CC 2014.1 and 2014.2

  • Type in text on a page, use that text in an animation

    Hi
    I've been reading up and starting to play with Edge Animate CC, but I can't write any of the code myself. (I used to be a programmer so I can "read" it, but I haven't learnt any languages in years.) As well as my video job I am also the Director of a children's theatre company and I have an interesting idea which I hope Edge Animate can do...
    Our show is improvised from children's ideas, they help us write a book. We'd love to have an animation of a book on screen which has the title we've been given by the audience. We don't have time to add the title to an After Effects animation and render it out, but I did wonder if we could make the animation in Edge Animate and play it live in HTML5. Ideally we'd have a text box, our live tech would type the name into this, and then an animated webpage would appear which uses the text they've typed in.
    So how do we do this? Need to store input from a text field, hide the text field after (so our tech can turn on our live screen without showing it), then play an animation which includes the words stored from the input.
    I have no idea if this is possible or where to start! Does anyone know or want to experiment with the basics of it?
    Thanks
    Matt Andrews

    Yes, I believe you could do this. You can store the value of the input text and then load it where you want in the composition.
    Below is how an input field works:
    var message = sym.$("message");
    inputMessage = $('<textarea />').attr({'type':'textarea','rows':'10', 'cols': '25','value':'', 'id':'message'});
    inputMessage .css ('font-size', 14);
    inputMessage .css ('background-color', '#0a81fb');
    inputMessage .css ('box-shadow', '#0a81fb');
    inputMessage .css ('width', 350);
    //inputMessage .css ('height', 200);
    inputMessage .appendTo(message);
    Below is how you get the value:
    var messageInfo = inputMessage.attr("value");
    Then you could put it in another text field somewhere:
    sym.$('anotherText').html(messageInfo);
    Or something similar.

  • Auto populate text fields with a trigger such as entering text into input fields in ADF

    Hello all,
    I am not able to auto populate text fields with a trigger such as entering text into input fields in ADF.
    I tried AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(val); in the back end using setter method of input text field.
    its not working ..
    is there any way to achieve it
    Regards,
    Shakir

    Hi,
    Always mention your JDev version.
    The valueChangeListener would fire only when you set the autoSubmit property of the field to true. Can you elaborate your requirement? What do you mean by related data? Are you performing some sort of search?
    If you want to get the value you entered on the field, just set autoSubmit to true and get the new value from the valueChangeListener. If your requirement is something like as and when you type, do something, you need to check out this approach :https://blogs.oracle.com/groundside/entry/auto_reduce_search_sample

  • When using Live View, site looks great, browser testing goes crazy

    I am creating a new website (and I am really unexperienced with Dreamwaver CS5).  But when I check my site using "Live View" everything looks great, the way it is supposed to.  Then when I go to test it in my browswer (Primary browser is Chrome) it goes crazy:  I at first noticed that I had saved one copy as an .asp but then resaved it to .xhtml  I did delete the first line of code already that the .asp file created as it kept giving me an error on line 1.
    Then I tried to do a spry drop-down menu bar, which I have deleted since I thought I was doing something wrong with that and I should just stick to what I half-way know.
    If I were to preview the template page it gives me this error:
    This page contains the following errors:
    error on line 150 at column 76: error parsing attribute name
    Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.
    Here is line 150:
        if (a[i].indexOf("#")!=0){ d.MM_p[j]=new Image; d.MM_p[j++].src=a[i];}}
    If I were to test the index.xhtml page in the browser, it ignores most images (all but one), and the first nav-bar (an editable region) appears to the left instead of under the header.  The layout is totally ignored and everything is on the left-hand side of the screen instead of in a two column layout.
    I am not testing this on a server just off of my computer.
    I am assuming that the error has something to do with the .asp file I first did and when I resaved it, since I don't know what I would be looking for, is still in there screwing it up.
    Here is the code from the template page:

    1) Padding is only placed on the top and/or bottom of the divs. The elements within these divs have padding on their sides. This saves you from any "box model math". Keep in mind, if you add any side padding or border to the div itself, it will be added to the width you define to create the *total* width. You may also choose to remove the padding on the element in the div and place a second div within it with no width and the padding necessary for your design.
    2) No margin has been given to the columns since they are all floated. If you must add margin, avoid placing it on the side you're floating toward (for example: a right margin on a div set to float right). Many times, padding can be used instead. For divs where this rule must be broken, you should add a "display:inline" declaration to the div's rule to tame a bug where some versions of Internet Explorer double the margin.
    3) Since classes can be used multiple times in a document (and an element can also have multiple classes applied), the columns have been assigned class names instead of IDs. For example, two sidebar divs could be stacked if necessary. These can very easily be changed to IDs if that's your preference, as long as you'll only be using them once per document.
    4) If you prefer your nav on the left instead of the right, simply float these columns the opposite direction (all left instead of all right) and they'll render in reverse order. There's no need to move the divs around in the HTML source.

        <h1>Instructions</h1>
        <p>Be aware that the CSS for these layouts is heavily commented. If you do most of your work in Design view, have a peek at the code to get tips on working with the CSS for the fixed layouts. You can remove these comments before you launch your site. To learn more about the techniques used in these CSS Layouts, read this article at Adobe's Developer Center - <a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/adc_css_layouts">http://www.adobe.com/go/adc_css_layouts</a>.</p>
        <h2>Clearing Method</h2>
        <p>Because all the columns are floated, this layout uses a clear:both declaration in the .footer rule.  This clearing technique forces the .container to understand where the columns end in order to show any borders or background colors you place on the .container. If your design requires you to remove the .footer from the .container, you'll need to use a different clearing method. The most reliable will be to add a &lt;br class=&quot;clearfloat&quot; /&gt; or &lt;div  class=&quot;clearfloat&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt; after your final floated column (but before the .container closes). This will have the same clearing effect.</p>
        <h3>Logo Replacement</h3>
        <p>An image placeholder was used in this layout in the .header where you'll likely want to place  a logo. It is recommended that you remove the placeholder and replace it with your own linked logo. </p>
        <p><span style="font-size: 18px; color: #C00; font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">Logo Replacement</span></p>
        <p> Be aware that if you use the Property inspector to navigate to your logo image using the SRC field (instead of removing and replacing the placeholder), you should remove the inline background and display properties. These inline styles are only used to make the logo placeholder show up in browsers for demonstration purposes. </p>
        <p>To remove the inline styles, make sure your CSS Styles panel is set to Current. Select the image, and in the Properties pane of the CSS Styles panel, right click and delete the display and background properties. (Of course, you can always go directly into the code and delete the inline styles from the image or placeholder there.)</p>
        <h4>Backgrounds</h4>
        <p>By nature, the background color on any div will only show for the length of the content. This means if you're using a background color or border to create the look of a side column, it won't extend all the way to the footer but will stop when the content ends. If the .content div will always contain more content, you can place a border on the .content div to divide it from the column.</p>

  • How can I make Premiere Pro handle Live Text Templates faster?

    Currently I have a an After Effects Project that is setup as a Text Template.  When I render out the "template" composition in AFX, it takes 8 seconds.  The same composition through Live Text in Premiere Pro takes 34 minutes.  This comp is 6 seconds, and I can't for the life of me explain, or fix, the time difference...  After Effects multi-frame processing is turned off, so that shouldn't be the issue... I'm at a lost... I don't mind rendering my titles out in After Effects, but it is much more convenient in Premiere Pro as the text fields are all in the same place.
    My computer is a custom Windows 8.1 Pro running Premiere Pro and After Effects CC 2014.1 with 64GB of RAM, a NVIDIA GeForce 680 2GB, and an Intel i7-3960X 3.30GHz processor.  I've noticed that when PPro is attempting to render, its task in the task manager never goes about 5% and the AfterFX one it creates never goes above 10% CPU usage.  The two applications also don't use much RAM, though I don't suppose they should need a lot seeing how it is a 6 second comp... But none the less, I've allocated 58GB to the Adobe Suite through the AFX preferences dialog. 
    Any help would be greatly appreciated...

    when I click the record button, the screen goes to a blue screen with Playing on video hardware
    This is normal for HDV.
    How do I also get the Scene Detect to work?

  • Is there a way to convert outlined text back into live text?

    I have an Illustrator CS3 doc in which all text has been converted to outlines. (I wish I had an intelligent answer to the question of why I don't have the original doc with live text, but...) I remember seeing a post some time ago that explained how to change the outlines back into live text, which may have involved making a pdf or something, but I can't find that post anywhere in the Adobe forums. Does anyone know how to do this, if it can even be done? Thanks!

    I had to test it. Yes, you can use Acrobat Pro to OCR the text. First you'll need to rasterize the outlined text in AI (at 300dpi bitmap) and save as PDF. Then open in Acrobat and go to "Documents>OCR Text Recognition" to convert the image to text. Click "Edit" in the "Recognize Text dialog window and select "Formatted Text & Graphics" to view only the text in Acrobat. Save and re-open in AI. The text will be editable, but broken into individual words. You can cut multiple words to the clipboard then click with the text tool and paste, to merge the text into a contiguous sentence, but you'll lose the spaces. Exporting as text from Acrobat may be a better route.

  • How much data does iMessage use to text internationally?

    I have a friend in France n I live in Hawaii, and I'd like to know how much data it uses to text there cause I have a limited data plan and I don't want to go over >_<

    A single iMessage uses so little data you'd have to send about a thousand just to notice. Each character in an iMessage uses about 0.1 bytes and there are over a billion bytes in a gigabyte. Also it doesnt matter where you are sending it because it goes over the internet. It will be the same where ever.
    Hope this helped!

  • Can't use Live Paint

    I just downloaded the trial version of Illustrator CS4 for a Mac. For a class project. I am following my teachers steps to the letter, but i can't. I am suppose to choose a letter change it's size and angle then duplicaate it and resize and change the angle of the second one. Then select live paint and paint in the over lapped sections of letters. The problem is that when i select the two letters and go to live paint it won't let me choose "make" so i can't paint it. And i can't use the fill bucket it says "the selections contains objects that cannot be converted." Anyone know why it's doing this and just so you know i am a COMPLETE newbie at this it's my first time using this program.

    Sounds like you're trying to make a LivePaint Group out of live text objects. You can't do that. As the alert says, you have to use paths.
    You can convert the text objects to paths by selecting Type>Create Outlines.

  • Live text rendering is slow

    When I create a Live Text template and insert it into my Premier timeline the render time is very long.  For a :05 simple text reveal the render is over a few minutes.  If I don't use it as a template but just a dynamic link comp then the render is only 10-15 seconds.  I also find the render slows to a crawl at times but if I cycle to After Effects and back to Premier the render seems to get faster.  Not sure why.
    To avoid the rendering I tried to create a Title graphic to speed the process but it appears a mask or graduated background can't be incorporated into a background graphic inserted in Title.
    Is anyone else experiencing this?

    I find if it isn't open then the links are often lost.  I always have to open the AE project prior to loading the Premiere project.

  • Vertically center live text

    Since the anchor point of live text is normally at the baseline, vertically centering text using %age of comp doesn't work.
    It doesn't seem that dividing the text point size by 2 gives me a correct vertical offset either (which should work if my text size was the caps height, right?). So AE must be using the X-height as the font size?  So I have no idea what the X-height for some fonts are.
    Other than visually manually adjusting the anchor point or the baseline offset, is there any better/quicker/automated way of vertically centering text within a comp?

    Hey Navarro, I understand your pain
    I've used a workaround, not automated but it helped me anyway. You'll have to do this for every font you wanna use.
    1) Create a new comp, standard HD for exemple and write a text with your font in size 20.
    2) Now use the region of interest to match exactly the size of your text (well the height at least).
    3) In the comp menu, use the crop to region of interest button. Co to the comp setting and write down the height.
    4) Now redo the 3 first steps with size 60.
    5) then all you'll have to do is a little rules of 3 to automagically calculate the actual X-size depending on the size of your font, and write down an expression for this on your anchorPoint.
    A bit PITA, but it has worked great for me.
    Hope that helps.

  • How can I use ONE Text search iView to event/affect mutliple Result Sets?

    hello everyone,
    i have a special situation in which i have 6 flat tables in my repository which all have a common field called Location ID (which is a lookup flat to the Locations table).
    i am trying to build a page with a free-form text search iView on Table #1 (search field = Location ID).  when I execute the search, the result set for Table #1 is properly updated, but how do I also get Result Set iViews for Tables #2-6 to also react to the event from Text Search for Table #1 so that they are updated?
    i don't want to have to build 6 different text search iViews (one for each table).  i just want to use ONE text search iView for all the different result set tables.  but, in the documentation and iView properties, the text search iView doesn't have any eventing.
    if you have any suggestions, please help.
    many thanks in advance,
    mm

    hello Donna,
    that should not be a problem, since you are detailw with result sets and detail iviews because custom eventing can be defined for those iviews.
    Yes, it says "no records" found because an active search and record selection havent' been performed for it (only your main table does).
    So, yes, define a custom event, and pass the appropriate parameters and you should be fine.
    Creating a custom event between a Result Set iView and an Item Details iView is easy and works. I have done it.
    See page 35 of the Portal Content Development Guide for a step-by-step example, which is what I used.
    For my particular situation, the problem I'm having is that I want the Search Text iView's event (i.e., when the Submit button is pressed) to be published to multiple iViews, all with different tables.  Those tables all share some common fields, which is what the Search iView has, so I'd like to pass the search critera to all of the iViews.

  • Photoshop CC 2014 Crashes Randomly when using the Text Tool...

    Since the most recent Photoshop update, CC 2014 has been extremely buggy and completely unstable on my Mac Pro, which is inexcusable from a paid service .  The most common crash for me occurs when I try to use the “text tool” or attempt to edit text (usually the color).  I am occasionally prompted with a window stating, “Could not complete your request because of a program error” and then Photoshop crashes seconds after.
    After the initial crash and Apple’s various prompts I usually go through 2-3 consecutive cycles of Photoshop attempting to open back up and crashing over and over again.
    I’ve attempted signing out and back in to my Creative Cloud as suggested in several threads, but that was unsuccessful in mitigating the crashing.  Is there a fix for this, other than uninstalling and reinstalling?  My studio has too many upcoming deliverables and deadlines to do a fresh install, so suggestions/solutions would be appreciated .

  • HELP: Failure flashing BIOS using Live Update 5

    Hi,
    I used Live Update 5 to download the latest BIOS version for my MB. Then when I was running the update, I chose "". (I know it's incorrect and I should have chosen the other one.) After the update, the machine restarted and showed a cursor blinking on the top left on a black screen, and it wouldn't proceed any more. I can enter the BIOS without a problem. I can also boot from CD or USB, but the windows on my machine simply wouldn't boot.
    After the problem arose, I have tried flashing the BIOS with the MSI Forum HQ USB Flashing tool on this forum. It tells me that  but the same problem remains.
    What should I do now?
    Thanks for your time and consideration!

    After any flash, the battery should be removed for awhile and the CMOS cleared. Reset all your BIOS menu settings again making sure the boot order etc. is correct and the proper mode is selected that your OS was installed under, i.e. IDE or AHCI mode.
