Viewing EXIF data in full screen edit mode

is it possible to view the EXIF data when in full screen mode?
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

I think the full screen mode is the problem. You can't even drag an image from there to an application in the dock to view extended EXIF information like I outline next.
To view more EXIF info than iPhoto will show for an image, download Simple EXIF Viewer for Mac OS X. Put it in your applications folder and then open the app. When the app is in the dock, click and hold on it and scroll to "keep in dock".
You can now drag an image from the iPhoto Library viewing window on top of the EXIF viewer. The viewer window will open and give you the EXIF info for the image.

Edit keywords whilst in full screen edit mode

Hi all
I want to edit the keywords assigned to an image in full screen edit mode.
I have searched about a bit and have found links to Keyword Assistant which is all well and nice. It's not particularly quick to asign keywords though - my touch typing isn't all that hot. And it has a few 'quirks' which make it a little cumbersome to use.
Ideally I'd love to see a palette with keywords that can be toggled on or off for each image - brought up much like the adjust and effects palettes. I have over 15k images in this library and I'm intending to go through them all adjusting the keywords. Is there anything out there that will do something like this, within iPhoto full-screen?
Thanks

Retouch brush in Full Screen Editing Mode

Has anyone else noticed that the retouching brush is way too big when you're editing in full-screen mode? Is this a bug? Is there anyway to adjust the diameter of the brush?
Thanks,
Matt

Well, at least I'm not alone. I didn't notice a place to file a bug about this.
Thanks,
Matt
Yeah...I have the same issue. Posted on the other
forum about this. This size of the pixel is about 25
across and when you use the tool, it obliterates the
face or whatever you're trying to retouch. When you
revert to the regular screen it doesn't fix the
problem either.
I did notice that when I first used the tool in the
regular, non-full screen mode, it was fine. Once I
switched to the full screen editing mode, the problem
started and now it won't go away.

How come full screen exclusive mode is so slow?

Hi. I am currently working on customer facing point-of-sale application. This application has a lot of animation going on and so needs quite speedy graphics performance. When I first investigated this it looked like I could do it in pure Java 2D which would be a lot easier than resorting to DirectX or OpenGL and mixing languages.
Unfortunately as the app has moved closer to functional complete the graphics performance appears to have deteriorated to the point where it is unusable. So I have gone back to the beginning and written a test program to identify the problem .
The tests I have done indicate that full screen exclusive mode runs about ten times slower than windowed mode. Which is mind boggling. Normally - say in DirectX - you would expect a full screen exclusive version of a games/graphics app to run a little bit quicker than a windowed version since it doesn't have to mess around with clip regions and moving vram pointers.
My test program creates a 32 bit image and blits it to the screen a variable number of times in both windowed and full screen mode. Edited results look like this:
iter wndw fscrn performance
 10 16.0 298.0 1862% slower
 20 47.0 610.0 1297% slower
 30 94.0 923.0 981% slower
 40 141.0 1205.0 854% slower
 50 157.0 1486.0 946% slower
 60 204.0 1877.0 920% slower
 70 234.0 2127.0 908% slower
 80 266.0 2425.0 911% slower
 90 297.0 2722.0 916% slower
 100 344.0 3253.0 945% slower
The results are substantially the same with the openGL hint turned on (although I don't have that option on the release hardware). I am assuming that the images end up as managed since they are created through BufferedImage and the system is running under 1.5.
Is there a way to get the full screen version running as fast as the windowed version?
Here's the test prog:

 "\t" + fullscreenTest[f] +
 "\t" + (int) ( (fullscreenTest[f]/windowedTest[f])*100.0) + "% slower");
}

Well I could do...
The problem is that I am compositing multiple layers of alpha transparent images. If I just render straight to the screen I get nasty flicker where I see glimpses of the background before the top layer(s) get rendered. So I would have to render to an offscreen buffer and then blit the assembled image into the screen. Even then there will be some tearing as you can never sync to the screen refresh in windowed mode.
And the thing is - there ought to be a 'proper' solution, g*dd*mm*t. Surely the core team didn't put together a solution that is ten times slower than it should be and then say 'What the heck, we'll release it anyway'.
I mean, if you can't believe in Sun engineering what can you believe in?

JInternalFrame Full Screen Exclusive mode lag Windows 7?

Hi everyone I'm not sure if i'm posting this question in the right category so feel free to move it. I recently have been playing around with full screen exclusive mode and JInternalFrames. Now what iv'e noticed is on every platform i've tried it works fine. When clicking and dragging the JInternalFrame to a new location it is quick and responsive. However when doing this same operation in Windows 7 the JInternalFrame lags significantly behind the mouse location as i'm dragging the internal frame. I haven't had a chance to test this on any other Windows platforms such as Vista or XP but I don't think it happens on those platforms, at least I don't remember this ever happening when I had Windows Vista and it doesn't occur in Mac OS 10.6.
The following are the circumstances i've found that produce this problem:
*1. The program is set to Full Screen Exclusive mode.*
*2. You are using Windows 7 (possibly other Windows platforms)*
*3. Click and drag a JInternalFrame to a new location.*
I've tried several things to see if it fixes the problem such as setting the look and feel to cross platform but nothing helps. In fact when the LAF is set to cross platform it is even worse.
Now i'm new to Full Screen Exclusive mode so i'm guessing (hoping) this is a problem caused by an error on my part. Here is the source code, i'd appreciate it if you give it a try. My question is how do I fix this lag so that the JInternalFrame is quick and responsive to the user dragging the window and i'm also wondering if this only happens on Windows 7 so if anyone could also tell me if they experience the problem I am describing and the OS you are using that would be great. Thank you guys :)
Also any input about wether i'm setting up full screen exclusive mode correctly would be much appreciated too.

I don't see the lag you describe. There's some flicker when moving the internal frame around rapidly (it looks as if the borders follow the content a split second later, but can't be caught in a screen capture) but that's no different when I show the internal frame in a normal (not full screen) window.

dbThanks for your reply and thanks for testing out my code. Could this lag be something wrong with my VM on Windows 7, cause the lag is extremely bad as in it takes a couple seconds for the internal frame to catch up with the mouse. I also just noticed that any other components in full screen exclusive mode on Windows 7 lag as well. Such as scrolling though a large amount of text, the scroll bar will lag far behind the mouse location and take a couple of seconds to catch up even when the mouse is moving fairly slow. I was hoping it was something in the code I was doing wrong but I guess not? Any suggestions on how I could fix this problem? It really makes my applications appear sluggish. For example when you click on a normal window such as in Windows Explorer and drag it to a new location the mouse stays in a fixed position on the window while you are dragging it. However with this lag the mouse appears to be "detatched" from the window and does not stay in the same location on the window while dragging. Does anyone else experience this or is this normal? I'm using Windows 7 64bit but I don't think that would make any difference. I'd also like to point out that I'm using Java 6 update 21 I don't know if that would make a difference opposed to update 17.
Thanks again.

Chrome, Mountain Lion and Full Screen Interactive Mode

I'm running into an issue when entering Full Screen (Interactive) Mode-- long story short, the Message and "Allow" button are over-magnified and don't appear on the screen for me to click, thereby making it impossible to use other keystrokes (and see certain things in the interactive game window t'boot).
This issue does not exist in Snow Leapord on an older machine, though the same updated versions of Chrome (and assumedly Flash Player) are at work there.
Any suggestions on something I can tweak-- or even a work-around/hotkey for Allowing FSI Mode?
The actual game screen itself is fine, albeit slightly cut off around the edges.

Man, do you have Sophos antivirus? If that so, you need to uninstall it the right way:
For Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac OS X version 7.x , go to Macintosh HD|Library|Sophos Anti-Virus.
Select 'Remove Sophos Anti-Virus.pkg'.
Follow the instructions on the screen.
NOTE, if you are running Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac OS X version 4.x, the path in step 1 is Macintosh HD|Library|Application Support|Sophos Anti-Virus.
It seems that Sophos antivirus is crashing ML. They have an update but I'll wait some time becuase I've really had a painful time these days.

IPhoto Freeze on full screen Editing - Lost threads ???

Hi all,
as I'm one of those experiencing multiple problems with iPhoto 9 and Snow Leopard, with freezing the complete OS in full screen editing and displaying repeatedly scrambled or corrupt images, I wanted to subscribe to one of the many multipage threads here but they all seem to be gone !!!
Did I miss something? Has the problem been fixed meanwhile?
If there is a fix, please someone share the secret, iPhoto is driving me crazy...
Thanks!

Sorry, it did not change anything!
It took me quite a while to find the time and the courage to rebuild a completely new iPhoto Library from scratch... but I did it... with more than 5000 pix in it, of course beautifully sorted and most even modified! Altough the problem still remains, at least I did cleanup the base properly.
Now I'm gonna try to migrate to iPhoto '11... fingers crossed!

Using swing in Full screen sxclusive mode

Hi!
I have created a game which uses swing components.... I have decieded (because it is much cool, and looks nicer) to convert the game to Full screen mode....
Mycurrent GUI consists of two JPanel s. One of which I use the paintComponent method to draw the game board to the JPanel. The other JPanel is split into several other parts which contain the details about each player.
Now, what I want to do is to be able to update the graphics using a BufferStrategy. My question is how would I do this? I tried to create a eperate BufferStrategy for the "Board" JPanel, but I can't as JPanel doesn't support getBufferStrategy(). Then I tried to convert the whole "Board" into Canvas. This I could implemnt but as I rendered the image it was drawn over the second JPanel which is to the right of the "Board"
I was thinking that maybe I could create a FlipBufferStrategy but it's protected and cannot be instantiated in a JPanel.
So what I'm basically asking is how do you use swing components in Full Screen Exclusive mode and using active rendering?
For dukes go to http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=57&thread=394856&tstart=15&trange=15

Hi,
in case you don't already know it, here's Suns very own tutorial on that topic:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/extra/fullscreen/index.html
JPanel does not support getBufferStrategy() but JFrame (or any other subclass of Window) does. So you could put your JPanel into a JFrame and gain access to the BufferStrategy that way.
Keep in mind that there is still a serious bug in createBufferStrategy() that can result in a deadlock. Browse the Bug Database for a workaround, I can't find it now, but I know that it is there.
Last but not least you could post in the Swing Forum, which would be a more suitable place for a Swing question than the Java3D Forum :)

I've imported an iPhoto library from a disc to my iPhoto 09 account, but I have to leave the disc in to view the pictures in full screen... Is there a way to import the files to my hard drive?

I've imported an iPhoto library from a disc to my iPhoto 09 account,
What exactly did you do?
Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

When viewing a photo in full screen, how do I get the file information and data along the footer. How do i get that to go off? Preferences.....???

Love full screen view, but my file information and data are showing along the footer. How do I change me settings so this doesn't show?
Thanks!!!!

Cursor Disappears After I Return From VIewing Web Video In Full Screen Mode

After I view a video from a web site in full screen mode using Safari v6.0.1 or Firefox v15.0.1, I escape to normal screen mode. When I then try to move the cursor using the built-in trackpad, I am unable to see the cursor anywhere on the screen. I do, however, see some artifacts of the cursor's movement in the text contained in the window and in the text of the menu bar as the cursor passes them.
What can I do to eliminate this "inconvenience"?

Fixed

Please Help, Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3, Top tool bar disappears-File, Edit, View, ETC missing at full screen. How do I get it back?

When i have the window at full screen, my top portion of the tool bar dissapears. I have checked all settings but unable to get it back. What do I do? Thanks

The menu bar is hidden in fullscreen mode, as is the Dock (I assume that's what you mean by "the bottom toolbar"). That is normal, and that is how it has always worked for as long as fullscreen mode has existed (which isn't very long yet). If you want those things to remain visible, you have to exit fullscreen mode. Put your mouse at the top of the screen, so the menu bar appears, and then click the blue rectangle with arrows at the far right side of the menu bar.

Safari unable to view menu bar in full screen mode

Been using Lion for a while now and everything seems fine, except for some reason when Safar is in full screen mode and I move the mouse up to the toolbar, the file menu and shortcuts bar doesn't appear now. It worked yesterday... now it won't. I quit safari completely, opened it back up and it still wont. Next will be a reboot...

Thanks, I rebooted and it came good, but if it happens again i'll try that

Can't view YouTube videos in full screen mode

This is a strange one. This problem is only happening on my son's account on his Mac Mini. We have several user accounts on that machine. On my account, I can watch a video on YouTube and click on the "full screen" icon to watch it full screen, but on his account clicking on the full-screen icon does nothting. I did a system update and found a new version of Safari and installed it. Still no fix (for him). Installed the latest flash plug-in for Safari, but the problem still persists. I assume it has something to do with some personal settings? I looked in the ~/Library/Safari folder, but not sure what to blow away.
Any help would be appreciated.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

found the likely issue! are you participating in youtube's html5 trial? go here and it will tell you if you are:
