Volume indicator has slits in top and bottom

The indicator box for volume, brightness, etc. has weird slits in the top and bottom (see photo below), and has been annoying me for some time now. I am running the latest version of Yosemite. Anybody know how to fix this?

Try unchecking (or checking) reduce transparency and see what happens in the accessibility pane..

Widescreen has black bars top and bottom

Imported a widescreen DV file into FCP5, rendered it, looks widescreen in the canvas but has black bars which are always exported. But I want to end up with a DVD that is full screen/widescreen when viewed on a widescreen TV or LCD monitor. How to get that and get rid of black bars?

In the menu bar: go to Final Cut Pro > Easy Setup. Choose DV-NTSC Anamorphic. Click OK.
Go to Sequence > Settings > Load Sequence Preset and click OK.
Right click your clip in the Browser and choose Item Properties > Format. Click next to Anamorphic in the clip column to place a checkmark. Click OK.

Widescreen analogue video converted A-D has bars top and bottom?

I have converted a 16:9 video on VHS tape to PAL DV using a Canopus converter.
This creates a widescreen image with black bars top and bottom in the PAL 4:3 frame and when played on a widescreen TV the 16:9 image occupies the central portion of the screen with black bars all round. (It looks OK on a 4:3 CRT as it fills the width of the screen with just bars above and below.)
Ideally I would like the image to fill the 16:9 TV screen. Using the zoom control on the TV is not an answer as it zooms too much and I lose parts of the picture and get unnecessary degradation.
Is there a reasonably simple solution using FCP 7 or its companion apps?
I also have FCP X . . . . though I don't know whether that helps!

The Canopus shouldn't be converting to letterbox 4:3 on it's own. If the video was 16:9 going in, why wouldn't it be 16:9 going out? A 4:3 aspect program will naturally have a pillarbox on a 16:9 monitor. Even if it has letterbox bars to begin with.
And if you take it into FCP, what aspect appears there?

WP 8.1 App Grid has padding on the top and bottom...

I have a Grid as shown below. When I have height/width set to auto on the row and column definitions. As expected the buttons in each column are flush against each. The height always has a padding at the top and bottom of the grid
cell.
Why would it have padding a the top and bottom and how do I remove it since there is no padding attack property?
Thanks,
Michael
Example below:
<Grid x:Name="ContentRoot"
Grid.Row="1"
Margin="19,9.833,53,0" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Top">
<Grid.RowDefinitions>
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
<RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
</Grid.RowDefinitions>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Button Content="1" />
<Button Grid.Column="1" Content="2" />
<Button Grid.Column="2" Content="3" />
<Button Grid.Row="1" Content="4" />
<Button Grid.Row="2"
Grid.Column="1"
Content="5" />
<Button Grid.Row="3"
Grid.Column="2"
Content="6" />
</Grid>

The margin in the grid is causing the gap. I would remove it
<Grid x:Name="ContentRoot"
Grid.Row="1"
Margin="19,9.833,53,0" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Top">

Set top and bottom inset spacing values in Text Frame Options via jsx script

I am looking for a way to set the top and bottom inset spacing values only to 2 points in Text Frame Options via a .jsx scrpt.
For years, I have used a script that sets Preferences, such as:
with(app.storyPreferences){
    opticalMarginAlignment = false;
    opticalMarginSize = 12;                // pts
I would like to add the code to this same script that would make Top = 0p2 and Bottom 0p2 but leave Left and Right as 0p0.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here is the full .jsx file that we now use to set preferences.
Ideally, this could be modified to include setting any text frame created to have 0p2 inset Top and Bottom, but 0p0 Left and Right:

How can I print the top and bottom halves of 11x17 PDF on 8.5x11?

I have a multi-page 11x17 PDF of quiz cards designed to be printed double-sided so that a question appears on one side and the answer on the other side. (Page 1 has the questions; page 2 has the answers.) My printer is 8.5x11 so I would like to print the top half of 11x17 page 1 onto 8.5x11 page 1 and the bottom half of 11x17 page 1 onto 8.5x11 page 2. Then I will flip the 8.5x11 pages over and repeat the process, this time printing 11x17 page 2.
Is there a way to print the top and bottom halves of an 11x17 PDF onto two 8.5x11 pages?
Thanks!

The easiest solution I know of requires you to have a copy of Adobe InDesign. You can easily layout PDFs within InDesign in the configuration you want and create a new PDF.
I don't know any way to print it directly in that layout, unfortunately.

IMovie is outputting my movie with big black bars at top and bottom that I don't want

Quicktime: Ver 10.3
iMovie: Ver 10.0.5
OS: OS X Ver 10.9.4
So, let me try and explain...
I have recorded gameplay footage of my game directly from my Mac screen using Quicktime's Record Screen option. I've tried recording both in fullscreen mode (with my game also running in fullscreen mode) and a section of the screen by dragging the mouse to select a 640X960 box (with my game running in windowed mode which is displayed at 640x960 resolution).
This initial recording direct from the screen displays fine, both when I view it in windowed mode and when I view it fullscreen, with the height of the game stretching to the full height of the video area but obviously with big black borders to either side in fullscreen mode (as it's basically iPhone ratio in portrait mode).
WindowedFullscreen
This ^^^ is how they should look.
The problem is when I try to import the movie into iMovie, mess around with some fade-ins and music and stuff and then output the edited movie via iMovie...
When I then try to view this outputted movie in windowed mode on certain sites (Kickstarter) my game footage doesn't take up the full height of the video and instead floats in the middle with big black bars at the top and bottom, which I don't want. It's fine when I go fullscreen but the problem is that when I load this video into Kickstarter it shows the non-fullscreen view of the video with this big black border and it looks really amateur.
This is what Kickstarter shows in windowed mode i.e. the way you see Kickstarter videos by default when you press Play; unless I go fullscreen and then it takes up the full heigh of the view.
Note: Windowed mode actually looks fine when viewed directly on my Mac but I know it's not Kickstarter that is causing the issue because I can see in the thumbnail preview on my Mac that the video is somehow encoded with the big black bars at the top and bottom. Also, I uploaded the unedited videos to Kickstarter just to check and they display fine. So it's definitely iMovie that is adding these annoying black borders at the top and bottom for whatever reason (and I'm not intentionally scaling the video down in iMove or anything like that as far as I know). I also can't use the unedited footage however because it has no sound and no transitions etc.
Does anyone know what night be causing this and how to get rid of it.

You are lucky to see anything - iMovie 5 is not really compatible with Snow Leopard, which only supports iMovie 6 and above.
Snow Leopard only runs on Intel Macs. iMovie 5 was never written, AFAIK, for Intel, just for the PPC Macs they had in those old days!

FCP/Compressor keep exporting horizontal green lines near the top and bottom mattes. What do I do?

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to export a:
1920x1080
29.97
Interlaced
ProRes 422 HQ
to:
DVD Best Quality (90 minutes) in Compressor
Quality all the way high
Mpeg-2
in Final Cut Pro and/or Compressor (both so far export with the green lines) and so far it has been to no avail. They show up right on the edge near the mattes. Most forums talk about a vertical green line but I am having problems with horizontal lines near the top and bottom.
Any ideas? Thanks.

If you are sending your file via share to Compressor I would try this instead:
Export a QT reference(not self-contained or using QT conversion) file of your sequence to your desktop.
Then:
Turn on frame controls in the MPG-2 setting and set all to best. Changing all settings to best will increase your render time greatly. You may want to do a :30 or 1min test.
In my experience Compressor can be inconsistent with HD to SD DVD MPG-2 conversion. Sometimes it works wonderfully and others times it does not.
I have had success with having FC do the SD conversion first.
Create a new 16x9 SD sequence
Add HD seq to SD and render
Export SD and then compress for DVD.

1280x720 video on screen getting squished on top and bottom

Premiere CS4. I exported a 1280x720 video to play on a LCD TV with the following settings
in the attached. The TV is set to play 16:9. I have it set to square pixels since the zip file with the video is playing the video file, not a dvd player.
But...there is black on the top and bottom of the video. What could be causing this? Is it my export settings? Maybe it can't be a wmv?? I'm confused?

No answer here; just curiosity.
The "zip file" you describe: How are you getting the video to the TV?
Our one and only "HD" TV so far is a relatively small, cheap one. It has lots of settings for how to deal with various formats, and sometimes (TV signals or commercial DVDs) I cannot find a completely correct option. I suspect that its native display resolution is odd. Harm, is it possible that native resolution of a display can be an issue?
So I'd test your output on a "better" TV.

How do I reverse the full screen view to get my top and bottom menu listings?

I clicked that button to view full screen hoping it meant to get rid of all the stuff that was on the screen, but instead it removed the top and bottom bars that have my buttons I need. ie the bottom has the toolbar and I like the top menu bar back. How to do I get it back?

Hi abcdef123,
Try hitting F11 or moving your cursor to the upper right hand corner of the scree to expose the page controls, then clicking on ''restore''.
Hopefully this helps!

ITouch song sorting, scrolling-sidebar doesn't scroll past A; doesn't skip past top and bottom?

Gahh you know how on an iTouch / iPhone, if the songs are sorted alphabetically, you can touch the letter on the right side to skip to that letter in your song library? Here's a picture of my screen (same image as below): http://i45.tinypic.com/2ztlkrl.png
SO here's what's wrong with this:
-the songs start at letter A, but the silver bar that usually should say A on it, says Z instead
-when i click on the right sidebar for other letters, it stays on THIS EXACT SCREEN and doesn't skip to any other letters
-HOWEVER it does scroll/skip to the bottom...so I can basically only get to the top and bottom of my songs
(I already checked that my iTunes is sorted alphabetically and correctly, tried restarting it, restarted the program, resynced, but none of this works)...
Please help me!! Has this happened to your iPod Touch/ iPhone before?? Thanks!
(notice the Z in place of where the A should be..)

The first thing you've got to check is your video drivers.

Using PNG format with max width without clipping top and bottom of image?

I am using PNG format to preserve the transparency and drop shadow I am trying to incorporate to give the illusion that this slab object is floating above the other layers. I first tried file>place to position the menu object on edge of header/beginning of content. Doing that leaves no options to force the image to span the width of whatever screen. I need that so I've tried using object>fill> and then clicking the max width of the rectangle (which does solve the max width problem), but I am now dealing with a clipping problem of the top and bottom of the image. The next thing I can think of is to go back to Photoshop and distort the image so it isn't as tall. I feel there has to be a simpler way to accomplish this that won't also give my image a unnatural look. Thoughts? Thanks in advance.

Thanks, that helps. I also found that I cropped to much of the canvas. After increasing the canvas area AND setting to fill all is well now. I think your suggestion may help with the scrolling affect problem I'm having when using different resolutions. I am going to try to set the size in one dimension (height) so that different resolution screens see the same scroll actions. Thanks Mylenium!

Why when almost completed editing a video on imovie have half the clips developed narrow screen aspect exhibiting grey band top and bottom of each clip?

Why when almost completed editing a video on imovie, have almost half the clips developed narrow aspect - the rest is still widescreen? The faulty clips have developed grey bands top and bottom.

Tried to duplicate the situation.
Most probably I got it wrong but when adding in
• a photo in 16x9 then I get a black letterbox-ing
• an 16x9 video taken from a small compact digital Camera and in wrong frames per seconds (30fps) in a PAL (25fps) project - I get this gray banding too. Strange
May be it has to do with matching different fps in same project - never liked to do that as quality usually suffers and it goes jumpy.
I use JES_Deinterlacer to get all my material into the same standard first - not letting iMovie or iDVD do that conversion as that gives ME BAD RESULT.
Someone with clear knowledge on this - Please feel free to fill in and correct.

Small black bars on the top and bottom on video after exporting?

I'm using 1280x720 video footage in Adobe Premiere. The problem is, whenever I export my finished project as 1280x720, the newly rendered file has small black bars on the top and bottom.
These black bars are not there in the Premiere preview, only after the project is rendered.
The video file created after export is still 1280x720(16:9).
Is there any way to get rid of these black bars, as they are quite irritating because I make youtube videos regularly.

FAQ: How do I get rid of black bars around my movie?

Is there any way I can get the pictures on my iPhone 5c to be the whole screen instead of with a black band across the top and bottom?

My new phone only let's me take pictures with a black band across the top and bottom instead of the whole screen, does anyone know how to change this?

Your wifi-only iPad does not have GPS. Read the specs for your device.
