Is there a shortcut for fading audio to zero and back up between two clips?

I'm trying to determine if there is a shortcut for this situation in FCP 5...
You have two audio clips butted adjacent to each other.
You want the first clip to fade down to zero (i.e. silence).
You want the second clip to fade up from zero.
So basically you have a split second of silence between the two clips.
The video equivalent would be touching black for a second between the
two clips. You can use the "Fade In Fade Out Dissolve" to do it fast.
I realize you can accomplish this audio manuvers with 4 keyframes and the pen tool. I know you can also put an audio transisions on the end of each clip. There are a bunch of ways of getting there, but is there a really
fast way like the "Fade In Fade Out Video dissolve" or a keyboard shortcut?
Thanks for any feedback.

When I need to do somethig like that I make sure there at least a 1 frame gap between the two and ad audio transitions on the end of clip 1 and the beginning of clip 2.
If someone has a faster way, i'd love to know it.

When I export in FCPX to dvd some clips are blacked out but the audio is ok. What can I do.

When I export my project to DVD the results are great except some scenes, especially around transitions are coming in with no picture, only black like a fade, but it has sound. What can I do? I

Inserting video between two clips

Hi does anyone know how to insert video between two clips without erasing some of the two clips. I want to insert and have the other clips just make room for the new clip, extending the timeline the necessary amount. I thought you could just drag it in but it keeps erasing the existing footage in the timeline. Any advise would be awesome

Make sure the playhead is parked between two clips, and drag the clip from the browser/viewer to the canvas, dropping it on the "insert" box in the edit overlay. Or you could drag the clip from the viewer/browser to the timeline but make sure the arrow that appears is facing to the right, not down.

How to SIMPLY add audio crossfade between two clips ?

Tried to make a simple cut edit for tv news.
How to add an audio crossfade between two clips to soften transition ?
Detach audio, then create audio only scenario, then add transition ? Unusable.
When importing 8 tracks from Xdcam HD, how do you choose wich audio track to add your transition to ?
Also, impossible to re-export to Xdcam disk on the field.
This piece of software is simply unusable in real life pro conditions. Some very nice features, globally a disaster.

First thank you all for taking time to reply.
I found these solutions myself but for me these are only workaround.
In Fcp7, you just had to drag and drop dissolve transition to clips junctions TO AUDIO TRACK ONLY. Very quick and simple. In Fcpx, it is very time consuming if you want to add audio crossfade to every clip junction in a full project. That's really not a software evolution in my opinion...
I think "easy transitions to audio tracks only" has to be implemented in next version.
Thanks again !

Combining and Editing Sound in Titles Clip

Okay, now that I actually managed to capture the sound I wanted from my camera to my computer I am unable to find anything in the iMovie tutorial that explains how to get the sound and titles together AT ALL, much less exactly the way I want. How do you edit sound to coordinate it with picture? For instance:
1. Because of the nature of the capture device, I had to capture sound at the beginning and end of the clip that I didn't want to ensure I got ALL the sound I DID want. As a result, I want my opening titles sound to BEGIN at 1:23:28 and END at 1:59:17. I think the clip is almost exactly this length. If it's longer, and there's black screen/no sound for a few seconds at the end, FINE, but I don't want extra sound at the end of the audio clip spilling over onto the picture (titles). So how do I make sure that JUST this part of the clip ends up on the titles without recapturing it trying to cut it closer, and
2. How do I get the sound to play at the same time, in the same clip as the titles, at all? What is the exact process of putting picture and sound together?
Thanks for any replies. I'm off to work on the parts I do understand.

Although I can't find anything about combining picture and sound in the iMovie Tutorial, I did find something about shortening clips:
Keeping Only the Parts You Want
Edit clips in the timeline view
1. Click the Timeline Viewer button in the iMovie window.
2. Select a clip from the iMovie timeline.
3. Move your pointer to near the end of the clip and notice the pointer change to two arrows. This means you can trim your clip.
4. Drag your pointer toward the center of the clip and notice that the duration of your clip shortens as you move further to the left. You can see the new ending point in the clip viewer.
5. Stop dragging when you find exactly the frame you want to end your clip. Notice the right edge of your clip now displays a straight edge rather than rounded corners indicating an edit has been made.
6. If you change your mind and want to restore the clip to a longer duration, simply drag the edge to the right.
7. Repeat this process with the other end of the clip.
8. Save your iMovie project.
I don't see why in the world this wouldn't work just as well for a sound-only clip as a picture-and-sound clip. The only way I see of getting the out-of-sequence ones I want in the order I want is to either duplicate the clip and then shorten both clips, or delete the existing clip and recapture it as two clips--then shorten each to the length I want and somehow run them together in sequence. (Copying it into two clips would be faster and easier for me, but is it possible and does it make a difference?)
What I don't know is how to make it understand to put the three clips (these two shortened ones and the third I want to follow it) into ONE sound sequence, and then make it understand to run THAT sequence with the closing titles! How do I get each sound clip together with each other, then make it run together with each title clip I want? This has me at a loss. It would REALLY help if I could do this like TODAY! I will be DEEPLY GREATFUL to whoever can offer a CLUE!

When applying a transition between particular clips it only applies to the end of the previous clip and will neither 'Center on Edit' nor 'Start on Edit'. I'm kind new to FCE 4 so please excuse my inexperience.

This indicates that you only have handles available on one side of the edit point. If the transition ends on the edit, that means that the next shop begins on the first frame of the media file and there is no room for it to extend and create the necessary overlap.

RE : Drag and Drop operations between two outlinefields

Hi,
Has any one tried the drag and drop operations between two Outline widgets ina
window.Any help appreciated.
Thanks
balsubHi Balsub,
Here are some lines which can help you :
First of all, your 2 OutLineFields must be in a draggable state.
In the event loop of your window, you have to listen to the event
ObjectDrop
on the 2 OutLineFields :
When Self.<MyOutLine1>.ObjectDrop(SourceX = SourceX,
SourceY = SourceY,
SourceField = SourceField,
TargetX = TargetX,
TargetY = TargetY,
TargetField = TargetField) do
When Self.<MyOutLine2>.ObjectDrop(SourceX = SourceX,
SourceY = SourceY,
SourceField = SourceField,
TargetX = TargetX,
TargetY = TargetY,
TargetField = TargetField) do
Then, when you receive this event, the LocateNode() method will give you
the DisplayNode which is beeing dragged :
(assume that your OutLineFields are mapped to the class named :
ClassOutLine,
and Col is an Integer which is not important here)
TheSourceLine : ClassOutLine;
Col : Integer;
TheSourceLine = (ClassOutLine)((OutLineField)(SourceField).LocateNode(X
= SourceX,
Y = SourceY,
Column = Col));
If you want to remove this line from the Source OutLineField :
TheSourceLine.Parent = Nil;
TheSourceLine.UpdateFieldFromData();
If you want to insert this line at the end of the Target OutLineField :
TheSourceLine.Parent = (OutLineField)(TargetField);
TheSourceLine.UpdateFieldFromData();
And if you want to insert this line before or after the Target line of
the Target OutLineField :
TheTargetLine : ClassOutLine;
TheTargetLine = (ClassOutLine)((OutLineField)(TargetField).LocateNode(X
= TargetX,
Y = TargetY,
Column = Col));
TheTargetLine.PrevSibling = TheSourceLine; // Insert the source line
before the target line
or
TheTargetLine.NextSibling = TheSourceLine; // Insert the source line
after the target line
TheTargetLine.UpdateFieldFromData();
I hope this help you !

There is no configuration for it. It should work.
Can you try it in a different user account. If it works in a different account, then it is likely something in your current user account that is messed up. If it doesn't work in another user account, then it is likely something with Mail, itself.
You could try downloading and installing the 10.6.7 combo update. That may repair what is wrong.

Inserting a clip between two clips

I'm trying to insert a clip between two clips yet still having everything from all V/A 1,2,3,4,etc. layers to move along with whatever clip is moved down the line. Everyone keep saying: Use the ctrl key! but all that does is indeed move some of it down but it cuts bits of the video in the process. I'm not sure how to solve this. I simply want to drag and drop an item between two clips and not cut or mess up any additional V layers.

You can load a title into the Source Monitor by dragging it there from the Project Panel. But you can also use the insert command directly from the Project panel, via either the context menu or the same shortcut.
Be aware that if the sequence has In/Out points set, then the Insert & Overwrite commands will insert the selected source into that range. This is known as 3-point or 4-point editing (depending on whether you have both in & out points set in both the source and the sequence). If In/Out points are not set in the sequence, then the source is inserted at the playhead's position in the Timeline.
Also, source patching controls which tracks the clip is placed on. If you're not familiar with source patching, this tutorial video is worth watching.

Missing Format Text, Insert, and Edit Source, etc Options on Some Pages

I’m having trouble understanding why certain pages have more edit options than others. I’m new to Sharepoint Workspace 2010 and I’ve been reading/ researching for answers for 2 days now. I tried to HyperSnap in some pictures however it will not allow me
to until my account is verified and it's not sending a verification email, sorry!
Issue:
On some pages, I have the edit pencil with lots of great edit options such as Format Text, Insert and Edit Source. (This is good!)
On some pages I have no edit pencil, but when I go to Page
à Edit Page à I get few edit options, not including Format Text, Insert or Edit Source. (This is not good)
After reading other somewhat similar posts, I noticed that on the pages where I get lots of edit options, they show SitePages in the URL. Where I get few edit options, SitePages is not in the URL.
Is there a fix so that I can have the expanded edit options in all of my pages? Thank you for your help!

Hi,
In SharePoint we don’t have edit page options [ribbon toolbar page edit formatting options] for all types of page for application page we cannot edit application page like site pages
again the missing edit button might be due to many causes:
Can you verify that it's not a permissions issue? Try navigating to the page in edit mode by appending to the url: your-site/Pages/YourPage.aspx?ControlMode=Edit&DisplayMode=Design
Or you can try this
your-site/Pages/YourPage.aspx? ?ToolPaneView=2
1. You can check that on some pages the ribbon is hidden by default. You need to make it visible by clicking on "Show Ribbon" on the "Site Actions" drop-down menu.
2. You haven't been doing Visual Upgrade (which actually replaces your master page with the v4.master)
3. If you have different master page and may be your master page is not 100% compatibile with SP2010, nor does it use the elements from v4.master (collaboration) or the example nightandday.master
To add the button in your page you could use the <SharePoint:PageStateActionButton id="PageStateActionButton" runat="server" Visible="false" /> (if you've seen already that would generate the button on the left side of
the ribbon)!
Please can you ping the URL of the page and how you crated that page to further assist, we would be happy to help.

Drag and Drop images between two listviews

I need a help for listview drag n drop opretion on winform. where listview1 hold the images and i want to drag images from listview1 to listview2
and then when i click any button i want all paths of Images which is in the listview2. and also i want to set the image size on listview2. Please help me.

Hi Ajay Kumar,
According to your description, you'd like to drag and drop listviewitems between two listviews.
Here is my example for dropping items between listviews. You could add one imageList control to your form.
public Form1()
InitializeComponent();
this.listView2.AllowDrop = true;
this.listView1.AllowDrop = true;
this.listView2.View = System.Windows.Forms.View.LargeIcon;
this.listView2.DragDrop += new System.Windows.Forms.DragEventHandler(this.OnDragDrop);
this.listView2.DragEnter += new System.Windows.Forms.DragEventHandler(this.OnDragEnter);
this.listView1.ItemDrag += new System.Windows.Forms.ItemDragEventHandler(this.OnItemDrag);
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(@"D:\Material\Emoticons");
foreach (FileInfo file in dir.GetFiles())
try
this.imageList1.Images.Add(Image.FromFile(file.FullName));
catch
Console.WriteLine("This is not an image file");
this.listView1.View = View.LargeIcon;
this.imageList1.ImageSize = new Size(32, 32);
this.listView1.LargeImageList = this.imageList1;
this.listView2.LargeImageList = this.imageList1;
//or
//this.listView1.View = View.SmallIcon;
//this.listView1.SmallImageList = this.imageList1;
for (int j = 0; j < this.imageList1.Images.Count; j++)
ListViewItem item = new ListViewItem();
item.ImageIndex = j;
this.listView1.Items.Add(item);
private void OnItemDrag(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.ItemDragEventArgs e)
DoDragDrop(e.Item, DragDropEffects.Move);
private void OnDragEnter(object sender,
System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs e)
if (!e.Data.GetDataPresent(typeof(ListViewItem)))
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.None;
return;
var items = (ListViewItem)e.Data.GetData(typeof(ListViewItem));
if (items == null)
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.None;
else
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Move;
private void OnDragDrop(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs e)
ListViewItem items = (ListViewItem)e.Data.GetData(typeof(ListViewItem));
if (items != null)
this.listView2.Items.Add((ListViewItem)items.Clone());

How to insert and edit equations with Math Type in IBA??

Hi,
I want to add fractions in IBA with Math Type.
Here is what i found:
And here is the General Preferences
Like you see, i can't select Insert and edit equations with Math Type, it's grey.
How can i use Math Type?
Tx

We have an article that describes not only how to use MathType with iBooks Author (iBA), but also using LaTeX and MathML. http://www.dessci.com/en/support/mathtype/works_with.asp#!target=ibooks_author_m ac
It's important to note that no matter how you get equations into iBA, all equations are represented as MathML in the published iBook. (except, obviously I hope, equations that are simply images that you insert)
If you need more help, feel free to ask here.

Can I put my library on an external hard drive and use it between two computers?

Can I put my library on an external hard drive and use it between two computers? I have two MBP; I will refer to one as computer A and to the other as computer B. I would like to be able to plug in my external hard drive, boot up iTunes, and if there were any changes made to the library previous to its last time accessed on this compluter, they show up on that computer, regardless of being imported on the other.
A hypothetical example: I import three albums called 1, 2, and 3 on computer A over a week or so. I take the external hard drive and plug it into computer B. The entire library which was visible on A, is visible on B, including albums 1, 2, and 3.
Is this possible? If so, what files need to be copied onto the external? I'm trying some different combinations, trial and error basically. Hopefully someone knows and can answer before I mess up my library. I also want to do this to free up space on my computer. All importing will be done from disc.

iTunes/Preferences/Advanced : point your iTunes to the new location of the Library.
Set "Share on local network" in the Sharing tab, and you or everyone on the local network can play your music.
You make a backup first of the Library.
Move the follwing to the new location:
/Users/your username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music
have fun.
