Why is the points on the 4 point matte incorrect ?

Hi all FCE4 experts,
I am trying to use the 4-point matte to cover-up some of the video clip.
But when I click one point of the clip in the canvas, instead it went/move to another location ? I cannot get the 4 points correct.
I also make sure I did not enlarge the clip & still image & let it be at its default scale.
Any ideas ?
Thank you

When you select the Garbage Matte you must open the Filters tab in the Viewer where you will see the 4 points listed with a button containing a + alongside.
Click on Point 1 in the Filters window and then click in the Canvas where you want Point 1 to go. (Alternatively you can grab and drag it). However, you only have one go, and once you have repositioned it or let go of the mouse you can't move it again until you once more click the Point 1 in the Filter window.
Thanks Ian,
I did like what you said, I click on Point 1 with the "+" sign then I move to the Canvas & click on a point in the canvas.
Originally all 4 points (ie Point 1, 2, 3, 4) are all at the corners but the moment I click on a point at the canvas, FCE changes the corner of Point 1 to a different position. But this position is NOT the location that I clicked earlier !!
Any ideas ?

  • Why is the Analog Input data incorrect when VI is restarted?

    In the attached Read Temp.vi I get correct data the first time it is run. Once stopped and then restarted the data values are incorrect. If I remove TS-1 from the I/O channel list then correct data is reported even when rerun. Why do I get incorrect data when I rerun and have TS-1 in the I/O channel list?

  • Why is the free disk space incorrect?

    When i display info on the disk of my macbook air i get the following info showing that 395 Gbyte is available on a 250 Gbyte disk and none used.
    Obviously wrong. What can i do to correct this?

    Thanks, Simple and direct solution. I am a bit surprised as it shows that not all functions in MAC OS are well built. Do you think Apple will correct this in future, and are they already working on this?
    Kind regards.

  • Why does the Adobe App Mgr incorrectly insist on a Creative Cloud subscription?

    I have valid and active licenses for many Adobe products, all associated with my Adobe ID. I was using a CS6 license key just fine, until the Adobe Application Manager started complaining and asking for a cloud sub renewal. I do not want to run this under a cloud sub. I have the full license key already. But the Adobe App Mgr does not provide a way to enable it. What to do?

    And on Windows you can't ignore, skip or postpone that installation.

  • Why does the pen tool remove previous line when I add new anchor points??

    Why does the pen tool remove previous lines??
    Video here:  http://youtu.be/8AmPUkD88h0 
    It removes the hairline on the face, when I add more anchor points. Why? And how do I correct it?

    The ins and outs of the new and changed behaviors in the re-engineered pen tool have been disussed here on this forum and I'm sure a little detour to the help files will also shed some light on this...

  • Why does the arrow pointer become a hand?

    i just noticed that the arrow pointer becomes a hand when hovering over clickable links and i don't believe that it has always done so....is this supposed to happen? 

    That's obviously NOT what I meant.    I meant, as a percentage of total "personal computing," over time, more of it will be happening on touchscreen DEVICES (such as iPad and iPhone).  And more people will ONLY have a touchscreen mobile computing device, and not even own a desktop or laptop computer.  And THAT is why having a "pointer" on the screen that changes shape "may become less common in the future."
    Unlike Microsoft and the Windows 8 kludge, Apple is clearly intent on keeping Macs and touchscreen iOS devices distinct and separate.  Macs (from 27-inch iMac to 11-inch MacBook Air) will continue to have an interface optimized for keyboard and mouse/trackpad.  And iOS mobile devices will continue to evolve its touchscreen-based interface.  That's a very good thing...

  • Why is the upgrade to iOS 7.0.4 (1.31 GB) taking ELEVEN HOURS?

    Why is the upgrade to iOS 7.0.4 (1.31 GB) taking ELEVEN HOURS?  After 2 full hours I have downloaded 240 MB!
    I realize my Internet speed of 2.5 Mbit/sec is not blistering, but it is the fastest available to me at my rural location.  It easily manages 8 to 10 GBs of material from other sites.
    There are no other users on the system and no other downloads taking place.  I am using a wired connection (not WiFi).
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Paul Good ([email protected])

    I am using iTunes and as I pointed out in my query, I am using the fastest connection available to me.
    From other sites a file of 1.31 GB would take me less than 40 minutes!

  • Why is the brush tool in Illustrator CC inferior to the brush tool in CS6? It has less control of fidelity and smoothness. It is terrible - and I'm an illustrator. Can I use the CS6 brush engin in CC?

    I loved the brush tool in CS6 Illustrator- by turning fidelity to the lowest setting, and smoothness down to zero, pumping up pressure sensitivity, it accurately reproduced the fine shapes of a drawn stroke. I'm an illustrator, so I don't want artificially smoothed curves, I want the line I drew.
    This works really well with my Wacom Cintiq tablet... but now CC has removed this level of customisation for the brush tool. WHY? The program is called Illustrator, and as an illustrator, I can tell you having an accurate and finely adjustable brush engine to illustrate with is very important to me and to lots of other people who can draw, and draw for a living.
    Now you get this dumbed down control panel when you double click on the brush tool icon- just one slider, with only 4 steps from 'accurate' (not very) to 'smooth' (almost indistiguishable from 'accurate')... it is like I have contracted a nerve disease - I draw a line, and it forms into something quite different to the path my pen took. WHY? Can I get rid of this rubbish engine? Trying the blob brush - what is the point of this brush? It is just like the old brush, except for a cursor that shows the largest size for pressure sensitivity... and it has the same crude 4 step smooth/accurate adjuster, that doesn't change the line much at all. I have the latest driver in my Cintiq, so I don't think that is the issue, and CS6 works better than CC.
    I am very disappointed, Adobe. Do I have to go back to CS6 for all my Illustration work? Please improve the CC brush tool controls.
    I am still reeling from Adobe's quiet removal of a whole tool: Inverse Kinematics/Bone tool from Flash CC JUST when I was finally using it to animate, but that's another story.
    Honestly, having use them for a while, Photoshop,
    Illlustrator, InDesign and Flash CC are, as far as I can tell, no step up at all from CS6, except that you have to pay for them forever.

    More on this, now becoming known as the CC pencil tool fiasco, on these fora:
    Re: PLEASE PLEASE adobe. The new pencil tool has become unusuble to me
    Re: Changing line fidelity with CS6 Brush Tool
    Re: All pressure sensitive brush presets gone!
    If you are affected by the lower accuracy controls for CC's brush or pencil tools, use this Bug report/Feature request form to let the folks at Adobe know- they are actually hopefully going to fix this.......
    thanks to Daniel for setting this up:
    hey all, if you are going to file a bug report (as per Neeraj's suggestion), i've made up a draft to make the process easier.  feel free to adjust it as much as you want, obviously; trying to equip us busy folk.
    Obviously customer service & product development are two different departments, so if you're bummin out on the new functionality, submit a bug report!

    ******BUG******
    Concise problem statement:
    I was told to by Neeraj N(staff) to report this issue based on this link : (http://forums.adobe.com/message/6065706).
    The Pencil / Brush tools have lost essential functionality with the addition of the new accurate / smooth adjustment preset. Users are no longer able to specify high-accuracy pen mapping, as the finest accuracy setting is now set to 2.5px (legacy versions allowed accuracy to .5px).
    I would think adding additional slider nodes to allow more accurate mapping (while still using the accurate / smooth preset) allow for a minimal change in programming with a maximum return for power users.
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1. open illustrator
    2. use either pencil or brush tool.
    3. draw erratic and high detail shapes
    Results: shapes are smoothed to 2.5px smoothness, even when the accurate / smooth adjustment preset is set to full accuracy.
    Expected results: shapes have minimal / no smoothing to maintain the integrity of the artwork.
    Thank you for your consideration.

  • Why is the Zen Touch.

    I just wanted know know one thing, WHY DID YOU GUYS MAKE THE SMALLER ONES BETTER THAN THIS?!?!?! I own a 40gb creative zen touch and a friend of mine has a smaller 5gb one with exactly everything the touch has except the touch pad on the smaller one is better (liek the design you guys decided to choose) and having radio, as well as having the mic thing where you can record anything without using your computer. For example you can record important meetings in case you miss something out during the meeting without have a microphone connected to the computer to record. (if you dont know what i mean well i mean you just have the mp3 and you put the record function on during a conversation and you can listen to it afterwards instead of using a regular computer with a microphone at home...)
    Anyway my whole point is why make the smaller ones better than the bigger ones? 20-40gb is very nice but why make some smaller ones better and more options to work with? Is it because the Zen Touch's are older and the smaller ones are newer?
    This makes me want to get a refund now and get a Zen Vision or whatever can do Radio/Music/Pictures/videos/mic recording/lots of size (20gb or 40gb).
    Basically this sounds like a media source player but i have no idea since the things are so big and can barely fit in a pocket.
    Please respond in advance and thank you for your time.
    EDIT: I forgot to ask, why is the Zen Touch so thick?Message Edited by Someguy0 on 0-23-2006 :53 PM

    The reason (I speculate) that the Zen Touch doesn't have all the features that the Zen Micro has is because it is a much older player. It was made before Creative started putting FM radio adn Microphones in all their players.
    And it is so thick because of the 24 hour battery, which takes up a good part of the player.

  • Why is the installer stuck on "Checking System Profile-"?

    I'm trying to install Flash Catalyst Beta on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.6.1 (Snow Leopard).
    The installer starts to work, but then it stops at the point where it checks the system profile (see attached screenshot). It doesn't seem to have crashed as the dock icon allows me to quit without force quitting the application.
    I've tried it in my regular user account and the administrator account, but the behaviour is identical.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I appreciate all your efforts, but I¹ve just received my new copy of CS5, so
    I¹ll be installing the final version.

    Subject: Why is the installer stuck on "Checking System
    Profile…"?
    Thanks Gary.
    I need to ask you a few questions and request you to perform some more steps
    so that I can debug your problem.
    1. Have you modified any folder permissions, authorization setup using
    Keychain Access utility (or any other tool)?
    2. Open a Terminal window, and run the command 'ls -l /tmp' and copy-paste
    the output printed on your screen in your reply.
    3. Delete all files whose name start with 'asu' in your /tmp folder. Run the
    command 'rm -rf /tmp/asu*'. Restart your machine.
    4. Launch the Flash Catalyst setup and check if installation proceeds
    successfully. If it doesn't, proceed to the step below.
    5. Open the folder containing the Flash Catalyst setup. Browse to the
    'packages' folder and rename the file 'install.sig' to 'update.sig'. Double
    click and launch the Flash Catalyst setup. This will not install the
    application but install the Adobe Application Manager. Let me know if you
    see a small dialog with a progress bar. Rename back update.sig to
    install.sig. Update us your observations. Continue to next step.
    6. Launch 'Disk Utility' app (from /Applications/Utilities). Select your OS
    partition in the left panel and click on 'First Aid' tab on the top. Click
    on the 'Repair Disk Permissions' button at the bottom.
    7. Again, launch the Flash Catalyst setup and check if installation proceeds
    successfully. If it doesn't, proceed to the step below.
    8. Open a Terminal window and navigate to the directory containing the Flash
    Catalyst setup. Run the command 'sudo Install.app/Contents/MacOS/Install'
    and enter the password. Let me know if the installer launches and on
    following the screen instructions do you still see the error screen or does
    the installation proceed successfully.

  • Why is the iPages 5.0 (not beta on iCloud) getting such bad reviews? I was interested in trying it.

    Why is the iPages 5.0 (not beta on iCloud) currently getting such bad reviews? I was interested in trying it on a MacBook Air or Pro.

    We would be grateful if you could point out any errors in the list, but we do check.
    The list does not claim features moved to the System are "missing". There are separate lists of added and changed features.
    There are many people who claim to know what they are talking about but on closer examination it becomes clear they really do not know much about iWork, nor about the features they claim to have "found" in Pages 5.
    I would be hesitant to claim that you were part of the beta testing of Pages 5 for 2 reasons.
    1. Apple does ask you to sign a non-disclosure agreement
    2. You then are part of the problem
    Maybe, now you have disclosed that you were testing, you can explain how on Earth something so bad  was released on an unsuspecting public, with no warning of what Apple had done and that it would alter/damage users' work.

  • Why is the music clip marked with a yellow warning sign?

    While browsing my project library today, I noticed that every music clip associated with a particular project is marked with a yellow "warning" triangle (with an exclamation point in the center). What's worse, the music won't play.
    I had previously uploaded this video to YouTube, where it now plays just fine. But I'm still puzzled by the warning sign, and by the fact that the music won't play when I take a look at it in my Project Library.
    I've never had a warning sign like this emerge in connection with anything else I've put together with iMovie. Why is it there, and why are the music clips inoperative? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi !
    I have a question. I had that little warning sign as well but in the clip I had just imported into the event library... I don't understand because when I went to the folder in which iMovie copies the clips I import, it was right there. Same name, same size, same runtime... and it played perfectly; and I could preview the clip in iMovie. But the thumbnail was gray with that little sign. Also, I couldn't delete the clip from my library.
    I closed iMovie, started it again... the clip is in the library, no more gray thumbnail and little yellow sign.
    How is that possible ?!

  • Why is the ActionForms validate-Method called twice?

    Hello forum,
    I'm new to struts and want to develop a form, where an internetuser can leave a comment to an article. Just like most sides, an image with an text is displayed, the text has to be written into an inputfield before the comment is commited in order to be saved.
    When an user puts in no text or a wrong one, a errormessage is displayed, the old image is deleted and an new one is created and shown to the user. His input still stays in the fields.
    I proof the correctness of the word in the validate-Method of the ActionForm and it works fine.
    Now I've the following problem:
    If the user puts in the correct text, the comment is saved and the side is displayed again including his comment.. But also all the input of the form should be erased. But for some reason, its not and the validate method is called again and since there is a new wordvarifyingimage and a new text to be inserted, it throws an error which is displayed again. Also, all the input of his last message is present!
    So, I guess I miss a big point about the ActionForm handling. Why is the ActionForm called twice and why doesn't it erase the old input? I try to do this in the Action class after saving the comment, setting all the formparameters to "" or null.
    Can anybody give me a hint?
    Would be a big big help since I've not found anything googling about this issue.
    If you need code, just tell me which part I put in here (ActionForm, Action, struts-config or jsp-file)

  • Why does the keyboard cover text fields ios 8

    Why does the keyboard cover text fields in safari in ios 8 in safari?  I've never had this problem before, but now when a text field is near the bottom of the page, I can't move it above the keyboard.  If there any fix? This is extremely annoying and renders filling in text on many web pages impossible.

    This solved it for me. I only needed to split it once before it was fixed (but shouldn't have had to do it at all). Thanks, chuck9999, you're my hero!

    Re: Why does the keyboard cover text fields ios 8in response to TeraBI had the exact same problem on my iPad Air and it's working fine now. Try toggling your keyboard a few times between split and regular using the keyboard key in the lower right corner.  I also then docked the keyboard a few times.  The turned-off/rebooted the iPad and it's worked fine ever since.  I stumbled upon the fix reading another post, and it did work although not sure why.  My guess is toggling the keyboard and rebooting updated something in the "registry".
