Widescreen window size query

Apologies if this query has already been aired.
I want to burn a FCE project to DVD but have met a problem whereby the widescreen (16:9) final image isn't 'full size'.
Originally, the movie was created using iMovie and then sent to iDVD and has been put to good use.
However, the iMovie project file has been lost and so I ripped the video from one of the DVD's and then used FCE to re-edit, add content etc.
This done, I've exported the movie to QuickTime with, I think, the correct 16:9 settings, etc and then used iDVD to create a disc image and the burnt copies using Toast. However, the final viewed image is of a reduced size (correct 16:9 proportions).
The same movie which was at one time edited with iMovie and then sent to iDVD is viewed correctly, ie full screen.
Can anyone please tell me where I'v gone wrong or advise on a more "correct" way of burning DVD from FCE?
Many thanks,
TonyT

Did you check item properties as I asked? What are the item properties for the clips you imported exactly? Is the anamorphic flag set? What are the item properties for the edited sequence exactly? Is the anamorphic flag set there?
Tom,
Sorry, if my answers seem vague it's because I'm somewhat of a novice with regards to FCE, so please bear with me. I've resorted to using FCE here because iMovie is not producing what I require. (I intend to use FCE from now on, btw).
It would, I guess, be easier if I could send screen shots which may identify the problem better.
The item properties on both the imported QT movie and the new QT sequence have Anamorphic 'checked'.
7. You are exporting to QuickTime Movie, correct, and taking that to QuickTime Pro, correct?
"not fill the screen as the original iMovie result did" Once again, does this mean it's letterboxed? Please tell how it is not filling the screen and what you see. I cannot see your computer.
I am exporting the finished FCE project to QT Pro and when burnt to DVD, the finished product is in the correct 16:9 ratio but is a smaller image surrounded by black. The original filled the screen.
I cannot really describe it any better with words; again, a screen-shot would better describe.
I cannot help feeling the problem lies in QuickTime somewhere. This is because a similar problem exists when the QT file is imported back into iMovie. In the iMovie window the 16:9 aspect ratio is maintained but the overall image does not fill the window and this is in spite of the correct iMovie prefs being applied.
Using the same QT file imported into FCE presumably will inherit the 'problem'.
You should know that the resulting video will never be to the standard of the original video as it was heavily compressed to get it onto the DVD.
Yes, I'm expecting some degradation in video quality, but this problem of not retaining full screen isnot what I expected.
Again, your patience is appreciated.

  • JTextArea wordwrap according to the window size

    Hi All,
    I have a problem with JTextArea. I am constructing my UI as explained below:
    1. Panel with GridBagLayout.
    2. This panel have a grid of component. Each row will have a text area as a description and a text field to enter the value
    [ Text Area ] [Text Field]
    [ Text Area ] [Text Field]
    [ Text Area ] [Text Field]
    3. This panel is added to a scroll pane.
    Now the problem is when the description in the Text Area is large, then the horizontal scrollbar will be large. mean lot of horizontal scrolling.
    So I made text area to wrap at word boundaries and setting the columns size to 40. But now the problem is if the window is made large, still Text Area will wrap at 40th column leaving lot of empty area.
    So rather setting the column counts, i need the Text Area to wrap according to the window size. Is is possible? Looking for suggestions.....

    here comes the demo code. you can copy and run it.
    import java.awt.GridBagConstraints;
    import java.awt.GridBagLayout;
    import javax.swing.JFrame;
    import javax.swing.JPanel;
    import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
    import javax.swing.JTextArea;
    import javax.swing.JTextField;
    import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
    public class TestScroll extends JFrame
         private int width;
         public void showUI()
              SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable()
                   public void run()
                        setSize(300,300);
                        setVisible(true);
                        setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
         public void init()
              JPanel panel = new JPanel(new GridBagLayout());
              GridBagConstraints gc = new GridBagConstraints();
              gc.fill = GridBagConstraints.HORIZONTAL;
              gc.weightx = 1; gc.weighty = 0;
              JTextArea area = new JTextArea("Please enter your name :");
              area.setOpaque(false);
              JTextField field = new JTextField(15);
              area.setWrapStyleWord(true);
              area.setLineWrap(true);
              panel.add(area,gc);
              gc.gridwidth = GridBagConstraints.REMAINDER;
              panel.add(field,gc);
              JScrollPane scroll = new JScrollPane(panel);
              //scroll.setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_NEVER);
              setContentPane(scroll);
         public static void main(String args[])
              TestScroll scroll = new TestScroll();
              scroll.init();
              scroll.showUI();
    }When you initially run it you can see that "Please enter your name is word wrapped.." when I expand the window, it unfolds (cool!) But when I shrink the window back, I expect the above to wrap again, rather than creating scrollbar :(.
    Note : I will need scrollbar, because I need to scroll vertically when there are many prompts for the user.
    Hope I have now clarified my query. Looking for a suggestion still !!

  • How can I customize window size and have it stay that way? It automatically maximizes the moment I click anywhere on the page.

    I have added a large widescreen monitor and now have a two-screen set up. This taxed my old video card, so we replaced that, too. Then I updated Firefox. Now my window automatically maximizes. "Restore" is the same size as "Maximize", and I can resize it if I carefully drag and drop all four corners. But if I click on the top bar to relocate the resized window, it re-maximizes. I can't find any options or settings that allow me to fix the window size, lock a customized window size, etc. IE8 is not doing this, so I don't think it's the monitor or desktop settings.

    Window sizes and positions are stored in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder].<br />
    <br />
    Delete localstore.rdf or rename the file to localstore.rdf.sav in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] to test if the file is corrupted.<br />
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf<br />
    (caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)<br />
    <br />
    Note:<br />
    Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults.<br />
    You can rename "localstore.rdf" to "localstore.rdf.sav" to test if that solves it.<br />
    Then you can restore the customization by copying "localstore.rdf.sav" to "localstore.rdf" if it didn't work.

  • Window sizes settings have somehow changed and my windows do not open in the correct size anymore. How do I get my original window sizes to come back PERMANENTLY?

    After upgrading to FF 10.0, my window sizes are not correct. I use a web-based invoicing system and my invoice windows used to open to the size of the invoice. Now, it opens invoices in full screen. I need the invoice windows to open the way the site tells them to open. How do I make that happen again and never change after that?

    Safe mode disables the installed '''Extensions''', themes ('''Appearance''') and '''Plugins''' in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''. So it could be that an extension is causing it. You can try to isolate it starting with script blockers and similar extensions and '''Disable''' or '''Remove''' it.
    Please also note that safe mode also disables hardware acceleration: '''Tools''' > '''Options''' > '''Advanced''' > '''General''': '''Use hardware acceleration when possible'''.

    That's what APDivs do.  This is the single most common problem new people have with web page layouts.  DO NOT use positioning.  You don't need it.  Start over.  Learn to use CSS floats, margins and padding to align elements.

  • How to change the default window size display font size on Lync 2013 main window?

    Hi champs,
    Just a simple non-technical question: How to change the default window size display font size on Lync 2013 main window on Windows 7 desktop?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Did you mean change the Lync: Change the Default Font and Color of Instant Messages just as Edwin said above?
    If not, as I know, there is no natural way to change it.
    If yes, on the latest version of Lync 2013 client, there is a new option “IM” on Lync client “Options” list. And you need to change the default Font and Color of IM in the interface of “IM”.

  • How  to change default window size?

    I'm using MX 6.0 on Mac... For some reason I can't figure out
    how to change the default window size in the work windows. Every
    time I open a new file to work on it opens to a smaller size than
    the actual page is. When opening pages dozens of times a day, it
    gets annoying to have to resize each time. I'm sure it wasn't
    always like this, but I can't figure out how to change it so the
    default size that it opens to each time is larger.
    Thanks for any help,

  • How to change Default Finder Windows Size?

    Hi all:
    New Finder windows show Macintosh HD and there is no problem in keeping the size or view options every time I open a new window (command + N).
    I can change "New Finder windows show" to another folder and works just as well.
    But when I open a folder in a new window (double click on an icon folder) the size of the window is very small and different from the window displayed by using command + N.
    Finder saves and applies default view options to all windows without a problem, but not the default size or in other words: 
    default windows size is different from new finder windows size.
    In Snow Leopard I could change default size of all windows holding down the Shift key while dragging and changing the size but in Mountain Lion it does not work.
    I have also deleted all files .DS_Store but neither works.
    I searched a lot but can not find a solution to this problem.
    Thanks.

    As far as New Finder Windows (command+N) are concerned, there's no problem.
    All other folder's Finder Windows I have not modified manually are displayed with the default size shown in the attached image. That is the window size that I want to modify.
    Thanks.

  • How can I change the default window size of a new message permanently?

    The mail window opens up very small and every time I must increase the size manually. I want to be able to set it so it opens larger or at least opens to the saem size as a previous mail window, which is what Mail used to do.
    Also, can anyone tell me how to stop that new mail window from opening on the bottom left of my screen? I need to move it in orde to increase the window size. So, 2 default actions that are a psin to constantly deal with.
    Is there any guru out there who has had this problem and solved it? Thanks!

  • How do I set the Launch window size (from launch from an LMS) in Captivate 5.5?

    When my project launches from the LMS, the lauch window is smaller that the actual project size and requires the user to resize the window to see the whole project. My LMS administrator tells me that the launch window size is not controlled by the LMS so I am trying to figure out how I can set this to match the project dimensions.

    The size of the browser window CAN be controlled by the LMS, but some LMSs are hopeless in this area and don't provide the settings to do so.
    Moodle for example allows you to specify that the course content will open in a new window each time an item in the LMS TOC is clicked and what the height and width of that window will be. However, all versions of SumTotal before the latest one did not give you this option (and that despite the exhorbitant price difference between these two products.)
    So your LMS admin might be correct in that HIS particular LMS cannot control the size of the launch window, but that's not because no LMS can do this.

  • How do I set the window size of a course in SumTotal (LMS)

    I recently created an AICC course using Captivate 5.5 for a client using SumTotal as their LMS. When the client loads the course, the course launchs in a window that is smaller than the course itself; the user then has to adjust the window size to view the entire course. I have read on various posts that this cannot be controlled by myself through the .htm file settings, and that this has to be set within the LMS.
    So my question is: Where and how does the client set the course window size within SumTotal? Does anyone know?!
    thanks

    No, edit the html files that come with Captivate. Either hand edit the
    html file that is produced every time you publish, or locate the files
    in the Captivate 5 directory and customise them to suite your needs.

  • How can I change the window size of iTunes?  Used to be easy before installing Mavericks.

    How can I change the window size of iTunes on my iMac?  Used to be easy before installing Mavericks.

    If you want to make the itunes tab so you can see the dock
    you press the
    esc
    button if your in full screen mode
    if you want to get into full screen mode you press the arrows facing away from eachother in the top right corner
    there is another way to get to the normal tab if your in full screen
    make the curser go right up to the top of the screen and it will show the apple tab
    it will have two arrows facing together highlited in blue
    if u tap that it will take you to the normal tab

  • How can I adjust event window size while in day view on ical?

    How can I adjust the all-day event window size while in day view on ical?  I have thee all-day events, but they're just a little too big to simultaneously appear without having to scroll up/down the all-day event section.

    {Ctrl + Scroll wheel} does a Page Zoom and that setting is saved domain by domain.
    '''View > Zoom > Reset''' while you're viewing one of those zoomed-out pages in the SmartZone.
