Appearance of the cursor for the source text

Hello

I would use a cursor to display text (when the value of the slider is 0, the source text will display any results, when it's 10, the source text display the first 10 letters etc...). Like the typewriter animation effect (but I need with an expression of the Source text)

I have created a slider named "TextSlicer".

Wrote a text layer

And this expression in the Source text:

Try

{

text.sourceText.split("") [Math.round (effect ("TextSlicer") ("Slider"))]

}

catch (Err)

{text.sourceText}

With this expression, I post a letter in time.

My goal would be to show the letters N, based on the value of the slider:

text.sourceText.split("") [0] + text.sourceText.split("") [1] + text.sourceText.split("") [2], text.sourceText.split("") [n]...

Thank you!

fullText = 'blah blah ';

numLetters = Math.floor (("TextSlicer")("Slider").value) effect.

fullText.substr(0,numLetters);

You can also leave the text constant and add host text > opacity.

Xavier.

  • value of the cursor relative to the source text

    I'm trying to parent a host of kerning on a slider on SliderControl, which is related to the source text on TrackingControlof the text .

    The real problem here is parenting to the value of the cursor in the Source text. I tried this expression on the cursor, without success:

    txt = comp("thisComp").layer ("TrackingControl") .text .sourceText;

    If (! isNaN (parseFloat (txt)))

    parseFloat (txt)

    on the other

    value

    The expression gives me any errors, but it seems also connect to anything!

    Reason:

    I build titles for first models, which allow only the source text to be edited. So, to control kerning inside the comp from the AE model, I need parents host kerning to a text layer, which can be edited directly from the effects of first Panel.

    Solved my problem, LOL.

    Just had to remove the first line and re selection icon to get the correct syntax 'thisComp '.

    txt = thisComp.layer("tracking").text.sourceText;

    If (! isNaN (parseFloat (txt)))

    parseFloat (txt)

  • Open dialog box reorganizes the files that appear in the file text box

    I asked about this problem for a while - it still exists under Windows 7 Microsoft apparent feels that it is the correct behavior. In an application using a dialog open, where multiple files can be selected by clicking on them, while the CTRL key is held down, the resulting list of file names appears in the file text box. However, the first clicked file name remains last in the list while others remain in the proper order. Why is this? (An example of application is Windows Media Player, where you do a right click, then click on file and then open. The open dialog box appears and allows the selection of multiple files). When this "feature" has been more boring, it's when I try to create a CD or DVD and I want to control the order of the files.

    Hello RickL - CaryNC, welcome.

    This feature is by design. Of course, you can select the files in reverse order. I would really recommend providing feedback about this here:
    http://connect.Microsoft.com/

    Other than that, unless you use an alternative shell, the feature is a design problem. Ryan Thieman

  • Text appears in the new text box even if they say do not.

    So that's my problem. I'm trying make a text based game to learn a little more about coding, but even after looking around, I can't find a way to solve this problem.

    The point of the code is to have a type writer effect, I have a button to jump at the end of the timer and show all text at once, but because it doesn't seem to be part of the issue I failed it by below.

    What happens with the code below, it's that when the button is pressed a blank text box appears instead to display the new sting of the text. If the button is pressed before the end of the text by typing the text that appears in the following image will be the text which had no time to post.

    I tested with the 2nd fair framework be T1.text = "NewTexthere" and it worked properly but when the type writer effect is applied, is no longer works.

    -Part 1-

    Stop()

    T1. Text = «»

    var i = 0;

    var myString:String = "text".

    var mytimer:Timer = new Timer(10,myString.length);

    mytimer.addEventListener (TimerEvent.TIMER, timerHandler);

    myTimer.Start ();

    function timerHandler(event:TimerEvent):void {}

    T1. AppendText (myString.charAt (i));

    i ++ ;

    }

    Button1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToNextFrame);

    function fl_ClickToGoToNextFrame(event:MouseEvent):void

    {

    nextFrame();

    MyEventArgs;

    }

    -Part 2-

    T1. Text = «»

    var i2 = 0;

    var myString2:String = "NewTextHere".

    var mytimer2:Timer = new Timer(10,myString.length);

    mytimer2.addEventListener (TimerEvent.TIMER, timerHandler);

    mytimer2. Start();

    function timerHandler2(event:TimerEvent):void {}

    T1. AppendText (myString.charAt (i2));

    i ++ ;

    }

    ---------

    Why do you use the appearance of string 1 frame when you define a new string under 2?  Why I increment when you use i2?  Between the two of you might find the problem.

    var i2 = 0;

    var myString2:String = "NewTextHere";

    function timerHandler2(event:TimerEvent):void {}

    T1. AppendText (myString.charAt (i2));

    i ++ ;

    }

  • Name for the 'Source Text' property match

    Hey there,

    I am desperately looking for the name of 'Match' for a text layer "text Source" property. This might be fair, but I don't know how to continue:

    textLayer.property("ADBE_Text_Properties").property ("ADBE Text Document");

    I want to use the remove so that my script can be used in any installation of AE language.

    -pete

    Hey Pete (or John?).

    You got right up to now.  If you want to change the value... you can do something like this:

    var newText = "This is my new text!";
    
    textLayer.property("ADBE Text Properties").property("ADBE Text Document").setValue(newText);
    
    alert(textLayer.property("ADBE Text Properties").property("ADBE Text Document").value);
    

    Hope that helps!

  • Pavilion 500 - 206t: Boot Manager does not appear in the sources of boot UEFI

    I had a working system, until I installed Fedora on it...

    I have since removed Fedora, but cannot get the windows partition to start for the life of me.

    In the bios, I don't see "Microsoft boot manager" in the list of Sources of boot UEFI in the boot order.

    I have the original, untouched windows 7 x 64 partition, the HP recovery partition and 10 windows partition, I recently did a clean install, but still no start.

    I've deleted and recreated a 100 MB EFI partiton and a partion of 128 MB msr by using diskpart.

    formatted fat32 EFI, left the msr as-is.

    C:\Windows\Boot\EFI\ files on the EFI partition in \EFI\Windows\Boot

    Creates the via bcdedit boot manager entries.

    I tried:

    1. Bootrec /fixboot
    2. Bootrec /fixmbr
    3. Bootrec /rebuildbcd

    I also used boot bcd with uefi function to copy the files on

    I used an installation disc USB win10 to the foregoing as a win7 disc does not have the USB drivers for the keyboard and the mouse.

    Am I missing something for the HP Pavilion?

    Thanks in advance

    Repair of windows did nothing.

    I created a ultimatebootcd USB drive (http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/) and used parted Magic/clonezilla in order to image the old windows and partitions of hp recovery (not the entire disk) to a USB external HDD (plugged into USB 2.0 port)

    Then I deleted all partitions with parted magc.

    Install win 7 on the system with no partitions, it's easier to reduce windows on partition of 100 MB, but you can adjust it later, also don't you bother with the product key, ignore her.

    Restart the ultimate boot CD, choose parted Magic then Partition editor and create an important partition for windows = or superior to what it was when he was photographed. If your new installation of win 7 took the entire disk, simply to reduce the size of the partition and create the large partition to restore to, don't forget the restoration of 15 GB HP as well. If you don't see all the partitions or get an error in the score editor, see this link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1619381

    don't worry about formatting new partitions.

    To restore, you will need to rename the image files on the external hard disk created in the second paragraph above. The partition names will be changed, see this link: http://drbl.org/faq/fine-print.php?path=./2_System/102_restore_image_to_different_partition.faq#102_restore_image_to_different_partition.faq

    After the restoration, start windows installation disk and repair, it will be your old windows partition, restored. Save and reboot the old partition. If everything is successful, you can delete the newly installed partition win 7 and use msconfig in windows to delete startup entries. You can use parted magic to cultivate the restored partition, if you wish.

    Then, install windows 10 to get a true EFI boot.

  • Customize the appearance of the attribute - text and control

    The OPM user guide provides guidance on how to customize the text (issues, labels, etc.) and controls: here

    However, the OPM IDE does not allow the two to be customized at the same time. If the 'IsHTML' box is ticked then the CSS fields are grayed (and occult content precedent).

    Is it possible to customize text and control for the same attribute style?

    In order to make the two guests of question HTML tagged and change the styles/class for the control, you must change the models in speed and/or CSS files directly.  Guide the developer Oracle policy Automation for your version to reference:

    http://www.Oracle.com/technetwork/apps-tech/policy-automation/documentation/index.html (for example for 10.4.3 article http://docs.oracle.com/html/E48376_01/toc.htm#Interviews/Change_Controls.htm covers the different types of changes to the controls)

  • A loop through hyperlinks and add * at the end of the hyperlink source text?

    Hello

    I'm sure it's very simple, but my javascript is a little rusty and a little short of time, so I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction?

    I need a script that loops through all the hyperlinks in a document (no matter what styles are or are not applied). Please check the source text to see if it starts with "www" or "http".

    If the source text starts with "www" or "http" then do nothing. OTHERWISE add an * at the end of the text. In other words if there is text in the document as "Click on this link" (and there had a hyperlink applied) it would be changed to "click on this link." If there is text in the document as "www.google.com" (and there had a hyperlink applied), it would remain unchanged. The hyperlinks themselves remain unchanged.

    So I'm not sure what my If/else statement must be?

    Links = app.activeDocument.hyperlinks;

    for (i = 0; i < links.length; i ++)

    {if

    ???

    }

    Thank you very much in advance for your help!

    Angèle

    How stupid. You are absolutely right. The names of hyperlink above, test script must test the hyperlink source texts. In the small sample, I have tested the script on, names of hyperlink and source texts were the same, that's why I had not spotted the questionable logic of the script. This scripts properly tests:

    hlinks = app.documents[0].hyperlinks.everyItem().getElements();
    re = /^(?:http|www)/;
    for (i = hlinks.length-1; i >= 0; i--) {
      if (hlinks[i].source.hasOwnProperty ('sourceText') && !re.test (hlinks[i].source.sourceText.contents)) {
        hlinks[i].source.sourceText.contents += '*';
      }
    }
    

    This would also explain the unexpected behavior of your / ^ j / test. (/ ^ j / tests whether a string starts with 'j' - no need to the * or the parentheses.)

  • Connecting the AE CS6 external text document source text property

    Hello

    I would like to load text from an external .txt file in the Source text property. I've seen many ways to do it on the web, but it seems that it is changed in CS6. (All the examples I've found are for CS4 or CS5).

    I'm on a macbook pro. The (data.txt) .txt file is on the desktop.

    That's what I tried to associate with the Source text property:

    1)

    myPath = "/data.txt";

    try{

    $.evalFile (myPath);

    eval(thisComp.name);

    }catch (err){

    "not found"

    }

    Here, I get "not found".

    2)

    myPath = "/c/data.txt";

    $.evalFile(myPath)

    Here, I get the error: "file or folder does not exist.

    The name of my computer is 'sc100' and the text file says:

    sc100 = "My Text"; ; 

    Is there a good way to do this in CS6? Or I just hurt?

    -KolibriEirik

    If you are on a mac and the file is located on your desktop, the correct path would be:

    ~/Desktop/data.txt

    If you are unsure of a path, you can always use a test script like this to check:

    Var Dittos is File.openDialog ("select the file");.

    $.writeln (theFile.absoluteURI);

    I just tried to use $. evalFile() and it worked well for me.

    I made a movie of 30 minutes or more in WMM, some of the videos that I imported I had to convert to wmv, to import into WMM.

    It's not really about the location... error messages can be very cryptic...
    The error that you mentioned usually appears when the source files in the project
    are damaged or are not fully compatible with Movie Maker and made
