Hi Rickysbiz,

You can try to cut the clip and take a fresh start or endpoint for the clip to set the duration. The start trim point determines when the clip will start playing, and the end trim point determines when the clip stops in your project and final film.

To trim a video clip

1. If you are in the Storyboard view, click, and then on the timeline.

2. in the timeline panel, click the clip you want to cut.

3 use the controls to play under the preview monitor to find the point where you want to cut out the clip.

4 follow these steps:

·        When the playback indicator is at the location where you want the video or audio clip selected in replay, clickClip and then click TrimBeginning.

·        When the playback indicator is at the location where you want the video or audio clip selected to stop playback, clickClip, and then click TrimEnd.

  • How to change the Javascript code to make an exception for a single read command?

    Hello


    I posted a question earlier in another sub-forum and found this script that makes the form read-only fields. Now, I have a particular coding question.


    First of all, here's the code:

    var r = app.alert("Are you ready to lock this document?",2,2);
    if (r == 4) { // 4 is Yes, 3 is No
      
    for (var i = 0; i < this.numFields; i++) {
      
    var fname = this.getNthFieldName(i);
      
    this.getField(fname).readonly = true; // makes all fields readonly
      
    }
    }

    On the bottom of my form, I have a button that allows you to set the read-only form, but I also have other keys such as "print". How do I change the code above to make an exception for the command of read-only for my buttons so that they are still functional at the bottom of my form? I don't know anything about Javascript then this is a foreign language for me.

    Any help is appreciated!

  • Animated buttons: how to change the Clip?

    My buttons animated always play the first 15 seconds of the chapter. Usually, I want to start the clip a few seconds later. How?

    Select the chapter marker of the chapter, you work with.    Move the CTI until you want the button to start animation.  Right-click, "Set poster frame."  If there is already a separate poster frame of the chapter marker, you can drag only.

    Duration etc is interesting.  I think that the length of the menu is defined for the buttons also.  And a loop point also apply to the button, it is apparent from the poster frame.

  • How can I change the volume in movie maker, before a record?

    I am trying to edit videos created on a low end JVC camera. First converted some mpg, opened in movie maker and then saved as wmv files. But it's really complicated to nedopil, very SLOW save and no volume control I see! Maybe there is a better way than with a film-maker.  But at least a little more volume would be out me a hole.

    Something to try...

    For the timeline... right click on the audio or Audio / Music
    follow and choose... Volume... or... kind of... CTRL + U.. hen, drag the slider.

  • How do they affect times a clip and the clip from movie of child in the same function?

    I have really two questions: how both affect a clip and the clip from movie of child in the same function? and how to get information of a component in one service for another?

    My basic setup is a clip of choice of fonts, one on each image: "bodyText_mc." Each of these frameworks has a clip of the child 'bodyText_mc.bodyText' with choice of alignment for the police. For example, the user chooses 'Script' in the first ComboBox, then selects "Align right" in the second. (This text is static, because I need more great design control I can get with dynamic text.)

    First of all, I have a combobox "cbBodyFont" that I use to go from one image to the image on movieclip 'bodyText_mc.' It works fine:

    cbBodyFont.addEventListener (Event.CHANGE, changeBodyFont);

    function changeBodyFont(e:Event):void {}

    var bodyFontFrame:String = cbBodyFont.selectedItem.data;

    bodyText_mc.gotoAndStop (bodyFontFrame);

    }

    However, if I also want to assign a child element of "bodyText_mc", like this:

    cbBodyFont.addEventListener (Event.CHANGE, changeBodyFont);

    function changeBodyFont(e:Event):void {}

    var bodyFontFrame:String = cbBodyFont.selectedItem.data;

    bodyText_mc.gotoAndStop (bodyFontFrame);

    bodyText_mc.bodyText.gotoAndStop (2);

    }

    It won't let me. Add a command to the clip of the child 'bodyText_mc.bodyText' runs to a null object reference error. I can affect the parent element or the child element, but not both. Why?

    And part 2 of my question:

    I have an another combobox "alignBodyCb" that I use to go from one image to the image in this child clip "bodyText_mc.bodyText". The user selects Center, left, or right alignment.

    alignBodyCb.addEventListener (Event.CHANGE, changeBodyAlign);

    function changeBodyAlign (e: Event): void {}

    var elementAlignBodyFrame:String = alignBodyCb.selectedItem.data;

    bodyText_mc.bodyText.gotoAndStop (elementAlignBodyFrame);

    }

    The problem is that when the user switches to a new image of "bodyText_mc" with the changeBodyFont function, always, it goes to frame 1 of the child clip "bodyText", change the font, but back to the alignment of the centre. I need the font combobox to "remember" the active data from the drop-down list alignment, can still send the clip of the child to that frame. What I want is something like this (although it obviously does not):

    cbBodyFont.addEventListener (Event.CHANGE, changeBodyFont);

    function changeBodyFont(e:Event):void {}

    var bodyFontFrame:String = cbBodyFont.selectedItem.data;

    bodyText_mc.gotoAndStop (bodyFontFrame);

    bodyText_mc.bodyText.gotoAndStop (elementAlignBodyFrame); <--(l'image sélectionnée par fonction d'autres combobox)

    }

    alias "go to the frame (do) that they just took and then send the clip of the child to the frame (alignment) they chose earlier."

    Help? If I'm going about this wrong in the first place, I am open to that, too.

    SWF file attached for Visual reference. (Not everything works yet, but the Type of body section is where I concentrate for the moment).

    Just to avoid any confusion in the timeline (not yours, Flash), I recommend alternating the movieclips bodyText of one layer to another with empty frames between those on the same layer.  Funny things can happen when you have adjacent keyframes of the things, and giving them the same name may be composed the strangeness is at stake.

    If kGlad wants to take action to tackle the rendering event thing, it's OK, but whatever it is, I don't think that it is involved in what I mean.

    All I'm saying is that when you go to a particular frame in the bodyText_mc, you must run this second line of code here and not back where you had it.  If you want to move the command for the bodyText movieclip go to a frame inside the bodyText_mc on the frame where it lands in your first line of code.
