Why is there blue outlines by selecting all at once?

I just started using AE and use a tutorial to start the animation of an Illustrator file. I did my composition and transforms vectors forms, but when I click or hover or even choose one group, each move has blue lines in layers above it. Which makes it difficult to see what I'm doing and much more difficult to select and group my items. All suggestions are welcome, thanks!

Unless you use the animators of the form there is no reason to change an Illustrator layer imported to a shape layer. None. In many cases to a shape layer is a distinct disadvantage. For example, an Illustrator file filled with a gradient will lose this gradient. It would be useful to know what tutorial you are looking at. It wouldn't be inaccurate or pessimistic to say that most of those you will find on YouTube to teach the techniques of weak and ineffective. Some are simply not true.

If you click on the color of the layer in the timeline panel, you can change the color of the outline of the shape path. If you do not want to see the layer handles so you can use the view menu to hide the controls of the layer (Ctrl/Cmnd + shift + h) but makes it difficult to understand what you have selected. If you work with masks and not shape layers so that you can choose the colors to Cycle in the preferences panel mask make several masks on a layer that is easier to handle.

The most important thing to learn about the use of After Effects is to know how to set up your project and your source files. I see more than 90% of my Illustrator to AE projects so that everything I want to animate is on a separate layer of Illustrator and it's default or final resting place on a working illustrator plan which is usually the same size as the computer on which I intend to work. There are other things to consider when designing for video in Illustrator. For example you don't have what it takes a lot of traits of point on your layers because they do not have to translate with clean lines, the conversion to the pixels in the video. You should have all the little details that are aligned to the pixel grid in artificial intelligence and for certain types of items, it is important to ensure that the size of the element is a number pair pixels (points) up and wide, so that these elements line up precisely with the pixel grid. There is much more to the design for the video to throw a few things on the artboard and then try to sort them in AE.

    If you have a keyboard connected, you can click a message and press the CTRL + a shortcut to select all before using the button Delete. Unfortunately, there is no way to accomplish this task using the key.

  • How to select all the text with QNX TextInput

    With QNX TextInput, is there a way to select all the text? Spark TextInput a selectAll() method to select all text, but I do not see a similar method in QNX TextInput. No idea how you can choose all the texts with QNX TextInput. Thank you.

    Hey French,.

    Thanks for the clarification! I think I can help you. Here is a code example to show my explanation. In the code below when a user clicks the LabelButton object it will assign the focus to your TextInput object and then select all the text in this object. The only downside is that it will not bring the keyboard. so far, we are not successfully by invoking the keyboard without the user clicking on the TextInput. in any case in the code below, we use TextInput property the textField object as a reference to the TextField object internal. from there, we use the setSelection() method to select the text inside the object from the start to the end position pos. Here's the same code:

    package
    {
        import flash.display.Sprite;
        import flash.display.StageAlign;
        import flash.display.StageScaleMode;
        import flash.events.FocusEvent;
        import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    
        import qnx.ui.buttons.LabelButton;
        import qnx.ui.text.TextInput;
    
        [SWF(width="1024",height="600",backgroundColor="#CCCCCC",frameRate="30")]
        public class TextInputTest extends Sprite
        {
    
            private var myInput:TextInput;
    
            public function TextInputTest()
            {
                super();
    
                // support autoOrients
                stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
                stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
    
                myInput = new TextInput();
                myInput.setSize(300,50);
    
                addChild(myInput);          
    
                var newBtn:LabelButton = new LabelButton();
                newBtn.label = "Click Me";
                newBtn.setPosition(325, 0);
    
                newBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, selectMyText);
    
                addChild(newBtn);
    
            }
            private function selectMyText(e:MouseEvent):void
            {
                stage.focus = myInput;
                myInput.textField.setSelection(0, myInput.textField.length);
            }
        }
    }
    

    hope it's what you want. Good luck!

  • in firefox 3,604 rather than the set up functions are available except for select all, why?

    Hallo all

    I am using Fireefox 3.6 04 on a win7 64byte laptop.
    

    I would like to organize some of my favorites into folders, but 'organize' options are all greyed out except "select all" and "copy".
    Does anyone have any ideas why this would be. The only references I've found so far relate to Apple operating systems
    and I thought that for once, I was really going to organize! Any ideas appreciated with thanks and Happy Easter to everyone anyway.

    You can only hold individual folders and bookmarks and not three folder root which show in the screenshot.
    You must open one of the folders to move bookmarks in this folder to another folder.

    There are three main folders of bookmarks and bookmarks can be created only in one of these folders and its subfolders.

    • The folder "Personal bar" stores the bookmarks that you see in the bookmarks toolbar (Firefox > Options or view > toolbars).
    • "Bookmarks Menu" file stores the bookmarks that display in the bookmarks menu and are created through ' bookmarks > bookmark this Page "or" bookmark this link "in the context menu.
    • The "Unsorted Bookmarks" folder stores created bookmarks by clicking on the star on the right end of the address bar.
  • Why is there a password for all your firefox settings?

    I'm sick and tired of my firefox browser attacked do and changing my 'new tab' url, my url of the home page and what I put on my browser. I understand the password to connect to websites, but why are there no admin password to change settings. If you have an admin password, which are required to change a setting, then this browser would be much safer and a lot less problems. Please add an option or an addon to get an admin password, which replaces all the rest, and will ONLY allow changes to any parameter in its use.

    Have you provided feedback for Firefox?

    There is very little, except make a Bugzilla report asking for improvement, support contributors here can do about adding a feature like this in Firefox.

  • Until a few days ago I was able to print a PDF from Acrobat Reader ms in Windows 7.  Now I get "the document could not be printed."  The next panel says "there are no pages selected to print," even if all the pages have been selected.  Thoughts?

    Until a few days ago I was able to print a PDF from Acrobat Reader ms in Windows 7.  Now I get "the document could not be printed."  The next panel says "there are no pages selected to print," even if all the pages have been selected.  I've uninstalled Reader and reinstalled, but the problem remains.  I also tried to repair the installation and that doesn't work anymore.

    Thanks for the tip.  It turned out that kind Reader has been commissioning in protected mode.  I changed the setting and it prints now as before.

  • Why are there no sound when the selection of input/output points ingest miniature?

    During the ingestion of video from an SD card, why is there no audio when you choose an entry/exit point before transcoding? Sometimes there is a specific sound bite to ingest a clip rather than the whole thing or try to guess where the sound bite begins or ends.

    Hi Tommy,.

    During the ingestion of video from an SD card, why is there no audio when you choose an entry/exit point before transcoding? Sometimes there is a specific sound bite to ingest a clip rather than the whole thing or try to guess where the sound bite begins or ends.

    That should work well. I just test it. Make sure that you have copied all the SD card before you start eating, not only the clips.

  • In CC, why can I no longer use select/Modify/contract after selecting all?

    I using CS3 and I am now on CC.
    I tried to use the border option then the opposite, but it is a stopgap.

    Alternative suggestions or solutions?
    Thank you very much.

    This was the address in the past.  You can solve this problem by using other methods.  Select all, Selet > transform selection. or add a blank layer STROKE select it all internal selection the number of pixels you want to contract the selection.  Select the transparency of the layer outline, then invert the selection.

    I just want to empty my deleted file e-mail with a single click.
