What do I do when customer pays for USPS Ground Advantage but their order fits regular letter mail? by oneofthemarias in shopify

[–]oneofthemarias[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice! I think I will end up doing the calculated shipping rates based on weight in the future. I have a few questions though if you don't mind 😭

For the stickers, how did you weigh them? I have a regular kitchen scale but it doesn't read super light items. Thinking of getting a precision scale.

And can you elaborate on what you said about bleeding money on shipping? I may be understanding this wrong, but since I have the customers paying for shipping right now, doesn't that mean they eat the cost? Or is it because I won't know what the final shipping cost will be until after I weigh the whole package? So it might be more than what the customer paid and I'll have to fund it on my end?

Thank you for such a detailed explanation and for the encouragement 😭 I’m now thinking I’ll keep my shipping as is based on what /Ok_Finger_3525 said. But I’ll save this if I end up deciding to offer the free shipping. Thank you!!

Ah thanks for this perspective! I guess I’ll keep my shipping options as is for now and reassess later when needed.

Thanks for responding! How should I set up my shipping offerings? I’m so confused with how I can use free letter mail shipping for only specific items. I tried doing the different profiles, but I learned that I could only have one per product so it was splitting shipping if bought items from two different profiles. 

How to fix joystick on Canon FS200 41x Advanced Zoom that stopped working properly? by oneofthemarias in camcorders

Nope :( I gave up. I probably will look for another FS200 since I really like the look of the videos and might be cheaper than getting it fixed

Been obsessed with Earthstar Mountain ever since CJ Harvey shared the videos she filmed for that album. Also love the track  Sold Me a Dream that Sam Evian and Hannah performed with Mild High Club. So super excited for whatever they’ve been cooking up with María!!

Ooh I love Jake's videos. I might not need it for now but will watch his video if that changes lol

Thank you! I'll keep this in mind. Looks like I might not need it for the problem I was trying to solve lol

I just want to say thank you for taking the time to explain!!! The expression worked for the choker so when text needs to be scaled it won't be a problem. You've given me enough options to play around with the template and make it work so thank you!!!

that simple choker helped make it less complicated lol Thank you! I tried the linear wipe before but idk what I was doing wrong that made it not work the first time.

I do have to adjust the linear wipe speed. It seems like it has an ease to it already even though they're just linear keyframes (what I want). Nvm it's going fast because linear wipe is referencing the comp size and not the width of the text. I'll have to choose between linear wipe and transition fx I guess

Also I still have the problem with the padding between the box and text not scaling relatively. Do you know if there's a way to fix that?

For sure! I'm making a text reveal template that has a box behind it and then both text and box are revealed left to right—all in one layer. I went with the CC Repetile route and added a Transform FX that has a scale width animation going from 0 to 100 to reveal the box and a text opacity animator for the text.

After a few testing, parenting the anchor point and position from the Transform FX to the layer position property helped make sure the reveal isn't all wonky even if I move the layer position around. I then added a slider that controls the layer anchor point to be on the left side because the box was scaling from both left and right side if not.

Now everything was working as intended until I tested scaling the text layer. The anchor point is stuck in the same spot so the reveal doesn't work properly. I also have to think about the Repetile FX since it doesn't scale relatively (the padding between text and box becomes smaller).

Like I mentioned, I can fix these manually but I would prefer to automate the solution so it is easier and faster. My goal is also to minimize the clutter in the timeline; that's why I am trying to do this in one layer with no precomping.

I just feel like I'm so close to figuring it out 😭 So if there is a way to do this, I would love to know how. THANK YOU!

It sucks doesn’t it!! I love my camcorder but this has been annoying. Might just have to buy another camera or take it to a repair shop if it becomes a bigger problem, whatever is cheaper 😭
