Photoshop :: Scanning - Multiple Parts Into One; Using One Setting
Jun 25, 2004
I have a map that I had to scan in 8 parts.
Not all 8 parts came out the same so when I merge them, the parts are obvious.
I once saw a tut where by all photos used the same setting so that onced merged, you can't tell the difference.
What I need is the how-to. I'm so used to dealing with single photos that I can't remember how to save the right setting. I've tried a few things, but when I merged the map, it didn't all look seamless nor the same.
I recently learned of what sounded like a wonderful Elements feature: Scan as many photos as you can fit on your scanner bed and Elements will divide the scan into individual photos. The key was to use the "Divide Scanned Photos" command on the Image menu. Sounds great, but that command is always grayed out. How come? And is there some way for me to make the command work?
How can I scan multiple photos on my HP Photosmart 7520 scanner into Photoshop Elements 11 without scanning them one by one. I want to place multiple photos on the scanner and have the software select the multiple images and place them in separate files for processing.
Okay so i saw a video on how to set up iMate for Vex Robotic parts (circle and square fitting), and i cant get the circle to do a surface extruding. Any reason whats going on? I followed the video's instructions perfectly, and still nothing is working. URL...
I use GIMP for a number of purposes, including general image editing, drawing and pixel art.
I'd like to be able to set up profiles for different hotkeys, default windows/window positions/brush settings, etc., but so far as I can find the only way to do this is to either replace/edit the settings files when loading up a different profile or changing its directory settings, neither of which is very convenient, nor am I sure if either is even sufficient.
How do i cut out multiple parts of an image for example if i want to isolate a tree from the background and cut out the gaps in the foliage as well as the outline.
I have been using refine edge and the quick select tool and getting great results, its creates a layer each time but i cant work out how to show all the cut outs i can only seem to see one at a time instead of all the transparent background, i assume its something to do with layers and masking perhaps.
question regarding selecting multple parts of an image.
I have a landscape picture that I want to divide up into 5 parts.
I have managed to achieve the effect by using Image Ready and creating 5 seperate slices, then selecting these 5 slices, converting them to a selection, the cutting and pasting the selection to a new file. The trouble with doing this is that I have to create the slices every time for a new picture, and as I will be doing this type of work a lot, I would like to be able to call up the same selection or mask every time I work on a similar picture.
Is there a way I can save the selection mask, or slices, then recall them and apply it to the picture.
Setting the label size for multiple thematic rules, I couldn’t figure out how the label size can be set for multiple thematic rules in one go (attached).
I have imported a number of raster images into a drawing and wish to turn the "blank" bits transparent. I can set them all to "Background transparency = YES" in the Properties bar, but as far as I can see I need to go through each one individually to set the relevant transparency color, since as soon as I select more than one tile the "Transparency color" tab disappears.
Is there a way to do a multiple select as the "blank" color is the same for all the tiles? I'm planning to use a lot of tiles and this will be incredibly laborious and inefficient otherwise. I am using Map 3D 2011.
I want to turn on 'constant shape' parameter in gmask and i want to do it for multiple spline. How can i do that ? How to select multiple spline in viewer ? Also, i tried to pick multiple spline using animation editor but when turn 'on' the 'constant shape' , it only apply to single spline.
Trying to animate a rigged model for a class project but I'm running into problems. If I, for example, pick the joint at the top of the hierarchy, in the main view it appears as though everything gets selected. When I try to set a keyframe for the whole model, though, it only gets set on the actual joint I picked, none of the ones below it.
I looked at things via Outliner and see the same problem: I pick a joint there but the ones below it show as unselected in the Outliner window. Right now it appears the only way I can select multiple joints to set a keyframe on them all is to manually expand the tree in Outliner and then explicitly pick each one with command-click or shift-click. If I select an un-expanded joint section in the tree the hidden joints do not get selected, and if I expand the tree and pick a root node the ones below it are not selected.
I have tried this on three different models, including one I rigged myself, and the same behavior is present across all three.
Is this normal behavior for Maya animation? Is there some configuration setting that will change this so I can select an entire skeleton tree via the root node and have all of them accept a keyframe?
I'm running Maya 2011 for the Mac, on OS X Lion, with service pack 1 installed.
I guess it does NOT support it because it seems that it does NOT work properly. For example, in case of multiple lines of “Horizontal” setting, it works properly like followings. But in case of multiple lines of “Vertical” setting, it does NOT work properly like followings.
Configure of “Horizontal”: ABC DEF GHI
Configure of “Vertical”: ABC DEF GHI
In my perspective, it should go downward like followings.
In my “perspective” of Vertical”: A B C
D E F
G H I
We are making application software for importing DXF file from AutoCAD. If AutoCAD does not support multiple lines of vertical setting on mtex, our software also should not support it, I think. I want to know the specification for multiple lines of vertical setting of AutoCAD.
attached is a picture with blue flowers. In PS, i would select a portion of the flower at a time and create a new adjustment colorize layer to color the selection. So in the end i had roughly 6 or 7 layers and each one was a differnt color. ill upload the final result as well.
I have a issue merging multiple parts into one assembly. When i do the constrains the parts are able to move but the pieces break part. I need to be able to move the whole assembly with all parts together without them breaking apart.
I have an insert that I'd like to split into several layers. Is it possible to do this with the split tool, or is it limited to only one "split tool" at a time?
In the picture, the wireframe is the 'insert', the letters indicative of cavities cut into the insert. The purple sketch lines would be typical of where the solid part would be split into multiple parts.
I have an i Assembly with 7 distinct members. I have a parts list displayed next to each member. I had no problem getting the views to align, but am running into a wall with getting the Parts Lists aligned (other than just eyeballing it).
I design rubber molds. So, you have a cap, base, inserts, end plates... yadda yadda. Sometimes we use different configurations of a mold to make slightly different parts. For example, say by default, the "-1" configuration will be basically just the cap and base, to create a 6" part. Then, we might have a "-2" configuration with a 1" spacer insert to create a 5" part. What I want, is a parts list to automatically pull in the quantities for the different configurations in separate columns of the parts list. I'm wondering if there is a way to do this using different Level of Details.
One solution I've contemplated is creating the parts list from the "default" assy, then creating a "parts list" of the alternate assembly, but stripping off all but the quantity column... but that doesn't seem horribly elegant, and I'm not sure I can resolve all parts list rows without pegging in some dummy "custom parts".... dunno.
What I have is 4 bolts that I want to mate the underside of the head on all four to one surface. Is there a way to do this in one operation? Like a dynamic mate.
One plate surface with all four head surfaces mating to it in one operation.
Lets say we have a plate with 100 randomly placed holes on it and 100 parts to attach to those holes. The parts aren't content center parts so they can't inserted in an easy fashion and the random hole spacing makes component pattern useless. The parts would normally be constrained using the insert command and you'd have to do all 100 separately. Would it be possible to make a script that would let you select the 100 parts then choose the selected geometry on one part and then a hole on the plate. It would apply that insert constraint and automatically select the same geometry on another part so you could simply select another hole. Then rinse and repeat until all the parts have been constrained to holes on the plate.
If something like that is possible it'd cut down the number of clicks greatly and also panning/rotating to select the different parts and holes on the plate. This isn't a daily thing we'd be doing, but it comes up enough in large assemblies it could be very useful. I haven't done any scripting for things inside parts/assemblies so I don't know what's possible while scripting.
I have a large assembly model made of many different parts. The last thing I want to do is "paint" it so I can make a drawing showing the different colors being used. My plan is to take the entire assembly and insert it into another assembly then just change the parts to the specific colors. I was wondering if there was a way to change the colors on multiple parts at once. Right now I right click the part go to iproperties and then go to occurence and choose the specific color. I know from using Solidworks that it works the opposite you click the color first and then all the parts that you want to be that color. It works out a lot quicker. If I select multiple parts the occurence tab in the properties is greyed out.
Is there a way to do dynamic mating? Meaning if you have more then one part that needs to have the same surface on each part mated to one surface on another part?
Any way to create a parametric Parts List containing subassemblies, where the subs are listed, by name/item number, in colum format, and qty's are tabulated accross rows. (see attached as an example). If the same part number occurs in multiple subs, the part is only listed once, but the quantity for each sub would be noted. The pdf attached had to be done manually, which somewhat defeats the purpose of having software like Inventor.
I have a part which has 2 solid bodies in it which were created using the extrude command. When setting the iProperties for this part I get the material properties applied to both solids. Is it possible to set a material for each solid so that they will be listed separately under iProps ? I suspect this can't be done in which case how would I go about separating the solid bodies ?

We use simple line drawings of parts. Some of these parts are used in multiple products, however if a change is made to a drawing it has to be replaced in all the other locations
I have tried to get them to go to 3d modeling and xref in the parts but apparently that is not acceptable , since there is no master assembly, but instead folders of dwgs is there an easier way of managing this?
Is there a way to change an iProperty, specifically the iProperties->Project->Project field for multiple parts automatically.
I use the iLogic Design Copy Tool to copy over an entire project, and for the most part the only changes is the project number.
I didn't see a way to change this in the Design Copy Tool, possibly there is some other tools that can do this that I don't know about. But if not, I am assuming a small script (VBA??) would be required to do this? whether it is in Inventor or just an outside program to carry out this change.
I found this old thread, but it seems that people just found another way to do this?
[URL]
My workflow would follow something like this:
-Use iLogic Design Copy Tool to copy over project to new folder
-Open up full assembly
-Run rule or script to update all parts in assembly with new Project iProperty
-Save
-update the drawings as I need, (they will all need to be reviewed as some parts will be modified anyways)
I have an assembly drawing .IDW with more than 50 instances of an O-ring (same ipt.). Is it possible to edit the hatching of the O-ring and all 50 will update without having to edit each individually. ?
I'm trying to move a bunch of unconstrained parts in an assembly. I want them to stay the same distance relative to each other so I want to move them all at once as a whole group. As the above thread states, when I use CTRL + left mouse button and select the desired parts, only one of the parts will move.
I'm trying to assemble two parts, each of which has four matching bolt holes.So I do a "mate" between a hole on one and a hole on the other. This works fine, and the parts now behave just like two parts bolted together with one bolt - one can be rotated relative to the other around the bolt hole. So there is one degree of freedom left to be constrained.
But the obvious ways to constrain that one last rotational constraint result in overconstraint. Trying a "mate" between the circles at the ends of the corresponding bolt holes breaks the first constraint, and the non-grounded object "jumps". Trying to auto-mate the two holes results in the holes being constrained as tangent, with the holes not lined up. I've tried constraining the center points of the end circles of the holes. That doesn't work right either.
Doing the second constraint as "tangent-inside" does work. That's a 1 DOF constraint, which makes sense.It took me a while to figure that out. The help files aren't very useful when multiple constraints are involved.
