I have recently transfered from 1 PC to another and none of my model directories are the same and I need to apply textures without going 1 by 1 in the material editor. How can I take 20 textures such as eye, skull, shoes and quickly put them on my character?
View 6 Repliesis it possible to drag and drop processing options (in German: Entwicklungseinstellungen) from one picture to another? The usual way by right clicking on the picture and then selecting copy the justifications and then right clicking on another picture and pasting them is very slow.
It would be fantastic if I could just use the spray tool to quickly transfer the options from one picture to a group of others. But this is only possible with presets I first have to save. But many processing options I don't want to save as a preset, because they are not that important. I just want to have a possibility to quickly play around with the options.
Is there any way to quickly apply uniform transparency at a given percentage, without going through the properties bar?

If yes, how do I apply textures on them?
I am unable to apply textures to the maodel I made in inventor.
I tried doing it from the iproperties as well as the top down option we have on the top. Its not working.
Where as, If someone else logs-in in my system, they are able to apply.
I cannot seem to find out when and where it's ocuring. I took measurements of a large room and modeled it in Autocad 2014. The solids I used are rather simple, mostly just boxes with some boolean unions and substractions here and there. I then took pictures of every wall, perspective-corrected them, imported each of them to Autocad as material, assigned the real size to the picture material and applied those materials to the corresponding wall faces. Planar mapping proved to be adequate in all cases and mostly mapped correctly on the first go.
The project was completed and saved. To my horror most of the material mappings had just gone the next time I opened the project. It was just as if I had never applied any material mapping or texture to the faces.
After partially appliying the damned material mappings and materials (textures) again I tried to determine under what circumstances the mappings get lost. Its not allways the same walls. The bug seems to occur randomly on various geometry and at various times. Sometimes the mappings get lost after opening the project, sometimes the get lost on the fly when isolating (hiding) geometry. There is no way I can get the room to look as I want it to look as there will allways be some wall that has become default-grey again, randomly (either while working or after opening up the project again).
I really expect Autocad to be rock solid after so many program versions. Did I do something wrong? How would you go about applying textures of inividual walls to wall-faces? Or is Autocad just crap regarding heavy use of textures because that is not the average use-case?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have to add an object to an exsisting image that has lets say 30-40 layers. In doing so, I have to move the entire image up or down, so I have to link all the layers to move it up or down. I can't merge the layers, because I have to use the same image several ways, so is there a quick way to "link all" layers, move, then "unlink all" layers in Photoshop 7??
I know that Select-All layers doesn't do the trick.
I have a custom brush defined of my signature that I put on my photos. As I want the signature to be subtle so it doesn't detract from the photo, I use a colour that almost blends with the colours in that corner of the photo. The signature is visible, yet it doesn't attract attention.
As examples, the signature would be a shade of green over grass, blue over ocean, grey over asphalt, etc.
Selecting the color to use is trial-and-error, tweaking it several times so it isn't too bright, too dark, or too contrasting with the background. As each photo needs a different colour, this becomes time consuming after hundreds of images.
Is there a tool or other way in PS (either CS2 or CS4) to select a colour like this more quickly? Perhaps one that picks an "average" colour from the area for the signature, and then tunes it a bit brighter or darker so it will show up?
At the moment I an experimenting with using the Eye Dropper, set to 101x101 sample averaging (the largest available). So with the signature brush selected, I Alt-click to get this average colour. But then I still need to make the colour lighter or darker, otherwise the signature blends in too well, almost invisible. Is their a shortcut key way to lighten or darken the selected foreground colour?
Is there a simple, quick way to change a color? I know about fill but but the color I want to change isn't solid, it has a texture and colr variances in it so it looks like lips.
I'm trying to change the lipstick color in "The Sims 2 Body Shop". All I want to do is to quickly change the color while not changing anything else.
I'm working on a healthcare brochure. Several of the images provided show the patient with heavy "tan" lines, the client asked that I remove them...

View 4 Replies View RelatedI made a collection of gradients brushes and shapes as i worked for the past few years, and the collection has grown to such a size that its difficult for me to tell which shapes/grafients etc. are of any use for me, and i dont want to load all of them becouse they just take a lot of space in windows and expand loading time.
is there a way i could view the preset as a graphic file? so for example i click on my "chromegradientsver2" gradients preset file, and a image pops out showing which gradients are in this file? the same with shapes/brushes etc.
I can not seem to save to web and be able to immediately view the image. I have Illustrator CC and as per my Instructor request to save to the web with Illustrator CS6. What happens is the image is not easily available and you have to spend a considerable amount of time trying to locate the image, this is not acceptable.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI conducted 2 surveys on different days and somehow the second survey was off by exactly 0.9 (don't ask because I do not know). With the temperatures being -10C with a very high windchill. I said I would worry about it after the fact once I put it into CAD.

I have the walls that are not running vertical or horizontal (plan view).
How do I quickly find out how much the wall is angled (plan view)? In AutoCAD, you can list the item and has all of the properties shown. But in Revit, in the properties box, the angle is not shown.
How are people importing multiple images into a projects. There must be some smoother way than diddling around with at least 2 dialogs for each image.
How can I batch import or whatever where the resolution and wither to merge or not is answered 1 time? The idea of answering 60 questions to import or drag and drop 30 images seems way unnecessarily cumbersome..
I would like to ask some very simple, but not sure that there is some keyboard combination in Xara Designer Pro.
Basically I have to type a long text, some words with normal default black color characters, and some with blue.
My target would be with some keyboard shortcut maybe quickly change the color to blue and after black and so on, do you have some proposal to this?
Currently I am just typing everything in black and after one by one selecting the words and applying Set Fill Color to make them blue.
possibilities to create water surface in Gimp. I found a simple way that creates the water surface mostly found in 3d games. Further you can create ripples animation using script-fu called water waves.
Follow steps below.
[*] Start with new image of desired dimensions
[*] Go through menus Script-Fu > Render > Lava
a new window will appear, select gradient named Horizon 2 (if you do not have this gradient in list, then download attached file, I do not remember from where I downloaded this file, credit goes to respective author.

I'd like to be able to quickly fit the image to the visible layers -- usually just one layer, in fact. I'm currently doing it by drawing a rough marquee and then correcting it at high magnification before using Fit Canvas to Selection, but there must be a better way! :roll:
It seems there are several ways to search hard coded (overridden) dimensions. However, the FIND command does not locate dimensions that are not overridden.
Example, I want to find all dimensions that are 12'-0". If I 'FIND' 12'-0", it will only locate dimensions that I have forced to 12'-0".
Is there any way that I can quickly locate which files have been exported from LR? I often have to work 2 or 3 sets, and will need to wait for approval from different art directors, product managers, etc. sometimes for days, and I often find myself wondering which was the photo I sent to them- the differences are often very minimal, and by the time they get back to me, I've forgotten them anyway. I know I can flag them, rate them, etc. and obviously I can look at the file in photoshop ( where it has been exported to) but I really would like to know if there is a quick telltale that I can spot in LR.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm struggling with Selection Sets in 2012 Adv..I have a batch fx with 3 Action nodes in it. Each has a lot of stuff so I was hoping to use Selection Sets to quickly pull up the kfs I needed to tweek.
I set up about 4 sets but once I exit and go back in 3 of the sets (the ones in the action node I'm currently working in) have cleared. ie, they're still there but empty. The one set I've defined for the other Action node is ok.
I have tried setting them with 'Define' and with 'Add Selection to'.I think I must be missing one trick here, like not saving correctly?
Due to my familiarity with Inkscape, I did this in Gimp. I chose the Select tool ( R ) and selected several images in one column. I thought, that I would see all the boxed-in layers selected for easy duplication, but nope.
So how can I quickly/easily select a box-full of layers at once, a la Inkscape?
