I'm thinking about moving to 3DS Max, and have a question for long-term users. How much does the interface in 3DS Max change with each version? Do long-time users have to spend time searching for the new locations for old controls every time a new version comes out, or has it remained relatively solid?

Â
Is it possible that on the first three presets, I could configure them with an export action that will initiate the next preset export?I export with preset one, which has an export action that starts an export of the same files, using preset 2, until preset 4 which will not have an export action.
After using "edit in" to take an image from LR3 to CS5, I would then save the edited image by "save as" then add -1 for an edited version, -2 for b&w, -3 for a funky edit, etc. (i.e. name-1 or name-2 would be typical file names) They would all save to lightroom. However, since I upgraded to LR4, I can't do that anymore or it doesn't save the image in LR. This has thrown my whole workflow out of whack - especially since I want to use the album module and need those versions of the images for the album.
View 1 Replies View RelatedNot sure if it's a setting I'm missing, a workflow gaffe, or a feature that is simply absent. I would like new/multiple versions of a file to be persistent across multiple collections. It is not inconceivable to have an image in more than one collection; something could be in a Landscape collection, Portfolio collection, Blog Postings, and so forth. Unfortunately, it seems that if I export a file to edit in Photoshop (or any external application) it will only stack with the image in the collection from which it was sent. It will not show in any other collections so they would not include the current version of a file unless manually added.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have no issues when using autocad for simple 2d drafting, layers and commands seem straightforward enough, but I am having real difficulty with the 3d interface when set up with 4 viewports, similar to Rhino (top, front, right and perspective)
Question #1: can I link the viewports so that moving around in 1 moves the other simultaneously to the same zoom and location?
Question #2: can I set up the MButtonPAN (or similar for orbit) command to orbit ONLY when in a perspective viewport? (in rhino, the right mouse button always orbits in a perspective viewport, and pressing shift with right mouse button can pan, ideally this is what I need or some variant of it). It seems very cumbersome to have to use the orbit button every time I want to adjust my perspective view!
Basically I want to make my workflow as similar to Rhino as possible, as it has become deeply engrained, and so far the crossover is not going well.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a C# program to do batch Title Block attribute updates on selected AutoCAD drawings.
What I would like to do is keep the AutoCAD interface hidden, and just display my custom form which would allow the user to select the drawings that they wish to process.
And then the custom program would load each drawing behind the scenes and update the Title Block attributes, but the AutoCAD interface would remain hidden.
Is something like this possible with AutoCAD 2010? Are there any examples doing something like this (showing a custom form at startup, etc.)?
PS We do have newer versions of AutoCAD available if needed. Our engineers use AutoCAD 2010, but we could use a newer version for this standalone tool which would only be used by 1 or 2 people.
Has the grading objects become anymore stable than they are in '09? Unfortunately, our company hasn't been able to upgrade to a newer version and we are beginning to get to the point where 'hand grading' everything is taking too long. I am proficient in using the grading tools, but everytime I do, my drawing becomes corrupt. I want to push us to the newer versions if at all possible.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have been trying unsuccessfully for several days to achieve a stable setup for the attached. This is the closest I have been able to get so far but as you can see if you change the width then the rotation parameter, the stability of the block very quickly breaks down.
The problem seems to be associated with the move action which determines the center point of the angle parameter. It seems to only work properly when you change the width parameter and the rotate handle is in the 180deg. Any other position of the angle parameter results in incorrect alignment of the geometry.
I've used all kinds of programs and recently bit the bullet and got CS4. I wanted to buy a book on it going further in depth with the software, but I keep finding Photoshop 7 books but not on CS4. So my question is whats the difference? everyone I talked to said CS4 is the best but I don't know the difference, from using the program with out really knowing the ins and outs of it I like it. I keep getting the hand of death sometimes but i'm able to get it working right again. so what is the difference between PS 7 and CS4?

From my C# windows forms app, I want to launch AutoCAD 2006 and 2007..This code is working with 2006 :
Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.AcadApplication acadApp = new
Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.AcadApplicationClass();
I'm using references to Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop + .Common version
16.1.63.0.
I want to launch AutoCAD 2007, too. So, I added a reference to AutoCAD 2007.Type Library from COM. And now I'm getting a lot of compiling errors :
Error 448 The type 'Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.AcadApplicationClass' exists in
both 'd:CIMS.NETCimsWinClientinDebugAutodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.dll' and

I've got a few Photoshop actions that I've been using for personal projects, and I'm considering releasing them to the public. I'd like to make them as version compliant as possible, to suit a wider audience.
What I'm wondering is, if I've created actions in CS (PS v8), how far back in versions would the actions work? I've heard some people say version 7, but I couldn't get a definate answer.
I want to make some actions that will be able to work in different versions of PS (I think the 3 that we use are 5, 7, and LE). Don't worry, most of the actions will be select all, copy, paste, save, ect. Simple things that are open in all vers.
(Am I remembering right that LE doesn't have actions?)
Any who, how could I make actions work in all of these different versions? Make the actions in 5 and load them into 7? I would prefer to make them in 7,
if one could run CS2 and CS4 on the same machine without problems. I ask this, because I currently have CS2 and have been researching the possibility of buying CS4. I don't want to do an upgrade, because I want to keep my CS2 around for a while to make sure I get along with CS4.

so I uninstalled max 2012 and installed it again. was a pain to reinstall my scripts and some plugins, but I got the icons back. but the other day, when I restarted my computer, files were associated to max 2009 again! and I didn't even touch 2009 version.

In Photoshop CS6, I can't set my workspace to the way it was in previous versions. I especially need the horizontal toolbar that goes under the top menus. I would use it for paths or gradient options for example.
View 1 Replies View RelatedLet's start with the business of getting titles across. Open the older version (VideoStudio 11, say) and create a project - on the time line of which you put all those titles you've spent hours putting together. Save the project as "DeleteNOW" in your main MyDoc's folder (where it's easy to find), and close VS11.
Open X4, and open the project you just saved. Create a new title folder, then highlight all the titles in the timeline and drag them to the title area above. Bingo.
It works with sounds too, so I assume it'll work with all other libraires, but have as yet to confirm.

View 5 Replies View RelatedIn CorelDraw files, the color palette varies from one artist to another based presumably on the version of Corel. If one artist opens another artists files, some of the color (mostly black) appear as clear/white/invisible. Colors appear normally, however, for the artist to whom the file belongs.This may be also related to an issue with "black boxes". An artist opens an old color separation file or a color separation file created by another artist, and the color separation dialog tab in the print dialog shows multiple check boxes for "undefined" colors. These print out as blank color separations regardless of whether the box is unchecked.If all of the art is selected on the page, cut and pasted to a new page and the old page deleted, the undefined black boxes cease to exist.
