AutoDesk Smoke :: Text Editor / Color Selector

Jun 13, 2012

a) is it possible to change the default font that gets activated for a project or sequence? Every time we add a title it defaults to "Discreet" - it would be good if it learns from past changes at least for the sequence.

b) it would be good if the default font color changes to a color that contrasts with the background when starting to type. E.g. we had a rather white scene, started typing and no text ever showed up. I then had to go back to the full text editor, change the color etc.

c) moving the color sliders in the color selector manually without a Wacom seems to slow by default. It takes forever to move to a brighter color. And using the picker is cumbersome (we do that as a work-around instead of moving the slider). The OK button for the color sliders is not very visible, sometimes leading to us clicking away without saving the newly selected color by accident.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Timeline Editor Scroll Bars?

Jun 13, 2012

The horizontal scroll bar has +/- to zoom in, but I'm missing a similar +/- for the vertical bar. That might be really handy. Maybe there's short keys, but doesn't seem obvious why it's not there. Horizontal zooming we need more frequently.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Channel Editor Full Screen - Where To Click

Oct 31, 2013

What exactly should I click  to view Channel editor full screen or in a resizable view port?
 
Currently it is displayed at the bottom put of the UI only and it is not possible to do anything on such a small view of the editor....
 
Brian Mulligan wrote in this blog:"If you hold SHIFT and double-click in a numeric field that has a keyframe set, then the Channel Editor will open up full screen at the top of the UI and switch to 1 up view. The numeric field you clicked on will be highlighted and framed."
 
Where is "numeric field that has a keyframe set"  actually located?
 
When I shift and double-click on the numeric field in  "Channel hierarchy" (on the left of the Animation curve window)  a CALCULATOR pops up.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Color Picker - Why There's No Color Wheel

Nov 17, 2012

what is still missing in smoke is having the color wheel while picking a color. The color wheel will enable us to pick any color straight from the wheel , it's much faster rather than trying to mix the desired color using RGB combination. it will be cool to see this feature in next release.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Difference Between Text From Soft Fx And Text In Action

Mar 21, 2012

Why is there a difference between the text from the soft fx and the text in action? If you look at the attached picture, the 3 lines look slightly different although they shouldn't. The first line was written inside the soft fx.

The second line, with an ugly outline, is the 3D text, and although it's the same font, it looks thinner here.
And the third line, which I think looks a little too soft, is with AA turned on in action.

So why can't I achieve the same look in action, as in the text soft fx?

AutoDesk Smoke :: Color Correcting Highlights

Feb 28, 2012

Is it possible to just simply work with the highlights in a shot (for example boosting the gain), without having to work with selective, or masks, and without changing the color? Cause there is the 'wheel' for highlights, but as soon, as you turn it in one direction, you start to change the color.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Color Source To Timeline?

Feb 13, 2013

In 2012 it was very easy to select a gap segment and click color source in the soft effects. In 2013 it appears to be much more difficult, you need to create it in a folder then edit it into a sequence. Am I missing something? I wish there was a color source option in the effects ribbon.

AutoDesk Smoke :: 3D Text Reflection

Apr 24, 2013

I have composed a scene in action that contains 3d text with a reflection layer. I animated the reflection to keep the part of the image that I want to appear on the letters in view. Everything looks ok when I step through in action or click preview, but comes out wrong when I render.

It looks like there may be some sort of timing issue, so I've checked for slip and TW problems and found none. I've also checked for transitions on other axes that might cause a problem and see none. Is this a bug?

Photoshop :: Getting My Color Selector Back The Way It Was

Oct 31, 2008

I recently had to reformat my hard drive and when I reinstalled Photoshop CS, I found that when I put text into a graphic, I can no longer pick the color from any color on the Photoshop interface nor can I put the color number in. There is only a box where I can guess on the color approximately.

I have looked and looked for whatever I did to get access to the Pantone colors. This is a for instance: I am making a graphic for a web page. I have a photo or something in the photo that has the color I want to use in the text. I put the text on the graphic click on the text color box to change the color and find I have no ink dropper to get the color. Nor is there anywhere to put the color number in as there was before. I have not had to reformat my hard drive before and so it has been a long time since I set my software up. I am getting panicky because I have work that really needs everything to work correctly. I also can't access the Pantone color palettes. I want that all accessible from the fill option. In other words select all, then click fill then allow me to click on color and put the color number in manually as well.
