GIMP :: 2.8 Export After Save As Keeps Old Files Name
Sep 19, 2012
when i open a new file and export it with ctrl+e, the gimp 2.8 exports the file with the current file name as expected but after i save (with save as) file with a new file name, ctrl+e exports the new file with the old file name, and i think it has to be changed, because it is an absolutely new file and it is senseless to keep the old file name for exporting the new file..
While "Draw" of Coreldraw X5 is working well, Corel Photopaint X5 does not "Save", "Save as..." or "Export" files. It just does nothing, when I choose to save a file under "something.cpt". It works, as long as it is a JPG, but not as a CPT. I am working on a Win7, with CorelX5 in german. Support told me to reinstall.
I only recently upgraded to 2.8 from 2.6 and was wondering if I am the onlyone missing the option to edit the file extension in the SAVE formwhich basically allowed you to Save, Save Copy, Save As or Export to anyformat from the same form?
I also found it strange that if I now open a JPG file (or drag into GIMP),I can't save changes (to the JPG) directly (it wants to save to native Gimpformat), so I again first have to go to Export instead!
I am wondering why this was incorporated, and if it's going to stay, is there a setting I can set to work like I am used to (and find much fasterand more flexible)?
I cannot save or export an image from GIMP 2.8 at all. No matter where the mouse pointer is on the save/export window only a caret is displayed and not a cursor. The exception to this is when I hover over the vertical slider in the directory pane and I am able to move the slider on left click and drag. When I was using 2.8.2 (see below) and attempted this operation the cursor changed to an icon resembling a text document. The icon does not appear in 2.8.6
The problem has only occurred in the last 10 days. It first happened to me about a week ago. At that time I was using GIMP 2.8.2. Today I uninstalled this version and installed 2.8.6 with no improvement. I also tried deleting the .GIMP2.8 directory (as recommended elsewhere in this forum) with both versions but to no avail. As implied I have used GIMP (for more than 18 months) without a problem until the last week and a bit.
I adjust lots and lots of pix for our ebay auctions. Many items have at least 5 pix so they have the same file name but with a 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. at the end of the file name to distinguish them from each other. Example: eapgcompote1.jpg , eapgcompote2.jpg etc..
The problem that I have with Gimp is every time I save/ export a pic Gimp does not save the last export location and last modified date nor does Gimp offer the ability to select from previously saved items like in PhotoShop. I have to go thru about 5 steps in order to save each pic.
I noted a bug in GIMP 2.8. In the window Save as the dimension of the image is fixed at 1,3Gbyte even if the image is a few kbyte or you modify the quality.Here is the window: [URL]
I am working with a client that used Corel VideoStudio X4 and we need to export/save her files for her website. We know we want to use FLV files but so far we're not getting them compressed enough. the "best practices" for FLV file creation & compression within X4? Are we able to select different codecs to try?
In Illustrator CS5, how can I save or export a set of Artboards in a given .ai file to separate SVG files?
The 'Use Artboards' feature is on the Save As... dialog but it's disabled. It looks like there was an extension (Illustrator HTML5 Pack for CS5) available at one time but its appears to have been removed from Adobe's site.
I have 9 separate files/folders of images on my drive in LR . I want to save (export) the images to one CD, keeping the images in the 9 separate files as named in the hard drive. How do I do this?
I've been using Gimp 2.6 for some months now and beginning to get to grips with it. I load photos into Picasa and then process jpegs with Gimp. Upgraded to 2.8.0 a few days ago and hit a problem.
Using the new 2.8 system to to 'export' out to a jpeg file, when I go back to Picasa and make any change at all, which then needs a 'save' I get a Windows error message: "Unable to save all files due to a disk error. The disk may be full or read only".Files not Gimp 2.8 processed are fine.
2.6 no problem - 2.8 problem. I don't think it will be Gimp bug, but there is an associated change which has 'upset' my computer.
it is a lot of time that I noted that if I convert a RAW file from my Canon camera in TIFF and then I post elaborate it with GIMP, I obtain a file without EXIF. No problem whan I convert the RAW file in jpeg.
note for instance this jpeg file obtained from a TIFF file with GIMP: [URL]
Why my photoshop CS6 64 bit in windows 8 can't SAVE and SAVE AS any files?
it's ok for my Photoshop cs6 32bit,but there is not reaction when i use command file->save or file->save as ,also CTRL +S and SHIF +CTRL+S in Photoshop 64 bit
I'm running Photoshop CC 14.1.2 on Mac (OSX 10.8.5) and whenever I use "Save As…" Photoshop marks the original file as edited and asks me to save it again before I close it - even if I have not made any changes before or after using "Save as…". This behavior is breaking some of my actions and bothering me quite a bit.
If I run the action on one file, it works perfect. If I try to run it as a batch, it creates the bmp files fine. But it also creates either a .ai file, or two .eps files!
Writing one or two extra files signifiantly shows the process down.
After I run the batch it is not hard to simply delete the extra .eps/ai files of course.
But writing those files seriously slows the process down, and I have about 89,000 more files to go.
When I try to export retouched files to hard drive files my Mac crashes and has to be force quitted. I thought this maybe a L'room 4 problem so I bought L'room 5 and it's still happening. What can I do?
I have just recently installed AutoCAD LT 2014 on Windows 7 (Running on an intel iMac through Bootcamp). Ever since then i am receiving notifications when performing a save.
AutoCAD is telling me it cannot perform the save and is creating a .tmp file in the same location on the server as the file should be.
this is causing major performance issues and happens almost every second time I attempt to perform a save. The issue is that we are getting multiple versions of the same file duplicating on the file server which is very quickly going to cause capacity issues considering most files are 2-4mb in size.
since a month, when i try to save a job in adobe illustrator cs 5, it appears "unknowned error" (italian version) and i can't save my job! i tried to save as pdf, as ai, to export as a jpg, nothing is possible!

When trying to export RAW files to TIF files I get following Warning message:
Unable to Export:
An internal error has occured: Win32 API error 2 ("The system cannot find the file specified.") when calling ShellExecuteExW from AgWorkspace.shellExecute.
This happpens in LR 4 and I never had this problem in previuos version.
and the same for each base layer + each variation layer. What is the most efficient way to do that in Photoshop CS5? (And I need to repeat this task for the rest of my 200 .psd images!)
i need to export my works to psb format because i got some works like huge billboards or city maps that i want to have their raster as actual - full size .
usually i need to export them to parts of 30000px tif or jpg or other bitmaps and then assemble them in photoshop
know of a way to take a polyline shape (brought in from another program) and save or export it to a dxf at the same time as it being simplified and made "nice" (for want of a better word) so that the cutter doesn't stop every 2mm with the excess vertices?
I've heard of programs like Flexisign which can take a dxf, clean it all up whilst keeping the shape and then export as dxf in a nice polyline. Can You do anything similar with autocad? Seems like one of the front runner programs used for creating geometry for cutting should provide such a service surely?
When saving for web or exporting an artboard is there any way to pre-populate the save file name dialog box with the artboard's given name. It would save having to re-name the file and make good use of that metadata.
Currently running on MAC OS Mountain Lion. Illustrator CS6, Creative Cloud Download - Up-to-date
Tested using a small file size and art board, and both save for devices and exporting just gives a loading wheel with no results (let it go for 2 hours before restarting). We have tried reinstalling program with no change in results. The process works fine with the same creative cloud account on a Mac running Lion.
When I export a photo from lightroom to photoshop, work on it and click control/s it saves the file back into lightroom, but then I have to save it again to close photoshop or I get a dialog. Why am I having to save twice in a row when nothing has changed the document? Windows 7 photoshop cc lightroom 5.2.2
