GIMP :: Creating Preview Message

Oct 7, 2012

When I start the Open Image process in the Windows version of GIMP and move to a directory and select an image file, I get the message "Creating Preview", which briefly changes to "Preview is out of date". This takes a long tim and may never end, depending on the directory and file I choose. What is going on? Is GIMP creating a preview image of every graphic file in the directory? If so, can I set a low resolution somewhere in the program to reduce the time spent doing this. In some cases I can't see the image after I open the file, but that may be a different problem (feature?) of the program.

Lightroom :: Preview Unavailable Message

Apr 3, 2012

I'm new to lightroom and currently have the trial of lightroom 4.  If I attempt to import directly from either my 5D Mark II or my iphone I get only a few images show up, the rest have a "preview unavailable" message.I can upload these through bridge just fine... I would just like to bypass that step.

Lightroom :: Getting A Message - Import Preview Unavailable For This File?

Feb 12, 2013

Suddenly, I am getting the above message, when trying to import RAW files  in LR 4.3.  I tried with two different cards and two different Readers.
 
When I click on Import, I get a blank thumbnail of all the photos with the message in it.  I was able to see the photos in Finder on the Compact Flash card with no problem.
 
I have LR and camera up to date for a while, so nothing different has been done that I know of.

Photoshop :: Error Message When Creating New Document

Nov 2, 2012

I am using Photoshop CS5 on OSX 10.6.8. When I try to create a new file or copy and paste within an open file, I receive this error message: "This is not a valid Portable Document File (PDF) document. It cannot be opened." This does not occur when opening files, only when creating a new document or working within an open document. I have tried deleting preferences and resetting all warning messages but nothing has worked.

Photoshop :: Creating Better Actions For PS [Insert Alert Message]

Jul 7, 2007

I've made actions in Photoshop before but never really anything other than recording my mouse movements & keystrokes.

Many of the actions i download have many more bells & whistles in them.

I'm really looking to have a msgbox pop up saying ...

eg NOW SET HUE/SAT TO REQUIRED SETTINGS
& have the hue & sat setting pop up so they could enter a setting
then the action would continue.

Could anyone offer any links or book reccomendations to help me built more complicated actions please?

Lightroom :: Preview Freezes - App Very Slow To Load While Creating New Previews?

Jul 15, 2013

Preview panel "preview" freezes indefinitely.App very slow to load while creating new previews. (previews take forever to create and update)Wrong previews showing for wrong images when swapping between folders, etc. (ie: all photos, last import, custom collections) This one is a little different...
 
Ratings lost when switching between folders, etc. (ie: all photos, last import, custom collections) This was a clean install that ran beautifully at first. Started noticing this more and more after using the spot tool. (my last step in processing a job)
 
I use separate catalogs per job. Some as small as a few dozen images. (family stuff) Others, as large as 500-600. (engagement and wedding clients)

GIMP :: No Preview Image In OS-X 10.6.8?

Nov 25, 2013

I've looked through the documentation, and searched the forum, and haven't found a clue as to why this is happening. On my Mac Mini, when I use the "Open..." dialogue, I get a list of files. Clicking on one should bring up a preview, as it does on my Windows 7 machine, but on the Mac the preview stays blank. Even if I try to force a preview update. This is with GIMP 2.8.8.

I never had a preview in my old Photoshop--but it'd be nice to get this to work.

GIMP :: See Preview Of The Brush As The Cursor?

Dec 25, 2013

It used to be in Gimp 2.8.8 for Mac I would see the preview of the brush as the cursor so I could judge what the size was going to be now in 2.8.10 Mac (running Mavericks).

I have no preview. Just an cross hair and the brush icon. So I have to blindly guess the size of the brush. Is there a way to get this back?

GIMP :: Filter Preview Not Working?

Apr 6, 2012

Having a problem in Gimp 2.6.11 on Windows 7 x64 system. You can watch the video, linked below, but the basics are: I do a selection, scale the selection, make a new layer out of the floating selection result. I try to run a RGB Noise filter on the new layer and no preview shows in the filter dialog or it doesn't show correctly. If I anchor the floating selection into the original layer, instead of making a new layer out of it, the preview shows correctly. Is this a bug... or?

Here is the video link: [URL]

GIMP :: How To Preview Image Before Export

Jan 15, 2013

When you're working on an image in GIMP, typically there's a bunch of selection and path spam all over the canvas, and checkered patterns for transparency, and all that stuff.

Is there a way to easily see what your image will look like when exported, without exporting it every single time you want to see what the image will look like?

GIMP :: Zoom In On Preview In Any Filter

Aug 12, 2011

Searched three fora: this, General, and <I forget>. I looked for a Developer thread thinking this might already be a requested feature, but did not find one.

When I have a filter window open, most often there is a "preview" window--of fixed size--which I can pan, but not so far not figure out how to zoom to see detail.

I wish I may I wish I might:
- be able to resize the "preview" window
- be able to zoom in to see the effects of the filter better

GIMP :: Automatic Resizing Or Preview File Size For GIF?

Jun 30, 2012

I'll come straight out and admit: yes, my real problem here is my laziness but, ignoring that, the 'problem' I have is getting so tired of and annoyed with the whole trial & error schtick that comes with saving animated gifs (scale image, save, check file size, repeat to first step until file size is finally desirable).

Two possible solutions come to mind, one I admit is probably quite unrealistic but I would think the other has a good chance of existing.

First, the unrealistic solution possibility. Is there a plugin or anything else where I can input a file size and it could calculate the exact (or close to exact) scale I would need to resize to if I want the gif to be around that file size? (i.e. "For this gif to be 879kb your best bet would (probably) be 515 x 283")

Now then, the more realistic (or at least I think it is) solution possibility. What about being able to preview a file size of an animated gif before saving? (i.e. "If you save this 400 x 226 gif it will most likely be '(insert byte size here)'kb")

Downloaded Gimp last night, and when I opened up to view the images, I see only a list, not thumbnails. Gotta have thumbnails to see what exactly I'm looking at, regardless whether the images are named or numbered. don't Gimp have that option to change the viewing mode, like Windows?

I have Windows 7 (64 bit).

GIMP :: Creating Highlighter Pen Effect?

Sep 17, 2012

Stage 1: I wish to mark up an existing image with transparent, highlighter-like markings. I've come close with paths, stroking with brush, and applying a gradient map (with alpha adjustment), but I would like to get the density of the coloring to vary and I haven't been able to find a combination of brush and gradient adjustment that will accomplish this in a visible way. Specifically, I would like the center of the broad line more transparent and the edges less so.

Am I using the best approach?

Stage 2: Carrying Stage 1 a bit further, I would like the edges of the broad line to be discontinuously more intense than the center, so that they appear as edges. This seems like a gradient map function on the line left by the brush (standard fuzzy, (19)(21x21)) but again, I haven't found a gradient that will do it. I've tried splitting the map, etc, but I may just lack the experience. Or this might be the wrong approach altogether.
