i only saved a png version of the file (no xcf or any file with history).if you click on this link you can see the before (top) and after (bottom) versions of the logo: URL....
What filter (or combination of filters it may have been?)
I have a capstone lab project due tomorrow for my graphic arts class and I made a HUGE mistake!!! I created an image using 20 something layers and did SAVE AS as a .xcf image (with all layers open). Part of the project was to save in different formats: .xcf (with open layers), a .png, and a .jpeg (optimized). So, I did the first save and then flattened the image to SAVE AS a .png with a different file name.
Long story short, I was tired and had way too many images open at once. When I was closing all of the images I accidentally saved the changes (flatten image) to my original .xcf (with open layers)!!!! Now, my .xcf that is supposed to have open layers only has one layer...the finished project!! I tried going to the file properties to restore a previous version, but it says that no previous versions were found! I also downloaded a norton "unerase" utility, but maybe I am not scanning properly to locate the file!?!
One of our users, lets call him USER1, has recently received the following message when attempting to save an assembly:
"A later version of this file has been saved by USER1. Saving the file would overwrite changes which is not allowed. If you wish to preserve your changes, use the Save Copy As command."
To get to this error message, our user opens an IDW, then the IAM linked to that drawing. Changes made in the IAM are changing bolt lengths, adding fasteners from content center, things like that. After saving inside the IAM this message appears. There are multiple users on our network; but only this user is working the assembly in question when the message appears?
what makes this message appear, and how it can be avoided?
When I edit a picture and save the result (using either "save" or "save as" and making sure there are ticks in "Save in Elements Organiser" and "Save in version set with original"), the edited copy is often (perhaps 3 times out of 4) treated not as a new version but as a new file. When I close the edit, I am told that there is a new file in a watched folder. When I accept this, I am offered any tags which were applied to the original (which works a bit) but then have to find my way to the edited file and the original, and manually make them into a set. It adds a couple of minutes to each edit. I am using Photoshop 11 on a Windows 8 laptop with a 1000GB hard disc (with about 100GB free). My catalog is quite big- about 70,000 items. I am a long-time Elements user (since the original?). This problem is fairly new (ie months not years)- certainly since I moved to V11. This is independent of the format of the original (in my case, RAW or jpeg) or the edited file (in my case usually jpeg).

Im making individual movie frames and the adding them together to make a movie. I saved as a bmp.
If I import to MS Moviemaker all is well.
However if I import to Adobe Premier Pro it won't see the image. But if I open the image with MS Paint, make a minor change and then save it, Premier Pro will see the image.
To simplify things. My bitmap works in Moviemaker. It won't work in Premier Pro unless I save it (the gimp file) with MS Paint.
I have seen this before with other programs. I'll edit an jpg and save it as a jpg. However some programs won't accept the modified image but they will accept the unmodified one.
I'm running version 2.8.2 of GIMP on Kubuntu 12.10. I do not remember which version I was running before this one, but it was possible to press ALT + ENTER to open a properties dialog where one could enter / modify a description for the opened image. ALT + ENTER does nothing in this new version, but I think that I should enter the File -> Properties dialog to do this, right? The dialog is different and it is in a different menu now, but it seems here is where we should enter / edit image metadata. However, nothing that I fill in this dialog is saved. I enter the title, author, description, etc., but when I click OK the info is discarded without warning. If I go back to the File -> Properties dialog right after confirming the data I had just entered, the dialog is blank again.Is this a bug or am I looking for the enter / edit metadata functionality in the wrong place?

For some of my files, however, the Save to File command doesn't work properly. If I am only displaying files with changes, the file briefly disappears, then returns. Even if I go to Windows Explorer and delete the xmp file, then again Save metadata to file, it pops up again with the badge saying it needs to be saved. I'm using Lightroom 4.3 64 bit on Windows 7.

What I have is a nice production drawing, that has NEVER even been opened in C3D2013. I JUST finished adding labels for some new pipes and structures that are in an Xref. I saved the drawing and closed it to work on a different project while plotting. In SSM, I select the sheets to Publish, the first 4 plot without issue, then I get a CER without a Fatal Error...I can still work on the nbow current drawing...it appears that SSM crashed while loading the aforementioned sheet I had been working on.I close everything down, restart C3D2012, open the same drawing I had just labeled, says it needs to be recovered, so I let it finish loading (I've found that stopping the load will almost always cause C3D to hang indefinitely), close that drawing, then run recover, finds 2 errors, allow to fix, am greeted with the message box "This drawing has been saved by a newer version of C3D. All C3D commands are disabled in this drawing."
Wait a dang minute, SSM crashes and somehow (the save time is still the same as when i manually saved it in 2012) saves it as a C3D2013 file...even though it is still opening as a 2010dwg format file? Opening the file in Notepad even shows it was last saved in 2012.
I am running cs6 on both PC and Mac. On my pc if I save a Photoshop file on it as a save as, it does not open the file immediately. I have to close the original file, find the file then open it. Very time consuming and also confusing if you are working fast. On my Mac if i save a document in Photoshop, doing a save as, it saves the doc, and opens it right there and you just continue to work.

I recently scanned in an old photo and thinking I was being clever and losing zero quality, I saved it as a "Raw Data Image" using GIMP.
However, I cannot open it now, GIMP doesn't recognise it, and when I select Raw Data Image in the File > Open dialog, it just shows a garbled image and some sliders/numbers for me to play with.
Can I save my image, or will I have to scan the photo again (after spending months talking the owner into letting me borrow it and scan it in the first place!)
I use GIMP for painting, pixel art and general image editing, and have batch files set up to run GIMP with the appropriate sessionrc and gimprc parameters, as well as to copy and save all other [...]\username\.gimp-2.8\*rc files.
However, whenever I use one setup and then another, my tool options are all messed up, and it's rather aggravating having to reset them every time.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working with literally hundreds of images. All of them either are now or will be jpgs. All I need to do is open them up, resize them and then:
1. Cut the canvas size down only on the Y axis and center the image
or
2. Increase the canvas size up on the Y axis and not center the image which requires then sizing the resulting single layer to image size
After that, I need to save it as a different file name and close it. That's it. No other functions, no other options, no other possibilities exist. This is the ONLY way that this job can be done, these images must end up in this format and size.
Again I am doing this to hundreds of files. I am being slowed down a LOT by all the foolish YAPs about "JPG can't handle this blank layer do you want to export, blah blah blah" and of course "You're saving as a jpg so what quality do you want to use?"
Speed is my concern. I don't care about the options because I don't have options for this project. I just want to get it done. All this clicking the chain to break the link between X and Y and then mousing to the Resize button and then hitting Enter twice but only if I sized the canvas up and using the layer options to resize it if I sized it down if extremely time consuming. I want to use the keyboard as much as humanly possible...all this mousing is creating carpal tunnel and the tabbing to buttons is stupid due to the 5000 tab stops on each popup.
Some of this I can accept...I suppose. But is there any way to disable the popups for the JPG warnings when I save? Again I am not wanting to discuss why I should be saving in XCF or the disadvantages of using JPG or anything else. I just want to disable the popups that are slowing this project down significantly.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow do you delete saved image files from Gimp once you are finished with them ?
My 'Document History' is so cluttered with unwanted files they are now appearing on my Desktop ! I have used edit - clear ... but the files remain as a blank transparency & I cannot find a way to remove them entirely.
Windows XP, Gimp v2.6.1.1
I have created a pic in Gimp with layers. When I save it to my desktop (layers merged), it does not appear either on the desktop or in Windows Explorer. If I try to save it again, it flags it as already existing. When I try to open the file in Gimp, it does appear on the desktop and can be opened; however, the file icons are grayed out. I'm assuming the grayed out icon means something.
I have an odd behavior with saving, how to deal with. This is using Gimp 2.6.11 under Windows 7 Professional SP1.
When you do a "Save As" for a new picture, the default directory is "\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\bin". I have been careless and sometimes clicked "Save" without changing the directory. When I go to the directory "C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\bin", the files are not visible. But within Gimp, I can use the "Open" menu item to see them and open them, so they do exist.
how I can delete these files, because they don't belong in the bin directory?
