Illustrator :: High Raster Effect Resolution In Large Document Makes Effect Disappear

Feb 18, 2013

I'm making some graphics to be printed on a car. I have some lines with outer glow on them, but Illustrator won't render these unless I use 72DPI in raster effects reslution. I would like to go higher, but it won't give me anything. Guessing it's to heavy for Illustrator maybe? Is there anything I can do about this? I'm making my graphics in 1:1 scale, but I do it in a lower scale since it's just vector art anyway, however how would that effect my glow? Since it's a raster effect.

Lightroom :: 5 Unusable Even After Reinstalling

Jul 29, 2013

Until last week I had no problems importing, playing or editing Canon 60D RAW or MOV videos in Lightroom 5. Since then, ever time I tried to import MOV videos LR5 crashed and needed to be restared - but is now 'permanently' crashed (see below).  I tried the following to overcome the issue, without success: Unistalled and reinstalled LR 5Updated video card driverInstalled QuicktimeOS (Win 8 Pro, 64 bit) up-to-dateUpdated monitor driver. My last attempt to overcome the issue involved disabling all LR5 plug-ins.  I then tried to import a video file to see if that fixed the problem. LR5 again crashed, but this time it it appears to have crashed 'permanently' because when I try to reload LR 5 it gets as far as the LR screen, tries to load 'previous import' into 'Library' and then immediately crashes, i.e. I can't get into LR at all to try any other possible 'fixes'.  I am now totally locked out of LR 5 because even after uninstalling and reinstalling LR it continues to crash immediately when I try to open it.
 
Other info that may assist resolving the problem includes: The video files that can't be imported seem OK - I can play them through Windows Media Player and Quicktime.DivX not installed. Installed a new video card (Gigabyte GT610) and installed the latest driver from the Gigabyte website.  I don't know if it's coincidental, but the new video card and monitor were installed before the problem arose. CPU is an i5 - 3550, 8Gb RAM (+-5Gb available), LR5 stored on 120Gb SSD with 8.3Gb free, photo/video files stored on a 680Gb HD partition with 55Gb free.

Photoshop :: CS6 Unusable - Repeated Font Warnings?

Jan 28, 2013

I've been using photoshop CS5.1 for a long time with no problems. I upgraded to CS6 which i'm finding unusable due to repeated font warnings.  I get interminable dialog boxes appearing over and over: "Adobe Photoshop CS6.app wants to use the font “xxxxxxx” that was downloaded from the Internet. Allow Adobe Photoshop CS6.app to use this font?"
 
It starts and stops doing this as i attempt to use PS CS6, and it's not just asking about fonts that are used in the document i have open - it does it for a huge list of fonts. And if i click 'Allow' AND 'don't ask me again for this font' it doesn't remember my choice and will ask again.

VideoStudio :: X2 - Blank DVDs Altered And Unusable

Apr 8, 2013

I have been using Video Studio Pro x2 for several years to edit and burn DVDs from the edited material with no problems. But for the last several months the burning process stops at the end of the VOB (whatever that is) but the blank disc is altered so it is unusable. It says that the Corel softwart has encountered a problem and has to close. I send a message every time but nothing comes of it. Another recurring problem is that it keeps telling me that the program will take a long time to burn even though I have checked the box to not show this message again.

The only way I have found to get the software to perform properly is to remove and reinstall the soft ware. Normal operation lasts for about four discs and the problem reoccurs. I have cleaned the hard drive of unnecessary files, etc. All my security updates are current.

I used this software on my previous two computers with no problems at all despite a much smaller Hard Drive, slower motherboard and much less memory.

Lightroom :: Unusable Import In LR4 And LR3 From Card Reader

Mar 11, 2012

Just upgraded my primary catalog to LR4. The LR3 import problem that started in ~3.3 or 3.4 has not gone away. Import effectively hangs the app.
 
I have a 6 proc AMD 1055T, Win7x64, w/ 16GB ram, an ATI 5770HD video card driving two monis, one 27" and one 24", and a ton of disk space (4 hd: c 384 free of 931, x: 191 f of 1.36TB, y: 1.55TB f of 2.72TB, z: 1.4TB f of 2.72TB). Free space isn't the issue. I usually do have several network shares connected; disconnecting them and removing all optical media makes no difference. My primary catalog has ~30,000 images When I try to import, the dialog itself takes up to a minute to open.

Eventually, the select source prompt appears; clicking on my usb2 card reader causes the dialog to disappear for a long time, sometimes > 2 minutes. The busy icon is displayed.If I'm super patient, the import disalog will open, but can take many minutes (3-5) to display, and once displayed, the busy icon remains and the dialog is not interactive for another long period, for example, right now, it's been > 10 mins on the 8GB card I'm trying to import from, import dialog visibility comes and goes, interacting with the scroll bar works, but so far I've only been able to scroll about half way thru the picture previews
 
This is obviously unusable. I've perverted my workflow at this point to be:

Copy images to temp folder in pictures hierarchy Sync temp folder, adding new images, without showing the import dialog Then, in Library view, I copy the new pictures to their final dest in my pictures folder hierarchy.
 
I just converted the catalog, so presumably it's optimized (optimizing made no difference in lr3.6 perf). As I said, this perf problem started in 3.3 or 3.4. ABout the only improvement I see is that I was able to successfully cancel the import; in 3.6 the app just stayed hung.

Lightroom :: Tethering Unusable With Nikon D800

May 4, 2013

I am on LR 4.4 using Nikon D800E.I had been using LR tethered with some intermittent locking issues since LR 3 with my Nikon D300.About 4 months ago, I purchased a Nikon D800E and started to use it tethered (as I had done with the D300) with LR 4.
 
It would lock up consistently and I would have to reboot the computer to regain functionality. This would happen so many times during a shoot, that tethering just became unusable.
 
After much testing, It turns out that the problem occurs when the camera's buffer reaches zero. LR consistently is unable to recover from this zero condition. Periodically it will allow one more shot after a bit (as if it tried to recover), but the shot in LR has an esclamation mark by it as damaged data. And at that point it will never recover without a complete computer reboot.
 
I'm shooting with a team in studio - I can't have LR be this flakey - It is not acceptable to not be able to reach a zero buffer condition while shooting (I'm using Profoto and it can recycle faster than the camera can send to LR). It is not usable in its current state tethered with a Nikon D800. Just not usable.
 
I had to switch to using Nikon's Camera Control 2 (which functions perfectly and never has trouble recovering from a zero buffer condition), until Adobe can fix this significant bug.
 
Come on Adobe - Fix your software so it functions.I also noticed that conveniently Adobe removed the functionality of their report a bug link.

Photoshop :: 7.0 Crashes / Dropdown Menu Become Gray And Unusable

Sep 2, 2013

I am a Photoshop 7.0 user on Windows XP. I have used Photoshop 7.0 for several years with pleasing results. Recently my installed version crashes at the same stage of use. I decided to buy a new program CD and uninstalled the original program. After installation of the new program Photoshop 7.0 still crashes at the same stage. Photoshop 7.0 starts up normally. Opens and displays an image file normally. However as soon as you select an option from the drop down menus e.g.(Filter/Unsharp Mask) the cursor arrow changes to a small square outline and most of the drop down menus become grey and unusable. The View menu still displays and functions normally all others are frozen. My installed version of Photoshop 5.0 works perfectly! Any other way than a complete system re-installation?

Lightroom :: 5.0 Renders SD Card Unusable Till Formatting Is Done In Camera

Sep 3, 2013

I remove an SD card from the Camera (canon 60d) Load it into my card reader and have it read by lightroom 5.0 and load the pictures into the catalog. I remove the card from lightroom and place it back into the camera. The camera indicates the card is not readable. However formating the card makes it usable. Lightroom 5.0 renders the card unreadable!

Photoshop :: Switch Zoom And Hand Tool Double-click Unusable?

Dec 19, 2012

Currently in PS and Camera raw, double-clicking the Hand tool fits the document and double clicking the zoom tool zooms to 100% (1:1 pixels)

This isn't good since it's completely unusable:

- dbl click zoom shows 100% - there's nothing to zoom, since it's zoomed...
- dbl click hand shows the image fit to window - the hand tool wouldn't make anything
 
switch the current double click behavior on Zoom and Hand tools so:

- dbl click hand shows 100% (1:1 pixels) so I can look around and see details

- dbl click zoom shows fit to window so I can zoom in to a region I want

Autodesk Content Service makes my computer so slow that it is unusable. I would like to know what this program does and whether I need it or not to run my student programs.

I removed the program using windows uninstall and my computer instantly began to respond again. Running Windows 7 Pro, 1 T 7200 rpm hard drive, 8 gb memory, quad core 775 chip. Nvidia video w/ 1gb memory.

This computer is lightning fast, no jitter or hanging in revit or auto cad until content services was running.

Illustrator :: Create A Watercolor Effect?

Nov 19, 2013

Can you make a Pen Tool path (white), and then, by using the Brush Tool, color it in automatically ONLY within the path's designated area?
 
Having the ability to do this would enable me to create "digital watercolor" images with texture. I would take the white paths, and then select a color and use the Opacity Tool to make the colors look like watercolor paint by using the Brush Tool. The issue is: can I make a color texture in any path?

Illustrator :: How To Keep Color Using Grain Effect

Nov 8, 2013

I am using the Texture --> Grain effect to give my fonts and graphics that "chalkboard look", however the grain effect makes everything that I add the effect to White.  Can I not have any color using the grain effect?  For example, my font is yellow but when I add the grain effect, it turns white.  Is white my only option with Grain effect?
 
How to achieve the "chalk" look!  Grain effect seems to work the best for me (except the color issue).

Illustrator :: Where Is Motion Blur Effect In AI

Jul 4, 2012

There's a gaussian and radial blur. What's so different about a motion blur?
 
I can create a sudo-motion blur by grouping several objects and moving one object off the page, then moving the center of the radial blur to that side, in the radial blur dialog. It would be much easier with a motion blur effect.
 
Another workaround is to blend  2 objects of different transparencies, but I can't save it as a graphic style. Transform would work, if transparency of "duplicate" objects could be altered. I don't see a way to do that either.
 
Looking for some creative solutions for motion blur effect, THAT CAN BE SAVED AS A GRAPHIC STYLE, I'd like to hear about them.
