I am trying to save and load plugin's settings, ex. dialog setting values and strings. OS platform is windows XP. First I programmed the way of using *.ini file. But that not appropriate for Macintosh. So, I like to know common way by using SDK's APIs.
Development env. is VS2008 and Ai CS5 SDK.
I use Illustrator CS4 a few years already. Last week I couldnt open my .ai anymore: at the startup I have an error:
Error loading plugins
appbarcontrolsplugin.aip
asset mgmt.aip
fxgfileformat.aip
navigator.aip
photoshopexport.aip
photoshopimport.aip
sangam2aimapper.aip
scriptingsupport.aip
scriptmenu.aip
services.aip
welcomescreen.aip
I already installed all adope programmes again, after de-installing it.
I want to know how I can resize the width/ length of a art?
I went through APIs and got some useful suite like AITransformArtSuite. But I am unable to use it's method TransformArt. since I don't know how to create appropriate AIRealMatrix.
When plug-in loaded subsequent plug-ins added but prior plug-in removed.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIn the past I had created some preference settings for filter 'smart sharpen'. I always assumed that in case of reinstalling CS3, it would be possible to insert my old CS3 recepies from back-up.
But I seem to hit a brick wall;
Where does CS3 save its smart sharpen recipes?
I noticed search cannot find a recipe either by file name or inside a file.
What is the file name were filter settings are stored?
Can I just overwrite with previous CS3 preferences? (there are no custom preferences in this CS3 yet)
And is it possible to import old CS2 preferences for filters?
I can't manage to save and load keyboard shortcuts with PS CS6. I do editing via "edit->keyboard shortcuts" and save the new profile as "Keys.kys". Then if I switch to another profile and back, the changes I made are gone. Also whenever I restart PS, I lose the changes. This is extremely odd, as when I checked the actual "Keys.kys" XML definitions with Notepad++, I can see that the shortcuts are correctly defined there. I also verified that .kys files are not write protected and that they have correct access rights. How on Earth PS can then summon the wrong shortcuts when loading the file?
I even tried searching and replacing every single .kys file in my computer, replacing them with the file with correct keyboard shortcuts, but even so PS doesn't load the changes but uses the defaults.
How to change keyboard shortcuts so that PS loads them on startup? I'm running PS on Windows 7.
I am currently having a little problem working with Photoshop: I am designing posters and other prints for a festival here, and we usually print the largest posters on A1 intl paper full color. That means working in a huge 300dpi file with quite a lot of layers.
The issue I'm having trouble with concerns the loading and saving of the files (the biggest ones are around 1.1GigaByte). Simply loading the file into PS takes over 5 minutes, slowing down my computer drastically. Saving the file in a .psd format takes even longer, over 10 minutes sometimes.
I doubt this is an issue with the computer, as it has reasonable specs and is only a few months old. So how to reduce the file size of these .psds and thereby optimize their loading time. Because working like this is extremely time consuming and unproductive...
I once saw a clip from Autodesk, and this film presents a table of different API capabilities to AutoCAD, but I can not find it. There were shown in tables which can lisp, ARX. NET and others.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a project where I need to duplicate all animated sequences for both a male and female character. I currently have two biped rigged characters. I animate one, save the .bip animation file and then load into the other. I check the boxes for "Load max Objects" as I have some objects (like a glass of water) set as an IK pivot object. It loads those into the new scene along with the new pose, but the pose goes wrong, thought just with the arms (which are incidentally the only parts that have a seperate object as an IK pivot object.)
Here's a screenshot to show what I mean:
This incorrect animation happens whether the .bip animation file I save is loaded into the other character or loaded into the same character in it's original T-pose.
I was wondering if there might be a way to add the option to save a selection to the disk? when i work i create many selections with complicated shapes and areas.
since i need to use them more then once i was wondering if a feature for saving only the selection can be implemented ? this would enable me to load the selections to new projects and use them there making the same "print" every time.(my work around for this is saving a B/W picture of the shape then uploading it every time i need it , then copy and paste to a new layer
in the new project then selecting the shape area then flatting the image with the selection and deleting the internal area or the invert ) its long but works.if you can add "File Open into a NEW layer", this would save the need for part of my work around. i would then just load the save to the new layer and use it directly :-)
* This would be a great new feature anyway "File Open To a New layer" ... :-)
I saw this the save/load selection feature the other day in a photoshop presentation and was shocked that it's real :-)So if such feature can be added to paint.net even in version 4.0 it would be great and time saving too.
I'm actually using inventor 2012 and microsoft visual basic 2010 express, and i need to create some code so i can access and export all the information from the parameters list (values, names, tolerances... everything!) from a part i designed.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently started having a problem saving my UI settings in Max 2012. I launch my scripts and set up the buttons for them and save the UI so they’ll reload but when I restart Max, the buttons are loaded but the scripts to support them aren’t. So I have to go through and start them all again so they’ll work. Everything’s fine after that, till I restart Max, and the process starts over.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just started using max 2013 after upgrading from 2011. I read about how you can't import your old UI settings so I started to customize some new ones, saved them to the MaxStart file and the next time I loaded max its gone back to the defaults. The same thing is happening for my preferences. I changed my undo levels to 200 yesterday and today they're back at 20.

I loaded an MP4 into Photoshop CS4 and edited some frames. (I'm on a Mac OSX)
Now I need to save the video file. I tried to save the video file as an MP4 and AVI leaving default settings alone. However no matter how I saved the video it looks all pixalated, or save as a much smaller video size and still all pixelated. How do I save an exact copy of my video with the edits I made?
I'm having a problem where my settings are not being saved.
I like to have the font be Arial, 12 Point and centered. When I upgraded to SP3, I had to start Corel X5 while holding the F8 key because it would keep crashing. After this, I set everything up the way I like it, but it's not keeping my setting for font, size and alignment. It keeps reverting back to Arial, 24 point, Left every time I restart Corel X5.
The way I try to save the settings is in a blank document, I change the font to 12 and X artistic and paragraph text, then I change the alignment to center and X artistic and paragraph text. Then I click CTRL-J, Document - check Save options... then click ok. Previously this always worked. Under SP3 it doesn't.
Is there anyway to save dimensioning settings, like origin offset, point size, arrow type? When I dimension an object, I have to reset all of these items each time I create a new dimension. I realize that this isn't a CAD program, but why give us this nice tool if you can't save the settings from one dimension to the next?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am having an issue with my Sheet Sets keeping the settings I have entered after closing them out.
For example, I create a new Sheet Set (from Existing Drawings) add my layouts to it, organize them, then I right-click on the Sheet Set name and select Publish > Sheet Set Publish Options
In the dialogue box that opens I change four things:
1. Location: I point it to the network location where I want the DWFs stored.
2. File Format: change from DWFx to DWF (this is due to a limitation with our printing equipment)
3. Type: changed to Single-sheet file
4. Merge Control: changed to Lines Merge
It seems to maintain all of these setting until I close the sheet set out (change drawings, close C3D, etc.) Then when I reopen the Sheet Set later, it will revert the File Format back to DWFx and the Merge Control back to Lines Overwrite.
The reply given did not answer the issue but was mistaken for use with the plot dialogue box, which this is not about. The issue we are having is the sam as above with the "lines merge" ALWAYS reverts back to "lines overwrite" after the sheet set is closed and re-opened. I have seen a thread suggesting that If the PC3 files are read only this may be the problem, but as a cad manager in even the smallest of firms, having the pc3 files read only is just about a must to keep from accidental changes from occuring. Is this the reason? I dont see what conection the pc3 files would have with the settings in the sheet set manager. (all of our pc3 plotter setting are set to "lines merge" in each of the printer settings as well) so, where and why it keeps reverting back to "lines overwrite".
Noticed that after the last update many profile settings like snap aperatures, OSNAPS, and data shortcut working files aren't being remembered? It has only happened to a couple people, but they are having the exact same issues.
I wish it was simple as the shortcut being reset or pathed to the wrong profile, but it's not the case.
When saving a drawing why do my plot settings not save with it? As in the window I use and the scaleUsing 2007.

Can I do this in LR 4.2?
I have recently changed computers, I am apart of a Flexi license system. Now my problem is when i go into Application options and change where to open my templates from it does not save when i quit Inventor. I have also notcied small things like the reverse cusor button i always click but everytime i get out of Inventor it defaults.
(Pictures: One is the custom templates i would like to use. I am selecting them in Application Options/ Templates than applying and closing. Then when i am fnished with Inventor for the day and shut down and the next day when i come back it defaults back to the default templates)
So we have an HP T1100 plotter and we want all the .pc3 files on the server. I go to the plotter in my devices and printers from the start menu and I add in all my custom paper sizes. Then I create a .pc3 file that points to a system printer on my machine for that plotter. I then move the .pc3 file to the server. Next thing I do is go to .pc3 file on the server and filter out all the unneeded papers sizes (arch, jis, iso, etc.) so all that shows up in the plot dialog box are the custom sizes I created. I then re-path autocad to the server in my options. All is fine so far, everything plots fine.
Now I go to another machine and point autocad to use the folders on the server for the plotters. I go to plot and the .pc3 files are there but when I pick the paper size drop down selection, all the arch, jis, iso sheets, etc... that I filtered out are now there. Well, I can go into the .pc3 file on his machine, re-filter out all those unneeded paper sizes and all is well, but then I come over to my machine and all the unneeded paper sizes are there again. It goes back and forth. I save on one machine and then the other one is messed up.
I cannot get the unfiltered papersizes to stay that way on the .pc3 file thats on the server. Why is this? I know I have the .pc3 file pointed to a system printer on my machine but we have the same printer on each machine with the same drivers. We could just put the plotter on the server so there is no system printer but that is not an option right now.
I am using LR4 and Photoshop CS6. What has recently started happening is when I send an image from LR to CS6 and then save the image I reopen the image in LR and find that all of the basic settings have been changed.
I am referring to the Exposure, Contrast, Highlights, Shadows, Whites, Blacks. Even if I send the image to CS6 and make no changes, only chosing to save the image before closing, when I reopen it in LR it appears blown out because of the changes in these settings. I there a setting in preferences or somewhere that could have somehow been changed and causing this? Have updated both programs so am using the most recent versions.
It seems that when I open the image back up in LR it is way overexposed, however if I send it back to Photoshop the image is appears to be exposed properly like when I saved it.
Was working fine last I logged in, now says that plugins are missing namely 'envelope & pathfinder'. Will open file but I can't do anything..?
View 7 Replies View RelatedHow do I go about saving the settings on the open dialog box? It keeps moving to different locations and it keeps changing the Name / Date modified / Type / Size columns very narrow where it only shows the name and nothing else.
I do have the dialog box very large across so it can accommodate what I want including the preview.
I am installing AutoCAD for the first time in a lab at a high school. We have roaming profiles for each user. When I launch AutoCAD for the first time as a user, the program goes through it's first time configuration, check the "Privacy Statement" and uncheck the "Show at Start up" on the welcome box. After I log off and log back in and launch the program again, it goes through the setup again and I don't have the setting I had changed on the previous launching of the program. I think it has something to do with the roaming profiles because when I login as myself (I don't have roaming profiles) it works fine.
