Paint Shop Pro :: Scripts Are Not Running Silently?
Sep 10, 2012
I have psp x3 and I created some simple scripts for example for high pass sharpening (or curves). Obviously these run silently. In one session I used the 'curves' script on 3 or 4 photos. The next time I used it it did not run silently but prompted me to set the values. So I restarted psp and its still prompting me. The 'high pass sharpening' also prompts me now instead of using the defaults. I also create new scripts which do not run silently. So, in short, no scripts run silently even if I specifically run them in silent mode.

I recently bought PaintShop Pro Ultimate X5. So, the software is remain running in the background even when I quit the app. I must do CTRL-ALT-DEL and stop the process. Is it a bug? I think is it not normal

Although Paint Shop Pro X4 runs the filters from Topaz Labs correctly on a single file, PSPX4 chokes when running the filters as part of a script in batch files. Not only was the program unable to apply the plug-ins correctly in a batch file, the errors were different depending on the plug-in.
I ran my tests on 8 JPG files with dimensions of 4021x3024 pix, file size averaging 2.8 MB. I then reduced the files to 800x600 pix dimensions and ran the same tests. Results were the same on both size groups. I recorded a script with only each Topaz filter, then tested the script on a single image. The script worked. The problems occurred when run in batch processing. I tested against another company's plug-in, running Alien Skin's Xenofex 2 Burnt Edges in a batch file with script on the 8 images with no problem. I also tested the same Topaz Labs filters in PhotoLine 16, recording and playing actions. The plug-ins ran perfectly in PhotoLine.
When batch processing was run in PSPX4, it was run with the test script selected and silent mode selected. Silent mode means the script should run from start to finish with no intervention by the user. Here's what happened in my tests.
Topaz Adjust 4 - Batch file runs correctly through 4 images, then the process freezes. The Windows Task Manager shows PSPX4 to be "running."
Topaz Detail 2 - Batch file runs correctly through 4 images, then the process freezes. The Windows Task Manager shows PSPX4 to be "running."
Topoaz Clean 3 - Batch file runs, but Topaz window opens on each file, requiring user selection before progressing to next file. However, the process freezes after the fourth image. The Windows Task Manager shows PSPX4 to be "running."
Topaz InFocus - Batch file runs, but Topaz window opens on each file, requiring user selection before progressing to next file. However, the process freezes after the fourth image. The Windows Task Manager shows PSPX4 to be "running."
Topaz Lens Effects - Batch file runs, but Topaz window opens on each file, requiring user selection before progressing to next file. However, the process freezes after the fourth image. The Windows Task Manager shows PSPX4 to be "running."
Topaz DeNoise 5 - Batch file runs for all 8 files, however Topaz window opens on each file, requiring user selection.

I was checking XP Task Manager just now and noticed that although PSP8 isn't running as far as I'm concerned (there are no PSP8 windows open), its executable still appears in the task list.

I have just installed PSP X5 and have found a couple of problems.
First one is when I close PSP the process still runs for a good 10 minutes afterwards and consumes a lot of system memory. I found this by accident after I closed PSP X5 and then decided to start it again. It wouldn't open until I closed the previous process.
Second, when I start PSP after the splash screen and the program interface appear I have to wait about 1 minute 40 seconds before I can do anything with the program.
how to improve this situation because at the moment I don't consider this acceptable?
I'm running Windows 7 32 bit with 4Gb of RAM, other than browser and email no other big program is running inthe background

I am running Win 7 64bit Pro with several users defined on a PC. PSP X4 runs OK for my user, but all other users cannot start PSP X4 they get a message Temp Directory not defined. The Temp Directory is defined and valid with write permissions.
Windows is installed on C: drive, but User directories are on E: Drive
PSP X4 version 14.3.0.3
I have reviewed a post for a similar issue, but this does not apply for my issue viewtopic.php?f=56&t=39832&p=208741&hilit=temp+directory+not+defined
I have even tried copying the corel hive of HKCUSoftwareCorel from my user and "DocumentsCorel Paintshop Pro" directory to the other user, but still get the temp directory is not defined message
So basically although PSP X4 is running for one user on the PC, none of the other users can start it to run for the first time

I have GIMP 2.8.8 installed on Ubuntu 13.10 amd64. The machine has 32Gb of RAM, and in GIMP preferences I have changed "Maximum new image size" to 4Gb and "Maximum undo memory" to 12Gb. However, if I try to open a large image in GIMP. it crashes while trying to open it - for example, this 15427 x 12549 pixel tif image available from the European Southern Observatory web site: [URL]
When I try to open this or similar sized images, the progress bar at the bottom of the file open dialog goes across to 100%, then GIMP stops responding for 10 or 15 seconds, and then the entire GIMP window disappears with no error message from either GIMP or the operating system, System Monitor shows no gimp process running, and the only entry I can find at the relevant time in any of the log files in /var/log is this:
Nov 22 06:15:36 nick-desktop kernel: [ 1458.563084] traps: gimp-2.8[4160] trap int3 ip:7f508c2dd3d9 sp:7fff6768a050 error:0
The same problem happens if I try to create a new large image - select New from the file menu, enter 12000 pixels for the width and height in the dialog, and OK. After 10 or 15 seconds of no response, the GIMP window vanishes. I can open or create and work on smaller images without any problem.
I also have the Windows version of Gimp 2.8.8 installed on my laptop, which is running Windows 8.1, and there I have no problem opening or creating the exact same images.

I do tech-support work in a school district that is part of the Project Lead the Way program. As part of this program, we have 2 full labs of machines (25+ each) that are licensed for using Inventor 2012. Each year, this program supplies an updated version of Inventor, so each year I have to make a new Ghost image for those labs and apply it. All the machines are identical, and I image them with the same Ghost image file. This year, I'm having some major difficulty as follows:
On seemingly random machines with seemingly random student-level access accounts, the Inventor splash screen will come up when the kids launch the program…and then it will just immediately dump them back to the desktop with no error message whatsoever. At first I thought it was a rights issue, but on some machines it does the same thing when I log in with my administrator-level account.
These machines were imaged with Ghost, with Inventor 2012 installed, then activated on standalone licenses when the kids log in the first time (at least in theory). The machines are running Windows XP SP3, on an AD2008 domain. Sometimes you can log into a machine with a different user account where a kid has had this problem, and Inventor will open right up. That would seem to indicate that it's an account/permissions issue, but if you then take that kid and move him to a different (identical) PC in the lab, he'll be able to open Inventor just fine.
I've spent a good 2-3 hours Googling this one, digging into Autodesk's knowledge base and just looking through different forums, but I've had no luck isolating any factor that might cause this behavior so far. I even went so far as to do a full uninstall using the Autodesk uninstall utility on one affected machine. When I reinstalled from the disc, the behavior persisted. I also tried downloading Service Pack 1 for the software, which apparently just came out on August 31st. Installing the Service Pack didn't fix the issue either. I see nothing suspicious in the system logs that point out an Autodesk-related error.

Just came upon an error I had not seen before. Though PSP no longer supports Animation Shop, up until PSP X4, the user has been able to export frames back to PSP from Animation Shop. Now, this no longer works! There's still some communication there, because an error message - which, incidentally, makes absolutely no sense at all - is generated in PSP X4:

I installed PSP X4 today on a new PC with Windows 7 and noticed that it has no Animation Shop. Can I install Animation Shop to this machine? Will it work without PSP 9 or does it need certain dlls from PSP 9 ? I really want to be able to use Animation Shop again.

I want to use the paint brush for editing a photo I have, but the only color available is black. No matter where I've looked in PSP, there was no option to change the color of the paint brush. I've read online that you need to change the pallet to material pallet, then go to "Foreground & Stroke Properties" and set the color box to the color I want, but the only colors I get are different hues of black and gray.
Even in Paint it's just a matter of clicking the desired color to use different colors. Why isn't it so simple in PSP?

Ok, either I am totally loosing it, or it just ain't happening.
I cannot get the Nik HDR module to work with my PSP X5
It's installed, it shows up in my Effects menu, but it only imports one of the photos I have opened in my edit tab.
What am I missing??

Using PSPP X3 Ultimate.
I have some Tif files and jpeg files that are 600dpi and 400dpi. I scanned these images with my Canon CanoScan LiDE 700F scanner. Can i use my version of PSPP X3 Ultimate to change the dpi value? Is this stuck? I wanted to be able to get the 600 and 400 dpi image files (I have some 300dpi's too) down to the 100-250 range if I needed to. I see there are different export options and compression in PSPPX3Ultimate, but I'm not sure if this will do what I want.
I want to export as Tif and Jpeg again.
Are there any good third party photo and or video editors that I can batch edit this with? It's ok to mention pay programs and I'd prefer good quality freeware if there is such a thing. I am sure that my Corel program can do the trick though. I just don't know how and don't want to rescan multiple dpi's every single time. I only need the archives and then get the smaller dpi when needed.

I was using a trial version of paint shop pro x5 and still had 11 days left of my trial when it suddenly stopped working. When I click on the icon to start paint shop pro it starts up and then freezes every time when it is loading in the spot that says "initializing color swatches".
I haven't changed anything on my computer- it just suddenly stopped working. I uninstalled it and tried reinstalling it, I also tried restoring it.

I installed PaintShop Pro Ultimate X3 several months ago. It worked fine initially, but then stopped running and gave me an error message pertaining to a language error. In an effort to fix the problem, I have completely uninstalled the application and removed all of its registry entries. I then reinstalled the program, which appeared to be successful, however, now it simply will not run and gives no error message whatsoever. When you click the desktop icon, it tries to load momentarily, then does nothing more.
I have removed my virus protection and my User Account Control.

When I open a jpeg in X4 it always says it is at 72 dpi. Even when I resize it so it is at 220, when I open it again and look under image information it always says 72 dpi. If I open the same image in any other editor, including X3 it reports the correct dpi. This coupled with the extreme compression is making X4 useless to me unfortunately.
I'm not prepared to sit and do the math to try and figure out what it is really at.
I have reset the number under preferences/general program preferences/units and it doesn't respond to that either.
For me, this version is problematic and not worth taking the time to learn. I need to be able to depend on and trust the information I'm getting from my software.

I normally upgrade every other version. I currently use X2 on a Windows XP computer. My primary uses are photo editing. My key interests are:
- processing 16 bit per color files
- use of layers and blends
- stereo photography (combining and aligning stereo pairs)
- use of various tools such as cloning and healing.
- Color management and Printing
Reviewing the product page, I haven't really found anything that shows a list of upgraded or added features. Most of the things mentioned appear to be in X2 already. Looking at the thread calling for future features, it appears that the things missing are still missing. X2 is serving me well, but there has to be some reason to upgrade?

Using RAM Disk to speed up performance in Paintshop Pro? I like what I've seen so far except the program seems very slow. I have 32GB of RAM and have created a RAM Disk. I can manually copy images to the RAM disk, then work on them, then save them to the hard disk when done. Is there a way to make this automatic. I've set my temporary files to the RAM - trust this does not mess things up for Paintshop as those files disappear when I shut off the computer - but ain't that the intent of "temp" files. I'm going to try to set the Cache to this RAM as well.
Tried going to preferences and enabling the Scratch to my RAM disk (R:) but would not let me do that.

I am a beginner with PSP and would like to get some hints on the following two tasks:
- When I have two .JPG files, how can I form a PSPX3 picture with the contents of the two files arranged side-by-side which I can then store as a single .JPG file (this is the kind of picture I want to show at a presentation)
- When I have one .JPG file, how can I construct a PSPX3 picture that consists of the contents of this file (say, in the left half) plus a free space of the same size right adjacent to the loaded picture where I can add some text items?
Maybe even a suitable hint to where I find the steps to perform these tasks in the user manual (and how they are called in PSP terminology) would be a first step to find a solution (you need not copy the user manual!).
