Photoshop :: 13.0.2 Update / Layer Comps Refresh
Dec 11, 2012
I'm experiencing strange layer comps behaviors since Photoshop 13.0.2 update, on an existing .psd file. If some comps are correctly rendered, some others are not refreshed: layers visibility is not updated, workspace seems to be frozen, using for instance the magnifier tool to zoom in/out renders a completely white workspace, and moving then my mouse pointer above it only refreshes its lower half part (a little bit more actually). Moreover, Photoshop CPU consumption becomes quite high as long as I stay on such composition (around 50% CPU instead of 2% compared to working comps).
I've tried to disable GPU from Photoshop preferences, Machine is a mid-2010 17" MBP w/ i7@2.66. No problem with the same .psd file before upgrading to 13.0.2..

I am having issues with my Photoshop CS5, for some reason if I make any changes to my PSD they don't display straight away as normal, I have been having to zoom in/out of the PSD to force the changes to appear, whether its adding/editing text or images, just anything won't show straight away like it used to. I haven't added any plugins that I know of, it's pretty stock standard version 12.0.4 x64 and I assumed it maybe graphic card related so just updated to the latest drivers with no luck so i'm lost..

I've only seen one thread that releates to this issue with no answer resolution. I have a reoccuring but where my layer comps display with elements moved into different positions from when I last saved the comp (all layer comps are set to save Visibility, Appaearance and Position).
This seems to always happen when I re-open a document, and frankly I'm getting sick of going back and fixing photoshop documents after I save all my comps to files. I can't imagine that this isn't a known issue or that others are not seeing the same thing.

Is there a PSD file viewer program that allows someone to toggle between Layer Comps so that one does not need the full blown Photoshop application to view layer comps in a Photoshop document or be limited to viewing only the default Layer Comp?

I am trying to Export Layer comps to file to make a pdf of a 38 page document. When try to export to jpg or png the files are too small, even on the highest setting.
When I try to export to tiff or psd, it doesn't flatten the files and gives me files just as large as the master file.
When I try to export to pdf it creates very large files, that do not seem high quality.
Are there any more options or perhaps an additional script for exporting layer comps to files?

There is a bug in CS6 layer comps that does not save the appearance of layers which have had their layer style cleared.
Steps to recreate.
1. Create a black square in a new photoshop document.
2. Create a layer style on the black square and set the over layer color to red.
3. Create a layer comp and turn on "Appearance" tracking, then update the layer comp.
4. Clear the layer style for the square, it should now be black again.
5. Create a second layer comp also with "Appearance" tracking on, and update it.
6. Go back and forth between the layer comps, the layer should turn from red to black, and the layer style should disappear and reappear on the layer, in the layers panel.
7. Save and close the file.
8. Re-open the file
9. Go back and forth through the layer comps, both will show a red square. The layer style never gets cleared.

A lot of times I'll be working on multiple .psd files and as I'm moving between files I'll notice that all the layers & layer comps will disappear from their palette
[URL]
I can bring them back by doing something like clicking on the text tool and then clicking on a text item on the stage. It's annoying because it takes a couple of clicks for the palette(s) to redisplay.
Is this a bug or is there a setting in preferences that can control this?

I keep getting this error message (see below) whenever I try to make jpegs from my layer comps using File-->Scripts-->Layer Comps from Files. This error always comes up after Photoshop gets through 2 or 3 comps. I often have to select only a few layer comps at a time to get it to make jpegs. I recently upgraded to Photoshop CS6.
Here is the message I get:
Error: General Photoshop error occurred. This functionality may not be available in this version of Photoshop. The object “layer comp 2054478963” is not currently available.

Working in the CC3D features, I am constantly making changes to my bump map. Every time I step-backwards, or make a significant change to the bump texture (smart object?), CC auto-saves the layer. This specific file is a very very large document (3 gigs in the bump texture layer alone), and the 3D layer has lots of lights and is very complex.
This auto-refresh/update really bogs down the time that it would take me to make my changes. I have a very fast machine (I know it's fast, I dont need to list my specs), and I have all shadows disabled.
How do I disable linked smart-object auto-update/refresh?

In C# I noticed that when I loop through the LayerTableRecords in the LayerTable some of the layers in the drawing do not show up. If I look at the layers in the UI it shows the missing layers with a grey icon for their status while the ones that it does detect have a blue icon for their status. The status has to do with which layers that the drawing believes are in use. In the UI you can press a refresh button and this will fix the problem. I want to know how I can fix this through the .NET API, COM API, or command line.

I have been doing some very simple editing of photo's taking a copy from part of one and pasting it as a new layer on another photo. I can then manipulate the size, placement and orientation easily with my X4 version of PSP.
I just purchased the new x6 and am ASTONISHED that this simple exercise doesn't work at all in the 64 bit version and only partially in the 32bit version of x6. What happens is that the screen isn't redrawing the changes as you move the pasted part around. It can be refreshed manually but gets into such a mess when you are trying to place the image that it's unusable. I go back to X4 and using exact same photo's I can work without any problem.
I'm on win7 ultimate all upto date and an 8800 GTS graphics card with latest drivers. There should be no reason x4 works and x6 does not.

I am editing a Postgis table using the OSGeo FDO Provider for PostgreSQL/PostGIS in AutoCAD Map 3D 2012. As i have noticed that the serial type of the ID field does not give an automatic value to de ID field after inserting a new feature in the layer and after checking in (AutoCAD Map seems not to understand de nextval(sequence_name) function in the DEFAULT property of the ID field(thats how the autonumeric numbers work in PostgreSQL)), i am using a database side trigger which gives the next sequence value to the ID field of the new record. The trigger is launched BEFORE inserting a new record.
The problem is that after executing the trigger, in AutoCAD Map all the fields are still shown as null, and they are not displayed until i manually refresh the layer.
Is there any way to auto-refresh the layer after checking in a new feature?

I am creating some comps with months of the year and need to space them out. I could create each month on its own layer and space them with the group tool. Is their another way around this?

I select a layer to work on it, move the layer, click on the canvas, & PSD activates a different, wrong layer. This happened on a new project and an older one that used to work. It seems to only affect layers that have been re-arranged.

I'm trying to paint over a picture but I'm painting over it with no opacity (which means yes, I'm painting over the picture invisibly) because I want to be able to see what I'm painting and the paint would block out some parts or "shadows" and contrasts of the image that I might've missed. So the problem here was how bothersome it was getting to constantly switch the opacity bar from 0% to 100% (I need to also see where I'm painting and check over any mistakes). So I thought I could just duplicated the painted layer so I would only have to click the duplicated layer instead of using the opacity bar to switch. But the duplicated layer is only left off to when it was first duplicated. It doesn't show the recent parts that I painted over. I remember taking Computer Graphics once and the teacher mentioning something about duplicating a layer and having that duplicated layer constantly updated to match the original layer (from every mark that is placed on the original layer).
So basically how would I make a duplicated layer update to its original layer every second?

I'm updating an animated gif. It has 6 layers. It starts without anything but a background and progressively shows a bubble slowly lowering (the bubble similar to the ones in comics that show what the characters are saying) . The 6th layer shows most of the text and says (among other things) "Spring Conference 2004". I removed the '4' from 2004 (I switched from within Imageready to Photoshop to clone it out) and want to replace the '4' with a '6'. When I put in the '6' (back in Imageready), it goes on each layer but i only want it on layer 6. So the '6' is in the right spot in layer 6 but shows in the same spot in all 6 layers.

When you create a text layer, it automatically names the layer whatever you type. If you go and rename the layer, it keeps that name regardless of what you type on your document.
What I want to do is revert the layer back to doing it's auto naming thing. Is there any way to doa that?
I can't just do "undo". Its an old document. I know I can copy the text into a new text layer and it will name it the way I want to, but I don't want to do that if I don't have to.

this has been only happening since updating this morning from 13.0.1 - 13.0.2...I have a problem where if I create a new curve layer and then press the preview button on/off it fails to re render the preview and nothing else happens until I OK it. I also notice that it creates history entries on the history panel like I'm making adjustments? Weird!
There's been a few other noticeable things too. The liquify window now doesn't draw as nice and smoothly as it did with 13.0.1. The cursor jitters a lot and control isn't as smooth.

I use "Collect Files" all the time. I collaborate with other people and this function is obviously vital.I'm currently having an issue with it collecting comps that are not selected. I choose "For Selected Comps" and I check off "Reduce Project." The new file has the comp I want, but also others. And if I try another comp, it will collect the same additional ones each time. And In the generated report, it is listing the comps I don't want as collected.
It seems to be specific though, collecting comps that are from other .aep files that I've imported. And only comps from .aep files that where generated with Collect Files. In other words, basically anything I've round-tripped using Collect Files and imported after a collaborator has finished their work.
I'm using AE 12.0.0.404 and I'm on OSX 10.8.4.

I've got a bunch of comps that contain vectors animating. Inside the comps, the vectors are set to "continuously rasterize" which means that they come out nice and smooth no matter what the size.
But I need to use these comps inside a larger composition, and I'm moving the whole comp around the screen with motion blur on it.
But when the comp is set to "Collapse Transformations", motion blur is disabled. If I turn off "Collapse Transformations", it appears to over-ride the settings inside the comp, so none of the vectors are smooth. They all look like pixel-based images that have been scaled up. Horrible.
I don't get it. I need those vectors to be crystal smooth, but I need the whole comp to have motion blur. How do I achieve this?
This is a 2D question, I'm not using any 3D at all. I've read the relevant sections on Continuous Rasterization and on Collapsing Transforms and, as is the case with so much of this Adobe documentation that I'm being referred to, it does not address my specific case, though I can't imagine it's that uncommon.
PS: I can't denormalize the hierarchy because of the way the animation has to work - the animation itself is hierarchical, therefore the content must be structured in a smiliar hierarchy in order to work (think moons orbiting planets orbiting the sun)

I've created a VB.NET routine to update blocks, layers and layer filters from a source drawing.
After updating filters and when the command is finished (dialog closed), the Layer Properties Manager palette MAY not update to show the new set of filters although visually you can see that it does appear to refresh itself.
Whether it updates seems to depend on which filter is active and which filters are added.For example, I have properties filters A, B, C, D and E, and B and E have subfilters B1-B8 and E1-E9.
If Filter E3 is removed as a test and the parent filter E is active, when the command is done, E3 should appear back in the list, but it does not show until the palette is closed and reopened. If filter B is active, then the list will refresh and E3 will show immediatlely after the command exits.
I have added a dialog to my routine to inform the user they may have to close the palette and reopen to get the proper display.
I have tried Editor.UpdateScreen() but that does not work.

I have a drawing with several layers being used. I also have some objects that are included in rectangular arrays.
When I update the colour or visibility of the layer, the array items do not follow the layer properties.
I have verified in the properties that the array object is on the correct layer.

CS4 EXtended
Nvidia 8800 GTS 512
Intel Quad Q6850 3.0MHz
4Gb ram

Installed CS4, all went well.
When I try and use CS4 the screen does seem to update.
For example. Have an image open..... Grad tool.....
Now the grad doesnt show, until i click on say enlarge or another tool.
Same for everything I do, I have to click on a tool or enlarge to get the screen to update.

will not refresh the image until I move it or go to another viewer and back. The layers panel refreshes for example but when you turn off layer visability on a given layer or make a change to a layer that change doesn't show in the image pane - until you move the pane or leave the pane and then reselect it.

If I open a dialog window (for example, edit/Color Settings or help/about)
and close the dialog, a single blank line appears in the middle of the menu
line (from File to X). If I minimize/restore PS window, the menu line
returns to normal. If I mouse over an item on the menu line, its appearance
returns to normal.

I'm creating a drawing set that has over 100 sheets with varying amounts of viewports on each sheet (from one to four). Each sheet is its own file, so there is only one layout per file. For each section of the drawing set, the viewports will have the same layer state.
Is there were a way to update the layerstate of each viewport through a batch LISP routine? This would save me DAYS in opening each file, importing the layer state, and restoring it for each viewport. It seems straight forward, but I have no idea where to start with batch routines.

I just started using Photoshop CS3. I've found that when using it occasionally other application windows will stop refreshing properly, and will only sparatically update. Has anyone else encountered this? I'm on Xp Pro with 4GB and dual xeons.

There appears to be a bug in CS6 - does this work in any version of Photoshop?
Problem - data sets are not refreshed when contents of the data file are changed, despite clicking "Apply Data Set".
The latest updates are installed, running on Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit, plenty of RAM and available storage. This has never worked before and appears to be a bug in the software. I’ve gone so far as to close PS and even rebooted between steps 4 and 5, same problem. Here's how to recreate it:
1. Create a psd, define variables (I've tried both text and graphic layers)
2. Assign csv file as "Data Set", save the psd
3. Run export, close psd
4. Chage data in csv that was defined as Data Set, save and close csv file
5. Re-open same psd
6. Click "Apply Data Set" - nothing happens
Data is NOT refreshed regardless of whether Data Set 1 or “All data sets” is selected. The only thing that seems to work is to open the PSD and redefine the exact same file as the data set again, then batch export. Because I'd be dealing with volumes of psd files that use volumes of Data Set files that change daily, this isn't feasible.
Defining (or redefining the same file) cannot be recorded in batch mode, nor through the listener (tried previous version just to see).
