Out of the blue CS3 extended is crashing when I try to access the preferences/performance menu.
I've reset the preferences during startup which did absolutely nothing. It still crashed.

I need to access Photoshop CS 5.5 running under Windows 7 remotely. I have Go To My PC and is works, but is there a solution that is better and faster?
Second, is the PC from which I access Photoshop relevant to performance – assuming I stick with Go To My PC?
I just installed CS6 upgrade. I always started Bridge from CS5 menu bar at the top. There is no Bridge button/icon to start Bridge from the top menu. I have to access it through the file menu. Is there a problem or am I missing an option or preference setting? In CS4 & 5 it was always on the top menu bar?

In Photoshop, I did some type in the regular characters, but I cannot find how to access the alternate characters for this font. The dropdown next to the right of the font box says "regular" and there are no other options to select.

View 6 Replies View RelatedThe company I work for has security measures in place which prevent me from modifying any directory within the C: drive. This means, of course, that I can't add fonts to either the system fonts directory or the Adobe/Fonts directory.
Obviously, this is a huge disadvantage, and I'm trying to find a workaround. Any way to make Photoshop find fonts in a different directory? I'm able to create and modify directories on our shared server, so I'd like to create an alternate fonts folder there and point Photoshop toward it.
(I'm using CS4 on a Windows XP 5.1 . I'm a Mac guy at home, so I don't know much about Windows.)
I'm experiencing a very bizarre problem in CS with a font special character. I used Extensis Suitcase to examine all the font characters for a particular font that I'm using on a project. The character mapping shows the key combination for the character I want is (on a Mac) Option/Alt + Z.
This works in every other application on my computer, including my email application, but for some reason, within CS it brings up the Omega character. Any idea why this happens and how I change it? I even tried to type the character in Word and cut and paste it into Photoshop and it changes! What gives?
Accessing metadata in Photoshop CS6 extended (file info) for any file, raw or .psd., causes application to freeze. I must force quit the application to continue. Application is running on OSX Lion.

I have successfully carried out a trial back up of an Elements 6 2000 picture catalog from an XP based PC, using the Elements 6 full back-up process. This process is intended to be used eventually to transfer this and other catalogs onto a new Windows 8 PC installed with Elements 11.
However, in the interim I would also like to be able to access the picture files and the catalog data on the ehd from a Vista based laptop which also has Elements 6 installed. How to do this without carrying out a full restore process that would load all of the files onto my laptop's hard drive.
In transferring the picture files to the end I also seem to have lost the original file structure that was on my PC, as folders have been renamed numerically and are all held individually in the main folder of the end. Whilst this doesn't matter too much whilst the files remain on the end, provided the catalog still know

I can only hope that there is some simple setting that I'm just not aware of.
I've been trying very hard to understand why CS6 (now 64bit) is acting more sluggish than CS5. If I start an intensive task like a detailed Image Trace for instance, I will monitor both CPU usage and memory usage. Apparently Illustrator cannot mult-thread as it only uses one core out of a quad core processor at any given time. So use of modern CPUs is not yet an Illustrator feature it seems?
When I monitor memory usage (with Apple's own Activity Monitor and also iStat menus) as I'm watching a slow progress bar, Illustrator is calling on only between 1 and 2 gigs of RAM, never more than that, and leaving somewhere in the area of 11-12 gigs of RAM free. Why is that?
Bottom line I've seen no change from 32bit to 64bit except that CS6 seems a tad more sluggish. Even to the point of seeing a short progress bar during most saves on files that I'm quite sure weren't calling up progress bars in CS5.
Am I able to access and read and write to the file holding the variables used in the parameters-manager's palette. Ideally, I want to read the value held for an action-parameter, do some math using C, and write the result back to the file as a user-parameter which may be seen in the parameters-manager's palette.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write a plug-in that involves operations with TIN surfaces. I tried to follow the example from the Developer's guide just to see if I could get accessing a TIN surface to work, but without success, and now I'm stumped.
Here's my code, which is supposed prompt the user to pick a surface, and then simply spit out the name of the surface that was selected:
Imports System
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.Geometry
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.EditorInput

The plug-in is loading just fine and the initial prompt comes up, but whenever I actually select a surface after being prompted, I get a fatal error that causes AutoCAD to close.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm having a problem accessing data manager tables in the 2011 version. My C# .NET code worked fine with 2010. Here is a sample of the 2010 code that works, but returns zero length tables in 2011.
C#
ProjectPartCollection oPP = PlantApplication.CurrentProject.ProjectParts;
PlantProject oPProj = PlantApplication.CurrentProject;
Project oProj = oPP["PnId"];
try
{
//get ACAD data table
[code].......
The last two lines fail to object any meaningful data in 2011. In 2010, I would have all the table rows and could access tags and asset information.
I have successfully created and defined a topolgy in Map 3D using a Visual Lisp routine that I cobbled together from CREATE.LSP. What I'd really like to do is be able to access that data and create closed polylines and centroids without going through the menu interface. The only documentation that I've been able to find is the Mapping Commands section of the Help file.
I found several commands, but they rely on user input to work. I might be able to work around this by typing a dash before the command line to suppress dialog boxes except for the fact that MAPCLPLINE does not respond to this method.
I noticed in CREATE.LSP that there was a TPM_MTNBUILD command that (apparently) was used to build the topology. Are there similar commands that I just haven't found yet?
I created a panel by following the EmptyPanel sample. Basically, my code looks like:

The problem is, when I call sAIDocument->GetDocumentFileSpecification, I get a NULL file path with an error code of kNoDocumentErr.
I'm setting up some custom toolbars and that's no problem, but what I'd like to do is have one of the buttons be a toggle, so the icon changes depending on what state it is in. I'm just having a bit of trouble figuring out how I find those buttons programatically from within C#. I've included Autodesk.Autocad.Customization which gives me the Toolbar, Tool bar button, etc classes, but I don't know how to find the existing toolbars from the running session of AutoCAD.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to rewrite some old VBA code into VB.net (which I'm not even Novice level yet), and I'm stumped on what would be a fairly simple principle (in VBA)..
For Each BlockDef in ThisDrawing.blocks If Left(BlockDef.name, 12) = "*Paper_Space" then Select Case True Case BlockDef.Layout.Name Like "*Test*" blah blah End Select End IfNext
Essentially conditional manipulation of paperspace elements depending on the layout name.
The following fragment allows me to recurse through entities in paperspace, but I've no idea which layout tab..
Dim BlkPaperSpc As BlockTableRecord = ScanTrans.GetObject(BlkTab _(BlockTableRecord.PaperSpace), OpenMode.ForWrite)For Each AcObjId As ObjectId In BlkPaperSpc Dim PspaceObj As String = AcObjId.ObjectClass.NameNext
What I need to do is to be able to identify a type of object (a table), confirm it's location, delete it and replace it with another one, depending on which layout tab it's on.

We have written a VB6 program for non-Inventor users that uses the Autodesk Inventor Object Library from an install of the Inventor Viewer 2011-2012. The program collects drawing sets from a VaultMirror folder exported from the actual Inventor vault. In addition, the program exports assembly parts to a formatted Excel file for purchasing.
We thought that it worked fine but, have recently found an issue: the program reads and exports ALL items referenced in an assembly, not just items in the parts list. For a particular assembly that I am using to test with, there are seven items in the parts list but, 23 parts referenced in total in the assembly. So, we get an Excel export with 23 + line items and when plotting to pdf, get 23 pdf files instead of the seven that should be created.
We are using the ApprenticeServerComponent to open the file objects but, I can't find a parts list. I have reviewed a number of posted examples of accesing parts lists and opening ApprenticeServerDrawingDocument objects but, nothing seems to work. It is like I don't have access to all of the object types needed to make it happen.
Should I be trying to open an iam or idw to access the parts list?
Are there any very basic code examples available of accessing a parts list?
