When I use the "Save As..." command to save a picture with transparency as a Windows bitmap file (.BMP), the transparency information gets lost. I selected alpha-channels and chose 32-bit in the BMP options dialog.
In CS3 this works fine.
how I can get it to work in CS4? The target program can only read BMP-files, so my workflow depends on it.
it allows me to save normaly, but if i want/need to change a file type, or name and i click "save as" the save as window pops up for a brief moment then disapears.and photoshop feezes. it doesnt really crash, it just freezes and i have to go into task manger to close it.
im a digital artist so my cs3 program is really important...i need it up and running again!! any help here?
ive already tried ALT+Spacebar and then M to see if the window was juust off screen, but it didnt work. ><''
besides the program lagging ocassionaly with big file loads/saves everything works fine. its just this problem that keeps me from workng!
im trying to add an alpha layer or alpha channel to a bitmap and save in BMP format.
I am using Photoshop 6.
I already have an image file in png format..which I want to use as an application launcher icon for my android application.
The android specifies image with following properties for the launcher icon(Will need 4 different image to support different screen size in mobile devices)
Launcher icons should be 32-bit PNGs with an alpha channel for transparency. The finished launcher icon dimensions corresponding to a given generalized
Screen density are shown in the table below.
1. 36 * 36 px
2. 48 * 48 px
3. 72 * 72 px
4. 96 * 96 px
I would like to create 4 png files(with specifications mentioned above) from the already existing image file. How do I do that in GIMP.
I am completely novice to image editing(Never touched any image editing software before) and not sure how to achieve this in GIMP.
Do I need to convert the original hi-res image file somehow to be able to save for web?

View 5 Replies View Relatedwork in broadcast and a new piece of gear prefers png files. I know how to save png's with a transparency, that's not the problem. What I don't know how to do or if it's possible is to save them with a straight or fat alpha. Right now we feather or extend the edges out past the alpha of say a logo and save it as a tif, psd or .tga. That way once it's keyed over video or whatever, the edges look good, no black bad edging.. But switching to png files, how to make a straight or fat alpha since it sees transparency. I mean if I feathered out the edges, a png will see that correct, since there's no alpha?
View 7 Replies View Relatedi have an image which has an alpha channel which allows certain parts of the image to be more transparent than others.
When you de-select RGB channel and only leave the Alpha channel selected you'll notice that the image has now turned into a black and white alpha image, where black shows complete transparency, and white shows no transparency. Is it possible to save this black and white alpha image? Incase you dont understand what im trying to do heres a picture.
I just took that pic off the net as an example of what i want (incase your wondering), so basically, all i want to know is, how do you save an image (like above) which shows the levels of transparency.
At the moment, i have to use the printscreen key on the keyboard to capture the image, which is very annoying because its extra work and if the image is larger than the screen it requires alot of aligning.
I have a PNG file created in Photoshop and I need to save it with an alpha channel for web purposes. I tried 'Save for Web & Devices' and selecting the Transparent box.
Then, after saving, when I select 'get info' for the file it says there is no alpha channel. I'm stumped I can't seem to create an alpha channel from within Photoshop while I'm editing.
I have PSE9 and need to create an image without the background (mk background Alpha Channel) and save as Targa. I can edit the pic, save at 32 at 200k but PSE9 does not allow to save/create Alpha Channel. How do I make the (background an) alpha channel and save as Targa?

my keyboard short cut for ctrl+ a doesn't work, for some reason. All the other keyboard shortcuts work, except for that one (At least i think so..). I read through numerous threads about why keyboard short cuts do not work. 1. they are cracked copies of photoshop, 2. they are using logitech keyboards.
But I'm not using a cracked copy, and I just upgraded my logitech drivers to the newest ones.. and the problem just started yesterday without any reason. But when I change my short cut from ctrl a to.. something else, say alt+ctrl+a. it works.. but I prefer the old ctrl A.
Right click open with PS7 doesnt work. Every time i select it, it opens in windows picture viewer. But i can open it in illusttrator 4 some reason.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a series of images with alpha channels what I want to separate out from the images and save as a new file with a filename suffix.
For example I have a series of folders containing thousands of images:
These files are filename.dds files (I already have the .dds plugin to read them but you could use .png for example).
I load the image, goto Colours - > Components - > Decompose :
In the dialogue I enter color model : Alpha, tick decompose to layers - > OK
I then export the file as filename_a.jpg
Is there a way to batch this process for the 1000's of images I have?

View 1 Replies View Relatedany difference between alpha layer and alpha channel? I mean has to be right? I just don't know what exactly that would be if there is. I'm trying to figure out some more stable uses for computer graphics when building textures with alpha layer or alpha channels. So far I get a flicker from opengl bug when using alphas. So I'm wondering if I use Alpha layer and something with a solid color underneath the geometry if I could achieve a more stable result where alpha sorting. Possibly clearing it up where my alpha layered geometry stays on top vs bleeding through at times it seems.

I am having all sorts of trouble with my setup - 32bit windows 7 and 32bit CS6. I have a 2TB hard disk (with 1.7 unused) and 8GB Ram installed.
I understand that this setup has a maximum amount of 1.7GB ram available to CS6 and this may possibly be the problem. (see the attachment)
My D800 NEF images are around 40MB each. I get out of ram messages in Photoshop and the same in Bridge. In Bridge the 100% lupe takes forever to activate and eventually after several images it says the 100% lupe is unavailable. If I purge the cache it is OK again for just a few images. There appears to be no problem with smaller files, jpegs etc.
I will change the setup to 64bit CS6 on Win7 64bit if this is the only way to rectify the problem.
Now that I have CS4 running on XP I'm trying to do some real work with it. First thing I do is disable tabbed windows and other new features as they have yet to prove themselves useful in my workflow. Perhaps I'll grow to appreciate them. But for now I'm just trying to get the app to work with the good ol' floating windows.
1) Can I stop new images opening with a Window that's glued to the top left corner of my screen? Past versions of PS just opened a floating Window. CS4 obliges me to 'unstick' the Window from the top left corner every time I open a new image. I've scoured the preferences but have yet to find any way to turn off this feature.
2) When grabbing the top bar of an open image window to move it on my screen I find it to be sluggish. With previous versions of PS one would grab the top of the image window and move it quickly on your screen to wherever you want. The response was pretty will instantaneous. With CS4 there seems to be a very slight lag whereby the move is occurring slightly behind the cursor moving it. It's not a huge lag. Just enough to get the sense that there's something amiss. I'll try it in Vista64 to see if the same thing is occurring there.
before the latest updates to photoshop CC one could export from LR a series od Raw images to HDR Pro, create a 32bit file, save and editin LR or CR.
Now, when creating the 32bit file photshops promts a button for edting in Camera Raw instead of the usual "create file" (then to be saved and opened in LR). Which is ok, but if I edit the file in CR and then open it as a Tiff in LR the adjustments done in CR are not visible in the sliders, but not only, the images is of bad quality in LR.
Several of the filters I use regularly don't have 64 bit versions.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI just downloaded photoshop CS6 and I went to import video frames to layers but it says I need to use the 32 bit version. I had the same thing happen to me when I had CS5 so I looked up how to switch it and found out that I just had to right click on the photoshop app, click "Get Info", tick a box that says "32bit" and reopen the app. Well, I tried that with Photoshop CS6 but there is no option for 32 bit and now I don't know what to do.

So is it something I can fix or should I contact Intel about it?Here is the basic OS/video info:

I am trying to install Photoshop CS6 on my Windows 8 64-bit PC. While in the loader option I chose both 64 and 32 bit installations, I only get 64-bit to install and work properly, and the Program Files (x86) protoshop cs6 folder stays empty.
I tried to reinstall 32-bit alone, uninstall and full reinstall, I also checked for security permissions in Program files (x86)/Adobe and in Common files which seem OK, Administrators, Creator Owner and System have the desired Full control permissions and finally I apllied the latest adobe_creative_suite_cleaner_tool fix on all products and tried reinstall, to no avail.
