When I start CS4 (32bit) Extended it says Stonehenge and "DEV" at the end. Is this some sort of pre-release version? Or, am I running the proper production version that I purchased?
After opening CS4 (32bit) Extended most of the file menu is dimmed. I cannot even do a File < Open. I can use bridge to open a file and this problem clears up for subsequent File menu issues. What is going on here?
Turning on and off the eye in the layers pallet has no effect on the image until I click on image. Is this a new feature? If it is, it is a crazy new feature. How do you turn it off?
3rd party plug-ins are problematic in the 32 bit version. In the 64 bit version they just show up. I guess that is to be expected though.
I am using the 3D functions of CS6 and I noticed a bunch of options either moved around or removed completely. Well, more likely is that I'm just not able to find them. Anyway, one of the functions I have not yet been able to find is the "Return to Initial Camera Position" button. It used to appear in the control panel but not anymore.
In order to get the object and camera back to their initial position I could just go into the history panel and back up to when I first opened the object but that kind of defeats the purpose.
How can I move both handles symmetrically after the initial point is set?
pen tool:
1) drop a point 2) drop another point and drag (both handles move symmetrically in distance from point and angle) 3) finish your shape 4) switch to Direct Selection Tool 5) select one of the new points and move the handles (angle changes but distance from does not)
Here's a quick vid

I run in to this all the time. I'll quickly set top of a curve, make a mistake and then want to go back and symmetrically extended both handles. Right now I have to set the distance on each side independently and it's never perfectly symmetrical again.
I am running the latest version of PS CC on a MacBook Pro OS 10.8.5 with 16GB of ram. When I started my computer this morning an update from Adobe came up so I ran it. Now the move tool and the free transform function are not working. Literally nothing happens when I click drag with the move tool and when I try to use free transform I get an error message I've never seen:
"Could not transform because the initial bounding rectangle is empty.."
I was working on this computer last night using PS on the exact same files and did not run into this problem. Perhaps it was something in the update I ran this morning? The description for the update claimed it added a new version of Camera Raw and added new camera profiles. I don't see how, but its possible that the update effected the way the tools work, or in my case not work.
I made an initial selection of a person and selected Refine Edge. I simply want to take the person from his current location and place him somewhere else.
1. Are there any general guidelines for how much feather to add? 2. What about for Radius? 3. And Smooth?
I'm playing with the sliders, though I'm wondering if there is a range that I should try staying within for best results?
I've got CS3 and working on a document. I'm typing in text but nothing is coming up on my document. The cursor is not flashing but the text I've written is shown as a layer.
I tried selecting Free Transform and I'm getting the message:
"Could not transform because the initial bounding rectangle is empty"
Drawings are only plotting the first viewport inserted into paperspace, and will only plot live paperspace work if there are no viewports at all... this is a new problem, but has hit an entire set of drawings!
When opening a drawing, since I've installed 2013, I don't have an initial view or preview of the drawings I'm selecting. In the open box, the "Initial View" or "Select initial view is unchecked and won't let me put a check mark in so I can review the drawing before opening.
After installing all products within Building Design Suite Ultimate 2013 and/or Infrastructure Design Suite Ultimate 2013 I try to open AutoCAD 2013 and get the attached screen. It just grinds and try to open but always shows "not responding". I've read posts that suggest uninstalling and re-installing. I've done this several times. I've used the Microsoft Fix-It engine to completely erase from the PC. I have even just installed the AutoCAD portion and it will not open. Each time I reinstall it asks me to supply all proper credentials, product code, etc. It shows green check marks so I know my codes are correct.
I've tried opening other programs and the only successful one is Revit. Am I to point the start-up of the programs to the licenses or something.
I am using Revit 2013 and I am rendering in the Cloud and my renderings are not turning out as well as I want them to. I was wondering what the intial settings under the graphics should be? like what shadows I should use? how high the exposure should be? Even when I turn the sun completely off the sun still shows through the windows. My renderings are also showing up grainy.
Basically I am following a tutorial which says that when you create a loft from a path and two shapes, the loft should still be linked to the shapes, so if you resize one, the loft would change, but that is not happening for me. I am using 2014 so I don't know if this feature has changed, or if you access it in a different way?
When you create your own template part file and change the "Initial View Extents" setting in Document Settings on the Modelling Tab. Does this affect the behavior of the initial view extents when re-opening a part file created from this template?
FYI - I recently created a new template part file so that the sketch gridline spacing was more relevant to the size of parts I create. I like to use gridlines while in sketch mode because it is a good visual indicator that I'm in sketch mode. On opening a new part file that referenced to my new template, I noticed that the initial view extents meant only a couple of gridlines were visible due to the zoom level. I therefore tweaked my template file by increasing the initial view extents by a factor of 4 (400mm x 200mm).
The problem now is when opening a part file created from this template, the zoom level seems to snap to the customised view extents and not to the physical extents of the part. Right clicking the View Cube and re-setting the "Fit to View" has no effect. This feature seems broken now that I use modified initial view extents.
I'm working on a FEA of a climbing carabiner (oval-shaped; one side of the oval is a gate which opens and closes allowing a rope into the carabiner).
The gate of the 'biner has a hook which attaches to the "nose" of mainbody/biner. However, this hook does not engage until the biner slightly deforms.
I've attempted to use the separation/no sliding contact option, but the solver behaves as if there is no contact occuring. The nose simply passes right through the gate hook.
The initial gap of the system is about 0.040". That means the nose must deflect 0.040" before the contact surface comes into play.
Is there a way to make it, by default, place opened SVG files on an artboat that is positioned at {x: 0, x: 0}?
I'm using [URL] to generate shapes for usage with EaselJS, but this extension makes it's calculations based on the document not artboard. Right now when I open SVG files they get centered in the document workspace which skews calculations using Drawscript.
If I copy the SVG and then paste it in a new document it works (because new documents appear to place the initial artboard at {x: 0, y: 0}), but I don't want to have to do that for the 400+ SVG's that I need to use the extension with.
I often use the export option "Choose folder later". When using this preset, however, the initial folder it navigates to upon clicking export keeps defaulting back to a library folder that I don't want exports going to. How do I change the initial folder on this export so it's the root photos folder, or desktop, etc?
The Select Initial view checkbox in the standard file open dialogue has moved in 2013 from just above the File Name label to the file list window. Aside from the fact that it looks totally out of place design wise I find it obscures the file list. A way to revert to the previous behavior, or, even better, get rid of it all together because I never use it.
We are currently working on a big project which contains hundreds of drawings. We're using the sheet set & are very happy with with it. I have one question: How can you change the initial state of the sheet set manager. When I open my sheet set, some subsets are always expanded. I would like my sheet set to close all subset when I initially open the sheet set.
I start psp and the TAB on the left hand side (which shows my collections) flickers as if it is continuously trying to load. After about 2 mins it stops and I can continue as normal
After creating a solid and made some cutting, notching etc. the finished length is not the same as the initial extruded solid. so to get the length of the final solid ,
1. I would project geometry , and get the extreme end to get the finish length,this reference dim is now shown in parameter,
2. Go to parameter and change this ref dim name to "length" ,
3. Check the export box ,
4. Right click this ref dim to change the custom property format
5. Where i would uncheck the "units string" box
All these steps to extract the length of a single part , so just imagine if my assembly consist of 50 parts, i would do this 50 times! and usually i have almost a hundred assembly to work everytime.
The following happened in LR4, I installed RC2 hoping it may cure it but problem remains:
Photos in whatever module cannot dispaly images after having worked properly for a while in any module no image display but grey rectangles... asking for "display in the explorer" shows in superposition that images are ther...
catalogue seems ok (structure and all, metadata are ok, in the development module memory has been kept of photos adjustment...
Re-opening catalog or optimizing does not have any effect....
Quiting LR is just abrupt with no asking for back-up...
Frequently when I import raw Nikon files to lightroom 4 I initially see a picture with tone and white balance I really like. during this time (2 to 10 seconds) the histogram indicates that it is calculating. When the histogram is finished calculating the picture changes with bad tone (exposure, contrast ...). You can go and manually change the tone settings but it can take sometime and I would rather be able to quickly return to the picture settings that was initially presented. Is there a short cut or easier way?
I have 2 separate image files and wish to create one new image file comprised of the two initial images on the left and right. Is that possible (and novice practical) with the software?
