Photoshop :: Can CS5 Or Light Room Utilize Double Precision Capable GPUs
Mar 27, 2013
I need to upgrade my graphics card. Question can either Photoshop CS5 or Light room 5 utilize double precision capable GPUs?
Background: Application- photographic RAW files editing (no video editing.) Software- Photoshop version CS5 and Light room version 4, OS- windows 7 64bit, Hardware- Asus P8P67 Deluxe LGA 1155, Intel Core i5 2400 processor, 16GB SDRAM, SSD (apps/temp files), HD (archives), current video card- Quatro FX 1500.
Converting a RAF Raw from Fujis X-E1 or X-Pro1 cameras will result in a harsh blurry JPG. The inCamera-Raw-Conversation or the RAW-Converting from Fujis delivered software results are much much better.
I know, even with Canons or Nikons LR4 does sometimes a better or a worse job than the dedicated converters, but with the new Fujifilm Cameras it is unusable.
Adobe may know the problem, because well known camera reviewer like dpreview stated there point on this topic already in their reviews. Also Fujifilm itself told me they reported the issues to Adobe.
My question here is, what is the current status? The new 7.3 or rather LR 4.3 do not give any improvements on this problem. Which is very disappointing, especially for early X-Pro1 owners.
I created a custom calibration in dng profile editor. I saved in both the global library and user don't see it showing up in light room calibration drop down only the built in stuff'
I am trying to create a Schedule that figures out Light Power density for each room. The first issue is getting Lights to register what room they are located in. The next issue is getting the room area parameter to show up in the available fields. It is funny b/c Volume shows up but not the room area. How hard could that have to been to add that to the available list since volume is there.
I have a project in wich rooms functionality is compromised. I don't know why the room tool doesn't recognise a simple room delimited by walls whose property divides rooms is set to yes. If I place a rectangle of rooms delimiters the room tool works properly instead. If I start a new project the tool works properly.
I am editing an old file set up by another firm that is used by our clients to keep track of room sizes etc, which has a room data table and room tags tied to area polylines. It has worked just fine on our 2013 Acad Architecture, but when I sent them (saved down to 2010) back to our client, using 2012 Acad Architecture, the tags disappear and the table is unpopulated.It seems like it must have something to do with the file originally being created way back when, along with some quirk between 2012 and 2013.
Just bought my first SSD drive (240GIG)and are about to set it up for the purpose of doing any Adobe CC work the fastest I can.
Obviously I have to install the Windows 7 Pro system onto the drive and Adobe files, I imagine that any work Adobe .psd/work files I should also keep on the drive?
So partition it like C: Windows 100GIG D: Program Files and Work Files 140GIG
Or should I add another drive E: so I can set scratch disks to it? Or can scratch disks just utilize my old non SSD drive? I imagine getting everything onto SSD would be the way to go, but thats only guessing.
I have CS6 and need to be able to utilize the open GL option but not sure what I need to do to make this work...trying to bring a 3D pdf into photpshop for animation. Screen simply reads "enable 3D view'.
I had no significant problem of creating a panorama picture by stitching HORIZONTALLY many (up to 35) pictures. Is PS capable of automatically stitching vertically too? The idea is to accomplish multi-raw panorama. That is, if in addition to a wide view, I want also the panoramic picture cover significant hight. The idea is to sweep the horizon at a certain vertical angle.
Then, sweep at a lower level and creating a panoramic view of both sweeps. If not fully automatic, then create a photomerge and create 2 panoramic picture. Then automatically stitch the two panoramas vertically.
I am able to create my own customizable brushes BUT I want more, WAY more. I want a brush capable of picking up a pixel or a few and transform it/them into a bokeh, JUST WHERE they are.
The only tutorials I found are about making brushes, customizing them to do what ever but they create the same thing all over even if different sizes, scattered or whatever. Nothing about being able to have one that selects what is underneath.
Blur radius does not work, I tried and tried and tried again. If I still have hairs it because they are too short to pull and if the walls are still standing around me it is because I am wearing a soft pillow to protect them against my aggressiveness toward them (my wife was tired of paying for repairs).
I have owned Photoshop CS3 and CS5. I have used these products across 3 different computers, OSX and Windows in several different versions. I have used 4 or 5 different printers and each and every time my images print offset to the left of the page with about an 1 inch blank space down the right edge of the page. Portrait or Landscape, it makes no difference. I have tweaked the settings in Photoshop and the operating system and printer settings endlessly, all to no avail.why Photoshop isn't capable of printing an image centered on the page or borderless. I am currently using Windows 8.1 beta, an Intel i5 based system, a Canon MG6220 printer with Photoshop 5.1 64 and 32 bit.
I am trying to reprocess some videos that I created several years ago that utilize AVI files, all of which are 640x480 15 FPS. I load the VSP file and all of the video clips load fine. I have no problems viewing the AVI files in Windows or in other video editing programs. If I try to view a clip in VS, VS Pro X4 aborts. If I just try to generate a video file (same as first clip), I get the message "No combination of intermediate filters could be found to make the connection."
I've also noted the VS X4 aborts if I try to utilize AVI files generated on my PC from video screen capture programs.
I am trying to utilize state sets so that I don't have to re render an entire scene to change one thing. For instance, in the attached image, I need to keep re rendering the floor patterns. So I created a state set where only the floor renders but obviously includes reflections and everything else from the model. I am getting these black clouds showing up though that I can't figure out what it is or where they are coming from.
I have just been turning off the other objects "Visible to Camera" to acheive this. what could be causing these clouds coming from the second floor?
I am wondering if the FEA in Inventor 2013 is capable of simulating a pipe under a point load and at what point the pipe fails. Its a simple 2in dia pipe supported by a vertical tube with a load of 'X' centered on the pipe.
I am trying to utilize Trimble's ability to export Points to an XML file. The XML file contains some additional Attribute data. I have created the new Point UDP's and also Created a new Point File Format. Here lies the Problem, when I go to the Insert Tab in the Ribbon and pick import from XML. It gives me no choices to select a Point File Format? It just imports the file with just PNEZD data only, and not my additional Attributes.
I am trying to animate a casino-like light board made of tens of light bulbs/leds. I thought the easiest way to do it would be creating a matrix of bulbs arranged by material ID and then design a pattern in multi sub-object materiel so I could somehow scrub through it and achieve animation effect. The material modifier allows to change ID for the whole object only and MaterialByElement shuffle ID`s in a random manner.
Everytime i press the shift key and quotation mark key for the double quotation mark to display on my text on PS cs5 doesn't work. It display a double arrow instead.
I am attempting to build a facsimilie enigma machine, I would like to know how best to create an effect so that when a key is pressed a corresponding letter appears to light up. Btw I am not looking for an animated image, I can take care of the transitions between on and off, I just need to create the two image states.
How do you lock the pivot point of a light to the light itself? I thought just adding a Axis node would move the light and pivot point but the pivot does not move. Is there a way of parenting them together?
How do I use the standard Revit can lights in a wood joist floor with drywall applied to the bottom? If I place in a suspended ceiling, can lights light up just fine. However, if I use them in the floor space of a wood joist floor, the light itself gets covered with the floor. How can I get the light to cut the floor out so I can see the light when it is rendered?
I dont do any freehand work and always require pixel precision, also I work with small resolutions <600px at 72dpi/16bit.
How the heck do I kill anti-aliasing, when i set the brush to 1px I only want 1px!?
I have 272x480, 72dpi/16bit image and 2px from the edges I want a 4px border. (path, drop shadow, inner glow, bev & emb, color overlay, stroke) then I want to bisect it in a number of locations. The problem is I cant do perfect pixle placement and get ugly overlapping. Last program I used I would select path and throw in x,y in all the locations I would want, then select the corner and bevel it to whatever I want. Using the rounded rect tool is nothing but a headache.
I am working in AutoCivil 3D 2014. I have created a curve table for a plat of an allotment with the precision for the curve length set to "Normal Rounding". My problem is that we have to show data for the individual lot frontage as well as the total length of the right-of-way curve length. So the individual lot frontages must add up to the total right-of-way length.
If they don't, I have to make an adjustment to one of the lengths. If I change the precision of the tag syle, there is no change in the table. I have attached a screen shot to show my results. The left picture shows a "span" style with the tag and curve length with the precision "truncated". On the right, is what is in the table. I would like to keep the table dynamic and not have to explode it. I think my problem lies in the table and the only way this can work is if I can override the one length in the table. But I have not been able to do that yet.
I'm trying to find a setting in Revit that will increase the precision on how Revit draws curves. For instance, With circles and arcs drawn in revit, you can zoom way in and will see it faceted instead of a smooth curve. When you export the file into autocad, it puts vertices at the same spots as was shown on the screen in Revit. Is there a setting in Revit to increase the number of vertices so when I export the file into autocad, at least the number of vertices increases and the curves look more curvy and not so segmented? Basically I have a user who drew signage artwork in Revit, and we need it in Illustrator. There's not enough time to redraw it all in illustrator, so we know it will be segmented no matter what, but wanted to know if Revit has a setting that will increase the number of vertices hence making it less segmented visually. I recall theres a setting for this in AutoCAD, just don't know about Revit.
