Im i trying to save some time and manual work by using an action or script to do most of the work for me, but cant seem to figure out how to do it right. Now its for a jewellery customization site, where you can choose ring, stone, color etc.
I have all images as separate images (on white background) but placed in exact the same position, so they can be placed right on top of each other and exported. Even though its a fairly simple process this would take a long time, as there are many combinations!
In webdev it is not unsual that design involves multiple variations like "pages" where mostly header and footer stays the same while its "content" (the page itself) changes. And then simulate a navigation by means of hiding and unhiding each respective "page" folder. Where also the site's menu tranforms as "navigation" evolves.
It is a bit frustrating in order to achieve this to have to create a lot of duplicated menu folders and place'em under every "page" just to represent this selected links. And then if you have to redesign that menu, you have it spreaded throught several folder locations.
I think being able to hide/unhide linked layers at a glance of a click would be nice to have and would allow you a more strealined work while redesigning linked portions.
if i hide some layers or do something in photoshop it doesn't show the changes but when i choose fit to screen/actual pixel option then it shows the changes.Is there any manual autorefresh option in photoshop in settings.??
Is there a way to create a keyboard shortcut to hide a layer? I'm building a drawing by tracing a bitmap on a separate layer. I turn the layer visibility off & on a lot to check my work.
I have so many objects, the little eyeball in the object manager keeps scrolling out of its window .
there are a very strange thing when I select some layers with Move Tool (V). An example:
I have too many layers. If I hide or block some of them and I try to select with the Move Tool (clicking on any layout point and dragging) I can't select it. This is the right behaviour.
The problem appears if those layers are in a group and I hide or block the group. In this case the layers are selected with the same operation. And this is tedious when you have too many layers grouped and you want to block all of them.
Summarize:
- If I block each layer individually, all is right; I can`t select it.
- If I block the group, I can select the layers, and this is wrong.
I don't seem to have those options (show/hide Parent) when right clicking on folders in the tree. The way I have been organizing in LR4 is by creating a new top level folder and dragging the individual folders into that new folder (within LR).
I will be moving to a new computer soon and want to make sure the move goes well...
I loaded a partial customization file by CUI dialog. I would like to programmatically hide / show the menus and toolbars, so when you restart AutoCAD to be permanently hidden or visible.
Whenever i click on Show or hide the Attribute Editor And the Channel Box/ Layer Editor are working fine But when i press Show or hide the tool Settings its not coming up..
Sometimes I turn various parts (visibility) off in an assembly. If I want to turn them all on again without doing it one at a time or selecting them all individually, I find IV turns everything OFF first, then I have to reselect them all again and turn evrything on. Can it be done in one step instead of two? IV2008SP1
there is a way to show or hide a specific object (not the layer it is sitting in) in a specified viewport without affecting its visibility in model space or other viewports. I came across a .vlx file from www.cadstudio.cz/dl./hideshow.vlx that does the job of showing or hiding an object in model space( and hence in all viewports).
Is there a way to hide/show title safe area in Illustrator?I know I can turn it on or off using the artboard options, but for ease of workflow I'd like to be able to switch it on/off as I can do using 'Cmd :' for guides?
I know I can show/hide video rulers and I have mapped this as a keyboard shortcut... but can't find any way to do the same with title/action safe?
I have a project in Edge with a couple of screens as symbols on layers in the main timeline. I've been trying to write a function in the global scope that I can call from all the buttons, to show and hide screens.
So far I have a function that looks like this:
function mainScreenOut (){ sym.$("screen1").hide(); }
But this and many variations don't seem to work. how to use these jquery commands properly?
I'm trying to hide all items in a document (and store each items original visibility state), iterate user pre-selected items and perform an export for each item in selection (I've got this part covered), and finally restore the visibility state of each item again (here's where the storing of original visibility state is needed).
I've found that I can iterate all items in the document using app.activeDocument.pageItems[i] where i is the page item identified by the i-th index in the pageItems collection.
What is not clear, however, is how to get the visibility state of this page item. Indeed, there is a property visbilityVariable associated with page items, but when I try to "inspect" its content using an alert message, I get "undefined".
Are there better ways to iterate all items in a document? Ideally, I'd like to access all items regardless of wether they're path items, group items, text frame items or what have you. I need this collection to read/write the visibility state of each individual item.
I have a bunch of discipline specific menu files as partial cui's to my enterprise menu. I don't want to show them all, as some users may not need them all. What I would like to have is a menu item
Load Menus ->
Civil Electrical Mechanical Structural
and when they click on one of them the relevant menu file is made visible in the current workspace. Is there a simple way to do this?
I'm looking for a way to hide a layer in model space, but show it on ONLY my paperspace tab. Problem is, most of my work is in model space (different aspect of this drawing), and although I could pull the objects through to the paperspace tab, it just wouldn't be the way I feel it should be (3d objects should stay in model space imo). However, for the most part I don't need to see it in model space (except for checking 3d elevations of line segments), the finish product is a printed 2d top view.
I saw some years ago a 3D drawing where hidden lines were dashed after hide command. I tried to find out, how it was made, but nothing. Today I need this solution, but I can't find information, how is it possible.
I want to add the same 3 adjustment layers to about 20 photos and then in scripts, export layers to files, so that each photo includes the adjustments.
I have now exactly the same problem as below with over 1000 images, I have saved them in .psd that has over 100 layers each. On top of those there is curves and levels layer that affects every layer below. I want to save all images to .jpg for videoedit with those curves at least. I don't want to merge same curves 100 times. Is there a solution in phothoshop cs5 or cs6 available? Would save alot of working hours. All I have got by this far is blank white images of adjustment layers and non adjusted jpg-files.
This discussion was opened in 2010 and I quess this is same problem: " How to merge adjustment layers to hundreds of layers?
Jul 28, 2010 10:38 AMSay I have a photoshop File with 100 layers.
And say I created 3 adjustment layers on top of those 100 layers to get the adjustments that i want for those layers. I'm happy with the adjustments but Then I NEED to merge those 3 adjustment layers to ALL those 100 layers.
Is there a way to easily permanently apply the adjustments to each of those layers without having to do it manually? I absolutely need to merge the adjustments to the seperate layers because of how the layers are being used in a seperate 3d program.
So far what I've been doing is duplicating the adjustment layers for each layer and merging them to said layers separately.. I wish I could just right click the adjustment layer and Tell it to merge to everylayer it affects or apply to every layer underneath it!
While working in Photoshop, I closed down some of the tools (all of the boxes on the right of the screen, such as Layers, Navigator, Color, etc.). When I shut down Photoshop and then relaunched it, all of these boxes disappeared. Now, I know that I can bring them back by clicking on then on the Windows menu in Photoshop, but isn't there someplace in Preferences where I can return everything to default, the way it was when I first installed Photoshop? I have been unable to find this magic key anywhere in Photoshop.
I have a very complex graphic with many elements and I would like to find a way to hide layers based on a list. In the documentation that there is a way to tell if a layer is hidden, but didn't see anything about a way to actually to control the hide/unhide property. Is this possible?
I have this image in PS with several layers. I have put the last layers into the image from Illustrator, and I want to copy the image back into Illustrator, so I can print 6 on a page, but when I do, all the lastest layers don't show up. What do I need to do, to get all the layers?
