I'm not talking about simply making a layer folder with various elements grouped inside. What I'm trying to do is create different screen instances of a website using a feaure that turns on specific layers, allowing me to save that "layer visible" combination. I did this a few years ago and now cannot remember how it was done. To give an example:
I have a layer folder called "main navigation" in my Photoshop file. This main navigation folder has tons of sublayer elements that include the menu itself, hover states, drop down states, etc. I have another layer folder that contains elements for a specific web page.
What I used to do was this: I could turn on one of the specific web page folders, then turn on the active state element in my Main Navigation folder. So now the page looks as if it would for that specific screen instance. At this point, I was able to create a "Layer Group" that saved this specific set of layers that were turned on (visible), and name it.
Does this feature still exist in Photoshop? I can't seem to find it anywhere, or find any documentation on how to implement it.
Sometimes when I drag a new symbol instance to my artboard and resize it, the instance looses it alignement with the pixel grid.
This happens despite the fact that...
I checked the box for pixel grid alignement when I created the documentthe symbol option is set for align to pixel gridthe original shape in the symbol is aligned to pixel grindthe original shape has the align to pixel grid check box in the transform panel checked So why when I resize the symbol instance does it break the pixel grid alignmnet and result in a blurred 1px stroke?
I'm making an image which has a lot of layers, so I wondered if it is possible to group a few layers so they appear as one layer? Merging them won't work, then the layer styles vanish,
For selecting objects, I must have hit a buttom trying to figure something else out and now I can't select objects without touching them and clicking on them, I used to be able to pick whole sections.
Suppose I have some groups and I want to make some of them unique. But I don't want them to be unique among them, I want them to be instances of each other so when I modify one they all change, but of course, not the original groups.
It's not easy to explain, but allow me to try... I have 5 lamps, they are instances so when I change one the others change also, now let's say I want to make 2 of them unique, but I want them to be 'linked', so when I change one of these 2, the other gets affected also, but not the other 3 of course.
I just discovered survey figure groups and am playing around with them. Great way to bring certain figures in & out. What seems crazy is that I have to check them on/off one at a time. Am I missing something or is this the only way to add figures to a figure group?
I just learned (after 16 years...) that it's been possible to drill down through successive compound objects within groups without using the new V7 feature "Edit inside".
I'd always used Ctrl+Click within a group to select the object in it I want, but could never select just a group that was within--only a single object. But apparently Ctrl+Click is only intended to select the bottom-most (leaf) object of the group (tree). If instead you use Ctrl+Alt+Click, you can click through each level of a group.
So for example if you made two groups of 3 objects and then grouped the two groups together, you can select the whole group first, then one of the other groups within, then one of the objects within that group.
I can't believe I didn't know this. Shows what I know. And what amazes me more is that I didn't figure it out given that you can Alt+Click to select through overlapping objects.
CS6 with my image make my screen BLINK, sometimes it blink in black, sometimes it blink as transparency, when i do something in my image all my image get black or it blink's again, how i solve that??
its like all the time this blinks, when i work with more than 1 layer i cant choose other layer that all blinks, i cant move things in my image that all blinks.
It seems difficult to make small on screen movements without the tool jumping. Would it be better use a low DPI mouse or a high DPI one? Wouldn't you get better control with a low DPI one?
Each time I open a new image in ACR and then open image the editing screen reverts to QUICK mode and a smaller screen size. I then have to click to change it to EXPERT mode and then click to make it full screen. I never had this problem with PSE 10.
(I am bringing RAW images in from outside and not via Organiser.)
I've just moved back to windows and have an odd thing I don't remember happening before. Every time I open an additional file, a new photoshop icon shows up on the Taskbar (windows 7). The way I remember it working previously, there was only one icon on the task bar regardless of how many files are open.
I am a new user of X4 and have used X2 for only about six months so some of my questions may seem lame, but here they are.
First, I upgraded to X4 to get rid of that annoying AVCHD blip problem (it worked). But, I have become increasingly frustrated that the quality of my DVDs are still fairly poor to my mind. I have been taking HD videos of my daughter playing soccer and the videos look good on my computer (in clip mode, anyway, as opposed to project mode, which probably takes more processing power than I have). However, they don't look that good to me when I watch DVDs I have created.
The camcorder is a Sony HDR – CX150 and its native MTS files are 1440x1080. After some reading, I discovered that standard DVD conversion plummets the resolution to 720x480, or 480p. So, perhaps that is part of the answer for why a standard DVD format of the soccer game doesn't look so nice on a 37" 720P or 1080i LCD Vizio TV? The 720x480 picture is being stretched to fit? OK, but why does motion look so bad? The image is decent when people are standing still, but I see a lot of blur and, sometimes, streaking when the camera pans or people start to run. What can I do about that?
I tried upping the bitrate for the DVD MPEG settings (from 6800 to 9800), but that did not work. I thought perhaps I could try making an AVCHD DVD using the 1920x1080 resolution and play it on my Blu-ray player (a Samsung BD-P1590) to see if that might look good. It didn't. In fact, it seemed to be the same or even slightly worse.
So, how do I get the good quality videos I am taking to translate to the TV screen? I have tried two different DVD players and TVs as well as my laptop.
I'm here with 2013 SP2 64 bit Build 200 and two screens. Left screen is graphics area, Browser is on the left of right screen. Graphics is ATI Fire Pro V7800 with driver 9.3.3.3000.
In video (zipped MP4) you see a cutout of both screens, think of screens changing at the left of the browser.
Now, in many cases, after doing an operation, the browser is jumping back to the middle of my graphics in the left screen.
I need to have an image appear as full screen initially and then reduce in size and sit top left of screen so that it remains visible, whilst other images come and go across the remainder of the screen.
I am unable to save .pdf versions of color separations. I followed the tutorials (changed all colors to cmyk or spot colors, selected the printer adobe post script, changed the output to Separations (host-based), desected the colors I didn't want on the separations), but something goes wrong when I save. When I click save, I am given no option to save the separation as a .pdf. The program seems to be unable to save the separation as any sort of readable file. In the drop down box where it should provide a .pdf option, it merely says "All Files." If I save my separation using this option, then Illustrator creates a file unreadable by Acrobat Reader.
I shoot in 16:9 on the canon t3i, however when I upload my videos to YouTube there is a black bar on the left and right. The canon team said there should be a setting in premiere to make my videos full screen.
I have a three button mouse. I can use Shift + Center button to orbit my drawing. problem it, the stuff is always flying off the screen because the pivot point is at the center of the drawing / part / assembly/etc. This annoys me to no end. How do I change the Orbit Pivot to default to the center of the screen?
IProblem 1: Tool Palettes on top of image. I'm using a 15" thinkpad laptop, with I think 1024 x whatever highest resolution. When I use Gimp, my screen real estate is being eaten up by the tool palettes more so than the image I'm trying to work on. I like the tool palettes - I'd like them to stay open - BUT what I'd really like is for the image to lay over top of the palettes, rather than the palettes lying over top of my image.
Problem 2: Zooming and scrolling in the image. I'm not too sure what was different about photoshop in this regard, but I'm having a bear of a time getting my images to zoom and scroll in the manner I was used to in photoshop. What can I change in the Gimp settings to make it behave more like photoshop in that regard? I found one setting to increase window size as the image zooms, but that was worse.
I like a lot of the aspects of Gimp, but these two things are preventing me from getting to use it very much presently.
I have a psd mockup located here. [URL]... - the last one.
inserting image in a proper way to getting the correct final result. I tried already but no succes. How to center the inserted image to the box. How to make image rotate and that fits to iphone screen?
I'm designing some screens for an retina display iPad and I just want the illustrator document on my 27" thunderbold monitor (at 109 ppi) to have the same physical dimensions as the physical iPad screen (7.75" x 5.81"). Maybe its so obvious that no one talks about how to do it. I do feel a little embarassed that I haven't figured this out.
Regardless of whenther I enter the doucment dimensions in inches or in pixels the resulting document is never the same pysicial size as the iPad's screen. And since Illustrator deals in vectors it doesn't have any notion of PPI that I can use to bring inches and pixels into alignement so that what I see on my monitor is the same physical size as what's in the iPad.
All i want is the AI document displayed on my monitor to be the exact same size as my iPad's screen.
Ever since installing SP3 if I double click a file out of the file system I get another instance of CD open with the correct page size but no graphics in it. I then have to close that CD session and drag the file into the already open instance of CD... no biggie but annoying as I double click out of the file explorer all the time.

I'had just met another matter for my Add-on. I noticed that when I instance a new drawing, while a first one is opened, when I load a new Form, this one keep all first drawing's properties. What could happen?
For example, I would like to add the layer list on a ComboBox.
My source:
Private Sub LayerBox_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load '***************************' '* Initialisation LayerBox *' '***************************' Using acTrans = acCurDb.TransactionManager.StartTransaction() acLyrTbl = acTrans.GetObject(acCurDb.LayerTableId, OpenMode.ForRead) For Each acObjId As ObjectId In acLyrTbl acLyrTblRec = acTrans.GetObject(acObjId, OpenMode.ForRead) ComboBox1.Items.Add(acLyrTblRec.Name) Next acObjId End Using End Sub
This source works, but if i instance a new form on a new drawing, the first drawing's layer list is kept and the new layer list on the second drawing is ignored!
I have created a block which contains various part numbers, with a description and some other bla bla, with a total number box, I issue this to clients to make the specification of product much easier. My idea was for people to use the quick select command to find how many instances there is of an object within the drawing.
As this is a slightly tedious process, as you have to physically type the part number then mentally take one instance off as it counts the number in the legend block as well.
Is there an addition/summary of object instances command I could use to make this process more dynamic and straightforward for the recipient/user of the block I issue?
I'm having trouble with the Revit ribbon not giving me the normal commands. For example, I'm trying to place a water closet family and the modify ribbon is giving me "Import Instance" instead of placement options (as in placing on a face) like it did just a couple days ago. I was placing these water closets in this same model just a few days ago and it was working fine. I've imported a few DWG files since then and now I'm getting this behavior. how do I undo it?
