Photoshop :: Merge To HDR Not Choosing Proper...
Feb 12, 2009
Hi, I'm trying to merge photos that I shot for HDR from Bridge. When I select a few photos and use the command 'Tools/Photoshop/Merge to HDR/', the images open up in the dialog OK but the exposures it is 'guessing' are all wrong. It is selecting my underexposed shot as the 'EV 0', with my properly exposed and over exposed shots listing as 'EV +1.64' and 'EV -4' respectively. This is all wrong.
- Is there a way to change what Photoshop selects as the exposures?
I tried moving them, all sorts of click combinations, etc. It appears that they are stuck. When I shoot, it is -2EV, 0EV, +2EV.
Now interestingly, when I first open the photos in Photshop, then launch the 'Merge to HDR' dialog, adding the open files, it picks up the exposure just fine. This is just adding a few more steps to the workflow.

I am using CS5 and in Filter > Texturizing there are just the four pre=set textures, Canvas, Burlap etc. In the older versions of Photoshop it was possible to choose a texture using a file of one's own. Is this possible n CS5 ?

I am using a font called Metron for a logo, but I am having some trouble choosing an additional font to accompany it for the the text used elsewhere. Does anyone have any suggestions for this? The Metron font is quite distinctive, so it needs something that is unique in it's own right, yet subtle and unobtrusive and that offers a good balance with the Metron.

I have a winXP set up with and ATI Radeon X800 graphics card. I currently use a Lacie 22 Blue as my main monitor and a cheapo flatscreen to make it a two monitor set up. The Lacie is about 5 years old and I would like more desk space.
I would like to go to a 24 inch flat screen.
I don't understand all the techie stuff about monitors and I have been reading. Most reviews I've seen to do with monitors seem geared towards viewing HD video and video editing. I only work with photos.
I can't afford those high-end monitors although salivate when I see 'em.
I use Photoshop CS4.

I am replacing my existing 512MB GeForce 9800 GTX+ is because Photoshops Graphics accelerated features are really unstable with it. They either stop working or worse make Photoshop crash. Processing photos is the main use, I don't use it for gaming or anything.

In a tutorial one of the instructions was to choose color #3E6CAA for the background and #76B6F4 as the foreground. How do I get these colors?

How do you choose fonts to go with various images? Do you just cycle through the ones you got until you find what looks right? Or for certain things do you generally use a set of fonts, like this font that font and another font to use usually when making an ad (or go more specifically? and go for ceratin fonts when the subject matter is cars, as opposed to nature, as opposed to computers, as opposed to people etc.). Are there guides to choosing fonts that I just can't find? General fonts used with fantasy artwork, general fonts used with sci-fi artwork, fonts used with something else more broad or more specific?
And how would a knowledge of typography help exactly with choosing fonts, or would it help?
I'm just asking this out of pure curiosity, sort of... And the fact that I'm not too fond of trying to pick out fonts for an image/sig/something by having to cycle through all of the fonts that I have. I'm just wonderin' if, when I'm working on something more on the fantasy side, a certain group of fonts generally look better, or when with something else, another set of fonts generally look better.

Why cant I save a cdr job with all the merge fields setup so that next time I open the file I can go straight to 'merge to new document'.
So Ive set up a 10 to view raffle tickets job. Inserted 20 numerical merge fields, positioned, resized, applied font size color alignment etc etc etc.. Takes ages..... So then merge to a new document, works nice and I can save it fine.Â
There are a hundred reasons why i may have to close the 'master' merge file before the job has been successfully printed. It may be a repeat print job.
Any which way I really dont get why the live merge data fields are lost on closing the file.

CS5 had an option in Preferences of choosing type sample: "huge". This appears to be missing from CS6 - or is the option somewhere else?

TI go over my photo and remove dust specs in LR5, then choose to edit the image further in Photoshop CS5 (Right click or Cmd+E -> Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS5). When the photo opens in Photoshop all the Spot Removals I have done are *gone*! I can not say I have noticed this before, and I have been using LR5 since it became available. But now nothing works - It keeps doing this, no matter how many times I close PS and LR and re-open. Spot Removal just keeps getting reset when I wanna edit a photo in Photoshop.

I shot a video of it, which can be viewed or downloaded here

properly resizing a color logo. I opened the logo in photoshop 1200dpi by 800dpi I need to resize it to 300dpi. When I do it loses its crispness, the diagonal edges show significant aliasing. I need the curves and edges to remain crisp.

Running Vista and CS3. I have downloaded a logo from a client that is a blue rectangle with reversed out type in the middle. The image is a JPEG but at full size looks fine displayed in Photoshop CS3 and is showing a ppi as a little over 300. And yet when I file>place the image into InDesign the type comes out completely pixelated to the point of not even being readable. I've tried saving it as a PSD and TIF but they all still show the same pixeled type. It seems like I'm missing something simple but I'm at a loss. Can anybody suggest what would cause this?

Using the color picker, I select a hue on the right side and then I select a color and a value for the color by dragging up or down in the field. If I then take the hue slider and drag it to a different hue and do not touch the location of the circle in the color field, is the new color the same value as the previous color?

My designer wants a retainer of $3,000 but I can do most of my own stuff in Photoshop. Sometimes I get stumped though, and just need a 30 second tutorial. So I am coming here.Â
Â
how to change it from a square image to one with a rounded top and bottom-right corner.  Also a 2 pixel shadow going up the right side and along the bottom. I can manually draw in those two pixels easily enough. But the corners look terrible when I try to manually do it.
Â
I have been cropping the new image to the proper size, and then drawing in the two pixel fade on the side and bottom. Then trying to pixel by pixel create the rounded edges.
Â
Before you say "Its a drop shadow!" please remember, in order for me to copy that exact drop shadow, I would need to know all their settings, colors, pixel widths, etc. All I have is a flat, finished image, so I have none of that information. Plus, I don't know how to do a drop shadow on a curved corner, which deletes the original squared corner on the image.Â

I wanted to do a photoshop painting and then possibly have it printed as a set of giclee prints to give away for Christmas. The size of the print would probably be like 12 x 14.
It's been a long time since I did print work, can I still assume that if I set my PS document to 12 x 14 @ 300 dpi that I'll be able to get a quality print? Or do I need to go more - or can I go less?

I have a full and functioning version of Photoshop 6 extended on my MacBook Pro with mountain lion 10.8.3. I installed a new hybrid hard drive a few days ago. I had backed up my computer to an external hard drive via Super Duper. I recopied to the new hard drive and everything seemed to be working properly. My problem is I have a new configurator panel from a third party that I am trying to install and the extension manager that comes with the downloaded file won't install it on a copy of Photoshop 6 that's on my operating hard drive. I can make changes to Photoshop 6 on the backup drive. Somehow it seems that signals a been crossed. There are some folders in the application support folder that I transferred from the backup drive to the laptop drive but that didn't work either. Do I need to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop 6?

I have downloaded CS6 on two computers Running 10.7.5. I have been operating on CS5 with no problems.Running CS 6 when I open a nef and try to save as it shows png as the save as if I try and change it a jpg it shows as.iff. When I open a tiff and try to do a save as the, format is empty when I click and set as psd it will do the psd. If I try and save as jpg it changes to a .ff file
Â
This is the same thing on both machines.I did try to run pixel bender but it does not operate on cs6. I had akvis lightshop as a plugin but I Got these messages and I Removed it.I still have the stand alone akvis but not the plugin.
Â
I have downloaded the New upgraded Nik software on cs6 on both machines I tried to put a screen shot but this will not accept it [URL]...

I downloaded some trial plugins and then removed them and ever since, CS5 is not working well. Sometimes when I open it and go to file open to open an image, everything is grayed out and I have to close down and re-launch. When I open an image and want to look at the file info, everything freezes and I have to use task manager to close down Photoshop.
As well, my bridge is not working correctly. I want to uninstall and then reinstall, but I thought that somewhere that I read there are specific ways to do that or else the program thinks you're trying to load it on another computer..?

I understand that backuping my catalog will save all my adjustments in Lightroom. However, I jump over to edit externally in Photoshop often. I understand that to create a Tiff file next to my original file. However, isn't just backing up the catalog missing the Tiff file now in the backup?

Choosing between different trays of a printer in this situation:
Â
Tray #1:Â 8.5 x 11 white paper.
Tray #2:Â 8.5 x 11 transparency vellium.
Â
The Illustrator reference doesn't list a way to choose between trays. The only way I can see to select the paper you want is by size. But what if they are the same size, just different material?Â
Â
I'm wondering if I would have to set up a custom paper in the printer itself and have the printer report it in a "PaperInfo" call? Or, is there something that isn't in the reference that would enable me to choose the tray I need?

Has Lightroom 4 addressed the problem of choosing which monitor to show your secondary display? I know this was a requested feature on LR3. How do you set it?

I'm using LR 2.6 on a Mac running 10.7.4 (Lion).
Â
The program keeps crashing/closing ( not freezing in screen) when I try to change the destination folder when importing.
Â
i've not encountered tis problem before. It's just appeared since my upgrade to Lion.
Â
It occurs regardless of the camera being used (or import from external HD). If I import to the currently selected folder everything works fine. And all editing functionality seems normal when working with images currenly in my LR library.
Â
The crash occurs when selecting the destination folder and hitting "choose". That is to say it's before hitting the final "import button", and is definitely triggered by choosing the alternate folder.

Illustrator has a user section. Photoshop CS5 will display your custom brushes in the preset manager.
Â
I use a Mac OSX 10.8. When I download brushes and install them in the User/Application Support/PS/Presets/Brushes they will appear in the preset manager without having to 'load' brushes each time. Yet, when you make a new preset and save the .abr file you can not save them to the proper location since Lion has the library folder hidden by default.
Â
For instance, when downloading brushes, it's easier to combined multiple sets into one presets. I don't want 20 different smoke abr files. Yet, I can't save them to Application Support.
Â
No one has a clear understanding of how this works (at least not on the internet.) The best thread (from Adobe forums) I found from 2011 stated I should do the above steps, but then a few other users reported thats out of fashion.

I have to make it possible to insert table by choosing any of it's corners. I cannot get it to work with choosing bottom corners - I can't get the exact height of the table.
The sample code of the one-row table is:
Â
acApp.Document doc = acApp.Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;Editor ed = doc.Editor;Transaction tr = ed.Document.Database.TransactionManager.StartTransaction();try{ BlockTable bt = (BlockTable)tr.GetObject(doc.Database.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForRead); Table tb = new Table(); tb.InsertColumns(0, 24, 1); tb.SetRowHeight(4); tb.Columns[0].Width = 24; tb.Columns[1].Width = 24; tb.Cells[0, 0].TextHeight = 2; tb.Cells[0, 0].TextString = "some text"; tb.Cells[0, 0].Alignment = CellAlignment.MiddleRight; tb.Cells[0, 1].TextHeight = 2; tb.Cells[0, 1].TextString = other_text_from_variable; tb.Cells[0, 1].Alignment = CellAlignment.MiddleCenter; tb.HorizontalCellMargin = 0; tb.VerticalCellMargin = 0; tb.GenerateLayout(); tb.Position = // exactly... what should I do here? BlockTableRecord btr = (BlockTableRecord)tr.GetObject(bt[BlockTableRecord.ModelSpace], OpenMode.ForWrite); btr.AppendEntity(tb); tr.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(tb, true); tr.Commit();}catch (Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime.Exception ex){ ed.WriteMessage("
ERR: " + ex.Message);}finally{ tr.Dispose();}
Â
Now... I'm trying to make 1-row table width the height 4. I should set tb.Position by just subtracting 4 from the Y-value of the clicked point... NOT.
tb.Height gives me 4. But I get the table with height 5.667. And I can't just use that value for subtracting, because even then, bottom-right corner is about 0.2 above or below clicked point... (X-value is correct and equals the clicked point's X-value.)
The same thing happens when I insert a table with the number of rows depending on the number of the records selected from DB. The same thing happens, when I use obsolete .NumRows and .NumColumns. What am I missing?

I have generated a batch of several thousand drawings, and then realized that my 'Page 3' paper space is positioned over page 2 in the model! Is there a way that I can tell 'Page 3' to change position to co-ordinates of my choosing, using only script, so that I can write a batch program to change them all?
My only other option is to correct the error in the master drawing and generate all the thousands of drawings again, which is why I'm keen to explore alternatives!
