Opening a 640x480 8 bit .psd file stored on a local machine is taking 30 seconds or more...unless I unplug the network cable. Then it opens instantaneously. It can be any file; I've tested more than one.
While I'm waiting for the file to be opened, I can see short bursts of outbound network activity.
I'm just curious why Bridge would default to Fireworks for PNG files? I pretty much use PS exclusively for my image work and I'm not up to speed on FW at all. Is there something FW offers that I'm missing out on?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI’m currently having a serious problem with my Photoshop CS4 where it continuously crashes, for no apparent reason, since July 16, 2013. I have done everything recommended via Adobe forum to try and fix this problem though it still persists. It crashes randomly and I am usually unable to use Photoshop for more than 20 minutes. Below is the error message that appeared when Photoshop crashed,

They were working correctly yesterday, and now the presence of any extension, including 'Adobe Exchange,' will cause the entire application to hang once they are selected from their panel. This seems to be the case for any/all extensions (at least the ones I use). Once I remove them all, the stock tools on the right-hand panel work correctly. However, adding back any of them means that using the panel will crash the application - whether it is selecting an extension or using a built-in feature like "Adjustments" or "3D".
Curiously, when an extension is added to the panel (assuming I don't click on it and crash PS) and I close the application like normal, Photoshop also hangs on exit, forcing me to 'force quit' it. I am not sure how that is related, but there seems to be some kind of correlation.

I dont know if this is just me but whenever i try to create and work with a 3D object in Photoshop, this black square seems to pop up for no apparent reason and its really bugging me [mainly because it sometimes blocks my view of the perspective].
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using Civil 3D 2013. I work in an office where we have a few different flavors of Autocad (LT, MEP, regular vanilla AutoCAD etc...) and versions (2010 LT, 2011, 2012, 2013).
For the most part there isn't much inter-office drawing coordinate that has to happen, but there is the occasional project where multiple disciplines (Structural, Mechanical and Civil Site) have to share drawings.
The specific problem I am having is when I share my 2013 Civil 3D drawing with a user using 2011 MEP. He gets the typical rectangle for the proxy objects (in my case, my pipe networks for sanitary and storm drain). We've tried downloading and installing various object enablers, but there doesn't seem to be one for a 2013 to 2011 scenario. So I setup my parts to be on layers that he can just turn off. HOWEVER... the actual pipe network (not the structures, parts, labels etc... the network itself) ends up on layer 0. For this specific project, I do the old (ssget "x" '((8 . "0")) search to select all objects on layer 0, add those objects to a selection set (pselect), then in my modify objects dialog I filter for pipe networks, then change the layer to something other then 0.
While this is a workaround that works for me, what I really want to know is if there is a way that I can change the default layer that the network (again, not pipes, structures or text, the actual network) so I don't have to use the workaround. Any thoughts?
P.S. It's killing me that I had to create a new Autodesk login and now all my AutoCAD "street cred" is lost

View 3 Replies View RelatedI put text on an image and for no apparent reason, GIMP condenses it (or at least displays it as if it's condensed) no matter what font I use. I can change everything else about the font, including kerning, but the letters stay narrow. This happens even with fonts that don't have a condensed variant.Plus, GIMP gets really slow. Normally it works at a tolerable speed but when it does the condensing letters thing it acts like I have a bunch of applications running, regardless of whether I have anything else open.
This is the second time GIMP has done this. The first time was a few months ago. I think it cleared up after a few days without any action on my part. But it is extremely irritating.
I took screenshots of various fonts. I didn't insert any line breaks. GIMP is wrapping text as if the fonts are the normal width, so I'm guessing it is mostly a display issue.
I have the testversion and i do some tests with Digital noise removal and a 10 megapixel Image and 0.3 megapixel image.
On my system, it happen that Paint shop wait around 4 sec and do nothing.then it begin to calculate and progress requester is show for around 1.5 sec
Can see when switch in task manager the CPU load refresh to high(4* /sec seem value update).when i choose a setting or i change a value it take always 4 sec until CPU load increase from idle % to full load.
I have also written a Bug report and suggest that Paint shop begin calc as soon as possible, and stop if a value is change and calc again soon as possible with new value.So all can work lots faster.currently i get no response.
The Smart Photo Fix, too have a delay before calc.It is 1 sec.I test with a 320*250 Pixel image (0.3 megapixel), here the additional delays are too in.
In the feature list X4 stand that it can use GFX Card to be faster.I have a gforce 6600 with older pixelshader.So i guess X4 use no GFX card.The render speed of all effects i think good, but the wait time make the usage of this program not fun. I think the X4 Version is great, very good denoise sharp and enhance photo functions.
In one of the columns, for different parts I have value *Varies* displayed instead of iproperty value that other parts display. Why?
View 3 Replies View Relatedpolylines in my current drawing have started to come out with a very fat line width. It doesnt matter what layer its on, even though previously they were drawn 'properly' i.e the thin line width that shows when you have show/hide lineweight on 'hide'. This doesnt happen on any other drawing tool (arc, circle, polygon etc). The lineweights in layer control are all 'default'. I can't explain this as it seems to have just happened. Is it a known bug or something?

View 20 Replies View RelatedFor some reason I am having problems exporting .CDR's to .JPG - I am using a custom page layout, 12x10" in landscape and have basically created 4 images with a 1" border around them by means of setting the page background to a plain colour and importing a .JPG to the desired size. This worked fine for two of my images, but, for some reason the other 2 images will not save as a 12 x 10 sized image, which means the 'border' is cropped on the two sides.
It's hair pulling out time for me as I have done the same process for two of the prints, but the other two will not stop cropping themselves in the export process.
I just converted a PDF file from a DWF file (from AutoCAD 2012). I also needed to print the PDF; unfortunatley, the PDF is taking forever to print.
This is what I did.
-I went under Plot-Model
-Under the Printer/plotter, I clicked DWG to PDF.pc3 and click on Properties
-Click under the Device and Document Settings tab
-Click on Custom Properties
-Click on Custom Properties buttom
-Under the DWG to PDF PRoperties table, I click on Capture all under Font Handling
-I uncheck Include Layer information under Additonal Output Setting
-I click ok
When I begin to plot under Batch Plot, I also went and click on Publish Options, and on that table under Layer information, I click on Don't include.
For some reason, it's printing very slow. I don't know what other option I have in order the print faster.

I have an AutoLISP program that hangs up for no apparent reason. I can run the program with an Alert in the loop. The program is a sheet generator, creating a border (insert with attributes), dimensions and MultiLeaders in Model Space, then a new Layout Tab is generated and the new elements are CHSPACEd into the new layout. An Alert temporarily halts the program once the task of a new Layout is created. In this form, the program works as designed. However, if I comment out the Alert, the program hangs up as if in an infinite loop. Also, hitting Escape does not cancel the AutoLISP, I must use Task Manager to end AutoCAD instead. My computer was recently upgraded to Win7 64-bit. I'm running 64-bit versions of software. (AutoCAD MAP 2011).

I have three PC's that have a problem saving files to a Gigabit NAS. All three started having this problem this morning. It has been working like a champ for 3 months. Open a picture in PS and try saving the pic to another format on the network drive.
PC 1 I get " Could not save as pathfilename because of a a program error. PC2 I get " Could not save as pathfilename because of a a disk error. PC 3 I get " Could not save as pathfilename because the file could not be found. Now I created a new Volume on the NAS and I can now save to that new Volume.
I can read from existing files on the NAS and save in every other CS3 app. Funky. I can save the PS file locally and on other PC shared network folders. I did the 3 finger salute for prefs and did the font CMAP Base thing that was suggested. I changed the memory allocation. Removed mapping and remapped. Virus and spyware free Any ideas?
On my Windows PC, I am having a strange issue when trying to edit a photo ( between 35 and 45 megs) with photoshop over the network.

It has shut down photoshop, and once it even rebooted my computer.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe recently installed the CS3 suite onto our school workstations. The problem we are having is that students are getting slowdowns in Photoshop in terms of waiting for menu drop downs and general unresponsive behavior. The applications are installed locally on the computers but the application data folders for the students are redirected to the main file server. As more students use Photoshop (>16) the slowdowns become more noticeable. Sniffing the network packets we are seeing a large amount of small files being opened and closed back to the application data folder on the server. I guess my question is, is there any way to force photoshop to use a local application data folder for all users? The network & file server they are writing to is quick but I suspect not quick enough for all of these small files.

View 2 Replies View RelatedOur home network is a Vista PC with an Epson 2880 printer attached to the Vista PC. My wife's XP PC connects through our simple network and prints on the Epson printed by going through my computer. Simple set up, no problems. We both use CS4, set so CS4 manages color, correct Epson paper profile, printer color management off, all the correct settings. Both our monitors are color corrected with Spyder3.When she prints from her computer every picture has a magenta cast. Even more strange is when I copy the same picture onto my PC and open it in my copy of CS4 the picture looks normal but CS4 will not print it. CS4 says I do not have a printer attached. I can open any other picture in the same CS4 session and print with no problems. Every time I try to print a picture that she printed CS4 says there is no printer. This occurs even when I have copied the picture onto my computer and opened it on my computer. I have tried renaming the picture and even changing the format to TIFF or JPEG but CS4 still refuses to print it.I can open a new blank document and use the move tool to move the picture onto the blank document, At this point I can print from CS4 normally AND the picture will not have any color cast?

This week when I saved files at home using file compatiblity (since co-workers in my office are on CS 5.1) and FTPed them from home to the work network I ran into all sorts of issues.
5.1 users reported getting all sorts of errors including...The document contains unknown data which will be discarded to keep layers editable... and another one about missing "color books"
I read about cross version problems with shapes with the new CS6 vector strokes applied. Sure enough, when I sent CS 5.1 co-workers small test files by email they could open all of them but the one with the shape with CS6 vector stroke. So I went back to the larger PSDs and removed the strokes from any shapes, but the office still could not open the files.
I too, even though on the same CS6 product get an error "There was a problem reading the layer data. Read the composite data instead?" If I click to do so I get another error "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop" which is simply not true wince both are CS6

View 1 Replies View RelatedIt has been reported and reproduced by Support, an issue whereby Photoshop .PSD files disappear when they’re saved to a network file share. Upon initial investigations Support have observed the following behaviour when saving a Photoshop file.
The document is initially saved as a new file on the file share.The original .PSD file is deleted on the file share.The newly created file is renamed to the same name as the original file.
An issue often arises when steps 1 and 2 complete however step 3 fails. When a file is reported by users as having disappeared, the new file created in step 1 can be renamed from .00_ to the original *.PSD file name on the server as the *.00_ files are normally hidden by the desktop operating system. This allows people to see and open the file from both PC’s and MAC’s using AFP and SMB protocols.
A related issue often reported by users is that they receive an error message “Could not save as” when trying to save a .PSD file. Troubleshooting the issue confirms that the user is able to save the file if they perform a “Save As” operation in Photoshop.
From the reported problems and observations there is clearly an issue with how Photoshop performs a file save operation further exacerbated by the fact the process doesn’t fail safely.
