I have a vector shape (which is simply four rounded rectangles) that I have converted to a 3D object,now you can see I've angled the flat plane so it's a little oblique, but what I want to do now is map the 'face' of the extruded shape so instead of lying on a flat plane, the plane itself is warped like a sphere.
Imagine taking these 'chicklets' and pressing them onto a bowling ball instead of lying on a flat table.Is there any way to do that in CS6 or am I going to have to do this in another 3D application?
Is there a way I can edit the registry so that in Adobe Bridge, under edit, preferences, file type associations, the jpg extension is forced to use the 32-bit version of Photoshop? I can do it manually, but is there a registry key i can export to apply it to multiple computers?

When I'm using a card reader that does not require batteries, is it because they are Leica DNG files??? I have managed to drag and drop instead but would prefer to use "get photos from camera".
I just upgraded to the Creative Cloud on my PC, downloaded PS CS6 - Bridge and Camera Raw. I'm configuring and working with CR2 files, no problem, however, Bridge will not let me delete, rename or update the metadata of my jpgs.

View 1 Replies View RelatedFor some unknown reason...CS2 has started placing "Adobe Bridge Cache" file shortcuts on my desktop. When I click on one, I receive a Win XP error message that says the file .bc is unkown and can't be opened.
These shortcuts have never appeared before. Now the simple act of opening Bridge and looking at jpeg files seems to initiate it.
Questions: Why is PS doing this? Do I need to pay attention to it? If not, how do I stop PS from cluttering up my desktop.
I take pictures of a swim team and I keyword tag each image with the swimmers name. I would like to batch rename and save in a new folder the files so they have the original filename and then the keyword name.
I don't see that as an option in the metadata drop down or any of the other drop downs. Is there a way to do it? I have exported it and included the metadata information and from my PC I can see it in the lower picture data, but I am sharing with a Mac user and it is easiest if the name of the swimmer is in the filename. I have over 1100 pictures and renaming them manually would be too time consuming.
First Photo is viewed in Adobe Bridge (Print Screen Image).
Second Photo is viewed in Photoshop (Print Screen Image)
Third Photo is saved as JPEG in Photoshop (Print Screen Image) - Notice no strange black pixels
There's no consistency in crop but why am I seeing these strange black pixels and why do they disappear when saved as jpeg or same photo viewed in different viewing software?
Adobe Bridge and reading from three cd's worth of pics. As you can see from the attached screen shot, I'm getting strange posterization. Sometimes the thumbnail is posterized and opens correctly, sometimes the thumbnail is good, but opens up in ACR posterized, sometimes the thumbnail and image open correctly, and sometimes they're both posterized. I've cleared the cache several times. My verson of Bridge is up-to-date.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got gigs and gigs of image data on my HD, and I'm a bit nervous. I was keeping things in esoteric folders, buring CDs occasionally, and sometimes actually backing up. In recent months, I've decided to take my 'shopping seriously (in a business sense) and started to investigate workflow methods. Right now, I'm concentrating on capture and archiving. Some of the Bridge's new features are quite appealing, but still not all that I want.
What I want from my friends here is a discussion on particular approaches, and why they do/don't work for you.
Here's what I am putting together now... Until today, I would dump my camera files directly into a TEMP folder with a date-based name, something like 2005-17-05, that reflects the dump date, not the actual shoot date. I would then let these sit for quite a while before doing anything with them. Really, the problem was that I got too caught up in details when trying to devise a folder structure, so I didn't follow through and kept inventing new things to confuse me. I'm very good at that.
I've decided on a handful of broad categories that represent my usual work, and have 3 main folders: Stock, Working, Final. Stock is essentially the images straight from the camera, working is a copy of the file saved as .PSD and where I actually do the image work, and Final is a flat, full-res .PSD of the completed image, as well as output-specific formats like web or print.
Within those folders I have subfolders for various things. The philosophy is this; Stock is broken into general categories that reflect the image's intent (Nature/Trees, or Places/Buildings for example). I also have a Projects folder for directed or consigned collections. Working also has folders, but they are based on the intent of a collection of images that may have different subjects, but fall into a project scheme (New Mexico Hikes, Horses, etc) - more on this in a bit. And the Final folder is a duplicate structure of Working.
I'm OK with 'Stock' as-is, but I'm still waffling on the Working/Final folders. An alternate approach is to keep the same structure from Stock in Working and Final, then have a separate Projects folder for collections. The advantage here is that I can work piecemeal and decide on a collection from a gallery of finals. I can also go back and find the layered PSD used in a Final simply by looking in the same-named Working folder. The disadvantage is in the fact that if I decide early on (before the working file) to create a collection, I'd have to make another collections folder in Working folder, which now spreads out my images. Put another way, I'd have thematically similar works potentially in several locations which makes finding them later a real challenge.
I guess I could just make a list of the images I wanted to use and track them through that way...
In any case, I do not rename any files, except in the case of versions, until I get to the final collection (which will have a text file relating the names to the originals).
Now let's throw in DNG! Not all of my shots are in RAW format, and I've not read enough about the Adobe DNG converter to know if it will 'force' the format on JPGs (I would guess not). So, part of the new workflow would be to automate RAW conversion. The question here is whether to save the original RAW file elsewhere, or in the DNG file itself. That's up for debate, but I will probably keep the RAW data directly in the DNG file.
Finally, we come to Adobe Bridge, which can help sort all this out. Mostly...
I spent most of today devising and implementing a handful of keywords/sets, as well as descriptions and applying copyright via the interface. Good stuff. Since I've got a mixed bag of formats in Stock, I've ended up with a LOT of XMP files, and decided to keep the Cache distributed (read up on Bridge if you aren't familiar with this). Doing this helped me sort and shuffle my collections into the scheme I've laid out above. There is some collateral damage since I've not been consistent in my naming or storage locations, but it's a real head start.
Now I'm on to Archiving, and I see a little snag. I can potentially save all my stock files to a fistful of DVDs, then do the same with the working files and finals. Since I'm using single-use DVDs, I can't add files later to fill up. And since I'll be adding stuff randomly to Stock, I've got to decide on an archiving scheme that doesn't just totally waste time creating a new DVD every time I add a handful of images. There is too much info to squeeze it all onto one disc, so I have to break it up somehow (and yes, I've been considering removable HDs).
The other problem here is that Bridge doesn't appear to support cataloging removable media. I may be mistaken, but I've not found it. That means I'll have to maintain some log that tells me what images are on what disc. Sure, I can use another application, but this would be a killer feature for Bridge 2.0 (are you listening Mr. Brown?).
I've been retreiving picture files from CD's and saving them to my computer through Adobe Bridge in CS3. When I put the CD in the CD drive, I would get a dialog box asking "Open With" and listing all the different programs that are in the computer like Adobe CS3, Adobe Bridge, Windows Media Player, etc. I highlight "Adobe Bridge" then "OK", and then click on that drive in my folders list and the pics open up in Bridge. My problem is that I (stupidly?) checked the box at the bottom of the dialog box that says something like "Always open with this program". Now when I load in the CD, that dialog box doesn't come up and the pic files don't come up in Bridge, even after going to that drive in my folders menu and clicking it..

I recently purchased a new Canon T5i and have started using Lightroom. So far I am loving both.
I plan on importing into my Lightroom Catalogue all of my photos from my Mac's Pictures folder and from iPhoto and my iPhone and iPad.
For those photos already in my catalogue from new shoots, I have placed them in appropriately named photos, have religiously used tags and have renumbered the photos using this type of convention:
My Initials_Year_Event Description_Sequence
I am ending up with some very long file names. I am not a professional photographer so this is all for me but I want to be able to search for my photos from both within Lightroom AND from the Mac's finder. I am looking for input to create unique but descriptive names but not make the photo names very long.
Here is my thought process:
1. I am using my initials as I can then search in the Mac Finder and find all photos and movies regardless of extension (e.g. CR2, DNG, JPG, MOV). My initials are not on other files in my Mac.
2. I am using a descriptive name so I can search for the photos for example of "Dan's Wedding" and find those both in Finder and in Lightroom. The Dan's Wedding photos are in a Lighroom directory called "Dan's Wedding" and they are tagged with Wedding and Dan. This might be over kill but I think the actual file name is most useful to me when it describes the event.
3. The number is of course what makes each file unique.
SO.....some questions.
1. Is putting my initials a waste of time? I could search in Finder for "DNG, JPG, MOV" but I would get files besides those in Lightroom (assume all of the items in my Pictures folder will eventually be in Lightroom.
2. Do I really need a date in the file name given that a meta data search will find the photo's taken date? I am more likely to remember an event name like "Dan's Wedding" than the fact it happend in "2013 June".
3. If I use a date, should I put the year first for search purposes?
I have been having problems with Adobe Bridge and ACR and after talking with others, including NAPP Help Desk, it has been determined that I need to uninstall and reinstall both programs. I was told to uninstall through the Adobe Application Manager, however, I see NO option there to uninstall.

View 2 Replies View RelatedYou will need to have CS4 for some of these, and you need to make sure your Extension Manager is up to date. If you aren't familiar with EM, it's a way of managing scripts and other extensions without the copy/paste into folders. You can turn extensions on and off without uninstalling, all from one interface.
Coming soon will be the Configurator which allows similar functionality within Photoshop, but is aimed more at user-interface enhancements.
