I was working on a project and all of a sudden everything with in PS got notably slow and choppy. This first happened while using the selection tool (polygonal lasso), which was lagging behind and making late clicks. I finished my selection and noticed the cursor in general was slow choppy still. I saved my work, shutdown PS, then reboot my computer. I reopen my project, the cursor lag seemed to be gone but the brush tool was not working correctly. Instead of making smooth burst of color with one click (gradient like), it now looks like 256 4 bit (old nintendo style) bursts. Or you could say it looks like multiple rings getting smaller and darker, like counting the rings of a tree trunk.
This happens instantly after opening a file of any type and size. I work with CMYK and 300dpi and while working on a page, this just happened out of nowhere.
I have an ASUS G74SX, i7 CPU, GeForce 560M w/2 gig RAM, 8 gig of SDRAM, 3 each SSD 300gigs (this is basically a 6 month old gaming laptop and has been working fine with PS until now). I have my PS scratch disk set to my F drive for all art and there is nothing more than 2 gigs of space being used right now. My RAM used in PS prefs was maxed at 5205k as suggested by the program.
PS CS6 is fully up to date as well as all drivers for my GPU and the rest of my laptop.
Out of the blue, my zoom on my middle wheel slowed down. So, now I have to spin my wheel at least 20 more times when I zoom in. The problem only occurs in Civil 3D not any other programs. How to fix my zoom?
My PS6 has slowed to a snails pace! I believe it happened after a update download of Adobe Flash Player last week. I've reinstalled photoshop but no change. program is useless this slow.adobe Indesign & Illustrator are working fine.
I would like to be able to save my session in Photoshop much like I can with the workspace.
With a session manager, I will be able to save and load all the open canvases in one go.
So, for instance, if I wanted to continue my work next time I open Photoshop, I will be able to load the previous session -- this will open all the canvas windows and their exact placement in the main Photoshop window.
How can I accomplish this? Are the scripts advanced enough to implement new menu's and trigger such actions (maybe I am being too hopeful, here)?
With functionality, an intuitive design, and ease of use being some of the top priorities in applications these days, I am hopeful that Adobe can at least implement this next time around.
Perhaps I am just missing the option? Is such a feature available?
I've seen (some times ago) a presentation where the editor was initially working in Camera Raw with a new (original) foto. During the modifications in Photoshop he went back to Camera Raw, edited some parameter settings, went back to Photoshop. He made this switching between Photoshop and Camera Raw a few times.
I loaded the photos into Iview Media Pro and forgot to save them as well as not saving to a CD or External hard drive. I cannot retrieve the photo on the cards. Is there any way to improve the quality of thumbnails in Iview to be able to be usable?
I thought that I had saved some photos on my hard drive. I the did load the photos into Iview Media Pro so I do have the thumbnails. Is there anyway to improve the file to a usable size?
I just downloaded the trial version CS6. I imported into Photoshop, Pro Res 422 HQ clips and it plays back very choppy. When exported it remains choppy.
In CS6, When editing Pro Res 422, Video with single layer plays back fine but with 3 layers playback and export are very choppy. I tried merging layers but the video doesn't playback at all. Is there any other settings I could try?
CS6 memory usage is 100%, sound is turned of in TL. System MacPro -Quad Core Intel Xeon-Processor Speed 3 GHz, Memory 8GB.
i just installed CS6 on a mid2009 17" MacbookPro and am experiencing an annoying issue with scrolling to zoom. I use a magic mouse, and do not have this problem in CS4. Whenever I scroll the mouse "wheel" to zoom in, it zooms in at like 20% or so levels everytime, instead of smoothly as it did in CS4.
I checked preferences, and I have animated zoom enabled. I have a NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB video card. Also, here are other details:
Brand new MacBook Pro - Non-Retina - OSX 10.8.2 / 2.6GHz Intel Core i7 / 8GB RAM / 750GB HD (currently 522GB free space) / CS6 Extended Version 13.0.1. x64
I just got a new MacBook Pro this past week and immediately discovered that whenever I would try to move around on a zoomed-in image (using two-finger scrolling on my trackpad, as I've done for years), it would be very choppy/jagged/sort of jumping pixels. I've changed everything in Photoshop--Preferences--Performance multiple times (including the graphics processor settings, memory usage, history & cache), as well as all of my scrolling and trackpad settings, and have also tried with and without automatic graphics switching.
I have this issue in both CS6 (downloaded directly from adobe.com last night, extra updates done immediately), and CS5. I tried CS4 and there was no issue...but I didn't get a brand new computer to use an old version of Photoshop. Went into the Apple store today to see if they've seen this issue before, but the person I spoke to had not (and knew nothing about Photoshop...not that I expected him to).
I have a few friends who have this same problem - some just deal with it (or don't use Photoshop enough for it to be a bother), some have gotten their computers replaced (but with no actual answers). Apple wasn't convinced that this was a hardware issue in my case, but did offer to replace the computer (however it will take a couple weeks, as it's a custom order). I've spent countless hours searching these Adobe forums (and the rest of the internet) for insight.[URL]...
This happens on ALL images, regardless of file type and size (the image shown in this video is just a jpg with no extra layers - working on RAW files with multiple layers produces the same result, no worse). And once again, I have changed everything in the Performance Preferences in PS (including the graphics processor settings, memory usage, history & cache), as well as all of my scrolling and trackpad settings, and have also tried with and without automatic graphics switching in my energy saver preferences...all multiple times, all with closing/reopening PS, all with restarting my computer afterwards. Have I missed something, or do you guys think it is more than likely a hardware (RAM, graphics card, etc) problemHere is my (current) system info - again, I've changed the PS performance preferences multiple times -
Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.0.1 (13.0.1 20120808.r.519 2012/08/08:21:00:00) x64 Operating System: Mac OS 10.8.2 System architecture: Intel CPU Family:6, Model:58, Stepping:9 with MMX, SSE Integer, SSE FP, SSE2, SSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, HyperThreading
I've not made any changes to my system only rebooted the computer however, photoshop CS2 seems really slow and sluggish for no reason where it never has been previously.
Using Inventor 2013. As you know it's impossible to chang iproperties values of the library parts in inventor session (for instance in asm file). The error message comes "readonly".
But when you open iproperties of the file in windows file explorer then it's possible to change iproperties values while library parts open in inventor session in asm.
Normally I copy the file location path of the library part and open this path in the windows file explorer and find the part and right-click on file and change iproperties values which I want to change stock number, part description etc...
Is it possible to create VBA code or API which can open iproperties box of the selectet part outside of the inventor session in windows file explorer?
Randomly, a few times a week, I get an error in AutoCAD LT 2012 when trying to save a dwg file. It says
"Unable to save to drawing {filename} as it is being accessed by another session. Drawing saved to {filename}.tmp." The file then turns into Read Only and says
"Drawing file is write protected."
We have to do a Save As to a different filename in order to regain functionality.
I am working on an application that uses map to query data, then saves the data to a file, and repeat. It works flawlessly when I use a commandmethod with commandflags.session, But, when I try to run the same code from a form button, I get "drawing is busy". The command from the form button ignores the commandmethod and the commandflags. I am guessing that "sendstringtoexecute" would work, but I would prefer to not do it that way.
What am I missing? Is there another way to lock the session?
Every time I open a new drawing a new Inventor session starts up and the drawing is opened in there. It's ok if I go through file-open etc in a current Inventor session but I don't want to open drawings like that all the time. If I open 5 drawings at once they start up in 5 seperate Inventor sessions! I can't seem to find an option to change this, is it an inventor problem or windows?
I am running AutoCAD 2006 LT and AutoCAD 2010 on one computer and have the SDI set correctly. When I open multiple files from Windows Explorer, it opens multiple AutoCAD sessions. How to avoid this from happening?
Suddenly the pallete colors disappeared from my development session. I re-started all my computer and LR, but it doesn't appear in my screen. Is it necessary I reinstall LR?
The audio sounds choppy and I cannot figure out why Im getting it. I'm experimenting with Corel VS to learn how to use it. IF I use audio files ripped from a CD I get choppy audio after the project is rendered to a wmv hd 1080p file. It sounds fine during the preview playback in the project though.
Music that I have downloaded from the web does not do this. I assume I am doing something wrong when extracting audio from disks? I am just using Windows Media Player to RIP the CD's with. Should I use something else?
I just started using the new x4 version of VS and I noticed the playback on the preview window is very choppy. I have Pinnacle Studio HD, Sony Vegas Pro & of course Premiere CS5 installed to compare between them all, and don't have that problem, even with effects or anything added. Is there an option somewhere I'm missing? I've tried different video types and it doesn't seem to matter. The main one I'm trying is a 1280x720 AVI file I recorded.
Checked and unchecked the "Hardware Acceleration" ticks, no difference either way. Checked DirectX....up to date. Checked graphics drivers...up to date.
I just purchased Pro X4 online and the audio and video is choppy when I try to edit the video. I thought it was just my computer, but when I burned a DVD yesterday, it also came out incredibly choppy.
I'm using the card dance effect to bring some images together to form another image. When they fly in they look a bit choppy. I've attached an image of the settings. I cant see any setting that would make smoother.
I notice red cursor jumping back and forth as I play to edit in open project - did not do this before.What can I do?
i recently dragged the Premiere pro cc icon to my apps folder - could this have introduced a time /rendering delay?I think the sound has also become lower!
When running VS 2010 express in debug mode, for either AutoCAD 2010 or 2012, 64 bit, AutoCAD gets slower and slower loading with each subsequent debug session until it becomes intolerable. A system restart is necessary. Is this normal? I see this on a fast machine with tons of ram. During the waits there are patches of white screen in the various AutoCAD interface components. The performance hit is exponential with each session. The first debug is normal, The second is slightly slower. The third is noticeably slower and so on.
I have a file where I can't save, because it says its being accessed by another session. The problem is no one has it open. I did a save as and tried changing the name of the original file or move the file with no luck. I need to keep the file name for purpose of company file structure.
How to set the drawing file path so it shows up at the top of my screen when I am in an autocad session? Currently all I see is "Autocad Civil 3D".......
