Photoshop :: Glass Filter Acting Wonky
Jul 31, 2004
I have a layer with a shape on it and the rest of the layer is empty (transparent).
I applied the "glass" filter to the layer and got a cool effect where the glass rippling is translucent.
When I tried to reproduse the effect, the filter uses the background color (selected in the tool bar) to fill in the spots where in the previous version it became translucent.
The filter still works properly on a shape that is merged on a layer with no transparency (ie the layer is filled).
I don't know what I could have changed but obviously something changed.

all of the colors in Photoshop decided to go more than a little "off". Every image I edit in Photoshop, and every image I copy into Photoshop from an outside source, loses a somewhat noticeable degree of color quality. What's more, all of the palette colors for my Tools have gone off, too- blue, for example, is less saturated and slightly more violet than it should be. Here's a couple examples to show you what I mean:
who seems to have inherited a sickly yellow sheen during her ten second trip to Photoshop Land.
Random bollocks I pulled off the internet, notice the shift in color quality.
Photoshop doesn't save the new colors, and everything it prints and everything it saves, when viewed with other image software, looks identical to when it went in. The image only goes funny when it's being displayed in Photoshop, but it's still annoying since it's giving me an inaccurate idea of what the picture will look like when finished. I'm using Photoshop CS2, all my drivers are up to date, Windows XP, no new hardware changes, etc etc if anyone wants more specs I can post them, but like I said Photoshop has been running fine since the dinosaurs roamed the Earth and only now decided to bugn out on me. If anyone knows what might be causing this, or what could be done to fix it (besides "buy CS3"),

After saving my business card design as a .pdf, when I open it in acrobat it look wonky. All the lines are squiggly, when I zoom in it changes, sometimes it looks like it should other times it looks worse
Is this like in photoshop when you zoom in, sometimes it looks stairstepped and other times it looks like it should? I'm sending these to print and I want to make sure everything is good.

Somehow my default in ACR changed without me noticing from sRGB to proPhotoRGB and now the images from 2 of my sessions have really wonly colors when saved on my PC... I did some reasearch and I guess I was supposed to convert back to sRGB.
if there is a fix for this that does not involve re-editing a number of images? I am really hoping there is a way to rescue these files!

Whenever I try to insert a block with attributes, the text comes in backwards/upside down... I've tried attedit, battman, mirror, properties, attsync, regen and torient. None of them work.
I've inserted blocks into drawings in the past with no problems, using the same template and workspace..

Any way to put a detailed patten into my glass window.
I have created glass with the slate material editor, used specular 100, glossiness 80 in the Blinn dropdown. Ued mental ray. Looks good, very glassy. Now I want to put a pattern on the glass, like a silouette, only that it is also translucent, part of the glass, as though it was an "etched glass" pattern on the glass. Do i make the pattern into some kind of "mask"? and lay it over existing glass?

Alien's Eye Candy is messing with me. When clicking on any effect, the sub window appears with the effect applied, but all the adjustment sliders read "0". If I adjust any of the sliders, the effect goes away, and I have to exit back to PS. Code:

press i or select the eye dropper tool, the colour you pick becomes the foreground colour. You can also press alt to select the colour for the background. However somehow this action has been reversed and now i have to press alt to select the foreground colour.
Really annoying as it slows down my workflow when painting. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this, there doesn't seem to be anything in the prefs dealing with this. Also reinstalled ps a week ago which fixed it, but has now happened again!

CS5:
All the tools on my toolbar are working/acting as the eraser tool, ie. attempting to crop erases, using the type tool erases. I've reset the tools and tool presets but the issue still stands. I am not in quick mask, the issue starts immediately when I open Photoshop.

I was in the middle of creating something when the text tool stopped working. I will type something and it won't show up but in the layer tool box the name of the layer will change to what I typed. I've tried playing with everything, it doesn't have anything to do with the formatting of the text (font size, spacing, color etc) and it isn't hidden behind any layers or anything.
Closing/restarting doesn't work either and it does this on every new/old image I try to open/create. I haven't changed any settings or anything and I can't figure out why it randomly stopped working.

Using my MAC version 10.5.8, and when searching for images in Bridge, whether it is among 3 external hard drives or just one, the search has many long delays, somtimes I think it is my mouse, then I see the images taking a long time to scroll and long time for thumbnails to appear. My mouse seems to jump around, but I think it is a delay. Do I need to purge cache?

CS6 keeps crashing and doing crazy things on me while working on my 2D/3D composite digital room setting. It seems to me like what's causing most of the crashing is the materials. Here's the problems:
- Crashes constantly while simply trying to select a material from the 3D panel
- Sometimes places meshes in a totally different spot in the scene and dissallows me to move them elsewhere
- Meshes are gone when opening the file, and I can't get them to reappear
I'm trying to stay composed at this point. My artwork would look great if, well, 3D in CS6 would simply WORK. But I'm remaining calm, and consulting you all..
I'm modeling, texturing, and UV mapping the 3D room objects (such as tables, chairs, hutches, etc.) in Maya 7, exporting as .obj files and placing into PS, and merging them with the scene layer in order for everything to have consistent lighting.I've also tried taking the 3D settings to Basic and the shadow quality to low, in case the crashes are due to cpu performance. I've also went and got the latest update for PS CS6
Here's some system specs:
Win7 Home Premim, 64 bit
2.8ghz Intel Core i7
8gb ram ddr3
NVidia GeForce 310 512 mb

We've got a couple drawings where circles in the model tab are hiding objects behind them like a wipeout will, but only when printing or print previewing.
We're using AutoCAD 2010 and the viewport shad plot setting is set to hidden.

I'm working on a big document (we use cdr for producing brochures). I know that when I save it takes around 30s, but as soon as I click the save icon it greys out as if it's saved the document instantaneously (as do the save, save as and save as template menu commands).
Unless I wait the 30s or so, when I try to do something the program either doesn't respond or crashes. If I wait, it's ok - trouble is I don't know exactly how long to wait as there is no on-screen indication (and the icon is telling me it's all done, which it isn't).

I have made a few blocks that contain a few attributes. I have populated the Tag, Prompt, and Value for each block. When I insert the block the value seems to take on a life of its own and populate with text different than what I have entered.

Whenever I use the move command on a line or series of lines that are touching other lines, the lines that aren't part of my selection move with that one line. cad-movecommand.jpg Here's a series of screenshots showing what I mean. I can't move just that line without moving the other lines around it.

I'm using AI CS6, opened it up today and all the text boxes are behaving like paths. I can only resize them using the direct select tool. I don't know what happened, I've checked type preferences, nothing there seems to be odd.
I would attach a screenshot, but the "Insert Image" button brings up a white box that tells me the "Operation timed out." Not my day for software.
Basically, once I create a text box, I lose the ability to resize it unless I manipulate one corner at a time with the direct selection tool.

The Eye Dropper tool is acting funky. It was preventing me from picking up the color of my template when in outline mode - instead selecting no fill and no stroke. I finally got it to work by unchecking "Appearance" in the tool options. I didn't actually change any settings inside appearance (everything inside is still checked). That did allow me to select the templates color, but now it is also selecting my "path color". If my layer's color is set to Cyan for example, eye dropper actually selects cyan if i click on the path.
Is there a way to allow template color selection but avoid path color selection?
EDIT: I just discovered that these settings don't even pick up the template color correctly. They choose the color of the auto-dim/opacity that occurs when setting a template.

With the attached raw file, and the below settings already in place, why is it that when I move the Highlights slider to the right, the image darkens, and to the left, it lightens? Something rather odd is happening in the lower half of the histogram. The original file has very low contrast. I haven't seen this behavior with other files.I'm Using LR 5.3 in Windows.

I have a simple multi value list variable, but when I try to get the data from the list it loops through the first text in the list return each letter in the word. Example: If the first text in the multivalue list variable is "Hello" when looping through the list I get "H' then "e" then "l" and it never goes to the second item in the list.

I tried to use the lens flare filter in Photoshop CS6.While the lighting effect is interesting, it introduces ugly artifacts like blue or orange blobs (which are supposed to be the reflection of the diaphragm, but do not look anywhere close to that, but instead are just cheesy looking blobs of color).
In the "movie prime" setting blue lines are added which have nothing to do with lens flar.On top of it, the preview is about the size of a stamp. Any way to use the filter without getting these artifacts, or is it - what I assume - just a useless toy filter, that has probably been dragged on for years and years because it's always been there? What do you use to create a lens flare effect? Are you just building it from scratch with brush work?
