We get about 50000 photos in a short period of time, about a month, that we need to correct, label, convert to CMYK and rename very quickly. We've gotten good and fast at all of these, but rotation still gives us a lot of trouble.
We have to use Explorer to do a manual sort on the photos before we do anything else (using the expedient of an LCD monitor rotated through 90 degrees). We seem to run into trouble later, when using Bridge to manage the rest of the work, because the thumbnails in Bridge don't always update to reflect the file's actual state (rotated or not); the old File Browser did have the 'rotation pending' flag, and supposedly did understand the orientation setting saved by the camera, but not always. One way to deal with this is to rotate the files before Bridge encounters them, but this has involved a huge time hit.
So this part of the potential solution involves asking you all for advice regarding dedicating a machine to doing this and nothing else - I need for it to be lightning fast, like 2-3 sec. max per rotation,
Is it possible with X5 to rotate a video arbitrary number like 8%? I know the video can be rotated 90% but unsure about just a minor rotation. If not possible in x5 maybe in x6?
how to rotate an extrusion a specific number of degrees. I can easily do it with Isometric views and the preprogrammed Off-Axis views. However, I just chose a random rotation.
In the example below, I made some stairs. Getting them to go in the opposite direction is easy - I just mirror the profile. However, I can't figure out how to properly rotate the stairs 90 degrees.
How to calculate these? I'm sure there's a way, but my brain can't get over it. I'm used to working in 3D modelling software where you can rotate based off a relative plane, not the fixed plane that Illustrator uses.
I have about 2000 fonts installed on my iMac, however only about half (maybe even less) are showing up in Photoshop. Is there some kind of max that Photoshop can handle?
I installed a large number of fonts on my computer (27720). Mostly all of my programs that use fonts Word, FIreworks, Dreamweaver, etc.. work just fine. But Photoshop chokes on them when loading and its performance goes to nothing causing it to freeze/take very long times to do anything (start up even).
I'm assuming its trying to do some big operation with them at start up. Does anyone know of anything that might might fix photoshop (CS) into skipping or avoiding what ever it is it does with fonts that makes it so slow when given a large amount?
Obviously the apparent solution would be to remove the fonts and I would if it were all the programs acting up, but it's just photoshop and im hoping there is some easy option fix :/.
Is there a way to re-size heaps of photos at once? Instead of having to go into the menu and changing the size, photo by photo? For example: If I download pics from my camera how do I change them all. Also, does anyone know how to make a folder name and it automatically updates all your .jpg file names for you? For example, a folder could be Jack's 21st and all pics become jack's21st001.jp jack's21st002.jpg etc.
I'm using PS Elements 11, I have a large # of pictures to resize (over 500). Is there any way to resize a large # at one time? Doing one at a time takes up a lot of time, I was thinking if I can do 20-50 at I time.
Any way, through acad.lsp or similar, to check "Yes" and "Always perform my current choice" for all users in the dialog below? I just don't know if this is a system variable or something else that is easy to set.
I have a student that has chosen to draw a baseball stadium as a project. He has inserted thousands of seats and has thousands more to insert but has already starting to experience some lag when viewing in 3D. Is there a way to handle all these seats so that it is less memory intensive? Does it work to group the elements?
I have a part that requires a large number of fillets. What would be the best approach, so it doesnt take 5 hours to update the model everytime i update something on the model?
If I accidently turned it off and can not find it in the Hiddeen Messages Settings dialog, is there a variable or registry key or other trick to turn it on again?
Would be interested in a variable for the "missing shx files" dialog as well.
I have an STL (mesh file) file that I converted into DXF file, and then imported into Inventor.
The file contains a surface (meshed) I would like to create a thickness for each face. Since, the number of faces is very large, I cannot do it manually, is there an option/ trick to select them all, or perhaps a different way to create a thickness to the meshed surface.
i m new in auto cad 2010 i today i face new problem i dont this is what? the message is that " the drawing contains a large number of annotation scales do u want to reset the scale list? "
I am trying to reduce the file size on a large number of jpeg photo's for unsertion into Windows Movie Maker. How do I compress the slides in a batch job? Can I do it in Photoshop Elements?
I do a lot of township layouts and it is cumbersome to calculate each properties size and type in into an excel sheet. Is there a faster way to calculate all the stands's sizes into database?
I am looking to create a collage made from 100 photos (all taken high res) to be printed large, approx 120cm x 50cm. To be able to print this size I need to keep the high resolution and hence looking for a large file output.
How to “synchronize” the ‘layout number” with “sheet number”?
As in most cases, the arrangements of “lay outs” reflects the way they are regularly printed, then how could we renumbering the sheets such that the first lay out takes number 1, the second lay out takes number 2,…and so forth.
I'm using Photoshop Elements 2.0 I also have Photoshop 6.0
I'm trying to learn how to rotate a .jpeg photo without it losing proportion. I have a photo of a Santa that I carved and took the photo with the camera turned 90. I'd like to rotate the photo so I can use it as an Avatar on a forum I'm in. However, when I rotate the photo 90 the image becomes narrower and longer. I'd like to retain the original proportion but don't know how to do this.
Photoshop (I use CS1) is taking photos that have been saved vertically and opening them horizontally. If I rotate the photo back to vertical and save it again and then try to re-open it, it's horizontal again. Opening these same files with other image viewers and browsers shows that they are clearly vertical, yet PS continues to open them horizontally. I've been using Photoshop for years and never had this problem until the past couple of days, so I'm totally baffled. It's not like I just installed it. It's been working fine and never had this problem before yesterday. It also isn't doing it on older photos that I've saved, it's only new photos that I've saved in the past couple of days, so obviously it's doing something when I'm saving them that's causing it to rotate them automatically when re-opened.
When I try to open these exact same photos on my other comuter that has an older version of PS (7.0) this problem doesn't occur -- the photos are vertical, just as they should be.
I'm trying to flip and rotate a selection in Photoshop but it doesn't seem to be working. Here's what I'm doing:
1) Select what I want to flip/rotate.
2) Go to Select -> Transform Selection
3) Go to Edit -> Transform Path -> Flip Horizontal/Vertical or one of the rotate options.
4) Choose another tool so that it can ask me if I want to apply the transformation.
5) Say yes.
But at this point nothing happens to my selection. When rotating, I notice that the selection box itself gets transformed, but not the contents selected. How do I actually transform the contents?
I'd like to rotate an image or selection just a bit to have a better ability to draw on it in Photoshop. However if I rotate it with the handles or rotate 90 degrees or whatever it changes the image and I'd like it to return in normal position after I'm finished drawing. I do not want the image to be rotated in the end, I only want to be able to draw at specific places and therefore it needs to be rotated.
how could I rotate a layer of many in a file to align it with the other layers ?To be clear, I am an astrophotographer & what I am doing is using the "Difference" mode to align layers. But the pictures are slightly rotated & I want to be able to rotate them very little to align the stars at the corners & those that are radially outwards from the center.
CS6 - Mac OS X 10.7.5. With Crop tool selected and placing cursor outside of crop area to get rotation handles, image is not rotated but crops in pro. How can I get back the rotation facility?
As the title says, lately my photoshop has been displaying rotated images with jagged/distorted edges. Now, I have not had this problem previously in the 8years I have been using photoshop, I am sure there is a simple fix to this, which I haven't really tried to fix. Any help would be apprecaited. I'm wondering if it is my monitor..?
