Revit 2013. I Set up a color scheme for rooms. colors are fine but the colors go to middle of walls (interior and exterior) even tho walls are set to room bounding. Room and area calcs set to wall finish but in plan view and in sheet view the colors go to wall centers. Plotting the colors override/cover wall graphics. Created a quick "dummy" project using masonry walls and it worked fine.
Also, if you link a revit file with additional rooms how do you add those to color schedule? Cant jus add room in host file - says its not properly enclosed. putting room in the linked file doesn't seem to allow room to be read/scheduled/displayed by name/number-just shows the room X with a + sign in middle. Adding color to linked file gets nothing but I want it controled in host anyway.
I have a multi-story model with "Existing" and "New Construction" phases present on each level. The graphic overrides are functioning properly on the 1st Floor (existing is displayed in lighter line weight and half-tone) but for some reason the overrides are not applying to the 2nd Floor.
I created a color scheme based on the Department parameter. I've named them accordingly and assigned colors to my liking. I've created Department types for Circulation, Classroom, Core, Elevator, and so on. Now I want to change the value of Classroom to Student / Instructional. I can't seem to change the value with in the editing dialog for the Color Scheme. Also when I change on of the Departments to the new name it creates another color and value.
Three pdf's attached. I can't get the glass in the glass sidelight to display in the project plan view, and a threshold-like thing is shown in the project plan view that shouldn't be there. The frame (jambs, sidelight sill and head, and door frame head) and glass sidelight were assembled in the family editor using extrusions.
I've got an issue where changing the color in one area plan scheme (future/left) removes the scheme legend from a completely separate area plan (existing/right). Attached are the screen shots of what I'm describing. This only happens when we change any of the colors in the future/right-hand scheme. All we have to do to get the scheme back on the other area plan is to click on the blank box, edit and reassign the correct scheme (the only one on the list), but had we not caught this, we would have published these without the colors on the one plan, so that's problematic. I'm wondering why--perhaps a glitch or something?
Having a problem when uploading a file with multiple artboards where a few boards will drop elements from the page or will be cut-off on the bottom. The artboards are the correct size in the file and all elements display properly when saving. Resaving, and reuploading will fix some issues, but cause new ones - it's really random.
A week ago all was well in Premiere Pro CS6 world. One day I updated Windows, next day all but a few .mp4 video files opened in Premiere Pro, played fine as well, EXCEPT for the fact that the display now has green (sometimes multicolour, sometimes a solid green block) bars in the lower third of the screen. See screenshot below.
These same files open/display fine in After Effects, Photoshop and VLC- and Quicktime players. I'd read something fromyears ago about Windows Updates causing this, so removed one of therecent KB's to no avail. I did install AdobeMediaEncoderTrial_64-6.0.3-mul-AdobeUpdate and DynamicLinkMediaServerRetail-1.0.1-mul-AdobeUpdate and reverted to Quicktime 7.6 but nothing makes a difference.
In the end, I formatted C:, reinstalled Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, downloaded/installed about 260 updates and reinstalled CS6 (and then the aforementioned AME and DLMS updates and QT7.6) but it's STILL the same problem.
Also tried exporting (part of) one of these files, just to see if it wasn't just a display problem: the exported file with the same properties as the original also has the green bars.
I am having a problem with Photoshop CS5 Extended V 12.1.
The problem: When I open some files, some shades of BLUE colour is displayed as BLACK However the same file opens and displays correctly if I open it using Photoshop Elements V9.0.3.When I save the file as JPEG and re-open it, the problem returns.Opening the JPEG file in any other application, including PS Elements, does not cause the problem
Source of files The original files came from a Nikon camera, saved in RAW format. It is possible that the original files were corrupted in some way as the shots had an unusual blue cast - which was easily resolved by Photoshop when I originally opened the RAW files.problem is not universal as I've not been able to reproduce it with any other files (RAW or JPEG).
I have calibrated my monitor display settings sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (default)

I just installed CS4 on a lovely new Dell notebook with WUXGA display (1920x1200) and am having a problem that I have never seen before. When the brush tip is small (up to 35 px at 100%)Â I see the entire circle defining it, but as I move into larger and larger tip sizes the circle starts to disappear from the bottom right, becoming just a smaller and smaller circular fragment until it disappears entirely at around 300 px. If I select the center crosshair, this also disappears around 200px (when only a small circular crescent is left), and then reappears at around 400px (minus any trace of the circle). It is obviously some sort of display issue: if I change the image size the behavior is the same when the circle is the same size onscreen, so it is the display size and not the absolute pixel size which determines it. This happens whether I choose normal or full-size tip. Has anyone experienced this? It is not only annoying, it is positively serious, since at certain sizes I cannot even tell where or how large the brush is. Clear type on or off makes no difference. I have not noticed any odd display behavior with any other program.
Alright, so I'm running Windows 7 64-bit and Illustrator CS5.
Times New Roman Regular does not display correctly on my machine when using Illustrator CS5, but Bold, Italic, Italic Bold display just fine. Times New Roman does display correctly in every other program I use. InDesign, Word, etc. I've attached a screenshot to show what I mean.
When I open a text box and type all of the fonts are all basically the same. They donot display correctly. I uninstalled and re-installed photoshop elements 11 and they still do not work.
I attached the pic. You'll see the colors range from different shades of teal to black.
I would like to change it so it ranges from a yellow/green to black instead of the teal.
Is there a way to do this? I found the color range tool, but I can't get it to do anything. After reading the help file on the color range tool I'm not sure this is even the right tool.
I'm more used to Photoshop, their basically both the same things, except when I had Photoshop I had a grey color scheme. Like you know the background behind the image, the tools and all of that?
Is there any way I can change the color scheme to say dark grey? I'm a lot more used to it, and colors affect my performance a lot.
I am finding that when using Photoshop cs6 on a mac and when saving files as png or web files - the options panel displays as black and you are unable to see any of the options.
When I open JPEGS or RAW images in photoshop they have a dull, flat color to them. This is happening after recently buying a NEW PA271W wide-gamut display and calibrating it using Spectraview 2. It doesn't matter whether I have the Working Space in PS set to Adobe RGB or sRGB under color settings... The only way I can make my image look normal is to go under settings and ASSIGN PROFILE to Adobe RGB. It looks fine then. I could live with that, except the bigger problem is that I begin my editing process in RAW, where the colors are also looking flat. The best I can tell, there is no way to assign a profile at this stage...
I've been working in photoshop many years and I do know that RAW images have a 'flatter' appearance to being with, but this is something completely different. For example, when I slide photoshop onto my other monitor next to it (I have multiple monitors) - the color reverts to the normal color I want . And if I then slide photoshop back onto my new NEC monitor, the normal color actually stays intact for about two seconds, then reverts back to the dull color. So I am unable to begin my work process in RAW since the colors are wrong. Also, I know that my new monitor is capbable of displaying my images in their proper colors because when I use any of several different image viewers I have - irfanview, etc. - everything is fine. It's only in photoshop.
When I use select object, it never displays the marquee correctly. One of two things will happen.
It will
1. Not even display the marquee at all e.g. I use select object by rectangular selection and the rectangle marquee box is invisible (although I can still select things)
or
2. If the marquee does display it shows it behind the objects, instead of in front of them, as scene in the image below.
It's good practice to keep within certain color schemes for a business.. for brand recognition etc. But my problem is i started a company, and my first stop was the logo and website. I found a color scheme which i loved on screen.. its blue (#265E81) and dark grey (#272727)
I created a website aorund these colors. I then created business cards using these colors. And invoices. And letterheads. Now to my shock, the dark grey is So unreadable when ontop of the blue when printed out. Its clear as day on screen.... any screen. But just not on print. The blue becomes ALOT darker on print.
I do have slight understanding of setting up a document for print... such as 300dpi, and CMYK etc. But it doesn't make a difference to my final print.
Is there a method that i can find the color that will look like my blue on screen.. once printed out? Im tempted to just brighten up the blue on all documents intended for print... but that doesnt seem very proffesional or standard.
how do other companies pick their color schemes. Do they test there schemes on print aswell as screens before going ahead with it? I just see companies having the exact same color whether i see it on my screen or on a printed document.
I am sourcing icons from various places and trying to tweak to suit my needs. Tweaking involves removing or adding an element and applying a consistent color scheme. I am wanting all my icons to be a particular shade of blue.
The problem I'm facing is that some original icons are lighter than the other, so when I apply a color scheme although the color changes, they don't look to belong from the same family. How can I apply color scheme of one icon to the other?
Photoshop CS6 incorrectly displays Layer Styles when zoomed out. Different zooms display Layer Styles differently.I've noticed this issue since PS's document display engine was changed along with the addition on enhanced GPU support, but it never really hampered my work, until today.so, notice the lowercase "c" has some odd light colored shapes inside of it. These are there because I've applied a Bevel. Just how it should be be.
-This is 100% zoom: -Now 50% zoom: (notice the difference) -Now 25% zoom: (big difference)
I was actually working 25% carefully tweaking my little candy letters to get 'em lookin' all nice and shiny. Got to a happy point but then zoomed in. I was dismayed to see the extra bevel I'd applied look like garbage (refer to 100% zoom pic, above).
this project is huge - 28x36in 300DPI poster. Zooming in and out constantly sucks. I don't use Layer Styles that often but when I do I'd like to know that PS isn't lying to me when I'm zoomed out.
I have a utilities file with existing water and FM as shown in picture 1. But when I reference it into my sheet, the text becomes very tiny. Is there a setting for paper space I should change? The dash is correct, just the letters get small, so changing the ltscale in the original drawing blows up the dash also so that won't work.

I have autocad running on my partitioned mac and I have just created a multileader style with Datum triangle filled as the arrowhead symbol. In the view panel the symbol looks correct, but when I select the multileader with this datum style and add it to my drawing it appears as an unfilled triangle!
I am running a corridor in Civil 3D 2012 that has two baselines. Issues with multiple baselines in section views, but understand this problem was eliminated in 2012? In any case, this does not seem to by my issue. Attached you will find a section view through the two baselines (one is for a general overlay, the second for widening). The section view seems to display correctly at station 3+75, but 25' feet further down the road it does not display the corridor assemblies correctly (as can be seen by the lack of a ditch and shoulder overlay in the second image).
I have checked the code styles to make sure all links are included, as well as the comparing section view properties. All settings and styles appear to be the same, and the corridor seems to be built correctly. If I sample the Finished Grade corridor surface, it displays in section view as if the ditch were there (see third image).

I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and Creative Suite CS5, Adobe Illustrator CS 15.1.0. I'm using Suitcase Fusion 4 ver. 15.0.5 (latest version). I'm having a problem with 2 of my fonts loading correctly in illustrator's Character pallet. They display like a missing fonts in the character pallet as shown in my screen shot with "less than" characters around them: < Carta >, , < ITC Zapf Dingbats > These fonts and files do not give me warnings for missing fonts. The files print and rip correctly. The font displays correctly in illustrator when I use them in a layout (as shown on pic). They also display correctly and are fine in all other applications: Quark, InDesign, Photoshop etc. My fonts are setup correctly, pared down system fonts, other user folders emtpy etc. I have font nuked with Suitcase, Font Nuke and did a safe start up to clear font caches. several times. I've also removed these fonts from suitcase and loaded them in my system folder to see if that fixed it. These fonts are used 1,000's of pages/files so replacing them with another verion isn't really an option.
While I generally have moved to the new darker color scheme, I find that sometimes (depending on a number of factors), I like/prefer to work in the light color scheme.
It would be great if the color schemes could be assigned keyboard shortcut to toggle between themes, or if they could be saved in a Workspace.
I am working in Civil 3d 2012. Right now, we have about 5-6 different people using this software in the office. Each person has their own likes/dislikes for layer colors (also for their display color). BUT we all want to plot with the same lineweights.
What happens is the surveyor creates the drawing and existing layers (with a template). The engineer then uses the same drawing to design and create contours. The drafter then uses the same drawing to clean things up for final printing. So we have roughly 3 people using the same drawing. But the surveyor uses a black display and anything that is blue doesn't show up well, so they have it on one the lightest lineweights. I (the drafter) use a gray display have have no problem with blue so it's one of my darker lineweights.
What I'm hoping to do is create some kind of a scheme that would allow the user to simply change the color scheme (on screen) to match their likings. Similar to the User Interface. For instance in User 1 scheme, Color 8 = Blue. Then we can have multiple plot tables that would correspond to the colors.
