AECC BUG? Photoshop groups is no longer the import with layer styles?

Hello.

I noticed something small.  But important to me.

Import from a psd into After Effects works beautifully.  But in previous versions, when you import a psd model group resulting retains the layer styles.  This happens is no longer for me in CC.

Everyone there this problem?

Is this by design?

Is this a bug?

He will be back?

Thanks for looking,

-Josh

After Effects has never read the layer on a group styles in a PSD file. Application of layer groups styles is a new feature in Photoshop CS6. After Effects CS6 and CC are not last updated to read the layer styles applied to groups.

IOW, we just never wrote the code to make it work. I suspect that you were using a different method (for example, workaround below) to provide for several layers of Photoshop layer styles in After Effects.

You can work around this limitation by transforming your group in a smart object layer. Right-click on the group in the layers panel, and then choose Convert to smart object. You will now see the styles of layer on the associated layers in AE, but styles will be editable and PSD layers will be merged unfolded, not a nested model.

Please submit a feature request for all the features (like reading the layer on the groups styles, or editable on the smart objects layer styles, or to import dynamic objects as nested compositions) that you would like to have added to After Effects:

  • fade in the text with layer styles

    I try to have the letters in a Word to fade slowly upward. I have the layer text, added a few styles of layer (stroke, bevel, shadow) and then to apply the preset animation / text / animate in / fade up by letter.  However, which fades to the top are the styles first for each letter. The first appearance of each letter is the color of the outline, and then other styles are added slowly until the end of each letter.  I want each completed letter to fade slowly upward. I couldn't find any setting of host who could achieve.  Any ideas?

    I think the only thing that is causing problems is the race. Try adding the race using the palette of characters instead of the layer styles. Now, if you simply add a host of opacity for the text layer, set the opacity to 0 and animate the range selector you should have what you want.

  • The drop shadow layer style angle setting back to default when reloaded into the new file

    My question is how do to prevent the following occurs. I created a shadow layer style in a file .psd with the parameters below.

    Screen Shot 2013-03-27 at 12.50.03 PM.png

    I saved it in a file .asl I could use later. When I loaded it in a different .psd file later that day there, some parameters have remained the same, but the angle back to 30 degrees to 120 degrees all on its own, as shown below.

    Screen Shot 2013-03-27 at 12.50.15 PM.png

    I just want to know how to keep the layer style settings I recorded in a file .asl return parameters when loading in a new .psd file.

    My systems settings are as follows:

    Photoshop CS6 extended Version 13.0 x 64

    Mac OSX 10.8.2 with 705,44 Go off 749,3 GB available

    The only other software I am running is Safari web browser

    This is my first time trying to save a layer style and use it in a .psd file different than the one I created in.

    Kind regards

    Nikki Gutierrez

    First thing you should do is update photoshop help > updates in in photoshop cs6, as many bugs have been fixed and your always on 13.0

    (not that your description is a bug, but version 13.0 had a lot of glitches that will drive you crazy when you meet one)

    Also, overall lighting can be different from one document to the other as you use global light selected in the drop shadow dialog box

    Layer > layer Style > Global light > corner

    See if uncheck Use Global light makes all the difference

  • Apply the Image with layer.id or layer.itemIndex

    Hello

    I want to use the 'Apply Image' function in my JavaScript.
    Because this function is not available in API, I recorded with the 'ScriptListener.8li' function calls
    Here is the code that was generated (I reformatted the code a bit to make it more readable):

    function testIt() {
        var ref24 = new ActionReference();
    
        var idChnl = charIDToTypeID( "Chnl" );
        var idChnl = charIDToTypeID( "Chnl" );
        var idRGB = charIDToTypeID( "RGB " );
        ref24.putEnumerated( idChnl, idChnl, idRGB );
    
        var idLyr = charIDToTypeID( "Lyr " );
        ref24.putName( idLyr, "My Layer Name" );
            
        var desc30 = new ActionDescriptor();
        var idT = charIDToTypeID( "T   " );
        desc30.putReference( idT, ref24 );
    
        var idClcl = charIDToTypeID( "Clcl" );
        var idClcn = charIDToTypeID( "Clcn" );
        var idSbtr = charIDToTypeID( "Sbtr" );

        var idScl = charIDToTypeID( "Scl " );
        desc30.putDouble( idScl, 2.000000 );
    
        var idOfst = charIDToTypeID( "Ofst" );
        desc30.putInteger( idOfst, 128 );
    
        var desc29 = new ActionDescriptor();
        var idWith = charIDToTypeID( "With" );
        var idClcl = charIDToTypeID( "Clcl" );
        desc29.putObject( idWith, idClcl, desc30 );
    
        var idAppI = charIDToTypeID( "AppI" );
        executeAction( idAppI, desc29, DialogModes.NO );
    }
    

    The problem: the function is based on the name of the layer.
    This can cause problems if two layers have the same name:

    ref24.putName( idLyr, "My Layer Name" );
    

    How can I get this to work of function with 'layer.id' or 'layer.itemIndex '?
    I tried for over six hours and have not found a solution.
    Help, please!

    Something on the lines of.

    function apply(ID) {
    var ref = new ActionReference();
    ref.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('Chnl'), charIDToTypeID('Chnl'), charIDToTypeID('RGB ') );
    ref.putIdentifier(charIDToTypeID('Lyr '), ID); //Layer ID
    //ref.putIndex( charIDToTypeID('Lyr '), idx ); //Layer Index
    var desc = new ActionDescriptor();
    desc.putReference( charIDToTypeID('T   '), ref );
    desc.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('Clcl'), charIDToTypeID('Clcn'), charIDToTypeID('Sbtr') );
    desc.putDouble( charIDToTypeID('Scl '), 2.000000 );
    desc.putInteger( charIDToTypeID('Ofst'), 128 );
    var desc2 = new ActionDescriptor();
    desc2.putObject( charIDToTypeID('With'), charIDToTypeID('Clcl'), desc );

  • How to use the import with FDM with adapter ERPI script?

    Hello

    I use FDM and ERPI 11.1.2 to load data of EBS R12 to planning 11.1.2

    Loaded from eBS data for a YEAR.

    I realized I could use an import script to manually calculate the amount with the periodic_net_cr and periodic_net_dr fields.

    But how to use this import script? Because in my import in FDM format, I do not use a file but directly the adapter, if no field "Expression".

    Thanks in advance for your help

    You must use the ImportAction script.

  • I am getting a strange Visual bug... What is the problem with Photoshop?

    So I had this bug since I moved to Mac AND using Photoshop CC.

    So far I had been affected by this problem at work and could not share screenshots because of the NDA, but it happened to me at home! FINALLY PROOF!

    Just a quick note, using fully updated Photoshop CC on two computers, one is a Mac Book Pro and the other is an iMac, both running most Yosemite day and enough new computers both purchased in October with tons of ram and video/graphic cards perfectly capable. I use a Cintiq 12wx, but I tested the bug off the coast of the Tablet earlier today and she has yet occurred. 

    I was going to do a simple task of resizing, changing the aspect ratio of this photo as a wallpaper for my tablet.

    I saved it on my desktop and when I dragged it obtained these data weird confusing picture at the bottom of the photo:

    1.png

    Pressing enter does not solve it.

    2.png

    I decided to save, re-open and see if it fixes. Nope. I even painted on the messed at the bottom part. And when I placed a new fresh top layer and used the bucket tool, I got it!

    3.png

    As you can see it emulates in the photo below, if there is NO DATA on this layer. What the hell?

    I know I'm not crazy, it happened on 2 different machines, all updates and fairly new. I called support several times about it, but their suggestion of changing the performance in the preferences settings did not help!

    UGH! Please help, this bug has killed me at work. I literally lost days! This happens sometimes when I'm in the middle of hundreds of layers with large photoshop files, and then I have to go through each layer one by one, because it often corrupts text and flat images. Also, when you do the graphic design of the project is the MOST boring that could possible happen.

    You can observe me to add in the text:

    4.png

    The second, I finished typing in the text:

    5.png
    WHAT THE HELL! WHAT THE HELL!

    And honestly, I'm not that crazy, that it was not important. Sometimes at work, this will happen in a file I have works for hours.

    If I not save a backup, regardless of how much I do restart, flat images and text will be displayed always screwed up like this, and I have to correct by hand. Ugh!

    Could someone help me please? I'm desperate to fix this BS!

    I downloaded the file here http://www.filedropper.com/tablet in case that anyone cares to watch the PSD.

    I think you can thank Apple for that.  See this discussion.

  • How to change the weight of the contours with paragraph styles digitally in Illustrator CS6 (Mac)?

    Hi all

    I have to define hierarchical weight in my paragraph style of - say - 12 pt. How to handle that? I can only choose from a predefined list, which is insufficient.

    Same thing is happening here.

    However, you can first create a type with a run of 12 points, then define a new style of paragraph, and although she says 10pt apply 12pt.

  • long pull down the menu with no vertical scroll bar

    People,

    It's been 3.5 years ago when we had to learn that there is no way to have a long drop down menu control without a vertical scroll bar. See

    http://forums.NI.com/NI/board/message?board.ID=170&message.ID=217428&query.ID=395029#M217428

    Now, after that we got LabVIEW 8.6.1 there is still no the ability to remove the vertical scroll bar if there is a 'Vertical Scrollbar Visible' property node for the drop-down list boxes. As already observed in 2006 with the drop-down list 8.2 LV Smercurio, this property node has no effect, probably because of a bug. This behavior is always the same with LV 8.6.1.

    A few days ago a user of our software have complained that the menu items would be missing. In fact, they were not, but rather he oversaw the scroll bar and do not scroll to the bottom of the column - that's why it did not find the menu items. In general, it's pretty annoying if you have to scroll first before you can select a particular item. In most cases, the scroll bar is all just useless since the Panel is large enough to display all menu items at the same time.

    How do you design a long drop-down menu on your UI? Any ideas how to get around the scroll bar mean?

    Sorry for the lengthy post. I'm afraid that you have to use the vertical scroll bar while reading my text...

    Thanks for any input,

    Peter

    Stoeckel says:

    Any ideas how to get around the scroll bar mean?

    I think that's what you're asking.  This works for any named digital control, and I think a small change will be too much work for a drop-down list box.

  • CC of Photoshop do not adapt to the size of the screen Surface

    I installed the new update of Photoshop CC and now Photoshop adjusts is no longer the resolution of my monitor.  Is there an adjustment to the program?

    Can you show a screenshot? Have you set the preferences for 100 X or 200 X? In my view, there is an automatic function for that now which will detect monitors high resolution like the surface and automatically fixed at 200 X. You can post a screenshot.
