Copy the properties of the dynamic object
Hi people.
As it is Christmas time, I thought I'd do a nice picture of Christmas with snow.
It was ok until I tried to make a new layer by dragging my 'Smart Object' layer to the new layer icon, and not using 'Control-J', as by dragging to the new layer icon must copy the properties also.
The layer copy very well, but the properties do not copy with it, which would be a pain I want to make a number of copies and do not want to change one by one.
Any help people.
Hi BigDingus,
When you use the standard shortcut command + J (PC: Ctrl-J) to duplicate a smart object, the changes to the smart object will affect both copies. To avoid this, Ctrl-click (PC: right-click) on the smart object, then choose new Smart Object Via Copy. Now two smart objects can be edited separately.

Transparency of the dynamic object created in Illustrator
Hi guys! Someone smarter than me?
- I created the vector Illustrator object with opacity masks:
- I inserted the .ai file saved {by dragging BR} in Ps as smart object.
But look at the Sun. below: you can see, that the area hidden by using Ia - mask opacity is 100% Demasquee have, but don't you understand, the same area what when .ai file is converted to the dynamic object in Ps? Do you have any ide what may cause this difference in the rendering of the same object?
Thank you in advance!
Make sure you use the same color space in both programs and create your mask in the destination color space. It's a problem of color management. This problem is because you use different color spaces in Illustrator and Photoshop.
Most likely, you have created the mask in a CMYK (text) color space into Illustrator and your Photoshop document uses an RGB color space. Indeed you will have the same problem in Illustrator if you convert your document CMYK to RGB using the file > color mode of the Document or copy the work of a CMYK document and paste it into a document RGB. Having in mind that the problem is not limited only to the conversion between the RGB and CMYK color spaces, you might have the same problem when converting between the two areas of different color using the same color as RGB, for example sRGB template in Illustrator and Adobe RGB in Photoshop. For more details about similar problems with color spaces to check this thread:

Hello
Whenever I open any photo in camera raw in photoshop, it opens as a smart object in photoshop cc2015.
How can I disable that?
Already when I opened pictures in camera raw, it will open in the background instead of the dynamic object.

copy the smart object, paste in the new doc is smarter
Here's the relevant part:
app.activeDocument = backArt; var backDesign = backArt.activeLayer; backDesign.copy(); app.activeDocument = backTemp; app.activeDocument.paste();
If the layer I copy a dynamic object, it is no longer when stuck. Is it possible to change this option or if not actually copy paste a layer which is a smart object?
Both pis. I was able to solve the problem using two copies instead of copy.

Add anchors to the shape of the dynamic object?
I'm trying to change a shape into a smart object, for a model of an open book. I want to use it to generate images of our book pages (page/design spreads layout).
Using the single warp and skew transformation tools are not enough. The form, I need has a pinch in the middle. I want this kind of spread:
to comply with the pages right and left (top and bottom, mounted soft on each side).
BUT
When I create a dynamic object I can't add anchor points (can I?). Can I use rather naïve transformations. I can try a mesh of puppets (action hard to remove all small distortions of external form).
Is it possible to modify a rectangle (add/manipulate anchors), after you HAVE created a SO (in order to keep the flat rectangle of the PSB)?
I tried to add points BEFORE I created the statement of objections, but they disappeared in the main PSD after I creqated the OS.
I think I'm missing something obvious. Help, please. Makes me crazy.
Greg
You cannot add points of anchorage, but with what you want to do, you must break your text in a separate page and convert each page separately. You could probably make a page and then make a new smart object via copy, is SO independent, then back horizontally. Then open it and put the second page of the text. Just be aware that you will need flip the text inside the SO, so it's good to read again.

Flattening of the dynamic objects to the original document and keep their Hi-Rez detail detail
Hello, I am under difficulties with ram collapse my Photoshop files, please let me know if this is how to use smart objects for their Hi-Rez details, change your object voluntarily collapse / compress in the original document while retaining all of your changes and detail Hi-Rez to save on ram? If If Yes, what is the procedure? I searched everywhere on the net and have not found an answer to this question. I'm under that Photoshop CS6 extended on OSX 10.9 Mavericks.
Thank you

Thank you, Warunicorn, I do understand that you lose the benefits of dynamic objects, I guess what I'm trying to ask is to make you lose the appearance that smart objects gave you when you group documents? For me if the image looks still even with objects with or without smart objects their pixelated it does not matter that smart objects or they aren't. I seek only the general appearance, is he always looks good as he has done with smart objects. ?
Thank you for your help,
Abby
When just flattening? Of course, they look alike. It's when you go to register in a particular format is where things start to get sticky. (As the backup format JPEG.)

PS CS6 video editing, change in position of the dynamic object
Hello
Correct me if I am mistaken in my project, I want to make a couple of small clips to appear on the screen and the change of position. I so in order for me resize a clip to convert object dynamic, right? But it seems that I can't use a 'position' function more on dynamic objects, (it disappeared). So, how can I transform an object while being able to use the tool "position? Is it work around?
Kind regards

Instead of position, you will see " transformed" in the timeline that contains the positions and all other transformations.

How to open and copy the smart object
Hello
I read some topics on smart objects, but I have not found a solution to my problem.
1. I need open the smart object layer
2 copy all the layers of the smart object to another file
Thank you
Let's say you have two open documents. The first open doc is the one you want to fool the layer to the second doc is active and the layer you want to dupe is the activeLayer.
app.activeDocument.activeLayer.duplicate(app.documents[0]);
Of course, you can change the document references and layer as needed. However the layer not fool must be in the activeDocument.

copy the paiste objects in the exact position!
helllo forumers.
I have 2 questions about the paiste copy command.
is 1) I have several objects on a layer rectagnles circles and so on, im trying to copy paiste one of these objects on a new layer.but that he used
be paisted on the same station, instead moving in the middle of the Board of the art, is possible to copy paiste one object on another layer and retaining its original position on the map of art?
2nd question is also possible to copy paiste from illustrator into photoshop, as well as the object to be put in place where it sohuld be located, initial benefits
This is the map of art illustrator yet to be paisted on the board.cos of art of photoshop, I have the same problem as the object is paisted in the middle of the
Plan of work of Photoshop and then I do repositioning myself.
Thank you.
the 2nd issue is somewhat lttle confusing, is there a link I see from this demonstration?
There is no link that I know; I think I discovered this method on my own. :-)
I'll try to explain once again.
Start by placing your unfinished Illie Photoshop file.
Draw a slightly colored rectangle.
Break it down in a corner of the imported Photoshop file.
Copy/drag to the corner opposite and turn it.
Position the object that you want to copy in Photoshop correctly compared to the placed image.
Copy it with the 2 smaller rectangles.
Go to Photoshop and paste.
Your Illie stuff will stick in a new layer with the small rectangles in the corners of the canvas.
All you need to do now is delete the rectangles.
Like this:
Here's a placed image (grayed out). Copy the A and the rectangles.

Hello
I had a problem get a dynamic object name
I am trying to generate a simple example where I press a BTN he passes the name of the object, but then I can't use it.
[CODE]
Framework for action 1
showHide();
function showHide (myName) {}
trace (myname); This property returns ball1
This.ball1._visible = false; Mask object
This.ball2._visible = false; / / mask object
This.ball3._visible = false; / / mask object
This.ball4._visible = false; / / mask object
trace (this.myName._visible) / / it doesn't matter
this.myName._visible = true; does not work
}
Stop()
[/ CODE]
[CODE]
My buttons
on {(press)
_root.showHide ("ball1");
}
[/ CODE]dzedward is right on target here Moses - and in addition there are a few things you can do here that will make you more fluid system work. If you pass the object instead of a string, you can use this reference to cause the reaction you method without having to 'check' all instances (which I think is what you go here) so you can simplify all using something more like the following:

[REQUEST] Interaction of the dynamic object
Hi all
As you know of the thread I started before I succeed by asking a new textfield dynamically in the application main qml. But I still have a problem. I want to do a mathematical interaction between dynamically loaded textfield, here is the picture for what I really want to do:
Each loaded object is a user input. So, I want to make the sum of the value of all new items added to the label. How can I do this?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
Try this, of course, that you need to do a better check that the fields will contain a valid value, but it should help you get started with something that works...
import bb.cascades 1.0 Page { Container { Label { id: sum text: "0" } Button { text: "Add field" onClicked: { var newField = fieldComp.createObject(); fieldContainer.add(newField); } attachedObjects: [ ComponentDefinition { id: fieldComp TextField { inputMode: TextFieldInputMode.NumbersAndPunctuation onTextChanging: { fieldContainer.sumFields(); } } } ] } Container { id: fieldContainer function sumFields() { var total = 0; for (var i=0; i < fieldContainer.controls.length; i++) { var f = fieldContainer.at(i); if (f.text.length > 0) total += parseInt(f.text); } sum.text = total; } } } }

Dynamic objects in the disconnected model?
Hello! I have a problem with the connection between smart objects and hope that someone can help me!
A book-mock up I bought, contains a group of "Items" - layer - base, containing several dynamic objects.Those who are then used in different preview-layergroups (eg; before you book, inside the book, etc.)
In this way, I can import/pages cover rear cover of my book-drawings and models in dynamic objects in the items-layer group, and then they are automatically changed in various layergroups. Or that's what's supposed to happen.
However, somehow, a couple of smart objects was disconnected of the Basic smart objects, so rather than change all layers at once, I still spend several layers, one by one.
Check the picture belowIn this way the dynamic object has lost part of its use... How to fix / reconnect the smart object?
I got appriciate the feedback! Thank you!
IlseTry this (on a working copy, so you don't break anything, as if this works also depends on how the rest of the document is built)
Click the object FLY Original layer, that you marked as a basic form of object and drag it to the new layer at the bottom of the palette icon.
This will create a copy of the child of the dynamic object on a new layer
Move this new layer of child in the same position that the layer with the broken link. Make this new layer visible and her broke the previous layer invisible by clicking on the symbols of 'the eye '.

Thumbnail of the smart object not to launch Illustrator
Hi guys,.
I have noticed what seems to be a bug on my PC, when you use CreativeCloud. "When I double click on the thumbnail of the smart object in Photoshop instead of him launch Illustrator (the place of the dynamic object was created), Photoshop displays a window titled" PDF "Import '." " The process of making works perfectly on my Macbook, but on my PC, it appear this error.
My process is: Illustrator open > creative vector > copy Vector > paste into Photoshop > paste it as a smart object > find layer > Double click on thumbnail of the smart object... After this step, it will normally begin Illustrator but it currently opens the 'import PDF' UI, which then opens the file in Photoshop as a file rasterised.
Any of you have a fix for it?
Thank you
Warren
It seems that the operating system does not associate with Illustrator .ai files correctly.
You will need to set the OS for files association I launch Illustrator.
