CS4: Does not mask the layer effects. Bug?

If you have an image of say a person and an effect (a drop shadow maybe) and then apply a layer mask on the size of the feet, the result should be the size up anyone with a fading shadow identical to the person. That's how CS3 it.

NOT SO, in CS4. With CS4, the layer mask not "mask" effect. So, you get dark legs, but the body is hidden.

I'm positive, it's a bug, because I can open the bad image of CS4 CS3 AND it seems correct.

Attached is the same file I created in CS4 (with shadow to come through transparent surface) and then he opened in CS3 (clean, no shade).

Since you are positive it is a bug, I guess that there is no sense, which suggested that referred you to your dialog layer styles, click on the merge options panel and click layer mask hides in advanced mixing options. Bugs must be fixed by engineers, not the users, so I think that this post is a waste of your time.

    Hello Dan,.

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you get the message that the aero effects are not supported by your video card. I would help you with the question. However, I would be grateful if you could answer a few questions to refine the question in order to provide you with better assistance.

    1. What is the edition of Windows 7 installed on your computer (Home Premium, professional, Ultimate etc.)?
    2. What is the brand and model number. your computer?
    3. What is the exact message you get?

    The question could arise if Windows 7 is not compatible with the version of the driver or if the driver you are using, in particular, does not supports the Aero effects.

    Method 1:

    Run the next fixit and then re-run the assessment. Check if it is useful.

  • Precomposed layer does not recognize the opacity setting (bug)

    Hello

    I have a very simple layer précomposé including a layer of unique text with a shadow (layer style). However, it does not recognize the opacity setting in the layer main, even when the value to 0%, and the playhead is not yet on the layer. If I change the opacity in the precomposed layer I see come to the main layer, but change the opacity in the main layer does nothing.

    There is a difficulty. Apply a layer to your demo style, then turns off all styles. CR will now evaluate the layer styles in your source model and make them in the proper order.

    Why it works? You must understand the operation of the CR. When you turn on the continuous rasterization the layer type is identified before any effect or transformations take place. That's why you can scale a vector without problems layer if CR is turned on. This explains why a 3D demo that contains a 2D layer will be rendered as a 2D layer.

    When you apply a layer Style you change the layer type in the same way you edit a type of layer from 2D to 3D. If you want to have transformations applied to the layer style in the source file, you must change the type of the pre-comp Layer Styles layer layer.

  • When I scroll through the mask of image sequence does not follow the layer of the timeline?

    Another problem. I simply scroll the image sequence and you can see on the screenshot that the mask remains where it was in the beginning. I applied red tinted effect (just to show you), and it does not stick to the station when scroller is at the end of the timeline which is say that the mask is not to follow. But it should, because the mask is the image sequence. Why? Please take a look. Maybe there is something wrong with the Ctrl c and Ctrl v method - it's how I inserted my BW mask in the layer mask?

  • CS4 does not open the NAVE of Nikon D7000 files; Is there a DNC that opens to them?

    I have CS4 and light room 2

    Apparently there is no Camera Raw update for new NAVE of Nikon D7000 for CS4 files.

    So I downloaded the Adobe Digital negative converter Verson 6.3.0.79 which is compatible with Camera Raw 5.4 or later.

    Using this DNC, when I do step 1, "select the images to convert" I get the message "no items don't match your search.  It is apparently not files NAVE achievements the D7000.

    Is there an another DNC that will open and convert the D7000 NEF files?

    I just bought the d7000 yesterday and had the same problem with cs4. I downloaded the adobe DNG Converter and selected the whole folder where the raw files (I was unable to select individual images) and it worked fine. He treated the files one by one with the new name (without the pricetag CS5 $ 500 at the moment). The DNG files in bridge and psd. Maybe try to select the folder?  Good luck.

  • InDesign CS4 does not display the icon in the shape of triangle for the images changed into links

    My InDesign crashed the other day and now it gives me is no longer the yellow triangle icon in the links Panel to indicate that image has been changed and must be updated. I generally do not connect the image to the original through Indesign, but work independently in Photoshop. This has never been a problem. After that I updated the image in PS, the triangle appears instantly in ID in order to be able to click on it and update the image.

    I can always click on the Refresh button to update the image, but I wish that these rear indicators because it helps me with older documents - so that I can know what are the images really need to update and which are not.

    I restarted the Panel and launched and closed the bridge such as suggested in other older discussions, and he has not made a difference. I also noticed that if I try to open the original image by ID with open with, the icon for the PS, for example, doesn't think I'm in PS (it opens the image in Windowd Paint). It makes me wonder is the whole connection between ID and PS is messed up. How can I correct this connection?

  • Lightroom 3 "Edit in photoshop CS4" does not retain the values of 'detail '.

    Hi all

    I give a try lightroom 3 (finally...), but has noticed that when I have an image to which I applied 'detail' adjustments to reduce the luminescence and color, using "Edit in Photoshop CS4" noise opens the image without the detail adjustments applied. I don't see the option to choose whether to change 'image' or 'image with the lightroom settings' any place and I'm scratching my head trying to find an option in the preferences (prefs both LR and catalog) that allows me to choose 'change with lightroom applied settings '.

    In this way, it is a bit useless.

    Does anyone know how to ' Edit in...» "for lightroom 3 always apply the corrections to image to the copy of the edition?

    Choose rendering with option of Lightroom - not thatdisplay? By default "Edit with" uses the version of Photoshop to Adobe Camera Raw and CS4 is older than LR3.

  • CS4 does not recognize the MPG files that it captured previously

    Hello

    I have spent some time in the knowledge base and search the Forum, but don't see anything that could help me.

    Windows 7 64-bit on Intel I - 7 920 quad 12 GB of ram CS4 version 4.2.1.  This problem developed there months after installing the suite CS.  Other than what is explained here, there were no changes to the operating system or CS4.

    The problem is that CS4 has ceased to recognize imported MPG files to a HDV camera about a month, using the PrPro capture utility (F5?).  These files have been imported into the project and then treatment Panel (MIC, effects, etc.) on a 64 THAT HDV preset timeline minute.  The entire sequence has been made and read successfully.

    After completing the sequence, I exported it with SOUL to create the elementals of blue ray MPEG to add in yet.  The TEA code finished without obvious mistake.

    Then I created a project again and tried to add the asset - an audio and a video file.  The audio file is added without problem.  Importing video files failed 99% with encorr and Windows hung.  Power off required stop.

    Suspecting a problem with the video file, I open the video file in Windows Media Player and it played ok.  (I note here that this was the first time on this machine that I used WMP, and he did a few configuration steps?)

    I tried yet again without success.  At the next reboot, I open the windows task manager and placed on the second screen so I could watch the CPU to use.  The use of the CPU ran 3 to 8% but when still hung, grew the Task Manager

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled again and SOUL and then upgraded for current levels of the rev.  Same answer as before.

    Based on a post on the site again, I deleted the cache of media key in the registry and rebooted.  Always without success.

    At this point, I decided to see if one of these manipulations had affected the PrPro project.  The project, the sequence and the project Panel all come up as before.  However, all the MPG files were marked OFFLINE.  AVI files and PSD image files were unaffected - they remain linked. These files are all on the HARD disk in the PC itself - no removable disks or network

    I tried to re bind the file by clicking on the main capture file, but each attempt resulted in the error message "unsupported format". or corrupted file.

    Using WMP, I found that the files were not damaged.  I also confirmed that ADobe had recreated the media cache keys and was in fact identified files files.

    I tried to reimport the original capture file and received the same error message.

    I have paid full CS4 and I confirmed that I had options MPEG, when I created a new project.

    For now, I'm more interested fixed the PrPro reason no longers recognizes MPG files he captured, processed and made yesterday. I will fight the problem still on this site.

    Everyone knows this or can make a suggestion how to fix this?

    I do not see why reinstall again and SOUL would have caused this.  I can suspect WMP.  Where can I find which codecs are charged and their priority? What is the codec for prpro would look? MainConcept?

    I intend to use Gspot to see this as code mpg files - need the codec used by adobe.

    Any help you give would be appreciated.

    I can help you with one of those - project files/folders are intact. I am paranoid that I save things like that, even if they should not be affected in some way.

    Like the Adobe Clean Script, run several times is designed to eliminate all things Adobe CS4, I don't know how it might affect the other Adobe programs in a suite. Maybe others can give you a definitive answer.

    I also usually recommend run a cleaner registry, like CCleaner (and to let the default registry backup first), before the reinstall. IIRC, a user had a problem with him, but could have been OE, as most of the users here swear by it, and I've never had a problem (always do the backup of the registry but).

    Good luck and sorry for the bad news. Maybe someone from Adobe can shed more light on why, but I have yet to hear of what happens with CS5, so maybe all that has allowed the reversion has been fixed.

    Furthermore, it seems important to make all updates immediately after reinstalling, before launching the program. It is in any case the recommendation.

  • Why vmware workstation does not mask the cpuid SYSCALL/SYSRET little?

    I am running VMware workstation 11.1.3 on linux.  In my client operating system 64-bit, I notice that cpuid for eax = 0 x 8000001 returns a value edx masks who has always little 11.  It's the bit SYSCALL/SYSRET ability.

    Here is the part of the vmware.log file shows the parameters of my hostCPUID:

    2016 02-03 T 15: 59:19.629 - 08:00 | VMX | I120: hostCPUID level 80000001, 0: 0x00000000 0x00000000 0 x 00000021 0x2c100800

    As you can see, edx is 0x2c100800, which means that my system is capable of SYSCALL/SYSRET.

    I tried to add the following to my vmx file:

    monitor_control.enable_fullcpuid = 'TRUE '.

    CPUID.80000001.EDX = '-:-:-:-:-: 1 -: -: - ".

    Unfortunately, even with these settings, my diary of vmware shows no entry in the section 'Differences CPUID of hostCPUID' to cpuid.80000001.

    As a test, I tried to change bit 10 instead of 11 to cpuid.80000001.edx bits and the difference that presented themselves.  So what is the 11 bit characteristic, and why is he always have hidden inside the virtual machine no matter what I do?

    Thank you.

    You check what code 64-bit or 32-bit code in compatibility mode?  Mode 32 bits (legacy and compatibility), only AMD processors set this bit.

  • AE CS4 does not start on the Multi-Core system

    I use an older version of After Effects (AE CS4).  I recently built a new job which is bootable in different choices of multicore (up to 40 cores).

    I can start AE CS4 on the configs of start up to 16 cores.  But above all that, AE CS4 does not start.  It will not even appear the start screen (but the AfterFX_32.exe process appears in Task Manager).

    I was wondering if it is possible to get the AE CS4 to work on configs with more than 16 cores?

    Thanks for all the ideas!

    N ° there is no way because at the time operating systems did not use more hearts and thus the libraries underlying system down to the C/C++ code can not handle.
