  • How to make the cursor more visible healing

    Hello

    I ask your help to find the answers to 2 issues related both to Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.

    1. I use the remove task L R and Spot healing in Photoshop.  A few times I'm going to remove a stain, and the background makes the cursor so light that it would be difficult to see.  I wonder if I can darken or change the color of the slider so it would be visible.

    2. when I remove a task in Photoshop, I can go over the same area that I removed a task and do more remove or modify.  In the case R L I need cancel first healing I did and start a new one.  It's a little irritating and I wonder if I can do the same thing in L R.

    Thank you all for your help and your support.

    You cannot change the cursor in LR, but if you press A, the tasks will be displayed in black & white. Press A again to disable the visualization.

    Every place you heal in Lightroom is represented by two circles - a place where you click and one for the source. To change a spot, click on the place, then it becomes active, and you can change the size, or drag the circle to the source somewhere else. You can also change the size, feather and opacity in the spot light modify Panel.

    Spot healing in Photoshop is done by changing the pixels, while in LR, it's done with metadata.

    Large healing spot in LR will be, as you may have noticed, slow LR to a crawl, so if you have many tasks in an image, it is best done in PS.

  • How to make the icons of programs appears on the screen of windows 8

    Hi Thunderlight, you helped me with my last request and thank you again now I have another question that you might be able to help me with.  How to make the icons of programs appears on my screen of windows 8?  I had to download the debut8 when I had windows 8 so I would have the appearance of windows 7 until I have to use Windows 8.  And some of my icons of windows 7 on my windows 8, but not all.  How to go on my windows screen 8 tiles?   I now get more usage of windows 8 and use it more now so would like all my original programs that I had with windows 7 on my windows 8 as it is now tile.  I thank you and hope you can help.

    Hi Laura,

    In theory, when you switch from an earlier version of Windows to Windows 8 - as your installed applications are kept by the upgrade process, except those who are not compatible - you should find all your apps in Windows 8.

    If they all do not appear on your start screen follow these steps to pin them there:

    • [Win] + C
    • Search
    • Click anywhere in the top middle of the screen to hide the charm bar

    All installed applications are displayed. They do not necessarily correspond on a single screen to use the horizontal "lift" to bottom of the screen to move to the right / left

    • Right-click on an application, you want to pin to the start screen
    • Click on Pin to Start at the bottom left of the screen

    You are finished. A mosaic of this application is available on the start screen.

    If there is an application, you are sure is installed on your PC and you don't think through the steps made me know - there will be more complex...

    If you install a new application under Windows 8 the corresponding tile is automatically added to your start screen.

    Hope this helps

    See you soon

  • How to make the same effect of scrolling like Tumblr (beginning Web page) with Adobe Muse?

    How to make the same effect of scrolling like Tumblr (beginning Web page) with Adobe Muse?

    I used Adobe Muse since the day it first came out, I played with the timings and effects of scrolling a lot. Tumblr landing page scrolling is very nice, I can see why you want a similar effect. Something similar could be created using the scrolling in AdobeMuse effects, especially if you familiarize yourself with the scrolling of the transparency. Start with a color block simple try it scroll up to double speed, then add items to the next page with the scrolling transparencies. Best practical work, use layers to do this, it makes things so much easier when you need to edit the page.

    Once you have played with the effects of scroll, you will begin to note how the elements of the Tumblr page can be re-created. This will be a sharp learning curve, but very doable in Muse for a similar effect. You will have a number of layers with page elements and new blocks of color on each layer when your done, fine tweaking the movement of scrolling and timings will make perfect. Good luck.

    If not, try adding an animation on board, you can create a Web page in Adobe Edge, but again... probably much more involved learning with this option.

  • When I type text, the text is in a box, and I can't figure out how to make the box go away. I never had this problem before.

    When I type the text in the latest Illustrator, the text is in a white box. I never had this problem before. I can't find out how to make the box go away. What I am doing wrong?

    Today I tried to close Illustrator and re-boot the computer. It did not help. I went on a second computer video/graphics/animation and open Illustrator here. I did a few tests, and he managed to create the text without a box. Then, I opened my first computer Illustrator file form. The boxes were there. I tried to type the new text, and the box was there. When I open the file it says something about a missing font and a replacement. I tried to use this area to locate the police but couldn't. It's the default font on Illustrator on the other computer. A variant of Myriad. I tried to type in the text with a different font. No box. The default font selected by the Illustrator has apparently a box. I didn't try to change the font because it was going well, and because I didn't know any font came with a box. At first, I did all of the text, which was on a white background, so I don't see the boxes of cream. When I added the background image of the boxes appeared. If the problem is resolved. It was a font with a box.

  • How to make the handles visible direct selection on the pasteboard?

    When I go to for transformation/resize images within frames using direct Selection, I don't see the handles of the image because they are white against a white cardboard.  I use InDesign CS5 (ver 7.0.4) on a Mac. I've been using InDesign for a few years and never noticed that it was a problem; all of a sudden, the handles seem invisble. I don't remember what the color scheme was before. (Maybe I'll lose my mind). The colors did not alter an update? There is an option in the preferences to choose the color of the pasteboard, but this does not seem to have any effect. In the meantime, I can't find the handles to resize/convert images. I can enter a percentage to scale, but it is sometimes useful. How to make the handles visible direct selection on the pasteboard?

    If you're talking about the color of a path and its handles, which is dependent on the color of the layer selection. Go to the layers panel. Double-click the currently selected schema and change the selection to something darker color.

  • How to keep the cursor in short to a TLF in ScrollPane?

    How to keep the cursor in short to a TLF in ScrollPane? Consider this:

    textFlow.addEventListener (UpdateCompleteEvent.UPDATE_COMPLETE, tlfUpdtHandler, false, 0, true);


    private void tlfUpdtHandler(e:Event):void {}
    textFlow var = e.currentTarget;
    var containerController = textFlow.flowComposer.getControllerAt (0) as ContainerController;
    var contentBounds:Rectangle = containerController.getContentBounds ();
    var tlf_mc = containerController.container;
    containerController.setCompositionSize (containerController.compositionWidth, contentBounds.height);
    var sp:ScrollPane = tlf_mc.parent.parent;
    TPI Update();
    trace (Math.ceil (SP.verticalScrollPosition), Math.ceil (sp.maxVerticalScrollPosition), sp.verticalScrollPosition, sp.maxVerticalScrollPosition);

    sp.verticalScrollPosition = sp.maxVerticalScrollPosition;

    }

    I can't do this as the scroll position will always be in the last line. I would like the scrollpane to scroll to the line where the content is typed.

    Kindly help out me with pointers.

    Thank you.

    Sabine

    Thanks I understand now.  I'm not familiar with the fl classes but here goes.

    (1) using the NaN being the height of composition that tlfUpdateHandler keeps the cursor in view.  It worked with a few simple tests - there may be a few missing details.  I call sp.update so that it catches the total height changes?

    private void tlfUpdtHandler(e:UpdateCompleteEvent):void
    {
    find the current activePosition
    var activePos:int = e.textFlow.interactionManager.activePosition;
    If (activePos == - 1).
    return;
               
    var tfl:TextFlowLine = e.textFlow.flowComposer.getLineAt (e.textFlow.flowComposer.findLineIndexAtPosition (os activeP));
               
    If his view not to scroll into view
    If (sp.verticalScrollPosition > tfl.y: sp.verticalScrollPosition + sp.height)<>
    sp.verticalScrollPosition = tfl.y - 20;    just a number for him give a certain margin above
    }

    (2) If you do not use NaN as the height of the composition (less accurate but works better) I don't think that you will be able to use ScrollPane.  TLF automatically scrolls the lines inside the Sprite using the limits of composition.  Instead, you need to instantiate a control ScrollBar and synchronize the contentBounds with maximum heights and also synchronize the scroll positions.  TLF generates a "scroll" event every time it scrolls the content.  ContainerController has a r/w for verticalScrollPosition properties.

    Hope that helps

  • How to make the top sites page appears when I open a new tab? Why have I not of "buttons" to pin a top site of the page tab?

    When I open a new tab, NO best sites don't show up... shows just a search engine box. I have Firefox 33.0. Why is there no 'pin' button when I opened a new page? How to make the top sites page appears when I open a new tab?

    Here is some additional information on the configuration of the new tab page:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste newtab and make a pause so that the list is filtered

    (3) double-click the preference browser.newtab.url and enter your favorite page:

    • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
    • Blank tab = > subject: empty
    • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
    • Any other page = > full URL of the page

    Press Ctrl + t to open a new tab and check that it worked. Fixed?

    Some traps:

    If Firefox will not let you change this setting: you can have what is called SearchProtect on your system.

    Firefox if allows you to save your changes, but he doesn't know: one of your extensions may be the substitution of her. You can consult, disable and/or remove extensions on the addons page:

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons > in the left column click on Extensions

    If the modification works during your session, but during the next startup is leads to: you could have a user.js file in your personal settings Firefox (your Firefox profile folder). This article describes how to track down and delete the file: How to fix preferences that will not save.
