Lightroom 3 - problems with the function of masking

Hello!


To start, I used PSE for some time and have recently started using LR, which I LOVE.  But, as in any learning new software, I hit a few bumps.


I looked at a few tutorials on how o use the hide feature (using the adjustment brush), that, as far as I know, I'm doing everything correctly, but it doesn't seem to work.  At least not in the way that I thought he was supposed to.


What I try to do in this case, is, in the treatment of a portrait of a baby, there are some extra noise due to an ISO high.  I am trying to reduce that by using the tool of the Luminance in the "Détail" section  But, I would try and keep the detail in his eyes.  Then... I'm trying to hide the central part of the eye while reducing noise in the rest of the portrait.  Pretty simple, right?


But I tried several times, in several different ways, to hide the eyes and reduce noise in the rest of the photo, but it's still soften the eyes as well.


What I am doing wrong?  Do I have the wrong impression of how this masking thing is supposed to work?  AFAIK, LR does not layers like PSE, t - it?


Thanks for any help!

Laughing out loud. It is not. The only parameters that you can use for the adjustment brush are 7 control string parameters in the adjustment brush and noise reduction isn't one of them. It is therefore no way to do what you do unless you cut down on the noise reduction to simply 'help' with the overall noise, then try to use a negative the sharpness setting in the adjustment brush. If you set the sharpness or less-50, you can actually paint a blur effect that should be able to do what you are trying to accomplish. You can also try a little less clarity as well.

  • Problem with the function keys

    Hi a few days ago my computer did an automatic update of windows.  This combination of time keyboard shortcuts in my Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 have changed.  For example, ctrl + any Fkey and shift-several different keys do not work.  Some commands are not options in games keyboard assignments.

    Is there a way to restore my original keyboard settings?

    Thank you...

    Are you sure that Windows Update caused this?

    Restore your computer (by using the system restore) to a previous state - before you install the updates and see if it restores the 'fn' and other features with FS 2004.

    See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306084 (assuming you are using Windows XP, because the game is compatible with XP and legacy OS)

    If restore fixed the problem with the keys on the keyboard and FS2004, manually install the updates one: after the installation of each update, restart the computer, try to play the game and check if the problem reappears at all.

    This, until you have installed all Windows updates.

  • problem with the query insert masking character @.

    Hi the gems...

    I do through xml schema, run... means using a batch file, I'll call the xml files and the xml file contains the names of files containing all the DDLs and LMD...

    No problem with the DDL...

    now when I run the LMD, all are working well except a few insert scripts...

    Insert into TABLE_NAME (EVENT_ID, EVENT_DESC, EVENT_MESSAGE_TEMPLATE, EVENT_MESSAGE_SUBJECT) values (4, 'abcdefgh',)
    'Hi,
    Order details:
    @Order_ID #.
    @Instrument_ID #.
    This is an automated email. Please do not reply.',
    "executed");

    This kind of scripts insert failed with the error "[ora: sqlplus] SP2-0310: could not open the file" Order_ID #, .sql.

    This problem is due to the @ character before the data...

    problem doesn't happen when I run the script explicitly, xml perform only the origin of the problem

    So, I need to know if there is a way to hide the sign @...

    Please help... Thanks in advance

    In SQL * more the @ character means: run a script. That would explain the error message.
    The real problem is that your chain is written on several lines. A string like this might work:

    {code}
    Insert into TABLE_NAME (EVENT_ID, EVENT_DESC, EVENT_MESSAGE_TEMPLATE, EVENT_MESSAGE_SUBJECT) values (4, 'abcdefgh',)
    "Hi," | Chr (10)
    ||' Order of details :'|| Chr (10)
    |' @Order_ID #' | Chr (10)
    |' @Instrument_ID #' | Chr (10)
    ||' This is an automated email. Please do not respond. »
    "executed");
    {code}

    But it might not be a usable workaound.
    As you create the string insert sort, you might be able to replace all line breaks in the present with you own custom lines.

    Replace (yourEventMessage, Chr (10), "' |) Chr (10): "')

  • Problems with the function of the crop in Lightroom 6?

    Hello; I use Lightroom 6 on a PC with a compatible GPU. I can't get the crop tool to operate; by using the drop-down menu 'tools', or on the icon of the culture in the module 'development '.  After you have selected or other crop choices and after having checked the selection "grid", I get no response in the image that indicates that the tool works.  When I click on a selection and try using the cursor, the image increases or decreases without cropping.  When I watch videos on how to reframe, I scrupulously the instructions; still can not crop!  What the heck is the problem?

    Hi MrKodee,

    Please, try the following steps to solve the problem.

    Try resetting the preferences of Lightroom.

    Press the option for Mac and shift + Alt + Shift keys of Windows immediately after you restart Lightroom and select Preferences reset in the dialog box.

    If the steps above did not help, then try to disable the graphic processor of Lightroom preferences.

    Open Lightroom

    Go to Lightroom preferences in the Edit menu

    Click the performance tab

    Deselect the graphics processor

    Restart Lightroom.

    Let us know if that helps.

  • Lightroom CC - problems with the adjustment brush and stain

    Weird question:

    End of 2012 iMac 2.9 GHz Intel Core i5, 32 GB of RAM

    Mac OSX 10.11.6

    Lightroom CC

    When you attempt to change a series of photos in the develop module I have problems with Lightroom gel. More precisely if I use the spot removal or adjustment brushes after two or three images, I find myself with a progress indicator of spinning at the bottom right of the image and the screen shows part of the image strong and part of the blurred image (as when loading an image is). It seems that no amount of waiting will lead to progress. All I can do is quit Lightroom and restart. But after a few images that the same thing is happening.

    If anyone else has experienced this?

    TIA.

    Try to disable the GPU acceleration

    Go to the preferences, click on the performance tab, uncheck the box

  • problem with the function 'higher Arc.

    Hello

    This is my first post here so I hope I'm doing this right...

    I added a screenshot to clarify my problem. As you can see in the picture, "Kick it up!" he shows a good top arch - only the upper part is passable and the lower part remains level. However, when I try to use the function 'Upper arch' to my own text, as you can see with the little 'dhfghfhj', the lower part is passable upward as well!

    When I try this on computers at school, it works correctly. So, what I'm doing wrong here? How to do the lower part remains unchanged? Is something wrong with my copy of Illustrator?

    Thanks in advance,

    koekedozekes

    koekedozekes,

    If you want the base to stay straight line, you can:

    (1) object > transform > rotate (180) or (vertically) reflect a copy and place so that baselines are equivalent;

    (2) set the opacity of the copy on 0 in the transparency palette.

    (3) group and apply the effect > Warp > bulge.

  • I have a problem with the function "search".

    When I type in a file name in the search box on my WIndows 7 operating system, I started to find the info irrelevant. That is to say: I type in "To Do List" (looking for this file). Next, I get a reading of the CONTROL PANEL (1) section followed to "See the list of running gadgets" followed by a list of e-mail files.

    I started looking for a Word document and make me a bunch of info, I don't understand and no files with the appropriate words in the name of the file. Same thing happens no matter what I type in.

    Don't know when this started, he has noticed yesterday (September 18), but does not use the search function a lot so he may have been there awhile.

    In addition, what are gadgets?

    The control panel is normal; I get that too when I did the search.  Because you wanted to search for a file whose name is ' to do list', you can limit your search with the name: property.  Type:

    name: ~ = "to do list".

    Gadgets are dohickey things that appear on your desktop as something that gets information about the weather on the internet and you shows.

  • I have a problem with the functionality of search bar

    If the search bar has changed recently and is shit... Basically, there is way more information to I type in my search, and if my mouse happened to move a button randomly when I hit "enter" it looking a different engine or go to "change search settings"... These buttons do not need to engage with the key enter, it's really annoying... in the screenshot, photo, I took it took my cursor but notice that "change search settings" is highlighted, if I press on enter would not seek, he would open parameters

    If you want to revert changes to the search bar and to have the standalone window to manage search engines, you can enable or disable this pref to false with a middle-click on the topic: config page.

    • browser.search.showOneOffButtons = false

    Close and restart Firefox for the changes to take effect.

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • I have a problem with the function of brush in Photoshop CC

    In recent weeks, I noticed decreases performance in Photoshop CC when you use the brush on the layer masks and adjustment.  It takes an extremely long time for changes to take place.  Please forgive my lack of terminology appropriate in trying to describe my problem, but, for example, I just used my brush on a layer mask.  After you move the brush on the parties of the photo I want to change, a circle of rotation appears as adjustment.  This last time, after having a past more than half of a picture, at 70% opacity, it took more than 4 minutes for the course ends.  All other functions in Photoshop, including all my plug-ins, seem to function normally.  My computer seems to work fine in all other respects, both in Photoshop when using any other program or software.  The problem seems to be limited exclusively to the brush functions in Photoshop.  I noticed it first on a 4 weeks ago, and it gets progressively worse.  I have an Asus gaming laptop computer with processor Quad Core i7, 24G of RAM.  I'm not super computer, savvy, then keep as simple as possible answers would be much appreciated!  Anyone have any ideas or have experienced this same problem?

    Thanks in advance for your answers.

  • Help for problems with the functionality of Capture from Adobe

    Hello

    I recently installed Adobe Capture on my Smartphone (Android device) and the app is very cool.  However, after a few weeks of use, the software stops working.  I uninstalled the software and reinstalled to see if that would help solve the problem.  Unfortunately, it has not solved the problem.  Adobe does not provide an over-the-phone technical support for this product, so I hope someone here can help.

    Recreation of question:

    When you start the application, there are four 4 functions:

    1. Colors
    2. Forms
    3. Brushes
    4. Looks like

    In the lower right corner of the screen, we see a sign '+', which, depending on which function you select, invite the user to 1) select from the cloud or 3) take a new photo 2) select a picture in the camera.  When you select an option, Adobe Capture executes the designated function and the State final changes / outputs on the picture are visible.

    However, when you try to accept or to save changes / outputs, the screen seems to hang up and return to the initial splash screen.

    Can provide you any assistance?

    Thank you!

    Jerry

    Hi Jerry,

    I'm really sorry that capture does not work as it should. This is a known issue in the app and the team is working on a beta version with a fix. I hope that it will be available before the end of the week, but I'm not totally sure of the timeline.

    I know we'll get it on Adobe Android Apps - community - Google +, then join this page and you will be informed as soon as it is available.
