Problems with changing/deleting of an adjustment layer

First post here and I'm going a little crazy!  I use the latest version of CS5.

I have some photos that I am currently having my subjects in color with the rest of the image in black and white.  This is a common trend, I do it with a lot of my photos, but for some reason I can't seem to remove the selected area, I created with the Quick Selection tool or the lasso tool.

For you show how I always have done:

I opened the image (these are jpg files) - the background layer is in color

I add a hue/saturation adjustment layer.

I adjust the saturation of the black and white layer.

In general, I use the quick selection tool to highlight my topic, I want to be in color.

When the subject is completely highlighted, I click on 'remove' and I see in the layer mask, the selected area black and my topic is the color of the background layer.

I started to do that today and went through a handful of JPEG images using this same method, but now all of a sudden I try and do it, but when I click DELETE nothing happens and the layer mask is totally white without any modification whatsoever.

Please please please help.  I have no idea why this method just stopped working all of a sudden.  I keep looking on Google to find similar problems, but does not.

Maybe your background color is not black.

  • Problem with the levels in PSE7 adjustment layer

    Hello

    I have a problem with the levels adjustment layer in PSE 7.0. I made this photo that shows exactly as I want it in PSD format, but when I save it in JPG format all adjustment layers are lost. I tried to get the same result by using simple Enhance > > adjustments > > levels, but I cannot get the same result with the same settings as with the adjustment layer.

    How can I solve this?

    I saw in a tutorial that might help add a new layer above the layer of setting and then merge visible layers, but it does not work either.

    I hope someone can help me if I can complete the picture.

    It seems that the problem is that your image size is big enough in comparison to the size of your available screen and you make your settings at roughly 18% view.

    Photoshop elements uses interpolation to show the images on the screen, so you can't really see exactly the result unless you view an image at 100% display (actual pixels)

    If you try to do the steps from the beginning with your image at 100% view, does make a difference?

    (Double-click on the Zoom tool in the Toolbox for 100% view (actual pixels))

  • Are there problems with changing the IP address of a system of v5.3 ACS after the initial Setup?

    I'm migrating from ACS v4.2.1 to v5.3.  I want the final v5.3 system to assume the IP address of the machine 4.2 of origin so I don't have to change any configs on network devices.

    Are there problems with the change of the IP address of the system AFTER the initial installation v5.3?

    I tried without problem. I changed the ip address of the WLC several times.

    You must ensure that:

    1-) you change the switchport accordingly to the appropriate vlan if the new ip address belongs to a subnet of a vlan different.

    2-) make sure that all clients AAA configured to use the new IP address of the ACS servers.

    Here is the procedure how to change the ip address of the interface (according to the doc of cisco):

    http://goo.GL/0BYqVT

    I also changed parIP normal address and it works. but of course, the server must be autonomous before doing this step (i.e. no secondary ACSS registered to him and he is not on the other ACSS in a distributoin).

  • Problem with changes saved in files Excel download (APEX 3.2.1)


    Hello community,

    I have a Table and store Documents in there.

    I would give a link for users to open a file downloaded Excel, make changes, save them and finally to close the file.

    Unfortunately, the changes are not saved.

    I think it's a problem with the privileges. But those that need me?

    When I go on ' save under ' in a file Excel open, the owner is "Apache IO" and I don't have any directory on the server to save.

    I hope someone has a solution

    Thanks in advance

    Before you create a shared directory (this is not a DBA, but a sysadmin task incidentally) and a background process, you need to specify what and how you want to do something first. Maybe a shared directory is not possible (for example in the case of a Web application). Talk to your system administrator before you build anything.

    Even with a shared directory, you must do a lot more than just put a file there. If a user saves a "myfile.xlsx", but what to do with this file? Is he related to something, such as a purchase order, the invoice, the project...?

    Maybe you have seen the document management systems where you open a file in the application and save by clicking the Word or Excel records. But these are based on plugins, Office and other software installed locally on a PC.

  • Change the type of adjustment layer?

    Hello

    If I create an adjustment layer (for example: curves) is it possible to change the type of release later?

    For example: create an adjustment layer curves & then change the type of adjustment to levels instead.

    You can't exchange adjustment on the created adjustment layer type.

  • Problem with change of speed on Twixtor Pro

    Using Twixtor 5.0 and After Effects CS6 and I am faced with a situation where keyframing speed % change causes the slow images to freeze for several images at once.

    What works:

    1. Drop clip in the new model
    2. Activate the time-remaping and increase the length of the model of a good minute or so longer than the source element
    3. Add Twixtor Pro to clip layer (seems to behave the same if you drop this model into another clip and apply to one)
    4. Set the frame rate to match comp (and extracts)
    5. Other low value, such as 5% % of the speed .

    Clip plays back nice and soft and slow, each picture is interpolated.

    What does not work:

    1. Repeat the above steps... up to 5
    2. Set a keyframe speed 1000%
    3. Playhead ahead before a second, set another keyframe to maintain speed
    4. Move several frames, keyframe speed 5% value

    When I have the clip, after the last change of speed, instead of a nice smooth movement, playback, I get a still picture, then several identical frames, then he jumps again to the next incremental image and so forth - with NO smooth interpolated images. The result, as you can guess, is very jerky.

    If you trash all keyframes and simply leave the speed change to 5, he plays completely smooth. Which is just great, except for the fact that I really want to animate it.

    If someone has encountered this?

    In the backup interval, I use Timewarp, but I'd love to address this issue.

    Hi Rick, I appreciate your persistence to help. It is certainly another way to use the plugin I have ever used in the past, but does not eliminate the need to activate the time-remapping. Certainly not as common as the majority of the tutorials out there, including the Re: Vision.

    Purposes of the argument, I tried this approach, but unfortunately the problem persists. Out of curiosity, there are specific problems that you avoided using the method solid vs apply directly to images?

    If I can dig up my serial number, I'll install the CS6 update following the instructions. I will definitely update this post if I get positive results.

    UPDATE:

    I am pleased to announce the upgrade to 5.1.5 solved the problem!

  • problem with changing the order of tab on tab control

    Hello

    I am aware that the same question has been asked over three years - but I can't yet find the problem in what I'm doing...

    Description: I have two controls tab, A tab with three tab and tab B with two controls on a Panel. For the following discussion, tab B is of no interest. Each tab control has several numerical indicators, of type integer and double. Now, I want to add a fourth tab control to A tab. This method works.

    Following and problematic stage, in the Publisher of the IUR I select the new tab (most right) and move two positions to the left. It's still ok until I try to display a numeric value of order of tab 3 (the new tab control is left to it). I get an error in calls to SetCtrlAttribute, complain about an invalid control ID... However, I didn't touch any control over the tabs, or add a new control. In addition, I did not touch the generated include file... Visual inspection did not show any changes in the include file (the new tab control is listed only when certain controls are added)

    Posting numbers on the first/far left tab control work only on 3 and 4 which are suitable for the new (and still empty) new tab will generate this error. Adding a control to the new label does not change the bahavior.

    Help is appreciated!

    Wolfgang

    Wolfgang,

    When you get the handle for your tab using GetPanelHandleFromTabPage:

    GetPanelHandleFromTabPage (MainPanelHandle, PANEL_TAB, 0, & TabHandle);

    the third parameter is an index for the specific tab you want to address.  If you change the order of the tabs, you can change the index, too.  For example, assume that you have a digital control on the third tab from left to right.  You want to assign some value, so this, you:

    GetPanelHandleFromTabPage (MainPanelHandle, PANEL_TAB, 2, & TabHandle);

    SetCtrlVal (TabHandle, TAB_numMyNumeric, 1);

    Now, you add a new tab to the left of the tab with the digital contorl.  The new tab is now index 2 and the original tab is index 3.  When you call:

    GetPanelHandleFromTabPage (MainPanelHandle, PANEL_TAB, 2, & TabHandle);

    you get the handle to the new tab.  There is a control with the same ID as TAB_numMyNumeric, so that you get a runtime error.

    Personally, I like to use an enumeration to my tabs so I can keep the lines:

    enum {MY_FIRST_TAB, MY_SECOND_TAB, MY_THIRD_TAB,...};

    So if I redesign the tabs or add a new one I just re - order enums and everything works fine.  Also, I used the same names in my constants of tab, to help keep things straight:

    GetPanelHandleFromTabPage (MainPanelHandle, PANEL_FIRST_TAB, MY_FIRST_TAB, & TabHandle);

  • WRT54GS - problem with changing the router IP

    Here's my problem: I want to change the IP Address of the router (and subnet) to 192.168.1.1 to (for example) 192.168.28.1 (long story).  I can do it on the base of the router configuration page.

    I have a desktop with a fixed address configuration: 192.168.28.90, subnet mask 255.255.255.0, default gateway and preferred DNS server: 192.168.28.1.  Three laptops get dhcp addresses.

    Access to Internet is fine, but local communications on the local network no longer work: shared folders are not accessible, and I can not ping to one local PC to another. (But I can ping anything on the web)

    When I'm back at 192.168.1.1 all is well again.

    Someone at - it includes what is the problem?

    Thank you.

    It is most likely a problem of computer software firewall.

    To resolve the issue, reset the router to 192.168.28.1, then power cycle your network, verify that your Internet connection works on all computers.  Then go into the computer on each computer software firewall and set it to "trust", other computers on your network.

  • Problems with changing colors

    As far as I know, I'm running Vista Basic and Aero for my color scheme.  Don't know which, it seems not switch back.  in any case, I would like to change the color of my windows, but when I go to the customization and windows color and appearance, it is just straight up with the appearance settings.  I made sure that I have all the requirements (as far as I know)... I am running Home Premium and have 2 GB.

    Can anyone give me any help on how to solve this problem?  If you could, it would be appreciated!

    Thank you!

    You click Advanced in the appearance dialog box to get the color settings.  NOTE: Depending on what theme or settings you used in appearance, the color you select may or may not apply - it explains that where you set the colors.

    I hope this helps.
