Question about the size of the drops shadow

Hi all!

I created a style that contains only a custom shadow. I frequently use this style of illustrations that I am creating a book.

However, since the update to 2014 CC, I had a problem with the style. The size of the shadow is different on each illustration that I apply it. I initially created the style to have a px size 7, but now, when it is applied, the size is sometimes 22 px, sometimes 30 px, sometimes 5 px.

Can someone tell me what is happening and how I can get the size drops shadow remains constant whenever I apply it?

Thanks in advance!

In my opinion, than if you create a predefined layer style Adobe store the resolution of the document that you were editing when you created the preset in the preset this Photoshop which allows the effect of style to the resolution of the document to which you apply the style layer presets.

Layer style setting as you are in absolute terms in pixels.  That means the size of the shadow would would vary on document with different resolutions, notice in the layers of the menu it is layer > layer Style > effects of scale... and dialog (s) in the size of the Image there is a scale Styles box or a balance setting Styles...

If it works differently in version CC 15 is then was CC version 14, they can be a new bug.

If you want a shadow of 7px regardless of the resolution of documents that you can be able to save an action that add a PX 7 shadow using the layer Style dialog box does not use a predefined style.

I created a Drop Shadow preset on a 300 DPI Document distance 2 px size 7px.  Then, I recorded an action the applied than preset and then applies the same settings using the style layer instead of the preset dialog box.  There is a big difference on the way in which the two steps were recorded.

When I walk through the action on a 300 DPI paper shadows looks the same.  On a 72 dpi document that the shadow of a Preset seems small as 300 DPI document however the step which was recorded with the shadow layer Layer Style dialog box looking for him much more leap has been reduced to match the resolution of 72 dpi for documents.

So it look like if you use a style of layer preset in style palette, the effect will be to change the resolution DPI of documents.  Notice in the action there is a layer Style scale 100% in step recorded using dialogue layer style.   Where the pre-defined DS is applied some how by Photoshop and Photoshop will scale the effect...

    Sorry for the typos, English is not my mother tongue.
    I want to ask some questions about the upgrade of a300-144.

    * Some info first.*

    CPU: T2370 ([http://ark.intel.com/products/34445/Intel-Pentium-Processor-T2370-1M-Cache-1_73-GHz-533-MHz-FSB]).
    Chipset: GM965 ([http://ark.intel.com/products/29821/Intel-82GM965-Graphics-and-Memory-Controller]).

    * Questions.*

    1. my frequency of laptop memory at 533 MHz, supports 667 MHz memory controller, memory modules can work at 667 MHz. Is - this because CPU FSB 533 MHz frequency and new processor at 667/800 MHz FSB will fix it or it is hardcoded in the BIOS?

    2 Intel said that the size of max memory for my chipset is 4 GB (2 x 2 GB), but Toshiba says that only 2 GB (2 x 1 GB), who is right?

    3 I know, taken of my CPU is μFCPGA-478 aka socket P, max FSB 800 MHz, max 35 W TDP, so T9500 ([http://ark.intel.com/products/33918/Intel-Core2-Duo-Processor-T9500-6M-Cache-2_60-GHz-800-MHz-FSB]) is a compatible processor or there are some limitations in the BIOS?

    The speed of the memory is related on the material. This means that the FSB is responsible for the limitation.
    If the FSB would allow support 667 MHz then the memory would also at this speed.

    > 2. Intel says that the size of max memory for my chipset is 4 GB (2 x 2 GB), but Toshiba says that only 2 GB (2 x 1 GB), who is right?
    The memory depends on the chipset. So if the chipset supports 4 GB of RAM, you should be capable of this move to 4 GB of RAM

    > 3. I know, my CPU is? FC-PGA-478 aka socket P, max FSB 800 MHz, max 35 W TDP, so T9500 (http://ark.intel.com/products/33918/Intel-Core2-Duo-Processor-T9500-6M-Cache-2_60-GHz-800-MHz-FSB) will be a compatible processor or there are some limitations in the BIOS?

    It might be possible that the new processor would be fully supported by the BIOS, but in most cases it should not be a problem if the chipset would support the new processor.
    But as far as I know the upgrade of the CPU is not supported by Toshiba or any other manufacturers of portable and its your own risk to run laptop with the new processor.

    $ HT or Properties $WT , I get an error when I use elsewhere.

    I think I should be able to use anywhere I want.

    The same problem here - I worked around by some DRM models with different values of ad.size, but it's a solution quite short-seight

    Also - you are not able to create the model with transparent background by removing style = "" background-color: $BG ' as it also throws errors - is the only solution that I managed to get updates style = "background-color: $BG; background: none; ", but it's a really bad way of coding things.

    It would be really great to have freedom in changing patterns.

  • A question about the virtual processors in the prompt

    Dear Sir

    I have a general question about the number of virtual processors in the guest system.

    I use VMware ESXi 4.0.

    Say if my physical host has only 2 cups carrots (with or without HT should be the same), then is - it true that I can only attribute 2 virtual processors per virtual machine?

    Is it possible to give 4, 8 virtual processors in virtual machines?

    In my drop down menu I can NOT choose more than 2 virtual processors per virtual machine, I want to just make sure that it is not the problem of license.

    Thank you very much.

    Hi Nanfang,

    linanfang wrote:

    So the general rule is the number of vcpus don't CAN NEVER exceed the number of physical processors. Is this correct?

    Replace "physical cpu" by "physical cores" and you are right, because a vCPU is mapped to a kernel. For example, you can assign 4 vCPU with a Quad-Core processor.

    If you think about it, it makes perfect sense. If you would be able to map 2 vCPU to the base, the vCPUs had to wait for them all the time because the physical kernel can simply perform an action at a time, why you would decrease the performance of your virtual machine by setting 2 vCPUs.

    It is not changed in vSphere 5.

  • The drop shadow layer style angle setting back to default when reloaded into the new file

    My question is how do to prevent the following occurs. I created a shadow layer style in a file .psd with the parameters below.

    Screen Shot 2013-03-27 at 12.50.03 PM.png

    I saved it in a file .asl I could use later. When I loaded it in a different .psd file later that day there, some parameters have remained the same, but the angle back to 30 degrees to 120 degrees all on its own, as shown below.

    Screen Shot 2013-03-27 at 12.50.15 PM.png

    I just want to know how to keep the layer style settings I recorded in a file .asl return parameters when loading in a new .psd file.

    My systems settings are as follows:

    Mac OSX 10.8.2 with 705,44 Go off 749,3 GB available

    The only other software I am running is Safari web browser

    This is my first time trying to save a layer style and use it in a .psd file different than the one I created in.

    Kind regards

    First thing you should do is update photoshop help > updates in in photoshop cs6, as many bugs have been fixed and your always on 13.0

    (not that your description is a bug, but version 13.0 had a lot of glitches that will drive you crazy when you meet one)

    Also, overall lighting can be different from one document to the other as you use global light selected in the drop shadow dialog box

    Layer > layer Style > Global light > corner

    See if uncheck Use Global light makes all the difference

  • Question about the sizing of the portalControlTreeCache

    I have a question about the sizing of the WLP caches that are based on the number of users of the portal in general and the portalControlTreeCache in particular. Are the caches replicated on servers managed in a cluster, or specific to each server? So if I have 4 servers in the cluster, and the maximum number of users at the same time for my application I expect 10000, I can set the size of the cache to 2500 + -, or should I size to 10000 + -?

    Thank you!

    Cache is not replicated on the nodes in the cluster. The number of entries in cache per cluster node will vary with load balancing algorithm and your stiffness of the session. You should also take into account what might happen if a cluster node is taken offline and users of this node now failover to the secondary server. But as a general rule, your thought process is accurate about 100,000 concurrent users / 4 knots = 2500 users per server. Note that only users who have personalized their desktop will get a controlTreeCache entry. No custom desktop computers share a single controlTree cached.

  • Why the drop shadow options change all layers not only the photo im working on?

    I have a poster with different layers, like text, photo, etc.  I have inserted a new photo and make a shadow, changing the size, spread and distance, but when I change some of these options as the angle or distance all the layers on the poster who shadows behind all the changes that I chose for the inserted picture.  I reproduced just the photo layer to use a drop shadow (using only the option of distance), then it changed all the text on the poster with her.  ??? None of the layers are related to each other.

    Only the angle of the drop shadows can be (and are by default) linked together. To enable or disable this feature use the check box use Global light right next to the Angle selector

  • Question about the guest of dashboard and column

    My question about the dashboard and column prompt:


    (1) prompt dashboard usually work with only for columns that are in the topic area. In my report, I have created some of the columns that are based on other columns. As I have the daysNumber column that is based on two other columns, because it calculates the difference between two dates. I can't find this column invites when I create dashboard. I need to make a guest on this column.

    (2) to one of the column, I have only two values 1 and 0. When I create a prompt for this column, is possible that falling of drop down it displays 'Yes' of 1 0 and 'No' and always filter the request?

    Hello...

    I forgot to tell you one thing... but performance wise... If you create the column in RPD itself, it is good and easy to maintain.
    If you want this feature also... once again you choose directly the column in the area of topic... ;)

    Thank you & best regards

  • A few questions about the difference between the Satellite P70, L70, S70

    Hello, I have a lot of questions about the P70, L70, S70 series that come with a 1920 x 1080 panel.

    (1) what are the differences between the L70 and S70 series? With the exception of the RAM and HARD drive capacity, books seem pretty identical.

    (2) P70, L70, S70 doesn't support a 2nd HARD drive or it's just the P70 series that support?

    (3) all the three (P70, L70, S70 series) come with the same TFT panels?

    (4) of the above series, which supports mSata?

    (5) all the model of each series are delivered with support from mSata? For example, it could be that L70 - a - 13 m supports mSata is not the case of the L70-a-146?

    (6) all the foregoing, are delivered with a S - ATA II or III S - ATA interface?

    (7) who is the best of these series listed? I'm trying to understand what makes the big difference of S70 to P70 except for the envelope for example.

    Thank you in advance.

    > (1) what are the differences between the series L70 and S70? With the exception of the RAM and HARD drive capacity, books seem pretty identical.

    What models Sat L70 and S70 do you mean exactly? There are different L70-xxx-xxx and S70 models on the market that supports different hardware specifications.

    (> S70 2) P70, L70, support a 2nd drive HARD or is - it just the series P70 that support?
    As you can see in this [Sam P70 HDD replacement document, | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/CRU3903II0000R01.htm] the P70 series supports the 2nd drive Bay HARD, BUT even if there is a 2nd HARD drive Bay, this does not mean that you can use the 2nd HARD drive. In the case where the 2nd HARD drive Bay are equipped with HARD drive connector, you can use the 2nd HARD drive

    I also found the [Sam L70/S70 HDD replacement | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/CRU3703HG0000R01.htm] the document on the Toshiba page and there I see this 2nd HARD drive Bay is not available

    (> 3) all three (P70, L70, S70 series) come with the same TFT panels?
    See point 1). Different P70, L70, S70 models were equipped with different material parts.

    (> 4) of the series above, which takes in charge mSata?
    As far as I know that some P70 models are equipped with an mSATA SSD of 256 GB.

    (> 5) do all the model of each series are delivered with support mSata? For example, it could be that L70 - a - 13 m supports mSata is not the case of the L70-a-146?
    See point 4) not all models supports the same hardware specifications

    (> 6) all of the above, come with a S - ATA II or III S - ATA interface?
    I don t think that SATA III is supported. I guess it would be SATA II

    (> 7) which is the best of these series listed? I'm trying to understand what makes the big difference of S70 to P70 except for the envelope for example.
    Not easy to answer because there are too many models released in Europea.
    And not all models are available in each country. So I guess you will have to look for the models that have been released in your country.

  • Question about the recovery partition

    Hello.

    I have a question about the recovery of HARD drive partition.

    If I do the operation to clear the hard disk option in the wizard it will remove * all * or it will keep my partition recovery in this way I can come back later. I want to know because I would like to put on a different OS.

    I know he said he would, but caution in the PDF, I found it says that on a normal recovery too (that he would remove each partition) and I'm a little confused about how the recovery actually worked.

    Thank you.

    Hey Buddy,

    To be honest I n don't know what you mean exactly with this option to erase.

    In General, Toshiba Recovery disk will wipe your entire HDD to restore factory settings correctly. This means that if you start from that disk and follow the instructions on the screen, everything will be removed.

    In addition, the recovery disk doesn t create a recovery partition. It is not available. Disk copy just the files on the second partition in folder HDDrecovery to start an installation of HARD drive recovery.

    Hi friends,

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A 100 - PSAANE with Vista Home Basic preinstalled in it.
    Now, I have a few questions... I mention below: -.

    (1) if I want to format my laptop, I need a CD to install for Vista Home basic... then I don't have this Toshiba CD when I bought the laptop. So how do? question: How can I format it?

    (2) can I change my Vista Home Basic to windows XP? I think it's much faster than this one. is it advisable?

    (3) I have a GB of RAM in the laptop. Increase the RAM? I think that my laptop has become to slow down. is it advisable?

    (4) and on my screen, everytime I try to change my profile screen to windows Classic view, my screen begins to blink. and after a while, the screen turns off. So I can't change that. I put the color scheme of windows vista only. What to do about that?

    Please help me friends. Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Here, a few questions about the number:

    (1) usually, you should get the Vista Toshiba Recovery DVD. If you didn t receive this DVD then you can order it here https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx or you could install the disc of Microsoft Vista.

    (2) of course, you can do this. I think that Win XP drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba driver page.

    (3) Yes, you can upgrade the RAM. For more information, see your manual or search on this forum for similar topics

    (4) maybe it s associated with the graphics driver. Check if you can update. I would recommend additional check if you are using the latest version of the BIOS

  • Re: Several questions about the recovery of the Satellite L750 features

    I have several questions about the recovery of Satellite L750 features available to it. Any help and answers would be useful.

    (1) when I started the laptop first, he asked me to create a recovery CD incase I need to reinstall the operating system. But he also said that he built in the recovery partition, so therefore, I have to make a recovery cd or not?

    (2) will be the recovery CD is exactly the same as the recovery on the system partition?

    (3) is the partion of CD or recovery includes all the integrated software pre-installed with the laptop?

    (4) also in the device manage management it shows watch partion recovery but it is empty, is it true?

    (5) in the second partition (drive D) system, he has a record with what looks like the recovery of files and folders. Is it safe to move/remove it?

    Hello

    I'll try to provide answers:
    1 - to ensure that everything works perfectly you don t need these discs, but if something goes wrong with the HARD drive you will not be able to do anything. When you have the recovery DVDs, you will still be able to install the recovery image and once again the factory settings. So my advice to you is: create these discs as soon as possible. Use only on DVD-R media and buy products of high quality (TDK or Verbatim).
    2 - Yes.
    3 - Yes.
    4 - No. Don t be confused with this.
    5. in a first time create restore DVD, and later you can do what you want. I put t know which files mean you but don t touch anything before that of the recovery disks to be created.

    In the past, many people have been experimenting with the structure of HARD drive and partitions and later was surprised when installing disk recovery HARD has been damaged. Don t make the same mistake.

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.

  • Question about the new Yoga 10 HD +.

    Hello

    A few questions about the new Yoga 10 HD + that I hope you can answer.

    I bought the former model, last year. Love the design and long battery life, but a few major questions made me return.

    • Somewhere that I've read that it can not read NTFS on USB so I guess that's the same thing with a NTFS formatted microSD card?
    • Can it read exFAT formatted microSD cards?
    • Anyone who has questions about the audio via bluetooth?
      (I know that BT is not exactly High End HiFi but the old 10 Yoga for some obscure reason - most likely a driver problem which nobody cared to fix - rang * very * worst with visibly distortion while both my phone and a Tablet noname cheap I have zero about fidelity - any of my devices bluetooth audio) I tried aptX or not)

    So to avoid buying it back it also I really I would like to see if I can get my questions answered before buy you.

    While I love the form factor and long term issues above are only two Mayor dealbreakers for me. Bad audio quality = no joy listen to spotify, local etc. MP3s. not of NTFS or exFAT = some great movies.

    My old noname android Tablet really could use an upgrade so I'm really curious it may be, or I should watch the competition and will be form factor and battery LIFE.

    Thanks in advance.

    EDIT:

    If it does not support NTFS or exFAT on microSD card have someone at - he tried ext3 or ext4?

    I mean with Linux Android root, it should be a no-brainer to support at least when it comes to royalties unlike NTFS or exFAT where it * might * have some trouble with Microsoft.

    I used a USB through a USB OTG cable. NTFS or exFAT have been recognized by the Tablet PC. FAT32 is seems to be the preference.

  • Just a quick question about the appearance of the cluster

    Hello, this is Matthew, just a quick question about the appearance of the cluster

    Is there anyway to rearrange the order of the elements? I know cutting automatic resizing, I could move the items by hand. But if I use the cluster somewhere else, I have to move the items again...

    What I want is of the order of "Mx My Mz Ax Ay Az Temp voltage CS".

    Is there a quicker way to deal with?

    THz so much!

    You can right-click the border of the cluster and choose "arrange control cluster...". "The user interface is not as intuitive as it could be, but it will allow you to reorder items. If you use the cluster in several places, you should make the cluster in a type definition and replace all current uses of the latter with the type definition, so that they all match. They will also update automatically when you make changes to the type definition. Otherwise, you could have a situation where you have multiple groups with the same data types, but with elements in a different order, and your data will be getting a new denominated, when wire you the whole clusters. The data will be in the same order, but given that the item labels are in a different order, you can't get the data you want, when ungroup you by name.
