• Determine the maximum length of a column and its use in the same query?

  I would like to determine the maximum length of a column and use it in the same query. Is this possible? IE:

  Thank you

  Sure. You almost go in your message: a scalar subquery . Just put brackets around the subquery:

  SELECT      RPAD ( last_name
            , (
               SELECT  MAX (LENGTH (last_name)) + 5
               FROM    user_tbl          -- USER is not a good table name
              )
            , '-'
            )          AS padded_last_name
  FROM      user_tbl
  ;
  

  Scalar subqueries in SQL are like tape in your garage in canvas: they are used for thousands of different things and open, maybe 1% of them. Usually, there are better ways to achieve the same results, such as the analytical functions:

  SELECT      RPAD ( last_name
            , 5 + MAX (LENGTH (last_name)) OVER ()
            , '-'
            )          AS padded_last_name
  FROM      user_tbl
  ;
  

  Still another way is to make the subquery and then join his game as if it were a table of results:

  WITH     got_max_length     AS
  (
       SELECT     MAX (LENGTH (last_name))     AS max_length
       FROM     user_tbl
  )
  SELECT      RPAD ( u.last_name
            , m.max_length + 5
            , '-'
            )          AS padded_last_name
  FROM           user_tbl     u
  CROSS JOIN     got_max_length     m
  ;

• Fill vs. opacity in the layers panel

  I don't understand how the filling works in the layers panel.  I understand how opacity affect the layers but funny, something happens when you use fill to decrease the opacity and then merge layers.  I don't use, but I'm sure he has a special purpose.

  Using CS4 on mac

  Thanks in advance

  Filling will adjust the opacity of only real pixels on a layer. It will not adjust things like the Layer Styles because the pixels are not actually on the layer.

  Opacity adjust all of the visible content of a layer

  It is quite easy to see the difference...

  Make 2 layers. Draw a rectangle on the two layers. Add the layer Style > race for the two rectangles. Adjust a layer to have 50% fill and the other to have 50% opacity.

• generate the ramp of the order of the layers

  Is there a method (effect or script) that will apply a linear ramp to layers based on where they sit in the comp?  For example... If it is a composition of 100 layers, layer 1 would turn white and 100 layer would be black.  Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated... trying to figure out a quick solution to generate a picture of ramp based on the order of the layers.

  Thank you!

  Siri and my iPhone help me with this answer.

  You can apply the hue and saturation of your layer. You can then add an expression to the brightness value.  The expression is very simple.  It only requires that you know how many layers to use.

  If you have 100 layers and a composition of eight bits and then each layer must be reduced in luminance of 255÷100. Expressions include the number of layer by using the index of the expression.

  The expression looks like this:

  (index - 1) * 25.5;

  Now just duplicate your layer 100 times.

  The top will have a luminance you 04 Black, the background will have a luminance value of 255.

  I'll doublecheck this when I get to a computer, but I think it's perfect.

• Help, stroke reacts only not to the order of the layers

  

  Don't know what happened, everything was going well until I have black square, zoom out and all the features of forms seem to ignore the order of the layers.

  Always on the search to see if I accidentally activated changed a setting.

  Anyone know what I have screwed up?

  You have applied the race to the layer. See the symbol of the circle to the right? It is filled on the layer. You should read the manual on appearances and the target.

• Order of the layers in the layers panel

  Hello

  I'm a bit confused by something on the layers panel in artificial intelligence. On page 174 of 'bright' Illustrator CS4 by Steve Johnson, he says that "layers in the layers panel appear high in the bottom as they appear in the document window. The first layer at the top of the layers panel is the top layer of the document window. The last layer in the layers panel is the bottom layer in the document window.

  This seems clear enough.

  However, when I created 3 forms on board graphics and created 2 new layers and put each shape on it's own layer, I find that the top layer in the layers panel is layer 3 ls and is actually the bottom layer of the document window, and the bottom layer in the layers panel is layer 1 which is the top layer of the document window. This seems to be the reverse order to that described in the book. Or am I wrong interpret the layers?

  Does anyone have ideas on this?

  Concerning

  Peter of Wit

  Hello

  The concept of base layer is stacked on each other. First created means layer (1) with a single object will be entirely down and last layer created will be the top of the other.

  As stacking books, first book will be completely down and the last book will be high.

• script to rename the layers in alphabetical order

  Hello world

  I have a name change script that works only on the numbers and I want to make it work for the letters too.

  What I want to achieve is to select a few layers-> load the script-> enter the desired name of the layer and brackets insert the letter of where to start. The script then iterates through the alphabet rename the layers and adding the letter from coresponding to the name and remove the brackets. For example, I select 4 layers, loading the script and when the guest comes on... Enter the name: test [C]. In the end, that I should have renamed layers testC testD, tests, testF

  Any help would be appreciated!

  Thank you

  So what you wanted, it is for renaming selected objects, no layers, right?

  Check this script, I took a different route, I added some comments, if you have problems with it, do not hesitate to ask

• How to choose among the layers

  I created a Keynote slide with several layers. Because the layers overlap or cover each other, how can I select a layer that is under one or more other layers if I want to organize or edit? Is it possible to see all the layers included on a given slide in order to choose the one I want to work on?

  I use Keynote 7.0 on macOS Sierra on a MacBook Pro.

  Thank you!

  option 1

  Click on the top layer of the set of objects to select, then press the button SHIFT and then on the tab on the keyboard to move to the bottom of the layer, press the tab key to move the layers

  option 2

  If your objects have an attached building you will see the object selected in the build order list

  If there is no attached effects, temporarily add an effect (blur has the least to impact on objects or melted)

  Inspector > animate > build order

  Click the object in the list of construction required to select:

  

• Keyboard shortcut to move the layers?

  Is there a keyboard equivalent for the displacement of the layers upwards or downwards in Illustrator, rather than drag? We receive some exported from ArcMap .ai files that can contain dozens and dozens of layers, and there are times when it would be so much easier to select the layer and press keys to move the layer upwards or downwards in the stacking order. Photoshop has this feature, but I can't find it in Illustrator.

  Thanks, Mike... that's all I could find, also, but hoped it was some little-known keyboard shortcut that was available.  I appreciate your response and will convey to our people. Perhaps the Illustrator team would plan to implement this on the road. I'll mark this "correct".

• How to add a path just above a selected path targeted in the layers palette?

  I put it in the feature request but maybe its already possible right in front of me... I have a few layers or layers sup with many paths, often I'll remove a path and want to replace it with another way of access, but in the same order of stacking against the railways in its layer. I thought I would click on select the path in the path, I deleted the layers stack and draw my new path in the document window to have it appears higher than selected path, but for me, I find that the new path is placed at the top of the stack, which could be 50 paths above for example... so I have to scroll up to find in the layers palette and drag in back down to the position I want, in layers of stack, just above the path I had chosen before shooting the new path.

  I would rather just to select the specific path, I want to attract higher up in the stack of layers and then draw in the document window, the new path will be added on top of this path, I selected in the layers palette...

  is there an easier way? am I missing something?

  I know that there is an order now maintained by illustrator, the last path is placed up in the drawing sequence. fine. But I was hoping a command could be programmed in where we can click on the 'target' circle in the layers palette to mean that we want the next course plotted above this target selection... something like that.

  where my explanation was a little wordy, here's an example, the way that I drew ends by upstairs, instead of above the trail, I selected below in the battery... hoping if I target this way below by clicking its target circle, the next path would be above him. of until I have clear this path with CTRL/CMMD by clicking on the button of his target, which would free the sequence of drawing of this target base and default back up to the top of the stack in this layer.

  

  You can try to double-click the path to go into Isolation mode.

  Then draw the new path and press ESC.

  This should give you a new path directly above the trail double you clicked.

• PS CS4 - how to perform batch processing which includes 'save' step and saves all the layers in PSD?

  I created an Action in PS CS4 to apply NIK Color Efex Pro4 to a JPG image, adjust the opacity of the layer CEP4 to 50% and then file > save as to a file in PSD format in order to keep the CEP4 and background layers in PSD format.  It worked well with the image that I was working in the creation of the Action - reopening of the PSD file, it showed the two layers as I wanted.

  But when I opened then four other JPG images, went to file > automate > Batch and applied this new Action to all open files, recording in the same folder as the original image, when I created the Action, all the PSD files created by the process of batch contain only one layer (Layer 0).  How can I me Batch process and always the CEP4 and the background of the layers in the PSD file?

  I swear it worked in the past, but I must be missing something.

  Thanks in advance for any help offered.

  See if implementing during a stage of duplicate layer in the dispute before the color efex pro stage of the work.

• Duplicate the layers of a plan of work on another file

  I am having some problems of duplication of layers to a Committee of art on another photoshop file.
  Whenever I try to reproduce it sticks to the first Board of the art of the document. I'm trying to stick to the third Chamber of art in the document.

  Can someone give me an idea on how to place it on a specific Board?

  Thank you
  Shawn

  (Long answer, see shorter answer below)

  There are a few known issues when transferring content between two work plans in two different documents.

  1. we do not keep the relative xy position within the artboard when you drag layers in an old plan of work in an old document to a new work plan in a new document. The self-positioning code currently only works in the same document.

  2. When you drag layers from one document to another, if the destination layer is in a work plan, we adjust the destination to the top of the layers stack.

  The rationale for (2) is a complex: fall of layers added xy by position in the center of the view, regardless of the layer order insertion point. If we inserted just the layers in the order you choose, depending on the location of xy of the artboard (edge of the view, or even out of sight), the layers added wraps being entirely hidden outside the boundaries of the artboard (Hey! I dropped something in my document and nothing happened). It is a very bad behavior and it has side effects, as the layers come out of the artboard unexpectedly at a later time during editing. So we put the layers newly added at the top of the layer stack and let auto-nid - drop layers in different existing work plans. If the work plan of destination is located in the center of the view, the new layers would fall in this work plan. In the upper part.

  We could certainly better on (2) and have them inserted above the selected layer if they would be always visible, but we should solve also (1) first, and there are many cases that we need to worry.

  These two problems are currently on our list of work and should be considered bugs.

• working with layers of animation in CC open psd file so that the layers appear as frames?

  I recently got Photoshop CC and work on animations with limited success, I'll open a psd file and sometimes it will open with the layers as frames and other times not I can put the layers in the timeline one at a time but it is very time consuming that some files are 100 or more layers I'll open the file and it will take only a layer of the timeline when I convert to video editing I'm going to drag the layers up to the first line, but when I go back to the timeline, all are invisible except for the first image I know that it's probably something obvious, but I can't understand it.

  PSD file have been save with aura image Animations Frames in an animation image in the timeline panel.  PSD have been saved without animation image and aura created video or animation of an image or a video in the timeline palette.

  You can create a picture Animation timeline or video for layers Document has nothing in the editing Palette panel.  If you create an image Photoshop Animation can make frame for all the layers quickly and easily.  Create the Animation of the image by clicking on the animation of the image to create in the palette of the timeline. Which will create a single image in the animation of the image. Use the drop-frame animation Palette, then click on branding point layers. An image for each layer will create it in the document.  If the frames are in the wrong order three is in the same menu drop-down to change their order.   There is also an element that will make any new added layers are visible on all frames.  You can also have Photoshop generate tween two frames with the interpolation point.

  Here is an animation of image that I created with two layers that are visible in all frames.  A layer of layer mask.  I created two frames. The first and last frames where I changed the position of the layers which has the layer mask in both frameworks.  Then I had Photoshop generated all the other frames between the first and the last images.

  I'm not sure that you understand the problem. Maybe you are looking for the new command in Edit > Transform.

  Red layer: as they appear in (and commit the activation in the options bar)

  Blue layer type: seized and used free Transfrorm (+ validation)

  Layer of green type: seizures and edit > transform > transform again it runs the previous
