Why my artistic filters are grayed out?

I have a tiff image file that I want to convert using my artistic filters, but they are greyed out.  Can someone tell me why please?  I am running CS5.

I read some other posts, and it's because I have to change the file 8 bits instead of 16.  Tried and it worked!

  • Why my Photoshop filters are grayed out?

    Hello

    Sorry for my English, my name is Anne, I have a problem.
    My plugin (filters) that I use every day for 6 years are inactive (grey)

    I 'don' t know why, and especially that it is the solution to recover it.

    Thank you very much for the reply.

    Nice day.

    Hi, you can check to make sure that you have RGB and 8-bit/channel selected when you open "Image > Mode" in the menu bar?

    Not all filters are supported all the picture modes. This mode allows you to get the most out of your filters.

  • Subscription of Apple's music, but the songs of the artist some are grayed out. Why?

    Hi, I am subscribed recently to Apple music that supposedly gives you access to anything whatsoever in the iTunes music store, but I came across a large number of titles by artists who are grayed out.  Not in my main library, but in iTunes Radio, and if I add tracks from my library, they are still grayed out.

    I active iCloud and I disconnected and returned but that only fixed not.

    Can someone explain this?

    Hello

    Tracks greyed out are not available for release and cannot be added to my music. I presume that the holders of these titles gave no permission to use Apple.

  • Add search filters are grayed out in WIndows 7

    Add search filters are grayed out in WIndows 7. I need to add more search filters, but can not add more search filters.

    I guess that you are referring to the search box in Windows Explorer.

    The entry "Add a search filter" is not active.  It's just a Cape for the pre-defined search filters shown below.

    To verify that you can see any of the predefined search, filters, drag the left edge of the search box of Windows Explorer to the left & it will expand.

    If you are in a library folder if poster more pre-defined search filters than the two that appear if you are in, for example, a folder in C:Users\yourusername\Documents\...

  • File navigation on OS x using openDlg() - why all the folders are grayed out?

    I am configuring a file and folder browsing dialog that works for the two Win/OSX and with filters to narrow the search to specific file types dialog box. I received a lot of help from another user on the forum (Matias Kiviniemi) in order to obtain the function of filter working - but now I have another problem: a little strange.

    When you browse the files under OSX, all the folders are greyed out!error.jpeg

    You can always navigate (somewhat) via the Favorites list and directory tree button at the top in the Center, but actually clicking in the records does not at all.

    I also tried saveDlg() to browse the files, but I have exactly the same problem with greyed out records. SaveDlg() is not the second parameter (the filter function) to restrict the dialogue to a specific file type - which is something that I need.

    // Utility functions for checking if the OS is Win/OSX
    function isWindows(){
        return app.systemInformation.indexOf("Operating System: Windows") >= 0
    }
    function isMac(){
        return app.systemInformation.indexOf("Operating System: Mac") >= 0
    }
    
    
    // All params below are strings
    function promptFile(dialogMessage, dialogType, extFilter, oldPath){
    // Description: Opens up a file or older dialog window for browsing (Win/OSX)
    // Returns: Absolute path (string) to the file or folder that was picked by the user
    
    
        // File
        if (dialogType == "file"){
    
    
            // Create filter function for the File.saveDlg -function
            var filter = null
            if (isMac()){ // OSX
                if (extFilter){
                    var filter_regex = new RegExp("[^\.]*\."+extFilter+"$")
                    filter = function (file_entry){
                        return filter_regex.test(file_entry.name)
                    }
                }else{
                    filter = function(){ return true } // All and any file(s)
                }
            }else if (isWindows()){ // Win
                if (extFilter){
                    filter = extFilter.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + extFilter.slice(1)+"-files:*."+extFilter
                }else{
                    filter = "All files:*.*" // All and any file(s)
                }
            }else{
                filter = null
            }
    
    
            // Create file dialog
            var path = new File(oldPath);
            // var dialog = path.saveDlg(dialogMessage, filter); // Same kind of error with saveDlg
            var dialog = path.openDlg(dialogMessage, filter, false);
    
    
        // Folder
        }else if(dialogType == "folder"){
            alert("folder diag:\n" + oldPath);
    
    
            // Create folder dialog
            var path = new Folder(oldPath);
            var dialog = path.selectDlg(dialogMessage);
            while (dialog.alias){
                dialog = dialog.resolve.selectDlg(dialogMessage);
            }
        }
    
    
        if (dialog){
            return dialog.fsName.replace(/\\/g, "/") // Back to Front slashes
        }
    }
    

    I'll cross post since my last response to the other crossed the moderation and released after you posted this (and it is relevant for this topic)

    There seems to be backup dialog boxes _SEVERAL_ versions

    • file_entry.saveDlg (): file_entry content is the default value, but do not know if he has locked her
    • File.saveDialog (): same as file_entry.saveDlg, but none value of screening. Maybe it is not locked to original dir
    • folder_entry.saveDlg (): looks identical to file_entry.saveDlg, do not know if there is a difference.
    • Folder.selectDialog: seems more versatile, "simply to choose a file.

    You probably just do some trial and error to choose one that fits, what are the rules everyone has. So far I think Mac has no option for "create a new file, but only this extension." Extension filter only seems to apply to existing opening and win (although even there, he hides just, you can actually set different extension in her typing).

    Confusion between the part which is the "grayed out of all cases" it would imply in fact wants the filter even though the docs say it is not. I.e. you'd need to do a filtering function that accepts two folders or files with right like below (not tested)

    filter = function (fileSystemEntry) {}

    If {(fileSystemEntry instanceof file)

    Returns true

    } else {}

    return filter_regex.test (fileSystemEntry.name)

    }

    }

  • Why the menu selections are grayed out?

    I recently bought 14 items. I installed it on my laptop and the application works very well. After installing on my PC, it works only partially. I mean here the selections in the menu layers are all grayed out. This is the case even for a file .psd with two layers.

    I'm running on Windows 7 on both machines. I uninstalled and reinstalled 14 elements on my PC (and ran the updates), but the problem persists.

    Thank you.

  • Why some elements of the taskbar are grayed out?

    original title: Vista 64 bit Home Premium got updated yesterday. Why some elements of the taskbar are grayed out?

    Hello.

    Yesterday, I downloaded the updates from Microsoft Update. I use Vista 64 bit Home Premium on a Toshiba laptop.

    I don't see the network icon in the taskbar.

    When I right click on the taskbar, go to properties, Notification area tab: I see that Volume, network and power are grayed out. I can't select them. The only I can change is the clock to turn on or off.

    Is there something I can do? No one else has used the laptop. Thank you.

    It works again. Sometimes this happens and I don't know why.

    I used my computer. I turned it off and now the missing things are back.

    Thanks for the info, I didn't have to do it well.

    Hi buzon4th,
     
    In addition to the suggestion of Lórien :
     
    Is the issue pertaining to only .jpg files?
     
    I suggest that post you a screenshot of the issue to better understand.

    In the meantime, follow the steps below.
     
    Step 1:
     
    There might be a possibility of a conflict of software of third party causing the problem to occur. Test/work around this problem, you can check if the problem persists in aclean boot State.
     
    Step 2:
     
    If the clean boot does not resolve the problem, perform the System Restore as Lorien has pointed out to the point where the .jpg files were not intoxicated.

  • Gallery of filters is grayed out in Photoshop CS6.

    I'm looking for a tutorial on an another website on adding text plastic shiny effect in photoshop , but I am stuck at the part where I need filter gallery that these options are grayed out. So my question is whether it is possible to activate these options sort or I have to restart the entire process in 8-bit? Thank you.

    is it possible to perform the steps that I have in my current file or should I leave early.

    As you seem to have guessed, the filters Gallery is not available in 32-bit or 16-bit mode. You can convert your 8 bit with Image file > > 8 bit Mode and go on your merry way.
