BG covers 1st layer?

Hello: Level: Newbie'ish OS: Win7 64bit PS:CS6
I am just curious about the following...
Below is the layers panel with the BG layer OFF and the picture below it shows how my image looks when the BG is OFF.
Now here is the layers panel with the BG layer ON
and here's my image when the BG layer is ON
I am a bit confused as to why the white BG is covering the 1st layer above it ... isn't the BG layer suppose to Always be Behind the 1st layer? Both BG layers are locked and in the same Z order ....
So, I'm just wondering why this is happening. Thanx for your time and thoughts ~ hope everyone is well and having a great day/night!

Hello Noel:
The Strangest thing .... I just went to open the file in order to send it to Dropbox and it is not doing it any more ... ? ?
That's so very odd. I wonder why it magically fixed itself?
Must have been either a PC or PS "Brain" Fart! lol
I was just curious as to why it was happening b/c I didn't think it was suppose to happen.
An other PC/PS mystery gone unsolved ....
As always Noel thank you Very much for helping out!!
LOL ... i just noticed i named one of my layers ... "Logo that i'm sick and tired of doing" LOL
i had redone the darn fork so many times i never wanted to draw it again.

Cannot access beyond 1st layer webpage. But it works when I use Explorer

I cannot navigate to select another option in a particular field. When I do that in Explorer, it works. Specific field - I should be able to choose "SGX", "NYC", "Sedsaq", etc., but the field is "frozen" although I try clicking it many times... it do not response. But when I user Explorer browser, the function works.

Can you attach a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot screenshot] to see a comparison?
I'm on Linux and can't test with the other browsers that you mentioned.
Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (200 KB) and do not click Preview after you have attached the image.

UNABLE TO CLCIK ON 1ST FOI LAYER WHEN ANOTHER LAYER IS DISPLAYED

Hi Team !
Using Mapviewer Javascript API to add layers to a map, with set visible = false.
when 1 layer is made visible, the point item can be clicked on/selected. Make another layer visible and the 1st layer becomes deactivated.
Is it expected behavior ?
Thank you,
Raj

I have 2 theme based FOI layers.The 2nd layer covers the 1st layer. I need process an event "mouse_click" on 2nd layer.But 2nd layer doesn't get this event, the 1st layer gets. How may I propogate these event from 1st layer to 2nd layer? I tried to use a function enableEventPropagation() on 1st layer but it didn't help.

Photoshop Elements 7 folder layer doesn't wanted to collapse. Need help!

Hi all,
Recently i purchased a catalog online, it is under .psd format and i assumed that everything is covered in layer which is editable.
Not until then i downloaded and most of the content are under folder. Others work fine which i saw in internet tutorial which just only double click on it and they will show a drop down box.
But in PSE7 , it doesn't. Instead, they asked me to rename it.
I screenshot them and please refer below.
I am working on window 7 OS btw

Photoshop elements doesn't normally allow users to open, close or edit layer groups (layer sets), which are usually made in the full version of photoshop ( i.e. cs6 or cc2014)
If you notice the pencil icon with slash to the right of the folder name in the layers panel means that layer group is not editable in pse 7.
If you want to edit the layer groups you might use this action from over on elements village:
Opening layer sets in PSE7 - Elements Village
Or check out Elements+

DTL won't eject on dual layer disc "deadline please help"

Hi everyone, I'm working on the 2 discs dualayer dvd-9. My 2nd disc went fine & the replication house is very happy. However my 1st disc is failed. I need help from a guru quick.
Ok here's the 1st deal:
on my 2nd disc, DSP4 ask me to insert the 2nd dlt for layer 2 after it finished formating layer 1 & the dtl is rewinded back to the begining & the GREEN unload button is ON meaning I can take out the first layer & put the 2nd dlt in for the next layer.
BUT on my 1st DISC, the GREEN button doesn't pop up & it keeps on rewinding & writing the 2nd layer over the 1st layer. It doesn't give me a chance to take the dtl out. When I actually click on the unload button it ejected out & DSP4 is crashed.
Should anyone one know why?
thankx

Hi Matthias,
Yes, we have a verifier here which pick up most of the spec problems plus we have a Snell and Wilcox mpeg analysis tool.
We no longer use DVDSP for authoring because of the high failure rate of it's navigation. In addition about 5% of the time DVDSP creates faulty build but as far as the compiler is concerned it has done a fine job. Then separately to this 5% of DVDSP's writes to tape are also faulty for various reasons.
Part of the original problem was found to be the Adaptec SCSI card. But this only accounted for a small percentage of the failures. The rest was down to poor write control from DVDSP.
We do 20 - 30 DVD's a week. So obviously this is not a viable solution. But also why we are acutly aware of the problems with the workflow.
Have fun.

Dual Layer Break Points

Ideally, I would like to create my own break point. Using the OTP method, I know that I need to have the 1st layer larger than the second. Can I simply choose a break just over the 1/2 way in my Movie? ie. 1hr32 long for the first layer, 1hr28 long for the second...or does it have to be close to the 3.9Gig mark before changing layers? My break point of choice happens to be the only place that I have a fade to black, that's why it makes it ideal.
I also have several Chapter Markers in the Movie (that don't fade to black)..so if I choose the Auto Break Point option, I don't know how find where the program has chosen to break it at. I want to view before I burn..or atleast know where it is. Is this info in the Build folder somewhere?
Thanks in advance!!!!
Heather
Mac OS X (10.4.2)

when you click on any chapter marker, the property inspector allows you to assign it as a dual layer break point. layer 0 must be larger than layer 1. Also you can place a marker and in the property inspect uncheck chapter marker and check dual layer break point.

Duel layer breakpoints

I'm looking for some information on Duel-layer break points. Specifically,
1. I have a highly interactive disk (250 menus, 200 scripts, 50 tracks) that has quizes, games, videos and a .pdf as rom content. Is it best to keep the menu jumps and scripts on one layer and video on another, or should I try to keep as much on the 1st layer and bury the less important material on the second layer? I have created a similar disc in the past, but was able to keep all but one long track on the 1st layer.
2. Does rom content have to go on a specific layer? I seem to remember reading somewhere that it has to go on the 1st layer.
3. I have multiple jumps from almost everwhere on my DVD, from tracks to scripts to menus --almost everything has several connections. Will this cause a problem for setting the breakpoint, should I use automatic, and what does automatic do?
Any suggestions or links would be aprriciated.
Thanks
Jason

In response to MartinR - I am using the following:
MacBook Pro: MacBookPro6,1
OS X Mountain Lion - 10.8.4
I used a VCR hooked up to my MBP through an ION VIDEO2PC, I converted all of them to mp4 after I edited all of the snow and junk out of the videos in iMovie - They are all now mp4 files
iDVD version 7.1.2
Memorex DL DVD+R
I still can burn single layer DVDs, BUT they are doing the same thing when I try to make multiples, making copies through iDVD after the intial one is burned. So I have to cancel out of the burning process, it usually works and take about 18 mins. vs the 2-3 hrs. that it takes the inital DVD to burn
If it means anything I have/had all of my video files on an external 2TB hard drive and now I copy the files I plan to use back to the main drive on the MBP to see if that helps things
In response to Courcoul - I did a Get Info on the blank DL DVD and it said 6,148 bytes (8 KB on disk) for 1 item
I value both of your opinions, thank you both for responding, tell me what you think could be the hang-up on all of this since I gave you more info. If you need more info the make a better decision just let me know.

Image layer edge snapping failure

Hi
ok here is the story
i open an image to photoshop cs5 and it opens as a background layer, right?
now i drag n drop from windows exporer the same image over the cs5 on top opening as a new layer.
It shows up an X over the image where you can reposition the second image (layer) over the first.
i don't want to reposition, its the same image, i want the pixels of the second layer to match EXACTLY the first layer.
i press the TICK button or ENTER where the new layer gets the images name
BUT when i zoom in 1600% or 3200% and move to the edge i see the edges of the new layer not positioned exactly over the 1st layer.
it positions the new layer 1 or 2 pixels to the right and some times 1 or 2 pixels to the bottom.
it doesn't snap the edge.
i know i can fix it afterwards by align the layers from the layer -> align menu
but its annoying, even creating an action..
is there a setting in the prefrences which i'm missing?
is it a bug? if so, can this be fixed in CS6?
thank you

Bo, the same problem can occur if you bring in several different images that are registered to one another down to the pixel. I had this happen once when I was doing a series of screen grabs of a window and was preparing to animate them via a GIF. The problem is that the placed image is off to the bottom-right by one pixel. Note the offset showing in this screen grab, after placing an identically registered image over a background, then hiding the background.
Another way to accomplish getting a bunch of images in separate layers is File - Scripts - Load Files into Stack.

Help with first flash game?

Hi. My name's Rory.
I am an artist.
http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=PimpOfPixels
http://roaring23.cgsociety.org/gallery/
I am learning action script and Flash so that I can make
games.
I am not a complete novice in programming. I am proficient in
Java and in MaxScript (3DSMAX embedded language).
I have been making some progress in action script and I have
a functional (although incomplete) game in the works. You can view
it here:
http://secure2.streamhoster.com/~rlu...orniverous.swf
The idea is it's a color game
red beats green, green beats, blue beats red. Think paper
scissor rock.
The idea is to change the entire circle into one color.
The graphics are place holders BTW.
I am using FlexBuilder 2.0 and Flash CS3, and I have come
across a problem not covered in either of my books.
I'd really appreciate any help that you guys can offer.
I have gotten this far on my own.
My #1 question (and I have many more) is:
How do you through Flash specify animation segments for a
MovieClip Symbol?
Notice how the red creatures occasionally open their mouths.
I want to have a walk, an attack, an absorb, and a bounce animation
on the same timeline and trigger the appropriate one depending on
which color the creature collides with. I do not know how to go
about this problem. I’ve just been trying to get the walk
animation to loop without playing the attack animation so far.
I've tried frame-labeling in flash, with scripts on the key
frames of a second layer that specify when to stop or repeat the
animation... No dice.
I have a symbol named RedShot in the library of a flash
project named "graphics"
In my timeline I have 2 animation segments, and I have a
second layer denoting two corresponding frames named "walk" and
"attack" from the properties menu.
On the final frames of the animations I have scripts.
Code:
gotoAndPlay("walk");
and
Code:
gotoAndPlay("attack");
respectively.
Im my library I have linkage options specified as such:
Class:RedShot
BaseClass:flash.display.MovieClip
export of actionscript#CHECKED
export on 1st frame#CHECKED
on the main stage of my flash project I have actionscript for
2 functions:
Code:
function walk(){
red_shot.gotoAndPlay("walk");
function attack(){
red_shot.gotoAndPlay("attack");
I export the project and the opened window has the "walk"
animation looping properly.
In my FlexBuilder project I embed the symbol
Code:
//Inside class global variables:
[Embed(source="../graphics.swf", symbol="RedShot")]
public var RedShot:Class;
private var _shot:MovieClip;
Code:
//and in my buildShot function:
_shot = new RedShot();
addChild(_shot);
When I build the project the characters appear, and they
animate. The only trouble is that there are no breaks in the
animation. The animation loops right through the frames where I
have specified that the animation should "gotoAndPlay" from a
different part.
What's weirder is that I can call
Code:
"gotoAndPlay("attack");"
without an error and it will go to and play from that point.
The only trouble is that it will begin to loop the entire animation
again without stopping at the gotoAndPlay events stored in the
frames of the timeline.
It seems like all embedded actions are ignored, add I can't
think of another way to controll the animation.
Any thoughts?

After hours of searching the internet I finally got this
blasted question figured out.
How to you export a symbol from Flash for use in a Flex
Builder project without destroying actionscript stored within the
frames of the Symbol's timeline?
That's a long winded way of saying: "In FlexBuilder, how do
you control MovieClips from Flash". I'm trying to make games, and
this was a particularly important question for me :).
Here's how:
1) You need a hotfix from Adobe.
[HTML]http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401493&sliceId=2[/HTML]
This allows Flash CS3 to export a SWC file.
2)You have to set the linkage properties for your various
symbols in the flash library panel.
a)right click on symbol in library panel
b)choose "linkage"
c)"Class:" = (pick a name)
d)"Base class:" = flash.display.MovieClip;
e)"Export for ActionScript" = CHECKED
f)"Export in first frame"=CEHCKED
3)If you want to have multiple segmented animations as I
certainly did you'll want to create frames and actionscripts within
the symbols timeline to define where these animations are.
a) in the symbol's timeline make a second layer. We'll name
that layer "labels" for the sake of not having this get too
confusing.
b) on that layer create a new frame for each of the animation
segments that you'd like to define and stretch them to the length
of the corresponding animations.(I'm assuming that you have a
keyframe animation on the 1st layer... otherwise what's the point
of all this :P?)
c)in the properties panel name the frames in the "labels"
layer accordingly ie. "walk" "run" shoot" etc.
d)Define whether the various animations play once or loop by
adding a script to the last frame of the animation. If you want the
animation to loop add
[CODE]gotoAndPlay("name-of-the-animation");[/CODE]
if you want the animation to play once and stop add
[CODE]stop();[/CODE]
if you want the animation to play once and then return to a
different animation add
[CODE]gotoAndPlay("name-of-a-different-animation");[/CODE]
4) now you can export the symbols to an SWC file. Note: you
do not get this option unless you have installed the hotfix.
[HTML]http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401493&sliceId=2[/HTML] .
a)rightclick on a symbol in the library panel
b)choose "exportSWCfile..."
c)export the file to a logical place such as the root of your
FlexBuilder project.
5) Now you have to tell flexbuilder about the new SWC file.
Note: Once this file is added to the FlexBuilder library you can
instantiate classes from it as though they were included using the
"include" function.
a)Right clicking on the root of the project in the Navigator
view.
b)going to properties.
c)Going to library path. (2nd tab)
d)and pressing the "Add SWC" button
Now you're done and you can instantiate any of the symbols
from your library while preserving any actions from your symbols
timeline just as though you had imported it as a class from a
typical library.
Sweet huh?
Thanks to the countless people and internet resources I found
on the subject. Hopefully it will be easier for anyone who finds
this post.
Here's an adobe video which covers the basic process.

Missing fields in the Cube.

SDN Community,
We have a 3 layered data warehousing model. The first is the write - optimized DSO and then the standard DSO and then the Infocubes. There are light/very light tranformations in between the layers.
There was data already in the write- optimized DSO. I loaded the same into standard DSO and then to the Infocube. The loads ran successfully and I can see the status of the DTPs as green.
Problem - One of the fields is not getting populated in the standard DSO as well as in the Infocube.
there is data in the 0COSTCENTER field in the 1st layer but no data in this field in 2nd(standard DSO) and the 3rd layer (infocube). The transformation is ' Direct Assignment' .
Does any body has any idea why this field is not getting populated.
0COSTCENTER is one of the key fields in the standard DSO. also its compunded with 0CO_AREA which is also a key field. We have three controlling areas. 0COSTCENTER data is coming in for 2 of those but not for the 3rd one. Do you think there is some problem with structure of the standard DSO (key fields).
Kindly help.

Hi,
My understanding is that one out of 3 possible entires for 0COSTCENTER field are not getting populated in the standard DSO, then that doesn't seem to be a problem with the DSO.
If this is resolved I am curious to know the root cause.

Write optimized dso - Stand DSO loading by Delta Req by req is not working

Hi All,
We have a data flow which has 1st layer having write optimized dso and then we are loading data to Standard DSO.
We are using Delta DTP to load the data with the option "Get All New Data Request By Request", but it is not working.
Suppose if i have 2 requests which are need to update to Standard Dso from Write Optimized Dso, it is updating in single request. We are on SAP BW 701 patch level is 005.
Please suggest me ....

Hi Prasanna,
For reasons of downward compatibility, the system behaves differently for DTPs that were created before "SAP NetWeaver 7.0 Support Package Stack 13"
DTPs for which the indicator is set only get the first new request, even if there is more than one new source request at the time of processing. This restricts the way in which these DTPs can be used in process chains, because requests accumulate in the source and the target may not contain the current data. The Retrieve Until No More New Data indicator is therefore displayed for these DTPs.
I Suggest you to set this indicator and activate the DTP.
If you set the Retrieve Until No More New Data indicator and then activate the DTP, once it completes processing, a DTP request checks whether there are any further requests in the source. If the source contains more requests, a new DTP request is automatically generated and processed. Once the DTP is activated, the indicator is no longer visible in DTP maintenance.
This applies when the DTP is started by a process chain and also when you start the DTP directly from DTP maintenance.
The indicator is set by default for new DTPs that get data request by request.
If you do not select the indicator, the label for the Get All New Data Request By Request indicator changes to Get One Request Only. Once the DTP is activated, only this indicator is displayed in DTP maintenance.
Regards,
Sudheer.

How to get hierarchy of a handling unit in delivery

Hi All,
We have a requirement of displaying in the form output highest level handling unit details(measurements length width and all).
After that we want to display lower level handling units materials that has been packed.In the transaction Vl03n I can find this by just double clicking the parent Handling unit.
To make simple how to get the hierarchy of handling units?
If I know handling unit(say HU1) how to find there are some handling units(may be HU2,HU3) included in this handling unit HU1.
I refered to the tables VEKP and VEPO it does not help me in this regard.Please suggest some body some idea on this.
Regards
Mahesh

Hi,
Have you look into field VEKP-UEVEL (Higher-Level Handling Unit)
RF_SW_VEKP_READ Select from table VEKP - 1st layer
VEKP_READ Select from table VEKP - 2nd layer
Kind Regards

Crystal Report 2008 Area Chart Data Label Problem

Stacked Area Chart (Layer Cake) Issues:
We would like to use a Crystal Report (2008) Stacked Area Layer Cake chart to show the workload RPD's (Sum of Resources Per Day = Y value axis) and Data_Date of the study (M,Month of study date = X value axis, using fiscal year type cycle Oct - Sept).
Each Stacked Area represents the workload RPD's for a single project, or group of projects.
When showing labels or series information the chart becomes overloaded and not visible to read because there is over 400 data points.
Is there a way to break this dataset down so that values and/or labels are visible, using the crystal report options available? To suppress multiple layers and show a single label per layer?
We tried using the Color Highlight to group and display them by group and condition. The labels and series data points are still over crowded.
We also need to overlay the chart with the Average FC Totals from an additional Crosstab report. Is there a way to overlay this over the 1st layer of the report?

BG covers 1st layer?
