Image dimensions problem

Hi all,
All I really want for Christmas is a fix for this problem (in reality, a small issue, but one that is making me seriously consider returning to the dark side...)
Because I use several different systems, all my files are stored on NAS drives (and backed up onto other NAS drives). My primary device is a LaCie 1Tb 2big Drive running RAID1. I've noticed a problem though; the finder window doesn't return image dimensions for these files - or files stored on the backup NAS drive or even the media drive (also another NAS drive). If I copy them to the local drive, immediately I see image dimensions. My default View is by Columns, but any view profile fails to show image dimensions. I've also checked that none of the network drives are within Spotlight's privacy area, but they are not.
I've just spent 30minutes on the phone to Apple Care and they can't come up with a solution, so I'm opening it up to the wider community. If it needs 3rd party software to make this work, that's fine! I'm getting desperate now as it's slowing my productivity right down. I'm also struggling to understand how even Win XP can manage this just fine, but OS X trips up?
Anyone?
Cheers,
andy

I forgot to mention one other problem
The layout that I sketched up is the one I am going for. So a tip on how to get the text and the headings to flow around the image like shown in the picture would be greatly appreciated. Is it recommended to use tables inside div tags or spry for that matter?
Thanks a million.

Finder doesn't show image dimensions

Hi!
I have a problem with image dimensions in Finder. Finder doesn't show image dimension info in preview column and Get Info window. But when I open in Preview app I can see dimensions in Get Info window. How to solve this problem. If I want to sort images by dimension, I can't do that. Because Finder doesn't know image dimensions. You can see images below.

That's because the Finder is a file manager and works from file metadata. The data you're seeking is about the file contents. You need to use a Photo Manager or Browser.
There is someone who can sort images by dimensions and see dimensions in list view. Also if Finder will not show image dimensions, why give me "Dimensions" and "Resolution" option to select in list view.

Launch a Finder window. Press command+J, and set Show Item Info. Now the image dimensions will show below each image icon. If it is a movie, then the duration of the movie is shown.
I have done this. But doesn't show information.

Image Dimensions not showing

This MAY be a Photoshop CS3 issue, so forgive me if it is, but I can no longer see image dimensions in the (Leopard) finder. The problem seems to have started when I upgraded to Photoshop CS3, but I upgraded to Leopard just a few days prior to the CS3 upgrade. If I look at images that were already on my hard drive before Leopard, the dimensions appear. Any new images I save via Photoshop no longer have dimensions appearing in the finder preview area.
Edit: This definitely appears to be a Leopard issue. It appears that ALL new images, no matter which program saved it, do not have dimensions attached. I opened a jpeg with Preview and saved it as both a jpeg and a png, and no dimensions appeared.

I was doing a lot of graphics stuff the other day, for many hours, and noticed that the things I had just saved were not showing the pixel dimensions in the Finder. For me simply selecting the image in the Finder caused the dimensions to appear. You might also try a restart, then open a folder with the new images and see if the dimensions are now present. Also had a bizarre result in Cover Flow where several newly created images all displayed as being exactly the same (all looked like the first image created). In that case a force restart of the Finder brought things back to sanity.

My iMac 27" Late 2012 has Image Persistence Problem

I'm wondering what to do about an annoying image persistence problem on my 27" late 2012 iMac. I got the iMac just a few days ago. Monday actually, so 4 days ago.
It's the 3.4GHz i7, 8GB, NVIDIA 680MX 1TB fusion drive model.
Overall it has become the love of my life, but the image persistence thing is getting harder to ignore. This happens after only a few minutes of use. If I follow Apple's instruction on dealing with LCD image persistence, I can make it go away for a while, but it comes back very quickly.
It is extremely noticeable on a plan dark background. It looks as thought he screen has been left on for a very long time with the same windows open, but it occurrs in less than 5 minutes of use with nothing more intense than a bit of web surfing.
I've read that this is happening a great deal on these new iMacs, particularly teh 27" machines.
While the problem seems to be known to those of us afflicted I don't know if Apple has acknowledged an issue or not.
Here is a sample of the complaints: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1509571
I can make the ghost image vanish by bringing up an all white scree for a minute or so or using LCD Scrub.
I'm wondering if anyone else has foun a solution other than asking for a replacement computer, which Apple seems to be granting on this issue?

If you cannot resolve the issue yourself, then return the computer for a replacement. You may do this freely within 14 days from date of purchase, so don't delay.

Is there a Preserve Image Dimension when Relinking Setting in Framemaker 9?

Hi,
I am using Framemaker 9 (structured Frame) and would like to know if there is a setting (similar to InDesign) that preserves image dimensions when relinking. In InDesign, you can turn this setting off so that the updated linked graphic will not scale or move in the document. Does Framemaker have a similar setting? We use Illustrator CS3 to create graphics. These graphics are then saved to Adobe Acrobat X Pro PDF files. I Import by Reference the PDF file using the Grahic element in Structured Framemaker. If I make any changes to the graphic file in Illustrator, the graphic that was imported into the Framemaker document shifts inside the anchored frame and then I have to recenter all the updated graphics in Framemaker. Is there a setting in Framemaker that will allow me to update a graphic file in Illustrator without having to recenter it in Framemaker?
I currently have the following File Handling & Clipboard options selected in Illustrator:
Copy AS:
-PDF
-AICB (no transparency suuport)
-Preserve Appearance and OverPrints
But, these settings do not seem to help much for the imported graphic files in Framemaker.
I appreciate any information you can provide.
Thank you for your help.

*** haven't checked, because I don't have any pre-9.0 files easily available *** ... but from what I remember, if you're really just viewing the files in 9.0 you should need to save them explicitly back to an earlier version. FM may mark the files as "changed" when it opens them, but that's because it checks things like datestamps and cross-references. If you do not, yourself, explicitly change any content in the file you have opened, you don't need to save the changes; just close the file unsaved. Check my supposition with a couple of files before relying on it! And other people will be able to give you a more detailed explanation of why file you haven't touched yourself still show up as "changed".

Image dimension limitations in Photoshop Elements?

I'm trying to find out what the maximum image dimensions are for Photoshop Elements 8.0
I know Photoshop CS increased the previous limit of 30,000x30,000 to 300,000x300,000.
According to this page, PSE 5 and 6 were limited to 30k:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402760.html
Yet according to this page, PSE 5 can reportedly handle 300k:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/333/333456.html
I'd like to upgrade from Elements v4 to v8, but one thing I need to ensure is that it can handle >30000px images, otherwise I'll have to go for CS5...
Can anyone give me a definitive answer, please?

When you installed the plugin(s), the installer should have created a folder in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Image Trends Inc\Hemi 1.0
Go to the Hemi 1.0 folder and copy the three plugins that don't say x64 and paste them into the pse 11 editor plugins folder
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 11\Plug-Ins

Problem: codebase, jar and image reloading problem please help!

Hi Java Gurus,
I have written an applet that extends JApplet for viewing webcam. In order to reduce the download time I put my classes into a doorcam.jar file. The following is my <applet> tag in my html file.
<applet code="CameraApplet.class"
archive="doorcam.jar"
codebase = "webcam/classes"
width="375" height="475">
<param name="imagePath" value="http://judge/webcam/images">
<param name="webCamImage" value="door.jpg">
<param name="COMPort" value="COM2">
<param name="frameRate" value="10"> 
<param name="host" value="judge">
</applet>
The fist problem is that my class file does not get loaded from the jar file if i provide the "codebase" attribute as above. Instead the browser load every single class file from the webserver. This has some problem too. Coz the browser sometimes just thorough NullPointerException or ClassNotFoundException. After much of debugging I found out that the problem is the IE browser which seldom fails to load classes or image file from the server. If i referesh the browser the applet and all its classes loaded successfully and runs smoothly. This behaviour never occurs when running with "appletviewer".
I wanted all my classes to be loaded from my jar file. After much of trial and error I found out that if i remove "codebase" attribute the browser loads the classes from my jar file and applet loads very fast. This is where the second problem comes in. The browser does not reload my webcam image file so that the webcam become alive with live images, like before.
If I run on "appletviewer" everything works fine my web cam is displayed properly. But in IE browser the image does not get reloaded when I refresh my image to give live to my webcam display. The refresh method is given below.
private void refresh(final URL url) {
Image webCamImage =getImage(url);
webCamImage.flush(); // flush out the previous image
webCamImage = getImage(url); // get a new image
webCamImageIcon.setImage(webCamImage); webCamImageIcon.paintIcon(webCamLabel, webCamLabel.getGraphics(), 15, 15);
When I add the "codebase" attribute back, the image gets reloaded for every refresh() and everything works fine. But the classes are also loaded from the server. And occasionally also suffers Class loading and image loading problem. As I presented earlier, when I do refreshing in the browser everything gets loaded and the applet function correctly with web cam displaying very well.
The problem is so strange that I could not find any way to solve it.
It would be a great help to me if somebody provide me some work around to the problem.
I tested on Windows 2000, Windows XP, IE 5.5, IE 6 with J2SDK 1.4.0.
Thank you all very much in advance.
best regards,
Judge

Thank you so much for the suggestions. I did tried the way u suggested. The problem still the same.
I think its the problem between IE browser and Java Plug-in.
I which SUN would find these incompatibilities and solve these problems.
I even tried using java SDK and plug-in 1.4.1 it even worst. It can't even load an applet. And it does not show any loading messages nor any error messages. It just show a cross sign on the upper left coner.
I would be so glad, if Sun would try to eliminate the inconsistancies such as caching, loading, initializing etc between browser and its Java plug-In. For example, applets behave well in appletviewer and behave unpredictably in browser environment.
I have seen so many people in the forums with all sorts of problems because of this.
Right now I m desperately looking for work around to my problem.
If somebody would provide me with the solution to my problem it would be a great help to me.
thank you all so much.
best regards,

Choose Preserve Image Dimensions When Relinking

Is there a way to change the preference "Choose Preserve Image Dimensions When Relinking" from scripting? This setting is accessible in the user interface ( in the Edit menu / Preferences / File Handling tab ).
Andreas

I am not sure but try:
app.imagePreferences.preserveBounds = true;
// If true, preserve image bounds when relinking.

SSRS indicator image display problem!!

Hello ALL;
I am having problem with displaying indicator image in DEV report manager. but same rdl works in QA environment. Both server has SP1 installed. Any Idea? Appreciate for your help. Thanks,

Hi Techchi,
Based on the limited information, I cannot figure it out for this issue. As per my understanding, I think this issue can be caused by the browser that run the report manager. If you use IE explorer to render the report, I suggest that you can try to run
it in compatibility mode. If you are using another browser, I recommend that you should use IE explorer to render the report to check the issue again.
If this issue still exists, in order to solve the problem more efficiently, I need to clarify some information.
Are all reports with indicator image cannot render well in DEV report manager? Or just this one report?
What is the phenomenon about the indicator image display problem? Could you please post a screenshot about this?
It is benefit for us to do further analysis. Thank you for your understanding.
Thanks,

Having a image alignment problem using clearbox

Hi,
I'm having an image alignment problem. I cannot figure it out. I'm using the clearbox - lightbox dreamweaver widget. Using Dreamweaver CS6.
Actual page located here. Any help would be appreciated.
http://dirtysouthink.com/gallery/dustin2.html

This has very little to do with Dreamweaver. DW is merely a tool to assist you in building a web site. It is purely a matter of styling (CSS).
When I look at the structure, I see
BODY-CONTENT (width: 490px)
     GALLERY (width: 452px)
          CONTAINER (width: 500px)
               ITEM (width: 150px)
From this I can deduce that:
GALLERY will fit inside BODY-CONTENT
CONTAINER will NOT fit inside GALLERY or BODY-CONTENT
ITEM will fit three times into CONTAINER
To start with, I would reduce the size of the CONTAINER so that it fits inside of its parent. Then I would adjust the width of the ITEM so that only two of them fit inside of the CONTAINER.

Column view in Finder does not display image dimensions

Image dimensions display a -- when browsing in column view. If I view info on the image it appears. If I move off the highlighted image file and go back it disappears again. I have looked into the spotlight solution and do not have any folders listed under Privacy. I am running 10.7.4 and all updates are current.

Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences folder and trash this file:
com.apple.finder.plist
Then, restart, or log out and in again.
(You may have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.)

How to solve the image display problem in the iTunes Store

Hi guys!
I just want to give a work-around for all of you having the image display problem in the iTunes Store. In my case only the square images in the slider sections won't load:
I had this in my last W7-installation and got it again in W8 after the first few weeks.
There are a lot of reports about this problem out there and adhoc solutions like 'clear the cache' or 'reinstall and drink ice tea' that do not work. It is obviously a file request error. It is all about finding out which server addresses get blocked by your computer.
Solution: Go to your firewall and your Anti-virus-program. There must be a whitelist option. In Kaspersky, check the web-options, the banner-options and the firewall-options, because the all have whitelists. The following addresses have to be whitelisted:
*.apple
*.mzstatic.apple.com.akadns.net
*.mzstatic.com.edgesuite.net
*.da1.akamai.net
*.itunes.apple.com
se.itunes.apple.com
upp.itunes.apple.com
ax.init.itunes.apple.com
xp.apple.com
*.mzstatic.com
client-api.itunes.apple.com
www.apple.com.edgekey.net
www.isg-apple.com.akadns.net
Press Ctrl + R in the iTunes Shop then and browse throught the music sections. All images should be displayed correctly now.
If not, there might be more Apple servers involved in your case. You can find them by running a DNS sniffing tool like the DNS query sniffer by Nirsoft or Wireshark.

Phone restarting randomly could be loose battery. Tighten by putting a small strip of electrical tape on the back edge.

Image dimension in cm or picca or inches

is it possible to get image dimension in cm or picca or inches other than pixels. I tried with Imagero but it gives only in pixels. Is there any package to get in cm or picca?
Thanks,
Thanuja.

ok i got ur point.
so formula is
inches=pixels/dpismall clarification. I got the pixel value of the image. Is it possible to get the dpi of an image as well? If so then using the above formula i can
easily find out the dimension in inch right.
am i clear or going wrong somewhere? for the first time iam dealing with this images,dpi,inches and pixel sort of thing. Only now i understood what dpi is.
and one small clarification
have visited ur site http://balusc.xs4all.nl/srv/dev-jep-fil.html . Fileservlet really helped me. but when i navigate other links in ur site like java tutorial the content is not in english. its something like the below
In deze Nederlandstalige Java tutorial wordt uitgelegd hoe het object geori�nteerde programmeertaal Java in elkaar steekt. Java is een krachtige platform-onafhankelijke taal dat op praktisch alle gebieden toegepast kan worden. Van mobiele telefoons (Java Micro Edition, Java ME), via computerprogramma's (Java Standard Edition, Java SE) tot grote dynamische webapplicaties (Java Enterprise Edition, Java EE).
I dont know which language it is? could not understand? should i download any font or is it in any other language. u not from India? name sounds like an south indian.
Thanks

Finder - Image Dimensions column

Hi I have thousands of files I am organizing and want the image dimensions in column view. You can do this on windows 95 how come not Mac OS X (which I love)!??
Can somebody tell me how to do this - it would be a lot of help!
Thanks

Alas you cannot have it ALL ways...
Column view is basically a cleaner version of List view - without any of the file information visible at a glance. If you click any item shown in column view - the preview to the right should show the dimensions at the bottom, along with other data.
If you want to see all of the dimensions at a glance, you can set them in Icon View. I have the View Options for all of my folders that are full of images (which is the bulk of my folders, as I am a designer) set as below.
Double-click on the folder containing the images
Click on the Icon View thumbnail at the top of the finder window
Go to View / Show View Options
Select "Always open in icon view"
Slide the "Icon size" all the way to the right (to 128 x 128)
Slide the "Grid spacing" all the way to the left (to keep them grouped close together)
Select "*_Show item info_*" (*this is what you are after*)
Select "Show icon preview" (if this is not selected)
Select an option in "Arrange by" (this will sort / arrange them after the changes)
Select "Use as defaults" at the bottom, if you want this to be the default settings for any folder that has been set to Icon View.
This setting shows me everything I need to see quickly, and allows me to bypass the Cover Flow view, which I love - but it is only useful on the odd occasion for two reasons:
1.) It doesn't play friendly with all of my image files, it usually looks horrible (BIG deal breaker!)
2.) If I am looking over a folder FULL of images, I can usually find what I am looking for quicker by using the overview that Icon View allows, rather than flipping though the images one at a time.
