Animated Gif's - Applying Clone Stamp to all layers

I have some animated gif's and I want to clone a
section of all layers that compose it. I have PS2 and PS4. PS2 allows me to open and sample all layers of the GIF but wont let me apply the clone to more than one layer at a time, PS4 wont let me open anymore than the first layer. Is there a solution for this. If not is there anything in Image Ready or Fireworks that will?

Window --> Animation, frame mode. Select all frames and while selected, do the cloning or whatever.

How to make the TARGET of clone stamp 2 simultaneous layers?

Does anyone know how to make the TARGET of the clone stamp, multiple simultaneous layers? Or maybe more accurately, how to clone stamp the top layer and have the layer underneath doing the exact same cloning simultaneously. Or maybe a workaround? I've tried linking the layers, and multiple layer selection with no joy.
Here is what I'm trying to do. I'm duplicating a layer, then applying LucisArt to one of the layers to greatly exaggerate local contrast. Though I'm not using LucisArt as the final, I want to use it to assist in smoothing blotchy skies, banding, and finding hidden camera sensor dust spots.
I want to clone stamp on the LucisArt layer so I can watch my progress, but also have the underlying layer doing the exact clone stamping at the same time. Thanks ... Aaron

Thanks everyone.
Dennis, You are correct. I know how to selectively apply the LucisArt filter, that's not what I'm looking for. I want my end result to have NO LucisArt effect at all. I'm trying to use the LucisArt layer to drastically exaggerate flaws such as camera sensor dust, AND I want to correct these flaws on the LucisArt layer where they are obvious. The LucisArt layer is only for reference. But the trick is to get CS3 to do to the non LucisArt layer, exactly what I did to the LucisArt layer.
So imagine I have this otherwise nice photo, but the photographer (this happened) had an amazingly dirty sensor. Half of the dust spots I can hardly see, but the client wants it super clean. So I duplicate the layer so I have two exactly the same. I then apply a strong LucisArt filter the top layer which reveals all the spots including many I couldn't see on the original layer. I'd like to fix all these spots with the clone stamp tool on the LucisArt layer where I can see them easily, then toss that layer. The original below would have all those spots fixed, but sampled from it's own layer and stamped to it's own layer.
As it is, I can click the LucisArt layer on, place my finger on the spot, then turn that layer off and hopefully see the spot and remove it from the layer underneath. Very tedious indeed.

Photos fail to print after editing with clone stamp tool and layers

After editing using the clone stamp tool and using layers the photos fail to print. I even tried a simple crop edit and the photo failed to print.
Photos print without editing.

Im working on a Mac OX 10.9.4 and Photoshop Elements 12 for Mac
I tried printing from Organizer and editor and I have the image saved on my desktop
I don't receive an error when I try to print. The message usually reads: Printing, 2% complete or 13% complete.
I have left it sit overnight but it never produced a photo.
The printer is new: HP Envy 5400 and I have no problem printing photos from I Photo.

Is it possible to perform Clone Stamping on two layers simultaneously?

Hi,
I have two layers, one is a colour stone texture, another is a black and white heightmap of the same image.
I want to repair a few areas, but it's essential that the two layers stay in sync, i.e. whatever cloning is done to the colour layer must be the same on the heightmap layer.
Neither layer contains any transparency.
If not is there any other way I can achieve the same end result?
Thanks
Steve

I don’t think this is easily achieved as Clone Stamping does not record as an Action.
One rather clumsy work-around would be to work with Smart Objects –
• convert one Layer to a SO
• copy, move and mask that to cover a blemish
• repeat as necessary
Then
• duplicate the file and
• replace the SO’s content with the other Layer and update
This would be reasonable only with a very small number of corrections and/or smallish files, though.

Apply adjustment to affect all layers when xport layers to files

Hi.
Have a set of sequence images opened with Bridge and placed in photoshop as individual layers. I´ve croped the image and
applyed som adjusments eg. curves etc. Now i want to save the layers as files from the file-scripts having the layer adjustments affecting
my layers before saving.
/Tedski

Well, you don’t need it anymore, but I still gave a Script that saves the pixel-layers as separate files with the Adjustment Layers flattened in a try; only for psd, though, so no format-selection.
If you want to give it a try …
// create psd-copies of all pixel-layers with adjustment layers applied to them;
// thanks to xbytor for the regexp;
// 2010, use at your own risk;
#target photoshop

var thedoc = app.activeDocument;
var docName = thedoc.name;
var basename = docName.match(/(.*)\.[^\.]+$/)[1];

catch (e) {var docPath = "~/Desktop"};
// duplicate;
var myDocument = thedoc.duplicate ("thecopy", false);
var theLayers = hideAndCollectPixelLayers(myDocument);
var theArtLayers = new Array

Clone stamp tool and image processing

Hello, I am not able for some reason to apply clone stamp tool to multiple pictures at a time using image processing, I just get the first picture saved with the effect and the rest as they were. Could someone help me out with this? I have around 200 pictures and I need to remove damage from all of them quickly. Or is it not possible? Thank you!

After that time ten years Adobe added a new feature that enable you to record tools use. However the feature was not well designed recorded various amount of data depending on machine. Has some restrictions also. The feature is not compatible with everything as I wrote Adobe Disable this feature when its Plug-in Scriptlistener is installed. I never found a good use for the feature. Note: my option is grayed out because I install Scriprlistener.

Animated gif in safari

How do I download an animated gif in Safari 7.0? All I get is the first frame of the animation.

I also noticed this today, and it seems that for some reason the frame rate of animated GIFs is limited to 10 frames per second, or a minimum delay of 100msec per frame. This animation should loop every second: http://www.dr-lex.be/tmp/Rotation1Sec.gif
In Firefox it behaves correctly, but if you time it in Safari, you'll see that it takes 5 seconds per loop, because it has 50 frames.
By the way, QuickTime Player can also play GIF animations and it plays them at the correct speed.
It appears this bug is not in Safari itself, but somewhere deeper in some framework. The bug ID is 5815212.

Animated gif is only output as a grey box

Hi,
I'm using CS4 and am trying to make an animated GIF. I've got it all set up and when I play it in Photoshop everything is fine. I then go to File > Save for web and then choose GIF in the dialog box and leave all other boxes alone. In the Optimized window my images are missing and only a grey box is shown. When I hit Save and then open the resulting GIF in a browser, all I get is that grey box and not the animation with my 8 frames. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Here you go. Thought I had pasted the screenshot to my OP.

Toolkit.createCustomCursor(...) blocks when provided with an animated GIF

Hi everyone:
Here is a code snippet from an application of mine:
// Loading an image: works fine. duke.gif is an animated Duke icon found in the source code version of J2SDK 1.3.1.
ImageIcon imageIcon = new ImageIcon("duke.gif");
// Conversion into an image: works fine too. I checked its proper termination with a MediaTracker, which I removed after determining that getImage() does not block at all.
Image image = imageIcon.getImage();
// This method blocks forever!
Cursor myCursor = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit.createCustomCursor(image, new Point(0, 0), "Duke");After testing with a few other GIF images, I could determine that this blocking problem seems to occur only with animated GIF images. Are animated GIFs supported as cursor images at all? Also, what is the best method to use the Toolkit.getBestCursorSize(...) to properly size the loaded image for use as a cursor icon?
Thanks in advance for helping...
Jean-Fran�ois Morin

I think the problem may be that your using an animated gif. If you read the doc on the Curson class it says that Cursor is a bitmap representation of the mouse cursor. Bitmaps do not generally support animation. Also it is likely the createCustomCursor method is waiting for a call to ImageConsumer.imageComplete(). I am not sure, but if the GIF animation loops this function may never get called. This could cause your hangup. I would suggest trying a non-animated GIFf produced from the same program to ensure that your paint program is producing compliant GIFs. If that works I would assume the problem is that Cursor does not support animation at this time. I could be wrong about that, but there is nothing in the documentation to indate that it would.

Attaching hyperlink to animated gifs

Has anyone been successful with attaching a hyperlink to an animated gif? I'm new to all this and I'm not even sure if this is possible (but it seems reasonable to me). I can drag and drop the animated gif into iWeb, but then the option to make it a hyperlink is not available.

I'm having the same problem. I've tried converting a standard animated gif into a .swf file via GraphicConverter and inserting the .swf into iWeb. But that doesn't work. Also, iWeb adds the QT controller to the bottom of the image, which I don't want to see. Does anybody know how to turn that off too?
Thanks.

Clone stamp tool won't apply

Hello all,
I just moved to CC and I'm having trouble applying the clone stamp tool.
So, I create a duplicate unlocked layer and select my area to clone from using ALT.
When I hover over the area to place the clone it previews what it'll look like, but when I click the mouse it won't apply.
Any ideas folks? I'm on a MacPro late 2013 3.7 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon E5.
Many thanks,
Jonny Walton

Selection active, Opacity too low, Flow too low, Blend Mode, …?
Have you reset the Tool yet?

An animated gif that plays on all devices

Hello again on gifs...
I am in PS CS4 on XP.
I created an animated gif. I was wondering if there was some way to make it work on all devices. Phones, MP3 players, computers (both mac & pc)...etc..
It looks great on my computer at work and at home, but not on my iPod. It does not play or show on my iPod. My boss checked on her computer said you have to click on the image for it to play (but I don't have to do that). It did not work on her BlackBerry either.
Just wondering if there is someway out there that the gif can work on all devices because it will be emailed out to a few people.
I see there is a device central within the program, but not sure about that. There seems to be a lot of types there, but I don't see BlackBerry? I'll check again. In the meantime, I thought I'd write this up to see if there was an answer.
Thank you.

It will not on my iPod....
Which one? Nano never has displayed GIFs, only JPEGs. Touch will display GIFs only in Safari and Mail and whtever custom apps you may have that use GIFs. That would be very much the same on iPad and iPhone, though those also can display PNGs outside of the browser. Similarly, Android devices can display JPEG, PNG and SVG natively, but GIFs are disabled/ forbidden on most of them and may only dispaly in the browser app. Dunno much about Symbian/ Meego/ Blackberry, but I would think that pretty much the same rules apply - said stuff being disabled to conserve battery power, for security reasons or not even dynamically loaded because of ad blocking...

Animated GIF Doesn't Work At All

I am a Web developer. My client has provided us with an animated GIF image for their landing page. This GIF runs fine on every browser except Safari. On Safari, the GIF never animates; it just stays on the opening frame and looks stupid.
This happens on all Macs running OS X and Safari 2.x as well as Beta 3.
I search here and on the Internet and find nobody reporting this issue, but it sure feels like a Safari-specific problem.

Aha! Nice catch. I saw that extension anomaly, too, Kirk, but since the page code doesn't allow one to easily view what's going on behind the scenes, I wondered if the JPEG might be behind or in front of the actual animated GIF and didn't look further. But downloading the "JPEG" and loading it in Safari 3 shows that it is, indeed, the animated GIF... with the incorrect extension.
Yes, I would think being labeled a JPEG is the problem. Safari 2 is probably being stubborn and assuming that since it is supposed to be a JPEG, it can't animate.
(A page with so little actual HTML or text has to be terribly inaccessible and is probably a problem in terms of search engine optimization as well. Just guesses since I don't work in SEO myself, but worth considering.)

Animated GIF won't animate or not even show at all

I have been using animated GIF with no problem so far but now with iWeb 08 sometimes it works with certain GIFs documents or sometimes won't with other GIFs documents. Why ? And what can I do about this ? What is the solution ?

Well Bababooey if you're comparing yourself to a Apple Genius Bar then you should already know my answer, your snarky remark get a snarky reply. Why would I go to a salesperson to fix my computer problem when I can go directly go to the source itself. I used to sell Apple computers over 8 years ago and was apple certified before the Genius bar existed. If I am to go about fixing an issue I can't fix on my own I will go to the source itself meaning Apple's programmers and developers - being UI UX Developer myself I know they should have QA'd all platforms and troubleshooted any arising issues.
This was also the first time in the 20 years I've been using a Mac that I even attempted to go on this forum which i thought would put me in connection with a certified Apple representative. This turned out to be a complete waste of time just being a public forum with no Apple employee involved. I was hoping to find a quick fix but in turn I was only frustrated with stupid responses such as yours that were in no way an answer to my original question.
BTW I fixed the issue on my own and without your help or Apples help. I'm glad if all forums point here regarding this issue because I now have the answer. The answer I was looking for from someone earlier was as simple as this {Download Maverick and reinstall the platform - it will take an hour to do but afterward 10.9.2 was installed and my computer is now able to shutdown and restart without having to do a hard boot.} No more software update bar at top and no problems with my drive which I told both you and Grant - I know my computer better than you and I've probably been using them longer than you.
So again Babowa you were so wrong...... and I am right.
Again anyone having the same problem, I suggest reinstalling Maverick and you'll be suprised 10.9.2 will work fine.

Animated Gif - States All Affected At Once

I normally use Fireworks to make animated gifs, but recently (not sure what happened) all of my states have decided to combine or group together and I can no longer edit each state individually. If I move anything (symbols, layers, etc), then all states are affected by it. I noticed that when I have anything selected in one state, then all of the circles to the right of the delay time in the state menu are filled in at once. I'm sure this is a simple fix, but I can't seem to figure it out. Help?

I should add the following.
To try again I create a new document and simply import the animated gif. It's 38 states long. Before adding any other elements I enable "Show all states" and move the element downwards on the page. It moves. No problem. The loop plays in the new position.
But, I don't really know where I want to position the gif until I add the other elements.
So I disable "show all states", select State 1, select Layer 1 in Layers, and add the text and a png to layer 1. As expected, these additions appear only on state 1.
I then enable "Show all states" ("multi-state editing is still enabled"), select the layer for the animated gif, and again click on the animated gif and move it. This time I see the ghost image of a later frame below and behind it. When I play the loop the new position occurs only on frame 1 - otherwise, it's in the lower position in all other states.
Is this is a bug in Fireworks CS6? I can move an object "globally" when no other objects are on the page but once I add some to state 1, moving an object in all states at once doesn't work.
During one iterration of this test the move occured in all frames but number 24! (what!?) Seriously, basically the same steps, I don't recall ever even going to state 24. But when I played the animation everything was in proper position except for 24.
