Brush Hardness and Flow

I wish there was also an option to choose Hardness and Flow in the new HUD vertical movement - in other words I can set the size of the brush with my scrollwheel and custom button mapping, so I wish i could use hardness and flow (not opacity) with the new HUD interface.
It also would be great if there was an option to map HUD directly to RMB, so there wouldn't be a need to hold CRTL+ALT. The more customization the better.

how do you access contextual menus?
With crtl+alt? What I'm saying is, there should be an option to switch that. HUD is a nice feautre and easily can replace the contextual brush menu.
HUD preferences doesn't support the flow.

RIGHT click to change brush size, hardness and roundness

use imac i7, lion 10.7.4.
It seems that, in CS6 photoshop, I could RIGHT CLICK, and a small panel would drop down at cursor location, allowing me to change size, hardness, and roundness of the brush.
I have recently updated to 13.0.1. The technique described above no longer works, but I can't be sure that this happened after the update.
I may, as often, have screwed up a prefence checkbox.
appreciate ANY help
thanks,
vince

I didn't sense any change in the brush sizing mechanics with the 13.0.1 update.
With the Brush Tool selected, right-clicking in an image pops this dialog up for me:
And with Alt held down, right-clicking gives me interactive control of Diameter and Hardness:

Unable to view Hard and Soft Returns

Brush Hardness in CS5

Seems we've lost the command, option, control ability to visually adjust brush hardness on the fly in PSCS5. Instead I get a seemingly useless color picker. Has this VERY USEFUL keyboard/mouse feature been reassigned or is it gone?
Regards,
kingdex

I really like the idea of an on-the-fly Color Picker... But I hope Adobe reevaluates how their new HUD (Heads Up Display) Color Picker works.
The way the current Color Picker works: click the foreground swatch once. Choose a color, hit return. Done.
The HUD Picker: To invoke hit control+option+command+mouse drag. Invoke it where you want it, because the HUD picker is locked where you bring it up. Don’t invoke it too near the edge in Standard Screen Mode or you won’t see it all. Don’t release the mouse button or else it disappears. Don’t try to sample a color outside of the Picker, it won’t let you. Move sample ring around the Saturation/Brightness field (it is locked to your cursor). Now press and hold the Spacebar to set the Sat/Brightness values and move cursor to the Hue slider. Release the spacebar and manipulate the Hue slider (those two steps feel really counter-intuitive). After adjusting the Hue, if you want to make additional Sat/Brightness changes depress spacebar and move back to Sat/Brightness field but make sure you are directly over the set sample ring when you release the spacebar or else it will jump to your cursor. When you have the color you want, release mouse button to leave HUD Picker and set it as your foreground color.
And did I mention no numeric color information?
A great idea which I hope will evolve to be useful in the next Photoshop.

Show Brush Hardness in Toolbar?

In CS5 one can change brush size and hardness with Alt + rt. click and move mouse. The brush size can be seen in the box, but the hardness has to be guessed at by judging the color size within the brush circle. With small brushes this is more difficult. Is there any way for the hardness level to show without opening the brush drop down box?
Would be ideal, at least for me, to have the hardness listed next to the brush size.

Good suggestion! Unfortunately, I know of no way to have it show up in the toolbar, but if you make the entire Brush panel visible (Window - Brush) you will, of course, have a full-time display showing all the parameters. It does require some precious screen real estate to keep that visible, though, and there's no "non-expanded view" for it.
To make matters worse, without OpenGL enabled the brush size/hardness gestures (Alt-right click & drag) still work, but there's no color overlay at all, only an outline, so one cannot even guess the hardness.

How do i add filter to just brush strokes and paint fill not pencil.

Sorry it is kind of hard to explain in the description.
What i want to know is if i can pretty much just select the brush strokes and paint fill on a layer and have the pencil lines left alone.
I want to filter, then blur the brush strokes and paint fill on the layer but keep the pencil lines sharp, i have been doing paint fill and brush stroked on a different layer than the pencil lines but this takes ages because i have to draw the picture out twice everytime using the brush strokes to go along the pencil lines so i can fill them in with color, if i could blur them on same layer without effecting pencil lines then i could just fill the pencil lines with paint bucket instead of redarwing the lines with brush tool if this makes sence.
Here is a picture to show what im trying to achieve
The pencil lines are on a different layer to brush strokes

if you convert to a movieclip (right click>convert to symbol>movieclip) whatever you want to filter, you can filter it independent of other objects.

Assign brush hardness Decrease/Increase to Shift functions (Or some alternative)

Hi. I am moving my shortcuts over the the left of the keyboard as much as possible. So the [ ] keys are becoming S and D. But I really liked hitting SHIFT+[ to change the brush hardness. It looks like I can't do Shift+S or Shift+D for this. Does anybody know of a workaround? Perhaps through a script or a hack of sorts?
I'm wondering how I could feather the hardness and size swiftly (like I did with the "[ ]" setup). I suppose I could assign the hardness to, say, X and C, but that seems a bit wasteful.
I'm open to different solutions to this problem.
Thanks!

It's a very long time since I used the keyboard for brush size and hardness, because it is so easy to Alt right click and drag. If I only want to adjust brush size, I use the express wheel on my tablet. You are very brave to undertake such a radical change of Photoshop keyboard shortcuts, but you should be able to do what you mention. Is your plan driven because you are left handed perhaps? If that is the case, then there's a good chance that there are alternative key maps out there you could use.
I guess you know you can save your new shortcuts to a custom workspace?

I want to know how to enable the links that are sent in an email, with each upgrade of Firefox it gets harder and harder to do so. What is the trick to this?

With each upgrade of Firefox, I have a harder and harder time, getting to the links provided in my emails. Some times I am able to trick the link into working, if I continue to to try every link in the email, but most of the time, I just have to give up. I know that I need to change something, maybe in the settings, but I don't know what.
Please help me. I am considering just going back to Internet Explorer.

This did not solve my problem. I can sometimes click on a link (word) provided in an email, that leads to a site, but it does not list the website address!! It works sometimes, providing me with a chance to enable links for this address or enable link (I think basically for just that one time).

Hard drive is running very hard and warm

I recently had a hard drive issue with my mac book pro and basically had to erase everything and then restore all my files from Carbonite. I have now restored all of my files and I think Carbonite is now rebacking those up, but in the mean time my hard drive is running very hard and causing my lap top to get very warm. Is this normal? Is it because of the back up/restore? Or is there something wrong with my fan or hard drive?

Install iStat pro (from the Internet) and open it. It will show you the internal temperatures of your MBP and the fan speeds. Also open Activity Monitor to compare the internal CPU activity with the iStat pro data. Post both for an evaluation.
Since you have suspicions regarding your HDD, make certain that you do have backups. You might open Disk Utility>First Aid and 'Verify Disk'.

Importing and flowing multiple text docs into InDesign CS3

I have multiple plain text files where each runs several pages long that I want to import into one document in ID CS3. I want to import them and have them flow in a single threaded text frame one after another over multiple pages. With a single multi-page text doc all I have to do is select Place and hold down the shift key and InDesign will add the necessary pages and flow the copy until the end of the doc. However, if I shift select the docs and try import them into a text frame by holding down the shift key, it will just flow the first doc in the group with no indication of overset text. I have tried placing multiple text docs holding down the shift and command key and that brings in all my docs on the first page but in separate text boxes with overset text for each doc. Is there a way to do this in InDesign or perhaps a plugin that can do this?
Thanks
Randy

I tried to find this. It was posted 4/21/08 by Peter Kahrel (I can tell, because I can see my side of the discussion in my Sent folder) in response to a post I made entitled "Multiple Files". Maybe I'm not searching the forum archives properly, or maybe this was during the time last year when Adobe was trying (and failing) to update the forums. In any case, I'm sure at this point that Peter posted this for public consumption, so I don't think he's going to mind if I post it again:

Copy and paste everything between the hyphen lines (not including the hyphen lines) into a text editor and save with a .js extension and put it in your scripts folder. Should be something like:
D:\Program Files\Adobe\InDesign CS3\Adobe InDesign CS3\Scripts\Scripts Panel
After alphabetizing your files and putting them in their own folder, copy the path and run the script. It will make a new folder and place all your files in one continuous story. I don't know how it will work with .txt files.
