Can photoshop automatically count similar shaped items in an image

I'm wanting to automatically count items of similar shape and color in an image . The items are the round ends of wooden dowels in a stack . Each dowel is 2 1/4 inches in diameter . There could be 1400 of these in a stack .it is very time consuming to count manually
Thanks

PS can't and, as far as i know, there's no plug in... but strangely enough i believe there is a website where you can post an image and it'll return the font or at least a close approximation... do a Google search and check...

  • Can you automatically delete anchor points when a new image is placed on top - so that it 'replaces'

    Hi all,
    I know that I can delete anchor points but I was wondering if there is a shortcut to do it on a larger scale.
    Can you automatically delete anchor points when a new image is placed on top - so that it 'replaces' the image, only on the parts obviously that you cover with the new one.
    Thank you all

    Hi,
    I'm using CS6, and I have a tree vector image, and I am trying to put names on top, but when I do this to keep it clean with no anchor points (as my other software cant read it with all the points in it) I have to manually delete each one but it deletes the whole path and I then end up with a tree, names on top, and a big gappy circle around the names.
    So really, I wanted to add the names on top, and have that delete all anchors underneath .
    Does this make sense? :S

  • How can I automate creation of various thumbnails of an image with different filenames?

    I load an image, SampleA.jpg.  I want to automate creation of different sized thumbnails, one that is 640x360 and called SampleA iStock.jpg, and one that is 360x203 and called SampleA Revostock.jpg.  I want these files to be stored in the same directory as the source image.
    To my knowledge actions cannot do this because they hardwire the directory used when recording the action.
    I've also looked into scripts and batch processing and can't figure out how they can accomplish this.
    If anyone could list a simple step by step instruction how I can do this I would be very appreciative!

  • Can Photoshop CS6 automatically reopen previously open files on Mountain Lion?

    Mac OS X 10.8 introduced a new behavior - apps could automatically open the documents that were open in the last app execution.
    Can Photoshop CS6 be configured to behave this way?

    David,
    How about Chrome, bbedit (even back to version 9.1.1), PixelMator, others, none of which are 'Apple Apps'.
    The Resume and Autosave APIs have been around since 10.7 (2011).
    Maybe if Adobe wasn't so busy trying to shove us all into a rental model they'd have time to consider implementing OS APIs that have existed for more than 2 years.

  • How can I remove the Similar Items plugin? It doesn't show up in addons

    The Similar Items addon is back, and it seems they have gotten trickier in how they are installing themselves. All of the previous instructions for removing it no longer work. Has anybody figured this out yet?

    Can you confirm it is injected one of your extensions? you could test the same activit in Firefox's Safe Mode. That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Any difference?
    If that kills it, then scrutinize your extensions. It could be one you don't recognize, or it could be a feature of one of the seemingly innocent ones. For example, in a 2012 post, someone mentioned Awesome Screenshot as having "similar items" ads you had to turn off.
    More generally, because bad extensions often arrive in a bundle, I suggest starting here:
    Open the Windows '''Control Panel''', Uninstall a Program. After the list loads, click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help in smoking out undisclosed items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
    Next, in Firefox, open the '''Add-ons page''' using either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    (1) In the left column, click Plugins. If you find a plugin that you don't recognize or which doesn't sound essential, try setting it to "Never Activate". ''(The most essential Plugin is Shockwave Flash. You can use most sites without the others.)''
    (2) In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable (or Remove, if possible) unrecognized and unwanted extensions.
    Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Finally, you can "mop up" remaining issues with the scanning/cleaning tools suggested in this support article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
    Success?

  • Bridge to Photoshop Automate lost

    I just got a new iMac with OS 10.5.7.  Photoshop and Bridge were working beautifully for the first couple of days.  This morning I cannot access Photoshop through the Bridge Tools menu to use Image Processor and other items.  I have some Russell Brown scripts in this menu, but when I try to use them I get the message, "Reference error:  Photoshop is undefined."  What does this mean?  How can I fix it?
    I have re-created my Preferences to no avail.  I have reinstalled and updated Photoshop to no avail.
    I am desperate with a deadline crashing in on me.
    Thank you.

    Do you mean refresh when you say recreated?
    To be sure, restart Bridge holding down option key and choose refresh
    preferences. After this reset the prefs to your wishes and doublecheck if
    the Photoshop Start up script in bridge Pref's is selected.
    Also see if the batch and Russel Brown script will work in Photoshop itself
    using the automate menu.
    If still no luck try to refresh the preferences for PS itself by restarting
    PS with holding down shift + Option(alt) + Cmd key together and choose to
    delete the current preferences. (also reset them to your wishes (some
    settings need a restart for PS to be affected.
    If still no luck quit both apps and delete the plist files for both Bridge
    and PS from your preferences folder in the user library and try again.
    I have re-created my Preferences to no avail.  I have reinstalled and updated
    Photoshop to no avail.

  • Cannot backup my files / copy my files and folders due to error message " The operation can't be completed because an item with the name ".DS_Store" already exists. "

    Hi Apple community!
    I have a [rather worrying] problem.
    When I try to copy all my files from my documents on my mac [or the entire documents folder] into an external drive, I get this error message
    " The operation can’t be completed because an item with the name “.DS_Store” already exists. "
    I am not given an option to skip this file or anything else.
    But I simply cannot complete the operation!
    I have tried deleting a few of the .ds_store files, [both in the original and in the destinations]
    but no success.
    The same thing keeps happening.
    At first, this was just happening when I was trying to backup to my dropbox folder [the one on my mac's harddrive, which gets synced to the cloud],
    but then I tried to back up my documents to my external hard drive, and I realized it is giving me the same error message.
    So effectively, it seems I cannot backup my files anywhere!
    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.

  • Operation can't be completed because an item of same name already exist

    Hi, my first post. I've search the net for similar problems but nothing exact.
    I have a Maxtor OneTouch 4 (1TB)that just returned cos I got it exchanged. While it was being exchanged, I used a Maxtor OneTouch (640GB). I had transferred everything from my 1TB to the 640GB.
    Now that the 1TB's back, I want to transfer everything back. But when I try to transfer anything from the 640GB to the 1TB, an error message appears saying "operation can't be completed because an item "(of same name)" already exist."
    After I click OK on the error message, only the folder gets copied over to the 1TB but NONE of its contents.
    This only happens when I transfer folders. If I were to transfer individual files, e.g a picture, it's successful.
    Things that do work:
    - transferring files and folders from computer to both HDDs
    - transferring files and folders from either HDDs to computer
    So the only problem is transfers between both HDDs.
    I read some thread that repairing permissions might help but when I enter Disk Utility, "Verify Disk permissions" or "Repair Disk Permissions" are both greyed out.
    Does anybody have experience with this problem? Please help, the 640GB is exploding!
    Thanks in advance!

    "have you tried using Disk Utility to erase 1TB HHD and reformat before trying to copy the data back?"
    Yes, I had to format the 1TB to FAT before I use it.
    whoa there. why did you format the drive FAT? that's an obsolete windows drive format and OS X is known to have various issues with it. this may easily account for your problems. strongly suggest you reformat the drive mac os extended.
    "have you tried using the restore option within Disk Utility to copy the data back instead of doing it manually?"
    There's nothing on the 1TB to restore because I sent it in for warranty exchange. So its brand new, nothing in it.
    he was suggesting that you use the restore tab in disk utility to copy the 640GB drive to the new 1TB one. that's what I suggested too but I mentioned using superduper or CCCloner.
    but you really should reformat the drive first. the only reason to use FAT is if you want to use the drive from both mac and windows. but then you'll likely have to live with the quirks of FAT and OS X.

  • Problem with copying to external drives 10.8.3 "the operation can't be completed because an item with the name .ds_store exists"

    After upgrading from 10.7.5 to 10.8.3 I cannot copy certain folders to any external drive. the operation can't be completed because an item with the name .ds_store exists.

  • Automate Creation of new items in EBS

    Hey everyone -
    Just a question ,
    we want to automate creation of new items in our system.
    Our view is something like -
    1. user GUI to request a new item, according to predefined templates.
    2. Users fill a few fields of information.
    3. Item manager gets notified and approves item is needed.
    4. Automation to run batch and create everything relevant. (org assignment, item KFF, category assignments, BOMs etc). As much automation as possible, we can map template behaviour, variety is small.
    I was wondering if there is any product supporting such behaviour.
    I looked into Oracle's APC, and it seems like it doesnt do enough. Besides as far as I noticed it relies mostly on Item Catalog attributes which we don't. Also Im not sure if this product is "alive" coz oracle bought AGILE for PLM.
    Does anyone know of a product that supports creation of new items and is flexible to fit our needs?
    We want to make sure we're not missing something before we develop custom code for that.
    Thanks,
    Aaron

    Hi,
    This is prom PIM to Oracle
    I have done an interface which creates an item in master and child .Which assighns category set on iots level controls .It inserts item into all active subinventories.
    It notifies the end user with email any item already exits and error .
    Regarding templates.
    it assigs compatible templates at master and org leve.These are predefined and are not validated in program

  • Exit for automatic creation of line items in VA01

    Hello All,
    I have a requirement wherein I need to create next blank new line item (with predefined line item no) upon creation of one line item. When user opens sales order creation screen there should be default line item (say line item no 10) created. If user fills data in item 10 & press enter exit should create next line item (say item 20) automatically.
    Currently line item get created after user enter item details. I want this to happen before user enters data.
    Regards,
    Abhijeet more

    There is a customizing for this. You can also make it using MV45AFZZ but really difficult coding. You must debug what system do while you create a line item manually then u need to use every routine which system uses and even there is no error message it's still possible that you'll face with inconsistencies in billing.
    I don't suggest you to try this using exit, unless you have 2-3 years SD experience. Best thing to do is inspecting customizing part.
