Can you automate actions involving pairs of images?

Hi everyone,
This is my situation:
I want to take a headshot and a name and then paste both onto a background image and then save out the result. But I want to do this with many pairs of headshots and names. The headshot and name are each in separate images, and the background image is a separate image that will be the same for every pair. Using batch commands I know I can easily insert the headshots into the same background, or the names into the same background, but is there a way to insert both the name and headshot into this background and save out the results? From what I can tell, there doesn't seem to be a way to do this without getting into scripting.
I'm using Photshop CS5.5 with Windows.
Any answers would be appreciated.
Thanks and regards

Creating data driver graphics is one way to create the kind of collage you want. If you have all the information in a database or spread sheet they can mostlikelt create the CSV files you need to go with the template you create.
As been pointed out an other way to do it is with Photoshop Scripting however you need some to design some collage process. I put togeter a set of Script to populate Collage templates that follow four simple rules. It would be very easy to create a template for two images. The images can be stamped with the files name in one of 9 positions. The Ordere in which images will be populated from a source image folder can be controlled ny adding a sequence number followed by a # as a prefix to the file name example "100#John Doe Jr..jpg" "101#Bozo The Clown.psd" "200#George Washing.CR2" 201#Marther Washington.tif" Using the BatchMultiImageCollage scripu you select the two Image protrait template point to the source folder point at the target folder check that you want name stamps select the font and position. The prefix and extention will not be part of the name stamp.

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

Can you hook up multiple pairs of wireless headphones to the MDR-DS6500 base unit

Can you hook up multiple pairs of wireless headphnes to the MDR-DS6500 base unit or do you need a base unit for every pair you would like to connect to your tv? if you can which models are compatible?
Thanks

Do I need an AirPort to attach to each set of speakers that I want to connect, or is there another kind of receiver I can hook up to the speakers that do not have any kind of WiFi or Bluetooth configuration?
You basically have two choices: 1) Place an AirPort Express base station at each of the speaker locations, or 2) Use an AirPlay-Ready receiver that offers whole-home audio support. The latter would require that all speakers be connected back to the receiver.
Also, if I am planning to set up the airplay by using the extended network configuration, then the Wifi base station does not need to be an AirPort station? I have Fios and had trouble last time I tried to hook up an AirPort in place of the router that they provided.
The AirPlay networking protocol requires either a wireless or wired connection between the AirPlay server (typically iTunes) and the AirPlay speaker (AirPort Express, Apple TV, or an AirPlay-Ready receiver or speaker). AirPlay will traverse over an extended Wi-Fi network regardless of which manufacturer hardware is used.

Can you automatically start programs when you switch on your imac

can you automatically start programs when you switch on your imac

Yes, go to: Apple / System Preferences / User Groups / Login Items and add the Application to the list of things automatically set to start at login.
However, you should limit it to those that you need or use, because adding a lot will needlessly slow down your startup time and use more RAM.

How can you automate the monthly opening of MM periods

How can you automate the monthly opening of MM periods ????????????

RMMMPERI accepts a period/year or a date.
If you enter a date the period is derived by it.
1. create a variant and check the attribute 'selection variable' for the parameter date. Then click the button 'Selection variables' and set the current date. Every time this variant is used the parameter DATE is filled with the current date.
2. create a job for RMMMPERI with the variant created in the preceding step. Set it as periodic.
If you're not using a fiscal year variant simply schedule it as monthly (to be executed the first day of the month).
If you are using a fiscal year variant you'd have to define a calendar with only the first day of each period defined as working
day and use it in the periodicity restrictions.
Another possibility:
Write a very simple ABAP which run daily to check if the period has changed and submit RMMMPERI.

Can you automatically downsample images in Keynote without cropping?

Hello All,
I am trying to get Keynote to perform what I think is a pretty basic task, but can't figure out how to make it happen. I am an art teacher and frequently show my students slide shows made from a large database of .jpgs I have amassed. Most of the .jpgs were scanned at high resolutions - roughly 2500px on the long edge. They are made at this size to anticipate improvements in projector resolution in the future. The slideshows I make are at XGA (1024x768) because this is the native resolution of the school's projectors.
I want to be able to drop large numbers of slides into a slideshow and have Keynote to automatically downsample them to fit on an XGA slide without cropping the image. I currently have "Reduce placed images to fit on slides" checked in the General Preferences. This does downsample the images, but does so in a way that fills the slide with the image and crops on one dimension depending on the aspect ratio of the image. So for example, with the two Kertesz images below, the top and bottom is cropped off the first one and the sides off of the second one. Keynote scales it down so that the image fills the entire slide rather than scaling down so the entire image can fit on the slide.
FIG 1a
FIG 2a
I can then go in and resize the image manually in the metrics tab of the inspector so that the full image is represented in each slide (Fig 1b and 2b below). I have to type in the dimension that is being cropped (768 in Fig 1, 1024 in Fig 2). This further downsamples the image fitting the entire image on the slide which is desired. Doing this for each slide can be burdensome though if I am showing slideshows of 100 or so images. My question is if there is a way to get the results below automatically. I would like to drop multiple images into my slideshow and have it be downsampled so that the entire image fits on the slide. Does anyone know how to make Keynote do this? Thanks.

In the layer of interest make sure the vector mask is selected. Then in the Masks panel adjust the feather slider to an amount that looks right.

Can you duplicate actions?

I've recently started creating a order form which will automatically fill in either the item description, product number, or unit price once selected either the product number or item description from the drop down box.
I made a smaller trial version of this form and it worked perfectly however adding all the possible 'actions' for when selecting from the drop down box took a very long time. The real order form will have a lot more items to choose from therefore will take even more time, which I don't have.
Is there a way to copy the actions I have for the first row (Product01, Description01, Unit01) for the rest of the rows in the order form, all I would need to change is the Product01 to Product02 etc etc.
This is what my table in my order form looks like:
Product No:
Description
Quantity
Unit Price
Total
PN01
Description 01
QTY 01
UNIT 01
TTL 01
PN02
Description 02
QTY 02
UNIT 02
TTL 01
PN03
Description 03
QTY 03
UNIT 03
TTL 03
PNO4
Description 04
QTY 04
UNIT 04
TTL 04
Field Names
Product No & Description are both drop down boxs
This is the code for one of the actions:
//- //+ GENERATED - DO NOT EDIT (ID:5F8FCFED-90F7-48DF-9CDA-91C02E1BC86F CRC:3737938537) //+ Type: Action //+ Result2: SetFieldValue("$Node3","tovalue","4.99") //+ Result1: SetFieldValue("$Node2","tovalue","Quality safety spectacles") //+ Node3: topmostSubform[0].Page1[0].UNIT_01[0] //+ Node2: topmostSubform[0].Page1[0].Description_01[0] //+ Node1: topmostSubform[0].Page1[0].PN01[0] //+ Condition1: ListField("$Node1","textselected","NB04B") //+ ActionName: PN01.change if ($.boundItem(xfa.event.newText) == "NB04B") { this.resolveNode("Description_01").rawValue = "Quality safety spectacles"; this.resolveNode("UNIT_01").rawValue = "4.99"; }
I just used an action builder to create these actions.
If someone could explain a way to copy these actions and apply it to each of the rows it would be a great help and very much appriciated!
Thanks

Is your table a set size? Can you use JavaScript on your form? Is your form dynamic?
Ok, I'm going to guess at these things and hope this answers your questions. (I'm guessing "no", "yeah, duh!", and "yes".)
Make sure your form is dynamic and whatever subform houses the table is able to pagebreak and is flowed.
Create your table with one header row and one other row.
in that other row, add your drop down list in the first column and textfields in the others.
In the 'exit' event add the following code:
     var rowNum = this.parent.instanceManager.count - 1;
     if (!this.isNull && this.parent.instanceIndex == rowNum) this.parent.instanceManager.addInstance();
     switch(this.rawValue){
          case("PN01"):
               this.parent.tfDescription.rawValue = "Description of PN01";
               this.parent.tfUnitPrice = "15.00";
               break;
          case("PN02"):
               this.parent.tfDescription.rawValue = "Description of PN02";
               this.parent.tfUnitPrice = "5.00";
               break;
          case("PN03"):
                      this.parent.tfDescription.rawValue = "Description of PN03";
                      this.parent.tfUnitPrice = "25.00";
               break;
          //etc. for each PN
Of course, I don't know your prices, so I'm just guessing those and the variable names. Since you aren't adding product serial numbers, they should be strings. Make sure you put "quotes" around them in the case( ): lines
This code will automatically be added to each line in the table, and the table will add rows for you automatically. It will not add rows if the client is changing his/her selection. It will also not remove a line if the user decides to remove that choice. You can add a button for that if you'd like.

Offline updates mechanism: how many times can you use it before corrupting the image(wim)?

Hi,
As title mentions: "how many times can you use sccm 2012 offline updates for the wim file before corrupting the image(wim)"?

In my experience the offline servicing feature is only OK and too unreliable for production.

Can you add actions to the Flash Media Player?

I have 2 wmv files. One is the audio and one is the video. I
don't own any software that combines both formats maintaining
perfect video quality. If I import the video wmv file into Flash
(converting it first with the Flash video encoder) is there any way
I can create an action that plays and pauses a seperate audio track
in the project file (when hitting the button in the Flash media
player). ??
Thanks

Can you automatically mirror an image?

Is there a simple way to create a mirrored image, and I don't mean a hortizontal flip. I want the front-back flip you get when you hold a book up to a mirror.
For example, this is the original image
Most tutorials online say use the hortizonal flip. However, notice the pink is now on the left? Like the name says this is a flip, not a mirror.
In this image I manually edited the top row so it appears mirrored. The pink bar stays on the right side, but the images of the books appear reversed.
Is there a simple and easy to do this in photoshop? Flipping each book cover by hand is pretty time consuming.

Hrizontally flipping each layer would be the way to go for the bottom image. However a true mirror would be like the middle image.

Can you click on an open Lightbox image to close the Lightbox?

Does anyone out there know about the "work-around" so that when you click an open Lightbox image, the Lightbox will close?
I can get the Lightbox image to close when I click outside the Lightbox image, but can't figure out a way to close it when I click on the Lightbox image.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thickbox is a form of Lightbox.
The link is to the download and description page which clearly points out that Thickbox allows viewers to close the image by clicking anywhere inside or out of the image when it's displayed. (Which I believe is what you originally asked when the thread was started)
I wasn't trying to be smart-assed or cryptic.
That's why I posted it in 20 point type. It was my intention that you'd see it as a link and follow it for more information.
Since I obviously got it wrong, here's the info:
ThickBox is a webpage UI dialog widget written in JavaScript on top of the jQuery library. Its function is to show a single image, multiple images, inline content, iframed content, or content served through AJAX in a hybrid modal.

Overview-
Features:
ThickBox was built using the super lightweight jQuery library. Compressed, the jQuery library is 20k, uncompressed it's 58k.
The ThickBox JavaScript code and CSS file only add an additional 15k (only 10k by using the thickbox-compressed.js) on top of the jQuery code. The CSS file could additionally be compressed if need be.
ThickBox will resize images that are bigger than the browser window.
ThickBox offers versatility (images, iframed content, inline content, and AJAX content).
ThickBox will hide form elements in Windows IE 6.
ThickBox will remain centered in the window even when the user scrolls the page or changes the size of the browser window. Clicking an image, the overlay, or close link will remove ThickBox.
Due to the ThickBox creator's view that transitions should be tailored by individual authors, ThickBox windows do not implement fancy transitions. Feel free to add them as you see fit. Is this a feature? Well, some might say it is.
ThickBox can be invoked from a link element, input element (typically a button), and the area element (image maps).
Download
code
css
gif
compressed code
Download thickbox.js or thickbox-compressed.js, ThickBox.css, and the loading graphic (loadingAnimation.gif) to your local machine (or cut and paste the code from the tabs). Along with these three files, a copy of the jQuery JavaScript library is needed. For this site, and ThickBox, I am using the compressed version of jQuery.

How to Implement ThickBox:
Before you can implement ThickBox make sure the page that invokes ThickBox has a valid DTD. This is required for ThickBox to look and function correctly.
1. ThickBox requires the jQuery JavaScript library; because of this, you will need to include the jquery.js file in the head element of your web page, followed by the thickbox.js file (NOTE: jquery.js must come first in the source order). Example below:
<script type="text/javascript" src="path-to-file/jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="path-to-file/thickbox.js"></script>
Once you have included the .js files, open thickbox.js or thickbox-compressed.js and locate the tb_pathToImage variable at the top of the page. Once you have found it, make sure to change the value of tb_pathToImage to the path where the loadingAnimation.gif file is located on your own server.
2. Include the ThickBox CSS file in your web page. As of version 3.1 you will                     also need to update the path to the macFFBgHack.png in the thickbox.css                     file. Example options below:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="path-to-file/thickbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
Or
<style type="text/css" media="all">@import "path-to-file/thickbox.css";</style>
Or, open the thickbox.css file                     and copy and paste the styles into an existing style sheet. Be                     aware that the ThickBox CSS file will remove the browsers default                     padding and margin for all elements.
3. View the examples to learn the many different ways to use and invoke ThickBox functionality.

Change Log
As of 08/01/2007
Added modal functionality to ThickBox iframes
Fixed Flash transparency issue with Firefox on OSX
Updated to jQuery 1.1.3.1
Changed how inline content is handled in Thickbox. Instead of duplicating the inline content thickbox will now move it accordingly inside of the DOM
Safari iframe source issue solved
As of 05/02/2007
If sizes are not set for width and/or height (inline, iframe, and ajax content), ThickBox will default to a width of 630px and a height of 440px
iframe hack to hide &select" elements now only runs in IE 6
Scrollbars are removed in IE 6 when a ThickBox is opened (to counter IE 6's errant width and height calculations)

How can you automate to combine multiple photos in photoshop

i have thousand photos prefer to combine them in a group of 3 photos into one combined photo in an automated process...
3 photos should line up accordingly one after one ... crop the combined photo to the max size possible ... set the image size of combined photo to 2000 by 1300 pixels ... save the combined photo...
start with the next 3 photos in the folder...
is this possible to automate with photoshop cc?...
thanks for help...
cheers,

The contact sheet script is what it is. If you need more than what it provides, I suggest you create your own custom scripts and actions.

Can you automatically trigger a form submit (post)

Is it possible to automatically trigger a form 'action'
(re-direct) without asking the user to press a button.
I'm at the stage where the user has made some choices
(shopping basket's full) and has decided to pay (press pay button)
so I want now to do some data manipulation and data recording
before transmiting the payment request to Worldpay.
I can do this using querystrings but I'd rather do it with
hidden fields on a form..... is it possible?
I'm imagining calling a payment processing routine from the
shoping basket page which would have a form containing nothing but
hidden fields.
Regards.

Not reliable, since it would require JavaScript and usually
looks like
an error in the application design. HTTP doesn't allow POST
redirects
for good reasons.
But of course you could use server-side scripts to send POST
requests to
a third site behind the scenes. The user won't notice that,
so you would
have to find another way to tell them what happen(s|ed).

Just to make it clear: User presses "pay" button, the form
submits to
your own site. Then you want to do some manipulations, before
the data
is forwarded to the payment provider. Is this correct?
I would probably do it like indicated above: User presses
"pay" button,
form submits to your own site. You do your calculations and
then let
your script forward the data to the payment provider, either
with GET or
POST. Your script receives the response and returns a result
page to the
user. That way your script would work like a proxy between
the user and
the payment provider. Of course this is just an idea, it
might work in
some cases, but might fail in others.
> I'm imagining calling a payment processing routine from

>page which would have a form containing nothing but
hidden fields.
Besides the unreliability mentioned above, you should also be
aware that
_all_ informations coming from the client-side can be
manipulated. This
means that users would be able to change the data in the
hidden form
fields before it is sent to the final recipient, they just
have to know
how. It depends on the informations and the used scripts if
this can
become an issue, but it should at least be kept in mind.

Can you automatically embed Exif data in DNG files LR4

For years I have been using Bridge and ACR for my raw workflow. I use only DNG files and have the database turned off so the EXIF data is embedded right into the original DNG file. This means my files are 100% portable without and sidecar.
Can I work with lightroom 4 without having a database? OR can I assure that each DNG file has all it's setting automatically embedded as it does in Bridge?
Thanks,
Tom

In the catalog settings, metadata tab, there is an option to automatically write to XMP. That should do what you want. Since there is no sidecar file with the DNG file exif data will be written to the file.

Can you change the color of an image without changing it in photoshop first?

I have created a link for Indesign using Photoshop. It is basically a plain black graphic that is placed over an aerial to highlight the represented water. It is possible to change the color of this graphic without actually going back into photoshop?

Another option is to make a path around the image, so that you have a vector shape with full control over fill and transparency.
You can do the path in Ps, save as clipping path, bring into InD, position, convert clipping path to frame, select and delete content, fill, fade...
It may be easier to do the path in InD, but perhaps accurate positioning over the area you're after would be an issue.

Can you automate actions involving pairs of images?
