Changes to using graphic settings in Bridge CS6 scripts

The "CS6 Tools Guide" document shows no changes in how graphical settings should be used for Foreground Colour, Background Colour, Fonts and Font Size, as well as the use of Images in panels.  All these work as before with scripts used in Photoshop CS6.  But with Bridge CS6 the use of an image will crash Bridge, whereas the settings for Colours and Fonts are just ignored.  Does Bridge CS6 now have customised settings for graphical changes to panels?  Or is this a bug?

I'd much rather have 32 bits that do what they ought to… sounds like CS6 has 48 that don't…

  • Colour washed out when using image processor in Bridge CS6

    Hi there
    I hope somebody can help please?!
    I am editing raw files in Camera Raw 8.2, then using image processor through Bridge CS6 to save them as both jpegs and tiffs.
    I am finding the colour on the saved files is coming out a little washed out and faded.
    If I open them individually and save them in PS6 as jpeg and tiffs, the colour remains vibrant and true to the original raw file.
    I have thousands of these files to go through and don't have time to open each one individually in this way so I am desperate to automate this process while still retaining the great colour in the original shots.
    Can anyone tell me why the shots are coming out this way and help offer a solution for me please?
    Any advice would be massively appreciated!
    Many thanks

    Hi,
    Do you have Include ICC Profile checked at the bottom of the Image Processor dialog?

  • Can't use Graphics Processor for Photoshop CS6 on Windows 8

    Hi,
    I just got a fresh upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8 Pro (not beta) but then I can't use Photoshop that well. In the Preferences > Performance, I can't tick "Use Graphics Processor". I have an ATI graphics card and yep, I've already tried upgrading/reinstalling my graphics driver, even installing old ones -- and still, this doesn't solve my problem (even in its control panel, I can't seem to see the settings of the graphics card!)
    Any ideas/suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks!

    What display driver have you installed?  And what is your card?
    The ATI Catalyst 12.8 driver release claims to be compatible with Windows 8, though I haven't tried the combination myself yet.
    Did you install Windows 8 as an upgrade or a clean install?  The latter is always preferable.
    I know a secret registry incantation that will force Photoshop to use the OpenGL subsystem no matter what, and I've used that to get GPU acceleration in a test installation in a virtual machine, but rather that put that forth just yet let's find out if you've done all you can the "above board" way first.

  • I cannot get Options to accept change to 'use custom settings in history', it only accepts other 2 choices.

    I can't log in to sites that require cookies saved. I followed instructions to set tools: options to use custom history option. If I hit 'okay', it doesn't keep it set to this choice. If I set it to 'Remember history' or 'Never remember history', it keeps those choices. I started in Safe Mode with add-ons disabled and nothing changed. Please help, I don't want to use Internet Explorer.

    Firefox shows the "(Never) Remember history" setting if all the history and cookie setting are the default.
    Make at least one change to the default setting if you want "Use custom settings for history" to stay selected.
    Otherwise Firefox will revert to "(Never) Remember history" if you return to the Privacy tab.
    The choice "Use custom settings for history" will stay selected as long as not all settings are the default to make you aware that you made changes.
    You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"<br />

  • CAN'T USE DEVELOP SETTINGS IN BRIDGE

    HELLO,
    i am using cs3 extended and my camera is a canon 40d. i downloaded camera raw 4.2 and installed it. i am able to see my raw images in bridge but am not able to use the develop settings tab under the edit tab. it is greyed out. so any help would be appreciated.
    thanks
    tim

    You installed the Camera Raw plug-in in the wrong location.
    Read the instructions again and pay attention to the location of the Library;  it is NOT your user library but your ROOT Library.
    Last but not least, download and instal ACR 4.6.  All versions of ACR support all camera models supported by previous versions of the plug-in, and they contained unannounced, unpublicized bug fixes, enhancements and improvements.  There's no reason to use an obsolete version like ACR 4.2.

  • Problems changing colour using Graphics class in java.awt

    Hi,
    The problem only happens when more than two images are on a panel. In this case, I have to strings that are drawn. The first drawn string is called "A" the second drawn string is called "B". However, when i change the colour of "B" to let's say Red, the panel erases the letter "B" and insteads changes "A" to red. How can I fix this so that when the user chooses the colour red it changes the colour of the latest drawn string and not the first one. please help!!!!
    import java.awt.*;
    public class StringPanel extends GBPanel
         private String shape = "clear", str;
         private int x, y;
         private Color color = Color.black;
         public void paintComponent(Graphics g)
              super.paintComponent(g);
              g.setColor (color);
              if(shape.equalsIgnoreCase("draw string"))
                   g.setColor(color);
                   g.drawString(str, x, y);
              else if (shape.equalsIgnoreCase("exit"))
                   System.exit(0);
         public void drawCurve(Color color)
         this.color = color;
         repaint();
         public void drawString(String shape, String str, int x, int y)
              this.shape = shape;
              this.str = str;
              this.x = x;
              this.y = y;
              repaint();
         public void drawString1(String shape, String str, int x, int y)
              Graphics g = getGraphics();
              g.setColor(color);
              if (shape.equalsIgnoreCase("draw string"))
                   g.setColor(color);
                   g.drawString(str, x, y);
              else
                   repaint();
    }

    well, as I said, I can't remember what the update method thing was for... I think it was related to not clearing the screen first.
    Anyway, if you maintain a list of objects that should be drawn and then in the paintComponent method, loop thru the list of objects and redraw them, it will work. Then you change the state of an object and call repaint. When you are going to change color, you need to, in effect, redraw the entire affected area. Now this can be done partially with clipping, but it's complicated to deal with that. So the simplest way is just redraw everything on repaint.

  • Bridge CS6 Script to Find Multiple Images in Multiple folders.

    Is it possible to have a script to find multiple images within multiple folders that is on a external hard drive?
    For instances I have a external hard drive assuming it's for a library of pictures.
    Inside this hard drive has folders named as below
    1-1000
    1001-2000
    2001-3000
    3001-4000
    If I had a perfect csv file for example that calls out for specific pictures for example 2, 10,1500 and 2000 (remember think big, it may be a larger list than this it could be hundreds or thousands of pictures); is there a script that would allow me to find these images and save a copy of them on to my desktop so that way I don't have to hunt for them in the old fashion way? I can read scripts but writing them is a different story.

    If you want to go with Batch I would recommend creating an Action of more or less these steps:
    • set the resolution to the same as the background image’s
    • change the image from Background Layer to regular Layer if necessary
    • convert it to a Smart Object
    • add a Drop Shadow Layer Style to the image (do not use Global Angle)
    • place the background image (File > Place …)
    • move it behind the image layer
    • Image > Reveal All
    • make Selection from that layer’s transparency (cmd-click its icon in the Layers Panel) and use Image > Crop
    • select and transform the image layer to fit the intended position
    This would naturally work out best if the images had the same size and proportions.
    For the reflection on the floor duplicate the image, flip it vertically, move it in position and reduce its opacity to maybe 10%.
    Realistically you may have to hide it partially behind the pillows, a Vector Mask would be an option.

  • CS6 Use graphics processor+Laptops/Nividia Optimus - incompatible in Win8 since Nvidia 304.79 Beta?

    Hi.
    In Photoshop CS6 the layers are not displayed at all if using Nivdia Geforce drivers 306.02 in Windows 8 64-bit.
    If I revert back to Nvidia Geforce drivers 304.79 (Beta) - it works fine - the layers are now displayed.
    I've posted this as a bug feedback to Nividia - and now I'm also posting it to Adobe here.
    The laptop system uses Nividia Optimus hybrid graphics and Photoshop has been setup using the defaults (PS profile from Nvidia) to use the Nvidia card as High Performance Graphics. Photoshop hardware acceleration does not crash with either driver set - except since 304.79 Beta the layers are not displayed. So something has changed with Nvidia after the 304.79 Beta release, i.e. a bug - or Adobe has a bug in its implemention for DirectX with hard acceleration.
    Regards,
    Computermensch

    Nvidia has just updated their drivers for Win8 and Notebooks to 306.97
    I can confirm that Use Graphics Processor in PS CS6 now works with Nividia Optimus
    BTW To the guy just above who put a question in this thread about Nividia Optimis and PS6 - but about symptomatic errors message from IE when using YouTube - and has an Nividia chip.
    Nividia does extend IE with addons. Sounds like you should test for your system for virus or other similar bad configurations in your system. The error messages you receive from IE are not standard. Or if they are, then IE is telling you have malicious software installed. I.e. In any case, you have malicious software - you system is infected ... you have software making your system malfunction ... clean it up

  • Shortcuts for Batch and Image Processor in Bridge CS6

    I use Batch and Image Processor all the time, and I'd like to use a shortcut.
    Can you tell me if there is a shortcut or how I can program one?
    I set up shortcuts for those two commands in Photoshop, but they don't work in Bridge.
    I remember from the time I started with Photoshop and had Deke McClelland's book with his set of shortcuts. There was a shortcut that worked with image processor, but it was just a set you did install and no explanation. When I moved to a different computer and a newer version of Photoshop, these keys got lost.
    Is there any way to automate Batch and Image Processor?

    There is no way to economically batch process in Bridge without having to go thorough sub-menus.
    I'm sorry you can't get it to work, but on my system it works flawless.
    Testing a bit more it seems you don't need to use a unique shortcut at all. I also tried to use the shortcut for Batch I created in PS itself to get the Batch window to front for running actions on open files. For me that is [control + Cmd + B] but feel free to find an other one.
    When I discovered you don't need the unique shortcut at all I used the same shortcut for Bridge CC. . Also created [Control + Cmd + i] for the Image processor.
    Both started without problems.
    To extend I also created both same shortcuts for Bridge CS6. This also was working correctly, off course, having only PS CC open using the shortcut in Bridge CS6 it auto started PS CS6.
    So can you specify a bit more about what OS you are using on what computer (I have OSX 10.8.4 on a MacPro 2012)
    Some screenshots to show the shortcuts in System prefs and how the show in the Bridge Submenus:

  • Bridge CS6 with Photoshop CC?

    Due to problems I'm having with Bridge CC I'd like to use Bridge CS6, but when using Image Processor from Bridge CS6 it launches PS CS6 (even if PS CC is already open). Is there a way to direct Bridge to use PS CC 2014 instead?
    I'm on a Mac running Mavericks.

    I think the problem is actually in Bridge>Prefrences>Startup Scripts.
    There I have the option to allow applications to communicate with CS 6 (otherwise Image Processor wont work) but not CC.
    Is it possible to insert a PS CC 2014 Startup Script in there? Where would I find it and where would I put it?

  • Using libraries vs. Bridge for graphics in placeholder frames

    Hi,
    I do not understand the advantanges of using libraries vs. Bridge for my purpose:
    Purpose:
    I am working with templates using graphic placeholder frames. The frames are anchored in table cells and have object styles applied defining e.g. the placement of the graphic within the graphic frame.
    I want to set up central graphic library for all graphics used in all my documents.
    The graphics should then be linked into the documents
    Idea:
    set up various InDesign libraries and then drag the graphics into the placeholder frames. Then, when the graphic needs to be changed, do the changes in the library and have all my documents updated at once.
    Problem:
    Dragging graphics from the library into the placeholder frames does not seem to work. They are simply placed onto the page and NOT in the graphic frame. On the other hand when I simply store the graphics in various subdirectories in my file system and drag the graphics onto the page using Adobe Bridge, they ARE placed in the graphic placeholder frames.
    The library therefore seems a disadvantage, so why should I use a library instead of the Bridge?
    Also, will be upgrading to CS5 soon an want to use the live-linking caption feature. Should I use libraries or the Bridge approach?
    Stumped on this issue

    I like the idea with the snippet, but when dragging a snippet from Bridge there is still the same problem as with the library item: The graphic is NOT placed into the graphic placeholder frame of my template but is a free-flowing new graphic item which has to be placed manually.
    Interestingly, a JPG-file simply saved in the filesystem and dragged from Bridge and dropped over the placeholder frame WILL place the JPG into the frame!
    Why won't snippets do this??

  • Power Map has encountered an error and it needs to close, after changing the graphic settings

    I've been using the updated Power Map tool successfully over the past few days.
    Last night I was playing around with the graphics settings that can be found under the File Tab (I know that should teach me from playing around and following the user guide :-) ) and I changed the detail from Medium to High (I think) and now all that happens
    when I click on create a new tour or select an existing tour is
    "Power Map has encountered an error and it needs to close. Power Map can collection information about the error and create an e-mail which you will be able to send to Microsoft and help us fix the problem. Do you want to do this?"
    The error that gets generated can be seen below.

  • Cannot use Higher Performance graphic settings

    Hello,
    When I originally bought my Macbook Pro three weeks ago, I had no issues with going to system preferences and selecting and saving the "Higher Performance" setting for the graphics for the Power Adapter. This visibly improved graphics performance for some programs I use.
    However, recently, I noticed graphics performance wasn't as expected when running on house power, and I noticed that in system preferences < Energy Saver, my graphics settings have been placed back to "better battery life" for the Power Adapter setting...I keep trying to change it back to "Higher Performance;" when I log out and back in, and re-check the Energy Saver settings, there's a message box saying that I still need to log out for the changes to save. I can log out multiple times and they never seem to save, with that message continuing to be there. If I reboot altogether, and go back to system preferences < energy saver, its back to "better battery life," as if I never made an attempt to select "Higher Performance." Ive tried repairing permissions, and I've tried repairing the disk using the start up DVD during the boot cycle, and nothing seems to help. Since this is a new computer with few items on it, I even did a clean install of the OS....still to no avail.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    my problem is simalar but different.
    my new macbook pro summer 2009 2.53 has no option to switch beetween low and high performance in the energy saver pref pane.
    googling i found that this is not a isolated case.
    someone solved the problem extracting from a leopard dvd with pacifist the 4.0 version of the energy saver pref pane.
    all this situation may be caused by the 10.5.8 update.
    Hope tha someone at apple try to reserve some working hour to solve this problem with an update instead of pushing hard on the snow leo launch

    In the past, there were folders you could copy, but given the database changes, I'm not sure, I need to check first with the team.
    On a Mac, it is in the collections folders in ~Library/ApplicationSupport/Adobe/Bridge CS5/Collections/

    VIsta/7: user/app data/roaming/Adobe/Bridge CS5/Collections

    When upgrading no files are copied from the previous version.  So you will have to find them and copy them over.  Locations are in post above.
