Color Adjustments - Selecting Custom Hue with Eyedropper

Dear all
I have difficulties adjusting colors in my images, I am trying to adjust a specific hue, by selecting a color with the eyedropper (Adjustments-Color). Instead of selecting the desired hue from the picture, it always selects red color, regardless of the color selected in the picture (it actually selects the correct color when pushing the mouse button down, but then selects red when releasing the mouse button). I tried that with different pictures (jpg and raw), allways the same problem. I am using Aperture 3.4.3
Anybody with an idea? Thanks!

Do you have any other user accounts on your Retina MacBook? Does the issue still happen in a different user account?
If doesn't happen in the other account, the issue is likely with one of your preference files. There's instructions on how to do that in the middle of this article.
I doubt that the problem is with your library, but you could try switching to a different Aperture library just to rule that out by holding the "Option" key when you launch Aperture.

Full-Bridge Strain Vs. Custom Voltage with Ex: outputs opposite polarities of eachother (SCXI 1314)

Please see my Sig for current hardware specs.
I have a manufactured load cell that I'm plugging into an SCXI-1314 wired for full bridge. When I condition and calibrate the load cell as a Full-Bridge Strain channel (shunt cal) my signal output is POSITIVE in compression.
If I take the same load cell plugged into the same channel in the 1314 and select Custom Voltage with Excitation and give it a mV/V slope curve in the Custom Scale the signal output is NEGATIVE in compression.
Why is this? I fear I'm overlooking something very rudementary.
Other than the polarities being opposite of eachother the signals appear just fine.

Good day!
What is "place" supposed to mean – open, place as Smart Object, …?
What are the image’s Color Mode and bit depth?
Could you please post a screenshot with the pertinent Panels visible?

Can't get Lightroom Color Management to select custom profiles

I can't get Lightroom Color Management to select custom profiles.
- I select "other" in Profile,
- a pop-up box shows me numerous profiles to choose from
- I select a profile and the selection is highlighted
- I press "OK" and the pop-up box disappears
- but if I go back to the "Profile" selection line, only "Managed by Printer" is available.
What's wrong here?
Is the inability to select a profile the reason that prints from Lightroom look way to dark when I print them?
Vick

Oh, I'm on Windows, XP with SP2.
The profiles are in C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\color
I used the .exe that was provided by Epson for installing the drivers.
Nothing fancy, nothing different.
For Lightroom, I installed it off CD, and got the 1.3.1 update off their Adobe site.
Any clues there, to solve the puzzle?

Setting custom color for selected node in JTree?

Hi,

Thanks

I assume you are not setting a custom tree cell renderer...
javax.swing.JTree theTree = ...;
java.awt.Color newBGColor = ...;
((javax.swing.tree.DefaultTreeCellRenderer)theTree.getCellRenderer())
.setBackgroundSelectionColor(newColor);

Are there any Color Adjustments for Safari? Printing with Magenta overlays.

Are there any Color Adjustments for Safari? When printing the iphone at www.apple.com/iphone/compare-iphones/ the phones have a Magenta Overlay on them. Tried Firefox and Chrome with same computer, plus a PC to the same printer. All else prints fine. Have Intel based iMac, updated to 10.7.5, and using Safari 6.0.1. I called Canon, and they said it is an issue with Safari. Any Solutions? Any way of replacing Safari? (Recently updated to Lion via software downloads. No disc.)

Welcome to Apple....
Kumusta Ka? Ma init pa dyan?
If you're browsing the web and you're internet connection is slow or sometimes dropping, it is normal for Safari to hang or freeze for a little bit until it connects to the site you're trying to view or visit.
Try this - go to system preferences - network - advance - dns and change your dns server.

Custom LAF with 2 colors

how can I make a custom LAF with 2 colors?
thanks in advance!

There is a general overview for LAF writers at [1]. It doesn't go into the details of the specific APIs though. I am not aware of a detailed tutorial for writing a custom LAF / writing a custom theme for Metal. The code for core and most third-party LAFs is freely available, and if you're required to write a LAF / a theme, you should be really looking at that code and not cutting any corners.

How to select "ISO A" (auto) using Custom Controls with lever assigned to ISO change?

On 7D Mark II with firmware 1.0.4, I have used Custom Controls to assign ISO change to the lever. However, it is not possible to change ISO to "ISO A" (auto).  How to select "ISO A" (auto) using Custom Controls with lever assigned to ISO change?

Follow Up:
Ok so ive changed things up a bit and have had some more success.
I have used a Switch statement in my For loop to perform different actions based on the item selected.
The code looks like this:
Workbook.Content.Table1.Row3.AppropriationDetails.Row4.Cell1::change - (JavaScript, client)
var fFrom = xfa.resolveNodes("Workbook.Content.Table1.Row3.AppropriationDetails[*] .Row4.Cell1");
var fTo = xfa.resolveNodes("Workbook.Content.Table2.Row3.AppropriationDetails[* ].Row4.Cell1");
for (var i=0; i <= fFrom.length-1; i++) {
     switch (fFrom.item(i).rawValue)
     case "Option 3":
     fTo.item(i).rawValue = "Enter the details in the field below";
     break;
     default:
     fTo.item(i).rawValue = fFrom.item(i).boundItem(xfa.event.newText);
     break;
This code solves my problem but has thrown up a new issue:
When i select Option 1 or 2 from the dropdown list the change in the text field is instantaneous, however if I select Option 3 it wont appear in the text field until I either select Option 3 a second time or select another item. Its as if the text field is a selction behind what I have enterd in the dropdown list.
Any thoughts?

How to set color space to JPEG image with Java advance Imaging

How to set color space to JPEG image with Java advance Imaging.
is there any API in JAI which support to set color space.

I'm definately no guru, but this is how you can change it.
CTRL + ALT + Click on the part of the component that you want to change. This brings up the Hidden Dom Inspector, background of component will be surrounded with a red outline (Make sure the red outline is surrounding the part of the tabset you want to change), Now you go to properties sheet and click the ellipses next to rules property this will pop up a dialog you look in this list (At the top) to see the default style classes that are affecting the rendering of the component outlined in red. (You will be able to select different sections of a single component) then you just rewrite the style class that you want to change in your Stylesheet (You will not find the styleclass that you want to change because it is a part of your theme .jar but as long as you name it exactly the same and place in your stylesheet it will override the theme .jar style classes) it's actually very easy -- you were right should be a piece of cake for a guru. Don't have the link handy but you can check out Winston's Blog on changing Table Formatting to get this information...It is EXTREMELY useful if you want your apps to have a custom look and not default that comes with Creator Themes.
Hope this helps you out God knows others have helped me alot!

Changing the base color of a raster image with a gradient.

Hi,
I have a small (8 pixel wide x 75 pixel high) raster (png) image that is I nice looking arangement or gradient of shades of green. I have a sample website I created when reading DreamWeaver CC Classroom in a Book that repeats this image horizontally to create the backgroung for a navigation menu.
I would like to "recreate" this same effect for my own website but in shades of gray instead of shades of green. Can anyone tell me what is the best way / tool in either Photoshop or Illustrator that would allow me to change this raster image so that each shade of green would be converted to a corresponding shade of gray, while preserving the same general effect / appearance that I am trying to re-create? If you could point me towards a tutorial or explanation of how to do this, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance,
Paul

One of the easiest ways is to just convert your color image to grayscale.
Image>Adjustments>Desaturate or shift-ctrl-u (windows) shift-cmd-u (mac)
Image>Adjustments>Black and white This filter will allow you to preview while to change individual colors if needed to darken or brighten that shade. (This would be more noticeable with a multi color image)
Image>Adjustments>Hue and Saturation or ctrl-u(windows) cmd-u(mac) This command will allow you to desaturate a color or alter its hue and or brightness. (This works good for changing the green to blue for example but will work for desaturating the green as well)
Most of those are called destructive commands as they are permanent.
Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Hue/Saturation
Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Black and White
Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Gradient Map
These are all non-destructive layers in that you can go back any time and alter these setting assuming you save in a format that supports layers. Like psd or tiff.

Can't make a workable custom codec with ProRes 422 (HQ)

I've only just now found that there is a Support Community for Compressor. Wish I'd known sooner.
I see my version of Compressor is 3.5.3.
I've been on a little saga.
I started out with the challenge of converting some MP4 files from a Blackberry Playbook into ProRes 422 (HQ) for editing in Final Cut. I used Compressor and the task looked fairly straight forward. I used the ProRes setting in the Compressor, converted my files and imported them into Final Cut. Video was fine but I soon found out that the audio needed rendering every time I put a clip into the Timeline. I went on-line to various chat rooms with this problem. Pretty soon a fellow was telling me that the ProRes 422 (HQ) setting in Compressor had "Audio Pass-through" as default and that this was the cause of my problem. Change it, he said, to "Linear PCM".
It took me a fair while to figure out that the ProRes setting in Compressor did not allow itself to be modified and that I'd have to create a custom preset if I was to make these changes. I set about to do that. I was able to select "QuickTime Movie" and then in "Video/Settings" choose "ProRes 422 (HQ)", in "Audio", "Linear PCM". This did solve the audio problem. Now files imported into Final Cut did not need rendering. But another problem became evident.
Whereas the ProRes 422 setting that came with Compressor in its summary page listed: "Width" and "Height" as "(100% of source)", the custom ProRes 422 (HQ) setting I'd just created has "Width" and "Height" as "320" and "240". In short the 19:9 aspect ratio of the original footage was lost. What I got both in the conversion and in Final Cut was a squished SD image.
I've played like heck with Compressor trying to see if there was some place I could get this custom version of ProRes to correspond to the aspect ratio seen in the Audio Pass-through version that came loaded in Compressor. No luck. All very mysterious.
My next step was to look to create another custom codec that would have the proper 1280 X 720 ratio. Turns out "HDV 720p 30fps" does, so now I've been converting to that. Looks fine in Final Cut - proper picture and sound.
I've been playing around a bit more and see now that I can create a custom setting using "Apple Intermediate Codec". I've tried it and it works too.
So after all this, my question: Should I be using that codec instead? Or does it really matter what codec I use for editing? Is the only real issue what codec I decide to use to output?
And while I'm at it: Does anybody have ideas why trying to create a custom setting with ProRes 422 (HQ) does not work - for my purposes at least.
I must admit this converting codecs is pretty new to me. Hopefully with time this experience will get easier and clearer.

Setting a Compressor ProRes Custom Setting:
1) Pick Apple ProRes 422...
2) Drag the PreRes 422 setting to the Bach Window. You can only make a custom setting from the Batch Window...
3) Select enable for the audio. Click on setting to make sure it is set right. Uncheck Allow Job Segmenting... Make sure Streaming is set to none*....
4) Select the Geomenty tab... Pick Custom (16:9):
5) Click Save As and name your custom setting...
6) You new custom setting will show up in the Custum folder for later use:
Another thing you can do is make Droplet of this custom setting. Menu... File... Create Droplet... Save the Droplet into a folder somewhere on your computer.
A Droplet will start the transcoding automatically. Drag the Droplet onto a video icon and let it do it's job.
* ProRes doesn't need the Fast Start setting. If this is set it will take almost twice as long to do the encoding. Same with Allow Job Segmenting using Qmaster.
I did the above on the fly and hope everything is clear for you to understand.

How can I use the color adjustments interface that shows up for camera RAW on jpeg files?

How can I use the color adjustments interface that shows up for camera raw on other files types? The HLS controls had the secondary color adjustments (6 colors instead of the 3). Plus, it had same vibrancy and a better Curves interface. Yesterday was the first time I imported raw into Photoshop CS5 and I got that really cool interface. What is that? Can I use that on other file formats?

Actually I am using the Tradional Chinese Version, when I try to edit the jpg file with camera raw, the system shows that there is no camera raw plug-in. The cmaera raw never work.

Auto Clearing of Customer Account with Special G/L W

Dear Experts,
Currently auto clearing of customer account with norm items is running smoothly.
When we tried to run the same for Special G/L Indicator "W' in F.13 tcode , it is not happening (Category 'W' special G/L transaction were
not selected).
Even we tried to change the rules in Ob74 but no luck.
We can do manual clearing through F-32 but the volume is very high on every day.
Since we considered Open PDC's is one of the criteria for credit control customer in our business and hence system is blocking
all customers where documents having special g/l w even though net amount is zero in fbl5n.
Could you please suggest me how to do auto clearing.
Regards
Shaik

Payment terms - selected customer

Hi Experts,
Payment Terms
Is it possible to define payment term for a selected customer(s) for a selected product,if possible, how to assign.
Vijay
Edited by: Vijay on Dec 22, 2007 4:36 PM
Edited by: Vijay on Dec 22, 2007 4:37 PM

Hi vijay,
1.first you create the payment term as required by u,
2. Maintain the customer master devision( product) wise and assign required payment term.
3. If you are not maintain the customer master devision wise assign the payment term at the time of sales order creation.
but one problem was there for payment terms, even if u maintain the customer master division wise with different payment terms, if u create the sales order with defferent materials, payment term will be picked the first line item related material.
solution for the above is create separate sales order for each product if u maintain the division wise customer master with different payment terms are assigned to the each division.
i think this may solve your problum, if u have any query let me know.
assign points if its useful.
regards
