Color Problem: Limited range of values.

My display does not show anything less than 15% of a given color (even black). My old G-4 Sawtooth with Radius 20/e monitor showed color values all the way down to 3% ...Is this a hardware/display thing, or would a calibration device help me expand the values seen?
Thanks!

Hi
I have looked into it. I am trying to do it programmatically, and also let me clarify the requirement.
The color should not change based on the slider value selection.The background color has to be already preset when the slider is invoked in a pop up.
Is it even possible to set different background colors on diffrent sections of the slider based on some logic derived from a VO.

Color space, gamma, and code value range data

Greetings!
I'm getting close to submitting my film for professional DCP creation. It's a ProRes 422 4096 by 1716, 2.39 - 1 file, created as a "master file" in a Premiere Pro CC export (the sequence being an "online" of sorts, built from SpeedGrade color-corrected DPX files).
The Guidelines for "Digital Cinema Source Delivery" require me to provide information about Color Space, Gamma, and Code Value Range Information (head vs full). Specifically, an order form asks for TRT, Color-Space, and Full or Head.
This is simply all Greek to me. I know my film looks gorgeous, and the rest of what I've told you, but that's the limit of my experience.
Can someone help me out? Specifics are preferred to broad strokes. Many thanks in advance.

This is probably too late now for you anyway but here is some extra information:
The "Digital Source Master" is the video footage before any D-Cinema formatting or encoding has been done.
It can be literally anything. The DCI specification did not specify this.
They did however specify exactly what the transcoded verison has to look like. The "D-Cinema Distribution Master" (16bit TIFF, XYZ)
So in other words, you need to tell your service provider:
The resolution, fileformat, frame rate and especially the colourspace that you used.
For example r709 for HD or any other RGB colourspace with applied gamma value (2.3 for example).

Is there a limited range for the Offset (Turbulence) attribute?

Hi. I'm animating the Offset (Turbulence) attribute of the Turbulent Displacement effect, having it increase over time through a 4 minute animation, and I'm finding that some of my layers end up not animating either at the start or the end of the animation, and I suspect it may be because the value is going outside of some limited range the attribute may have (on the negative and positive sides).
So, I'm wondering if the Offset (Turbulence) attribute (for both the Turbulent Displacement effect, and all other effects that have that attribute) does have a limited range it can't go beyond.
What is really strange is that before I render it, I do a preview, and it seemed fine throughout... but in the final render, some layers will stop (again, either at the start or end), but be animating through the rest of the animation.
One other theory (although one I really can't see being valid) is that it's a memory thing?... only because the preview shows it fine, but the full res, high quality render has it stopping.
I'm running CS5.5 on an i7 Win7 with 12 gigs of RAM.
I'm going to continue trying various starting points to see if I can get it to stay within the range (assuming there IS a limited range).
Any theories, info, suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Your syntax is sloppy. Conditionals' functions belong into sway braces and you need to provide a secondary fallback, if the condition is not met. In your case it simply takes time as the only variable/function and that condition is of course never met. That is also the problem for your subtraction - you are subtracting 20000 seconds, not frames. A code that at least works could look like that, though the actual result is pretty nonsensical and won't solve your issue, since there is no relation to the motion after you have evaluated the conditional:
temp = -2500 + time*300;
if (temp>25000)
{temp = time-framesToTime(20000);}
else
{temp=value[0];}
[temp,0]
Therefore something that is 100% watertight would have to be something like this:
if (time*300 > framesToTime(25000))
{temp = time-framesToTime(20000);}
else
{temp=time;}
out=temp*300;
[out,0]

Wireless connection with limited range

My ibook g4 has very limited range when using our wireless network. I'm able to connect to the wireless router when I am right next to it, but when I move away a bit, the connection drops down to 1 or 0 bars. I have another Dell laptop that connects to the network fine in other rooms throughout the house, so I'm assuming the router is fine and something is not setup right on the ibook? I have updated all of the software already, but that didn't solve the problem. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Hi,
Welcome to the Discussions.
That usually indicates an improperly attached antenna. It take considerable force to get the connector all the way in. This article illustrates a properly attached antenna. The AE card is located below the keyboard. Pull back on the latches next to F1 and F11 and lay the KB upside down on the track pad.

Photoshop - Motion - DVDSP Color Problem

This message is crossposted in the Motion Forum because I'm not sure where the solution is to be found...
I'm putting together a dvd and I wanted to create transition animations to go between the menus. I've run into a bit of a color problem, however. To explain:
I created my main menu as a layered photoshop document (8-bit RGB, NTSC colorspace). I brought that menu into Motion, preserving all layers. I animated those layers in motion so that at the end of the animation they were another menu on the dvd, then I exported the last frame of the animation, brought it back into photoshop, and made everything line up so that it precisely matched the final frame of the animation, then saved that PSD as a new layered document. Finally, in DVD Studio Pro, I brought in the two Menu PSDs and the animated transition.
The problem I'm running into is that the color on the transition animation is washed out and somewhat desaturated compared to the menu PSDs. Rather than the seamless transition from layered menu PSD to animation and back to layered menu PSD, you can see this altered color "pop" on the animation.
Here's what I've checked and tried:
-I've exported the motion project as every codec that made any kind of sense (Animation NTSC, Apple Pro Video NTSC, etc).
-I've brought the Motion project directly into DVD Studio Pro, rather than exporting it.
-Using the color inspector in both Photoshop and Motion, I can see that all RGB values match exactly as they should.
-When I exported a frame of the animation and brought it back into Photoshop to create the second layered menu, the color matched exactly. In fact, I did the alignment using the "difference" layer mode, and there was no color shift at all.
So... any ideas?
Also: I'm going from these layered menus to a video track (first frame matches the layered menu) to another layered menu (matching the final frame of the video track)... that is the most sensible way to have animated transitions between menus, right?
Thanks in advance for any insights.
-W

Well, I found a solution... DVDSP didn't like the image in NTSC, but it seems to work with Generic RGB, provided I redo all of the animation from scratch using the same Generic RGB PSDs. A bit of a pain, but I suppose that's why I did this test after completing only one of the many animations the project will demand.
Thanks everyone for the insights.

Check a range of values in the pai section of a dynpro

Hi,
I have a week timetable, and for each day the user has to introduce a range of hours. I need to control that the hours the user introduces is in a correct format (hh:mm).
I've seen that it's possible to set the valid range of values of an element using a field section on the dynpro's PAI (Input checks in the flow logic). Something like this:
chain
field: field1, field2, ...
values between 00:00 to 23:59
endchain
But I don't know how can I use this to set a range of values in the time format.
Is it possible?
thanks in advance

see you can create a module like the coding done inside of the form validate_time this.you can run this code to see if it solves your problem.
Report ZANID_TEST2 Message-ID ZM.
parameters: p_time(5).
start-of-selection.
perform validate_time.
*&      Form validate_time
form validate_time.
data: d_hours(2),
      d_minutes(2).
data: hours type i,
      minutes type i.
split p_time at ':' into d_hours d_minutes.
hours = d_hours.
minutes = d_minutes.
if hours > 24 or hours < 0.
    message e307 with 'Invalid Hour'.
endif.
if minutes > 60 or minutes < 0.
    message e307 with 'Invalid Minutes'.

Color problem in CS3

I recently had to replace my motherboard and video card (with identiacal cards). This may or may not be related to my problem.
My Photoshop installation now has a definate magenta cast. I am working in sRGB with my color settings set to North America General Purpose 2.
If I set my preview to "monitor" (Samsung SyncMaster 243T) the colors appear correct, but returning to the native program shifts by colors back to the extreme magenta shift.
I can also view the correct colors when using "Save for web or devices"
My monitor is calibrated and I can view images correctly outside of Photoshop.
Any suggestions?

Thank you both for your suggestions.
Just for fun, I recalibrated but got the same results.
However...
I am using a Radeon X800GT video card that has two ports. I had not set up the second monitor yet and didn't have it turned on. When I turned it on, I got the "subscript out of range" warning suggesting that I was trying to send a screen resolution that the monitor couldn't handle.
I used an ATI utility to reset the secondary monitor to the correct resolution. Then when I opened Photoshop, the colors were not correct!
Apparantely, there was a conflict in the video card that was spilling over to affect Photoshop.
Getting the screen resolutions happy on both of my monitors fixed the Photoshop color problem.
Thanks again.

Limited range on query filter

Hello,
This issue was reported by someone else in another threat, but it seems that no solution has been provided.
Re: details not appearing in the dropdown list in the filter window
The problem is that when you are trying to apply filters on a query, you are supposed to choose value from a drop down list, where only limited number of values can be selected from?
For instance, I queried everything from ORCT table, and wanted to filter the report by DocNo in order to get the records from No.550.
I clicked on the filter icon, and used Greater than condition, then opened up the drop down list ...
The list only showed No.1 - No.500. I guess 500 is the maximium number of records for filtering?
If the problem happens for everyone, is there a solution?
Many thanks
Kind regards,
Yang

Thank you Gordon.
That's my query
SELECT T2.[CounterRef] , T2.[DocNum] As 'Doc No', T2.[DocDate], T2.[DocDueDate], T2.[comments], T2.[CardCode], T2.[DocTotal], T0.[DocNum] As 'Invoice No', T0.[NumAtCard] AS 'BP ref on Inv.', T2.[OpenBal] As 'Amount paid to account'
FROM ORCT T2 left outer join (OINV T0 INNER JOIN RCT2 T1 ON T0.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry) ON T0.ReceiptNum = T2.DocEntry
Order by T2.[DocNum]

Need to change color of one column's value depending on the other column

Hi,
i have a search form which displays two column values
First column value's colour should be based on second column's value
For example, if second column has values 'Active', 'Inactive' and 'Pending'
If 'Active' , the first column value's color sholud be 'red'
If 'inacitve, another color ....
Thanks in advance,

Hi!
What we did was we added a column on the VO that returns kind of a css part (for example if a column value is 'Active' the value of this column should be "background-color:rgb(255,0,0);")
Than you use something like this on your column:
inlineStyle="#{row.StatusStyle}"where StatusStyle is the name of the column with "background-color:rgb(255,0,0);" value.
The problem here can be that the background color doesn't cover the whole column but only the text in it (so if it is null, the color is default).
If you want the whole column to be of this color you use something like this:
                                    <af:column ...>
                                      <afh:tableLayout ...>
                                        <afh:rowLayout ...>
                                          <afh:cellFormat inlineStyle="#{row.StatusStyle}" ...>
                                            <af:outputText ...>
                                            </af:outputText>
                                          </afh:cellFormat>
                                        </afh:rowLayout>
                                      </afh:tableLayout>
                                    </af:column>Basically you put another table layout inside a column instead just a outputText (or whatever control you use)
Hope this is understandable and it helps :)
It works for us.

How do I select a range of values in MySQL using a drop down menu

Hi,
I have a database of picture frames that have a value of
frame width. I want to be able to select a range of values (i.e.
.50" to 1") instead of each and every value (i.e. .50", .56", .76",
etc.). I have a drop down menu (mnuWidth) with 5 ranges (see
attached code).
Each selection has a value from 1 to 5 indicating the range I
want to search. In my results page I have let DW set up a recordset
(see attached code)
Can anyone tell me how to get this to choose a range instead
of just the value entered by my menu?
Thanks in advance.
Tom

I have been growing fond of lookup tables. Your lookup table would have your numbers in one column and the values you want returned in the next.
Lookup table
item
Name
1
a
2
b
3
c
4
d
5
e
6
f
7
g
8
h
9
i
Input table
input
Name
1
a
B2 and copied down:
LOOKUP(A2,lookup::$A$2:$A$11,lookup::$B$2:$B$11)
Caution: Lookup will return the closest value so it it looks for "10" in this example it will return "i"
If you don't want to see the error messages from blank inputs, wrap Lookup in IFERROR.
hope this helps

Hi Radhika,
Try using GET_RANGE_TABLE_OF_SEL_FIELD...
Please Refer below code..
   DATA: NODE_FLIGHTS TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_NODE.
DATA: RT_CARRID TYPE REF TO DATA.
DATA: ISFLIGHT TYPE TABLE OF SFLIGHT.
DATA: WSFLIGHT TYPE SFLIGHT.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <FS_CARRID> TYPE TABLE.
Retrieve the data from the select option
RT_CARRID = WD_THIS->M_HANDLER->GET_RANGE_TABLE_OF_SEL_FIELD( I_ID = 'S_CARR_ID' ).
Assign it to a field symbol
ASSIGN RT_CARRID->* TO <FS_CARRID>.
CLEAR ISFLIGHT. REFRESH ISFLIGHT.
SELECT * INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE ISFLIGHT FROM SFLIGHT
                       WHERE CARRID IN <FS_CARRID>.
NODE_FLIGHTS = WD_CONTEXT->GET_CHILD_NODE( NAME = `FLIGHTS` ).
NODE_FLIGHTS->BIND_ELEMENTS( ISFLIGHT ).
Thanks,

IMPORTING
    OUTPUT             = s_matnr
EXCEPTIONS
    LENGTH_ERROR       = 1
    OTHERS             = 2.
Can this work?
Thanks,
Debrup.

hi do like this...
loop at r_matnr .
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_INPUT'
EXPORTING
INPUT = r_matnr
IMPORTING
OUTPUT = v_matnr

Lightroom 4 color problem

I imported tiff images into Lightroom 4 that were scanned by DigMyPics.com. The color of the images look good on the Windows 7 photo viewer. It looks horrible in Lightroom 4. My monitor is callibrated, the import develope setting is set to "none" , the box is unchecked "apply auto tone adjustments". I think that the windows viewer is showing the accurate color of the scan and LR is not. I don't think DigMyPics would send this awful color. What could the issue be?

Yes, that certainly looks like a problem with the Lightroom rendering. Skin tones and red in general is clearly off, while Windows Photo Viewer looks good.
I'm almost certain this is a problem with the monitor profile. As troubleshooting, try to set sRGB as monitor profile (or Adobe RGB if your monitor is wide gamut), and see if the difference persists. But try to recalibrate first.
What calibrator and what monitor?

A color problem in Apple's publishing App

I was wondering if you could help me with this problem，I really need some help，and here it is：
There is a Color problem in Mac publishing applications like Pages and Keynote，including iBooks Author，which really confuse me a lot。
When you use a certain color space（sRGB IEC61966-2.1 in this case）to create some colors with Apps like Illustrator CS6，Indesign CS6 & Photoshop CS6 etc. ，they look totally fine。BUT when you use iBooks Author （V2.0）to create the very same color with the very same color space，colors still look fine in the color panel，and here comes the problem：they look totally lousy in the actual document！！In fact，they look much lighter and faded。（See Image 1&2）
Above：Image 1
Above：Image 2
And this is also terrible with photos you import。（See Image 3）
Above：Image 3
Please tell me what I can do to solve this problem。I know maybe this is some sort of “basic” and “general” knowledge，but I really need your help。And I can't thank you enough if you can provide some effective solutions。

As far as I can see, the colour pallet and how colours are seen in any app on YOUR machine will depend on the computers System Preferences>Displays>Colour - choose your preferred setting.
I suggest first that you ensure that your colour profile settings are the same ( as your computer) in whatever Adobe application or in fact any outside image processor you use.
Creating or using a colour profile in Adobe and having a different profile on your system - will tend to give different colour hues.
A point also to remember is whatever you set up and is transferred to your product... when seen on an iPad may well be totally different again due to peculiarities and contrast / brighness setting of the iPad user.

Color Problem: Limited range of values.
