Color wheel settings "jump" after making adjustments - can anyone reproduce?

Hi,
Been noticing something very odd with Speedgrade lately, and I'm pretty sure it never happened with any of the earlier versions:
Making a large color adjustment to a clip using my Tangent CP200 panel (say, pushing the marker towards where the color ring begins), and then leaving the tab by switching to another layer, clip or even just shadows/midtones/highlights, will result in the marker having jumped MUCH further in the same direction. So if I had pushed it towards cyan on the inner edge of the color ring, the marker will suddenly find itself near the outer edge - however, the color will be unaffected until I actually move the marker again.
At first I assumed this was due to the CP200, but it also happens with the panel unplugged and using the mouse to drag the marker. It happens consistently and seems to scale linearly with the displacement. I'm assuming that Speedgrade is "misremembering" the position of the trackball or the virtual trackball marker, not the actual color settings. This is consistent with the fact that the same effect does not occur when using slider (mouse) or editboxes (keyboard) modes UNLESS I touch the CP200. At the same time, it seems to be related to Speedgrade and not to the panel, because the effect is dependent on the number of pixels the marker is moved on the screen, not the distance traveled by the physical trackballs. It also happens both in DirectLink and standard modes.
I've tried all the related settings, but nothing seems to apply. If this is a bug, it's pretty serious, as it makes going back for "minor adjustments" very problematic. Can anyone reproduce this, with or without a CP200?

Having participated near daily on this forum for a couple years now, this isn't a common issue but it does happen. Please file a bug report (they do actually quantify these for choosing what to budget fixing time allocations on) ...

Sometimes it's been (as for you) during someone using a surface, there's been problems with Wacom tablets having this issue also, and a few people with (as I have) a Kensington track-ball they use for working the wheels. In fact, it's much more likely with a Wacom especially using the pen tool than any other input device, I think. I've never really noted if my Wacom has this issue because of the way I use my tools ... I'm a lefty, so the pen-tab is on my right, keyboard in center, Kensington "Expert Mouse" 2" trackball with surrounding ring & four large paddle-style buttons on the right. That trackball/ring gets all my color-wheel work. It was occasionally glitchy back in the CS6 release and to the dot-upgrade to the first CC release, but has been pretty stable since. I've had to re-adjust the sensitivity of the controls in Sg for every release, however.

  • Aperture 3 freezing up after making adjustments.

    Endless(30-45 minutes)loading/processing after making adjustments to a photo. 'Quit Aperture' was not an available option so I 'Force Quit.' When I reopened the App, it was still doing the same thing. Next, I tried 'Force Quit' AND shut down my system. When I started it up again and reopened the App, still no change. That is about all I know to do; yep, sad but true.  Any advice? I sure would appreciate it! 

    I think this sounds like a problem I had with a corrupted image. Corrupted images happened to me when my iMac was turned off inadvertly when importing pics.
    You can read on my blog how I resolved my issue. Hope it helps.

  • My ipod 60gb classic is showing as fully charged until I connect it to my pc when it comes up with the error message, 'please wait very low battery' and the little wheel goes round and nothing happens, can anyone explain why this is and what i can do?

    My ipod 60gb classic is showing as fully charged until I connect it to my pc when it comes up with the error message, 'please wait very low battery' and the little wheel goes round and nothing happens, can anyone explain why this is and what i can do?

    I have worked my way through the assistant and nothing works. I have tried connecting in disc mode but although the screen on the ipod is showing that the device is charged and that it is in disc mode as soon as I connect it to the computer it comes up with the error message 'please wait very low battery' and stays like that until I disconnect when it appears to be OK again. I have tried on both pc and mac.
    BTW the ipod is an ipod video not classic if that makes any difference.
    Thanks

  • PIcture goes black after making adjustments...Why?

    I was using the repair tool to remove something from an image and my entire image went to black. Now its still there as a thumbnail but when I bring it up large on my screen, its a big black screen. Why is it doing this and how do I correct this? I noticed this a lot when I first started using Aperture and never figured out how to fix the issue other than clicking UNDO a few times and then I would see my picture again but that doesn't solve the issue if I need to edit the image!
    thanks!
    By the way there is nothing showing in my Histogram either which is VERY STRANGE!!! Correction when I click on a slider, I do see the levels in my histogram but once I release the mouse from the slider, it goes empty and my image remains black.

    This has happened to me as well. "Something" has corrupted my library. I have had to repair and rebuild my database several times. The "picture goes black" was a symptom. Shortly after that the color wheel started and Aperture crashed. Had to "force quit", then repair/rebuild.
    My guess is there is a corrupt picture. If I could determine which one and remove it, I would.
    I never had this problem until upgrading to version 3. I'm current with Snow Leopard and Aperture.
    Never thought I would see an Apple Application crash as often as a Windows application.

  • Why does the color wheel come up when I   I can't get rid of it.

    Why does the color wheel come up when I try to open an email? I can't get rid of it unless I sign in again!

    The spinning beach ball of death (SBBOD) can be caused by many things. Common causes are not enough RAM, insufficient HD space or another process using a lot of the CPU's power. You can open Activity Monitor (Applications - Utilities - Activity Monitor) for many things including the %CPU column to see if there is an app using a large %CPU. Also click the System Memory tab and see how much FREE RAM it shows. As a general rule your system should have 500MB or more available.
    Finally I'd recommend reading and using the Spinning Beach Ball of Death article for additonal troubleshooting steps.

  • TS3406 My IPhone4 will make calls - they can hear me bu I CANNOT HEAR THEM!! This has only just started happening, I have checked settings but all seems OK can anyone help please

    MY IPHONE 4 which has been working perfectly well has developed a fault on calls.
    It will make calls OK and they can hear me perfectly but I CANNOT HEAR THEM AT ALL.
    I have checked all the settings and cannot see anything wrong, can anyone help please!!

    Thanks for answering me. I tried what the help page said but still no luck. My son jut told me that his phone (same as mine) did the same thing and then resolved a little while later. I guess I might just have to wait and see.

  • TS3992 My iPad is stuck on message "not enough storage" I've bought more iCloud space, but my device is still stuck on the message and wont respond to the Close or Settings on the touchscreen!  Can anyone help?

    My iPad is stuck on message "not enough storage", and does not respond to touchscreen Close or Settings.  I've bought more iCloud space and tried to get to Settings again to see if I can resume a backup, but no luck.  I'm still in the same boat. Cannot even power off the iPad!!  Can anyone out there help?  I deleted the Backup off the icloud via my PC and hoped this would start off a new one!

    iCloud storage will not help you with your problem. You need to remove data from the iPad to make more room on your iPad available.

  • LR 2.3 applies a green tint to RAW image AFTER making adjustments

    Hi all,
    Thanks for having this great forum, it looks like there is some great information here. I clicked around the LR threads and the FAQ but I haven't found anything applying particularly to my issue/question, though, and I'm hoping some of you can help me understand what is going on. .
    I have read about LR changing the colorcast on import, however in my case the images look fine after importing and processing. When I click BACK to an image that I have already processed, I am seeing LR 2.3 apply a green tint to it, and I have no idea why.
    What I am doing:
    -Import Canon RAW files into LR collection (images look fine, no abnormal colorcast)
    Develop tab:
    -I can click around the collection and view the images without any colors changing
    -Process an image to my heart's content (image color still looks fine)
    -Click to the next image and process the next one
    -Mouse-over on the previously processed image on the bottom filmstrip, and preview shows up on the Navigator pane (preview looks as the image was edited previously)
    -if I click to a previously processed image in the filmstrip, it will load into the center pane
         -while the processed image loads here, the green tint gets applied to the image
    -Color tint/green saturation has not moved from its previous position (even if it was moved during initial processing)
    -In order to correct it, I either have to adjust the color tint slider about 20 points away from green, or dial down the green saturation to compensate.
    Once I re-correct the image, I can click back to it again, and the mysterious green tint will no longer re-apply itself on this image.
    This happens to most if not all of the images in the collection. I have only processed one other RAW collection in LR, but I did not have this issue.
    I dont know what exactly is being changed to result in this green tint applying on its own, so I'm not sure if the adjustments I'm making are correcting it.fully.
    I hope I'm detailed enough in explaining what I'm seeing, and that it makes some kind of sense.
    Does anyone know what is going on here?
    Thank you!

    Hi John, thanks for the reply.
    Thanks, I'll look into the preferences in LR, although everything has remained mostly in its default settings. I've loaded JPG collections without seeing this either.
    Would monitor profiles matter in my case? I ask because I am simply clicking back to a previous picture in the strip. When I leave the picture it looks fine, and returning to it shows that image but with the green tint. I haven't gotten to the point of exporting/converting the image, or anything further.
    Some more information if it helps:
    Using MS Vista
    Using Canon Rebel XTi 400D
    I copy only the raw files from the memory card to a folder, and then point the LR Import to that folder.
    I will try replicating the issue on another computer in hopes to narrow it down. I am baffled.

  • Photoshop CS4 no display preview for Smart Sharpen after making adjustments

    I just upgraded to Photoshop CS4 which seems to work fine except for the preview window in Smart Sharpen and Unsharp Mask. I get a preview display when using the sharping tools after I open a photo but if I make adjustments such as Levels or Curves the preview window is blank. It's recommended to sharpen a photo after all other adjustments and effects are applied. I can't see how sharp I'm making the image and if I'm getting any noise. Adobe said it was a problem with the driver with the graphics card and to call apple for an update. Apple says it doesn't have an update. Does anyone know a work around? Adobe had me throw away preferences and uncheck open GL. Neither worked.

  • Aperture 3.2.1 still issues with sorting images in albums, after making adjustments, cannot use arrow keys to go to next image. straightening tool auto turns image prior to straightening inconsistantly

    Have updated aperture to 3.2.1, still having some issues during editing images.
    1. Basic item is sorting images does not happen correctly, move some images in file, they don't move correctly, after trying to move several, then they almost randomly move around.
    2. Straightening tool will automatically tilt images as soon as you touch the tool, turns them on about a 30 degree angle clockwise.
    3. Arrows on right side of keyboard used to move images in browser from the editing position, they move them if no editing is done, once you edit an image, cannot move to the next image using the arrow keys.
    tks, gmoney in ladner

    Oh, baby! This bad boy flies!! Here's what to expect:
    I had 40,000 images in Aperture 3 and it was dog slow at everything. I installed 3.1 update today. It took 5 minutes to update the database and then behaved marginally better than before at ASIC library navigation. I was disappointed.
    Then I QUIT the app. It took a couple of hours to "update files for sharing" with a counter that went to 110,000 images. So it must have updated every thumbnail and variation of preview. Turned it back on , and BAM. Came up fully in seconds. Paused for 10 seconds ten everything was lickrty split. For the first time ever, I can use the Projects view with all 791 projects and scroll quickly. I even put it in photos modevand whipped thru all 49,000 images!
    Haven't done anybprocessing yet, but i'm liking it!!

  • I am having problems with iChat after installing Lion, can anyone help?

    I installed Lion this week after I installed everything seemed to be working great. However, if I open iChat and then log in and log out it will not let me log back into iChat

    Try logging on to AIM on port 443 rather than port 5190.
    Go to IChat in the menu bar > Preferences > Accounts.
    Log out of AIM and then use the Server Settings tab
    Set the port to 443(press return/enter(you might have to tick and untick SSL for 443 to stick)).
    Log back in again.
