Creating Loadable Preset Settings

Hi,
I am trying to create loadable preset settings for my controls. I wasn't sure of the best method so I started by allowing the user to save the preset as a text file. The problem I am having is how to load the presets from the text file. I was thinking that I could try Read from Spreadsheet, but a few problems/questions arise from that.
Problem #1: My text file has two columns. For the sake of aesthetics I made it so the data of each column was perfectly aligned (Column 1 contains the name of the control and Column 2 contains the value of that control). This leaves me with instances where different amounts of space exist between elements in the same row. I am not sure how to parse the data in each row. The easiest way I can see would be if i could have an offset per line since my control values are all the same length from the start of the line. I can't figure out how to implement it, if it is even possible.
Problem #2: If I manage to parse the data in the rows properly, I would be left with an array of control values. How would I go about loading those values into the controls of the VI. I am not sure how I would do that from an array.
I have attached a text file with the formatting I described above to give some reference. The file contains channel names with "inactive" next to them. Those are supposed to correspond with 0's, which I figured I could convert to numbers before they were loaded into the proper boolean controls.
Thanks
Solved!

Hi Tom,
Thanks for the response. I checked out the library and it was pretty helpful. I ended up figuring out a solution that didn't come directly from the library due to my curiosity. It is able to read in my files and load the presets to controls. Thanks for your suggestion! I attached the VI I made in case anyone stumbles upon this thread with the same problem I had.
Thanks!

Can I import (or create) default Lightroom settings from an existing document?

Can I import (or create) default Lightroom settings from an existing document and save them? Make them a personal default set opening with all future LR catalogs?

Thank you, John. That brings up the question: How to build a template?
BTW, I'm not trying to duplicate a catalog; moving it to a larger drive. When opening the newly moved catalog in LR, my former settings (identity plate, defaults, etc.) didn't migrate, though I copied the LR settings folder and its contents into the new location (drive) and opened my develop presets.

In lightroom, is there a way to create a preset where a brush is automatically run?

In lightroom, is there a way to create a preset where a brush is automatically run? Example: If I make multiple different brush adjustments on an image, and I want the exact same edit on another image, can I create a preset for that?

Hi Heather,
Lr does not (natively) support saving brushes in presets, but it's a UI limitation, not an "under the hood" problem.
You can add brush strokes (or spot removals, or .. ) to a preset using a script I wrote (and offer for free), called
'Add Spots Or Paint To Preset'

Is there a way on how to create different Synch settings for iPhone / iPad

Okay,
My first time in this forum. I have an iPad and an iPhone. Everytime I sync my iPad and my iPhone with iTunes the sync settings are the same in both devices. So everytime I sync devices Apps that I have in my iPad show up in iPhone and vice versa. Is there a way to create different sync settings for my iphone and iPad?. Basically I do not want Apps from my iPads to be synched with iPhone and Apps that I have in my iPhone to be synched with my iPad. It is kind of annoying that everytime I synch I have to remove apps from my iPhone.
Can I also do the same for playlists?

Each device has its own set of sync preferences. What you may be seeing is the result of the Automatically sync new Apps option listed underneath the list of apps on the Apps tab. Untick this for each device next time you sync and then purchases made on one device won't automatically turn up on the other. You shoud also make sure automatic downloads are disabled in Settings > iTunes & App Stores.

Create a preset in lua module

I want to experiment with applying develop adjustments from a plug-in. noticed the photo:applyDevelopPreset( preset, plugin ) function.
Question:
Is there a way to create a preset on the fly within the plug-in, for example a preset for setting the Exposure2012 to +10.
A little piece of code would be appreciated much!

If you were expecting catalog to be available upon return from the function posted - it won't be: function's locals are out of scope in context external to the function where they're declared, so catalog will be expected in the global environment instead (everywhere but inside that function), but it's not - thus the error, probably.
-- in other words:
local catalog
local function yada()
catalog = LrApplication.activeCatalog()
end
yada()
LrDialogs.message( tostring( catalog ) )
-- works, whereas
local function yada()
local catalog = LrApplication.activeCatalog()
end
yada()
LrDialogs.message( tostring( catalog ) )
-- will give the error you're getting
Either that, or there was a typo somewhere...
PS - you may want to spend some more time reading that lua manual .

Presets settings

I am a bit frustrated with Presets.
I have created a Preset named " Identity and copyright". I want to use this Preset during importing all images. However, I'm having some confusion in the Metadata section while in the Library module on the Right Panel.
There is a pull down menu next to Metadata. It shows several choices like Default, minimal,IPTC, etc. Which is the most practical choice? Minimal, Default? Right below there is another field with a pull down menu. I am trying to select my Preset named "Identity and Copyright" but somehow LR won't let me select it and it goes by default to "None".
What am I doing wrong?

First of all, thanks a lot for sending a detailed reply. Ah what a relief to
hear that.
*The preset during IMPORT is the one that sets the data in all of the files
during import, to the same value.*
So if that is the case, then why do they have the pull down menu in the
Preset field? I can see the name of my Identity, edit preset, but can't make
a selection to stay put.
*Don't worry about while type of meta-data to show (default, minimal, etc)
during import*
I figured that out I have it set now at "minimal" and this menu is very
fluid and responsive. However, the one that I'm having some confusion is the
Preset menu. Why have the pull down menu when I can't change it. It looks
like "none" is the default. Am I right ?
Then to import you select that preset
So far I have only created one Preset, the identity copyright one. Can you
tell me one more time how do I select a preset after being saved?
At this time, I'm not creating any presets just adding keywords as I do my
imports, but I'm sure in the future I will be using this feature

How do I create password presets in Acrobat X?

I did it in 9 but with the drastic changes made in X, I am still having a hard time finding everything. In 9, I created a preset that would automatically put a password and watermark onto my PDF. How do I do this in X?

The menu item still exist, but is not displayed, but the items on the menu should still be available to JS. You can use the 'exeMenuItem' to run the item to run the hidden item.
You will see the missing executable menu items if you use JS to crate a list of menu items. This will show the menu items that have not been moved to the Tool Well.

Import, Export and Preset settings from TimeMachine

I'd like to recover only my Import, Export and Preset settings of Aperture 3.0 from my backup disk using TimeMachine. Can someone pls guide me on what files to look for and where to find them? (I just reformatted my MBP and hence this query).
Thanks in advance.

You will find the setting in your User Library in the folder
Your Home Directory > Library > Application Support > Aperture
Everything with "preset" in its name might be interesting to you.
Reveal the User Library by going to the Finder main menu bar, select "Go" and hold down the "option" key, until you see the Library in the drop down menu. Select it.
In the Library Finder window navigate to the "Application Support" folder, then "Aperture".
Drag the Aperture folder to the Finder Sidebar for easy access, then open Time Machine.
Go back in Time to the time you want to restore from, then restore the "Aperture Folder" to your Desktop and copy the files you need to your Library.

How to change Preset settings (CS4)

Hello everyone,
I'm going to make a video with Adobe Premiere CS4 and I need to know how to change Preset settings or however it is called, because I think none of the Presets match with my videos (tried some and my videos were bigger or smaller).
My videos are .mov, 800x600, made and rendered in Autodesk 3ds Studio Max 2010 (3D Program).
Could someone please help me? I don't know if there's a preset for me or if I have to change settings or something like that (and where). Yes, I'm new! I'm from Spain if you need it.
Feel free to ask anything you need, of course.
Thanks in advance,
Marta

Marta,
Welcome to the forum.
In CS4 and CS5, one can set the Preset at the Sequence level. Before, it was more global, at the Project level.
In Sequence New, you will choose the Desktop Preset, and then you can alter almost every displayed attribute, such as Frame Size, or Frame Rate, etc. you want to match your Sequence to your source footage 100%. After editing with those attributes matching, you can then Export to a desired output setting with AME (Adobe Media Encoder). You choice of Desktop, allows you to customize the settings to match. I wish that Adobe had named it "Custom," as the term "Desktop" is a bit abstract, though it has been around for a very long time.
Good luck, and do match your Sequence settings (Desktop) to your source footage.

Cannot create new presets in AME CC 2014

Whenever I go into AME CC 2014 and try and create a new preset, this is what I see: Strange Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014 Bug - YouTube.
Also, whenever I quit AME, even when it's running idle, just sitting there not doing anything, I always get the unexpectedly quit error message: Screenshot on 2014-07-30 at 02:24:31.png • Droplr Every single time I quit AME I get that, no matter what – super strange.
I transcode my DSLR and AVCHD media via AME (well, I used to, that is) and now I'm kind of stuck. Without creating a preset first in AME, you can't choose ProRes or any other custom codec from Prelude's transcode codec drop-down menu as it pulls directly from AME.
Anyway, that's beside the point. Anyone know how to fix the issue I'm seeing demonstrated in the video screen grab above? I've tried clearing prefs, and fresh re-installing AME CC 2014 – all to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated – thanks!

Yes, AME was working properly before. It seems to have happened after I installed the very latest update to AMECC14, however. I'm not sure if that's what did it in though.
This is what I'm seeing – "Presets" isn't even a folder, it is an alias file. Could that be my problem? Will AME re-create those files if I just erase all of the "8.0" folder's contents and re-launch AME? I'm confused, because I assumed uninstalling AMECC14 and doing a fresh re-install would do the trick, but maybe not.
Here are my Adobe folder permissions, Adobe Media Encoder folder's permissions, and the 8.0 folder's permissions. I am seeing Read & Write permissions for my username, but for "everyone" it says "Read Only" – could that be an issue as well?
Thanks so much for your help MMeguro!

Adobe Master Collection 5.5, method of extracting all the presets, settings, etc. from every progra

Is there an automatic method of extracting all the presets, settings, etc. from every program in the Adobe Master Collection 5.5?
I am about to regenerate my Operating System Partitions from scratch & do not want to go through setting up each & every program in the master collection by hand.

Adobe does have some pages documenting where it keeps preference et. al. files. For example, this one for Photoshop CS5:
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/preference-file-functions-names-locations.html
I do know that overlaying the contents of the Adobe Photoshop CS5 Settings folder does restore most of the preferences. The Color Settings are in a file called Color Settings.csf in another folder (depending on OS). What I don't know is whether there are paths in those files that will differ depending on how you reinstall your system.
You'll want to reinstall all your plug-ins again, much the same as when you reinstall Photoshop. But you can make a copy of your Plug-ins subfolders from your 32 and 64 bit Photoshop installation areas just for good measure, to make sure you don't forget some of them.
As for other programs in the suite... You'll have to look for that info separately.

FCP export to .flv preset settings for web?

I'm building my web site in Flash and am desperately trying to find the right preset settings to compress my videos in Final Cut Pro 4.5 to play without pixilation in the new Flash Video Player (.flv)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
kalen.

Hello there Kalen!
I have found that Cleaner does a good job of compressing .flv files. Just export to Quicktime and then drag that into cleaner and tweek your settings in there. There are many options available depending on size, bit rate etc... Check it out: http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?id=5562025&siteID=123112
Hope that helps!

Re compressor p24 p25 p30 preset settings.

Hi all...
I decided to try this formum as it is compressor related.. and someone might know the answer here.
I decided to try and make things simple and use the same preset for the DVC PRO HD, on both Motion and Fcp, I am using 23.98 frames a second preset.
However in FCP this comes up with compressor p30 in the audio/video preset settings. ( even when at 23.98 in DVC PRO HD 1080p24... is this a mistake?)
In QT conversion there is only p24 and p30... In motion export p25 and p30.
Does this make much difference?
Should I make my project p30 and rebuild, because that is the only "common" compressor setting. I need these programmes to work well together without round-tripping.
Thanks for your time.

Russ,
I switched the Padding setting back to: "Preserve source aspect ratio" and it worked this time. It was probably the first thing I tried without success, but it's fine now.
I did notice that after numerous export tests that the final quality when viewed in Quicktime was slightly different when I used the padding vs. having the padding and Filter Letterbox settings both on. Oddly enough, it seemed a bit better when using both. This could just be a bit of randomness in that every single export will be of slightly different quality, but it is easy to see a difference when you take an exported screen capture at 640x360 and view in full screen mode. Anyway, I guess it's all working now.
Thanks,
Dave
P.S. I'll check back on this thread later in case you have anything to add.

Is There A Way To Create Custom Presets For Sharing/Exporting?

First-time iMovie users, long-time Mac enthusiast.
VERY impressed with how easy this wonderful application is to learn, but the inability to save custom presets exporting to Quicktime is puzzling.
iMovie6 does remember the settings I specified in "Expert Settings", but it'd be great to save it as "canned preset" that would show up w/all the other ones (Email, CD-Rom, Web, etc).
Is this just another feature I've yet to discover, or is it possible at all? Or is it the first roadblock I've encountered where extra ca$h is needed for another product?
many thank u's in advance.

.. the key to using a Mac is to think less..
this is EXACTLY the Mac-experience.. and that is, why PCusers often call us "computer illiterate" .. we don't want to know, what a bios is, a batch file, a bitrate..
my father-in-law spends 90% of his time with re-installs, set-ups, drivers.. and in the meantime, I create movies and dvds ...
maybe a bit of TOO much glory, but still saying it all:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=No1MxAnHuJM
come back here often, share your experiences, dare to ask any question.. there's no dumb question, just dumb answers
have fun with iM and your Mac ...
