Custom Shortcuts Question (Timeline Animation)

Using CS3, I'm working with some video in the Animation (Timeline) mode. Photoshop's default PLAY button within the timeline is the space bar. I've entered the custom keyboard shortcuts menu and cannot find the shortcut. Is there any way to change this shortcut? I'm huge on utilizing the hand while zoomed in on an image, and these two functions are causing me a great deal of mental anguish.
Thanks guys,
Josiah

With the Photoshop CS6 Timeline Palette you create a video or frame animation and I think what you want to do is to create a frame animation not a video. Perhaps a video would be possible if you have the frame layers. Either way I think a simple action would be very useful in the process.
You could create an action that would dupe the current layer and rotate the new layer 10 degrees. After recording that action record a second action that plays the first action 35 times open the timeline palette use its the pull-down menu to select frame animation then click on that frame animation button to create a frame animation use the timeline palette's fly-out menu and select make frames from layers. Then use save for web and devices to save an animated gif.
Is CS6 what ypu ment with CS5+ ???

Photoshop CC: Layer Merging Behavior with Timeline Animations (Bug?)

Hello,
we're working a lot with the Photoshop timeline in our company. After upgrading to Photoshop CC we encountered a behavior that was different with CS6.
Picture a file with a timeline animation consisting for example of 8 frames, with 8 layers, each layer's visibility exposed on a single frame (layer 1 exposed in frame 1, layer 2 exposed in frame 2 etc) and all other layer not visible.
In Photoshop CS6, if I were to create a new layer for example in frame 4 of my timeline above layer 4 (which is the only visible layer in this frame) and merged it back down onto layer 4 (by selecting it and pressing the shortcut CTRL+E), the resulting layer inherited all the exposure settings of layer 4, but did contain the merged visual content of layer 4 and the previously new layer above it. This is what I want.
Now in Photoshop CC, when doing the very same action, the layers are merged and keep the naming of layer 4, however the visibility flag is not inherited properly. The resulting layer is exposed (visible) on all frames in the timeline, whereas it actually should only be exposed in frame 4.
Also note that the timeline option "New layers visible in all frames" is deactivated. So even if Photoshop treated the merged layer as an actual new layer, it shouldn't expose it's visibility in all other frames.
The only workaround I've found so far is enabling "unify layer visibility", hiding the layer, then disabling "unify layer visibility" again. This is annoying however, and the entire new behavior seems like a bug to me. Can any of the developers comment on this? Thank you.
Regards,
Hannes Drexl

My only solution so far is to avoid using CC and sticking with CS6. Thanks Adobe for not letting me enjoy the other great features of the PS version you seem to care about updating and improving. Since PS is the main reason I even subscribed to creative cloud, it would be nice to at least know this problem is being resolved in the future.

CS4: Disable Spacebar Shortcut for Timeline/Frame Playback?

I am currently making an animation using Frames (Window > Animation, and setting it to Frames instead of Timeline), and I often use Spacebar + drag to pan across the canvas. However, quickly pressing Spacebar plays the animation... Is there any way to disable this feature?
I tried looking in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts > Panel Menus > Animation (Frames/Timeline), but all of the shortcuts are blank and there doesn't even seem to be an option for anything like "Play Animation."

Hi there -
If you go to Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts, and select "Panel Menus" from the "Shortcuts For" dropdown menu, you can set (or change) shortcuts for the Timeline panel.
**EDIT: Couldn't seem to find the spacebar shortcut for play/stop in this menu...still trying to find a solution for you. Alternatively, you can uncheck Enable Timeline Shortcuts Keys from the Timeline panel to disable the shortcuts.

Is there a way to create a custom shortcut key to paste my email address? I would like to be able to press a key combination that will paste whatever I set it to, i.e. my email address.

There are multiple ways to do similar things. One, built into the system, is to use text replacement. See:
http://www.tuaw.com/2009/12/31/mac-101-making-text-replacement-work/
There are other programs you can buy that can do the job in different ways, such as TextExpander. You could also just create a clipping file by dragging your e-mail address to somewhere like the desktop, and then you can simply drag that file to wherever you like to insert your e-mail address there.

Not able to set custom shortcut for increase/decrease brush size in Photoshop CC 2014 on Win 8

I am using Windows 8 and PS CC2014 and the issue is that I can't assign custom shortcut to the dot. I have been using , and . as decreasing and increasing brush size and it has worked well in every photoshop, even cc2014 in win7 but not in win8 it seems. It lets me to change the , and just tells me that it is in use in somewhere else but i can still change it. But I can't do the same with . as it complains it being used by an application although I have cleared that from the original place and left it empty, photoshop still recognizes it if I press it although it would be empty but I can't assign that key to anything else either.
Small thing but drives me crazy as I had to assign it to another keys and I am using the shortcuts from muscle memory mostly and end up changing the brush when I had an intention to increase the size. I tried to google this but couldn't find anything similar solution.

I didn't manage to get it to work :c Restart won't do anything and I tried to reset the preferences by deleting manually the file with keyboard shortcuts. I managed to get them to the factory settings but that was about it. Everytime I try to assign "." to somewhere (including to the place where it already is), it gives the red x and says "the shortcut is not valid. It is being used by another application." (not sure what it is in english exactly, I happen to have my PS in finnish unfortunately ). Plugin disabled mode did nothing either.
I have changed that shortcut many times to different versions earlier and this is first time I see that message or am not being able to change the shortcut. And I installed the photoshop yesterday from fresh and first thing I did was making the shortcuts and it gave the error from the first use.

Any way to link a controls' custom shortcut menu to a new .rtm file?

My project programmatically generates controls from a template. The template has a custom shortcut menu that is saved in the project directory, and the generated controls all work fine with this. However, now I need to be able to export the project to other directories/machines, and so now the generated controls can no longer 'find' the .rtm shortcut file, despite it being in the same folder as the control. This means if I want to be able to use the menu I have to open every generated control (which there can be hundreds of) and right-click -> advanced -> run-time shortcut menu -> and then reopen the file.
Is there any way to programmatically link a controls' shortcut menu to a new .rtm file, or is there any way to set a controls' custom shortcut file as a relative path instead of an absolute one?
Cheers

Many people can solve their problems with the 20 page limit using custom components. You should check out this thread
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2500263#2500263
It is possible to use the onClick -> go to State and set states on a custom component or any of its subcomponents.
Catalyst does not currently support linking to a local files.

Project Management Question - timelines for Production system deployment

Hi
I need an expert advice on setting up timelines for establishing an Oracle Apps Production environment. We are implementing Oracle HR & Payroll at an organization.
Our system architecture is a 2-node application tier and 2-node DB tier (RAC). RAC is configured by another party and we only have to prepare the application tier (2 nodes)
We would be installing Oracle Apps R11i (11.5.10) with jserv load balancing on the 2-nodes
Can anyone suggest how much time this should take to install/configure & patching of the application tier (on 2 nodes)?
Regards
Saira

Converting timeline animations into .swf??

Hello all,
In CS3 I was able to export animations into .SWF files but with CS6 I cant seem to find out how to do this? The only option is .MP4 via File>Export>Render Video but thats no good to me. I've searched high and low for this answer but have come up with nothing!
Any suggestions? It needs to be SWF. I've tried to convert MP4 into SWF using a 3rd party software but the quality was shocking and I'm unsure what settings to use for the original animation and also for the converting! Doing it with CS6 is much prefered if possible!
Thanks in advance

To my knowledge, you cannot do this in Photoshop CS6. Check out this help document, Creating Timeline Animation (Photoshop Extended).
Do you have Flash or After Effects?
Cheers,
Michael

Flash CS6 as3 Navigate to URL stops timeline animation!

Hello
I'm hoping someone can help me out! I'm quite new to flash but slowly getting the hang of it. I'm trying to make an interactive banner using jpegs converted to buttons etc with type, all animated. I've got separate layers for everything including mask layers and actions. I just want to navigate on a top layer which is invisible to take the user to a new URL. Everything is working great until I put more than one URL link in the code, as soon as I do the whole banner animation stops!!
If someone could suggest a few ideas it would be much appreciated as I'm all out?!
Many thanks,
here's the code:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btn1Click_1);
btn2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btn2Click_2);
function btn1Click_1(event: MouseEvent): void
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.google.com"), "_self");
function btn2Click_2(event:MouseEvent):void
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.youtube.com"), "_self");
addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, mo);
function mo (event:MouseEvent):void
event.currentTarget.stop();
function mo2 (event:MouseEvent):void
event.currentTarget.play();
} addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, mo2);

Thanks Ned and moccamaximum for the replies.
The last bit of code does apply to the whole timeline as it stops the animation with a Mouse Over/Roll Over. Taking this away has no effect on the animation in the timeline. The only thing that seems to stop the timeline animation is the second button URL request!
btn2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btn2Click_2);
and:
function btn2Click_2(event:MouseEvent):void
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.youtube.com"), "_self");
Works perfectly without this command. I don't get it!

BUG: CS6 Custom Shortcuts config file UTF8 entity encoding

When saving custom shortcuts with this "Cmd+<" or "Cmd+Opt+<" Photoshop saves it. I can Use it. Everything Work.
After restarting photoshop, shortcuts not work. Only these two, other work fine.
This is shortcut after photoshop restarting. (where is: "Cmd+<" or "Cmd+Opt+<")
Probably there is bug in UTF8 entity parsing from shortcuts config.
It cant read entities. But can save them.
This is in confign file
Using CDATA or replacing "<" entity by ">". In both cases photoshop returns error in conf file.
Tested on: MBP 2009, OSX Lion 1.7.3, czech keyboard

Flash Timeline Animation to Edge Animate CC?

I have a client with an old Flash CS4 Presentation file that uses Forms and Slides and they want to update their presentation to HTML. I am not concerned about the presentation functionality or shell as my developer will create a new one... But, the presentation contains a bunch of timeline animations that demo their product.
I don't want to export the animations out using the Canvas tag, or as a movie or image sequence.
I am new to Edge, but I am thinking this is the solution for the animations.
Is there a way to export/import these Flash timeline animations into Edge? Or even, at the very least, import the assets into Edge?
Thanks,
Carol

What kind of animations do you have? If you have scenes in Flash you can reproduce that in Edge Animate with symbols. For small animations like a runner for example you can create a spritesheet with Flash and use it in Animate. You will have to use the clip tool and display on/off to set it up. Rigth now it takes several tools to go from Flash to Animate but Animate is quite adequate to reproduce what was done in Flash.

Convert To Timeline Animation Button doesnt appear.

Convert To Timeline Animation Button doesnt appear and its driving me crazy.

Timeline animation is only available for Photoshop Extended. You don't have Extended so you don't get to make timeline animations
