Custom XMP palette in PSD...is it even possible?
Hi all,
I currently use DAM software that writes custom XMP info which I can see in the File Info dialog in PSD. I would like to see this info (read only) while I am working in PhotoShop. This custom XMP has instructions on what to do to the PSD file. In my perfect world it would be a floating palette in PSD that would show the XMP.
Stuck and would appreciate any expertise you might pass my way.
Thanks,
Lee

Not any more.
I just create a VI, "Drop VI.vi", which let LabVIEW programmers creating VIs programmatically.
This VI drop a VI on the specified diagram progarmmatically at cursor position; drop a control/indicator on the specified front panel; or drop an image on the front panel/diagram. This VI can also be used to drop a file on Windows Explorer.
Demo can be downloaded from my web site.

Custom XMP panels don't show in Bridge CS4's Metadata palette
I've got a CS4 custom XMP panel working (using the "Generic" panel in the SDK) but I can't get it to display in the metadata palette of Bridge CS4 (the thing normally bottom right in the default Bridge "essentials" view).
In the old CS3 format, you could do this by adding an "fbname" attribute to fields of the custom panel. How do we now do this in the new SDK?
The Bridge metadata palette is mentioned on page 25 of the SDK programmer's guide, but the example given is merely of Dublin Core keywords (i.e. dc:subject) so shows in the Bridge metadata palette by default already.Following on from this question, is it possible to build up a Metadata panel group of fields drawn from different namespaces? (by group I mean something like the IPTC Core label and arrow which expands into the IPTC fields).
One would have a heading such as "My data", which when expanded shows x fields from one namespace #1 and y fields from namespace #2. I've tried to do this by leaving the namespace blank and hardcoding it and the prefix into the properties' name argument - eg http://ns.adobe.com/photoshop/1.0/photoshop:Urgency
Hope this isn't a hijack!

Bugs: open new doc, custom XMP panel crash
When opening a new document after starting Photoshop, it appears with half a checkboard pattern:
Drawing on it looks like below:
I also had an issue where I closed the doc (without saving) after drawing, then opened a new doc. The previous drawing then appeared partially twice (large, and a small version in top left corner) in the new doc, this only happened once though.
I added a custom XMP panel that works fine with CS5 to $user-dir\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\XMP\Custom File Info Panels\4.0\panels
On selecting the custom panel, in the File Info window, the panel window / CS6 crashes. (The grey window in the sshot below is an imprint of the irfanview settings I used to take these screenshots, this imprinting behaviour (not sure if it has a proper name) is reasonably common with crashed programs).

Will Lightroom 4 support custom XMP?
XMP stands for eXtensible Metdadata Platform. Supposedly it is a standard developed by Adobe that permits image metadata not just be locked into one rather limited core set of fields like IPTC, but the design of custom metadata panels that in theory permits the addition of all kind of metadata fields.
Now, that sounds great - in theory...
Here is the catch: If you are not an advanced programmer, there is no way you will ever understand Adobes XMP Toolkit. For us normal earthlings it is essentialy impossible to make use of the X in eXpansible, we won't never be able to get a grips of programming custom metadata schemas ;-(
Worse: to date only Photoshop and Bridge even support custom metadata panels. Lightroom does not (please notice: I am NOT talking about the option to customize existing panels, I am talking about creating entirely new, customized panels!).
Currently there is unfortunately only one single software product on the market that fully supports XMP: IDimager. While IDimager is a great image database program it falls short in comparison to Lightrooms Image Editing/Adjustment/Developing capabilities. Thus it would be great, if Lightroom supported at least importing custom metadata panels created in other applications such as IDimager.
(specifically this one: http://wiki.idimager.com/index.php?title=DarwinCoreXMP#.27.27.27Darwin_Core_XMP.27.27.27)...Hi Cornelia,
unfortunately ALL these plugins have one severe limitation: They are not XMP custom metadata, they are not saved as XMP metadata to the image files themselves!
In fact this ability in lightroom to "create" your own custom panels is quite deceiving and not at all serving the purpose xmp was originally intended for.
The plugin by Rob Cole for example (the one you are referring to) permits you to create your own "custom metadata" in Lightroom, yet those metadata are NOT saved as XMP. Instead you have to manually backup the data, a rather cumbersome procedure, prone to data loss.
What is great about XMP is the ability to write metadata diretly into an image file. This way they always stay within the image metadata itself and are never lost. You open that file in another program or exchange it with someone else and there is the metadata - residing inside the file itself.
Now, why do I find custom metadata useful? Are there not enough xmp fields already?
I have been using an xmp implementation of the DarwinCore to manage metadata about photos of Natural History Collections, names of species for example, the genus, family, order, collection data where a specimen was collected, etc...
Although a standard for this kind of metadata already exists (i.e., the DarwinCore) this standard is unfortunately not generally available as XMP for image management. Thus, I made up a DarwinCore implementation of XMP in IDimager (http://wiki.idimager.com/index.php?title=DarwinCoreXMP#.27.27.27Darwin_Core_XMP.27.27.27) and it would be great to be able to use it also in Lightroom (at least be able to read it, better yet also write to those fields). In Photoshop and Bridge I can at least see that information, sadly though Lightroom does not even support reading custom XMP...

Hi yall,
I created this custom swatch palette which allows a person to keep swatch info in this palette and instantiate it in documents. The palette can store notes about a particular swatch and there is a save button somewhere which will save your palette state as an xml file.

* I posted the latest update at the bottom on Jan 25 2014.
The principles of this method are to draw by reading the string object and that;s how you can change colors and things by changing the eval-led objects and redrawing them with putting an updating function into OnDraw and hiding/showing the element to force the OnDraw. If you end up using this , I'd like to see some examples! -
Using SDK to create custom XMP panel in Bridge CS4
Using the SDK materials how exactly does one go about creating their own custom XMP panel for Bridge CS4?
I feel like I'm getting close- I was able to copy the BasicControlSamplePanel folder from SDK to my local C drive @
C:\Documents and Settings\tony\Application Data\Adobe\XMP\Custom File Info Panels\2.0\panels
I figure once that file is in the right place I can simply modify it to get custom fields
Now when I did this I noticed in Bridge when rightclicked on an image and clicked file info- the BasicControlSamplePanel tab was visible but upon clicking on BasicControlSamplePanel tab there was nothing in this dialogue box. Tried restarting computer- and still nothing- seems like it is the correct folder what do I need to do to get the properties to show up
Help please
Thanks
TonyHi Tony,
please refer to the section "Creating custom XMP properties using XML" in the XMP FILEINFO SDK PROGRAMMER’S GUIDE for information how to create custom panels for the metadata panels in applications like Bridge or Premiere.

How to install custom XMP Get Info Panels in Adobe Bridge CC
Adobe changed their way they store the custom XMP Get Info Panels in Adobe Bridge CC. Check out this blog to see how you can install the XMP Get Info Panels that you used in Adobe Bridge CS6 in Adobe Bridge CC:
http://www.databasepublish.com/blog/installing-custom-metadata-panels-and-get-info-panels- adobe-bridge-ccCheck your Bridge preferences. It seems that you have the "Don't process images larger than…" option set to a lower amount than some of your files.
So, don't blame it on Bridge, but on the user who neglects that setting. -
I have written a few custom xmp panels that work beautifully in PS, IL, IND, Acrobat, Portfolio etc.. Alas I can't seem to access this info in LR.
Am i missing some crucial step?
I have the txt file in the adobe custom xmp panels folder but it is nowhere to be found in Lightroom's workspace.
Thanks.
aI have also experimented with customized XMP data with Bridge and found it quite powerful and useful. You do need to work with a bit of Javascript to do this, but this is not too difficult to learn.
For example, you can create your own namespace (e.g. "http://ns.mynamespace.com/customdata/1.0/"). and then a series of custom fields (e.g. CustomSetting, CustomName, CustomGroup etc.).
You can then add this namespace and custom fields to any image (except RAW) without affecting any of the existing metadata or the image itself. Once you have this extra metatdata imbedded in images you can use it in a number of other metadata-aware programs for advanced searching or sorting purposes.
Creating a custom metadata field is better than using an existing metadata field (e.g. IPTC fields) for your own purposes. In this way you are free to define the purpose of these fields without worrying that other programs will mess-up this metadata or choke on your image.

The property, color pallete has 4 selectable entries, Frog, Streamline, Tradeshow, and Custom. By selecting "Custom", this means that I can choose the exact colors that I want to use, right? If so, where and how do I specify the colors for my custom color palette. Any reply would be appreciated. Thanks.
Regards,
Rich HeilmanHi Rich,
Did you go through my post here https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/profile?userid=397656 ? I`m not 100% sure that you are able to do this using only Chart Designer. The problem is that you need association between series data id in cutomization XML and data XML. If you know such id on design time, you can re-design my example by moving generated piece of XML from WD to static customizing XML.
Best regards, Maksim Rashchynski. -
Custom Color Palette for Charts
Hi all,
Can I define the colors of a chart by a custom color palette in Design Studio (as you can do it in Web Intelligence) or does SAP intend to implement such a function in a next release? With CSS this isn't fully possible, because it doesn't allow you to coloring the additional line like the corresponding main line.
I've already seen and commented this post Re: Custom Color Palette for Charts / CSS, but it's still unanswered. Maybe I've with a new discussion more success.
Thank you and kind regards

Custom colour palette in Keynote for iOS?
Is there some workaround that would let me create a custom colour palette in Keynote for iOS? Importing a PPT slide seems to change the palette, so I assume it's possible, but I don't want to have to use PPT just to set up Keynote! Ideally, I'd like to be able to import a Kuler palette into the iOS app using only the iPad (I don't have a Mac).
FOUND THE SOLUTION:
I had this same problem and this resolved it for me:
-Go to your "Settings" icon and click on the "General" tab.
-About 2/3 way down the page you will see "Use side switch to:" - make sure "mute" is checked rather than "lock rotation."
-Then make sure the side switch, located next to the volume toggle switch on the side of your ipad, is moved to the right (no red dot showing).
My audio worked fine in embedded videos after I did those two things. Hope it works for you. -
Custom color palette in WAD charts
Hi BI Experts,
we are trying to create a custom color palette, which we want to apply to all your WAD charts.
Can anyone tell us how to do this?
Of course we can customize the colors in each chart, but that's a hell of a lot of work. Moreover, there doesn't seem to be any way to save the custom colors, but we have to recreate the colors with the color picker for every single chart.
The WAD chart wizard allows to choose between color palettes "Enjoy", "Streamline", "Tradeshow" and "User specific".
If it is not possible to create a custom color palette, can we modify one of these SAP color palettes? What does "User specific" mean?
Any help will be much appreciated (and of course rewarded with points).Moin, bei dem Problem kann ich leider überhaupt nicht helfen. Solltest Du allerdings, wie ich annehme, in Göttingen studiert haben und dann ein paar Jahre in den USA gewesen sein, dann melde Dich doch einfach mal, so Du Lust hast.
Besten Gruß,

Custom Color Palette for Charts / CSS
Is there a way of creating a custom color palette for charts (as you can do it in WebIntelligence) and install it on the tomcat?
Or will I have to set my custom colors in the css? And if so: where can I find a description of classes for Charts? Is there any description of css classes at all? All I could find was a list of classes for a crosstab (but no description).
Thank you

Custom color-palette keeps becoming read-only and will not let me add new swatches
I need to make a custom colour palette for work that i can open on different adobe programs, share with others and add new swatches to as I go. I create a custom palette, save it a custom name but whenever I re-open it, it has become a read-only palette and I can no longer add custom swatches to it. How do I get around this problem if I need to keep adding colours to my custom palettes?
ThanksIn case you need to keep swatches from the ASE:
create a new document
empty the swatches panel
add all the swatches from the ASE into that document's swatches panel
add new colors as swatches
from the swatches panel's menu select "save library"
Also see the manual on creating swatches. -
Custom Composed Look not appearing in Change the Look with custom color palette
Hi,
I created custom color palette, (which was a copy of one of the out of the box ones) and uploaded it to the Themes folder under a different name. I then went to the Composed Looks and created a new Composed Look(using the New
Items), which the seattle master page, and the new color palette that I created.
When I go to Change a Look, the new Composed Look does not appear as part of the options.
When I change the color palette of the Composed Look, to one of the out of the box ones, I see it I the Change a Look page.
What am I doing wrong?
ThanksI would check two things. First, did you check in the spcolor file you created? Second, I would review all of the properties of your composed look found in "/_catalogs/design/AllItems.aspx". You might want to copy and paste all properties (except
title and name) and see if your new composed look shows up in "Change the look". Then link to your own custom spcolor file.
