Duplicate layer dialog box

in config. i want to have a DUPLICATE LAYER button just
immediately create a duplicate layer, so its a oneclick process,
but instead it pops up a dialog box for me to name the new layer,
which i dont want to do, and it makes config. not be more efficient
then dragging a layer to the new layer icon in my layers panel to
create a duplicate layer.
does someone know what extra coding i could add, or whatever
it takes so that a DUPLICATE LAYER button in config. will
immediately add a dup layer?
tx for any input

ahh, thats perfect! thank you greatly, so now i know anytime
i want to supress dialogs just to change the DialogModes
thats handy and i hope it helps others anytime they need to
supress dialogs (perhaps a checkbox option to automatically enable
things in configurator to show dialogs or supress them would be
handy).
now if you can figure the puzzle of how to add extra
keystrokes to commands as i am now trying to get the MERGE VISIBLE
to work with an extra ALT keystroke so i can have it do a MERGE
VISIBLE ON NEW LAYER instead of MERGE VISIBLE (converting a
sht+ctl+e into a sht+ctl+alt+e which i use alot)
thanks again!

  • New Layer without dialog box on CS5.1 ???

    I'm sure this question must have been asked somewhere before now but I haven't had much finding the answer...
    In past versions I think this was do-able with something like Cmd + Opt + Shift + N but this plain ain't happening with CS 5.1 anyone got any idea how this is mapped these days? One feature that continues to annoy me with Photoshop is that this is "on by default" - a nuisance if you are working with multiple layered pieces....
    Much prefer this to be off by default and accessible through the layer palette instead...

    No, it is not solved which is why I have not marked it so and indeed which is why I asked the question.
    If you or someone who knows the actual shourtcut would be kind enough to share the correct shortcut for what I wan't to do then I will test it and be able to conferm,,, but indeed the handbags are still very much out:
    As mentioned in CS5 on the other thread it was simply sufficient to use the command key to summon up the Color picker Hud... in 5.1 however its Ctrl + Cmd + Opt even with hyperdock off... Why not makee it CMD + QWEERTMNBBVGH5478  + CMD (Right) just to see how patient or dextrous the user really is????
    Inconsistent...
    Cmd + **** + N by default brings up a New Layer with dialog.... but what brings up New Layer without? I have in any case remapped F2 to the former and I think everyone and their Uncle by now know and are used to Cmd (Ctrl) + X. C and V for clipboard operations... so repetition on the F keys is lame... Better used as Power Shortcuts imo to flip, duplicate and create new layers imo - grea,t except for this dialog box every time you summon up a new layer!....

    Hi Noel,
    Actually, I just checked my scratch disk available space and it says ot is over 1.7 TB!!  I am only using the C drive as my scratch drive, as that is my only drive.  Anyway, I appreciate your help! Still will not function properly.  Maybe I should try reinstalling Photoshop.

  • IPhoto 4 importing duplicate photos without dialog box opening

    I often import pictures from my Canon PowerShot SD550 to more than one computer. I do not use iPhoto to delete photos after importing. Occasionally I need to import more recent photos to one computer before I have the opportunity to import older photos to the other computer which is at another location. I used to get a dialog box on this computer asking me if I want to import duplicate photos. I must have accidentally checked the wrong box once because iPhoto now imports all photos every time without the dialog box. How can I regain control to not import duplicates?

    It's just me … restating my question. My original wording was not as clear as I thought!

  • Photoshop opens dialog box when trying to fill a layer with transparent pixels locked

    This script should set the layer to lock transparent pixels, and then fill the layer with a color. It does that, except when it gets to the fill stage, it opens the fill dialog box, and you have to hit okay.
    If you omit the transparent pixel line, it runs as expected, no dialog box.
    Is there a way to suppress the box? Or am I doing something wrong that's causing the box to open?
    #target photoshop
    app.bringToFront();
    doc = app.activeDocument;
    doc.artLayers[0].isBackgroundLayer = false;
    doc.artLayers[0].transparentPixelsLocked = true;
    app.activeDocument.selection.fill(app.foregroundColor);

    Not sure why that happens.
    But I would recommend foregoing the locking and using the AM code for a Fill that honours the transparency.

  • Layer Style Dialog Box

    As a newbie I am working my way through CS5 Classroom in a Book.
    One lesson calls for setting Invert on when selecting Satin and the illustration shows the Invers box alongside the contour in the Layer Style box but when I launch this I only see the anti-aliased option.
    Why am I not seeing the Invert option?
    All help greatly appreciated.
    Ken Markey

    A common mistake with the Layer Style dialog is that you can check an effect on, but still be viewing the settings for another effect.
    Look carefully at the title near the top of the dialog that's in the line that goes around the settings.
    Make sure you click on the NAME of the effect along the left side to highlight it and show the settings for a particular effect.

  • Open/save dialog boxes not working correctly.

    Environment: CS6 (PS 13.0.1) Mac OS X 10.7.5. Plenty of hardware. (Generally starting with .CR2 RAW.)
    Two open/save problems
    Recently (maybe since the 13.0.1 update??), I have been having problems with the open and save as dialog boxes.
    First. The open file dialog always defaults to Enable: blank (i.e. no file types enabled). Each time I have to  go to the bottom of the dropdown list and select "All readable documents" before I can open ANY type of file. I've searched in everyway I can think of looking for some method to have OPEN default to "all readable" but can't find anyway to do this. Anyone have a suggestion? I admit this is a nuisance more than anything, but when whipping around at deadline having to stop each time and make this change is irritating. No other program has this difficulty (including Illustrator and InDesign). PS5.5 did not exhibit this behavior on the same machine.
    Second. When I save as and try to select any file format, say going from psd to tiff, the format dropdown list ALWAYS selects the format ABOVE the one I choose. Example: If I select JPEG, PS tries to save as .iff. If I pull the selection down to JPEG2000 it will then save as standard JPEG. Again just an irritant but, tiff (which I need for several other programs) is last on the list thus there is no way I can go one below it to get tiff format selected. It always comes out as png. Also note that the Format selection indicates the correct format - in the case of tiff the dialog box shows TIFF selected, but the program is apending .png. (Continuing the save as (without altering my selection) always results in the incorrect format no matter what the Format dialog says in the save as operation.) Again, no other program I work with (including several Adobe products) exhibits this behavior.
    I seriously need to be able to save as tiff. Anyone with any thoughts on this?
    Thanks much,
    Robert

    I appreciate all responses particularly from an "Official Adobe" human being!
    Unfortunately, a significant amount of effort has been expended with no joy here.
    I have done the following;
    (1) examined every plug-in folder for duplicates - None found
    (2) deleted the symlinks (aliases) Topaz created referencing their plug-ins in /Library/Application Support
    (3) reinstalled the Topaz bundle - no change
    (4) Spoke at length with Topaz support and have been assured that all of their plug-ins are CS6 compatible.
    (5) Have had the same conversation with Nik regarding their 2 plug-ins - assured that they are compatible.
    Frankly I'm stumped here. I've combed my system in everyway I can without any change in PS behavior - on Open it defaults to blank and "Save as" selects the wrong format.
    Question for the experts. Would deleting PS completely and then reinstalling make a difference or am I now in uncharted territory and on my own?
    Thanks for all assistance,
    Robert
    Still need to save as TIFF but can't seem to get there.

  • I keep getting dialog box saying " The itunes Library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation"  I am the only user on this computer and only one library! how do i change access privileges please?

    hi I keep getting the dialog box " The iTunes Library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation"
    How do i  amend this  as i only have one account and one library. I cannot save new work or delete duplicate files

    A belated reply, as the problems itunes has have discouraged me from using it much. If you uncheck the "read only" box, it doesn't stay that way! Next time you use it, the box comes up checked.
    I'm still having that problem, even when I open iTunes as administrator.
    I've yet to see the answer to this problem. I use itunes mostly to download audiobooks, and I'm ready to download more, and want to save them!

  • Error while mapping a Java class for a Search Dialog Box component

    Hi,
    Scenario : There is PAR which I have developed for the sorting options for a Search Component set to be used in Km Search Iview.
                   I have copied this PAR from a similiar search functionality and customised the same.
    Problem: When I deploy the PAR and then map this class for the sort options while creating a New Search Dialog box :
    I get the following "Class not found error" ... Please can you let me know what could be the problem.
    Any help would be appreciated here as I have tried all the possibilities to solve the problem.
    Regards,
    Vaishali.

    I modified the xml file as described in the forum.But the error persists.
    One interesting thing is:
    When I create model after restarting the NDS,I get the following error:
    org.eclipse.swt.SWTException: Failed to execute runnable <i>(java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError: JCO.classInitialize(): Could not load middleware layer 'com.sap.mw.jco.rfc.MiddlewareRFC'

    I get the NoClassDef found error next time onwards,
    Where do I get the 620.0.1374 version of librfc?
    thanx.

  • Creating a new folder starts up import dialog box...

    When I click the plus sign on the folders panel, it takes me to the create folder dialog where I can browse to the location of the new folder.
    Sometimes, after clicking OK, LR then starts up the import dialog box with a heap of images to import which I then need to cancel. I should have checked where the images were from but have not thought to do so before this post.
    Anyway, is there any functionality in LR that should import images when a new folder is created? I think this happens when I don't have a folder selected...not sure.. away from LR at the moment.
    As an aside, I wish you could click the + on the folders panel and LR would create a subfolder at the selected location with the name ready to edit, rather than going to a new dialog and having to browse to the location.

    >"Anyway, is there any functionality in LR that should import images when a new folder is created? I think this happens when I don't have a folder selected...not sure.. away from LR at the moment. "
    I can't duplicate this. Whether I have highlighted an existing LR folder or not, clicking the "+" brings up the create folder dialog, I browse to a location and create a subfolder. That folder then becomes a LR folder. If I do have a current LR folder highlighted, the process (or just right clicking on the folder name and choose "Create Folder") brings up the create folder dialog with the current LR folder as the parent. I can create a new folder and it will become a LR subfolder of the highlighted one.
    >"As an aside, I wish you could click the + on the folders panel and LR would create a subfolder at the selected location with the name ready to edit, rather than going to a new dialog and having to browse to the location."
    Actually, the new dialog that opens for me (as described above) places me in the selected folder - all I do is click the create folder button in that window and a new subfolder is made. I think the reason LR won't just create a new subfolder without going to a new dialog is that the folders panel lists the "LR folders" which are a parallel universe to the "real folders" on your drive. Perhaps the LR engineers thought that by providing you with the browser/creator dialog, they were giving you more control. Who knows.

  • All Office 2010 Applications Slow To Produce "OPEN" or "SAVE AS" Dialog Box ONLY When PC Connected To Network

    Hello all,
    Frustrating problem: ALL Office 2010 apps require a 45 second delay to produce an "open" or "save as" dialog box when the computer is connected to a LAN (wireless or wired, domain or workgroup). When the computer is NOT connected to a LAN (wireless or wired,
    domain or workgroup), then Office 2010 "open" or "save as" dialog boxes open normally (and quickly).
    I suspect a network search/survey function internal to MS Office is at fault.
    This is NOT the infamous mapped network drive problem associated with Office 2007/2010. There are no mapped drives (nor have there ever been) on the PC, although there might exist a related solution. Additionally, there is no 45 second delay when opening
    a file by double-clicking on the file itself which will launch the application.
    Other information:
    1. PC runs Windows 7 Pro 32 bit - PC is a relatively new Lenovo T400 laptop, all updates from Lenovo and MS installed, running clean and nicely otherwise, no spyware, no viruses, no previous software or hardware issues requiring assistance. Event log is
    clean.
    2. Absolutely fresh installation of Office 2010 Pro Plus (MS Action Pack)
    3. Running Office apps in safe mode does not alter problem behavior (ie, "windword.exe /a" or use CTRL key and double-click to launch app)
    4. Running Windows 7 in safe mode with networking and then subsequently testing Office apps is not possible: "license not able to validate" issue. This is a known problem and is not related to the slow dialog box response behavior.
    5. A desktop PC with the same MS Office 2010 installation, same volume license key, on the same network does NOT produce this problem.
    6. Full uninstall, reboot, and re-install of Office 2010 does not alleviate problem
    7. Disabling ALL startup items and services (including, of course, ALL Lenovo management software) does not alleviate problem
    8. SMB v2 bug is not the problem: ie, disabling mrxsmb20 service does not alleviate symptoms.
    9. I have isolated "Client for Microsoft Networks", "QOS Packet Scheduler", "Link-Layer Topology Discovery Mapper I/O Driver" (and Responder), and "Printer and File Sharing for MS Networks" in the network adapter properties are NOT causing the issue.
    10. Using Sysinternals Registry Monitor, I was able to determine that Office apps evaluate certain properties of your Internet Explorer settings before attempting to launch the "open" or "save as" dialog box. Altering the way intranets are detected, for
    example, does not alleviate the symptoms.
    11. Turning off Antivirus software (Avira Personal) does not alleviate the issue.
    This issue is causing a huge loss of work efficiency. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you for your time.
    Sincerely,
    Rick

    Hello Rick,
    Through all the research I have done so far and talking with a few other coworkers what the common issues that cause this are is:
    1. Antivirus: disabling the antivirus is not good enough it needs to be totaly uninstalled and retested.
    2. startup programs: these need to be disabled through either Safe mode with networking or the start menu or MSconfig.
    3. Office addins: Disable all of them see if that helps. Then turn them back on one by one to see which addin is causing the issue.
    To disable addins: 1. open up regedit and navigate to this key. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\Addins and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Word\Addins
    Then change the LoadBehavior to 0 this will disable the addin. 3 lets it run. Since this affected only one user HKEY_LOCAL_USER might be your best bet but don't rule out the other location.
    To verify there are no addins running go to the File tab>options>Add-Ins make sure nothing is listed under Active Application Add-ins.
    I hope this helps
    Thanks,
    Paul Slaathaug Sr. Support Engineer - Microsoft Word

  • I can't open an .ai file in Illustrator without a dialog box appearing "Open PDF."  I have no idea what I can't open it as an Illustrator file (and not a PDF)

    Once I open a page as a PDF, all my layer info is lost.  I've tried opening it on two machines and the dialog box continues to appear.  Again, it's not a PDF extension. 
    Thanks for the help!

    Since you're sure you saved it back to CS5, the issue might have been caused by saving directly to the server. Illustrator does not particularly like that.
    90% of corrupt files are caused by saving directly to the server.
    You might try and first copy the file to your harddisk and then open it from there. Opening files directly from the server is an issue as well.

  • Windows 7, Photoshop CS6 or CC Dialog boxes Messed up bad!

    Hi Guys,
    I'm running a PC with Windows 7 and a Nvidia Quadro 600 Card.
    I have tried solving this one on and off for many months with no luck. Updating the drivers on the GPU etc. Clean installing.
    It seems to affect only photoshop dialog boxes. But on both CS6 and even now on CC.
    I'd settle right now for anyone even seeing this problem before! (Although I'd love a solution, don't get me wrong)
    Here are a few snippets of the problems. Makes it impossible to read and use. Poor guy who uses this at work, is having a hard time using photoshop! It's every dialog, that gets messed up.
    Um, help!

    I actually can't believe I'm writing this, but I have finally resolved this issue!
    I think it might have been something to do with duplicate fonts.
    I had duplicates of Arial and about 9 other fonts. However for the life of me, I could not delete them after going through changing ownership of the Windows folder to enable deletion of duplicate fonts which were used by the system. Couldn't do it that.
    I finally re-installed WIndows 7 as an upgrade. So basically I was upgrading to the exact same version of Windows 7, while maintaining all my original settings, programs, mapped drives etc etc. Everything.
    And photoshop looks peachy now! I can actually see what I'm doing!
    But thanks to Dutch Paul Paul, who got me thinking along the lines of re-activating fonts!
