Easier ways to tag images?

I'm going through tons of photos and applying keywords to the overall events, so maybe as an example it is a bday party so I select all of those images and tag them all as such. Next, I am trying to tag individual people within all of the tagged bday party images, and as I'm sure you are aware, it is very tedious. Just curious if there is any other way to do this?
Thank you in advance.

You could find all photos with "Steve", and add the keywords to all of those photos at once. Then you repeat with "Mary", and "Fred", and "Usain" and so on.
No one said keywording was easy or quick; it does require effort. The benefits are huge. The value of something is related to the work you put into it.

Easy way to replace images?

Hi, I am using Pages 09 for a document with some diagrams and different images that I have. I have sized them the way I want. My problem is that I have updated some of these images, changed some colors, text etc in the images, but they are the same size and the same filename. Is there any easy way to replace these old images with the new updated version? Is there some way to re-link them as you can in InDesign?
I tried to just copy an image from Finder, then selecting the old image and pasting, hoping that the size would be adjusted but it did not: the new image was huuuge.
Thanks!

As far as I remember, just replace the old files by the new ones in the document's file.
If it is a flat file, rename it
xxx.pages.zip
double clic to expand it
Now, in both original format you have now a package.
ctrl click its icin > Show Package Contents.
After that, you will see the picture files.
For safe, move the old ones in a folder.
Move the new ones in the package.
Close the package
Double click to open it.
It all worked fine you will see the new pictures.
Maybe one day I will write a script to automate the task.

Quick, easy ways to make images look better?

What are the best ways to make images look a bit better? I shot my footage using a pretty bad camera, so quality already isn't the greatest, but what is the best way to make images look a bit more "movie-like"? The 3way color correstion is nothing for me, it's too hard to make images look good, they'll quickly turn too yellow or red, etc... Something to improve contrast maybe? Using Image Control: Brightness and contrast (bezier) doesn't seem to help much.

Okay, I took a couple of screenshots:

Now I don't know alot about image quality or color, but I think there is not enough contrast? It all looks very cold. Luckily, image quality isn't the most important thing in this project, but it would be nice to be able to touch it up a little bit.

Easy way to replace images in keynote without losing formating?

I have a keynote document that contains a large number of images which have been formated in various ways using the tools in keynote (resizing, masking, builds, etc.). When I noticed that the presentation was performing rather slows (locking up, delayed response, etc.), I took a closer look at the image files and discovered that they were 600 dpi. I changed the resolution of the files down to 72dpi in photoshop and replaced the original image with this new lower resolution version. The performance and that slide was greatly improved. However, I now have over 100 images that need the same treatment. I can pull the image file out of keynote fairly easily by dragging the file icon from the file info box of the the metrics tab of the inspector window into a finder folder. BUT, here is the question: is there a way to quickly and easily replace the original 600dpi images in keynote with the new ones that I have scaled down to 72 dpi in photoshop? As far as I can tell, I cannot simply drag the new image (or copy/paste) into the file info box of the metrics pane in the inspector window. Any suggestions???

If the scaling between the 600 DPI and 72 DPI versions of the images are different, then there likely isn't any way to do a bulk change. If, on the other hand, you just need to replace the images themselves, but the same effects are applied (e.g., same scaling, masking, etc.), then you may be able to batch replace them by tinkering with the presentation package. All Keynote presentation are actually "packages", collections of files that appear to the Finder as a single file. If you select the presentation icon while holding down the Control key, then choose "Show Package Contents" from the popup menu, you'll see the files inside the presentation. These files will include the original image files. If you name your 72 DPI files exactly the same as their 600 DPI versions, and replace the old versions with the newer, smaller versions, Keynote should use those new images exactly as it did the old ones.
If you have done a bunch of transformations on the images in Keynote, I'm a bit dubious that this will work, but it may be worth a shot.

Easy way to insert a span tag?

Hey all,
I was just curious if there was an easy way to wrap selected text or what not with a <span></span> tag by clicking a button or something similar?
There is of course the "Insert Div Tag" option, but is there one like this for spans? I feel like maybe I'm just missing this somewhere... :-)
Thanks!
Peter

Well, most of the time when you select some text and apply a different formatting, it will automatically add a span tag for you...
But if you want to manually put one, the quickest way is in code view (I work in split view most of the time...), but if you don't want to go inside the code, there are other ways...
Go into the Insert menu and choose Tag. Then go to the HTML tags section and in the right select span and click Insert. Clicking on the Tag Chooser button in the Common section of the Insert panel will do the same.
A quicker way would be to right-click, select Insert HTML...(or Wrap Tag if you made a selection) and select the span tag, then it Enter (Return).
Hope this helps.

Easy way to remove a keyword from select images

Is there an easy way to remove a keyword?
I want to remove a single keyword from nearly 100 images that have multiple keywords. The single keyword I want to remove exists in other images that I don't want it removed from.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Create a keyword button set and then either use the menu option to remove that keyword or the shortcut key.

Is there a quick & easy way to replace an image within an image frame?

Is there a quick and easy way to replace an image in an image frame that is already set up with the proper effects?
In my example, I have a photo grid and just need to replace the photos periodically. Everything is already in place in the grid. I don't want to recreate the grid on the page.
I thought that I could have clicked to get the brown frame for the image and placed a new one, but that didn't work. Or, I could have right clicked and found something like "replace image", but that didn't work.
How can I quickly and easily just click on the image I need to replace and replace it with another one?

There is an easy way to do this. Click on the image you would like to change and then change the fill to the new image. You will see the fill option in the upper left when you have the image you would like to change selected.

Easy way to manipulate overlay image file?

Greetings, I'm currently trying to figure out how to simplify something for a client so they can make quick changes. Here's what I have:
- Menu with a video in the background playing in a 30s loop.
- Menu buttons with a specific "tile" I created in Photoshop, and placed into DVDSP as an overlay. This button "tile" (a vertical triangle) was placed in a specific position relative to the video in the background.
- Menu buttons illuminate the triangle when you select a specific button properly.
Now, the client has changed the background video from a 4:3 video to a 16:9 video, and wants to move the text and buttons on the menu. In doing so, this means the button "tile" needs to shift many pixels down.
As far as I can tell, there's no way to simply grab the overlay image file and drag it down a few pixels, line it up by eye and be done with it. Do I have to go into Photoshop, manipulate the image, re-save it and reintroduce it to DVDSP?
Basically, is there an easy way to move or relocate the overlay image file within DVDSP? Thanks!

Overlays cannot be moved or relocated in DVD SP. Best bet is to do it in a Custom 16:9 preset in Photoshop

Is there an easy way to convert original images to b&w ?

I have a canon 5d mark II and when I decide to shoot b&w pics, this is what i do : I set my camera to b&w and shoot raw+jpeg. raw files come out in color all the time but jpegs show up in b&w when i import them . I decided to do so as it is very time consuming to convert the original images to b&w one by one.
Is there an easy way to do it?? Any suggestions?

Little known hint well worth knowing:
If you use the menu selection "Photos→Add Adjustment" or "Photos→Add Adjustment Preset", the operation is done to all selected images.
In addition to what Frank says, you could also apply a B&W Adjustment Preset when the files are imported. These adjustments are like any others -- they can be toggled on and off, removed, and adjusted with the settings in the Bricks used.
For grayscale, it is well worth the time exploring the included Presets and the slider controls. Afaik, sophisticated grayscale photographers optimize their images in color prior to converting to grayscale.
JPG is 8-bit and lossy. RAW is (up to) 16-bit and unconverted (no loss of data, but "lossless" isn't quite right). If the JPG conversion and quality suffices, there is little reason to shoot RAW+JPEG.
In essence, you can use the in-camera-created grayscale JPGs, with their fixed and baked-in conversion settings, or you can use Aperture's broad (and time-consuming) grayscale controls. If you do the latter, and settle on a conversion that works for your camera and subject(s), save it as an Adjustment Preset and use it.

Is there an easy way to batch rename existing images in a folder?

Hi,
I discovered that I had accidentally imported several folders with the wrong filename prefix. I use the first three letters so it corresponds to the camera I shot it with, the program I exported it from, or the person who sent it to me. The last source, essentially.
Is there an easy way I am not seeing in LR to rename all the images in a shoot without having to reimport them?
Thanks,
Chris

Hightlight all of the images in the folder, press F2, and set up a renaming preset to your taste, and then apply it. Note that the preset mechanism is the same one used at import.

After editing images in Aperture, I want to overwrite the editing to an external drive. Is thee an easy way to "add" the new work without the long process of backing up the whole library.

After editing images in Aperture, I want to overwrite the new editing to a backup external drive. Is there an easy way to "add" the new work without the long process of backing up the whole library.

But the Library is not a program. I use SuperDuper, and it is smart enough to treat Finder Packages (such as the Library) as a whole bunch of files and folders, and overwrites only those that have changed. Can't CCC be set up the same way?

Is there an easy way to see if there a mouse was clicked on an image?

Is there an easy way to see if there a mouse was clicked on an image? I don't want to do it using math, as I will have anywhere from 1 to 1000 images. Thanks.
Virum

I also went through the same process and used Hashtable at last
Hashtable ht=new Hashtable();
ht.add("1",new Position(number,x,y,image))
ht.add("2",new Position(number,x,y,image))
u need have class Position which has constructor
Position(int number,int x,int y,Image img)
number : 1,2,.....
image : img1,img2......
x,y position
hope u got it

Anyone have an easy way to hide an image when clicked?

Hi,
I have an image where I need each text box/arrow to delete once clicked. Surely there is an easier way than creating millions of frames? Is it possible to do it with a button? The person using the animation needs to click the right ones that would lead to them dissappearing.
This was mocked up in photoshop. Only the photo would be brought into flashes library.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks esdebon for your response. I have tried to get it to work and keep getting compiler errors. Nothing happens when i click on the movie clip. button was converted to a movie clip and I added the actionscript but to no avail. This is the error I am getting while testing:
Scene=Scene 1, layer=low, frame=1, Line 1
Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler
Scene=Scene 1, layer=low, frame=1, Line 3
The class or interface 'MouseEvent' could not be loaded.
In your second response does "
image2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, hideImages) // to mouse over event
image2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, hideImages) // to mouse out event"
replace "
image2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hideImages)
image3.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hideImages)
image4.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hideImages)"
for each image? Two lines compared to one in the original line of code?
Also does this stay the same for the first image?
image1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, hideImages)
function hideImages(e:MouseEvent):void{
e.target.visible=false;
