Elements 7 and editing the background

Hoping there's some experienced users with Elements 7 out there. I need to modify the background on some photos. Such as blur, or block out a distracting item. Help? where to start?
thanks!
Julie

Julie, for blurring a background refer to my example:

For blocking out an item there are many ways, just depends on the particular case. You might want to upload your picture into a new message. To upload, click the camera icon.

Using Photoshop elements 11 on a PC, when I put new photo on screen to edit the background goes to black which messes me up when making a thumbnail that has black background. How do I get the background to white as it was originally?

Using Adobe photoshop elements 11 on a PC. When I put a photo up to edit the background on the page goes black. I need it to go back to white to do a thumbnail that has black background so I can see it. How do I do that. It used to be white on the background. Don't know how I got it all black. Can you help?

If you mean by "background" the blank work area that presents when you open the Editor, then right click on it and reset to white.
If I have this wrong, please rephrase your inquiry.

I own both Photoshop Elements and Photoshop (the original editor). I find the elements editor to be too cumbersome to use and would just like to edit using Photoshop. When I try to install Photoshop as a secondary editor in elements I get an error message that I don't need to this because it is already supported on the edit menu and task bar. I can not find any way to send images to Photoshop for editing - all I can do is send them to elements editor or the premier editor. Can someone tell me how to send them to Photoshop? Thanks!

Hi,
The D810 requires Camera Raw 8.6 or later - the latest version that is compatible with Photoshop Elements 12 is Camera Raw 8.5 as far as I can see.
You need to either buy a new version of Photoshop Elements or use the free Adobe DNG converter.

How open and edit the coherence.xml file?

How can I open and edit the coherence.xml file?
I cannot find the coherence.xml file in the coherence.jar package.
Thank you,
June

If you are intent on changing the coherence.xml file, then you could use the JAR command (that comes with Java) to extract the coherence.xml file from coherence.jar and the later repackage the coherence.jar file using the udpated coherence.xml file, e.g.:
C:\java\opt\coherence-331\lib>jar -xvf coherence.jar tangosol-coherence.xmlextracted: tangosol-coherence.xml>
Instead of using JAR, on Windows you can associate the .JAR, .WAR and .EAR extensions with WinZip and use it to access / modify the contents of JAR files.
However, the suggested approach is as follows, and does not include any changes to the tangosol.jar file:
The tangosol-coherence-override-dev.xml file can be found in the coherence.jar file. After editing this file (in this case to define a unique value for the port system-property value for the multicast listener), save the file and add it to the server's classpath. When the server is executed, the values in the tangosol-coherence-override-dev.xml file will override any corresponding settings in the tangosol-coherence.xml file.Peace,

I hope you realize you're in the wrong forum.

Trouble with viewing font on spine of Photo book. I can't find a way to view and edit the text which appears on the spine of the dustcover or the book itself when printed.

I can't find a way to view and edit the text which appears on the spine of the dustcover or the photo book itself. When I preview the book it appears on the dustcover and the book, but not when I'm back in the creation or editing windows. I've printed 4 books in a series and two spines are one font size, and two others are a different font size. One of the books has a shortened title on the book spine.

The text on the spine will be the same text that is in the Title text box on the title page. You can change the font and style of that text just like you change any text in Aperture. Aperture will size and center the spine text for you
If you want the content or the font and style of the text to be different from your Title box text then you have to trick the program a bit. Put the text that you want in the spine into the Title text box and then move that box to a place on the page where it will not be visible when printed ( Y coordinate -1.0 inches for example). Don't move it too far away or it will be hard to get back to in order to make an edit. Then make a new text box on the title page and put the text you want on the cover in that. (Or make a book without text on the cover , but with text on the spine).
You are 100% correct in that you can not preview this unless you preview the printed book

How do you post on the forum and edit the wiki?

I'm interested in efficient ways of posting and editing the wiki. Do you know / use any?
I'm currently using firefox + pentadactyl. Pressing Ctrl+i in a text area opens vim
set editor='st -e vim'
and I'm all set :-)

Over two years ago, /dev/zero posted this interesting piece: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=143444
And this thread got me searching for "vim bbcode", and immediately, something interesting:
Use Markdown Instead Of BBCode With Vimperator
looks like a good idea. Or maybe just use something that makes editing bbcode easier (e.g. vim-surround rule, wait, I'll look that one up.)
... OK I'm done looking it up; here is one:
let g:surround_{char2nr("c")} = "<code>\r</code>"
let g:surround_{char2nr("u")} = "<url\1url: \r..*\r=&\1>\r</url>"
The first one's basic; surrounds the target with code tags with the "c" replacement.
This will prompt for URL and surround the target with proper URL bbcode if you use the "u" replacement.
Combine such rules with autocmd and some bbcode syntax highlighting, it would make life easier with bbcode.
Note I've used '<>' instead of '[]' to not confuse bbcode.
As for the topic question, I use Firefox with pentadactyl in a tabbed container in i3. When I press Ctrl-i in a textarea, a VIM editor opens in a new i3 tab, at full size. This makes editing focused. When I need to look at the original web page, I just switch to the previous i3 tab and take a peek.

Have you tried using iMovie?

I shared a movie in iMovie and created a file with the movie but then now I cannot go back in and find the original version to make future edits. What am I missing here? how do i go back and edit the original?

Hi! I need help! I created an imovie and then shared it and cannot go back in and edit the roigianl now. I am new to Imovie and am trying to figure this out quickly as i have to get this done by tonight. Thank you

You might try using the add-on 'NoSquint' which allows numerous zoom options specific to each page you visit & keeps your settings - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
If you want to go back to 3.6x, you will find it here:
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
In most cases you can simply "upgrade" (meaning downgrade) directly from the installation. It would be a good idea to save your passwords & bookmarks just to be on the safe side.

How to animate and have the background stay the same.

Hello, I don't post much. But I have a question that's bugging me. I want to create an animation and have the background stay. How do I do this? I have tried locking the object and puting it on its own layer, but it doesn't work. Animating in AI is new to me.

How, exactly, are you "animating"?
If you are exporting Layers to SWF Frames, the export dialog provides a field in which you can select a specific Layer to serve as a static image. See online Help.

Is it possible to import a mock up from Omnigraffle into Reflow and edit the mockup on Reflow ?

Is it possible to import a mock up from Omnigraffle into Reflow and edit the mockup on Reflow ?

I don't have omnigraffle so I can tell for sure, but the main way in would be if you can get those things in omnigraffle to come into photoshop as layer shapes. Is there an omnigraffle forum to ask about better PSD export? Once you have the layers in the PSD then the import to Reflow should work well.
Hope that helps,
Chris
