Exporting and getting back the original settings

Just some basic questions if Lightroom 1 and 2 really behaves this way:
- When I export a picture I edited in the Develop module as a different file name, Lightroom then remembers those changes I made from that particular picture when I go back to the Library module.
- If i try to import the exported file, Lightroom 2 will give two previews of the same edited picture. The exported picture and the original. However, what I wanted Lightroom to do is to retain the original picture so that the edited will also appear in the library.
- When I try to import the original picture again, Lightroom said that the picture already exists in the catalog.
Are there any workarounds so that when I export an edited picture, lightroom retains the original picture for comparison purposes?

If you want both the "original" image and the developed version of the image visible in the Library module then use Virtual Copies.
Do this:
1. import your images
2. select them
3. create a new collection (Library > New Collection) and tick the "Make new virtual copies" box.
You can make development adjustments to the virtual copy.

    Java 6 you can't as Apple maintains it, and Java 7 you could if you uninstall it and Oracle provides the earlier version which they likely won't his last update fixed 37 remote exploits.
    Java broken some software here and there, all you'll have to do is wait for a update from the other parties.

  • How to call plsql procedure or function and getting back the string?

    Hi Everyone,
    i am using Jdev 11.1.1.5.0.
    i have a requirement to call plsql procedure or function from my backing bean java file and get back the returned value from the procedure or function.
    what piece of simple code i need to write in my backing bean?
    please suggest.
    Thanks.

    As always you write the method to call he pl/sql in the application module, expose this method to the client (so you see it in the datacontroll) then create a operation binding to the method and call this operation from the bean. The result you get by operation.getResult();
    You should never call pl/sql from the bean directly!
    The doc shows how to call the procedure from an application module: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/web.1111/b31974/bcadvgen.htm#sm0297

  • Can I get back the original filename even though the file is missing

    I imported 900 RAW images from my desktop into Lightroom, edited them, renamed the filename, and exported them into JPGs. Since I no longer needed the RAW images on my desktop I moved them over to an external hard drive. So now the images are still visible in my Lightroom catalog, but there is no photo to back it up since I moved the original files to the external hard drive. After realizing that I exported the images at 150 dpi instead of 300 dpi I need to re-export the images from lightroon at the proper resolution. But since I moved the originals to the external hard drive there is no photo to back it up in lightroom anymore. So I went to locate the files by clicking on the  "?"  but since I renamed the file when I exported them, the original filename on the external hard drive is now different from the filename in the catalog. Is the only solution to locate the file one by one?  Is there any way I can do them all at once even though the original filename is different from the filename in my lightoom catalog? The original filename is still listed in the metadata, but since the originals are missing it can't change it back.  Please help!

    It sounds as though you moved the files and renamed them outside of Lightroom.  Not a good idea.  I'm not really going to answer the question about retrieving the files.  But if your only concern is the resolution then I wouldn't concern myself about changing the images.  That resolution setting really has no impact or effect of any kind on your images.  It doesn't change the size, or the quality at all.  If you have an image that is 2000x3000 pixels (for instance) it will be that same size regardless of what the resolution setting is.  The only real value that setting has is to give another user an indication of the intent for the image.  When you look at an image in Photoshop and look at the image size feature, Photoshop will tell you the dimensions of the image at that resolution, but that doesn't change anything about the image.

  • Getting back the original iPhone wallpaper photos

    Sorry if this question has been asked before - I couldn't find an answer. Does anyone know where to find the nice pictures that original came with iPhone when it was activated? I accidentally deleted them after syncing. Thanks for any help!

    Restoring your iPhone to factory settings should do this and if restoring from your iPhone's backup doesn't do it, a Restore as a new iPhone or not from the backup should.

  • Rotating an image and getting back the image...

    Hi,
    I have a small problem using images...
    1. I have an existing image...
    2. I need to rotate the image by a certain angle(say 60 degree)....
    3. Return the rotated image back to the calling routine...
    My problem is that I can rotate the image using the AffineTransform, and draw the image immediately... but I cannot return the rotated image... can anyone help me out on this??????

    No sorry that didn't fix it. I forgot to mention that I already have a method in ImagePanel called clearImage()
         * Clear the image on this panel.
        public void clearImage()
            if(panelImage != null) {
                Graphics imageGraphics = panelImage.getGraphics();
                imageGraphics.setColor(Color.LIGHT_GRAY);
                imageGraphics.fillRect(0, 0, width, height);
                repaint();
        }But if I clear the panel and then try to apply the function nothing happens. The LIGHT_GRAY background remains.
    This is how I apply a function in the class[b] ImageViewer
         * Apply a given function to the current image
        private void applyFunction(Function function)
             if(currentImage != null) {     
                  if(function.getName().equals("Zoom In")) {
                       Zoom.ZOOMIN_RATE = 1.5;
                       function.apply(currentImage);
                  else if(function.getName().equals("Zoom Out")) {
                       Zoom.ZOOMIN_RATE = 0.5;
                       function.apply(currentImage);
                  else {          
                       imagePanel.clearImage();
                       function.apply(currentImage);    //A function is applied                   
                  frame.repaint();              
                  showStatus("Applied: " + function.getName());
             else {
                  showStatus("No image loaded.");
        }

  • How to delete "temporary" a game and get back the data later?

    Hello everybody
    My iphone4s 16GB is quite full .
    I wish to delete some game (Galaxy on Fire for example) to have some free space. But i don't want to loose all what i gained during the 45h of play I spent in this game... I want to be able to re-install this game later and find my last save.
    Can you tell me how to proceed?
    Thnaks in advance for your help!
    Guillaume

    You can't do that easily.
    Find another way to free up space, because even if you were able to strip the save data for this game from your device (just do a google search to see how complicated that is) there isn't any guarantee that would even work if you put it back on.

  • Is there anyway to get rid of siri and get back the old voice command?

    I have found siri to be really useless. The server based approach just isn't ready for prime time. Is there a client based alternative. I am really only concerned with being able to voice dial my phone while using blue tooth in the car. Other aspects of voice would be nice, but siri is just too in accurate.
    Thanks

    Awesome. Thanks. I didn't know that the old voice command was still in tact. That did the trick.
