Flash problem with shadows created in PhotoShop

I am relative flash newbie. I created a PSD file in photoshop
that has a "hole" in it and the hole has drop shadow, the
background is transparent. Saved out PSD and created new Flash
file.
Put this graphic on one layer and image on a layer behind to
show through. But the drop shadow I created in Photoshop does not
show correctly. It's much lighter over top of the graphic behind
it.
Any ideas?
Using -> Photoshop CS2 Flash MX
Thanks,
Chris

Thanks the PNG helped a little but I guess it is a
transparency issue with the graphic.

I got some problems with my 3D in Photoshop.I press the 3D button and its showing me nuthing.If someone can help me ...Please... Thanks.

Yes, you have to have a document open or you can open a 3D file (OBJ, 3DS, DAE, LMZ, or U3D)
If you open a document and then open the 3D Panel there are a variety of create 3D options.

Hi
I have a problem with color prints from photoshop elements 12. The pictures are too light and with strange colors. I have a Canon pixma mg615I0 printer and use mac os X yosemite. The pictures are taken with a coanon eos 550d in the color space sRGB. I have followed adobes recommendations and have tried both letting the printer respektive photoshop manage the colors. But nothing works. I see that there are different opinions about which is best to do so I tried both. I have the latest printer driver installed. Can anyone help me with this?

Do the following:
Print a test page from the printer. Perhaps the print head needs cleaning via its maintenance facility.
Let the printer manage colors, not PSE
Calibrate the monitor

Authorization problem with VF01 "Create Billing Documents"

Dear All,
We face following problem with VF01 "Create Billing Documents".
Transaction: VF01
User: Joe
Authorization of Joe:
     VKORG Sales Organization: A, B (authorization object V_VBRK_VKO)
     FKART Billing Type: 1, 2 (authorization object V_VBRK_FKA)
The objective for Joe:
   Joe is qualified to create bills in
      sales org A only for billing type 1 and in
      sales org B only for billing type 2.
   Joe should not be able to create bills for
      sales org A with billing type 2 and in
      sales org B with billing type 1.
How can we solve this problem?
We already searched for userexits without any success.
Any help or ideas are very appreciated.
Regards
Markus Wilhelm
Project Manager ERP

Dear,
There are standard authority-checks based on Sales organization (authorisation object V_VBRK_VKO) and/or Billing type (V_VBRK_FKA).
An option would be to create a new billing type, define specific authorisations and use the new billing type for these documents.
The bad thing is that you would also need a special (new) sales order type, because the billing document type is unique per sales order.
So maybe it is easier to have a different sales organization.
Another option would be to create a new authorization object and check it in the billing documents.
If you wish, you could modify program LV60A005 & LV60A006.
Then you might check various user/customer exits.
Some functions to check: EXIT_SAPLV60A_001/002,
EXIT_SAPLV60B_001 - 008, EXIT_SAPLV60B_010 - 011.

Has anyone else encountered problems with Adobe CMM clobbering Photoshop add-in filters?

I recently tried to install Adobe CMM, as a pop-up window suggested after I installed Photoshop CS5 on a new computer, running Win7x64 Ultimate. Before trying to install CMM, my Akvis Sketch Plug-In for Photoshop worked fine. Afterwards, Akvis Sketch runs under the filters menu, but will not accept mouse clicks from my Wacom tablet. Prior to Adobe CMM, all was fine. Somehow, the frustrating attempt to use Adobe CMM broke links to Akvis Sketch.
By the way, Adobe CMM setup tried to run and vanished without a trace - no indication of success or failure. CMM doesn't show on my control panel as installed software, so I can't de-install it.
I did un-install Akvis Sketch and re-install it. No luck as a filter, nor as a stand-alone program.
Additional point of interest - a second identical software/hardware workstation continues to run Akvis Sketch just fine because we didn't try installing Adobe CMM on that machine. It certainly looks like CMM is the culprit here.
Since Akvis Sketch is broken as a stand-alone, I doubt that de-activating, uninstalling and then re-installing, re-activating Photoshop CS5 will help, but it will take a lot of time to recreate actions and re-install other add-ins, plus preferences settings.
Has anyone else encountered problems with Adobe CMM clobbering Photoshop add-in filters, and have you found a work-around?

Thanks for your response. Recent evidence points to Wacom's tablet driver, not the plug-in.
Fact #1 - another identical system with ms mouse worked fine so I swapped out the Wacom tablet and bingo, the Akvis plug-in works again.
Fact #2 - So does Amazon's Kindle for PC app, which also quit working after running the Adobe CMM setup I'd downloaded.
Suggestion - since there's a legacy for CS5 users getting the "you should download CMM" pop-up, yet no need to do this, maybe Adobe should remove the CMM download page from its website - or flag this download as unneccessary for photoshop users. All Best, Charles Pierce.

Problem with implicitly created Oracle pipes

Hi, I am having a problem with implicitly created Oracle pipes. I am not sure if this is the correct forum for this topic, but I could not see one which suited better..
I am using Oracle pipes as a commiunication mechanism between processes (some are written in PL/SQL and other in PRO*C).
The general problem I have is that if a timeout occurs during the communication process, I end up with 1 or perhaps 2 implicitly created pipes.
The biggest problem for me is that I am unable to determine if a create is implicitly created (via dbms_pipe.send_message or receive_message). This causes problems, since these implicitly created pipes are left behind and not deleted. I'll show you the basic flow of the processes and you shall see my problem.
server: create request pipe "req_pipe"
server: listen for request on requests pipe.
client: create two pipes for comms with server.
client: send request and the names of the newly created pipes to the server.
server: read request and pipename from request pipe (from this point all comms between the client and server are now done over the 2 pipes the client created).
server: send ack message to client to ensure they are still there (since requests can be queued in the request pipe and clients could have timed out before the request is received)
client: send "i'm still here" ack back to the server.
server: process request and send result back to client.
client: send ack back to server to let server know we have received the response.
server: send ack back to client to show that work is now committed.
OK thats the general event flow. I use the rule, that pipes created by a process are removed by a process. So the client always removes the pipes it created in all situations. But since this can happen at any point we can get in the situation:
client: timeout occurs, delete pipes.
server: send message to client (creates an implicit pipe) and therefor works (no errors raised)
server: do a read for response from previous message. (implicitly creates pipe) (will fail).
Now we have two implicitly created pipes! These pipes will exist until the database instance is shutdown, and in a poorly performing environment, we could get thousands of these pipes lying around... not a good situation.
How can I either stop pipes being implicilty created, or how do I detect if a pipe was implicitly created.
I have tried a couple of things, like using v$db_pipes to check if a pipe exists before doing send/reveive calls but this is FAR to slow to do a select on that view.
We have also looked at keeping a record of pipes created by the client then have some process (perhaps the server) clean up these pipes after some time frame. This is a workable solution but is not favourable since it adds extra overhead having to check these pipes often, and created an extra level of complexity which is not required..
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Feel free to email me with any suggestions on my email provided below, or just post a reply to this formum..
Many thanks,
Karl Bridger

Having problem with images imported from photoshop

I am totally new to Fireworks, I am redoing a site that was done using CS2, that is GoLive, Photoshop and Image Ready. I wanted to begin familiarizing myself with Fireworks by starting with using it to make all the web images for the site (jpgs, pngs, etc). It started well but after a while I started getting strange results from FW when I imported PSD files. The PSD imports fine into FW but when I want to "preview" or do a "2-UP" and see what it looks like as a jpg or png I just get a blank image where the jpg or png is supposed to be. However if I "export" the jpg it does get exported, but I would like to preview it to see what the quality is. This doesn't happen every time but at least 50% of the time in the last 2 days, and there seems to be no rhyme or reason behind why it works with some images but not others.
Another thing is that if I add a layer effect to the image such as "inner glow" to the PS image, and then flatten the image to make sure it gets exported to FW, it doesn't get exported. It is as if I never added the layer effect in PS.
Any help on these two issues would be greatly appreciated and help me to continue in perservering with FW.
VL Branko

I don't think I've cracked open Bridge since upgrading to CS5/CS6, and I'm hesitant to start today! I'm therefore kind of assuming that you're starting with PSDs and opening them up in Fireworks. (If you're not doing this, give it a try.)
Regarding the 50% failure of Preview and 2-Up modes, I was thinking that saving the PSDs as native Fireworks PNGs—within Fireworks—might eliminate that problem. It's hard to imagine Fireworks not previewing its own file format, but easier to imagine it failing to properly preview a PSD file. And again, perhaps File > Image Preview might work better for you.
As far as the "inner glow" issue: 1) Be sure to add it into the PSD before importing into Fireworks, and 2) If it doesn't show up, have a look at Filters within the Properties panel for the selected object; you could try selecting Inner Glow within ‘Photoshop Live Effects’ or try out Fireworks' own native Inner Glow filter effect.
Other than for the purpose of familiarizing yourself with Fireworks, you may want to consider why you'd use Fireworks for these graphics, if they were originally created in Photoshop. Small changes in graphic appearance are always possible when moving between applications. For example, Photoshop is color managed whereas Fireworks is not; you therefore might notice a small shift in saturation or tonality between the two applications. Whether this is a concern depends on your final output goals.

Problem with blue color in Photoshop CS4 after calibrating monitor

Hi to all! I would appreciate if someone can help me!
Before some days I calibrated my monitor with Pantone Huey Pro and after that I find out that photoshop doesn't show blue color corectly. I create a blue (0,0,255) page and it looks a bit like violet, while I don't have any problems with red and green (which are perfect), or with other programs (other programs display blue and all colors correctly). But when I save this blue page and open it with a different program I see the real blue color. So the problem is that during editing in Photoshop blue color isn't correct, it's a bit violet.
Can anyone tell me why blue color doesn't behave properly in Photoshop? Is there any setting I should change in Photoshop Color Settings?
I use sRGB on my camera, and sRGB in Photoshop (North America General Purpose 2, sRGB IEC61966-2.1, U.S. Web coated (SWOP) v2, Dot Gain 20%, Dot Gain 20).
Thanks for your time!
George

Thanks for your quick responce!
I update Huey and Photoshop and did the calibration again but it didn't fix the problem. Is it possible that the calibrator doesn't work properly?
My monitor isn't very new, so I don't think it has wide gamut display.
When you say that "if your display is not truely sRGB" you mean that maybe the profile created Huey isn't correct? I have done many times the calibration and the result is always the same.
I think that Paintshop uses color management, too, shouldn't it display the same wrong blue color if Huey's profile is wrong?
How can I check if Huey works properly? Maybe I should try it on a different PC?
Thanks for your time!!!
Best regards,
George

Problem With File Crashing in Photoshop CS5

Hello I have a design file that I just created in Photoshop CS5 last night. I went in to do some editing today and it keeps craahing within a few seconds of being opened. I have never had this problem with a file before and I need it to turn in at work. ANy helpful ideas out there on what may be happening? It's happened at least twenty times now....

If you do a search, you will find several threads dealing with file corruption in CS5/ CS5.1. The long and short of it is, that the file is a goner, but feel free to try things like opening it in another program (Art Rage, Corel Painter, GIMP) or image viewer (XnView, ACDSee) to recover at least parts of it...

Problem with image opened in Photoshop

Hi all,
I am having a strange problem with an image opened from Aperture in Photoshop. Though the image looks fine, something is amiss. Most notably when I try to use the shadow/highlight command in Photoshop, the image actually darkens (highlights are set to zero amount). If I export the image as a jpeg and open it in Photoshop, the s/h command works as expected. If I export as a .psd file and open it, the s/h command again darkens the image. Interestingly, the .psd file thumbnail shows orange with read streaks through it, but opens as it should. Corrupted .psd conversion maybe?
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve

Additional info:
Same problem with a series of photos taken about the same time.
Other photos work fine.
I exported the original .nef file, opened it in camera raw/photoshop. Works fine.
Corruption/bug in the .psd conversion looks more likely unless I'm missing something. . . .
Help!!!

Problems with files opened in Photoshop from Lightroom

Hi,
I started editing a large number of files recently and came upon strange problems when sending files to Photoshop from Lightroom:
1. Sometimes, all edits will be transferred to Photoshop except for the Lens Profile Correction. I tried clearing all changes and starting again, and it didn't work. However, if Lens Profile Correction is the ONLY change I make in Lightroom, it is correctly shown when the file is opened in Photoshop. [EDIT: I thought it was only the Lens Profile Correction, but with some files it appears other edits are disappearing too, such as cropping.]
2. Sometimes, and I can't seem to find any pattern for this, files I sent to Photoshop will open as only "slices" of images. In fact, there is only one sliver of the image that gets opened. Sometimes it is a vertical line, sometimes a horizontal line, usually about 1/20 as thick as it is long. For that problem, I haven't found a solution yet.
I am using the latest versions of Lightroom, Photoshop and Camera Raw, with RAW files created with a Nikon D7000 camera, on an iMac from 2011. I have no software or hardware problems apart from this.
Here's hoping someone can help.
Thanks!

Acrobat 9 pro and problems with pdf made by photoshop cs4

Hello,
I have encountered a problem when viewing pdfs exported from photoshop cs4 using acrobat pro 9. If I open single pdf, it's ok, but whenever I open another pdf, all text is jagged. Then if I close all pdfs and try opening the second one, it's ok again. It looks like acrobat is not able to render texts correctly in newly opened pdf when another pdf is already opened.
This happens only with pdfs exported from photoshop (file->save as->pdf). It does not really matter if the first opened pdf is from photoshop or not, all other opened pdfs from photoshop are crapy.
I tried different settings when saving pdf but the results are always the same - jagged type (it does not even look like aliased, it's completely screwed and unreadable) in second pdf. It is funny because text present as smart object from illustrator renders fine all the time. Therefor I think the problem is between photoshop export and acrobat, vectors are rendered with no problems.
I tried opening on different pc (also with acrobat 9 pro) with the same result. Systems are vista on exporting pc, the second pc is running windows7 beta. However on the third pc with windows XP and adobe reader 9 everything works fine.
Any ideas how to make this work?
regards,
embee

Solution found for me. From Adobe Acrobat & Reader 9.1 Release Notes:
Roaming Profiles on Windows and Networked Home Directory on Macintosh
are not supported configurations for 9.0 or 9.1, however we have made
several fixes in 9.1. We are looking at the possibility of supporting
this for the next major release.
As I am working with roaming profiles, my current solution (which is no solution at all) is to wipe current and reinstall Acrobat/Reader 8. Among other things there are supposed console hacks to make the purchased Adobe software run at all in a group work environment. I will end up trying them later.

Problem with images opened in Photoshop CS 5

Hi, I have a problem with images that I open in Photoshop CS 5. F. ex. I opened
the following image:
The image appears with a purple color in Photoshop. If I hover over the image
with a tool like lasso, it temporarily regains it´s original color. The image mode is RGB Color, 8 Bits/Channel.
I resetted the start settings of Photoshop with the CTRL-Shift-Alt-combination, which had no effect.

The confusion arises from the imprecise error message in the Preferences > Performance dialog box, to wit:
OK, that seems to be open to misunderstanding indeed.
The video card: Citrix Systems Inc. Display Driver.
Could not find a list for CS6 specifically, but the card may fall short.
http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/tested-video-cards-photoshop-cs5.html
If I invoke View > Proof Colors, the only thing that changes is that the text in the brackets
Also if you set View > Proof Setup to something different?
Boilerplate-text:
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by keeping command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift pressed while starting Photoshop, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)?
