Fringing when using graduated neutral density filter function

I have had fringing occur when using the graduated filter tool to darken a sky.  It occurs along sharply defined lines such as a roofline against the sky.  Has anyone experienced this phenomenon?  What is the solution?

I think it is a good idea to use the global sliders (highlights, shadows, whites, blacks etc) first as many times these are all you need but as Geoff said, the Graduated Filter can really help on difficult photos.  After using the graduated filter you can use the brush to back off the adjustment in selected areas.  This is not the same as the graduated filter mask modifiers in the new ACR and probably in Lr6.

  • When using SEGW / Mapping GetEntitySet  to function call , is $filter implemented automatically?

    Hey everyone
    Im trying to understand if im missing out on something or just misunderstanding things.
    i've created an entity, and a function.
    calling this entity using standard key filter works (i.e /FlightSet(0001), but when using /FlightSet?$filter=carried eq '0001' I simply get all the entities in the collection, no error or anything.
    I've marked the key as "filterable" in the collection.
    i've also taken a look at the class generated by the transaction, it doesnt seem as if the method contains code that is supposed to filter the results, it simply reads the keys and announces errors.
    i have no problem implementing this manually, but i dont know if its a correct behavior.
    thanks.

  • Where is the neutral density filter in Camera Raw?

    It is annoying me because typing G in Camera Raw used to bring up the parallel lines on the image and apply a neutral density graduated grey filter. No more. I did something and I cannot seem to undo it. I really do not want to apply a graduated non-greyscale colour, I want grey.
    The only workaround I have come up with is to select no colour for the filter and apply a reduced exposure filter - perhaps somebody will say that's what a ND filter does and I've answered my own question.
    Thanks in advance.

    The Graduated adjustment tool usually remembers the last lot of settings used. Whenever I want to start from scratch, I click on one of the +/- icons at the ends of the sliders, which seems to default every other setting too.

  • Problem faced when using calculated field as filter

    Iam using an Oracle External Data Source.The external table contains a timestamp field and I add this to my data object.The year,month etc. functions work well on this field and results appear on list views.But when I try to generate a filter for this field and display the view I get errors.
    SQLSYNTAXERROREXCEPTION_REPORTSERVER_STREAMINGLIST_INITIALIZE
    Exception Message ORA-00904: "MONTH": invalid identifier
    So,I tried out with the call center data object found in bam samples.This had a datetime field.Filters on calculated fields work fine here.
    Is the former problem due to timestamp datatype or external datasource or anything else?
    Thanks,
    Raghuram

    Answer to following questions will help me narrow down the problem:
    1. Which version of BAM are you on - 10g or 11g?
    2. What condition are you using in filter i.e. "is equal to", "is less than equal to", "is like"...etc?
    3. In which format is the timestamp data being given in the filter? (by format, I mean mm-dd-yy HH:MM:SS etc)
    4. Can you give the exact datatype of the DB in which this timestamp data is stored?

  • When using the FILE SEND LINK function, why does the system launch a new window if the email app is already open and active?

    I normally have my Yahoo! and Gmail e-mail accounts open and logged into the entire time my system is on. Using your instructions, I have set theFireFox 'mailto' option to USE GMAIL.

    Seems Gmail automatically logged me out. When I logged back in and tried again, it still opened a new window, but used my open account to process the e-mail.
    Must it always open a new window (which then needs to be closed) in executing this function?

  • Acrobat X hangs when using "Save as compressed pdf" function

    I have several users who, when working remotely over VPN, have Acrobat X hang when trying to use the "Save as compressed PDF" to save to either a network drive or to their local machine. The system works fine while in the office however. All other programs and save functionality is fine while connected to the VPN, and I am able to save files directly to the network share or local machine outside of Acrobat. I have removed and reinstalled Acrobat and the program will complete a save normally the first time it's used after the reinstalltion, but will then start failing and hanging again after that. I believe I am at v10.0.7.
    Any and all insight will be greatly appreciated!

    Hey Lori –
    Yes, that’s the option! Sorry don’t have a copy of the software on my own PC to verify against.

  • Muse crashes randomly when using the place file/image function. And is slow!

    Hi guys,
    I am using a MacBook Pro Retina i7 with 8GB ram. I installed the trail version of Adobe Muse and I am really liking the product so far, except that it crashes a lot, randomly, when I sometimes use the place file or place image function. (Command-D) Muse is also slow. I have little apps running, plenty of free space etc but Muse is sluggish, lags and crashes a lot.
    Is there a known reason for this? This is preventing me from considering to buy the program.
    Please help,
    Regards,
    Riaan

    Thank you for that.
    I will give it a try. Two things I noticed, I do have column view on, but sorted by type and then secondly I am placing images from my Google Drive and DropBox folder..
    Will report back once I have had a chance to test it again.

  • Problems faced when using xsl:include and extension functions

    I am Working in XML and XSLT using Oracle's XML Parser V2.
    Previously i had worked in Microsoft technology using MSXMLParser.
    I am facing some problems in XSLT. They are as below...
    1. Using <xsl-include href="Somexsl.xsl">
    the oraclexmlparser processor is giving the error : XSL-1002: Error while processing include XSL file (no protocol: Submenu.xsl).
    * Can u tell me why i am getting this error, and what is the fix for this.
    The same case with <xsl:import> too.
    2. In case i have to write some functions in the previous WD of xsl i used these statements
    <?xml version='1.0'?>
    <!DOCTYPE PageRoot SYSTEM "../../Common/dtd/PageNavBar.dtd">
    <xsl:stylesheet
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl"
    xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"
    result-ns="">
    <xsl:script xmlns:xsl="uri:xsl"><![CDATA[
    var strWebContentPath = "/SurSITE/Content/";
    var strWebImagePath = "/SurSITE/sursitegraphics/";
    function IncScript()
    return "<script language='javascript' src='/SurSITE/Includes/avalidations.js'></script>";
    ]]>
    </xsl:script>
    To call the function i used this
    <xsl:eval no-entities='true'> IncScript();</xsl:eval>
    * Can u tell me how do i do this now, i tried with the code above using the current name space (<xsl:stylesheet version="1.1"
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" />)
    Please use the example given above.
    I will be very greatfull to u if u can give me some suggestion or help for the above said problems.
    Thanking you and eagerly waiting for your reply(s).
    null

    The current version is "1.0" not "1.1"
    You haven't included the code for what your <xsl:include>
    statement looks like, which seems to be what it's complaining
    about...
    XSLT 1.0 has no <xsl:eval>, this is a microsoft specific tag
    from a pre-XSLT-1.0 version.
    XSLT 1.0 has no <xsl:script> element either.

  • Getting rid of black fringe when using anti-alised alpha channel

    I want to take images rendered in Lightwave 9.3 into Photoshop CS2 for compositing. If:
    1. I render objects with antialiased edges over a black background, and then
    2. save out the alpha channel for use as a layer mask in Photoshop
    I get a black fringe around the objects resulting from the semitransparent pixels of the antialiased edges revealing the black background in the base image.
    How should I avoid this problem to get clean antialiased edges?
    Thanks.

    One of the few uses of the Image>Adjust>Brightness/Contrast is choking or spreading Alpha channels. Go to the channels palette and play around with the Alpha to see what happens. Bear in mind that you may want to load the channel as a selection (or not), invert the selection (or not), Modify the selection to expand or contract... (or not), etc, etc.
    The point of all the "or nots" is that there is more than one way to attack this. Your willingness to experiment will determine whether you succeed (or not).
    Here's a before and after:

  • Significant delay when using the "tap to click" trackpad function

    (I accidently post this in the wrong forum -- for the old MBP -- so this is a repost)
    Hello everyone! I bought a 2.4 Ghz unibody MBP like 3 weeks ago. I had an issue and they replaced the computer with a new one at the store. Today is the first day of using the new laptop. They switched out the ram upgrade and the hard drive.
    The issue seems to be that when using the tap to click function on the trackpad, there is a relatively significant delay (at least for a click). With the regular mouse button the delay isn't there. Such as if I'm clicking on the finder or the file tab, there's a bit of a delay before they pop up, compared to instantaniously with the mouse button. When using the trackpad for regular types of tasks, there is a bit of a delay sometimes too. Such as I'll be moving the mouse across the screen and it will stop.
    Please help me out. If I could solve it without going back to the Apple store that would be great. Thanks everyone in advance.

    Update: I think the 1/2 second delay is too long of an estimate, but the delay is significant enough to make me notice something has to be wrong. My previous MBP had no delay.
    When moving the mouse around, I'm not sure if it's a MBP issue, but occasionally the mouse seems to "get stuck" on the screen and I have to begin moving my finger again on the trackpad. This happened on the first MBP too.

  • Some Text Messages do not display when using large font on iphone

    When using increased font size (accessability function) on iphone some text messages will not display. The iphone just seems to lock up. If normal font size is used text massage displays with out any issue. When font size is increased, text message will not display again.

    Hi Peter
    Actually, Captivate does have an essentially unlimited number
    of undo levels. But that number may appear to be different. The
    number of levels starts when you begin editing the project. If you
    close and re-open a project, that starts the undo process over.
    I've tested and I gave up after about 280 or so undos.
    Where Captivate doesn't allow an undo, it normally warns you
    with a rather catastrophic looking dialog.
    Cheers... Rick
