  • Screen Grab image resolution

    Hey folks...
    When I do a screen grab, the dimesnions of the image are 1366 x 768. When I stick such an image in the time line, it looks blurry. Any insight?

    Gary
    I am just getting back to your thread. Thanks for the follow up. If the only reason that you went to Fireworks was to resize your photo, then let me ask for a recap.
    a. Given that you have a photo (screen grab) that you wanted to take into Premiere Elements 11 (please confirm since I see Hunt referring to Premiere).
    What format was the screen grab before you decided to take it into Fireworks? Was it jpg or bmp or other?
    b. After you get this screen grab into Premiere Elements 11 what do you want to do with it...include it in a movie or export it as a file or image sized for 1366 x 768 which I believe is 16:9?
    Are you aware of the scaling that you can do in Premiere Elements via Applied Effects/Motion Panel Expanded/Scale Propertiy
    and
    Publish+Share/Computer/Image where you can export your 1366 x 768, using setting under the Advanced Button of the presets there.
    Depending on how close or far away from what you are doing and your intent...you might consider
    Importing this screen grab direct (no detours into Fireworks) into Premiere Elements 11 with the project preset that you set yourself to NTSC HDV HDV 720p30. (See File Menu/New/Project and a check mark next to Force Selected Project Setting on this project".)
    Depending on after Timeline rendering look, Field Options/Always Deinterlace.
    follow that up to an export for one of the 16:9 export...Image or a video file.
    Please let me know if any of the above helps.
    Thanks.

  • When opening an image Photoshop Elements 12 is opening it in Camera Raw, it is not a RAW image and it is cropped How do I uncrop the opened image?

    When I am opening a .jpg image not an actual raw camera image from Elements 12 it is being opened as a camera Raw image and the image is cropped, I can't find anyway to get the image to uncrop or zoom out so that the entire image is visible so that I can actually edit it to something that is useable. The images were taken with an iPad and copied I suspect using the organizer from Elements 11 but I can't be sure. If I could just uncrop the opened image so that the entire image is visible this would not be a big deal.
    Is there a way to uncrop the image that is being opened by Camera Raw? Am I going to have to get my hands on the source of the images (the iPad) and copy the images again using explorer and not let them be copied with the organizer?

    Uncheck the boxes at the bottom of the dialog Scale styles and resample Image so that only constrain proportions is checked. If you the change the resolution box from 240 to 300 you will get back to your original dimensions.
    This is a meaningless thing to do, you still have the exact same number of pixels, you have only changed the metadata number in the file for ppi, and your prints are not affected by this number.
    You could also use the same method to change the dimensions to 6 x 4 or 9 x 6 etc.
    There are some cases (actually most cases) where you need to CROP the photo to change the dimensions, when the aspect ratio of the original photos is different than the aspect ratio of the final photo; the specific case in 99jon's example is the only case you ever want to change dimensions using Image->Resize->Image Size, where the aspect ratio doesn't change from 6x4 to 9x6 (or 12x8 or 18x12 or ...), and even then, you could do the same thing simply by telling the printer the size you want, you don't really need to do anything in PSE.

  • Use of Image Area element with a database

    Hello,
    I have a database with a field containing an url to a graphic file.
    I'd want to create a form which displays this image in an image area element.
    I don't success in doing it. Does somebody knows how to do it ? With or without Javascript ?
    Thanks in advance for your help

    So, after further investigation, Static Images are behaving as they should. After setting the href the first time it can't be changed. It should be possible, however, to change the href of an Image Field as many times as you want, but it doesn't work currently in 7.0.5 or 7.0.7. This is known problem. Unfortunately I don't see any workaround possible for the time being if you need to change the image in a field multiple times. (I suppose you could have multiple image objects, one for each image, and hide/show them dynamically based on which should be shown at the time).

  • Image UI element is  not displayed in Abap webdynpro application

    Hi Experts,
    I need your advice on below issue.
    I have created new ABAP Webdynpro application just to
    display employee photo.
    When loading the application, I generated a dynamic URL for
    a image in webdynpro application path in cache to map to Image UI Element. It
    is working well in DEV and QA environment. But it is not displaying when loaded
    in PRD system.
    Please suggest where to check the cache properties in system
    in order to resolve this issue.
    The user can access the application path, is there any chance for security issue in the same path?
    I suspect the URL is cleared before user access it, can it be controlled via any config?
    Looking forward for your valuable inputs.
    Thanks,
    Swetha

    HI Swetha,
    Maybe the image is not present in MIME repository for the PRD system.
    Please check.

  • How to Snap/Grab Image from 1394 camera and display the Image in CWIMAQVIEWER in VC++ ?

    Hi,
    I have :  -  IMAQ1394 2.0.1
                  -  NI Vision 7.1
    In VB, I can Snap/Grab Image from 1394 camera and display the Image in CWIMAQVIEWER :
        Dim Image0 As New CWIMAQImage
        imaq1394SnapCW(sid0,Image0)
        CWIMAQViewer1.Attach Image0
    Now,How can I do this in VC++6.0?
        I tried:
                  C_CWIMAQImage m_imgViewer1;
                  m_imgViewer1 = m_CWIMAQVision1.CreateCWIMAQImage();
                  m_CWIMAQViewer1.Attach(m_imgViewer1);
                  imaq1394SnapCW(Sid,m_imgViewer1);  <--there is no "imaq1394SnapCW "function in VC++,why?
        Please help me!
        Thank you!

    For people looking back at these old posts regarding
    CWIMAQViewer - it was not made to be used in the C environments and is made
    for VB.
    Refer to the following locations for displaying images in C
    environments:
    Start»All Programs»National Instruments»Vision»Documentation
    Start»All
    Programs»National Instruments»Vision»Text Based Examples
    Make
    sure that you look at the examples and documentation that is in

  • Grab images using IMAQ without sending frame request

    Hello,
    When a camera is externally triggered, is it possible to design a *.vi that makes use of IMAQ and grabs images via Camera Link frame grabber without sending frame request signals AND without knowing the external trigger? Just to grab images whenever FVAL, LVAL and DVAL go high. Possible?
    Thanks.

    Greetings, kcin;
    Just to check whether I understood or not, to have the Framegrabber acquire images when the FVAL, LVAL and DVAL lines go high with no other communication between the camera and the host computer? What exactly is the purpose of this endeavor?
    Initially, I do not believe it would be possible while using our IMAQ Driver simply due to the way it is designed; I will look into the matter further and inform you of my findings.

  • All of my images in Elements 9 are gone. Possibly related, strange icons in iPhoto have appeared.

    All that's left of hundreds of images in Elements are a few gray Elements icons with question marks.  I don't know if it's related, but iPhoto has strange images such as a Safari symbol labeled ibikb, and other icons labeled Reading List, Bookmarks, Top Sites, S0001 Full Screen Enter.......  Clicking on any of these brings up the message that they cannot be opened because the original item cannot be found.  HELP PLEASE.

    Thanks to the forum, I was able to locate them in my Mac's User Name/Pictures.  Is there a way to bring them back into Elements 9?

    Small clarification on Step **6) Oracle Home Directory, ...a) Resize the Root Partition**
    Ubuntu 11.10 has Gparted available as a Ubuntu software download, DONT use that while trying the above step, instead download the ISO file from http://sourceforge.net/projects/gparted/files/gparted-live-stable/ gparted-live-0.12.0-5.iso (124.6 MB)
    Burn that ISO file on a Blank DVD, reboot the Ubuntu , during startup select Boot from DVD Option if not already selected. this will take to Boot Menu Options of Gparted Live then select the first menu option, and this allows to do further action such as Re-sizing .
    and once you have chosen and executed step a) . do NOT run step b) also that is "Setup External Storage"
    I hope this minor clarification can avoid some confusion

  • Downloading RAW images in Elements 13

    I've just bought a Canon 7D Mk11 and found that I was unable to download raw images into Elements 10. It was suggested that I might need a newer version of Elements and so have installed version 13 on Windows 7. Still wouldn't accept the raw files. The downloaded the appropriate raw plug-in/dng converter (8.7). Elements go through the process of searching for media and then transferring files. upon completion of this process it says that nothing was downloaded as the files were either damaged or of a file type not supported. I've never had this problem before with either PSE 7 & 10. Pulling my hair out. Any ideas would be appreciated.

    When you did the update for ACR 8.7, did you go to the Help menu and select Updates?
    If you load the edittor and go to Help -> About Plugins -> Camera raw does it report 8.7?
    My version 13 on windows 7 recognises my Canon 7D Marl II raw files.

  • All grabbed images are NI Test Image

    I'm grabbing images via 1433 with a custom vi executables.

    I'm using HP dx7400 and the PCIe 1433 is installed on a full-height PCI Express x16.
    But from the manual of dx7400, that x16 slot is remarked for graphic cards:
    "One (1) full-height PCI Express x16 slot on PCA (for graphic cards)"
    Wondering if my 1433 is not correctly installed and causing the grabbing problem.
    Any comments would help.

  • Grab images from a IP camera

    ---BACKGROUND---
    We have very little experience with programming for the LabView, but good experience with programming in general.
    ---SETUP---
    In one end we have the newest LabView (8?) that is connected to several OPC driven PLSes.
    In the other end we have a piece of custom hardware that grabs images from several analog cameras (surveillance machine)
    We need to send the image from the surveillance machine to the labview
    software as easily as possible. We have access to the sourcecode for
    the surveillance machine to writing a custom protocol to send images is
    no problem, the problem is the labview end.
    My question is if there is a way to make labview connect to a machine
    and download images from it, the exact protocol is no problem since we
    can customize the hardware completly, a llI need is a connection where
    images come streaming to it.
    If not then maybe there is a way to program the labview to do the following;
       Connect to a machine on the internet
    Send commands to the connected machine
    Receives images in a loop until connection is broken
    Hope anyone got any clues as to what I am trying to accomplish here.
    Thanks in advance

    nyc thanks for your time,
    Here is my code, along with the C# example code from the vendor. 
    FYI the sample code from the vendor did not work on the customers machine either, just showed a black screen. I installed VS2010 Express C#.NET on the machine to test if I could grab images from the vendors example and no joy....didnt work.
