Grainy image with the VIEWSONIC VX2025wm 20" LCD

I've just got a VX2025wm - the image looks all grainy, it's like it's recognizing 'thousands' of colors instead of millions. The tech support at Viewsonic is lousy. Basically they have no drivers for OS 10.x so they tell you to install color profiles for the monitor that adjust the color a bit but don't solve the problem.

Thanks for getting back to me! i checked all the connections and i did try both the digital and analog connections. Turned the monitor on and off, is there anyway of really 'resetting' the monitor? any other way other than turning the power on and off?
i also tried downloading the updated drivers for the graphics card. I'm not sure how to look for the drivers though.. this is the info that shows in the "about this mac":
ATY,RV350:

I guess is the ATI drivers? i hope i got the right ones.. nothing changed with the ones i downloaded..
Thanks!

    I am using a Photoshop cs2, and I wonder if it is possible to keep the settings of the guidelines when closing an image, with the actual document ? It would be nice to have the guidelines locked down, I find it than when opening the same or another image, the guidelines are not locked, it is annoying to have to lock them down again. and it would actually be nice, to ba able to give specific directions when placing the guidelines. Thanks

    Then why are the guides unlocked when I reopen a document that I saved with the guides locked ?
    Thanks.

  • When clicking "Save image as" how can I get Firefox to auto add a (1) (2) etc at the end of the filename if an image with the same filename already exists?

    How can I get Firefox to automatically rename images when clicking "Save image as" on the menu, when an image with the same file name already exists in the folder??

    Hello,
    That is not a feature that is supported natively within Firefox but there are various add-ons which I think will do the job you need.
    The one I have used is [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/web-slide-show/?src=search Web Slide Show]. This is primarily an add-on for viewing a slideshow of images when they are presented as thumbnails on a web page. However once you are in the slideshow there is a download button which will download all the images in the slideshow. It will automatically rename the images if an image with the same name already exists in the folder.
    If you don't like that add-on then here are some others that may do the same job:
    * [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/image-download-%E2%85%B1/?src=search Image Download II]
    * [https://addons.mozilla.org/En-us/firefox/addon/image-picker/ Image Picker]
    I hope that helps. Let me know if not.
    Also I notice that you are using Firefox v23. That is now an outdated version. To get the latest security updates I suggest updating to version 24. See the support article here: [[Update Firefox to the latest version]].

  • How to mark (psd) Images with the Circle Symbol without duplicating them

    I would like to import my layered images in Aperture.
    The problem is i would like to further adjust them in photoshop cs3 without creating a duplicate.
    Is there a possibility to mark this images with the Circle Symbol (for edited with external editor) or do I really have to open each image than close again, delete the master and then the remaining image with the circle can be opened and further enhanced in Photoshop without duplicating the image.
    Another example:
    I like to open a psd file within aperture with: edit with Adobe Photoshop CS3.
    The Image should open without being duplicated. Then I could drag the layer into another PSD document and close it again.
    Right now I would end up with a Master Duplicate which I have to delete afterwards.
    I know I could use referenced files and say show in finder but I like managed better,
    also:
    Show in finder does show you only one image (I like to do that to 5 or 10 images at once).
    bc

    Like I said if you want to get into the programming business you can modify the aperture database directly but I don't know of an easier way with managed masters. You can always just do your workaround to files that you are actually working on and you only need to do it once.
    Sorry there is no answer to easier answer to deal with all of them at the same time. At least none I can think of off the top of my head.
    RB
    Ps. Lightroom can just open your PSD files but that is an apples and oranges thing. Lightroom is not trying to manage your masters for you in a managed library an ensure that nothing modifies them, if you are ok with that method than referenced files should be ok with you as well, you can always use referenced for your legacy PSDs and use a managed methodology for your new images going forward starting with the source image.

  • Projecting an image with the wrong display profile

    I've just spent three hours with a friend and his projector/laptop. He uses it to display images at a photography club, and recently he's had trouble getting a satisfactory projection, with display size and colour rendition.
    The laptop is a MESH 1366x768 running Windows 7 and CS4, the projector was a Canon SX80 1400x1050. They were connected by VGA.
    1, as the projector and laptop monitor were different native resulutions, I established that the Windows needed to be set to external-only for the desktop to assume the projector's dimensions.
    2, I noticed that he'd calibrated the laptop's display, so I made sure that Display 1 (LCD) was using the Spyder profile, and Display 2 (SX80) was using sRGB.
    3, I set the projector to sRGB mode and zeroed all its adjustments.
    The colours were awful, and no amount of projector adjustment helped much. Eventually, I tried a bunch of sRGB images in the projector's USB port, and I realised that the zeroed state was actually pretty good - so it turned out that the laptop was the problem.
    I took a flyer, and ditched the laptop display profile, replacing it with sRGB. Bingo! The projector's VGA display was now very similar to the USB display.
    I put the calibrated profile back on "Display 1", as a sanity check, and confirmed this was the problem (and, before you ask, yes I restarted the applications each time I changed the CM settings).
    So, the question is: what the heck is happening here? Is Windows 7 delivering the wrong profile to CM Adobe software, or is Adobe only looking for the primary display profile? Am I missing something?
    Thanks for any insights, and restoration of my sanity.

    From what I've read, some display drivers don't allow the distinction of using different profiles for multiple displays.  Someone no doubt took a shortcut somewhere and assumed there would/could only be one display.  Given that the laptop in some modes can share the very same display with the VGA port, this isn't that surprising.
    I don't know whether this is something that might have been corrected, but whether a newer driver has been released for that laptop might be something to check into.
    Laptop display drivers are typically not available from the chipset manufacturer, but rather the laptop maker, and traditionally in general they don't do all that good a job keeping up with technology, so there may well not be a driver update available.

  • How do you select a single image with the keyboard?

    I can use the "/" key to deselecting the current photo but how do I select the current photo with the keyboard? Usually the space bar is used for this but that displays the image. Is the only way to select the current photo by using the mouse?

    OK, now that the question has been clarified....
    Pressing and holding the Shift key as you move through the grid with the arrow keys will individually multi-select them, but that breaks down if you want non-contiguous selections, i.e. lifting off the shift key to skip a photo will cause all previous selections to be lost when you use the arrow key to advance. I think the only way for non-contiguous selection is ctrl-click.

  • How do I open a raw image with the Photoshop raw plug in as opposed to the Bridge raw plug-in.

    I read in a book on adobe raw that it is often useful to open an image at the same time with the adobe camera raw bridge plug in and the Photoshop camera raw plug in.
    I can open a raw image in photoshop but I suspect I am not actually getting access to the camera raw plug in as none of the controls present in the bridge raw plug seem to be available from within Photoshop.
    Of course I can access bridge and the bridge raw plug in by opening bridge from within Photoshop but this is not what I want to do.  I would like to open the image using the photoshop raw plug in not the bridge plug in.
    Clueless . . . and confused.
    --Kenoli

    Thanks for the discussion.  It is interesting.  Let me clarify a bit regarding my issue.
    I am using Mountain Lion OSX on a mac, of course, and CS6.  I have been using Aperture, a piece of Apple Software similar to Light Room to organize my images, opening them from Aperture in Photoshop to edit them, as I am both familiar with Photoshop and like the way it does things better than Aperture.  I recently started using CS6 and working with Adobe Camera raw 7, which I think is the version that comes with CS6.  All the info I can get from the web site, including a very nice tutorial from Adobe on camera raw, simply tells me to open it from Bridge.  When I do this, I get a nice set of sliders and other adjustments specifically associated with Adobe Camera Raw and the camera I am using.
    I can open a file in Photoshop using the method SkillRooster suggests and, sure enough, it opens it with the camera raw plug-in (if I simply open the image by double clicking on it it opens in photoshop, no plug-in).  If I then go to bridge and open it from there, I don't get a second instance of Camera raw, it simply points me at the instance opened through Photoshop.
    However, when I open a raw image in Photoshop from Aperture  (raw images open with no problem) I simply get the Photoshop interface, not the camera raw plug-in, the same as if I had double clicked on the image to open it from outside of Aperture.  I am trying to figure out if there is some way to open an image from Aperture in Photoshop so that it opens in the camera raw plug-in.  One possibility I could imagene is to open it in Photoshop and from there open it in the plug-in.  The only thing I see regarding this in Photoshop is a menu item that lets me close the image and open Bridge, which doesn't help me with my Aperture issue.  I could decide to switch to bridge, but with the thousands of images I now have in Aperture, this would be quite a bit of work.  I may just have to work with both going forward.
    The root of my original question comes from something I recently read in a book by Bruce Fraser on Camera Raw which is excellent, but it focues on CS 5.5 as he died before being able to update it.  In that book he describes a trick he uses where he opens the raw image in a plug-in in Bridge and then opens it a second time using a plug-in in Photoshop.  This give him a chance to compare adjustments between the two open images.  As I mentioned above, when I try to do this by starting with Photoshop and then going to Bridge, it points me at the same instance.  I can't open it in Bridge and then Photoshop since once it is open in Bridge, it won't let me into Photoshop without closing the image in Bridge.  I was thinking there might be something in Fraser's method that would help me with my Aperture issue, but can't reproduce what he describes.
    Perhaps this was possible in CS5.5 but no longer  in CS6.
    Another work around I can imagine is to do all my raw editing from Bridge and then save the file as a DNG file in Aperture.  I suspect that after that, I am stuck with doing any more raw editing using the Aperture camera raw funcions, which are a bit lacking compared with Adobe Camera Raw.
    Hope I am being clear here about my dilemma.  Any help would be welcomed.

  • How can the alpha channel be removed in an image with the command sips?

    I solved it by converting the image to jpeg with best quality, but it's a less than optimal solution.
    Is there a better way?
    I want to know because I'm developing a bash script to manipulate images.
    Thank you.

    I'm developing a Bash script to automate PNG compression.
    Converting true color images is often a good idea to reduce file size dramatically but transparency doesn't look any good then. So removing the alpha channel is usually the thing to do.
    I think Apple's platform is very easy to use but as soon as I dig deeper into the system it often becomes frustrating. Why isn't there a simple way to do something so simple and basic as removing alpha channels from images from the command line? Sips should be the answer but doesn't seem to be, unless I've missed something, but the manual doesn't give any clue.

  • How do I create a cross dissolve when working with an Image with the Multiply effect applied?

    FINAL CUT PRO X
    I've added the Multiply effect to an image as it is black and white and I need it to blend in with the background - when I try to add a cross dissolve onto the image to fade it into the background the image will not dissolve with the applied effect, instead, during the dissolve the image is black and white, once the dissolve is complete it then applies the Multiply effect...
    How do I make this so the multiply effect is applied during the dissolve?

    Try making the clip with the Multiply Effect into a Compound Clip and then adding the Dissolve.
