Help with image analysis Photoshop CS4 Extended

Hi there - I recently went to the Birmingham NEC photo expo and saw a guy there giving a CS4 extended demo.  He showed how at the click of a button a folder of new photos were reduced to a smaller bunch of just the most tack-sharp ones.  I can't find out how to do this with my CS4 Extended - can anyone help - or am I just imagining it all  :-)))

Sounds interesting.
Did he do that in Photoshop itself or Bridge or Lightroom?
Anyway, I suspect one could maybe achieve something like this in Photoshop with some fairly heavy Scripting, but I suspect the Script would have to actually open the images for analysis …

  • Help with image ready on ps3 extended

    I am pretty new to photo shop and have cs3 extended.
    I have a Yorkie website where I cut out my Yorkies and paste them to differnet backgrounds.... a lady that does the ANIMATED pictures  HAS DID A COUPLE FOR ME ....BUT I NEED TO LEARN TO DO THIS MYSELF.  She will not tell folks how to do:)
    The problem is once you work with a pic that is animated already then try to  add a dog.....by pasting....it removes the animation in the background pic.... and the picture no longer moves once the dog is added ?....She said she puts thru IMAGE READY...which I do not see anywhere on CS3 extended.  I will try to insert a pic she did for me and any help would be greatly appreciated....as I can do but then the picture is no longer animated once altered in my photoshop but she is doing somehow.....so has to be poss ?  If I were to do this pic it would stop moving once the dogs were added....plus not as good as her but practicing........could it be the fact she is doing in layers and I am doing copy and paste...I do know she puts thru Image ready and I do not know where this is located on cs3 extended or how to do?

    Subject: Re: Help with image ready on ps3 extended
    I'm not sure anyone mentioned this but if not to open GIFs using the import you have to enter the GIF name as GIF isn't listed as one of the options.
    It sounds like you are viewing the images in a maximized screen mode. To view more than one document, press F to cycle through the screen modes. FYI, only the contents of the currently selected document can be viewed in the layers palette.
    I'll just talk about copy/paste so as not to confuse...
    If you are going to copy/paste, click the frame around the dog document to target it. Your layers palette will now contain the contents of the dog document. Click on the layer in the layers palette with the selected dog over transparency. With that layer highlighted in your layers palette, press Ctrl A; then Ctrl C. (Select<Select All; Edit<copy if you prefer using the menu.) This will copy that layer into your clipboard.
    Next, click the frame of the document containing the animation. Click the topmost layer in the layers palette because we want you dog to be in the top layer. Press Ctrl + V. (Edit<Paste if you prefer using the menu).
    Your dog is most likely going to be too big. Use Edit<Free Transform to size and move the dog to the desired location.
    At this point, your dog should be showing in each frame in the animation palette.
    Example:
    http://forums.adobe.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/25315/with-palettes-open.jpg
    I'm using the older Image Ready me method. The highlighted place in the palette is where you switch methods between the old method and the new timeline. Notice, I have the layers and animation palette both in the workspace...and I'm not in a maximized mode. The red arrow shows the correlation between the frame and the layer represented by it in the layers palette.
    Image:second-image.jpg
    Here I have a second image to slip into my animation. I have the creature selected and on it's own layer with transparency around it. Notice that the the layer with the isolated creature is highlighted. At this stage, I'll press Ctrl + A; then Ctrl + C to select and save this image to my clipboard.
    Image:creature-added.jpg
    Here, I've pasted (Ctrl + V or Edit<Paste) in my creature and resized it (Ctrl + T or Edit<free transform) so he can be jumped. I also added a shadow under my creature which I added to a layer under my creature. Notice that when Frame on is selected in the animation palette that the eye is on both the creature and the shadow. If I click the eye to turn them (creature and shadow layer) off, they disappear from the entire animation. I can make them appear at any frame by clicking the desired frame in the animation then turning on the eye icon for the creature and shadow layer in the layers palette. I can also adjust opacity if desired.
    You could even more than the one image if you want the dog to appear to move. Use the eyeball visibility to determine which pose will be used for that frame.
    Example:
    Image:jump-creature-gif.gif
    Here, I used transform warp to adjust the pose of the creature for a few frames as he's jumping the creature...just for fun.

  • Opening raw images in PHotoshop CS4 extended

    I appologize in advance for this DILETTANTE question. I was happily using Lightroom II until recently when I decided, like an idiot,  to buy Adobe Design Suite, which includes Photoshop Cs4 Extended.
    I am unable to open raw images, I get "could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document.". The camera I use right now is Canon 5D Mark II. Lightroom does not have any problem either importing the raw images from the card or importing them from my hard disk, if I had already copied them there from the camera card.
    Could anybody help me?

    For that camera you need the ACR plug-in version 5.2 or higher; you probably still have 5.0 from the installation of the software.
    Check in PS Help > About Plug-in...
    For 5.5 for Mac look here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4577
    For  5.5 for Windows here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4578

  • Photoshop won't open Raw images with my new Camera Canon 6D help! I use Photoshop CS5 extended version.

    Hello,
    I got a new camera and Photoshop and Lightroom won't open Raw images with my new Camera Canon 6D help! I use Photoshop CS5 extended version. and Lightroom 3

    Good news and bad news:
    The bad news is that you need CS6 or higher to open 6D RAWs. (The 6D didn't get support until Camera Raw 7.3; 7.0 premiered in CS6.) You can choose to upgrade (I'd recommend skipping CS6 and go straight for CC 2014 for $10/month) *OR*...
    ...the good news is that the DNG Converter can help you convert your RAWs into DNGs for use in CS5 and Lightroom 3.

  • Photoshop CS4 Extended, issues with resolution and font sizes on Mac

    I have Photoshop CS4 Extended, which worked fine on my old 15 inch Macbook Pro, I think it was 2011 and had high definition display.
    I now have a new 15 inch 'late 2013' Macbook Pro with retina display (2880 x 1800), and OS 10.9.4
    I have 2 problems:
    1) Using photoshop now, the resolution is a lot worse than with my old computer, even though my screen is higher resolution.
    For example, the images themselves are worse resolution on my display, far less crisp and more pixelated than any of my other programs. And even the windows such as 'save as...' screens are terribly pixelated also. Is there a way to fix this?
    2) When using the type tool, I cannot find how to change the size of the font. There used to be numbers which I could change, and also select the font type, both on the top menu bar always visible. Now there is not anymore. What there is there at the top, is what looks to be a bar on top of another bar. The top layer bar is on the left and reaches about one third of the way across the top, and I can drag it by its corner so it can extend more, but not less. It looks like there are things behind it which I cannot see, because it is over the top of them. Perhaps the text size and font options are stuck behind that. What can I do?
    Many thanks!
    Justin

    Hi JJMack, you said "Seems like you want a low resolution display hook and external display to it." I do not know what that means. I did a google search for "low resolution display hook" and it came up with zero results. Also I do not have an external display, only my laptop.
    Does anyone know what I can do to fix this issue? I would greatly appreciate any solution.
    Thank you!

  • Photoshop CS4 extended upgrade problems.....Help!

    I am using Photoshop CS3 (registered and activated) on my old computer.
    I built a new computer and want to install CS4 extended on it. I purchased a Photoshop CS4 Extended update from Amazon for $342.99. During installation of CS4 on my new computer I entered the serial number. The next page that pops up is Upgrade Check that asks: 1) Select product that you already own: The only choice is Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended and 2) it asks for the serial number. I am upgrading from Photoshop CS3, not the extended version, so it will not accept my serial number. Photoshop is installed on a trial basis right now.
    I tried installing Photoshop CS3 on the new computer but that did not help and CS3 did not recognize the CS2 installation disk that I put in the CD drive to prove that I was allowed to install a CS3 uprade.
    The new computer I am trying to install on is an Intel i7 920 processor on a Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD4P motherboard, with 12Gb RAMM, a Sapphire Toxic Radion HD 4870 graphics card, and running Windows XP pro 64 bit. I installed the operating system on the D drive. This computer is not setup to connect to the internet.
    I am also trying to install Adobe CS2 Creative Suite (everything except Photoshop), but the CS2 installation does not recognize the Adobe CS1 disk 1 when I put it in the CD drive as requested.
    This is all very frustrating considering how happy I have been with my Adobe software all the way back to Photoshp 5. I called the 800-833-6687 number and after playing phone tree for a while was informed that I was calling outside their hours (at noon on Sunday) even though the webpage I got the number from says they are available 7 days a week.
    It was bad enough that after spending $195 to upgrade to Photoshop CS3, 3 weeks later Adobe announced Photoshop CS4.
    Thanks in advance for any help,
    Steve

    You do like making things complicated don't you?
    From your message I deduce that you purchased an upgrade that is not in the upgrade eligibility path from the version that you had.
    It's not logical but then what is these days in Adobe marketing? The only solution seems to be to get back on the telephone.

  • Can accurate measurements be made and images scaled in Photoshop CS4 Extended - Student Version

    I draw and amend plan based images (similar to Ordnance Survey plans) and need to be able to work in detail using accurate measurements to create a 2D representation of a building or other feature and their surroundings to a particular scale. Ideally I want to take this further to use the base plans as a means of generating a 3D image.
    I currently have Photoshop Elements 6 which does not allow me to either measure distances/line lengths or work to a defined scale. Am I correct in understanding that Photoshop CS4 Extended - Student Version would overcome this technical deficiency?
    Thanks, KJ

    Get the trial and play with the vanishing point filter. It allows you to draw planes in perspective, scale, clone to the drawn perspectives, measure distances between points and define a distance which is used as a baseline to measure out all the other perspective lines.

  • Satellite A200 - Picture issue with Photoshop CS4 Extended

    Hi Everyone
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 notebook and I have tried to install Photoshop CS4 Extended yesterday.
    There appears to be a problem as every image I bring up looks like this (image link to my flickr account to show what is happening) http://www.flickr.com/photos/meg_and_fred/2990212103/
    I have updated the ATI driver, uninstalled and reinstalled CS4 and its still not working. I also have Photoshop Elements 6 which is opening the same images perfectly so it mus be a CS4 and A200 compatibility problem - does anyone know how to fix this or what the problem could be?
    Thanks so much!!

    Maybe you should update your Photoshop CS4 Extended software.
    In my opinion this could solve this issue because as you said the picture can be edited properly using the Photoshop Elements 6.
    I think its ONLY a Photoshop CS4 Extended software issue.

  • Installing photoshop cs4 extended with cs3 suite

    Hi,
    I would like to install photoshop cs4 extended with cs3 suite on the same drive.
    Is it possible?  Should I uninstall photoshop cs3 (not extended) from the drive first?
    Should I use the WinCS4Cleanupscript before I do that.
    I dont want to uninstall the whole suite cs3.
    Thanks for your advises

    CS3 will co-exist quite happily on your computer with CS4.
    Do not remove it until you are completely satisfied with the new version!
    There is absolutely no need for the clean script at this point. It is only to clear up after messed up un-installs.
