Help with unexpected picture color changes on load

Hi,
I have been learning elements for a couple years and am getting reasonably good at editing
pics like portraits.
Recently was doing high key portrait edits, when I was comparing the RAW CR2 file in ele along side the photos
converted to Adobe psd, the colors where changing after opening and saving as psd.
The thing is I didnt do any changes. I just opened up the raw file, then clicked open from raw edit to go into ele.
Once it opens as a psd the colors have changed.
Camera is set to Adobe RGB. Ele set to manage color for printing.
Is this normal, or something I am doing or not doing.
Suggestion and recommendations requested.
txz.

I understand you are comparing on screen side by side:
- the image in the ACR dialog, without any edits
- the image seen after opening in the editor and saved unedited as psd and reopened to be able to compare side by side.
I agree that you should not see any significant color changes.
A note about your settings:
- Camera set to Adobe RGB : good for jpegs, setting ignored with raw files (in PSE ACR, the choice between sRGB and aRGB depends on the second setting in the editor : always optimize for print). Not relevant to your problem.
- Always optimize for print : means the raw data will be converted to aRGB for printing, and shown according to your display. That's the right setting if you want to print in aRGB.
So, nothing wrong with your settings.
Is there a wrong screen color profile saved on your computer? That could happen with other softwares or with attempted screen calibration tools...
I can't help much in that situation, but it would perhaps help if you described the differences in color betwee both displays. For a better view to compare colors, beware of the surrounding parts of the images : if one is on a clear background (ACR) and the other in a dark one (Editor), you won't see exactly the same colors.

Help with updates - The software change returned error code 0x87D00215(-2016411115).

I have rolled out bunch of updates across few hundred workstation systems.
Few of the desktops have failed to install SOME of the updates and just can't get my head around as to why?
Looking at one of the workstations, I can see 5 updates are pending download at 0%.
Some of these fail after a while and with in Software Centre, I can see 'Help with updates - The software change returned error code 0x87D00215(-2016411115).'. Not exactly sure what this means, but I have tried clearing the cache and
rebooting the workstations few times.
(I have also tried to use Windows Update and install one of these manually, which worked.)

Investigating this further, I have found the following in CAS.log:

Needing help with moving pictures around

I am in need of help in moving pictures and images around
dreamweaver document window. My older brother gave me his computer
witch has dreamweaver MX (he is in Irag) so i can start building
building my own websites. I went to borders and bought a book on
dreamweaver MX. Here is where I am having a problem with: when ever
I bring a picture into the document window I can not move the
picture around the document window. The book say "place the
insertion point where you want the image to appear" but there is no
insertion point. There is just a straight line as if I am about to
type something. It's almost like I am in microsoft word. If I take
the mouse over the picture , and then left click and try to drag
the picture to the location I want it in, it doesn't move. Can
somebody PLEASE help me out with this problem. Thanks Jical

Nadia gave you a good place to start… Here is what you
have to understand. Web pages are based on specific code that tells
the viewer’s browser how to display the page. There has to be
something that says, “Put this picture in the lower right
hand corner, and center this image in the middle of the
screen”
Then there are further instructions that say “Put this
text here and that link there”. So Dreamweaver (and most
other web developing programs) do not work like Illustrator or
PowerPoint where you can simply grab a picture and slide it around
the page.
In its simplest form you might drag an image onto the
Dreamweaver design view page and click on the center button in the
properties dialog.
Then type in text and center it, left justify, right justify,
etc. Add another picture and so on and you could possibly create a
passable web page. Now click on the Code view button and see what
code Dreamweaver generated in order to do all of this.
That is what you will really need to understand before you
can really get proficient at web design.
At the next level, you can start to add in tables. These
actually are similar to tables in Word. You can put text in one
cell, images in another, colored backgrounds, thick and thin
borders with contrasting colors, and you can start to see how to
“contain” your images as Nadia suggests.
Now look at the code again and see how these cells are
defined around your content.
Once you understand how this works, you will get much more
comfortable with Dreamweaver. You will just have to get used to the
idea that it doesn’t work like all of the publishing software
that is only dependant upon its own format for layout. HTML is
dependant upon the many browsers, computers, operating systems,
user preferences, and a million other unknown factors.
That’s why this forum has more than 91,000 posts…

Need help with creating template. Changes are not going through to index.html page

Hi all,
I have an issue with my template that I am creating and also a question about creating template Regions (Repeating and Editable).
Somehow my changes to my index.dwt are not changing my index.html page.
Also my other question is: For my top navigation bar and left navigation bar links, do I need to select and define each individual button or link as Repeating/Editable Region? or can I just select the whole navigation bar (the one on the top) etc...
Below are my steps for creating my template...I am kinda fairly new to using DW and this is my first attempt to making a template following the DW tutorial CD that came with DW CS3.
I appreciate any help with this...regards, Dano
-Open my index.html file
-File/save as template
-Save
-update links - yes
-Select Repeating and Editable Regions (I selected the whole top navigation bar and selected Repeating Region and Editable Region, same with the left side navigation links)
-File close all
-Open the index.dwt
-Save as and selected the index.html and chose to overide it..
When I make changes to my index.dwt it is not changing the index.html
I feel that I am missing some important steps here.....

Need help with keeping pictures in focus after transitions

I am fairly new to Final Cut X.
Right now I am making a DVD of just photos with music added.
I am using transitions between photos as well.
I'm having one problem:
When I play the movie in FC, during the transition from photo to photo my pictures look great and are clear, but when the transition is not happening and the picture is just showing it goes a bit blurry.
Can someone help me out with a solution for this?
Thanks, Adam

Highlight the song or songs you want to add the artwork to.
Click the Artwork button in the lower-left corner of the iTunes window (4th icon in).
The Artwork box will open.
Open the folder with the pictures in it from Windows Explorer
Drag the picture you want to the Artwork box from folder.
Press OK.
Alternatively:
Highlight the song or you want to add the artwork to.
Right click on it and choose Get Info
Then choose the Artwork tab
Choose Add and browse to the picture you want to add.
To add artwork to multiple items using Get Info
Open iTunes, highlight your selection (click on the first track in your list, hold down the shift key and click on the last).
Right click anywhere in the selection and choose Get Info
When you are asked if you want to edit multiple items say yes.
Drag your artwork to the small artwork box about halfway down on the right and choose OK.

HT1386 Help with syncing pictures and music

Hi - I have an Ipad 2 and when I first synced everything up with my itunes, it added all of my music and photos. Now my ipad says storage is full. I want to delete some songs and photos though it appears that I need to be on my home computer to do this and not my ipad. When I try and sync it says it will delete what I have. Do I do this, and with my pictures it just shows me general folders to sync, not specific photos. Can anyone help?

Did you format the new card? You need to do that before being able to access it. You do that via SETTINGS / SD Card & Phone Storage - you need to UNMOUNT it first, then click on FORMAT SD CARD.
As far as the MUSIC, I would just connect via USB and access the files (DCIM / MEDIA) via File Folders on your PC .. get the Media Manager out of the way - it causes more problems than solutions. IMHO.

Help with Expect command to change config on hundreds of ASA's.

Hi All,
I'm looking for some help with the Expect command to automate some tasks, I'm certainly no programmer but I am struggling, here is an example of my script.
#!/usr/bin/expect -f
# This simple Expect script will add a new Syslog destination in
# Cisco switches (IOS based)
# We assume here that all switches uses the same credentials
# for the administrative tasks
# Define variables
set password "site1"
set enablepassword "site1"
# Define all the switches to be reconfigured (separated by spaces)
set switches "site1 site2 site3"
# Main loop
foreach switch $switches {
        puts "Processing switch: $switch";
        # Open the telnet session:
        spawn telnet $switch
        # Perform authentication
        expect "Password:"
        send "$password\r"
        expect ">"
        # Switch to enable mode
        send "en\r"
        expect "Password:"
        send "$enablepassword\r"
        expect "#"
        # Enable configuration mode (terminal)
        send "conf t\r"
        expect "#"
        # Modify VLAN1
        send "interface vlan1\r"
        expect "#"
     # Change VLAN1 Description to Uppercase
        send "description INSIDE\r"
        expect "#"
        send "exit\r"
        expect "#"
        # Save config to NVRAM
        send "wr\r"
        expect "#"
        #Logging out
        send "exit\r"
        expect eof
In the example this works fine for SITE1 passing the credentials SITE1 as the default password and SITE1 as the enable password. I need to do usernames and passwords that are different for each site. I have to make some changes across hundreds of ASA's to terminating tunnels to a new location. Can anyone help out in how to do this, I know I am close I just need it to read, siteA, username, both passwords from a text file, etc

Help with Message Mapping - Context Change

I need help with the following message mapping. I am filtering by EMP_STAT in the Message Mapping. I have this working for the ROW structures, but I can get the HEADER/REC_COUNT field to calculate. I can do just a record count of ROW and get it to work, but I can't get it to work with the filter EMP_STAT = 'REG' added. I get a context error. Could someone send me the mapping code.
Sender XML----
<RECORD>
<ROW>

Hello,
You can use this mapping
For REC_COUNT:
EMP_STAT -> equalsS: constant:REG -> ifWithoutElse -> removeContext -> count -> REC_COUNT
                                 EMPLOYEE -> /
For ROW:
EMP_STAT -> equalsS: constant:REG -> ifWithoutElse -> removeContext -> ROW
                                 EMPLOYEE -> /
For EMPLOYEE:
EMP_STAT -> equalsS: constant:REG -> ifWithoutElse -> removeContext -> SplitByValue -> EMPLOYEE
                                 EMPLOYEE -> /
For EMP_STAT:
Constant: REG -> EMP_STAT
Hope this helps,
Mark

Need help with PPro CS5.5 "Change Color" Effect Masks

I need to find out the best way to adjust the size and shape of the Color Correction Mask to limit the effect to a smaller area than the whole frame. Is there a way to "edit" the mask inside Premiere Pro or is it necessary to use Photoshop to do this? I am working with a fixed scene clip that needs minor color correction in just the lower half of the image.

You could employ the Track Matte effect technique
described step by step in this post by Ann Bens.

Need help with finding picture size

ok here is my problem i have this sphere and it works great except when you click the thumbnails to display the picture, depending on the size of the picture, the pictures can get pushed to far over, and i understand why. the x and y coord never change. now my idea is to get the size of picture and use that to adjust the x-coord accordingly. my question is. how do i get the picture size? if i can. do the pictures have to be in the fla?
heres code:
The radius of the sphere, 'rad'. You can change it if you wish
especially if you use thumbnails of a different size than our thumbnails.
var rad:Number=380;
The position of 'board' that will be defined later. 'board' is the main
container containing the sphere and the black background
that reponds to mouse actions.
var posX:Number=stage.stageWidth/2;
var posY:Number=stage.stageHeight/2;
The size of thumbnails. Change the values to reflect the size of your
images.
var thumbWidth:Number=70;
var thumbHeight:Number=53;
The thumbnail images have been imported to the Library and linked to AS3
under the names 'Small1', 'Small2',....,'Small46'. The corresponding
Bitmap objects will be stored in the array 'thumbsArray'.
var thumbsArray:Array=[];
The addresses of the images corresponding to the thumbnails are stored
in 'picsArray'. The images will be loaded at runtime when the user
clicks on each thumbnail.
var picsArray:Array=[];
The Bitmap object corresponding to each thumbnail will be placed
in a Sprite, holdersArray[i][j], as its child. We have to do this
to make thumbnails responsive to mouse clicks.
var holdersArray:Array=[];
In order to depth-sort images on the sphere, we will need to keep
track of their midpoints and the position of each midpoint in 3D.
The midpoints will be stored in 'midsArray'.
var midsArray:Array=[];
The only part of our spherical menu that is hard-wired (and a bit harder
to customize) is the number of thumbnails and their placement on the sphere.
We have 46 thumbnails placed along 7 horizontal 'circles' on the sphere.
The 'jLen' vector describes the number of thumbnails on each circle.
The first 'circle' is the north pole and contains 1 image; the second
is the circle corresponding to the vertical angle of 30 degrees
from the negative y axis. That circle contains 6 images. The next one,
at 60 degree of vertical displacement contains 10 images;
the one after that, at 90 degrees from the negative y axis, is the equador
of the sphere and contains 12 images. Past that, we go symmetrically:
10, 6, and 1 image at the south pole.
All our arrays are organized to reflect that placement of thumbnails.
For example, thumbsArray is an array of arrays, thumbsArray[i], where
i corresponds to the number of each circle. thumbsArray[i][j] is the
j-th image on the i-th of the seven circles.
var jLen:Vector.<Number>=new Vector.<Number>();
jLen=Vector.<Number>([1,6,10,12,10,6,1]);
We use the almost standard parametrization of a sphere:
phi is the vertical angle measured from the vertical axis
pointing upwards (in Flash's coordinate system this is the negative
y-axis), theta is the horizontal angle measured from the
horizontal axis pointing away from the screen; that is,
the negative z-axis. phi changes from 0 to 90 degrees,
theta from 0 to 360 degrees. For each circle, phi is constant:
0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180. 'thetaStep' contains the angular
distances between thumbnails on each circle. Except
for the north and the south pole, for each circle
the angular distance between thumbnails equals to 360 divided
by the number of thumbnails on the circle.
var thetaStep:Vector.<Number>=new Vector.<Number>();
thetaStep=Vector.<Number>([0,60,36,30,36,60,0]);
//The vertical angle between circles.
var phiStep:Number=30;
To make images tangent to the sphere, we need to tilt them
vertically and horizontally. Horizontal tilt is always
equal to the theta angle of the midpoint
of the image and changes along each circle;
the vertical tilt is based on the values
of phi and is constant for each circle of thumbnails.
var phiTilt:Vector.<Number>=new Vector.<Number>();
phiTilt=Vector.<Number>([-90,-60,-30,0,30,60,90]);
//The next four variables are related to auto-rotation
//and rotation by the user.
var autoOn:Boolean=true;
var manualOn:Boolean=false;
var prevX:Number;
var prevY:Number;
//The amount of perpective distortion. Higher values give more distortion.
//Values have to be between 0 and 180 as they correspond to the view angle.
this.transform.perspectiveProjection.fieldOfView=70;
//We define and position the container 'board'.
var board:Sprite=new Sprite();
this.addChild(board);
board.x=posX;
board.y=posY;
//We call the function that draws the border and the background
//of 'board'.
drawBoard();
//Settings for our dynamic text boxes present on the Stage.
infoBox.mouseEnabled=false;
infoBox.wordWrap=true;
infoBox.text="";
loadBox.mouseEnabled=false;
loadBox.wordWrap=true;
loadBox.text="";
loadBox.visible=false;
When the user double-clicks on a thumbnail, the corresponding image
will be loaded into 'loader' - an instance of the Loader class.
'loader' is a child of the Sprite, 'photoHolder', which is a child
of the MainTimeline.
var photoHolder:Sprite=new Sprite();
this.addChild(photoHolder);
photoHolder.x=200;
photoHolder.y=100;
var loader:Loader=new Loader();
photoHolder.addChild(loader);
photoHolder.visible=false;
We will literally 'build' a shere of thumbnails by positioning
them in a Sprite called 'spSphere'. The moment we assign
any of the 3D properties to 'spSphere', for example a value for the z coordinate,
spSphere becomes a 3D container. That means we can place elements in it
in 3D. We will also be able to apply 3D methods to 'spSphere', e.g. rotations.
When 'spSphere' becomes a 3D display object, it has transfrom.matrix3D property.
The latter property holds all the information about the current 3D state
of 'spSphere'.
var spSphere:Sprite=new Sprite();
board.addChild(spSphere);
spSphere.x=0;
spSphere.y=0;
//We move 'spSphere' backwards to avoid distortion of the front thumbnails.
//You can experiment with different values for the z coordinate.
spSphere.z=rad;
//We call several functions defined later in the script.
//They names tell it all.
setUpPics();
buildSphere();
spSphere.rotationY=0;
spSphere.rotationX=0;
spSphere.rotationZ=0;
spSphere.filters=[new GlowFilter(0x666666,1.0,6.0,6.0,2)];
rotateSphere(0,0,0);
setUpListeners();
//The function that draws the black rectangle behind our sphere.
//You can change the values below to change the size and the color
//of the background. Those values do not affect the sphere itself.
function drawBoard():void {
      board.graphics.clear();
      board.graphics.lineStyle(0,0x333333);
      board.graphics.beginFill(0x000000, 0);
      board.graphics.drawRect(-640,-490,1180,1080);
      board.graphics.endFill();
//We add all the necassary listeners. They are self-explanatory.
//Note that holdersArray[i][j] is the Sprite that contains the
//j-th thumbnail on the i-th circle.
function setUpListeners():void {
          var i:int;
          var j:int;
          this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,autoRotate);
          board.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT,boardOut);
          board.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE,boardMove);
          board.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,boardDown);
          board.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,boardUp);
          loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,doneLoad);
          loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR,loadingError);
          photoHolder.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,holderClicked);
         for(i=0;i<7;i++){
            for(j=0;j<jLen[i];j++){
                holdersArray[i][j].doubleClickEnabled=true;
                holdersArray[i][j].addEventListener(MouseEvent.DOUBLE_CLICK,picClicked);
The functions that are executed in response to events to which we listen.
The next one runs when a loaded picture is clicked.
function holderClicked(e:MouseEvent):void {
    board.visible=true;
    photoHolder.visible=false;
    infoBox.text="";
    manualOn=false;
    autoOn=true;
'picClicked' is executed when any of the thumbnails is double-clicked.
Note that in the function 'buildSphere' below, we assigned names to
all holders, holderArray[i][j]. We need those names now to know
which thumbnail was clicked and which image to load.
function picClicked(e:MouseEvent):void {
    var targName:String="Double Click Image To View";
    var i:int;
    var j:int;
    targName=e.currentTarget.name;
    i=int(targName.charAt(3));
    j=int(targName.substring(5,targName.length));

The function setUpPics populates the arrays thumbsArray and picsArray.
Note the organization of thumbnails by circles on which they reside:
thumbsArray[0] - the north pole, thumbsArray[1] thumbnails of the first circle
down from the north pole, etc. 'picsArray' is organized similarly.
You can, of course, subsitute your own images, use thumbnails of
dimensions different from ours. Changing the number of thumbnails and their organization
would, however, require rewritting the script a bit.
function setUpPics():void {
    thumbsArray[0]=[new Bitmap(new Small1(70,46))];
    picsArray[0]=["pic1.jpg"];
    thumbsArray[1]=[new Bitmap(new Small2(70,105)),new Bitmap(new Small3(70,105)),new Bitmap(new Small4(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small5(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small6(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small7(70,53))];
    picsArray[1]=["pic2.jpg","pic3.jpg","pic4.jpg","pic5.jpg","pic6.jpg","pic7.jpg"];
    thumbsArray[2]=[new Bitmap(new Small8(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small9(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small10(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small11(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small12(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small13(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small14(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small15(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small16(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small17(70,53))];
    picsArray[2]=["pic8.jpg","pic9.jpg","pic10.jpg","pic11.jpg","pic12.jpg","pic13.jpg","pic1 4.jpg","pic15.jpg","pic16.jpg","pic17.jpg"];
    thumbsArray[3]=[new Bitmap(new Small18(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small19(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small20(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small21(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small22(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small23(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small24(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small25(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small26(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small27(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small28(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small29(70,53))];
    picsArray[3]=["pic18.jpg","pic19.jpg","pic20.jpg","pic21.jpg","pic22.jpg","pic23.jpg","pi c24.jpg","pic25.jpg","pic26.jpg","pic27.jpg","pic28.jpg","pic29.jpg"];
    thumbsArray[4]=[new Bitmap(new Small30(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small31(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small32(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small33(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small34(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small35(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small36(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small37(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small38(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small39(70,53))];
    picsArray[4]=["pic30.jpg","pic31.jpg","pic32.jpg","pic33.jpg","pic34.jpg","pic35.jpg","pi c36.jpg","pic37.jpg","pic38.jpg","pic39.jpg"];
    thumbsArray[5]=[new Bitmap(new Small40(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small41(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small42(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small43(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small44(70,53)),new Bitmap(new Small45(70,53))];
    picsArray[5]=["pic40.jpg","pic41.jpg","pic42.jpg","pic43.jpg","pic44.jpg","pic45.jpg"];
    thumbsArray[6]=[new Bitmap(new Small46(70,53))];
    picsArray[6]=["pic46.jpg"];
In the next function we actually create a 3D sphere of thumbnails by positioning
them in 3D within spSphere. Note the center of the sphere is at (0,0,0) of
spSphere. It might be worth recalling that with our interpretation of
phi and theta each point P=(x,y,z) on the sphere corresponding to given values
of phi and theta is given by:
x = rad * sin(phi) * sin(theta),
y = -rad * cos(phi),
z = -rad * sin(phi) * cos(theta).
Within the function, we populate 'holdersArray' and 'midsArray'. We assign thumbnails
to holdersArray elements, position holdersArray elements, tilt them, give them names.
We literally build our sphere.
function buildSphere():void {
    var i:int;
    var j:int;
    var tStep:Number;
    var pStep:Number=phiStep*Math.PI/180;
    for(i=0;i<7;i++){
        holdersArray[i]=[];
        midsArray[i]=[];
        tStep=thetaStep[i]*Math.PI/180;
        for(j=0;j<jLen[i];j++){
            midsArray[i][j]=new Vector3D(rad*Math.sin(i*pStep)*Math.sin(j*tStep),-rad*Math.cos(i*pStep),-rad*Math.sin(i*p Step)*Math.cos(j*tStep));
            holdersArray[i][j]=new Sprite();
            holdersArray[i][j].name="pic"+String(i)+"_"+String(j);
            holdersArray[i][j].addChild(thumbsArray[i][j]);
            thumbsArray[i][j].x=-thumbWidth/2;
            thumbsArray[i][j].y=-thumbHeight/2;
            spSphere.addChild(holdersArray[i][j]);
            holdersArray[i][j].x=midsArray[i][j].x;
            holdersArray[i][j].y=midsArray[i][j].y;
            holdersArray[i][j].z=midsArray[i][j].z;
            holdersArray[i][j].rotationX=phiTilt[i];
            holdersArray[i][j].rotationY=-j*thetaStep[i];
      zSortPics();
'zSortPics' depth-sorts all thumbnails corresponding to each view of
the sphere. It sorts thumbnails by removing them (or more precisely
their holders, holdersArray[i][j], as children of spSphere and then reassigning
them based on the z-coordinates of their midpoints.
function zSortPics():void {
    var distArray:Array=[];
    var dist:Number;
    var i:int;
    var j:int;
    var k:int;
    var curMatrix:Matrix3D;
    var curMid:Vector3D;
    curMatrix=spSphere.transform.matrix3D.clone();
    while(spSphere.numChildren>0){
        spSphere.removeChildAt(0);
        for(i=0;i<7;i++){
            for(j=0;j<jLen[i];j++){
            curMid=curMatrix.deltaTransformVector(midsArray[i][j]);
            dist=curMid.z;
            distArray.push([dist,i,j]);
      distArray.sort(byDist);
      for(k=0;k<distArray.length;k++){
          spSphere.addChild(holdersArray[distArray[k][1]][distArray[k][2]]);
          holdersArray[distArray[k][1]][distArray[k][2]].alpha=Math.max(k/(distArray.length-1),0.5) ;
function byDist(v:Array,w:Array):Number {
     if (v[0]>w[0]){
        return -1;
      } else if (v[0]<w[0]){
        return 1;
       } else {
        return 0;
The function that rotates the sphere in response to the user moving the mouse.
Note we are setting the z coordinate to 0 before rotation. Otherwise,
the non-zero translation coefficients produce undesirable effects.
Note also that we do not use this function in 'autoRotate'. That is because
when the sphere auto-rotates we want it to revolve about is pole-to-pole
axis. That means prepending rather than appending rotation.
See the function 'autoRotate' above.
function rotateSphere(rotx:Number,roty:Number,rotz:Number):void {
      spSphere.z=0;
      spSphere.transform.matrix3D.appendRotation(rotx,Vector3D.X_AXIS);
      spSphere.transform.matrix3D.appendRotation(roty,Vector3D.Y_AXIS);
      spSphere.transform.matrix3D.appendRotation(rotz,Vector3D.Z_AXIS);
      spSphere.z=rad;
      zSortPics();

I won't be searching thru all that code to try to find something relevant to your post, but if you are using a Loader to load the images, you can get the width and height as soon as the loading is complete using the loader object (loader.width, loader.height). You just need to wait until loading is complete, so you'll need a listener for that if you don't have one already.

Beginner help with splash of color in a black and white photo

Hi there. I just perchased the Photoshop Elements 7. I have a picture of my niece who has beautiful blue eyes and I want to make it black and white and them leave her eyes there beautiful blue?? Can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to do this? I have search all over and the answers I can across where way to complex for my new beginner knowledge. Also I have another photo of the same niece with her prom dress on that I would like to leave her eye color alone and dress, but the rest in black and white. I would appreciate any help anyone can give me. I am so lost with this program at the moment. Thank you so much!!

There are several ways to do it. One way which is really flexible is to add a Hue/Saturation layer over your image. Reduce the Saturation in this dialog to -100 to remove all of the color. Grab your paint brush and set the color to black. With the Hue/Saturation layer selected, paint over the eyes to reveal the color of her eyes.
A couple of tricks to go with this.
You can blur the mask to soften/feather the edges after you paint if needed.
If you need to firm up the edges, use levels on the mask...ctrl L.
If you want to mix your own black and white effect, you can use the drop down box in the Hue/Saturation dialog box to reduce each individual color channel's Saturation to -100 (instead of the master which effects the overall); then tune your effect by adjusting the individual color's lightness values. You can also adjust Hue values if desired.

[SOLVED] Help with updating conky-colors PKGBUILD

I'm looking to update my PKGBUILD for https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/conky-colors/ to support the latest version. After getting annoyed with DeviantArt replacing the zips of the package when it is updated upstream, I've decided to pull in specific commits from the git repo instead. I'm trying to use the ...#commit= option on the source line. It seems to be building ok but I'm getting the following errors:
/usr/bin/makepkg: eval: line 2225: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
/usr/bin/makepkg: eval: line 2226: syntax error: unexpected end of file
Can anyone give any help as to what may be the cause here. If i remove the #commit it goes away. I need to clean up the depends section to remove those that are no longer needed, but I can do that easy enough.

I didn't post the install earlier because I've never had an issue with it, been using the same file for several releases of several custom built packages. The eval: lines posted appear before "Making package: conky-colors 9.0-1 (Mon 11 Nov 18:58:03 GMT 2013)" but doesn't prevent it from building. Just don't get what's causing them.

Help with rich black color for print project, please

We are using CS5 photoshop to create a 3ft x 8 ft vinyl banner. We've never created something this large for print before. Included layers are a black to white gradient, a black filigree graphic from DigitalJuice, and black text (that was created in Illustrator by someone else). We set the project up using CMYK. The printer informed us that we need to change the blacks to rich black (C50%, M40%, Y40%, K100%).
How is this best done? I can see how to change the color picker to the rich black %, but this doesn't appear to change the blacks in the project. Is there a way to change them, or to export the project with rich blacks?
Do we have to begin from scratch - and if so, how do we get the graphics and gradients to the rich black color settings.
Any help will be greatly appreciated -

In RGB mode I can't create non - rich black. For example if I set the color palette to CMYK, choose C=0%, M=0%,Y=0%, K=100%, fill the canvas with this color, and then measure the color with the eyedropper, the color reads C=70%, M=68%, Y=64, K=74%.
This means that if your document is in CMYK mode and you have blacks that read C=0%, M=0%,Y=0%, K=100%, converting the document to RGB and then back to CMYK these blacks will become rich. Though the numbers of the rich black my vary depending on how your color management is set.
Have in mind that the numbers above preserve the tonal intensity of non-rich black when converted to rich black. If you want the numbers your printer suggested they will be fine for elements like text and flat colors but for things like photo images this will intensify the blacks and will alter the tonal balance appearance which may be not what you want.

Why does a placed .eps file with a Pantone color change the color mode to CMYK?

I am working on a 2-color newsletter in Indesign CS5... black and Pantone 227U.
Whenever I place a duotone .eps (black + 227U) or an Illustrator vector .eps with 227U in it, the color mode for that swatch changes to CMYK. An Illustrator vector which is 100% 227U also gives me the same issue.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks Rob!
I also unchecked “All spots to process” and the spot color appeared in the Separations Preview.
