How to change embedding option when using the place command?

When I try to place any file to illustrator (latest version) its automatically embedded. Is there any way to change that so the file will be linked and not embedded?

yarontm,
Second go (I posted this an hour ago, or rather it failed to post for some or no reason):
Are you DoubleClicking the file? If you are, try just Clicking it.
If you are just Clicking it and it just embeds, something is wrong.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

How to hide system tables when using the Oracle SQL Developer?

Hi,
I would like to know how can I show only the tables that I created under the Tables tree? I didnt find a way to create a separate database using the Oracle Sql Developer. I see all the tables together, and would like to differentiate between different databases.
Can anyone explain to me how to do these things?

Illustrator Crashing when using the "Place Image" Command

I my efforts to keep my software updated, I ran and installed all of the Adobe CS 3 updates this morning. Since then, any time I attempt to use the Place command Illy immediately crashes. I don't even get far enough to tell it what I'm trying to place, so I don't think this is can be the image I'm placing.
When I have had issues with Illy in the past, reinstalling from the original disk seemed to fix things, but not this time. I have reinstalled twice now, but it changes nothing. I can copy and paste the images in just fine, but I cannot use the place command without a crash.
Any ideas anyone? I really could use some help...
Thank you in advance for your time -

Nini's probably right. But I remember having the same sort of trouble in Illy5. There was some sort of conflict between Acrobat and Illy so that when you had been using Acrobat and then switched back to Illy it became impossible to place images or select already placed images without Illy crashing. The crash was so pervasive that you had to restart your machine to get things back on track; it wasn't enough to just restart Illy. We never discovered the reason but the problem disappeared on upgrading to Illy6.

How to change button names linked with the 'connect command?'

Hi,
I have linked a button in the sequence view to the Exeution entry point 2 (Single Pass) using the 'Connect command'. The button now displays 'Single Pass' as its caption name while running. I want to give a custom name to this button, but it should still be connected to the single pass function. How can rename it?
Regards
Gopal

Hi,
see this link: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=330&message.id=7318&query.id=380755#M7318
You will find the Text for the buttons in one of the ini files. Use the CustomStrings.ini to define your new text, which will override the text defined in the other ini file located in the NI folder when the Operator Interface or SeqEditor first launched and loads the various resources.
Hope this helps

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.

command doesn't seem to work, I see other people are having issues with getting it to work also,
is their a sure fire way to make it place the requested file?, if so what would it be, ive tried all sorts of combinations,

that you can call a javascript that will do this but I know zero about javascript, any help welcome.
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS3"
activate
set myFile to "Macintosh HD:Users:PATH TO EPS"
tell my document
place alias myFile --on page 2
end tell
end tell
Cheers

You need to have a picture frame to place the art onto. You should label the frame. Then you can use the command"
place alias myfile on page item "box" of page 1 of document 1
Or if you don't want to use a labeled box, you can do something like this:
set myFile to choose file
place myFile on page 1 of document 1

How to turn off measurements when using the line tool

Hello. I'm sorry to trouble you with this small thing but its driving me nuts. I'm using a shared computer at a university and we just upgraded to CS6. When I use the line tool while making a mask a box pops up which measures the line's length and angle. I want to turn it off, and it blocks being able to see what I am trying to mask. I've tried looking this up online and in Photoshop help but I just don't know the correct terminolgy, i.e. what to call it, to find out how to turn it off. Thank you so much so much for any help!
here is a jpg screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/njena5x9ppajzqq/linetool.jpg

That looks like the on-image displays that were added to photoshop cs6
You should be able to turn that off in Photoshop>Preferences>Interface>Show Transformation Values and set Never as the value.

Why am I not able to use "selection" as a print range option when using the print preview feature? Is this facility available or am I doing something wrong?

Having seleted some text on a web page which is the only information I would like to print, I seem to be unable to preview what the printed page will look like using the "Selection" option in the Print Range section of the "Print" Menu from the Print Preview window. The radio button for "Selection" is not selectable!
I am able to do this using Internet Explorer, which is probably my main reason for using that browser but would like to use a similar feature in Firefox

That connection is supported for tethering....

How do you choose bands when using the Dual n band routers?

It say to use the 2.4 for surfing and the 5 for streaming video.how do you choose?

For your PC's that will be connecting for surfing only designate the 2.4GHZ band as the default connection on that PC. For devices, like a DirecTV HD-DVR, use a WGA600N and connect it via the 5GHZ band. As long as you have unique SSID's for each band it is simple.

How do I type diacritics when using the Hebrew phonetic keyboard?

I have a Romanian keyboard layout and as I am currently learning Hebrew, I find it easier to remember where each letter is if I use the phonetic layout instead of the classic layout. My question is how do I use this layout to efficiently insert diacritics. I am currently using the character viewer but it's painfully slow. I tried to search for a tutorial but I can't seem to find one anywhere. Any help is highly appreciated.

I can't help with Hebrew, but perhaps it works the same as on the English keyboard. If you type opt+e you get an accent aigu highlighted in yellow. You can then type another character that would have have that accent (a, e, o, etc). The combined letter will be formed.
A little searching and I found [this|http://forum.redlers.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2317]. Apparently it is letter + opt-number.

No send option when using the reply function

Hi Folks
Hoping you smart uber users can help me with my 'no send' issue.
This is a new issue. I can only guess the issue (no send option) stems from the recent update of desktop manager version 4.3 I performed 3 days ago.
Desktop manager running on XP SP2 including all Microsoft routine updates.
Snapshot of the troubleshooting I attempted to fix issue.
1. Remove and reinstall battery - issue still not resolved - and register again
2. Options - for those who are novice, the icon looks like a wrench
A) Selected advanced options, then Service Book and deleted the all list in the service book except for the provisioning option
B) selected Host routing table and selected register now
Have any of you had a similar issue and can you help. thanks

Register Now wont resend service books to your device. Have your BES admin resend them (if applicable) or log into your BIS site and resend them to yourself.

How to: using the Place command in an action and remember the correct source filename...

I have a large set of product, architecture, and other subject-specific photos, that I’m preparing for a new website; all to be placed in various galleries.
For each photo, I want it to have the same background. If I were doing this manually, I would simply “place” the subject photo into the background, and save it – back to the original photo name.
In other words, doing this manually, PRODUCT_001.TIF gets placed into STANDARD_BKGRND.TIF, (thereby automatically correctly sizing and centering it), and then saving the result back to PRODUCT_001.TIF; either overwriting the original, or into a new folder. (I have the original file somewhere else, and am working with an intermediate copy).
But since I have several hundred photos, how do I create an action (and really – a droplet) that will save the resulting file to the desired name? Typically placing photo ‘PRODUCT_001’ into photo ‘B’, alters photo ‘STANDARD_BKGRND’, so I can’t save the result back to ‘PRODUCT_001’. Said differently, in a droplet, each time it's run saves the result back to the same filename 'STANDARD_BKGRND'.
The end result – I want to apply that droplet to all the PRODUCT_***.TIF files in a given folder, and end up with the same file names as before.
Thanks in advance for your help!

PS - I have no scripting experience in PS, but have written code in other applications/scenarios.

Its great that your products are cutouts layers, Its easy to put cutouts on backgrounds and even add layer style to the product layer to enhance the composite. Still cutouts have size and resolution as do your background images.
When you make composites. A document that is place in or pasted into the current document will be resample to match the current documents DPI resolution to preserve the size of the document being place or pasted in size.
Additionally if your using place if the document being placed in does not fit within the current document's canvas size. Photoshop may scale the image to fit within the canvas. It depends on your user id Photoshop Preference setting.
That means you need you handle the sizes involved.
I would think that you would want the final composite to be the size of the background image.
You need to know its size and dpi resolution. You must use image size on your product image and make the image have the same dpi resolution and a size smaller then the background image. Perhas they have the same dip resolution as the background and are smaller in size. If that the cast their size are good no image resize is required,
Then you need to use canvas size to make the document have the same size and resolution as the background image.
You may want to center the product layer over the canvas however Canvas size will add canvas evenly around the produt layer's layer bounds when you leave the anchor point in the center.
When you then place in the background image it will not be resampled for it has the same dpi resolution as the current document and it will not be scaled for it is an exact canvas size fit. All that remains to be done is move the current placed layer below the product layer
The document name is the product image file name opened by you or by Photoshop automate batch process.
