How to Edit Flash Symbol in Photoshop?

In Flash CS4, I have a graphic of a long filmstrip with 24 pix in it. I need to edit the symbol in photoshop (to put all new pix in), and then replace the current filmstrip with the new filmstrip. How? This is CS4, not CS5.

Add an image to a folder with your fla, image folder(with image inside) and then re import image to stage again then try 'EDIT' the file!

How to edit a PDF in Photoshop CS4

Hi there,
I'm having some real trouble trying to figure out how to edit a PDF in photoshop cs4. So i need to edit/change text, move things around, that type of thing.
I work in Windows.
Could someone give me a bit a low down on how this is done?
Much appreciated,
Victoria

You can open them but you will totally rasterize everything.
PDFs are not intended to be edited. They are a final format but as
mentioned you can use Acrobat for some minor text edits or use it to
extract the images to Photoshop for further editing.

How to edit PSD files on Photoshop Creative Cloud

Hi there,
I am new to Creative Cloud and just downloaded the Photoshop App to my desktop. However, I can't seem to find the options where I can edit my psd files. Can someone please help me? I would like to know how I can start editing PSD files on the Photoshop Creative Cloud App.
Thank you so much!

HI Resumeboston16,
Which version of Photoshop are you using? Photoshop CC?
You'll probably still want to save you PSD files locally to the computers hard drive. You can upload them to the Creative Cloud files page here https://creative.adobe.com/files through the browser.
Then you could download it on another computer to work on it there.

How to add these symbols to Photoshop

Hi there,
I am trying to add some texts to my picture in photoshop and I would like to add symbols like the ones I attached here.
Does anyone know where to find and how to add them?
thanks,

You need to ues the text tool from the toolbox. Simply click it and put it on a location you would like to create a text layer. Once created you can use the selection tool to move it around.

How to edit cropped version in Photoshop?

Once I crop an image in Aperture and then open it in Photoshop it opens the original version. Is there any way to have Photoshop open the version that has been cropped in Aperture?

Bit annoying you can't make further edits on photos already edited by Photoshop though - maybe this is a feature that Apple could include in Aperture 4?
But you can. As Ernie mentioned, if you select the Image that has been edited externally and then had adjustments added and create a duplicate Version, Aperture will "bake in" your adjustments (or "flatten" the Image) and send to your external editor a file with all the Adjustments included.
Aperture gives you the option to either "bake in" your adjustments prior to sending back to an external editor, or to re-edit the Original, and have the adjustments applied to the changed Original when it is returned.
This particular design -- what Ernie has himself (iirc) christened "Pseudo-Originals" -- is difficult to understand at first, but remains practicable. Here is what Aperture does:
- All Images are created by applying the adjustments and metadata changes specified in the Version file -- it's just a text file of instructions -- to an Original image-format file. This is done on-the-fly.
- When you first send an Image to an external editor from within Aperture, Aperture creates a new Version and sends that Version to the external editor. After you make changes in your external editor and save your changes, they are reflected _in the Original of the newly created Version. (This is what Ernie calls the "Pseudo-Original".)
- If you select this Image in Aperture and send it back to your external editor, Aperture sends _the Original_, and keeps the Version file. You (again) edit the Original, and any adjustments or metadata changes you've made are re-applied after you close the file in the external editor.
- When you want to edit _the Version_ of a previously-externally-edited Image in you external editor, you must manually create a new Version in Aperture first. Select the Image, and "File➞Duplicate Version". Then select this newly created Version, and send it to your external editor. All of your adjustments will show.
This is easily seen in practice.
- Select an Image
- Rotate it 45° in Aperture (Original is unchanged; Version shows rotation)
- Send it to your external editor (New Original with rotation is created, new Version shows new Original)
- Crop away 80% of it (Crop shows in external editor)
- Save your changes and close the file (Original is cropped; Version is still just passing through the Original with no additional adjustments)
Your cropped, rotated Image should show in Aperture (you might have to force Aperture to create a new Preview: hold the Option key and run "Photo➞Generate Preview").
- In Aperture, apply a Black & White adjustment (Original is still cropped; Version shows grayscale)
- Duplicate this Version
- Select both Versions (one colored and one grayscale) and send them to your external editor.
You should see one file cropped and colored, and one file cropped and grayscale. In the first case, you are editing the Original that does not include the B & W adjustment (it will be applied back in Aperture after you close and save the file in the external editor). Note that, like all adjustments, this can be removed by unchecking the box at the top left of the Adjustment Brick. In the second case, you are editing a new (Pseudo-) Original that has been made by "baking in" the B & W adjustment. This adjustment cannot be removed.

How to Edit PSD Files In Flash Template

Hi Everyone,
I am new to flash and I am trying to create my first flash site using a template that I have downloaded. I can edit the first page fine, but when I click the "about us" or any other section, the standard template text, Which isn't even in english, appears. I believe that these are psd files, and I have tried to edit them, saved and replaced file on my computer, but still I get the same unchanged text on this site when I preview. Could someone please tell me how to edit and replace these files within the flash movie?

Instance names are the reference names that you give to the individual items on the stage. Only movieClip and button symbols can have instance names.
When you import a photoshop file to Flash you will get individual bitmap objects on the stage and in a folder in the movie's Library. You will need to select each item, one at a time, on the stage and convert each one to a symbol. When you make that conversion the name that you give to that new movieClip or button is the name that you will see in the Library.
When you select that new symbol on the stage, look at the Properties window. You will now see a space at the top where you can give that item an instance name. The instance name is what you will use in Actionscript to control that object on the stage.
When you look in the movie's Library, you will see the original bitmap and the symbol that you created that contains that bitmap.
Does that help?

How to Edit a Missing Flash Image?

I was given a flash project to edit. I have to edit one image in Photoshop, but when I right click on it and choose Edit with - Photoshop, an error message comes up saying "The file G:Web-02\Site\film120902.gif does not exist, unable to launch external editor". I don't understand how Flash can list the image and display the image when I click on it, yet it doesn't exist. I tried to copy the image and paste it in photoshop but it only pastes a very low resolution version of it. What do I do?

Think of your Flash doc as sort of a table of contents.... listing all the stuff that is (suppose to be) in the book. It does not become a .swf until it is "Published" or "Control/Enter" to create a .swf.
But nobody knows if one or more of the pages have been ripped out.
So if you cannot edit that image because it no longer exists, see if there is a version of the .swf or Web page that actually displays the image in the size you need. Then "Print Screen", open PS, File, New, Edit, Paste...there is a screen capture.. crop out what you need and edit from there.
Best of luck,

How can I edit text tabs in Photoshop...?

how can I edit text tabs in Photoshop like in Illustrator that I can choose to view the tab rulers and edit the alignment on the tabs?
is it possible? otherwise I can't understand why I can use the tabs at all...
thanks!

No, tab-formatted text is not editable in the manner you desire. As for your question - tab is just a character like any other. You are simply taking a given kind of implementation for granted, nothing more, but that must not necessarily be the case for all programs. An evil programmer just could assign the tab key to forward delete or any other fancy function just as he could make your space key draw funky symbols from a different Unicode range, if you get my meaning... so simply take it the way it is. If editable formatting is high on your wishlist:

How to edit photo text in adobe photoshop?

how to edit photo text in adobe photoshop?

It will depend on the image. If it was one that was saved as a psd file and has layers (window>layers) {Look in the layers panel and see if you see a layer with a thumbnail that looks like a large T} In this instance, you can double click on that thumbnail to highlight the text then type in its replacement.
If the image is a jpg which does not support layers, transparency or live text, then that would mean that you need to use the selection tools to select that text and fill it with the same color as the background. You can then use the text tool to type in the text you want.
Remember to save a copy as a psd file so you can edit the text at a later date.

How can I edit a droplet for Photoshop 6?

How can I edit a droplet for Photoshop 6? The company hired somebody to set up the droplet years ago, and nobody remembers how it was set up. The computer that was used to save the files has crashed, and I need to change the path the droplet uses for saving the files. I tried to open the droplet with Image Ready, but it said it was not an image ready droplet and could not be opened. The computer running Photoshop is using Windows XP.

It seems that the script on the ps scripts page is to old to work in cs5.
This is a lnk to xtools 1.8 which has the latest version of the droplet decompiler:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ps-scripts/files/xtools/
Just unzip, find the Apps folder and look for the DropletDecompiler.jsx.
Then put your droplet on the desktop, Use File>Scripts>Browse in cs5 to navigate to the DropletDecompiler.jsx.
Here's an example using the Aged Photo.exe droplet from the ps 6 samples folder:
here's the resulting action opened in cs5:

Hi Karen
You may the sort set to Custom. Click the dropdown menu on the toolbar (to the right of the word sort) and change to capture time.
If you can’t see the toolbar above the filmstrip press the T key. Press T again to hide.

What is the file format of the vector you downloaded? Custom Shapes have a .PSP extension, and are placed according to this table.
Preference filenames and locations in Photoshop CC
They will then be loadable from the Custom Shapes drop down — click on the cog icon > Load shape > Find your downloaded vector.
Once placed in the image, it will appear as a Shape layer, and can be edited with the Path, and Direct Selection tools (black and white arrows on the toolbar)

How to edit bitmap which is imported in flash using xml and save the edited bitmap back to xml in flash.

hi all
It would be appreciated if any one let me know how to edit
bitmap which is imported in flash using xml and save the edited
bitmap back to xml in flash.
Is it posible to save the bitmap data in flash?
thanks in advance

Yes you can... but like I said before you need to upload the
data from the changes you make to a server.
In terms of the solution... its unlikely that you'll find one
specifically for your needs. You will have to learn whatever you
don't know how already and maybe adapt some existing examples to
your needs.
To change the visual state of a movie clip... you just do all
the regular things that you want to do to it using flash... scale,
rotation, drawing API , textfields etc in actionscript. If you
don't know how to how to do that stuff, then you need to learn that
first. That's basic actionscript.
You can capture the visual state of a movieclip using the
BitmapData class. That includes a loaded jpeg. You can also
manipulate bimatp data using the same class. You should read up on
that if you don't know how to use it or check out the examples
below for uploading info.
For uploading to the server:
Here's an as2 solution that took 15 secs to find using
google:
http://www.quasimondo.com/archives/000645.php
If you're using as3, google search for "jpeg encoder as3" and
look through that info. There are also historical answers in the
forums here related to this type of thing that might help as
well.

How to edit symbol without dimming the rest?

I can't figure out if this is possible and how to do it on the same window. Illustrator is not very good with the display options and real time updating changes on a new window.

I guess I didn't explain better what I want. I whish I can edit a symbol in context and see real time update on all of its instances.
I also don't mind editing the symbol in it own window if I can see real time update on the artwork in another window. So far trying this with creating a new window of the artwork doesn't appear to work that way.
