How to squeeze things in PS

I mean, make some part of a person thinner for example - I can't remember the tools to do it - can you please help?

Have you tried Filter > Liquify yet (possibly with its Freeze Mask Tool)?
Other than that you could simply select a portion (or better lift it into a Layer of its own) and use Edit > Transform > Warp.
Or the Smudge Tool (one of the Blur Tool’s secondaries), but that would not be advisable.

  • How to share things with aplication express?

    The most important thing for using a database is sharing things, but why I grant even all of one of my table to one user, but she even cannot use it, just say: error; userxxx don't have the right to access the content?
    Very strange, and the Synonm is also no good, I create one for another user's table, like create synonm XXX for username.tablename.
    but when I want to : Select x,x.x, from xxx, it doesn't work!!!

    Better to give you some photos that can let you see
    the problem , but that can not happen here.Actually, you can use pictures. Do a screen capture where you're having the problem, upload it to http://tinypic.com and then put the link to the picture here in your posting.
    Please be noticed all , me and the users don't know
    much about SQL, I know some. So everything has to be
    done in the GUI interface.Well, the GUI isn't always enough. If you want to do grants you really need to use the SQL command window - and learn the proper syntax for the grant operation.
    I(A) grant select , update, insert on A.xx to user
    B,
    but they see onthing in ther Application Express, how
    can they do insert and all works just like I do ? What is the parsing schema for your application? Is it set to the schema where your data lives?

  • My Mac has gone really slow since upgrading to Mavericks. Any suggestions as to how to speed things up again?

    My Mac has gone really slow since upgrading to Mavericks. Any suggestions as to how to speed things up again?

    First, back up all data immediately unless you already have a current backup. If you can't back up, stop here. Do not take any of the steps below.
    Step 1
    This diagnostic procedure will query the log for messages that may indicate a system issue. It changes nothing, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'GPU |hfs: Ru|I/O e|find tok|n Cause: -|NVDA\(|pagin|timed? ?o' | tail | awk '/:/{$4=""; print}' | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key.
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Normally the command will produce no output, and the window will be empty. If the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window) has anything in it, stop here and post it — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the TextEdit window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
    Step 2
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Run Software Update. If there's a firmware update, install it.
    If you're booting from an aftermarket SSD, see whether there's a firmware update for it.
    If you have a portable computer, check the cycle count of the battery. It may be due for replacement.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane. See whether there's any change.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    Boot into Recovery mode, launch Disk Utility, and run Repair Disk.
    If you have a MacBook Pro with dual graphics, disable automatic graphics switching in the Energy Saverpreference pane for better performance at the cost of shorter battery life.
    Step 3
    When you notice the problem, launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the View menu or the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for User, System, and Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the Memory tab. What value is shown in the bottom part of the window for Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in andWrites out.)
    Step 4
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

  • What happens if im trying update my ipod but its telling me i have purchases that have not been transferrend to my itunes libary and its says i can still do it but im scared its gonna erase something but i dont know how to transfer things either!!!

    what happens if your trying to update your ipod but its telling me i have purchases that has not been transferred to my itunes libary and its says i can still do it but im scared its gonna erase something but i dont know how to transfer things either!!!

    Transfer the purchass by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    In iTunes 11 use Control+B to show the Menu bar then go to iTunes>File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    If not transferred, the purchases will not be on the iPod after the update.

  • How to slow things down to see the progress bar?

    how to slow things down to let the progress bar to show its progress?
    everytime i run the program i can see only two scenario: 1. 0% 2. 100%
    i think the stuffs are too little to make any difference.
    what should i add in the codes so that i can see the progress?
    thanks!
    here is my codes:
    jProgressBar1.setValue(1);
    do some stuff here
    jProgressBar1.setValue(15);
    do some stuff
    jProgressBar1.setValue(31);
    do some stuff
    jProgressBar1.setValue(41);
    do some stuff
    jProgressBar1.setValue(61);
    do some stuff
    jProgressBar1.setValue(100);

    Hi!
    When you call update on the progress bar, the value of the progress bar is updated, but it won't be reflected on the screen until Swing has a chance to repaint. Swing can't repaint until your code is finished. So, what's happening is something like this:
    setValue(1), do stuff, setValue(15), do stuff, setValue(31), do stuff, Swing Repaint
    Also, not only does this block the progress bar from updating, but as long as your code here is running it blocks all of Swing (repainting, handling events, etc...).
    If your "stuff" isn't very time consuming, just remove the progress bar altogether. Otherwise, to make things work properly, you'll want to move it to another thread. Then, from that thread you can keep the progress bar up to date with:
    SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            jProgressBar1.setValue(xxx);
    });Hope that helps!

  • How to make things fly without a greenscreen in Motion 5

    How to make things fly without a greenscreen in Motion 5

    green-screen = color-key is just one method to 'punch out' the wanted parts of a pic from the unwanted.
    other methods:
    • luma-key: object is in front of a plain black (or white) background ...
    • alpha-key: 'object' is a computer-generated image, rendered with an alpha-key
    • rotoscoping: you mask the the object by hand from the unwanted parts.
    ...and 'fly' is just key-framing the scenery so it looks like the object is hovering over all .........
    very unspecific question, hm?

  • How do I use Firebug with a website I created? I want to see how long each thing takes to load on the page. The server is very slow.

    I have created a website/blog with Wordpress. It appears to be on a slow server because it can't be opened or takes forever to open. A representative from Wordpress told me to download Firebug to find out how long each thing takes to load on the page. I downloaded Firebug but I can't figure out how to use it. Please advise.

    OK. You've kind of skipped over the reason why you want to go back five hours, but my assumption would be that you've made changes to a Pages file that you want to revert.
    There are two ways to tackle this. From Pages itself, open the current version of your document, and from the File menu, click Revert To, and Browse All Versions. You'll then be in the Time Machine interface for that file, and can browse back to the version you want.
    Or, outside of Pages, you can select the file (or the folder it was originally in, if you've since deleted it) and enter Time Machine from the TM menu (it sounds like you've already tried this?)

  • How to do things Wrong, or the Playbook. A Catharsis.

    Dear Blackberry, I want to talk about your little beautiful tablet: The Playbook.
    This is a Catharsis, so don't take this personal, it isn't.
    I have one, I found it's hardware to be incredible. The OS (2.0) it's also fast and responsive. There are several thing really well done in it: multitasking, gestures, the way to close programs, how to reset, suspend and shutdown, and many, many others.
    But it have a problem, you hate your users. You hate them badly, because you don't know them, or ignore them on purpose (not sure yet).
    Let's talk about what can go wrong with such a good product, because there are a few levels of wrong.
    First wrong: the basic software
    Let's jump to OS 2.0 directly, because thinking on a tablet without a native contacts and mail client gives me the chills.
    Twitter. Amazing service eh? Even you have several accounts, in different languages and all. But you don't offer a free native twitter client. You have one, for ALL your phones, and it's good. Amazingly, you didn't port it to QNX, so we are all stuck with buying one, or use the web interface. Look at your great tablet, now grab the crappiest droid tablet with at least V2.3 of the OS. In one of those two tablets you have twitter out of the box. Hint: not in yours.
    Blackberry Messenger (BBM). Again, amazing service. I think that's the single feature of your products that make you sell about 1M phones in a 40M inhabitants country, mine. Really amazing. So, if you get a Blackberry, you have it, right? No, wrong. Not with the Playbook. And you know what? That makes the Playbook a LOT less appeal to LOTS of people. Apple copied you, and released a messaging application with iOS 5, for idevices only. At the same time them where releasing a tablet with a feature that copied from you (because it's a feature that sells products), you where dumping that feature. I'm wondering if you didn't want to sell tablets, but just show off the fact that you can make one if you want.
    Second wrong: connecting to PCs
    As far as I've used mildly advanced devices (phones, tablets, even a Palm!) they all connected to my computer as a Massive Storage Device. At least, all of them have the option easily available (with the Palm I had to install a tiny, free, third party program). But not the Playbook. Oh no. It must do it in the most obnoxious way an intelligent (and evil) engineer can create. A virtual USB network adapter? Browse through a virtual shared folder? It's hard to imagine the creative session in which such a devilish idea was devised: “Can you do it more difficult and obscure?” “I can make it connect as a virtual USB network device, but that's too far!” “Do it! mwahahahahaha!”
    So, I end up asking myself, Do you hate your users? I see that you are under heavy fire from US tech media, that clearly want you and other players (like Nokia) cold dead. I've read several reviews of your tablet and phones that didn't do justice to neither of them, but you seem to like to offer soft flanks to attacks.
    Some times it looks like as YOU don't believe in YOUR OWN platform as to migrate the most basic software, How do you expect third parties to do it? Make all your software (or the most used or otherwise important) available for the Playbook and other developers will follow, no the other way around.
    Reading forums and blogs I see some people believe that some of your most bizarre decisions, like the connecting to a PC monstrosity, are based in what CTOs or the like told you for security reasons. Aren't CTOs the ones happily jumping into the BYOD bandwagon because it's cheaper? Those are good clients to please while making all the others curse your ancestors, really a top notch strategic decision.
    You know, this era is becoming, in certain aspects, most bottom-up than top-down. Consumer decisions are every year more based in peers than in marketing (with the admirably exception of Apple, which we can discuss other day if you want). And companies aren't in the mood to argue with their userbase, especially if that is more expensive than to let them do what they want (ie. BOYD).
    Your users are the ones that uses your devices, not the ones that buys them. That leaves the CTOs and the like as an small subset of users, not the most important. If enough people in the company complains about crappy software and say that they want to use their drois or idevices for free, your CTO it's not going to argue much. And not having a native, preinstalled Twitter client, or having to go through a pain to simply connect the tablet to a PC are the kind of things about which users complain loudly.
    Times are changing, so should your bussiness model. Be smart and be quick. Don't be Nokia (Who, by the way now had all their flagship phones gone obsolete in a single press conference by Microsoft. Now MS just needs to delay WP8 a few months to bring Nokia to its knees. A smart move by Nokia, huh?).
    Be intelligent Blackberry, sharp your teeth and look what people will want to do with your tablet and phones and make the tablet and phones do that for them. After that, see how you can secure it to CTOs taste, but with user experience fixed in a high standard.
    It's a shame to see a giant and innovative company like you struggle against your own incompetence, or the incompetence of a highly positioned moron, not sure about that. It's the same with Nokia, they can't stop shooting their feet.
    Do yourself a favor, ask users what they want to do with their tablets, and make your tablets do so.
    My apologizes for all the moronic errors with my English, it's not my mother tongue and my proficiency left a lot to be desired.
    Greets,
    Anibal

    First, this forum is a peer to peer support community.  While RIM people do look in now and then they don't offer official support here.  It's possible some may read your post, though.
    I'm going to see if I can address your main concerns:
    Twitter:  There are several apps available in AppWorld.  Personally, I just use the web app supplied and it works just fine.  Additionally, you can download Android apps to your Playbook quite easily.  My favorite place to get them is from here:
    http://goodereader.com/apps/playbook/playbook-andr​oid-apps/
    BBM:  This service requires a BB data plan via a BlackBerry.  I bridge my PlayBook to my BlackBerry and can use BBM quite easily (though Groups are not yet supported.)
    Connecting to PC:  Please download the Desktop Software from www.blackberry.com/desktop
    Hopefully, this helps you some.  I much prefer my PlayBook over my iPad any day.  I have taken the time to research on the Internet and figure out how to convert my own Android apps over to PlayBook and it has given me some extra utilization.  It's not hard to do once you get everything set up.

  • How to make things visible offstage

    Hi all,
    I did it once before long ago, but can't remember how it worked;
    I'm trying to allow all things oitside of the stage peramiters to be visible in the browser screen so certain elements can be longer than the stage and still be shown. Any ideas? Can't remember if it's a flash thing or an html thing.
    Many thanks

    Either you are contradicting what you originally stated or just haven't made it clear...  this started with...
    "I'm trying to allow all things oitside of the stage peramiters to be visible in the browser screen "
    But now you're saying...
    "I just want elements to run off screen"
    You can't have both.

  • Music video/magnetic timeline - how to keep things in sync?

    I'm working on a wedding video that is set to music.  Certain parts of the song really belong with certain clips.  It would be great to park those clips over the song and have them always be connected to that point in the song.  But with the magnetic timeline, any adjustments made prior to that point in the song will move around the clips so they are no longer aligned where I want them to be.
    I love the benefits of the magnetic timeline except this...when you're really trying to set things to a music track, it seems impossible to really lock down transition points or align markers relative to the music and have them stick with further modification.
    Hopefully there is just something I'm missing about the way I should be working with it. 
    What are your workflows and tips for aligning video to specific points in an underlaying audio track throughout an entire project?

    So I started arranging my project where the music track was the primary storyline and all video is connected to it on a secondary storyline.  In theory this seems like it is working.  But there's one thing I can't seem to wrap my head around still.
    I would like to connect certain things to my secondary storyline (as if it were my primary storyline) such as B-roll and connected audio.  This way if I am adjusting things on this secondary storyline, these audio and/or B-roll clips remain in sync with the clip they belong to.
    Seems like turning these "connected" clips into a compound clip somewhat solves the issue, but I don't like two things about this method:
    1.  The different elements are not visible until you go into the compound clip.  This lack of visibility of the elements in the timeline bothers me.  I like to see the different "tracks" all at once.  (such as how in the image below I can see the two audio tracks connected to the video clip).
    2. If I connect all the clips (like in the image below) into a compound clip, I get one big clip that has blank video in front of and in back of the actual video.  This makes transitions and dealing with collisions difficult or impossible in and out of this video since this compound clip can't be added to the secondary storyline.
    What I would like to do is be able to anchor clips into a secondary storyline like you do to a primary storyline.  Is this possible?  How does one lock audio to a clip in a secondary storyline? 
    When video is on primary storyline, audio elements are connected to it.  As I move the video around, the audio remains where it should. I like this behavior.
    A compound clip of the two audio tracks and video track have black area before and after video, making transitions and adding it to the secondary storyline impossible.
    Any way to attach these audio clips to the secondary storyline without a compound clip?

  • How many clusterable things in JNDI tree?

    We're starting to try out clustering in WL 5.1 (sp8 on WinNT for now) We're
              seeing some odd behavior and we're wondering if the cause is related to JNDI
              replication messages. If we deploy just a couple of clusterable rmi
              services on two servers in a cluster, things seem to work ok. They maintain
              a connection to each other and can be viewed with the Admin console.
              However, if we deploy about 200 clusterable things (mostly EBs that by
              default have clusterable homes) then things get weird. If we just bring up
              one server, things aren't too bad. But when we bring up the second server,
              communication between the two servers is only established briefly before we
              get a "Timed out server" or something worse.
              Someone thought they had read a news post saying that it's not good to have
              large number of clusterable things in the JNDI tree because of all the
              replication messages caused by this. True? How many is too many? Thanks.
              

    JNDI replication messages only occur when the state of the JNDI tree changes --
              which is normally at server startup or shutdown. I would recommend pursuing
              this with support as I have been at sites that deployed more EJBs in a cluster
              than this without those problems.

    With perpetual product download like CS6 or previous version, the Adobe download assistant is used, with Creative Cloud the CC desktop App is used as interface to download the complete range of products of CC.
    In Adobe sites CC desktop download is available for trial too. After the trial if you decide to purchase it then the download has the option to serialize / subscription it .

  • How to add things permenantly to the class path?

    Greetings
    guys, I 'm using morena package(doesnot matter what it is), and when i need to execute my application i have to use things like this:
    java -cp examples\examples.jar;javatwain.jar -Xmx128M -Xbootclasspath/p:javatwain_license.jar RunExample
    please, is there any simple tutorial to understand this line and what it does exactly, and how can I run my application simply by using (java runexample). I know that things needed to be added to the classpath, and others to variables path; but how, what, and why etc...
    simply i cannot understand this all.

    the PATH is used by the operating system to determine where to look for files when no directory is give.
    It has nothing at all to do with Java, it just tells the operating system where it can find your java and javac (and others) when you type "java MyClass" (for example) on the command prompt.
    Anything not on the path can still be used by the operating system as long as you tell it exactly where to look.
    the CLASSPATH is used internally by Java to determine where it can find classes.
    It can contain directories and jar-files (PATH can contain only directories). The operating system does nothing with it (except telling java what it is when asked).
    Any class that can't be found on the classpath doesn't exist as far as java is concerned.
    So they perform similar roles but in a quite different context.

Maybe you are looking for
