Image preview in Open dialog window (Photoshop CS6)

Hi
We had a possibility to see images preview in Open File dialog window of Photoshop CS5 but in new CS6 version there is not such possibility. Should I forget about that nice option and use Mini Bridge?

I'm not so sure it was on purpose or not Noel. Especially since it's still there in Illustrator and Indesign. If it weren't for it being in those, I might think it was intentional. Then again, it could very well be Adobe trying really hard to push MiniBridge, which is almost utterly useless. I think they actually made the minibridge WORSE as well. The sizing issues of the thumbnails on that are a pain and minibridge is just plain cumbersome to run. Anyways, besides my many qualms with minibridge itself, and back on the open dialog box thing...I actually watched a youtube video pointing out the same codecs you're talking about and without the PSD functionality, it's pretty useless. I'm a graphic designer, so I don't really use PS for camera image editing and don't mess with those files that the codec helps with. Even if it did, that still isn't very helpful to me. Because at that point, you're pretty much just doing what Bridge/MIniBridge does. However, consider how I, and many other designers in the print field work: At any given point we might have something like 3 different versions of a file; a PSD (with layers to edit), a JPEG (to send to the customer for proofing), and a PDF (for printing). Now, within that customer folder I might have 50+ files of different jobs. Imagine trying to sift through all those thumbnails, scrolling across window upon window, and when you get to the file you're finally looking for, you click it open to just to see that you opened the jpeg instead of the PSD. Now, in LIST view, I can see many more files on one screen and each file type is represented by an icon. So I know the blue icons are Photoshop icons and it's very easy to skim through there and know exactly which file type I'm looking for without peering at extensions. Get what I'm saying? Not that I don't appreciate you trying to help. Just saying, unless any codec can bring back the preview screen....than I don't see a workaround until Adobe flat out FIXES IT. I'm one of those guys that loves to get the newest thing and give it time to work, but if they don't fix it, I might have to call up Adobe and demand a downgrade on my Photoshop to 5.5, cause it really slows my workflow when I have hundreds of files to keep up with, and any new feature in PS CS6 that might have sped up my work is offset by not being able to do such a remedial task as preview my files before opening them.

Open dialog window closes suddenly on Illustrator and Photoshop

Hello,
open dialog window closes suddenly on Illustrator and Photoshop

PPI is the correct word for an image's resolution.
As for printing: ask the service provider what's best for their workflow. It totally depends on the process, on the hardware, on the paper and on the size of the print.
For video: use screen resolution unless you want to enlarge the footage in the video.
Additionally:
read the manual of the video software in use
read about printing:

I am able to click on a picture in iPhoto to edit it opens automatically in photoshop cs6. However when i am done editing I can not save that image back into iPhoto. Can anyone help with a setting I am missing maybe?

I am able to click on a pic in iphoto to edit it and opens automatically in photoshop CS6. However when I am done editing and save I can not save back into Iphoto. Can any one help wiht this?

Thanks Terence. What a relief. I still don't understand what the book I read was talking about then. Here's a quote from the section I was referring to in "iPhoto 08: The Missing Manual" book, p 91 (ISBN: 0596-516185):
"Note, however, that the instant you edit a TIFF-format photo (Chapter 7), iPhoto converts it into JPEG.
That's fine if you plan to order prints or a photo book (Chapter 11) from iPhoto, since JPEG files are required for those purposes. But if you took that once-in-a-lifetime, priceless shot as a TIFF file, don't do any editing in iPhoto-don't even rotate it- if you hope to maintain its perfect, pristine quality."
After my test results, I thought maybe this was something that had changed from iPhoto 08 to iPhoto 09, so I went to the bookstore yesterday and checked the same book for iPhoto 09, and there it was, the same quote! (on a different page, of course).
Anyway, thanks once again for your confirmation that my test was indeed correct. Linda

Script to open the Open Dialog Window

Hello everyone!
I'm new to scripting and this is probably an easy question but I'm trying to write a script that opens the Open Dialog Window. Basically I need to start the script in one active document, have the script open the Open Dialog (to let the user select another image) and then finish the script in the newly opened document. Every script I find is to open a specific file, but I need it to be User Selected through the Open Dialog of Photoshop.
I hope that makes sense! LOL. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Bradi

Is this also possible to simply open the "Find and Replace" dialog in Illustrator & then close it?
No need to do anything with "Find and Replace" just want to open it then have it close to avoid an Illustrator bug.

Opening files in Photoshop CS6

Yesterday, before closing down, I uninstalled P/S 7, CS2 and CS3 to gain space, but do not know whether that action is relevant to my problem. Today I find that Jpegs will not open in Photoshop, and in Bridge only by going through Camera Raw. Photoshop will open tiffs, while Bridge will open some, but not all tiffs, through Camera Raw only. This problem follows many months of trouble-free operation of CS6.
My operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate. I have downloaded the latest patches for CS6, and have set the Bridge Preferences item on File Associations to Default.
Please, can someone throw light on this mystery?

Thank you, Curt Y, I will certainly investigate your solution
Best wishes,
John Rivers

Save As & Open Dialog Window for some documents hangs when custom VSTO plugin is installed

Hello,
I have created a VSTO application which uploads a word document to Document Management Server. The problem is not with this plugin, but after the plugin is installed, for certain documents when user makes some modification to the document and clicks on File
-> Save As or File ->Open, the Save As/Open Dialog window, does not show up and the Word application will be hung (spinning) as it should do if the Save As dialog window would have been shown. The only option is then to kill the WinWord process
from Task Manager. When I kill the WinWord process from task manager, I see the Save As Dialog window appear for a split second before the WinWord Process shuts down.
If I uninstall the VSTO application, everything works fine.
Details on the application:
Target Framework: .NET Framework 4
Platform Target: x86
OS (Developer and End User): Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 64 bit
Microsoft Office: Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 Version: 14.0.6129.5000 (32-bit)
Help!!

Hi Eugene,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes I have tried an empty add-in project as well. Added a label to the ribbon and displayed a static text. I am able to reproduce the issue with this add-in as well. The issue is only reproducable if I deploy the add-in using a setup and deployment project.
While building the project, Visual Studio installs the add-in by default. If I open the problematic documents with the "developement" version of the add-in installed, it seems to be working fine.

Yogesh

Since it could be reproduced if you deploy any add-in with a setup project, it seems this issue may be related to the your environment.
It will be helpful if you could share the following information with us.
The configuration about that setup project and your add-in.
Whether your user account has admin privilege or not.
To narrow down this issue, you could consider installing that add-in with setup project in a clean machine.
If it could reproduce this issue, then we could focus on that setup project instead.
If not, then we'd better focus on your environment to narrow down this issue.

so much wrong with this post...
a) use the code tags to format the code. Now it is an unreadable mess
b) scriptlets in your JSP. I don't even want to look at that mess. Learn how to combine servlets and JSPs to create clean, readable and maintainable code in which view logic and business logic are separated. The rule: no java code in your JSP, only tags and EL expressions (learn about JSTL).
So you get a blank screen. When you do "view source" in your browser, do you see anything there? If nothing, check if you are behind a proxy server. The solution to a post of not too long ago was that the blank screen was being caused by faulty proxy server settings (the user figured it out himself, I don't know what was done to solve it).
If all this fails you will have to do some debugging magic using your favorite IDE. It will probably be something stupid you are overlooking in the code. It is annoying, but debugging code that does not work is a big part of your job. Better get good at it.

30EA3 - Windows: incorrect "mydocument" path in File- Open dialog window

Hi,
I have noticed this error in previous versions as well. On windows, users can change the default mydocument path. After the change, all windows file dialogues with the 'mydocuments' shortcut open the new, changed directory.
In SQL Developer, the File->Open dialog window has a 'My Documents' shortcut which uses the constant path C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents. Instead of this shortcut, the program should lookup the real value of the Mydocuments path and should open the correct directory.
Regards,
Gellért
Edited by: user641632 on 2011.01.20. 1:30

Thats true. We use use the default.
We could look at the registry and check HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders for the "My Documents" if it is set.

Hi, I want to open dialog window with ADF Faces

Hi, I want to open dialog window with ADF Faces when commandButton pressed, but the window opended at same window, not opened new window.
my command button is follow,
<af:commandButton text="Ücret Girişi"

id="rez_iptal"
action="dialog:ucret"
windowHeight="200"
windowWidth="300"/>
I am waiting your help....

Remove the partialSubmit attribute from the declaration of your command button. Therefore, the code you posted should be:
<af:commandButton text="Ücret Girişi"
binding="#{backing_rezervasyonlar.rez_iptal}"
id="rez_iptal"
action="dialog:ucret"
useWindow="true"
windowHeight="200"
windowWidth="300"/> NOT:
<af:commandButton text="Ücret Girişi"
binding="#{backing_rezervasyonlar.rez_iptal}"
id="rez_iptal"
action="dialog:ucret"
partialSubmit="true"
useWindow="true"
windowHeight="200"

But, this File Open Dialog windows is not getting recorded using SHDB.
Please help me how to solve this problem.

Hi,
I doubt you can record the file open functionality in BDC.
if there is any field which requries file path and directory better make it uniform and hard code it.

Windows 7/Bridge won't open files in Photoshop CS6 (cloud)

I recently got the cloud CS6 and installed photoshop cs6, then uninstalled CS5.5. But now, Windows Explorer cannot seem to find Photoshop. If I try to associate the default for any file (.jpeg, .tiff, etc.) with Photoshop, Photoshop does not show up on the list of programs. I must browse to find Photoshop exe (CS6 64). I click okay, but it continues to open the file in Windows picture viewer and to associate that file type with Windows Picture Viewer.
If I right-click on the file, it does exactly the same thing. I must browse to Photoshop.exe. But it still opens the file in Windows Picture Viewer.
Fix 1 Try Bridge Associations: I opened Bridge CS6->Edit>Preferences and made sure the files were associated with photoshop. But, when I then try to open the files from within Bridge, I get the message Windows cannot find c:Program Files\Adobe\AdobePhotoshop CS4 (64Bit)\Photoshop.exe. (my emphasis) But I haven't had CS4 installed for years. I did not have this problem when I installed CS5. So now I can't open files from either Windows explorer or Adobe Bridge.
Fix 2 Fix the Registry: So, I opened Regedit and went to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\Photoshop.exe\shell\open\command, and changed the (Default) from "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1" to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1" . Don't know why the install left this at CS5.1. It SHOULD have changed it. EUREKA! Windows now recognizes Photoshop CS6 and I can associate files with it as usual. But I had to manually associate the native .psd file with Photoshop. along with .jpeg, .tiff and other image files.
No Fix for Bridge: But back in Bridge CS6, it's not so rosy. I still get Windows cannot find c:Program Files\Adobe\AdobePhotoshop CS4 (64Bit)\Photoshop.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. If I try File--Open with--Photoshop (default), I get the same message. Clearly, Bridge thinks Photoshop CS4 is the default, and I don't know where to change that association. Preferences does not allow browsing. So Bridge is pretty much useless.
So what should I do about Bridge?
Bridge CS6 still won't open Photoshop CS6. It's still looking for CS4. I thought about reinstalling Bridge, but when I try to download it, the cloud tells me it is is already installed and won't download. I am a little worried about uninstalling it and trying again. Maybe, I'll end up with no Bridge at all. I am beginning to regret my decision to go cloud. Don't know if the install mess is just cloud or noncloud versions as well. Doesn't seem to apply to all programs either.
Postcript:
I had to go to the registry and manually change CS5.1 to CS6 for InDesign and Illustrator as well, and then manually associate .indd and .ai files with those programs. What a pain this is. Obviously, the install program didn't change the normal associations to CS6. Left them with the CS5, and then when I uninstalled that--as anyone would normally do--it lost the association completely.

Thank you David__B! Your suggestion worked perfectly. All the files are correctly associated in both Explorer and Bridge. And it didn't take all that long, mostly uninstalling. The Adobe App Manager very efficiently installs several different programs with very little fuss.
I am not sure, but I think it may have been an old plug-in to Bridge back in the CS4 era that I didn't even know I had that was causing the Bridge file association problems. Uninstalling CS5 after installing CS6 seems to be causing Win Explorer problems, not just for me. Based on this experience, I would recommend that anyone with several previous installations of Adobe CS do the following:
Save your plugins and preference files in a back up file.
Uninstall all the old adobe software.
Run the the cleaner you suggested. (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html).
Install CS6 programs from the CCloud or wherever.
Add your plug-ins back in as you need them one at a time to be sure they work.
If you have already installed CS6 and are having file association problems, just uninstall everything and start at step one. You probably won't save time trying to fix the registry and manually associate file types--- yada yada yada.
Steps 1-6 will give you a nice clean install and salvage only good plug-ins.

Is there a way to open an image in camera raw from within photoshop cs6 (on a PC)?

is there a way to open an image in camera raw within photoshop cs6 (on a PC)? or do I have to use bridge to do this?
Thanks....

Just open the camera raw file, and it will open in the ACR plugin.

I only see portions of my images when opening them in Photoshop CS6

Opening the images (.psd and .NEF) in camera raw presents no problems. The problem occurs when I then select OPEN to open them in Photoshop.

This is a GPU/driver problem. Update your drivers.
You can also turn off "use graphics processor" in preferences/performance. But doing this you will loose some functions of OpenGL.
