Is it possible to apply a saved adjustment preset to a mask

I am photographing an old photo album that has many badly faded photos. In Aperture I want to be able to apply the same adjustments to the photos on each page without changing the page that they are 'stuck' to. I can do it with the standard presets but not my saved ones!! Any ideas?

You could make several duplicates of the image in Aperture, then crop each of those duplicates to the individual photo you want to adjust, then apply your adjustments.
Otherwise, you'll need a program which would allow you to make detailed masks, such as Photoshop or Pixelmator. With one of those programs, you could isolate each image with a mask and individually apply adjustments/filters on each one without affecting the "border" areas.

Saving adjustment layers with layer mask

Hello -
I need to be able to save a curves adjustment layer WITH its layer mask.
I have written a longish automatic applescript to process image files that are all identical in pixel dimension. Part of the script relies on Photoshop, where a number of actions take place. In one of the Photoshop actions, I need to load an adjustment layer with a precise layer mask. I realize that if a layer mask file is open I could write an action to load a selection from that file, but I very much want to avoid keeping a second file open, or forcing PS to open and close that file.
Is there a simple way to "load" a layer mask into an adjustment layer?
Thanks,
- M

Maybe you could do something like this...
if(documents.length){
CurveLayer();
colourMask();
function colourMask(){
selectMask(true);
var black = new SolidColor();
black.rgb.hexValue = '000000';
var Width = activeDocument.width.as('px');
var Height = activeDocument.height.as ('px');
var stripWidth = Width/12;
var Left = 0;
var Top = 0;
var Right =stripWidth;
var Bottom = Height/2;
for (var a =0;a<12;a++){
    activeDocument.selection.select([[Left,Top],[Right,Top],[Right,Bottom],[Left,Bottom]], SelectionType.REPLACE, 0, false);
   if( a % 2) activeDocument.selection.fill(black);
    Left +=stripWidth;
    Right +=stripWidth;
var Left = 0;
var Top = Height/2;
var Right =stripWidth;
var Bottom = Height;
for (var a =0;a<12;a++){
    activeDocument.selection.select([[Left,Top],[Right,Top],[Right,Bottom],[Left,Bottom]], SelectionType.REPLACE, 0, false);
   if(a % 2){}else{ activeDocument.selection.fill(black);}
    Left +=stripWidth;
    Right +=stripWidth;
activeDocument.selection.deselect();
selectMask(false);
function CurveLayer() {
    var desc3 = new ActionDescriptor();
        var ref1 = new ActionReference();
        ref1.putClass( charIDToTypeID('AdjL') );
    desc3.putReference( charIDToTypeID('null'), ref1 );
        var desc4 = new ActionDescriptor();
            var desc5 = new ActionDescriptor();
            desc5.putEnumerated( stringIDToTypeID('presetKind'), stringIDToTypeID('presetKindType'), stringIDToTypeID('presetKindDefault') );
        desc4.putObject( charIDToTypeID('Type'), charIDToTypeID('Crvs'), desc5 );
    desc3.putObject( charIDToTypeID('Usng'), charIDToTypeID('AdjL'), desc4 );
    executeAction( charIDToTypeID('Mk '), desc3, DialogModes.NO );
function selectMask(BOOL) {
    var desc184 = new ActionDescriptor();
        var ref84 = new ActionReference();
        ref84.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('Chnl'), charIDToTypeID('Chnl'), charIDToTypeID('Msk ') );
    desc184.putReference( charIDToTypeID('null'), ref84 );
    desc184.putBoolean( charIDToTypeID('MkVs'), BOOL );
    executeAction( charIDToTypeID('slct'), desc184, DialogModes.NO );

Is it possible to apply a stroke effect to a Photoshop image in After Effects?

Hello,
I've imported an image (a maze) from Photoshop into AE, and I want the image to appear as if it's being drawn in using the Stroke animation. Is it possible to apply some kind of path along which the image can "fill in"--similar to how you can do this with text? I didn't see a way to convert the image into a shape layer on which I could apply the Stroke effect, either.
Thanks to everyone who's been so helpful in these forums--I've gotten a lot of questions answered by y'all!
meredith

Followed everything you said up until using the solid as a track matte, where I got a little confused.
The effect worked more or less how I wanted when I set the starting value of the stroke at 100% and set track matte of my original image to Alpha Inverted. When I did this, it gave the effect that the solid was disappearing to reveal the original image, if that makes any sense.
Is there anyway to adjust the brush shape? Right now it is a circle, is it possible to change it into a square? The circle brush gives an awkward edge line as the lines of the image begin to appear with the stroke effect.
Thanks!

I have two faults! 1, an error comes up in Ps CC 2014 "could not apply the saved panel configuration, restring to default and my tools have disappeared completely and anything ive tried I cannot get them back not even the drop down menu in 'window' helps

I have two faults! 1, an error comes up in Ps CC 2014 "could not apply the saved panel configuration, restring to default and my tools have disappeared completely and anything ive tried I cannot get them back not even the drop down menu in 'window' helps at all. And 2, Lr everytime I load it up it gives me the option to retry or switch to and it takes a while for me to even get anywhere with it I think it has something to do with the catalogs? I've been using these programs for a few years now on a Mac...no problem but when I use a PC when I'm away coz it's the (only) comp available these happen PC's are so useless! Please can anyone help??...

I can give a few suggestions on Photoshop CC 2014, but Lightroom is a separate forum and you should ask Lr questions there.
First close Photoshop.
Then start Photoshop by double-clicking on it's icon and very quickly after that, hold down the ctrl-alt-shift keys until you see the reset dialog. answer "Yes" to delete settings, and let Photoshop continue to load.
It's tricky to do and may take a few tries, but at least it should reset Photoshop CC 2014 to defaults.

Is it possible to apply a condition on a single column?

Morning All,
Is it possible to apply a condition on a single column? My aim is to create a report that has multiple PTD columns, each based on a different Version ID.
I've tried creating a calculation using the case statement shown below, however I get a blank column with nothing in: CASE WHEN VERSION_ID = ‘10’ THEN BALANCES.PTD END
I know this can be done through a DB view/custom folder, however I’m looking for a solution that can be created in Desktop / Plus.
Cheers,
Lance

OK. Hope this explains the problem well.
This is the Crosstab Report without Annual Budget Column which looks great, all figures correct.
http://vodashare.com/show.php/2929_Pic1.jpg
After Adding Annual Budget column,
http://vodashare.com/show.php/2930_Pic2.jpg
This is the Table version of the above report with Annual Budget column
http://vodashare.com/show.php/2931_Pic3.jpg
Calculation Used for Annual Budget is
SUM(( CASE WHEN ( ( Actual Flag = 'B' ) AND ( Status <> 'C' ) )
THEN ( NVL(Period To Date Cr,0)-NVL(Period To Date Dr,0) )
ELSE 0 END ))
OVER(PARTITION BY Account,"Period Year" )
According to the conditions ( Actual Flag = 'B' ) AND ( Status <> 'C' ), amount is calculated adding the (Cr – Dr) amount when these conditions are satisfied. But, How can I make sure the value is displayed only for rows that these conditions are satisfied?
As you can see, it also displays the columns where Actual Flag != 'B' and Status = ‘C’
Also, I wonder why the Crosstab worksheet with Annual Budget doesn’t display some of the amounts (Ex: for Account 301010, no Annual Budget is displayed where as in Tabular worksheet it is $5721017.50) and for the amounts displayed, why are they displayed at different levels of Sub Accounts?
Note: I do get a warning when I Add the Annual Budget to worksheet.
'You are combining a detail data point with an aggregate data point This may give you unexpected results'. But I am not using any detail items as data points.(not considering Status and Actual Flag, got same message even after removing those)
Please let me know if you find a solution for your requirement Lance, that would help me.

How to apply multiple saved headings/footers to a document?

Good afternoon!
I hope this 1) isn't a duplicate question (I searched for similar problems before posting) and 2) isn't the case of stupid human error I suspect it is.
Basically, I've created and saved five or six different header/footers that I need to apply to a document. After opening my document, I follow the following steps:
1. Document -> Header & Footer -> Add -> Apply first saved header
2. Save document
3. Document -> Header & Footer -> Add -> Click "Add New" -> Apply second saved header
At the point where I choose the second saved header, the header I applied first disappears in the preview window, and as soon as I apply the second saved header, it overwrites the first header entirely rather than coexisting with it on the page.
Is there a way to make multiple saved headers/footers exist simultaneously in a single document? I know you can add new headers/footers by hand to a document with existing headers/footers as described in the Acrobat Help File, but I have scores of documents to apply these to, so I wanted to use saved settings together with a batch job.
I hope that's all clear, but please let me know if there's any confusion as to what I've done/need to do.
Thank you so much in advance for your assistance.
JMW
P.S.
All PDFs were created using Adobe Acrobat/Distiller 8.0 and Framemaker 9.0 on Windows XP SP4.

Bon Dias,
If the values for Top, Bottom, Left, and Right are the same in the Margin pane of each saved setting's "Add Header and Footer" dialog you may want to consider making each saved setting's Margin setup different.
Be well...

It is possible to apply redo while the standby is open in read only mode ?

Hi,
I am using Oracle 11g R2 (11.2.0.1.0)
Step 1: Two node RAC is Configured.
Step 2: One node Data Guard RAC is configured.( i,e Standby is one node RAC).

OPEN_MODE DATABASE_ROLE PROTECTION_MODE PROTECTION_LEVEL
READ WRITE PRIMARY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY
Standby:
SQL> select open_mode,database_role,PROTECTION_MODE,PROTECTION_LEVEL from v$database;
OPEN_MODE DATABASE_ROLE PROTECTION_MODE PROTECTION_LEVEL
READ ONLY WITH APPLY PHYSICAL STANDBY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY
Question:
I have not purchased active dataguard license.
In my case In Data Guard RAC it is possible to apply redo while the database is open in read only mode?
Thanks

"READ ONLY WITH APPLY" in V$DATABASE.OPEN_MODE means Active Data Guard is enabled.
Oracle code cannot check if you have the right license: it is up to you to know which license you have for your database environments.

Is it possible to apply conditional formatting to a cell (or range) based upon a LOOKUP query to cell values in another sheet.? I want to alter the formatting (i.e., text and/or cell background color), but not cell content.

Is it possible to apply conditional formatting to a cell (or range) based upon a LOOKUP query to cell values in another sheet.?
I want to alter the formatting (i.e., text and/or cell background color), but not the content, of the target cell(s).

Hi Tom,
Your LOOKUP formula will return a value that it finds in the "other" table. That value can be used in conditional highlighting rules. (Numbers 3 calls it conditional highlighting, not conditional formatting. Just to keep us awake, I guess, but it works the same).
Please explain what you are trying to do.

Ian.

FRM-40400: Transaction complete: 1 records applied and saved

Dear All,
Hope all of you are doing well,
Pls go through my problem...
here is an application developed based on Oracle Forms & Reports 6i.
I wrote a code, like for some specific Users, various permissions.
Ex: User A (Payroll Person), User B (HR)
for employee Master Data HR is the right person to modify master data and all the remain are not permissible.
I query one person (from Non HR user), try to modify Master Data then it given user defined message -
"you are not authorized person to modify Master Data" [OK] - so no changes done
then I clicked the Query button directly,
it gave the message - "Do you want to save the changes you have made" [Yes] [No] [Cancel]
when I clicked Yes :
" FRM - 40400 : Transaction complete : 1 records applied and saved "
In database also it is saving the record..
Mean for unotherised user also It's modifying the data.
Please help me the way to handle this issue..
Thanks in Advance...

As salamualikum, Md Sirajoddin

That means your code works in some condition. Right ?
Place your code at Pre-Commit trigger at form level.
Hope this helps

Is it possible to apply putClientProperty() to the entire GUI?

Is it at all possible to apply something like: putClientProperty to the entire GUI rather then a specific object?
I dislike the java style, and prefer to have my layout as the windows style, but don't know how to do this rather then setting each gui element to windows style...

        try {
               UIManager.setLookAndFeel(

          } catch (Exception e) {}This should change Swing UI to Windows Look & Feel (if your runing on windows).

Is it possible to apply service packs to NW04s ABAP Sneak Preview?

Service Pack 7 to NW04s contains the DEMO_REGEX_TOY, which I'd like to install in my ABAP sneak preview system. I have some questions about that:
1. Is it possible to apply maintenance to the Sneak Preview?
2. What service packages need to be isntalled to upgrade the sneak preview rel/level from 7/5 to 7/7: 6 and then 7, or just 7? That is, are those service packs cumulative?
3. I am unable to download the service packs from https://service.sap.com using the download manager. I get an error in the trace output that says, "Unable to Find Certification Path." I have no idea what that means, or how to circumvent that problem. Is there an alternative way to get the Service Packs?
Thanks for any help/guidance you all can provide!

Thanks.
I did manage to download the packs. For others who may have similar difficulties, the solution to my download problem was to specify (in IE) http://service.sap.com as a trusted site. That allowed Download Manager to get the files.
I'll also add that I successfully applied packs 6 & 7, as well as SP 70020 (required to update SPAM before applying pack 7) and am now in business!
(Not sure I have the correct terminology for those - here's the file names I applied: KB70006.CAR, KB70007.CAR, KD70020.CAR)

How to Create and apply adjustment preset for printing

How can I create an adjustment preset that I can apply to images before I print? In Photoshop CS3, it's easy: I just create an action. But how do I apply a preset that simply shifts existing settings a relative amount instead of applying absolute settings that overwrite image-specific settings?
The problem is that my Epson R1800 and its profiles output images that have a yellow shift to them. What I want to be able to do is apply a +5 shift to the shadow tint (camera calibration) and a +10 shift to the WB tint on top of whatever settings I already have after development.
Any ideas?
(and yes, I do use colour management, my monitor is calibrated, and I instruct LR2 to manage colour and use the profile specific to my printer, paper, and print quality setting)

No ideas here? Surely someone must have wanted to apply an adjustment to compensate for a printer's tendencies or the different dmax, shadow detail, and colour temperature of various papers and illuminant sources (incandescent vs daylight fluorescent, sunlight), or at least use different tone / contrast settings or different amounts of sharpening (before the new print sharpening facility appeared in LR2).

Aperture creates a new version every time i apply a new adjustment!!!

1.5.6. is my aperture version. and recently it started to create a new version every time i apply a new adjustment. It's not the biggest bother for a couple of images, but for documenting a whole event with 300 images...well that might be a... mighty issue! How do I get this to stop? Any ideas?
