Is it possible to select specific properties of multiple layers at once?

I know that you can alter, opacity for example, of multiple layers at the same time by selecting the opacity property of each layer. But what if there are so many layers that you want to select a single property of many layers at once?
For example, I want to edit the value of the "mask expansion" property of a lot of layers, but don't want to go through and select "mask expansion" on every single layer. Surely there must be a way to select specific properties across multiple layers?

No, unfortunately there isn't. Such stuff is based on the property control actually being visible and being equally visibly selected. Unless you linked it with expressions, it won't sync without the properties being revealed and selected.

? Flash CS4, Is it possible to adjust the length of multiple timelines at once?

Hi,
I am using Flash CS4. Is there any way to adjust the length of multiple timelines at once? I am doing an animation of leaves falling from a tree. The leaves alone have 17 separate timelines on separate layers plus each has it's own guide layer.
If I had the ability to to select all of the timelines together and adjust all of their respective start and end times at the same same time, relative to each other as well as separately, life would be so much easier!
Of course I can do it timeline by timeline, no problem, but I can't seem to adjust the length of more than one timeline at a time. (no pun intended)
Even when I select more than one timeline, the double arrow only adjusts the length of one timeline. Even each guide layer's length has to be adjusted separately. I understand the benefit of this, but, testing timing and making adjustments would be so much simpler and go so much faster if I could select and drag multiple timeline lengths at the same time.
Is there any way to do this?
I'm new to Flash so, thanks in advance for your patience with me!

Thanks! I had a feeling. It's nice to have the answer. Oh well, now I can get back to work and not waste any more time with that part of the puzzle. You've been very helpful and I'm sure your answer is correct. Wish I knew how to rate your answer even higher. Thanks again!

Is it possible to apply an adjustment to multiple images at once?

I'd like to be able to apply a simple Auto Enhance to multiple images. I don't see where that's possible, but maybe someone has an answer. Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry. I wrote wrong. .
Here are correct instructions:
To create this Effect:
- Select one Image with no adjustments.
- Apply Auto-Enhance by clicking the magic wand icon at the top right toolbar of the Adjustments Inspector.
- Click the Effects drop-down (to the left of the magic wand icon) and select "Save as Effect".
- Name the Effect (suggestion: "Auto-Enhance (built-in)").

Why can't I select an area across multiple layers in Photoshop?

I am trying to select an area on more than one layer and use the transform tool on only that area, leaving the rest of the image on the layers the same. According to all the forums I've checked it is said to be impossible to select an area on more than one layer in Photoshop. Although, I would think that after 5 or more versions of this program they would have figured it out by now. Adobe Flash, Illustrator, and Indesign can easily do this with more than 100 layers. So why not Photoshop? It seems like such a simple and useful task. Why would they leave it out of Photoshop?

HI,
Once upon a time when the Apple Discussions needed you to be at Level 4 (same Points) to access the Lounge several "Level 4s" of the time used to hold a Saturday (night for me) Chat.
Needeses to say I created a group in iChat itself and also in the Address Book.
The group in the Contacts app still exists.
Top to Bottom highlighting can be achieved with the Shift key before the second click (like elsewhere).
However you cannot drag the whole group to the "To" spot in Message and have it fill in all the names.
Also in Messages creating a New Message then using the blue + icon and attempting to select the whole Group (They show up here) only grabs the first Click and ignores the Shift key modifier.
Using a Buddy List and at least those on Line then the Shift Key and a double click on one of the highlighted Buddies enters all the Names in the "To" spot.
In Mail dragging a group from Contacts to the "To" field seems to require a bit of a lucky drop when the green + icon appears.
It also seems to depend "where" the email is in the Address Card.
I was using a different Group but it was still based on iChat/Messages buddies.
Some display older @mac.com in the IM section under AIM and these don't make the "transfer".
Mail is not my strong point and there maybe some other way to get multiple people in the "To" field without doing one at a time.

Possible to apply Match Color to multiple layers in one go?

Hi there,
I have to deal with multiple layer documents for producing underwater mosaics. Very often, the images vary in colors a bit. For large mosaics, I run the images thru a batch job before I use them. For smaller mosaics (e.g. just 10 to 20 images), this is a bit of overkill, in case I have to tweak just 5 or 10 or so.
In this case, I prefer picking one of the 20 layers as my "reference" and manually match the colors of those layers, that need the match, one by one.
My question now: Is there a way, that I could select, lets say 10 layers that need the match and apply the Match Color to all of them in one go?
Thanks for ideas,
g

Will have a look there, did not think about scripting so far ... since I never scripted
Thanks,

Dragging To Select Multiple Layers In Document Window?

I've looked this up but can't seem to make it work. I want to select the 6 or 7 layers that make up a picture in my file. I'm working with a file someone else created so there are dozens of layers, which makes it hard to select just a few from the Layers Pallete.
Is there an easy way to select all the constituent layers of a particular item on the document window? I've tried ho0lding Shift down while trying to select all the layers, but that isn't effective because the layers are on top of eachother. Is there no way I can drag my mouse and have Photoshop select every layer that is complete inside the dragged area?
Thanks.
Ken

Ken, Marek's response is correct with regard to selecting, (read: targeting), layers in the Layers Panel.This is good if you need to apply a transformation to the contents of multiple layers simultaneously, use alignment/distribution features on those layers, or merge them.
Your description of what you're attempting, however, suggests you want to select the pixels residing on particular layers. The way you're doing it isn't the way it works. What you want can be done, but not in the image window. In the Layers Panel, Ctrl+Click on the layer thumbnail of the first layer you want selected, (you should see the actuated selection in the form of 'marching ants' surrounding the layer's non-transparent pixels...in the image), then add the Shift key and Shift+Ctrl+Click on the layer thumbnail of each of the additional layers to subsequently add their non-transparent pixels to the selection.
Note that all you're doing here is making a selection, as opposed to selecting the contents of multiple layers. Such a selection can only target a single layer, and any pixel-altering operation you apply with this selection active will only affect one layer...not all those that may have contributed to the additive selection-building process described.

Is it possible to select a part of a video project and only render that specific part?

Hi.
I formerly used Sony Vegas Pro - and I'm in the process of getting into Final Cut Pro X, and I'm wondering...
In Sony Vegas Pro - I was able to mark a part of my video project, and only render that. It was usefull if I wanted to send a part of a project rendered to someone else for review etc.
In Final Cut Pro X I can't find a similar possibility - I have to render my complete video project - or nothing at all.
Does anyone know if it's possible to select a part of a project and render only that part?
Best regards
Jens Rosenstand

Hi.
Well...that's not quite what I meant...
I would like to render a part of a video to a .MOV file for example - that I can send of to someone to watch - but the whole project, just a part of it.
Is that possible?

How to select specific rows in rtf template for complex calculation

Hi,
I want custom calculation in my rtf template and for this i need to select specific cell's value OR specific row's value. Any one please suggest how can I get this. Below is the example i have plotted using excel. My target is to get field 8 and 9 using sum and minus. We can calculate column over column, is there any way to calculate row over row? If I use variables, then i have to create so many variables because I have more columns and rows to calculate (here i posted one sample table). Any one please help me how can I get expected result other than using variables! If "Using variables" is the only way then also give your valuable opinions.

Hi AlexAnd,
Thanks for the reply, I got 0 using both codes. This is a dummy table and I plotted 3,4 to give an idea of row number (as like as excel). Rows are individual data sets combining different measures and dimensions with different values.

Is there any way to identify the range or individual cell's value? Using variables I have to create lots of variables for each cells, I want to avoid that and want to use rows in calculation! Is that possible, Pls share your valuable opinions!

Multi-Provider Provider-Specific Properties for Navigational Attributes

Experts,
I need to over-ride the naming for a navigational attribute in a multi-provider.
For non-navigational attributes you simply use the Provider-Specific Properties. This selection is not available for navigational attributes.
Is there a different way to apply alternative naming to navigational attributes in a Mult-Provider without affecting the global definition in the base cube.
Thanks in advance

No - the users want their own verions of the name as default
Thanks for the reply

Reset provider-specific properties back to default

Hello community, I could use some quick help with something. I have changed the Description of an characteristic specific to a DSO (when in change mode in the DSO, right-click characteristic, select "Provider-specific properties", and change Description). I now want to reset that back to the default characteristic description.
I have tried clearing the value in Description, but that doesn't work. Any ideas how to do this?
Thanks,
Dustin

Hi,
if not yet the saved the DSO after changing description it will show old description.
after save the DSO it will show the new description.
you want old description again go to change mode -> give the old description -> save.
Thanks,
Phani.

Infoobject Specific Properties

Hi All,
I'm trying to create a multiprovider based on an IfoCube which has the characterics with navigational attributes but when i select that infocube for the multiprovider then cube doesnt show those 2 charactericstics and the navigational attributes to drag and drop to include in the MP.
Can anyone please let me know if I'm missing anything?
Also for these 2 objects I see that under the InfoObject Specific Properties below is the selection value.
Selection = 4 not allowed
I'm not sure what exactly this property is and also whether it is restricting to show those 2 characteristics?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
PMR Reddy

Can please answer this.
"Also for these 2 objects I see that under the InfoObject Specific Properties below is the selection value.
Selection = 4 not allowed
I'm not sure what exactly this property is and also whether it is restricting to show those 2 characteristics?
Assuming as your creating new multiprovider.
You said as 24 chars are selected as navigational at cube level.
Can you the 2 info objects which your not seeing at multiprovider level have marked as navigational at cube level?
You said selection = 4? what is this and where you seen.
can you share screen shot, how your creating a multi provider.
Are you familiar with creating of multiprovider?

Creating an index: it's not possible to select a tablespace for the index

Hi,
we are using SQL-Developer Version 3.0.04.
When creating an index it's not possible to select a tablespace for the index. The only choice which is offered by SQL-Developer is <DEFAULT>.
The user itself has privileges on several other tablespaces - and therefore not just only on the default tablespace of the user.
Any help will be appreciated

JH

Hi JH,
Well, the capability is somewhat buried in the UI, but it is there.
In the Create Index dialog ...
1. Tick the "Advanced" check-box in the upper right-hand corner.
2. Select "Properties" from the left-hand list (Definition, Properties, Partitions, DDL).
3. Click the Storage Options... button
4. Use the drop-down list to select the desired tablespace.
Return to (2.) and select DDL to see that your tablespace choice is present.
Regards,
Gary
SQL Developer Team
Edited by: Gary Graham on Mar 7, 2012 5:06 PM
And if all you see in the drop-down list is <DEFAULT>, then I would suggest rechecking the user's privileges. Or provide more details about your environment: OS / Database / JDK version, and so on.

Selecting Specific Records for a Report

I have a report that requires 16 unique records to be displayed when the report is run. The table holds thousands of records but the Daily Report only wants the records that have 16 unique entries for that specific period. Is it possible to select these records only ? Cannot be by date because the entries could have been made anytime during the past 24 hours.
Ron Smith

Hi Ron,
Can you filter it with your max(readingfield)
and, perhaps, a case statement.
Select Tabel.Meter
Case "West" : "A''
Case "East" : "B"
or use Wallie's idea of an "in" statement
Maybe you can use max(readingfield) in a sub select
of the where clause.
where table.date = (select max(readingfield) from table)
or, if each meter has a different max(readingfield) , then pull each one
in separately.
or, create a view that pulls in the TOP 16 meters and link that
to the table. This should work if all else fails.
I hope this helps,
The Panda
