Is there a way to use Photoshop's field blur, iris blur or tilt shift blur straight on AE?

I want to use photoshop's selective blur effects on several footage. I know I might import the footage on Photoshop and just apply the effect on the video sequence, but this workflow is rather incomfortable for a whole bunch of clips.
Is there a way to use either those filters or reproduce their behavior straight on AE?

You can pretty much recreate all of them using effects like Compound Blur or Camera lens Blur wit ha custom matte and you can expand this further by getting a plug-in suite like REvisionFX' SmoothKit where you have even more sophisticated adaptive blurs.

Is there a way to use Photoshop's brush in Flash ?

Hello. I've always said that drawing with my Bamboo Create & Touch was good but wasn't the same as drawing in the real life. In fact, this brings me a lot of problems, because even if it's good, is not good enough for me. That happens to me when i use Flash, but when i use Photoshop, it's much better ! It's almost like real life. Isn't there a way to, export the Photoshop's brush tool information/setting/preference (something like those things) into Flash ?

No. But you can create graphics completely in Photoshop and import them into Flash. You can also very easily right-click on a bitmap in your library and "Edit with Photoshop". Whatever you do, if you save it, will auto-update in Flash.
Flash is not designed for creating elaborate bitmap graphics. It's better at vector but for either of those you really should just use the tool that's designed for it. Flash is typically what is used to take finished media and assemble it into an animation or application.

Is there a way to use a date field and conditionally change its LABEL?

Hi I have 2 date select lists and desire to change the label text at runtime.
If I use it for one query it would be Order Date, another it would be Start Date.

Vikas,
...a page template is a special case since everything is finally rendered on a page.Don't know what you mean.
references in page templates probably get evaluated first...References in page templates get replaced with their session state values when the portion of the page template containing the references is rendered, e.g., before the box, inside the box, after the box, in the footer..., and within each section each item reference is replaced "when it is encountered" with the current value of the item from session state.
There is a Before Footer computation that sets that item to the current timestamp.I see an "After Regions" computation. On your page, the form item is rendered using the current (from the previous page request) value of the item in session state. Then your compuation sets a new value. Then the remaining sections of the page template (after the regions) are rendered and you see the newly computed value in the footer section of the template.
Is there a way to pass in the current form item name to the shortcut so that I can have a generic shortcut that returns a different value for the label depending on which item it is being invoked from?Starting in XE and now in 2.2, you can use the strings #CURRENT_FORM_ELEMENT#, #CURRENT_ITEM_ID#, and #CURRENT_ITEM_NAME# in shortcuts. This makes PL/SQL Function shortcuts such as the following possible: if '#CURRENT_ITEM_NAME#' = 'P2_ENAME' then
    return ('employee name');
elsif '#CURRENT_ITEM_NAME#' = 'P2_JOB' then
    return ('job');
else
    return ('foo');

Is there a way to use a text field as a rollover?

I have a PDF that contains tables with bullets in them. I would like the end user to be able to rollover a bullet and have a part number appear.

It's easier to use buttons, either by taking advantage of their rollover label, tooltip text, or by controlling the visibility of another button as demonstrated with the following sample: https://acrobat.com/#d=aP-2xL45pM57xVkT6d6fSg

Is there a way to use the Unicode Miscellaneous Symbols in Photoshop CS3?

Hi,
Is there a way to use the Unicode Miscellaneous Symbols, a list of which can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miscellaneous_Symbols in photoshop CS3?
I've enabled unicode on my keyboard; and I can make the symbols if I type them in Textedit. But, if I try to copy and paste them into Photoshop it doesn't work.
Is there a way to access these symbols in Photoshop? They aren't in the Symbol, Wingdings, or Zapf Dingbats fonts.

Hi Chris,
Thank you very much for the message.
With unicode enabled and the character palette open, I have to change View from Glyph to Code Tables in order to find the characters I need. (What I need isn't available in the glyph view as far as I can see). Then I scroll down to the unicode series beginning 00002600 Miscellaneous Symbols. I tried copying and pasting a character from here into photoshop, but it didn't work.
Unfortunately, I don't see the symbols I need in the glyph view. Is there a way to copy and paste from the code tables view? If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
Thank you.

Is there a way to use a statically defined appearance stream in a dynamically created annotation?

Hello,
I want to create a document with cascading 'popups'. Not the built-in text-only popup, but an annotation containing an appearance stream that defines text and images. I'm currently using widget annotations based on a pushbutton field.
Each page in my document has many citations that refer to other pages in the document. When a user hovers over the citation, I want a 'popup' to appear containing a depiction of the destination. However, as the destination will itself have citations, I also want the 'popup' to contain citations that the user can hover over, triggering another popup, etc. In this way, a user could navigate throughout the document without leaving the page or even clicking the mouse.
Obviously, with even a modest number of citations per page, pre-calculating and statically defining all of these widgets causes a combinatorial explosion, making the document sluggish and very large.
Instead, I'd like to statically define appearance streams once per document, and then dynamically create annotations and assign the appropriate appearance stream using JS as the user navigates.
So far I've created a named AP in the names dictionary, but I haven't been able to use it to dynamically set an appearance stream of a dynamically created widget annotation.
Also, I've called Doc.getIcon(), passing in the named AP, which returns an Icon object. However, after field.buttonSetIcon() and passing in the named AP, the button does not display the icon.
Is there a way to use a statically defined appearance stream in a dynamically created annotation?
Thank you,
Dave

Hi George, I've gotten named APs to work, and I expect hidden buttons will follow. Thank you very much!
Quick follow-up - I will have many documents embedded within the same pdf file, and some of these documents will contain identical popups. However, I don't want to store identical icons in each document on account of file size.
Instead, I'd like to store one instance of each icon for all documents in the file.
Can I store all of the icons in a single document, and then access them by calling <DocName>.getField().getIcon() from any document in the file?
Thank you again,
Dave

Is there a way to use iPhoto and *not* have it import photos?

Hi there,
I'm transitioning from a PC to a Mac and everything is going fairly well -- overall a better user experience. One question I have is, is there a way to use iPhoto without having it import photos? My main issue is that currently iPhoto imports all the photos that I want to view/edit in iPhoto and copies them to it's own folder structure. I like to manage my pictures in a folder structure that I define, so I already back up my photos to another location and now I'm finding that iPhoto is just duplicating the pictures that I already have where I want them, sucking up precious space on my SSD.
So is there a way for me to just point iPhoto to a folder, make my edits on those photos, and have iPhoto automatically save those changes to the original folder I pointed it to, instead of duplicating the photos in it's own folder structure?
It occasional things like this that makes me miss some Windows features. In this case, I miss Windows Photo Gallery.

Hm, ok so if I edit my photos (adjust brightness etc) in iPhoto and then export it, does it export with the brightness changed, or does it just export the original?
It exports whichever you choose - the edited version or the original.
However, am I the only one with trust issues with importing all my photos into iPhoto? I'm scared the library will get corrupted, etc.
NO you're not the only one. The protection against any data corruption is a good back up, and you need that for any data on any computer running any OS. But in the case of iPhoto, remember too that the original files are stored exactly as they are imported, in folders, in the filing system.
that when I go to export the photos, there's a LOT of duplicate file names that the export chokes on, which makes it very tedious, no, painful, for me to export a large number of photos.
Explore the options under File Name when you export from iPhoto using the File -> Export command

Is there a way to use PM4.0 with Windows XPH?

Is there a way to use PM4.0 with Windows XPH without purchasing the latest suite or upgrades? I origionally purchased a suite with Pagemaker, Photostyler and Freehand just before Aldus went Adobe, and Win3.1 went Win95, then WinME and WinXP. I miss PM and have several manyscripts saved on PM4.0 and can not export or import them to any current wordprocessing programs. I was very far into one manuscript and am now in a position to finish it up but don't want to have to purchase a whole suite in order to do so. Any suggestions for this old tightwad?

Shouldn't that be Win3.0 c.1991? And with a very early of version ATM (Ver 2?) if you want to do anything with fonts?
I think I have a WinME PC in the garage, which if you can re-format with DOS 5 and install Win3 instead (I may have the disks in the garage too), PM4 will positively scream along.
I reckon it's non starter on a modern WinXP PC, as the OS is so different, but if you're willing to experiment, you never know!
But if you want to open some old files to extract the text, you can open the PM4 files and save them with a d/l'ed trial copy of PM7, which will be OK on WinXP

Is there a way to use two macs to run one app? I want to use my two macbook pros processors in a shared capacity.

I have two macbook pros a 2.4ghz and a 2.2ghz. Is there a way to use the other macbook pro to help with any cpu intensive apps like audio and video apps. I haven't had much luck on finding anything about sharing resources. It would be awesome if you could link up two macs and use both of them to power through processor intensive tasks.

Yep here you go.

Is there a way to use iCloud Photo Library WITHOUT syncing?

The idea I had of iCloud Photo Library was that I could upload my pictures to it and access them from all my devices WITHOUT having to sync them.
At the end of every month, I move all the photos from my phone to my computer. It helps me save space and keep things tidy. With iCloud Library, I want to access all my photos, but it looks like I must sync them through iCloud, and then to save space in my phone, I have to select "optimise space for iPhone". Is there any way to use iCloud Photo Library as a mere cloud storage? I don't want to keep photos on my phone, neither full resolution or "optimised" ones. I want to put them on iCloud, and when I need them, then I want my phone to download them.
I realise I could use other cloud storage providers for this, but I have always liked Apple's integration with their own services, so if possible, I would like to use iCloud Photo Library without syncing to my devices. Just keep my stuff in iCloud, and when I tap it, download it.
