Iterate over selected images, read/change crop settings in LR3?

Since there is a new SDK I thought I ask again for this version:
I'd like to write a Lightroom script which iterates through all selected images, read and change the crop settings of (nearly) every image.
Is this possible to achieve in lua using the LR3 SDK? Or is it still not possible to read and write development settings?
Kind regards,
Sam

You can read individual develop settings but only apply presets. That's better than nothing, but allowing us to write develop settings would have opened up a whole new world of possibilities - I think it scared them...
A possible work around: read settings, create a temp preset, write changed settings to the temp preset, then apply it.
NoYeah?

How do I change the settings on my ipod so that it plays continuous music. Right now, it plays the same song over and over, even if I select the shuffle icon. It used to show the continuous play icon, it doesn't anymore.

Right click on a movie(in iTunes), and click "get info" then go to album artwork and add the artwork that you want...

[ID CS5] Change imported .ai crop settings after placed.

Hi,
I have a file with a few hundred illustrator files which have been placed into an indesign file. I would like to change the crop settings to trim. Is there a way of doing it without re placing all of the files?
To explain it better, what you would normally do is click file > place and check the show import options. A dialog box would then appear asking where to crop the file. Is there a way of getting this dialog box / change the crop options after the file has been placed.
If someone could write a script for this, I would happily shoot over some beer money(£10), as it will save me hours.
Steven.

Awesome! There's a preference that controls whether manually re-placed images retain their scale. But looks lke you found the better way.
While we're here, I would tend to shy away from naming the variable, "image," because in the InDesign DOM Image is a subclass of Graphic, but your code operates on all Graphics (EPS | Image | ImportedPage | PDF | PICT | WMF).
Enjoy!

Over some images my imac cursor has changed to a hand with a blue magnifying grid - how to I get back to normal?

Sometimes when moving over an image, mt cursor changes to a hand with a blue magnifying grid. How can I disable this?
Thanks!

Thanks sberman ... unfortunately that option is & has been unticked. It has happened to me two or three times but my memory ain't what it used to be so I can't recall the exact circumstances. It went away by itself this morning after an overnight shutdown so I don't think it can be a "preferences" item. Only thing I had to do this morning was to change trackpad batteries. Maybe low batt power was the cause? Interestingly before I posted the query here, I was searching all over the net for a similar problem and could not find even one related post or comment anywhere. And this post has 53 views with only your reply so maybe it is a spurious / unique problem? I'll leave the post for now as the problem seemed to have fixed itself and if it happens again, I will re-try everything first, including checking batteries. Somehow I thought mnaybe I had hit a keyboard shortcut in error but I can't find any reference at all to this kind of behaviour. Wierd!! But thanks very much for your reply!!

I recently switched over from Apple to Sony and I would like to know how I can change my settings so that all my iCloud emails are forwarded to my Gmail account?

I recently switched over from Apple to Sony and I would like to know how I can change my settings so that all my iCloud emails are forwarded to my Gmail account?

Log in on iCloud.com and go to Mail. In Mail, at the bottom left you should see a gear icon. Click on it, go to Settings (or Preferences, I'm doing this from memory), and in there you'll find an option to forward your iCloud email to another service.

The "read" emails in one of my 3 email accounts have disappeared. I changed no settings and checked the view and they are gone. I need them back! Help!

Suddenly my main email account is not showing the emails I've kept in line...the other accounts haven't changed at all. I changed no settings, checked everything, no tags are in place. I shut down the program and opened it and nothing. I need those messages back! Where could they be??? Thank you in advance for any help you can give me!

There are several possible reasons that messages seem to 'disappear'.
There are two types of email accounts: IMAP and POP. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/glossary-terms-including-types-accounts
If you have a POP account and are accessing the mail on more than one computer or smartphone, whichever device reads (downloads) the message first will have it locally, but it will no longer be listed or available on the other devices.
If you have an IMAP account, the message stays on the server, but if one device (user) moves or deletes the message, it will affect the view on all devices. So, for example, if you are using your smartphone and take some action on an email, when you get back to your computer, it will reflect that same action (but you might not have realized what caused it).
Sometimes the index of a mail folder (.msf) will get corrupted. If you right click on the name of the folder and select Properties, a 'Folder Properties' window will open. Select 'Repair Folder'. This may take care of the problem.
Another, less likely, reason for messages not to show up in your inbox is having the preference set to show only unread or recent messages. Then once you read them they seem to disappear.
If you are still having problems, please look at the following items and respond with the information.
1) What operating system do you use (Win8, MAC, Linux, etc)?
2) Are you using IMAP or POP?
3) If your mail server has a browser interface (web mail access such as mail.google.com), do the messages show up there?
4) Right click on the folder in question and select Properties.
a) Number of messages?
b) Size on disk?
5) Left click on the account name; View settings for this account; highlight Server settings;
What choices are marked under "When I delete a message"?
6) What, if any, antivirus program do you have installed?

Drag and drop images from the OS or select images over filebrowser

Hello,
I want to create an image upload tool in JavaFX with similar functionality like Jumploader (http://jumploader.com/). The users should be able to select images from the filesystem that will be resized and uploaded to their website, similar as in Facebook. The difference is that I want users to be able to crop images directly in my application. This is something, other upload tools do not offer.
I was searching weeks on the web trying to find a sample on how to drag and drop images in to a JavaFX 1.3.1 app or also to create a file browser. I have found many examples but they seem to be outdated. Is it to early yet to try and start projects like these with JavaFX as JavaFX is still under development? Or can anybody lead me in to the right direction?
Thanks,
Chris

To be more precise, you can setup a JComponent or JPanel on top of your JavaFX nodes that has a TransferHandler that can convert the (AWT/Swing) images dragged to the app to JavaFX image and then insert it into the underlying node.
As for the file chooser itselft: ListView and the JavaFX composer can allow you to create one quite easily. TreeView can aslso be used to a lesser extend (still a big buggy). For both of these, there are small bugs in the Cell API that may (or may not) prevent from displaying a proper thumbnail in the cells.
You can also use a regular JFileChooser if you do not mind the dialog box having a different LnF from the rest of your application.

How to change selected images to B&W

I have a collection of say 20 color images. I would like to apply the same Black and White treatment to all 20. When I am done, I would like to have the original 20 color images and their 20 black and white conversions in the same collection. Is this possible? And could you please explain?
Thanks,
pat
PS I am new to Lightroom 3.3

Select all the images to be changed (Ctl-A selects all or Ctl-Click selects out of sequence images). Right click, choose Create Vitrual copies. Press D to go to the Develop module. All the Virtual Copies will be selected. The first selected Virtual Copy will be displayed. Make the B&W changes to the first image. When done select SYNC. From the Sync dialog box choose uncheck all. Then select the two B&W choices (sorry, I closed that computer so I can't see Lightroom to get the exact verbage). All selected images will have the B&W setting applied.

Preview failed because Adobe Muse could not make a connection over HTTP. The most common cause of this is Firewall software which prevents HTTP connections. You may need to change Firewall settings to allow Adobe Muse to make connections.

When I download Microsoft word documents (if have word 2007), I have somehow changed the settings and it downloads them in wordpad, and the format is very bad and I can't read a lot of the document. How do I change the default setting back to using Microsoft Word 2007 to open these documents?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== about a few weeks ago - I had tried to open some docuuments saved on a mac, my PC (which runs Windows 7), used word pad to open these, and this seems to have changed the default settings somehow.

Metadata changes not applied to all selected images

I am having 2 problems.
When I am in lightroom's library (3.5), I would like to change the time of capture for multiple photos, and apply keywords.
However, when I perform either of those actions, the changes are only applied to the image shown in the "more brightly highlighted" image, not all that are selected.
Is there a setting I am missing? I just cannot seem to figure out why this is not working.
Also, I aplogize if my searching skills are weak and this has been covered already. I did attempt to see if this question has been answered before posting.
Thanks.

You need to be in Grid view to apply metadata to all selected images, otherwise LR will only apply it to the image shown in the main area. Alternatively, you can swith on AutoSync in Library.

Adobe Reader changes system color depth settings to 256 colors

I am writing here for a friend who has a Windows 7 system and Adobe Reader in version 9.4
Each time he opens Adobe Reader the system settings for color depth are changed to 256 colors, which makes PDF documents barely readable. It is possible to change the color depth back to normal in the system settings, but each restart of Adobe Reader switches the system again to 256 colors.
Does anyone here have a clue how to stop this behaviour of Adobe Reader?
My friend has tried to remove Adobe Reader and reinstall it, but the problem remains.
Since I am a Mac user my Windows abilities are very limited and I am very grateful for any help.
Thanks a lot,
macvet

Could be a hardware malfunction. Maybe you should take that MacBook to an Apple store and have it checked out.

Change/disable mouse-over selection on app switcher menu (apple-tab menu)

Does anyone know of a way to disable the mouse-over selecting an application on the apple-tab menu (app switcher)? This is so frustrating when you are trying to do a lot of copy and paste between apps and the mouse keeps "re-selecting" the application you are trying to choose.
