Layer 2 across Layer 3

Is it possible to pass layer 2 traffic across a layer 3 link between a Catalyst 4500 and Catalyst 6500. I basically have OSPF connection between the 2 devices but need to extend the same subnet across both devices. I don't have any more physical connections or budget for more hardware..
Inquiring minds want to know.

Well you could do that across a VLAN trunk while also having L3 across the same link too. The latter could be done using a "p2p" VLAN.

Shift+Click to Select Layer is moving layer across workspace

Hello everyone.
When I Shift+click to select a layer, this layer moves and continues to move across the stage with each shift+click?
Weird!
Anyone ever have a similar issue or any suggestions?
Thanks hardlee

No the layer object starts moving across the stage.
I hook up my laptop to my office monitor and use usb keyboard and mouse while at office. It happens in this scenario and also happens when out of the office using my laptop touch pad. Shift plus LeftClick and the layer starts moving, sometimes it will move clear off the main stage in to the greyed out area around the graph.
Again weird...

How to separate layer in layer palette using colour?

How can I separate the layer in layer palette using colour to increase the visualbility like the image below?

You could right click on the eye in the layer thumbnail
or from the layer panel flyout, select layer/group properties.

How to create new canvas at photoshop and apply a layer by layer name?

How to create new canvas at Photoshop and apply a layer by layer name ?
So simply what i want is
Create a new canvas certain size such as 150x40 pixels
Apply a layer to that canvas. Script will select the layer by layer name
How can i do that these 2 simple things with Photoshop scripting

When you write Apply a layer what do you mean Script will select layer by name. A new document will have a background layer or a normal layer do you want to rename that there is onle one layer. Or do you want to add a layer by name what kind?
thanks for answer. you know like background layer. for example when you are generating web buttons you are preparing background layers. it will select a layer like that.
also can you post full script here if possible ? thank you.

Moving Objects from Layer to Layer

Yes I knwo this is probably a very naive question but I'm
learning Flash 8 here and it says nothing in the documentation
about moving an object from one to layer to another. I'm sure in
Flash 5 you selected the object and then simply clicked the layer
which you wanted it on. This seems to have changed and Adobe/MM
have forgotten to say how you do it now.

When you say "move" an object from layer to layer - you
simply want to cut the object on the stage
in one layer and paste it in place on another? You will have
to manually cut and paste it. Flash 5
or any previous version never had an "auto-move" feature,
esprcially the way you describe: "...you
selected the object and then simply clicked the layer which
you wanted it on..."
That type of functionality would be disasterous - if any
object on stage was selected and then you
clicked on a layer would force that object to move to that
layer, would cause major headaches and
render the program unusable - because 99% of the time, anyone
who was not wanting to move the object
would have a very hard time keeping them on the intended
layer while tying to use other features in
flash (like renaming layers, or moving the stacking order of
layers, or creating layer folders or
motion paths or mask layers, etc...
Are you really asking about "merging" 2 layers together?

Rename layers with layer 1, layer 2 till and layer N

My Name is Sathya Murthy
I have psd files with many layers each with different names
I want to rename the layer which i have selected using right click with name Layer 1
Next layer which I right click with layer 2 and so on till layer N
and layers with are left out without renaming should be put in a new layer set or group in layers separately in the same file.
which i have opened
and layers should be arranged like this
till Layer N
Layer 4
Layer 3
Layer 2
Layer 1
Group or Layer Set
Background
I hope you understand what i am saying
I want scripting for that action as I have more files to rename layers so by using scripts i can work little bit faster
anyone knowing please help
Thanks In Advance
Sathya Murthy

I don’t think one can select Layers in the Layers Panel or on the Canvas while a Script is running.
One could select the Layers via a dialog, but that would take focus and need to present a list of the Layers.
Alternatively it might be possible to set up a work-around by selecting a Layer, invoking a Script (either by Keyboard Shortcut or from a Configurator Panel) that stores data (the activeLayer in this case), repeating that as often as needed and at the end of the selection process trigger another Script (or possibly the same with the shift-key pressed) that then processes that stored information.
But maybe someone else has more insightr or a better idea.

ISDN BRI layer 1 & layer 2 do not sustain "active" statuses

Hi Expert,
I have some routers which can not sustain the ISDN layer 1 & layer 2 statuses correctly. Whenever, the ISDN line is manually activated or the ISDN BRI ports are manually reset, the layer 1 & layer 2 statuses become active but they become deactivated after a while. I have changed the ISDN module and the same symptom is observed. Would you advise what is the cause and resolution. Your advice in this matter is greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,

I have another router with the same configuration and the statuses are able to sustain correctly. Thus, I doubt that the backup interface command has any effect on the layer 1 & layer 2 statuses.

Wake on LAN across Layer 3

When setting up WOL across a Layer 3 boundary you have to enter an ' ip helper ' address on the WOL server L3 vlan for each subnet you want to ' wake '.
What if you have 200+ subnets , I'm fairly sure the practical limit for ' ip helper ' addresses is 16 ?

I wonder where the original poster got the idea that the practical limit for ip helper-address was 16? I agree that there is some additional overhead on the router for each helper-address that you add to the configuration. But a router should be able to process a lot more than 16 helper-addresses.
200+ would be a lot of helper-addresses and depending on what kind of router (how much CPU does it have) and what other features are configured doing 200+ might be a stretch. But most routers should be able to do lots more than 16.

Sharing master page layer across frames

FW CS3...
As I see it, a common use for "Pages" in CS3 would be to have
one page for
the "homepage" of a site and another for each major
section... For all the
common elements (like the main BG i use a master page). In my
example I
would also like ot have a sepearte page for the main nav. The
nav page will
have 2 frames: one for the normal state and one for the over
state.
Makes sense so far...
Problem is that the "master page" layer that I see in the
layers pallette
when my Nav page is active does not share across the 2
frames... I can
duplicate the appropriate background areas, but that defeats
the purpose of
having a master page layer doesn't it.
I feel like I am missing something when it comes to using
frames and pages
appropriately. Thoughts?
Alex

Thats a valid point, but with normal layers (as oposed to the
"Master Page"
layer) you get to pick whether or not the layer is shared
across frames ...
why not with teh "Master Page" layer?

Tuxedo configuration across layer 3 network.

Hi,
We need to configure tuxedo across two data-centers. we cannot have a vlan between these two data-centers. Is it possible to setup to do so? If yes, how?
Data-centers fall in a metro cluster.
Early response would be appreciated.
Regards,
Manav

Hi Manav,
Tuxedo uses standard TCP/IP communication. To have two Tuxedo domains communicate with each other requires a TCP/IP connection between the various machines, either BRIDGE communication if in an MP configuration, or GWTDOMAIN communication if operating as separate domains in each data center. There are no subnet requirements for Tuxedo. All that is required is the ability to open a TCP/IP connection from one or more machines to the remote machine(s).

Can't move objects from layer to layer

Hi all,
I have been using illustrator for years and only now happened upon this issue. When I try to move on object or text from one layer to another, I a red "Not allowed to do" symbol, to the right side, within that layer.
How can I correct this issue?
Many thanks,
NT

Gary
The objects that I am trying to move, are plane black line drawings, no fills. Every time I drag the small color box (in the layers pallet)from one layer to the next, I get the red cirle with a diagonal line through it. This symbol appears where the layer color should be. The layers are not locked. Thank you for any help you can give me.

Twisting a Layer, Vector Layer and/or Text Layer?

Hello everyone,
I'm stuck and could use a hand.
Here at work, I have the entire CS5 Master Suite at my disposal.
Although I'm familiar with the Adobe Suite, I'm having a hard time figuring out the best/most efficient way to do this effect:
Now, my boss would like concept designs of our logo (let's say it reads "That One Guy") on our white mannequin,
which we use to shoot articles of clothing.
I would like to show her a design with many instances of the "That One Guy" logo twisted/wrapped (like as if I wrapped a string around my finger or curled a balloon string) atop the mannequin's head to create like an afro or long dreads look.
The layer doesn't have to have any extrusion/3D.
I mean... it CAN, but if it's just flat AND is twisting/wrapping... that's cool too.
I would like to be able to twist the layer, and then bend it so it looks like it's actually hanging off the mannequins head.
Here's an example. Not much bend on each of her strands, but you get the idea: http://www.probeauty-supply.com/images/Afro-Curl_1b-330076.jpg
What program would allow me to accomplish this best?
Photoshop? Illustrator?
Any help would be highly appreciated and would serve me well in the future =)
Thanks, everyone.
_Chris

You can do this type of manipulation in Illustrator. You have to do four things: 1) create your artwork, in this case your text "That One Guy" 2) Change your art work into a symbol 3) Create a 3D shape, say a cylinder at some angle, onto which you will map your artwork (now a symbol) and 4) hide the 3D shape.
A couple of comments: If you are new to Illustrator you probably do not want to do this as your first project. While the steps are few you have to know your way around Illustrator to get it done in a reasonable time and have it look right. Even if you managed to do it I suspect that a small number of letters wrapped around something is going to be very difficult to read/recognize. You might try sketching your idea out on paper (TO SCALE) along with the mannequin to see if the notion still feels good to you and the boss before investing a lot of time at the computer.
An alternative that you might consider that can be done in Photoshop is to create a series of curly paths ( like hair or rising smoke) and use the type on a path tool to make the text follow those paths. Here also you probably would want to use say a continuously repeating version of your logo text instead of just the three words. The work for this approach is significantly less and is easier than what you asked for and should be much more readable.
Good luck,
Paulo

When i click on one layer, the layer on top get picked instead. How do i fix this?

Hi, as the headline says, im having trouble with layers. How do i fix this? Thank you for your concern.

Sounds like the auto layer select is enabled in the top toolbar. Just uncheck the box, then you can select the layers from the layer panel or hold down the ctrl(windows) or cmd(mac) keys and select from the document. Having that option checked allows you to select from the document with needing the modifier key.

Adjustment layer causes layer to disappear

I have a bunch of 3D precomped layers which are stacked underneath some other layers. I want to add an adjustment layer above the 3d layers but when I add one its ok if its at the top but if drag it down to sit above my 3d layers they turn invisible. Not sure why. There is no effect on the adjustment layer. I can still see thir outline but the image disappears.
