Linking Account Object to the Dealer Object

Hi,
Has anyone tried to use the Dealer object?
It seems that linking an account to the dealer object requires categorizing the account type to 'Dealer' from the pick list. If I change the value it still works. However, we have more than 1 dealer type and would like to use multiple values that will all do the linking.
Does anyone know if there exist other values that link the 2 objects or whether there is a way to add new values that will link the 2 objects?
Thanks.

Colin,
Not sure what you are trying to do, but the dealer object is same as account with the account type of dealer. If you are familiar with enterprise Siebel just consider it as a business component that references the account table with a search specification for account type = "dealer"
You can have a field on the dealer or account called dealer type make this a cascase picklist to account type and classify the two types of dealers - am not sure if this is what you are trying to do.
If you are creating an activity or an opportunity there is an account field as well as a dealer field (You will have to configure this on your page layout), in this way you can reference your activity or opportunity to both dealer and account. Am not exactly sure if this is what you are looking for.
The sad part of using dealers/ Vehicles is currently there is no reporting capability for both these objects, you can try doing some reporting using the account/asset object respectively - it could get bit confusing.
Hope this helps.

Image Links property, what's the deal?

I have several Image viewer elements in my site, and even
though I've specified NO image link URL, when clicking images, it
tries to go to macromedia.com
See attached code.

Creating Links to Object but not using the record id field in the web add

Hello,
Im trying to create a link between OnDemand an another system but the other system is the source system so it will be creating the HTML Link based on values the user selectes.
What i am trying to do is create a link link the following:
https://secure-ausomxdsa.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/ServiceRequestDetail?ServiceRequestDetailForm.Id=ADSA-73J818&ocTitle=484426-429198955&OMTGT=ServiceRequestDetailForm&OMTHD=ServiceRequestDetailNav&ocEdit=Y&OCTYPE=&ocTitleField=SR+Number
but without "ServiceRequestDetailForm.Id=ADSA-73J818" at the end i want something like
https://secure-ausomxdsa.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/ServiceRequestDetail?ServiceRequestDetailForm.SRNumber=484426-429198955&ocTitle=484426-429198955&OMTGT=ServiceRequestDetailForm&OMTHD=ServiceRequestDetailNav&ocEdit=Y&OCTYPE=&ocTitleField=SR+Number
As this is not using the ID field, Is this possible can someone point me in the right direction on how i should start?

Hi Jonno,
It is not possible to use links to object without Id field. U can pass other values but Id is important- based on that only OnDemand identifies the record.
So what i would suggest is
1) Either use Id along with SR Number in ur source system.
Since what i understood is u are not creating new SR so u have the Id of the SR. Along with SRNumber save Id also in the external system
2) Or use Webservices to query with SR Number for the Id then use it in the link.
Hope this helps.

Motion Tracking: How to link a object which is not the tracked one?

Hello,
I have a video, its a landscape and the camera is moving from left to right. I want a flare appearing on the right side. There is one point which is always in the picture, I used this point to track the motion.
But the problem is, when I want to link optical flares with the tracking point, the flare is always ON the tracking point, but I want it a little bit more on the right side...
How is it possible to link a Object which is not exactly on the tracking point?

Usually you would apply the tracking info to a null and then use an expression to tie the position property of whatever you are trying to attach to the null with a simple expression. If you need update the position then you can either add value + to the front of the pickwhip generated expression or, and sometimes this is best, add a second null, parent null 2 to null 1 and then use the a layer space transformation expression on the position property of your effect. The expression looks like this:
p = thisComp.layer("Null 2");
p.toComp([0,0,0]);
If I did not if I did not accurately understand the problem then please post a screenshot of your project with all of the properties for the layers in question revealed.
Here's what a project would look like:

How do you update the location of linked smart objects?

The new linked smart object feature was a low-key feature but it's fundamentally changing our workflow for the better!
Quick question, is there a way to update the paths to linked smart objects or will Photoshop work it out? I can't see a links panel under WIndow or file so am not sure how you do it sorry.
I'm about to edit these files at home and want to make sure Photoshop can find the links - as well as find everything when I copy it all back to the server and work.
Cheers
ben

Yes, the linked smart object can be either raster or vector, but they will be placed as raster images, just as the embedded SO are. SO can be embedded or linked to an outside file. Edits to the original will not update in the original until you select "Update modified content from the menu" when you reopen the file that has the place SO in it. otherwise it will update when you save the linked file. Yes, there still is an advantage to having an embedded SO. You may not want to maintain the links - send a file off and forget to include the linked files. You may want to alter the SO, but not the original file.
Ah, thanks. But does this mean that raster and vector smart objects can EITHER be located within the Photoshop file (as they have been since their advent) OR linked to an external file?
And if so,
1. Can this linked file be either raster or vector?
2. Do edits to it automatically update the Photoshop file?
3. Is ther any longer any advantage to having the smart object data stored within the Photoshop file when it can be linked?

Open as linked smart object

Hello,
iam looking for a solution to open files in a folder
and copy then into a document.
Its working good, but i need the files to be linked smart object.
Anyone knows a solution ?
Here my Code so far:
See in line 33. Convert to smart object: ?
var file = new File('C:/User_MY PATH.PSD'),
docRef = open(file);
// Use the path to the application and append the samples folder
var samplesFolder = Folder('C:/USERS_MY FOLDER');
//Get all the files in the folder
var fileList = samplesFolder.getFiles()
// open each file
for (var i = 0; i < fileList.length; i++)
// The fileList is folders and files so open only files
if (fileList[i]instanceof File)
open(fileList[i])
// use the document name for the layer name in the merged document
var activeDocName = app.activeDocument.name;
var targetDocName = activeDocName.substring(0, activeDocName.lastIndexOf("."));
// Copy the Document
app.activeDocument.selection.selectAll()
//convertToSmartObject(); THIS ISNT WORKING - CONVERT IT ?
app.activeDocument.selection.copy()
// don’t save anything we did
app.activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES)
//Select specific layer to paste the copy, this is to make sure the layers are in a specific position
var doc = app.activeDocument;
doc.activeLayer = doc.artLayers.getByName("bgr");
//Paste Document
app.activeDocument.paste()
app.activeDocument.activeLayer.name = targetDocName

Linked Smart Objects

When you send a PS file which has a linked Smart Object to a print vendor, will you need to send the linked Smart Object file as well?

That's what I was afraid of. As a print vendor AND a designer I'm concerned that word has not gotten out that linked objects will need to accompany the file and we will end up dead in the water when we need to open up a photoshop file with a linked smart object. This is a relatively new problem for Photoshop, although InDesign and even many Illustrator users know that links need to be sent. In fact, we're seeing the opposite trend in InDesign, where artists are embedding artwork in their InDesign file rather than linking, which has both pluses and minuses.
Thanks!

How do I (or can I) convert an embedded smart object into a linked smart object

If I start with an embedded Smart Object (S.O)., can I easily convert in into a linked type of S.O.? I have not seen this feature available in the tooling yet. Please advise.

Since an embedded smart object is, well, embedded, there's no way to just convert. You'll have to point a link somewhere.
If you want to keep the smart object as is, open it and "Save As" to a new location, then link to that (Place Linked). Then delete the old.

Layer Comps should capture changes to a Linked Smart Object's Layer Comp

Normally, I can move things around or change visibility, and use Layer Comps in my master doc to capture these changes.
However, changing which Layer Comp displays from a Linked Smart Object cannot be captured by Layer Comps in my master doc.
Slightly more information: Sorry it's a little convoluted. I have several Linked Smart Objects inside a master doc, and these Smart Objects contain different Layer Comps. It's awesome that I can easily change which Layer Comp each Smart Object displays. But when I make a change, it cascades across the Layer Comps in my master doc. So my master doc's Layer Comps cannot effectively capture a state.
It would be awesome if Layer Comps were able to capture state changes for the display of Linked Smart Object's Layer Comps. #featurerequest

Can you replace embedded smart object with linked smart object?

Hi,
I'd like to update some document to reflet the new workflow that linked smart object provide. I have made some transformation on those embedded smart object and would like to not have to redo all those so is there anyway way to replace those SO with the linked version of the same SO?
TIA

Convert an embedded smart object to a linked smart object

Hey guys,
love the new "linked smart object" functionality. However, I can not figure out how I can convert (or export) an existing embedded smart object to a linked smart object.
I have a huge photoshop file with several embedded smart objects that I would like to break down into a lightweigt photoshop with with links to the varios smart object photoshop files.
Is there any way to do this?
Thanks,
Philipp

Thanks a lot guys.
I am just now putting a document together with linked smart objects and I'm noticing that the file size of the PSD file still increases quite a bit. I thought the hole point of this was to have lightweigh psd files?
I currently have 11 1920x1080 linked smart object files in the PSD and the file size is already at 140MB. Any ideas why this is happening?

Scripting layer comp property of linked smart object

How can I through script set the layer comp property of a linked smart object?
More generally, how can I access a smart object and manipulate it as a document? I know that I get smart object layers by looking at the kind property, but I don't know what to do with them once I get them. I'd like to be able to cast the layer to a document object I guess. Thoughts, anyone?

How do I disable linked smart-object auto-update/refresh?

Working in the CC3D features, I am constantly making changes to my bump map. Every time I step-backwards, or make a significant change to the bump texture (smart object?), CC auto-saves the layer. This specific file is a very very large document (3 gigs in the bump texture layer alone), and the 3D layer has lots of lights and is very complex. This auto-refresh/update really bogs down the time that it would take me to make my changes. I have a very fast machine (I know it's fast, I dont need to list my specs), and I have all shadows disabled.
How do I disable linked smart-object auto-update/refresh?

If you do not like a feature like smart objects there is nothing forcing you to use it. Use some other features to do what you want. Please don't ask Adobe to introduce bug into smart object support.
You could work on your bump maps textures in external files. When your done some time in the future you could edit your project with the smart object layer and use replace smart object. Only then will all smart filters be applied to the smart layer with the replaced smart object.
Or if by CC Auto save Layer you referring to CC Generate feature you can disable that feature.
I have no idea what your referring to when you write "CC auto-saves the layer" being a feature. I know CC Generate will write layers out as web files but that more a Web feature then a 3d feature. Where do you see your layer being saved?
