Liquify - Bloat and Pucker Tools

The Liquify Bloat and Pucker Tools seem to be far too harsh at any setting. That is to the point where it is difficult to use them without ripping a hole in the picture.  I have compared the effect in CS5 with CS6 and at Brush Density 50, Pressure 100, Rate 80, the effect is alright on CS5 but burns through to the canvass with a slight touch in CS6.  Am I missing something?

Liquify, yes. Other tools, not so much, if you're looking for puppet warp and those. Best to download the trial and see what you think.

  • Liquify Bloat effect in Flash as3

    I am looking for a technique to create a Liquify Bloat effect as in Photoshop. I need to create some tool which makes a person's face look a bit broad or you can say make him fat. The Liquify Bloat tool in Photoshop does almost the same of what is required but I was not able to find a technique to replicate it in Flash AS3. I have tried using the Perlin Noise and other liquify effects but not able to get what is required. I think it might be achievable by using the Perlin noise as shown here: http://www.erikhallander.com/dev/as3/more_perlin.html But Not sure what should be the perlin parameters for the required effect.

    I think PixelBender is the right approach for your needs: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/pixelbender.html
    I don't have an example right now, but I've already seen a few filters doing exactly what you want.

  • Photoshop cc 2014 suddenly trouble with cloning and healing tool

    I just updated photoshop cc 2014. I use a wacom tablet. Suddenly, when I use the healing brush or cloning brush. The brush control panel pops up and the tool simply doesn't work. After repeated attempts, I do succeed in getting this to work. Sure slows me down though.

    Sorry for the lack of the report it was my first time reporting an error for software... Never had an issue before.
    I haven't experienced the crash via text tool since I posted the question, but the Photoshop is still constantly crashing at startup, but every time I try to enter the report I get the error: Please try again later.m5

  • The future of Snapshot, and similar tools.

    My apologies for posting this twice. I posted it first as a follow up
    to an old thread in ...
    novell.support.zenworks.desktop-management.6x.install-setup
    I am quoting some comments made in that forum.
    Then after surfing the forums for awhile, I thought the issue might get
    more attention, if I posted it here. I am looking for ideas and advice
    on the future of snap shot, and any tools that Novell might provide to
    replace it.
    If I could address some of these comments, in hopes of better
    understanding ...

    Admin Studio is not cheap. After a client has spend thousands of
    dollars to implement ZENWorks, now I have to tell them to drop another
    couple thousand down for an application packager. I also don't fully
    understand Novell's relationship with the product, they don't seem to be
    partnering well together, I'd appreciate anyone else's read on this
    relationship.

    I've heard that statement made verbally by many engineers, but I don't
    always see the practice following that.
    Has Novell ever gone on record to state they will no longer support snap
    shot???

    Maybe I've just gotten lucky? I've have not had many issues with using
    snapshot, and I have been involved in a wide variety of applications.
    I have seen the statement made on the forum that ZEN Works is not really
    a "Packaging" suite. While that may be a true statement, because
    Snapshot has been packaged with the product for so long, the mind set of
    customers is that it is expected to work, and be supported.
    I look forward to additional comments on this matter.

    Tom,
    I'm not sure what exactly are you searching for? ZdM is already providing
    you with snapshot replacement - AdminStudio ZfD edition, included in ZfD
    price.
    AdminStudio part for preparing snapshot MSI is identical in ZfD and
    Professional edition.
    All comments you qouted (including this one) are personal opinions - I
    suggest you to try AdminStudio ZfD edition and make your own.

  • I have a Macbook Pro (2009) and the tool bar in Safari keeps disappearing. There's a small diagonal arrow on the upper right that I can click and the bar will appear temporarily, but then it disappears from view. "Hide Toolbar" is greyed out in VIEW

    My 2009 Macbook Pro's Safari doesn't show the tool bar anymore.  I can click on a diagonal arrow in the upper right corner that appears when I put my cursor there and the tool bar will show, but then it disappears again.  Also, when I get an email and click on an internet link the Safari doesn't open full page like it used to - it opens as a small little box and I have to click the diagonal arrow in upper right corner for it to open full screen.  Any ideas how to correct this - it is so annoying.  Thanks for any help!

    The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
    Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
    However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.

    I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

  • Firefox main window goes black and all tools disappear.

    Occasionally the Firefox main window will go black and all tools disappear.
    It ends up with a black window, a blue frame, and the three buttons in the top right corner (minimize, maximize and close). If any audio (or video) is playing, the sound continues. If I click the X at top right to close it, it closes and when I restart it everything is ok. See the screenshot below.
    This only happens once a day or so. I have no way of predicting it other than I'm usually scrolling down the page when it happens. It has happened in safe mode.

  • How can I use the "Copy and paste" tool in order get stamps in the same position in different pages (Acrobat XI for PC)?

    With Acrobat 6.0 I was able to copy a stamp in the same position (I mean "exactly" the same one) of different pages just by using the "copy/past" tool.
    Now I am using Acrobat XI and it seems like it is not possible anymore: I am copying a stamp and I am trying to past it in anoter page, but it appears in the center of the page (or wherever it wants to...).
    Does anyone have a solution?

    I have two faults! 1, an error comes up in Ps CC 2014 "could not apply the saved panel configuration, restring to default and my tools have disappeared completely and anything ive tried I cannot get them back not even the drop down menu in 'window' helps at all. And 2, Lr everytime I load it up it gives me the option to retry or switch to and it takes a while for me to even get anywhere with it I think it has something to do with the catalogs? I've been using these programs for a few years now on a Mac...no problem but when I use a PC when I'm away coz it's the (only) comp available these happen PC's are so useless! Please can anyone help??...

    I can give a few suggestions on Photoshop CC 2014, but Lightroom is a separate forum and you should ask Lr questions there.
    First close Photoshop.
    Then start Photoshop by double-clicking on it's icon and very quickly after that, hold down the ctrl-alt-shift keys until you see the reset dialog. answer "Yes" to delete settings, and let Photoshop continue to load.
    It's tricky to do and may take a few tries, but at least it should reset Photoshop CC 2014 to defaults.

  • File Server Resource Manager will not load WMI Objects on Windows 8.0/8.1 Preview with Hyper-V and Server Tools Loaded

    Hi Folks,
    I have a problem getting "File Server Resource Manager" to start properly because WMI objects are not loading??? I don't understand this at all because I am able to access them with other Apps, etc. I have been over my Services list as well but
    have not yet discovered which Service turns on/off "File Server Resource Manager". I have looked in Windows\System32\ and I can not find SrmSvc. I found other Srm's there though. I also found the FSRM Snapin which generates the Figure below but I
    can not find it in the WMI Browser. I believe the Firewall is OKAY since I have been over that thoroughly. I do have the Server Tools Installed for Windows 8.0 or Windows 8.1 Clients as well as the Windows Updates applied, which is where I got "File Server
    Resource Manager" in the first place. I have had WMI and Powershell 3.0 Package, installed since Windows 7 but I run a repair on them anyway.
    I have read through "File Server Resource Manager could not load WMI objects on Windows Server 2012
    Article ID: 2831687" but since I don't seem to have SrmSvc the solution doesn't help me. I haven't been able to find a similar one for the Windows Client.
    If there is anything you could share on this problem I would be much obliged.
    Thanks again,

    No, unfortunately, you have to use the one that's available.

  • Project Bloating and Repair in Premiere Pro CS6; Max Project File Size? Adobe Coders Welcome...

    Greetings.
    After a few browsing sessions, I haven't found direction for a specific problem within a project bloat. First and foremost; we're always backed up. I have a restoration copy of the project that I will reference herein. Check that off the list.
    Numerous people have posted here and around Creative Cow with problems regarding an expanding file size using CS6; watching files go from 300mb to 2.8gb. The unfortunate problem is when the project crosses a magical line that results in an inablity to open, import, export, or access sequences contained therein. Has anyone addressed a solution to repairing Premiere CS6 save files? Reducing file bloat? I haven't seen anything (recall the FCP7 repair days... solutions existed because problems were frequent; thankfully not so bad with Adobe).
    Does anyone inside the code size know the maximum project file size that Premiere can read? I created a monster... Over 200 sequences utilizing 4.5TB of footage, stretching from Red codecs to EXCam to MPEG4 and H264. And for some time, the project size was manageable. Then, it inflated. And one day, randomly stopped opening. None of the auto-saves open.
    Just curious. Files aren't the problem, but the 2.8GB save file is. Machine specs // etc. are openly available if required; no bad ram, no problems with all projects (just this one beast).
    Cheers,
    Jon Michael Ryan

  • It's official: 9/24 MacL webcast, iTU/Woolamaloo (and YOUR tool too!)

    Hi guys,
    It's official ... the next MacLearning.org webcast (September 24th at 10:00 AM PDT) is going to be all about iTunes U and Woolamaloo. I'll be presenting, along with Apple's own Miguel Young. I'll send more detail later ... but the date, time, and theme are set. I mean, I've already got, oh, like 25 slides made ... so this is serious.
    And while I'll be spending some time talking about Woolamaloo, I also want to highlight some of the awesome things you guys are doing (and there are some really cool things out there). I think I know where most of the stuff is, but I hate to miss anyone/anything. If you could pop me off an e-mail ([email protected]) ... tell me a little about yourself and your tool, I'll be sure not only to check it out (if I haven't played with it already) and mention you, your tool, and your website.
    Ultimately, though, the über-goal is to have MacLearning.org serve as a kind of portal ... a collection point ... for external tools and iTunes U expertise (ditto for Podcast Producer, etc. etc.). That way, you don't have to scour the forums for links to this kind of stuff ... for "how to's" and "here is the story of how we implemented yadda, yadda". The idea is not to replace the iTunes U forums here ... but to give you a simpler way to find the info you need. A first step is collecting info tools/techniques ... getting your story if you have a tool or solution.

    I just got the final details from the mothership. Here they are:

  • Windows Server 2003 and Microsoft Assessment and Planning tool (MAP)

    Preparing for the end of support for Windows Server 2003 (4/2015) and the need to migrate from Windows Server 2003, I have been directed on several sites run the Microsoft Assessment
    and Planning tool (MAP) to aid in identifying any software and hardware issues.   Apparently this tool has been recently updated (7/2014) and cannot be installed on a Windows Server 2003 system.  As it requires .NET Framework 4.5 to run.  Unfortunately,
    .NET Framework 4.5 cannot be installed on a Windows Server 2003 as it only supports .NET 4.0.x versions.  All older version links to the MAP tool have been updated to link directly to version 9.1.  Where can I get a MAP tool version that will run
    on Windows Server 2003?  

    Hi,
    Yes, i would agree with arnavsharma
    After the environment scan has been completed in Windows Server 2008r2 or another supported OS, MAP looks at computers running earlier versions of Windows.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ee677580.aspx
    Meanwhile, for the MAP related issue, you'd better ask in MAP forums:

  • Acrobat pro: how set default properties for arrow and line tool seperately?

    I have a problem with the 'comment and markup' tools in Adobe Acrobat Pro.
    I would like to change the defaults of some of the tools, eg the arrow and the line tool.
    This can be achieved by right-clicking on something drawn using the tool in question and then selecting 'properties' - or by selecting the tool and then press ctrl+E, wich opens a 'Callout Tool Properties', and then change what you want there. The latter option keeps the changes as defaults - the former offers a box to tick in the 'properties' dialogue that opens - or, you can right-click on the object again after having changed the properties, and then select 'Make Current Properties Default'.
    My Problem is now, that, apparently, you cannot choose and save default properties freely and for each tool. I woul like to have the default properties for the line tool set as the following:
    -line color: yellow
    -line thickness: 8pt
    -opacity: 60%
    and fot the arrow tool as this:
    -line color: red
    -line thickness: 1pt
    -opacity: 100%
    This all works fine as long as the program is open. As soon as I exit and start it again opening another document /the same one again, the arrow tool changes to
    -line color: yellow
    -opacity: 60%
    only the line thickness remains at 1pt.
    If I change the properties of the line to the ones I want for the arrow, the arrow properties remain unaltered if I close Acrobat Pro.
    Why do these properties interfere? Why is it "line color/thickness" in both? Why, then, do only the opacity and the color interfere, but not the thickness - even if it's the latter two properties that are bot called "line xxx"? Why does Acrobat not save all properties for these two shapes seperately - even IF the two shapes are both of a line-like kind?
    Is there a way to get around this?

    Trobbel - This indeed is puzzling behavior. Clicking 'Make Current Properties Default' should preserve the default  appearance for each. I don't have a solution, but merely a couple of suggestions:
    1) Make sure you have installed any available upgrade for your version of Acrobat Professional.
    2) Consider using the line tool exclusively - you can add an arrowhead and make one tool perform both tasks.
    Hope this helps. /rmbrown
