Loading Image from Photoshop with Tranparency

I am using PS CS3 and Final Cut Express HD 3.5. I have tried to bring a still with a tranparent background into FCE as both a gif ( with transparency turned on ) and as a PSD with a single layer created with the background eraser tool. When I bring it into FCE I have a white box around the image instead of the transparency I expected. Any suggestions on how to resolve this situation? Thanks for your help!

See if this is of any help:-

Issues with Loading Images from a Jar File

This code snippet basically loops through a jar of gifs and loads them into a hashmap to be used later. The images all load into the HashMap just fine, I tested and made sure their widths and heights were changing as well as the buffer size from gif to gif. The problem comes in when some of the images are loaded to be painted they are incomplete it looks as though part of the image came through but not all of it, while other images look just fine. The old way in which we loaded the graphics didn't involve getting them from a jar file. My question is, is this a common problem with loading images from a jar from an applet? For a while I had tried to approach the problem by getting the URL of the image in a jar and passing that into the toolkit and creating the image that way, I was unsuccessful in getting that to work.
//app is the Japplet
MediaTracker tracker = new MediaTracker(app);
//jf represents the jar file obj, enum for looping through jar entries
Enumeration e = jf.entries();
Toolkit toolkit = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
//buffer for reading image stream
byte buffer [];
while(e.hasMoreElements())
fileName = e.nextElement().toString();
InputStream inputstream = jf.getInputStream(jf.getEntry(fileName));
buffer = new byte[inputstream.available()];
inputstream.read(buffer);
currentIm = toolkit.createImage(buffer);
tracker.addImage(currentIm, 0);
tracker.waitForAll();
images.put(fileName.substring(0, fileName.indexOf(".")), currentIm);
} //while
}//try
catch(Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
}

compressed files are not the problem. It is just the problem of the read not returning all the bytes. Here is a working implementation:
InputStream is = jar.getInputStream(entry);
ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream(1024);
try{
byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
int read;
while((read = is.read(buf)) > 0) {
os.write(buf, 0, read);
catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(os.toByteArray());
This works but I think you end up opening the jar a second time and downloading it from the server again. Another way of getting the images is using the class loader:
InputStream is = MyApplet.class.getResourceAsStream(strImageName);
In this case, the image file needs to be at the same level than MyApplet.class but you don't get the benefit of enumerating of the images available in the jar.

Load image from SQL database with ASP?

Hello,
Does anyone know a tutorial where you can load an image from
a SQL database ?
I would like to show this image in Flash, but i don't know
how to load in from a SQL database using ASP.
Regards,
Micheal

Flash cannot load images from an SQL database.
Flash can load JPEG, PNG, GIF, SWF, MP3, and FLV files.
An SQL database can be used to store the file names and their
location. ASP can retrieve that data from the SQL and return to
Flash to load the above file formats.
For Flash to do the communication with ASP you need to
determine if you are using URL Encoded or XML data structures.
For URL Encoded data you look at
LoadVars.sendAndLoad
For XML Encoded data you look at
XML.sendAndLoad
Then in their onLoad methods you use
MovieClip.loadMovie
to load JPEG, GIF, PNG and SWF;
Sound.loadSound
for MP3,
NetConnection.connect,
Video.attachVideo and NetStream.play for FLV.
For the ASP side the work with the database has nothing to do
with Flash other than using any search variable sent from Flash
with LoadVars.sendAndLoad or XML.sendAndLoad. In other words it
could be an HTML form sending the same variable and calling the
same ASP script. Same with returning values except with Flash only
URL Encoded or XML data structures are sent back and not
HTML.

'cut-out' images from Photoshop import into FCE with unwanted background

I want to import some custom 'cut-out' images from Photoshop, but they come into FCE with a rectangular background around them. Is there a way to import just the irregular 'cut-out' image?
Bob

Make sure the images are RGB 8-bit and in a format that carries an alpha channel or Photoshop transparency like Photoshop, TIFF, PNG, even PICT.

Exporting text as an image from Photoshop

I am using a non web safe font and so I am exporting the body of text as an image from Photoshop. Canvas size 900 x 600 pix 72 dpi. However when viewing in the web browser the text looks soft and pixelated.
Does anybody know how I can solve this?   All I want is sharp lookinh text!
J

Hi Vikas
I export files from Photoshop as png's at 72 dpi.
Here is our current holding page. http://www.iheartmylife.co.uk/ All the text on this page has been loaded in as png's from Photoshop along with the image. As you can see none of it is as sharp as it could be.
Many thanks for your assistance.

How to insert cropped images from photoshop without the white background

Basically all I want to do is take a peice of writing from a video and insert it into another video. To do this I've took a screenshot of the font from the video and imported it into photoshop. I've then cropped/cut/took the the peice of writing I want, letter by letter. I want to be able to insert it into another video, but whenever I attempt to do it, I have the default white background of photoshop. Is there anyway to insert an image from photoshop, without taking the background with it, or even insert a layer from photoshop straight into final cut pro? Sorry if this is confusing.

I don't think so. I cropped the letters, put them each an individual file, removed the background, saved them as a TIF then tried to import them onto Final Cut Pro, but a white background still appeared in the TIF file. Basically I just want to make the background transparent I believe.

Problem: importing a transparent image from Photoshop to Premiere.

Dear Adobe community,
I am trying to import a transparent image from Photoshop to Premiere Pro CC. Whatever file format I choose to export from Photoshop, Premiere Pro CC will not import the file correctly. When I import is, two things occur: 1) the image gets imported, but the white background is still there or 2) the image gets an error "The importer reported a generic error".
Does anyone have an idea how I can get an image with a white background transparent into Premiere Pro CC.
Specs:
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, eind 2013)
2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
16GB RAM
1536MB Intel Iris videocard
Thanks!
Christiaan

You need to make sure the image has an alpha channel.
Images like jpeg dont have an alpha channel.
Psd or png do and the image has to be RGB.
Make sure the background in PS is also transparant.

Problem loading images from a return value of a function

hello, I write because I uin problem in loading images from a return value of a function.
I created a database with a field "image" of type string, where I put the physical address of the image. I have written like this: {__DIR__ }foto.jpg
Place the code, so you understand better
function imageViewImage(): javafx.scene.image.Image {
connetti();
lass.forName(driverName);
con = DriverManager.getConnection(url,user,"");
stmt = con.createStatement();
var richiesta:String = "SELECT image from viaggio WHERE id_viaggio=7";
rs1 = stmt.executeQuery(richiesta);
var result :String;
rs1.next();
risultato = rs1.getString("image");
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, result);
var imagez = Image{
url:"{result}";
return imagez;
The image is in the source code package
First I connect to the database, run the query and I take the contents of the image.
Can anyone help me?
Is right to put in the database {__DIR__} foto.jpg or do I put only foto.jpg?

Hello unkus_nob,
I would rather suggest you to save only filename of that image like "foto.jpg" in database. And just concat it with the String variable containing "{__DIR__}".
Actually the javafx compiler converts the {__DIR__} to the existing class directory path something like : "jar:file:/..../".
var currentDir ="{__DIR__}";
risultato = "{currentDir}{rs1.getString("immagine"})";
var image = Image{
url:risultato
return image;--NARAYAN G.

Load image from a cursor .cur file.

Hi all,
I want to create a customized cursor, and I have a Microsoft cursor .CUR file. Can I load this .cur file as an image? - Thank you
Edited by: trangkd on Aug 9, 2011 3:08 PM

Hi,
I've been google-ing up-and-down, but couldn't find any implementation of .cur and Java. If anyone has done so, please post... I was looking for an easy way i.e. couple lines of code to load image from a .cur file .. like we do with gif or jpeg out of the box. The JIMI has an extensive support of many other formats, and it will be an alternative if the graphics department won't give us a new set of cursor images in gif/jpg format.
Thanks so much.

Problem loading image from jar file referenced by jar file

First, I searched this one and no, I didn't find an answer. Loading images from jar files has been pretty much done to death but my problem is different. Please read on.
I have my application, a straight up executable running from Eclipse. It uses a jar file, call it JarA. JarA launches a GUI that is located in another jar file. Call it JarB. To recap:
My application calls JarA -> JarA loads classes from JarB -> JarB looks for images to place in a GUI it wants to show on the screen
When JarB goes to load an image the following happens:
java.lang.NullPointerException
     at sun.misc.URLClassPath$3.run(URLClassPath.java:316)
     at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
     at sun.misc.URLClassPath.getLoader(URLClassPath.java:313)
     at sun.misc.URLClassPath.getLoader(URLClassPath.java:290)
     at sun.misc.URLClassPath.findResource(URLClassPath.java:141)
     at java.net.URLClassLoader$2.run(URLClassLoader.java:362)
     at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
     at java.net.URLClassLoader.findResource(URLClassLoader.java:359)
     at java.lang.ClassLoader.getResource(ClassLoader.java:977)
     at org.cubrc.gmshell.gui.MainWin.preInit(MainWin.java:152)
     at org.cubrc.gmshell.gui.MainWin.<init>(MainWin.java:135)
The code from JarB that loads the image looks like this:
          URL[] oSearch = {Main.class.getResource("images/")};
          URLClassLoader oLoader = new URLClassLoader(oSearch);
          imgIcon = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("icon.gif"));
          imgMatchRunning = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("gears.gif"));
          imgMatchStill = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("gears-still.gif"));
          imgMagnify = new ImageIcon(oLoader.getResource("magnify.gif"));This looks right to me and JarB certainly has an images directory with those files. But I'm in hell right now because I don't know where to place the images to make this work or if you can even attempt to load images with a dependency chain like this.
Any help very appreciated!

Have you tried to move your image-files out of the jar file and place them in the sam folder as the jar-file? I think that would help.
When you try to load the image-file you get the NullPointerException because the program tries to read a file it can't find. Remember that a jar file IS a file and not a directory.
If you want to read somthing inside the jar-file you need to encode it first.
Have you tried to read the jar-file with winRar. It makes it easy to add and remove files in your jar-file.

How do you load images from a Win7 machine to iPhone?

Hi. How do you load images from a Windows 7 PC to an iPhone 4? I'd like to load the pictures to use as wallpapers. Thanks.

You CANNOT transfer photos from your computer to your iPhone when connected to your computer as an external drive. This is for transferring photos and/or video from your iPhone's Camera Roll to your computer's hard drive ONLY.
To transfer photos from your computer's hard drive to your iPhone, this is selected under the Photo's tab for your iPhone's sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.

How to load images from BLOB to javascript?

hi, Guys:
I need to load thumbnail images from BLOB to multiple markers' infowindow in Google map . I have implemented Google map in APEX. I load the data suchas text for every marker's infowindow from Oracle database table with PL/JSON, and infowindow works fine. Could anyone give me a suggestion or example so I know how to load images to javascript?
Thanks a lot.
Database: Oracle 11g R2
APEX: APEX 4.1
Thanks.

hi, VC:
Thanks for your kind reply. I need to render these images out of APEX session, actually in javascript that is related to Google map markers' infowindow.
I checked the documents of APEX_UTIL.GET_BLOB_FILE_SRC, but my impression is I need to use it in APEX instead of javascript if my understanding is correct. I already implemented a procedure with PL/SQL to load images from a BLOB column in Oracle database. But the problem is, how can I pass it to javascript code out of APEX to javascript (I could pass text or number from APEX to javascript with PL/JSON though,But I assume that still google map will be within a valid apex session? if so you should be able to use the above api.
Basically what this api does is generates a kind of url to each blob in the database, not sure how google api's deal with this though. Why don't you give it a try?
The other option is to make your pl/sql procedure public and then you can generate the json to include the images urls such as:
     "employees" : [{
               "firstName" : "John",
               "lastName" : "Doe",
               "imgSrc" : "http://somewhere/db_schema.your_download_proc?p_file=#ID#",
               "firstName" : "Anna",
               "lastName" : "Smith"
               "imgSrc" : "http://somewhere/db_schema.your_download_proc?p_file=#ID#",
               "firstName" : "Peter",
               "lastName" : "Jones"
               "imgSrc" : "http://somewhere/db_schema.your_download_proc?p_file=#ID#",
}And then you can use this new attribute to populate the images in javascript using standard img tag
See this tutorial http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14373_01/appdev.32/e13363/up_dn_files.htm
I did not find any method in PL/JSON to pass image object)? So far I only found example to load images from local files to javascript.Hmm..I don't think you should load image objects.
