Navigator Thumbnails

The slides in Navigator view are too small to see the words or the images I've placed on the slides. Is there any way to make the thumbnails larger?

There is no way to make the thumbnails in the navigator larger.
I make Keynote presentation fairly often with a hundred odd slides sometimes. It can become difficult to navigate slides and to tell what's what. A good habbit to get into it to create groups by dragging a thumbnail to the right to make a tree type structure. You can then close this group to better organise your slides.
You can also choose from the View menu "Outline" where you can add text to each slide however you don't get previews of the slide.

The navigation thumbnail in the developpement panel is not refreshed

Since few days, the navigation thumbnail in the developpement panel is not refreshed (when the mouse is over a preset or when a modification is done on the image). When I'm coming from the grid panel and going to the developpement panel, the navigation thumbail is refreshed for the selected image but once I change the focus to another image it's not working anymore...
I tried to optimize the catalog and also re-generated images previews...
I'm using Lightroom 3.6 with Canon Raw files.
Do you have any clues ?
Thanks,

I hate to dredge up an old thread but.... I'm now for the first time seeing this same problem using LR 5 on a mac w 10.8.4 Exactly as the original poster indicated. Should I dump the pref file? or is there something else going on. I have restarted the computer but after applying a preset and then reverting to the original, no preset previews are available from my presets list. selecting another image does not fix issue.
Not a huge deal but annoying for sure. Anybody have a suggestion?

Scrollbar Navigation - Thumbnail Buttons

I am in the process of redesigning my photography website. I am creating a slide that has thumbnails going up the right side. When you click on one, it shows in the middle the enlarged picture. I used the loader component for the thumbnails and viewer. My question is this - how do I put the thumbnail loaders inside an area that scrolls? So, say I have more thumbnails than will fit on my page - I need the capability for them to scroll to see the rest.
If you want to see what I am up to, you can see the test pages at www.bephotodesigns.com/Crappy.html (I know, it's catchy). Click on 'portfolio' and then click on the 'be urban' picture to see the start of what I am doing.
Any help would be appreciated. I have tried loading a pre-fab slideshow program but haven't been able to get it to work. It was just easier (I suppose) to build this portfolio page from scratch.
Thanks again!

What you can do is place the thumbnails inside a movieclip and have controls to change the y location of that movieclip. You can either do it in a step fashion or a sliding fashion, but the main idea is to have the controls changing the y position of the movieclip. You can use a mask layer over the movieclip if you want to contain/frame the thumbnails within a specific viewing area.

Navigator thumbnail turns green instead of showing image when using Crop

I am very news to photoshop and I am using CS4 and have experienced a problem today that I have not encountered before.l When cropping a picture just a small green box with the normal red outline exists in Navigator howeverf if I click on Histroy the original pictgure will show back up on photoshop. Please tell what is causing this and how to fix it.
for the first three weeks I did not have a probloem with this issue, I am trying to get a fell for photoshop and then upgrade to the newest edition. Thank you,

This is definitely abnormal behavior, so I am moving this thread out of the Beginners forum.
Generally, behavior like this is caused by issues with a video driver. Make sure you have the most up to date drivers installed for your video card, as downloaded from your manufacturers web site.

Slide Size Mysteriously Changed

Hi,
I was working on a slide presentation and all of a sudden I noticed in Navigotor mode the thumbnail pictures of the top 2 slides were scrambled and undistinguishable. Then I noticed that the thumbnails seemed smaller for some reason and wondered if I just imagining it. Then, once I closed the document, chose not to save it, reopened... there was a left and right strip of white or "blank" margin on both sides of all of my slides and of the navigator thumbnail pictures were a little smaller in addition to the additional white margins that made them even smaller.
I first went to my "Document Inspector" and wanted to see if I could figure out what might have changed with the slide size but didn't see anything that might cause this to happen.
Is it possible my file became corrupted somehow and now I have to rebuild my whole presentation to remove the white borders and restore proper size to my presentation?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Steve

The file is acting as if the slide resolutions were inadvertently increased. This may be a symptom of corruption. You should be able to copy the information off of the slides, but I'm not sure there is a single fix to remedy the situation. Any material that is based on an object on the slide Masters (such as the title box and body box) can be changed across the entire presentation by changing those items in the relevant Masters. Perhaps someone else has run across this and has better advice for recovery.

Lightroom paste settings not working

I have noticed this problem in every edition of LR4. About 50% of the time right-click paste settings in develop module does not appear work.Typically this will happen when I have quickly selected a new image in the filmstrip and tried to paste settings while the image is still loading, or immediately after loading. I have noticed the following behaviour when trying to use right-click paste settings:
The lightroom taskbar processes to show that a task is working
Paste settings appears a new event in the history panel
The main image preview shows no change whatsoever
This happens regardless of what kind of settings are being pasted
Keyboard shortcut for paste settings work every time no problem
Using the 'Previous' button works fine
Here's the thing: when I hover the mouse over the paste settings event in the history panel, the image navigator thumbnail shows the image with the settings applied even though the main image appears not to have made any changes. I can click back one stage in the history and then click on the paste settings event and the main image updates. So for some reason, right-click paste settings is working but just not showing up on the main image. Any idea why, and how can this be fixed?
My settings: intel quad core, 8gb ram, Win7, brand new install (only lightroom 4.3 and windows running), cleared and replaced image previews.
[For what its worth, this and the many many other bugs in LR4 compared to the excellent LR3 make me wish I had never bought it - disappointing QC from Adobe in this product.]

You should install 4.4.1 update before anything else.

Photoshop CS5.1 Won't Load Images On Screen

I'm having the weirdest issue.... sometimes when I try and load an image it won't actually appear int he workspace. I can see it in the Navigator thumbnail and it's got a check next to the filename in the Window dropdown, but I cannot see it anywhere nor can I seem to be able to make it appear. Am I missing something or is there a shortcut key to force the image to the center of the screen/workspace? I have the latest Nvidia drivers installed and I've even downgraded to PS running in 32-bit mode, with no better luck. I finally disabled OpenGL which seems to fix the issue.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I'm on a MacBook Pro, 2.66 Ghz Core i7, 10.7.3, 8 GB of RAM

I'm surprised that Apple would attempt such a "hack" design... Switching graphics adapters mid-stream is no small task, and I can't imagine that they could ever make it work seamlessly.
Keep in mind that the nature of the complex GPU beast is that graphics hardware doesn't all work the same (or right) and application software has to make decisions about what to do and what not to do, and even when to invoke certain workarounds - or it would never be possible to run on multiple platforms.
Yes, that seems wrong, but it's necessary and it makes developing cutting-edge graphics applications in the real world much more expensive.
The decisions aren't re-made by an application all the time - that would slow things down terribly. Instead, often the run-time environment is characterized at application startup and the features remembered for later use. Modern applications actually even create programs (e.g., shaders or OpenCL programs) to run on specific GPU hardware, and they have to be compiled - something usually done by the application at startup.
Now imagine that someone changes the capabilities of the graphics hardware completely after the application has started - even from one vendor's implementation to another (Intel to nVidia).
Like I said, I'm surprised a reasonable system designer could ever think that swapping GPUs at run-time could be made to work. At least Apple allows you to turn it off!
Does Apple offer any "geek-level" configuration options that can force the use of a particular GPU for a given application? It seems that this could be an automated workaround that would allow a given application to see only one GPU, which is what Photoshop appears to need here.

Troubleshooting Rotated Pages

I just downloaded the trial version of Acrobat X. I'm working with documents that were scanned and saved as .pdf files. However, the documents are upsidedown. I have rotated the documents to be upright and then saved them. When I reopen the documents, they are still upsidedown. How can I fix this problem?

How are you rotating the pages?
If you use the View menu or the SHIFT/CTRL/+ keys, that's only a temporary effect. If you use the Tools > Pages > Rotate button, that's saved into the file. You can also do it via the page navigation thumbnails, select one or more pages and right-click (or press SHIFT/CTRL/R)

Image zoom component

Hi,
I'm looking for a good image zoom component with:
- zoom in / zoom out
- loading external jpg/gif/png
- preview navigation thumbnail
- drag to move image
I know "google is my best friend" but al what I find is old
mcs not really
user friendly, so if you know such a component...
thx,
lea

your link is busted, but I got a better one for you. It's a
view finder, you can resize it and tween it smaller so It gives it
a zoom effect! so whatever is inside of it, is what you are going
to see in your flash? cool eh, it's one of my most used objects?
The prob is, I don't know a link for it. my friend give it to
me. I can hook you up with it though a email though. SO since I
can't find your email,
Email me: [email protected] and remind me about this
convo and ask for the Z-cam I have. Cool? peace.

How can I hide page thumbnails navigation bar at the start up of Adobe Reader and open a pdf file?

How can I hide page thumbnails navigation bar at the start up of Adobe Reader and open a pdf file? I could not find this option under Preferences tab? Thanks

Hey there,
Thanks for your reply. That works for the files I do what you said. However, for files I have not done that, It still shows the navigation bar. Any idea, how to do it default for any files?
Thanks agian

Cannot select multiple thumbnails in Pages Navigation Panel in 9.4.5

I've installed the latest Acrobat Pro version for Mac, 9.4.5, on both my iMac and MacBook Pro. In both cases, I no longer can select multiple thumbnails of pages in the Navigation Panel's Pages panel. Anyone know a fix for this?

Navigation for Page Thumbnails no longer on sidebar, now a pop-up?

I've noticed in the last day or two that my Pages feature on the left hand navigation bar is no longer there. When I go to View>Navigation Panels>Pages it will come up but in a pop-up window. Why is this?
I rely on this feature to move pages back and forth between documents on two different monitors and the pop-ups for each document won't both appear at once. For example, when I click a thumbnail in a document on my left monitor the pop up that was in a document on my right monitor will disappear...therefore I have no where to drag the page to.
Is there any way that I can get the Pages navigation tool bar to show back up on the left hand side toolbar (with bookmarks, attachments, signatures, etc.)?
Btw, I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Professional, Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version 2002 SP3. I also have an Evermap Plug-in for bookmarks on my Adobe but I've had that for over 6 months and haven't had this issue until the last 2 days or so.
Thanks,
Jaime

Sometimes when an answer is that easy it can make you feel extremely dumb! That worked just as you both said. I'm not sure if I feel worse that it was that easy or that I spent two hours searching online and in the forums for the answer??
I really appreciate the quick--and correct--response gentlemen!

Can I adjust the amount of detail in thumbnails / navigation pane?

We have started making pdfs from Word 2004 documents, via Distiller. Word>Print>Save as ps>Distiller and the amount of detail in the thumbnails (which are embedded) is very low. Sometimes I can't tell if there is content on the page or not (his is when I am looking at the Pages section of the navigation pane.
Our previous work process had us creating a ps file via Framemaker 7. In those pdf files the pages view had a lot of fine detail, but we won't be using Framemaker anymore, since it's been dropped for the Mac.
I'm not talking about the thumnail size... I've looked at them larger and it still has no detail, only with a larger view.
I've looked at all the Distiller, Acrobat, and Word settings and preferences to see if there's a setting or dialog that will help, but I can't find any.
Any ideas?

Have you tried exporting using the Save as PDF button on the lower left of the Print dialog box? I don't know if that will help, but it might.
I have not tried that, but I will. I always thought that going through Distiller gave you better quality. That's how I was converting the .ps files before that were created out of Framemaker.
Your page thumbnails are strange, though. Are you using Distiller to convert fonts to outlines or something? Text is suppose to stay as text to help thumbnail previews
I'm not converting fonts to outlines. It's very strange... there must be a setting in Distiller somewhere that I have mis-marked... I'll be darned if I can find it though.
I've included a shot of pages from a previous project, there is a distinct difference.
