Need help using the "skatter" function with brushes.

I'm using Photoshop 7 right now. I want to use the scatter function with one of the standard brushes to make a star trail, but the problem is that the stars are too thick, there's too many of them. How do I tell it to draw less instances of the brush when I'm in scatter mode? So that it's only dropping 5 at a time or so?

I have a control bar for "Master Diameter" but I can't find anything that says "spacing."

I need help using the "GetCursorPos" function in the user32.dll on a machine running Win98.

I'm able to get the x axis information by setting arg1 to TYPE=Numeric, DATA TYPE=Signed 32-bit Integer, PASS=Pointer to Value. I wired a zero to the input.
When I setup arg2 the same, LabView crashes.???
This is the first time I've attempted to access a dll, and I'm not sure I'm on track with the operation and I appreciate any help with this matter.

Hi,
What you are doing now is:
BOOL GetCursorPos(
LPPOINT lpX // cursor's X
LPPOINT lpY // cursor's Y
This is not correct! The Api pop only one parameter from stack, and returns
to the second. The second parameter should be the return andress (set
automatically), but in your case it's a pointer to lpY! So LV crashes!
This is the prototype of GetCursorPos:
BOOL GetCursorPos(
LPPOINT lpPoint // cursor position
Wire a cluster to the first parameter (set the dll to "adapt to type"). the
cluster should have two U32's in it.
Regards,
Wiebe.

You aren't addressing anyone from Apple here. This is a user forum.
You might want to call a neaby Apple store to see if they have a free class you could attend.

I am getting this error: "The key could not be obtained. You may need to use the -keystore argument with the specified keystore type." when trying to create an apk file using adt.

Could a self save from premiere cause the problem? By this i don't mean the autosave.
Autosave is the only kind of 'self save', and is not likely to 'cause' project corruption.
thnx for your reply. My first question came from a remark of Gakhue:
"I'm using CS6 and I got that warning, I copied my project file on usb stick and re-opened in a different computer using CS5, it then gave me a few warnings about changing the name and saving it to auto save fault, I clicked away and said yes to each one"
So i wondered how he did it
The second question came from the fact that my last save was from 17 minutes after i left my studio. And i am not talking about an autosave. It was the main save of the corrupted videofile. And since i did not do it myself, the only option left is that Premiere did it? Or that premiere does not use the internal Mac clock and is on a different time. Which is not the case (just tested).

Using the IF function with a range of numbers

I am working with the IF function and trying to get it to work "if" the number I'm examining is within a range of numbers.
Example:
If a wigit costs between $1000 and $1999, then a discount of $100 is given
If a wigit costs between $2000 and $2999, then a discount of $150 is given
If a wigit costs between $3000 and $3999, then a discount of $225 is given
And so on.
If cell A1 always holds the current cost of the wigit being sold.
cell B1,B2,B3 holds the value of the discount values respectively.
In cell C1 I would like to return what the current discount value is to be given for the wigit price in cell A1?
How do I do this using the IF function or is there another way?
Thanks,
Ryan

HI Ryan,
In this post you have, except for the issue noted by Badunit, the basis for the discount table described by Wayne:
I'm trying to devise a way of knowing what Cash Card a customer will receive depending on the amount of the purchase, based on the following table:
$0         to $999 purchase         =      $50 Cash Card
$1,000 to $1,999 purchase     =     $100 Cash Card
$2,000 to $2,999 purchase      =     $200 Cash Card
$3,000 to $3,999 purchase      =      $300 Cash Card
$4,000 to $4,999 purchase      =      $400 Cash Card
$5,000 to $5,999 purchase      =     $550 Cash Card
$6,000 to $6,999 purchase     =      $700 Cash Card
$7,000 to $7,999 purchase      =     $850 Cash Card
$8,000 to $8,999 purchase     =      $1,000 Cash Card
$9,000 to $9,999 purchase     =     $1,200 Cash Card
$10,000 to   UP   purchase     =     $1,500 Cash Card
To take care of the issue noted by Badunit, you need to revise the top line to state the minimum purchase necessary to earn a cash card, then add a line above that to handle purchases under that amount. I've arbitrarily chosen a $500 minimum, which results in these two lines:
$0             to $499 purchase        =      $0 Cash Card
$500         to $999 purchase         =      $50 Cash Card
To write this as Wayne's table, you need to remove all of the text (including the $ currency markers), the top end of each range, and the = sign. What you're left with is two columns of numbers: The bottom number of each range of values, and the number telling the dollar amount of the cash card for that range. Here's your table, edited to make it work with LOOKUP:
Here is a second table (Main), containing only the labels and the two cells involved in the calculation of the cash card amount. The Purchase amount is the amount used in your example. The Cash Card amount is produced by the LOOKUP formula below the image.
Purchase price is in cell B1 of the table "Main". The LOOKUP formula is in B2:
B2: =LOOKUP(B1,CC Amt :: A,CC Amt :: B)
LOOKUP acts essentially as you request in your post containing the iPad image with the time shown as 1:46. But it takes a much simpler approach.
Here's the syntax:
LOOKUP(search-for,search-where,return-from)
LOOKUP gets the search-for value (2535) from cell B1.
It looks in column A of the table "CC Amt" for the largest value less than or equal to the search-for value, and finds 2000.
It returns the value from the same line of column B (200).
Below are two more examples. Main-2 and Main-3 are copies of the Main table. Both contain exactly the same formula as Main, but have had a different Purchase price amount entered. LOOKUP uses the same CC Amt table as is used above, and returns the appropriate Cash Card value for each of the two new amounts:
You may, as implied in your 1:46 post, use a pair of cells to calculate the Cash Card amount for each widget in the purchase, then total the Cash Card amounts, or you may use a single pair of cells, one containing the total purchase amount, the other containing the Cash Card amount due for that total. That choice is yours. The formula is the same for either case.

Barry

Need help using basic interger function

I made a basic program to calculate the arrival of a trail, but the problem
is that when i get the result of sum6 it comes out as 13.833333333333333.
I just want to remove all the numbers after 13 for the printout answer?!?!!?!
I know i have to use the "int" function to do this, but where & what do i put
in my code to do that?
thanks!!!!
// DECLARE VARIABLES/DATA DICTIONARY

double sum1,sum2, sum3, sum4, sum5, sum6, sum7, sum8 ; // Intermediate, sum of num1, num2, and num3
// READ IN GIVENS
System.out.println ("Please enter hour value of start time: ");
num1 = ITI1120.readDouble( );
System.out.println ("Please enter minute value of start time: ");
num2 = ITI1120.readDouble( );
System.out.println ("Please enter the speed of train (in km per hour) : ");
num3 = ITI1120.readDouble( );
System.out.println ("Please enter travel distance (in km) : ");

    travelKm = ITI1120.readDouble( );
    startMinutesFromHours = startHour * MINUTES_PER_HOUR;
    totalMinutes = startMinutesFromHours + startMinutes;
    velocityKmPerMin = velocityKmPerHr / MINUTES_PER_HOUR;

Using the Capture function with a Capture Card

I was wondering why I can't get premiere to recognize my capture card when I try to use the capture function.

Ah, then you are out of luck. Premiere only captures via firewire.
If your camera has usb then copy content of memory or card to hard disk then import into Premiere.

Need help using NI-488.2 with C++

First some background. I have an existing Windows application (written in MS Visual C++ 6.0) that essentially acts like a printer/plotter. There is a worker thread that receives data asynchronously from a serial port and writes the data to a file for later processing.
Now some of my customers want me to add a GPIB interface in addition to the serial interface. I have downloaded every document, application note, etc., from NI's site that I could find but I'm not finding enough information to help me figure out how to add the interface.
This is what I want to do (in a nutshell):
1) Application has to run on Win95/98/NT/2K/XP. This shouldn't be any problem but I thought I'd mention it.
2) Application has to run whether the
NI-488.2 device driver is loaded or not. For this reason I'll use what NI calls "direct entry" to access the GPIB-32.DLL (i.e. use LoadLibrary(), GetProcAddress(), etc.).
3) Receive GPIB data asynchronously from an NI GPIB interface board (e.g. PCI-GPIB) using a worker thread (same as I do for serial data).
The requirement as I see it is very simple - receive data asynchronously. But for the life of me I don't see any functions in the NI-488.2 API that I can use for event notification in a worker thread. It also seems like there isn't much in the way of sample code that I could find. The sample code I did find involved sending a command to a GPIB device and then reading the data back from the device.
I'm just in the research stage so I haven't installed the NI-488.2 driver or a GPIB card. No point spending money unless I can see a reasonable chance of success.
Does anybody know of some sample code, guidelines, etc., that may help me figure out how to use the NI-488.2 d
river to receive asynchronous data using a worker thread?
Thanks,
Mike

If file NIDevice.chm is intended for viewing by all customers, could you please move it to:
ftp://ftp.ni.com/outgoing/NIDevice.chm
A notice on machine ftp.ni.com says that as of January 23, 2004, it longer allows downloads from the incoming directory.
Domain name ftp.natinst.com doesn't seem to be accessible at all, though ftp.ni.com was accessible with the above notice.
By the way, some time ago I looked at the marketing pages for NIDevice and saw two different versions with wildly different prices (I think one cost about 20 times what the other cost). Can you say what the differences are?
Also a comment for the original poster: As a non-controller, I used ibnotify() to get a callback when the LACS bit turned on, i.e. w
hen the controller told me to listen. On speculation that the controller would really follow up that command by sending me data, my callback routine did an ibrda() and ibwait() with timeout.

I need help using the target path tool

Hi all,
I realise that I need to keep all my code on the main timeline, so now I need some serious help with targeting movieclips and buttons, when I use the target path tool (the little gun sight in the action script panel) it lets me navigate to the thing I want, but when I use it's suggestion it very often doesn't work, and I am left using trial and error to work it out. Ican get stuff to work, but I really have no idea why or how I am doing it, Sorry to be such a N00B, but I really think if I can work this out I am going to get somwhere.
Cheers

Thanks kglad,
OK that is basically what I have been doing, but its been a bit hit and miss, but maybe now I see why, your last sentence
of course, all those objects have to exist at the time your code executes.
So if I am referencing something inside a mc and it doesnt exist on the first frame there will be an error?
exactly.
also what is the this. Object() and Object(parent) ??
Do I need to be using these?
not when using code on the main timeline. "this" refers to the current scope which for code on the main timeline, is the main timeline. the following are the same:
this.mc and mc
this.var1 and var1
And still I want to know why the target tool gives me a path that doesn't work?
i can't tell you much about the target tool. i've never used it. but i tried testing it just now and it seemed to work correctly to target a nested movieclip. again, you must sure that object exists when your code executes so if you target something on frame 2 (or greater) of a movieclip using code on frame 1 of the main timeline, the reference may be correct but the object won't exist when your code executes. there are a number of ways to handle that if it's your main problem.

Why can't i use the ftp functions with a built file

I have created a report program that connects to an MS Access database and generates a series of reports from it. i also wanted to give the user the ability to download the database. we haev the database stored on a server at a different building. i have used the labview FTP function in the internet tool kit. the program works fine in the development mode. however if i build an application the ftp call fails to work. i have added traps so that if i get an error i will know it. unfortunatly the program flows through with no errors but the database is not copied.
i have also written an ftp function which works in the development mode and the application mode with no installer, but it does not work in the apli
cation mode with an installer.

Well once again I find myself on a machine that will not let be take a look.
I am glad to here that you have your app running.
I am troubled by by the solution. It makes me nervous when functions behave differently in the two environments. Have you run this past NI support?
I'll email myself this link as a reminder for monday.
Thank you for the update.

Since I do not understand at all what you are trying to do, I cannot correct your query, but I can explain the results.
The analytic function is doing a running count of the number of records that have been outout so far. With no duplicates, this is somewhat clearer.
SQL> WITH t AS (SELECT 1 om FROM dual UNION ALL
2             SELECT 2 FROM dual UNION ALL
3             SELECT 3 FROM dual UNION ALL
4             SELECT 4 FROM dual UNION ALL
5             SELECT 5 FROM dual)
6 SELECT om, COUNT(rownum) OVER (ORDER BY om) ps
7 FROM t;
        OM         PS
         1          1
         2          2
         3          3
         4          4
         5          5However, when you have duplicates, both duplicate values get the running count from the last of the duplicates (i.e. the highest running count). Here, I have duplicated 4 and see what I get:
SQL> WITH t AS (SELECT 1 om FROM dual UNION ALL
2             SELECT 2 FROM dual UNION ALL
3             SELECT 3 FROM dual UNION ALL
4             SELECT 4 FROM dual UNION ALL
5             SELECT 4 FROM dual UNION ALL
6             SELECT 5 FROM dual)
7 SELECT om, COUNT(rownum) OVER (ORDER BY om) ps
8 FROM t;
        OM         PS
         1          1
         2          2
         3          3
         4          5
         4          5
         5          6The "second" 4 record had a running count of 5 (i.e. it was the fifth record output), so both 4's get the same count. Changing the order by to descending shows the same effect, it just changes the running count:
SQL> WITH t AS (SELECT 1 om FROM dual UNION ALL
2             SELECT 2 FROM dual UNION ALL
3             SELECT 3 FROM dual UNION ALL
4             SELECT 4 FROM dual UNION ALL
5             SELECT 4 FROM dual UNION ALL
6             SELECT 5 FROM dual)
7 SELECT om, COUNT(rownum) OVER (ORDER BY om DESC) ps
8 FROM t;
        OM         PS

Need help using color checker passport with photoshop CS6

Hello all,
I'm having an issue using the Color Checker Passport with Photoshop CS6. Here's my configuration:
Mac Mini using OS 10.8, but very recently updated to 10.9 (Mavericks). My problem is the same on either OS version.
Photoshop CS6 ver 13.0.6 64 bit extended
Adobe Camera Raw 8.4
X-Rite Color Checker Passport ver 1.0.2
Canon 70D shooting RAW in sRGB color space
NEC Multi-Sync LCD monitor calibrated with Spyder 3 Pro ver 4.0.5
Now here's the issue. I go through the recommended workflow and generate a profile with no problem. Then in Camera Raw (after restarting all applications) I apply the profile to a photograph and instead of getting a nice color-corrected image my image has a greenish-yellow tint to it. It's very noticeable and I haven't been able to figure out what I'm doing wrong, if anything. I re-calibrated the monitor, re-did the workflow with other pictures, but still get the same result.
I greatly appreciate any help or ideas on how to remedy this. I've sent an inquiry to X-Rite via their Support Web Page, but haven't heard back from them yet.
Thanks,
Kevin H.

I have some strange (to me) occurrences while using the 'quick selection tool'...
Explanation
I'm using PS Elements 11 on a Win 7 (64) PC.
What I want to do is to create a new pic from an existing pic. The existing pic's background is unsuitable for what I want. But the FG is what I need. I thought that selecting the FG object and placing into a new pic would be what I needed using the <quick selection tool>.
To do this, I am trying to use the <quick selection tool>. I've had varying degrees of success using it. One main thing I don't understand & pretty much renders my project useless & undoable, is the fact that whenever I use <refine edge> so that I can refine my edge selection, my pic is immediately lost or taken away. Since I have no idea as to what's happening, I am forced to close the pic (W/O saving changes, of course) & then re-opening the pic. All's well until I click the <refine edge> button again, then, my pic disappears AGAIN!
My guess is that maybe the pic is somehow transformed to a layer or something. But, how can I turn this behavior off and not make my pic disappear??
There are a few more details about this <selection tool> that I'm muddy on. Is there something where I can read more about its use? I would love to know more, but how? Where?
I've now read the online manual part about selection tools. Although it shed some light, I'm still needing more.
I am not a constant user of PSE, rather, I only use it on occasions. Normally, I use its scanning features. I may play around with a few other features, but I also know that PSE offers many other powerful features, I rarely, if ever, use.
