Need to collect image layer properties

Hello there,
I posted a previous question, though I need to be more specific,
I need to collect the bottom anchor position of an image layer (y value) on a psd document, so I can resize the main psd bottom center anchor (y) size to match this.
Once again, any info is greatly appreciated

I highly recommend reading the JS Ref Guide sections for ArtLayer and Document in detail. Every entry.
The method you are looking for, in this case, is probably ArtLayer.translate().

Need to overlay image (layer) on text

Using Illustrator CC on a MacBook, I have a block text I would like to partially overlay an image on.
I want the waves to overlay the text and then not appear anywhere else.
Any help?

jaygrace,
Just an addition:The copy text must be in front of the waves, and it may be live Type, so if that is what you have you may keep it as such.

Measure a particular Layer Properties (width & height) through coding

Hi,
I am working on the Apparel Model images. Everyday we work with different models. Once done with the shooting process, we make the required correction on it so obviously we come across height issues at the retouch (Photoshop CS5) end.
The following steps will describe the process on how we do it. We have a template for the image cropping (Template's Width X height: 3700 X 5000 pxls). Usally we used to drag the template to the apparel images then will make a proportianate tranform for the template according to the model's height and crop it. this is what we are doing in the manual process. We have an idea of creating a script for this category. the same steps will be executed by the script. First Select the appropriate folder which will be processed by this script. application will open the images one by one. Steps: Open the Template image, copy and paste it on the another document. According to the Model's height make a proportianate transform to the template layer (In this step, we need to know about the particular layer properties for ex: (if the activeDocument's height is 3000pxls. the tranform will happen proportianately to the template layer).
My Question is How do we measure a particuler layer properties and how to access it through coding?
My Second Question is : How do we get the properties data and how it will be applied through coding?
I am waiting your reply.
thanks,
Rajiv.s

Open the Template image, copy and paste it on the another document.
Copy/pasting via Script is not such a great idea, the method duplicate may be a better fit to duplicate a layer into another file or group.
My Question is How do we measure a particuler layer properties and how to access it through coding?
Layers habe a property called bounds, this describes the left, top, right and bottom coordinates.
It may be prudent to set the unitRulers via the Script to make sure they are always the same units (px, pt, mm …).
#target photoshop
var theBounds = app.activeDocument.activeLayer.bounds;
var theWidth = theBounds[2] - theBounds[0];
var theHeight = theBounds[3] - theBounds[1];
alert ("layer is " + theWidth + " x " + theHeight);

Program error when opening layer properties

Hi! I have a really difficult problem in Photoshop. Whenever I try to open the layer properties I get the error message "Could not complete your request because of a program error." I tried to fix it but I really don't know what to do. I am working on a huge project and I need this fixed as soon as possible. Thanks!

How do we get collection images to appear (provider hosting)?

Despite forcing a refresh and waiting several days, we are still not seeing the collection images show up in iTunes U using a feed from our in-development RSS feed service which is slated to replace our in-service machine in the next few weeks. One of the new features is the inclusion of channel/collection images in the RSS feed so this is an item of considerable concern for us.
The currently deployed system sent the same image for all channels/collections, a stock institutional logo. That got really monotonous very quickly. The new system enables the channel owner to upload a 300x300 image for each channel. So we have a set of two case studies to compare.
Currently deployed system
Feed: http://podcasting.usg.edu/4dcgi/podcasting/gcsu/channels21674/19013.xml
Appearance in iTunes U:
The relevant XML:
<channel>
     <itunes:image href="http://podcasting.usg.edu/stats/GCSU/logos/gcsu.jpg"></itunes:image>
Aside from the monotony of the same image for every channel/collection, this works as intended.
About-to-be-deployed system
Feed: http://denver.gcsu.edu/4dcgi/podcasting/gcsu/channels21674/19013.xml
Appearance in iTunes U:
The relevant XML:
<channel>
     <itunes:image href="http://denver.gcsu.edu/podcastdata/GCSU/Channel_19013/19013.png"></itunes:image>
Since you can paste the address of this image into a web browser and see it just fine, I’m at a loss to understand why iTunes U is unable to do so in this case (the in-development server) when it succeeds in the case of the currently deployed server. The structure of the RSS is exactly the same.
Now that both channels are published, a further mystery is pictured below. The “old” or currently deployed server displays the image in the RSS feed but the “new” server is displaying a podcast icon! Where did that come from? It certainly doesn’t look anything like the image we specified in the RSS feed for that channel.
From “What’s New” See All:
A possible clue:
Further on in the RSS for the new server, we attempt to provide an image for each of the episodes/items as follows:
<channel>
          <item>
     <itunes:image href="http://denver.gcsu.edu/podcastdata/GCSU/Channel_19013/podcast_6626/6626.png"></itunes:image>
Since iTunes U doesn't (yet) support uploaded images for episodes/items, I wondered if this might be the culprit. OTOH, unrecognized tags should be ignored.

It would help if you'd given some idea of what you've done so far, so that people don't waste time going through the things you've already done.
For example, you don't say whether or not you've connected the XServe RAID to a host system via the fiber channel cables. That's the first thing.
Have you yet configured the XServe RAID (using RAID Admin) with the array settings you want (e.g. RAID 5, RAID 1, one slice, 5 slices, etc., etc., etc.).
Out of the box, the XServe RAID will be configured for one RAID 5 array per side, so you might be OK there, but you might not.
Then does Disk Utility show the arrays at all?
If not, does System Profiler show the arrays connected?
If they are connected Disk Utility would usually show them, which might indicate the fiber channel cables are not connected.
If Disk Utility does show them, you might need to initialize the arrays. Once they're initialized they should appear on the desktop.

Photoshop Elements select tool, when targeting layer or multiple layers the layer properties box pops up. Having to very carefully and repeatedly select and highlight layers to move, or merge when using Move Tool. Win 8, Adobe 12, Intuos 4 w/ updated dr

This issue has been going on for several weeks.
The Move Tool is not functioning properly when selecting and TARGETING a layer or multiple layers, as the Layer Properties box pops up requiring me to close it and try again.
How to reset or is there an update and fix for this issue.
Using Win 8, Elements 12, and Intuos 4 Pen and Tablet.

To reset the tool I suggest click on it once and then look for something like this in the bottom half of your window:
In the above picture I have marked one section in red box. You need to click on it to get the option to either reset the only tool you have clicked or to reset all the tools in the editor window. Of course you have to be in Expert Mode to get this to work.
Good luck.

Better control of Layer Properties reveal/hide: HOW?

If there's one property I want to see, and only one, but it's an obscure one, how do I hide all other properties for that layer?
What if there's several of these properties that are a little obscure (no shortcut) and I want to see only them?
How do I only see the items I want to see in a Layer, and close all others properties?
How do I then see all properties and then add one of these properties to the desired view state, and now collapse back to only the properties I want plus this new one?
How do I save these view states for future return?
Apologies:
I don't even know the lexicon to ask this question properly, so excuse me getting this wrong, but please understand my intent.
I just want to work MUCH more efficiently and can't find a way to even search for this kind of information without wasting hours learning about the UU shortcuts etc that I already know for the layer properties that do have their own shortcuts for revealing and hiding them.

SS is a third of the way to the goal.
Fails at:
1. Showing ONLY the selected items. It shows their trees, too.
2. If the item is the top of the tree, one might expect the use desires to see all in that tree. NO. Tree is selected and shown with shortcut, but closed. Even if it was previously open.
3. As soon as you start editing keyframes, the selection state of these properties is changed, so this is a One use shortcut. After that you're going to get lost, and need to open all properties, Shift-Select the desired ones and SS again.
4. There's no way to save Selection Sets. And certainly no way to re-reveal them.
Imagine the joy of being able to Tap: SS4, for example, and bring up the properties stored in this preset?
"But how would you store a selection set?", I hear you ask.
Easy, like radio stations of old, in car stereos. Select Desired Selection Set. Tap SS4........ holding the 4, until there's a "BEEP". Selection Set is now set.
Come on Todd, it's 2015.
How hard is it to put property selection sets in AE, and correct for the rest of the issues above?

Layer properties in Firefox

Hi All;
In IE, layer properties such as color and borders expand
nicely when the
text in a table within the layer forces that table to expand
larger than the
designated size of the layer. In Firefox, the layer stays the
preset size
and does not expand with the table within. How do I get FF to
expand like IE
does ?
Thanks;
Pat

Live shape layer properties illustrator cc is missing

Dear Sir live shape layer properties illustrator cc is missing advice me Thanks

asim,
If no one gives a good reason and a way to conjure up the missing bits, you may start looking at the general list below (and hope you will not need to go too far down that dark road).
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences):
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Modify "object layer properties" on all odd/even pages based on...

Hello,
looking for a script to modify the "object layer properties" of placed .indd files.
Ideal, a script wich runs on all even pages (based on master B), and sets the object layer options to layer1 visible/2 invisble.
and on the odd pages: layer1 invisible/2 visible...
don't know where to start...
If there are some freelance scripters on the forum?
grts!!!

I'm looking for someone to write it for me.
Are you an experienced indesign scripter?
We very often need indesign scripts...wich language do you use?

In Lightroom 3 I am in Library mode in the Grid View and need to rearrange images, but it is not allowing me to move them.

I don't do a lot of dragging to custom arrange my images. But the custom order is right at the bottom of the list of sort orders on my computer.
Added later: But don't worry about the custom order. It doesn't make any difference on my system. Are you sure you are dragging the image itself, and not the border around the image?

SMS is a carrier feature, what did your phone carrier say when you contacted them about your issue?
Double check you have MMS turn on in message settings.

I want to find the image tag name from Image layer name InDesign JavaScript?

I want to find the image tag name from Image layer name InDesign JavaScript?

Hi,
You can use following script to fetch image tag name and the layer name on which it lie:
var imgBox = app.activeDocument.rectangles // fetch all rectangular frames from the active document
for(var i = 0; i< imgBox.length; i++)
if(null != imgBox[i].associatedXMLElement )
var b = imgBox[i]
alert("Image tag name "+imgBox[i].associatedXMLElement.markupTag.name + "\n exist on layer " + imgBox[i].itemLayer.name)
Hope this would help you to resolve your problem.

Need Help With Image Gallery

Hey all, I need a simple image gallery to load when you click a button. I've tried shadowbox but have had absolutely zero luck. I'm not sure how to load it from a flash file and I know there is work that has to be done outside of flash like in the root folder. All I need is for a simple image gallery, nothing fancy, to open when I hit a button. If anyone could explain how to use shadowbox in lamens terms or knows how to easily script a gallery that would be amazing.

What script version is your target? AS2 or AS3

Images and .properties(bunldes) files are not being found from my JSPs

Hi,
I have created .ear file by using ANT Application. And deployed into Oracle9iAS(OC4J). Here problem is that images and .properties(internationalization bundles)files are not found from JSPs.
Here is my directory structure.
public_html--->locale -->BusinessEntity -->businessentity_en_US.properties
--->enterprise -->images -->knowldege.jpg
--->BusinessEntity-->BEAdd.jsp
in my jsp bundle(.properties)file is accessed like this:-
<i18n:bundle baseName="/locale/-->BusinessEntity/businessentity" id="businessentity" locale="<%= locale %>" />
in my jsp images accessed like this:-
src="/enterprise/images/knowldege.jpg".
In my working environment, without creating .ear file, images and .properties files are being found my JSPs. But if i create .ear file and after deploy, images and .properties files are not being found my JSPs.
please let me know where i might did wrong
thanks in advance
