No original with before and after

PSE 11 on a mac. Before and after only showing the most recently edited version of my work. Not the original photo. Help

Sorry, but I'm still not sure I see what the problem is. When you enter QF or Guided, you will see the condition of your photo at that moment. If you've done editing in expert mode, for example--say you used Correct Color Cast--you'll see your photo just as it is at this moment, with the color cast corrected. Are you saying that when you make a change in quick fix, the before photo is changing to show what you did so that it looks just like the After view? If so, quit the editor and then restart it while holding down command+shift+option. Keep the keys down till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.
Or do you mean that in a previous editing session you had edited a photo and saved the changes, but now you want to go back to the original as your starting point. If the last, if you use organizer, go there and expand the version set and choose the original to send for editing. If you're using iphoto, you may need to right-click the photo and choose Revert to get back to your original again.

Proble with Before and After in camera raw

The problem that I am having is the before and after in Camera Raw. When I press the P key for before and after; CR display the before and after to whole changes that I made and not just to one section. Let say, I am in the Detail section and Just want to see what changes I made in the Detail section only. I used to press the P key, but now I am seeing all the changes that I made to my file. I am using Adobe Photoshop CC and all my software is updated. I appreciatre a fix to this problem with many thanks

Alternatevely you can take advantage of the new function recently introduced in CC. Press "Q" , this will split the monitor in two, (either vertically or horizontally) and each time you go to a new tab and make some change you can go back to previous state by clicking the icon in the bottom right corner (see the picture).
as you can see..you can "toggle between current settings and defaults for the visible panel"

Bug: Before and After Margins Layout with section starting in right page

Hi,
I am using the Spanish version of Pages 09. I have observed that when I start a new section, I have no problems setting the layout margins (right, left, before, after) of this section.
But if a set that the new section must start in a right page, then the "before" and "after" margins of the layout doesn't work.
Is this the same in English versions of Pages?
Regards,

I see what you are saying.
The problem is Pages seems to have a memory of how you arrived at that layout.
When I construct the pages, it is correct.
I am trying to find out what is interacting in your layout to cause this to happen. It is like there is a hidden inaccessible layout break on the blank inserted page.
I have been tearing my hair out trying to work out what triggers it off. As I experimented with the combinations of settings in Facing pages, Section layouts and which page it starts on, it erratically switches back and forth.
This is why I gave up on Pages years ago as a serious layout tool. It has too many of these raw, poorly thought out interactions. I use a lot of different applications and none of them, that I can think of, have so many of these mind twisting raw oddities. Odd for a supposed user friendly application.
All the rest are pretty literal, you apply the settings and end up with a logical result of those settings. If the result is not what you wanted it is a matter of tracking what is interacting with what and straightening it out. Pages has the annoying "design" of inexplicably greying out functions for no stated reason, that prevents correction. Or hiding the access to the tools to those settings. You can only get to some of them if you have explicitly done something to make them possible. The rules as to what that "something" is, are not apparent nor in most cases explained in the User Guide or the User Interface.
There may be a "reason" why the function is greyed out but it is not revealed to the user without an enormous amount of detective work and as in this case my sleuthing abilities are failing me completely. I might try it again tomorrow after a rest (it is very late here). Either way it is a huge time waster.
This is fundamentally bad User Interface design and what I have railed against since Apple changed shifts, bringing in the OSX programmers who never really got the polished UI of the original Mac OS and have been cooking with Fanta* ever since.

* This is an anecdote originally told by Peter Russell-Clarke, a well known and creative Australian chef back in the 70's. He was berated in the street by a woman who told him that his recipe for +Duck à l'orange+ was "disgusting". When he cross examined her, he found she didn't eat fresh fruit so had made the orange sauce with Fanta.
I use this to try and get the message over to clients when they insist on "substituting" material because "what's the difference". The trouble with people who can't tell the difference is that they rarely ever do, no matter how carefully it is demonstrated to them.

GREP: How can I place a (for example) "*" before and after bold text with GREP?

Hi there.
I have a string of text as such:
I want to use GREP to insert a "*" (asterisk) before and after each bold part. Can I do that with GREP?
(if asterisk is a problem, I can use a different character)
Any help would be appreciated.

Have either of you had any luck with this issue. It began happening to me today when I was trying to purchase music on iTunes. I have purchased music and games in the past and have had no problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Issue with Lightroom CC 2015's before and after (\) - Windows 7

Okay, I downloaded Lr CC 2015 and everything is working great except for one thing - before and after. I edit an image then move to another (settings synced but needs a few refinements). I finish the edit and hit \ to take a look at where it started. When I do so, Lr decides to go back to the previous image, thinks about it, then shows me the before of the correct image. After the first time pressing \ it doesn't happen again, unless you move to another image. A little irritating, but something I can put up with. Is anyone having the same issue? Everything is up to date; graphics, OS, etc. Also worth noting, this does not happen with Lr 5.7.
Any ideas, or should I post a bug report over on feedback.photoshop.com?
Thank you,
Benjamin

Issue with Lightroom CC 2015 - Before and After (\)

An extra page prints before and after a page with the data, why?

If I go to www.allrecipes.com, select a recipe and click on the Print button, FF prints an extra blank page before and after the recipe. The recipe is short and easily fits on a single page. I've changed all the print settings so that even the Header & Footer info is set to "Blank".

I don't understand why blank pages are generated, but I can help you with a quick hack if you like. This will strip off everything but the actual recipe area so that you can streamline the printout.
After you load the page and select your options:
* Open Firefox web console using Ctrl+Shift+k
* Next to the caret (>) paste the following script then press Enter to run it:
var rectbl = document.querySelector(".pageback table.recipeprinttable"); document.body.insertBefore(rectbl, document.body.firstChild); while(document.body.children.length>1) document.body.removeChild(document.body.children[1]);
* Close the web console by pressing Ctrl+Shift+k again
When you preview the page, it should look ready for printing. Any luck?
Obviously that's not very convenient if you print a lot of recipes from this site, so you could save the script as a bookmarklet. Here's how:
First, copy this slightly modified script (select, Ctrl+c):
javascript: var rectbl = document.querySelector(".pageback table.recipeprinttable"); document.body.insertBefore(rectbl, document.body.firstChild); while(document.body.children.length>1) document.body.removeChild(document.body.children[1]); void 0;
Next, if you are not displaying the Bookmarks Toolbar, you can display it using either:
* right-click a blank area of the tab bar > Bookmarks Toolbar
* tap the Alt key > View menu > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar
Right-click on the Bookmarks Toolbar and choose New Bookmark.
Paste the code into the Location box (the second box).
Then type a useful name in the Name box (e.g., AllRecipes) and click Add.
Now, when you want to hack the page, click the button to run the script.

Hi, Just switched from CS6 to PS CC. I am used to using ACR in CS6 with it's preview checkbox in the upper right-hand corner. I do not see that checkbox in PS CC. I see that they have added side-by-side, right and left and top and bottom before and after

Hi,
Just switched from CS6 to PS CC. I am very comfortable using ACR in previous versions. I liked to use the preview checkbox located in the upper right-hand corner to see before and afters. That checkbox is no longer in my version of PS CC. I see that they have side-by-side, top and bottom and right and left before and after options in the lower right-hand corner in this version. Is there anyway to get that legacy preview checkbox back so that I can use it?

Hi Warunicorn,
Thank you very much. I just could not find it on my own. I will have more questions as I get into it.
Jim

Can I print before and after on the same page?

Hi everyone.
I'm really proud of my editing on a particular image. I want to print the before and after on the same page, just like I can see the before and after side-by-side in the Develop mode.
Is this possible?
Thanks for your help.

Yes but you will need to make a virtual copy by going to the menu:
Photo >> Create Virtual Copy
Then open copy 2 in the Develop module and from the history panel change the setting to the time of import (usually the bottom of the list) or use the re-set button to get back to the original file from camera.
You can then select copy 1 & 2 and go to the Print module to set up your page with both images.

Elements 9 - Before and After Picture View?

I like working on photos when I can see the original picture on the left and the picture I'm editing on the right so I can 'see where I'm going' with my changes.
I'm currently trying out Elements 9.
When I work with the 'Guided' or 'Quick' Editing sections (right side) I have a drop down box that gives me the following options after the word View on the left side: 'Before Only', 'After Only', 'Before and After Horizonal', and 'Before and After Vertical'.
But when I go to the 'Full Edit' mode that drop down box disappears.
How do I get a Before and After Photo to show on the screen when I'm in 'Full Edit Mode'?
Thank you for your help.
TripleB

Simply use a duplicate layer or adjustment layer before starting your edits and then you can click the eye icon in the layers pallet.
You can click on and off to see before and after as you do more editing.

Split view for before and after changes?

One feature I used to use a lot on Lightroom as where it would show a split view showing the image before and after changes (adjustments). I cannot find how to do this in Aperture - is it possible, what is this feature called?
(and before any smart person tells me to look in help, I'm tired of responses like that. I've looked and didn't find, and that's why I'm asking here. I've tried Compare, and Before and After Changes etc.)

Unfortunately, no, there is no ability to do the split view like Lightroom has. It's a nice feature.
The closest you can do is to flip back and forth between two versions. Because when you view the master in aperture it shows the original file without crops and straightening, I suggest that once you crop and straighten, you then create a new version and work on that (this is as close as you can get to LR's "snapshot" functionality). You can then flip back and forth between the two versions to see the changes... but you can't see them side by side with a split.

Before and After View

When I'm in my Develop module and I look at some of my edited photos my before and after view is not showing. Sometime I see the original for a second then it resorts to the edited. Now this is happening to some of my collection cause in some collection they are working just fine. Can some explain to me what is happing.
thanks

That's not it. I'm not sure what your talking about or we are talking about two different things. All the files in the collection are before and after are the same this is evident on some other folder in the collection.
I think I figure out the problem
Go to the History located on the left side of your canvas, above the Copy and Paste buttons. You should see Preset, Snapshot, History and Collection. They should have a + beside to expand. Go to History (this is a list of all you edits you made on the image) Go to the bottom where it says import of the file. This is the start point of your file.
Right mouse click on the import xxxx xxxx file ( or how ever you saved your file name). Highlight "Copy History Step Settings to Before."
There you go your good to go
I don't know how to do this on all the images with this problem in the folder all at once. I just do it individually.

Before and after

In PSE 9 how can I see before and after
images in full edit mode?

I don't know how familiar you are with PS. So please apologize if my proposal may sound improper or confusing.
In PS there may be of course lots of "befores" and "afters". Therefore, I would recommend you to use the "History" panel enabling you to easily switch between different states of your editing procedure. Also within the History panel there should be a "Snapshot" feature (I know there is in PS - not sure if this is valid also for PSE) which makes it even easier to name and identify a "before" (or "after") state.
Some users prefer to create a duplicate of the original file first to avoid undesired changes and to be able to compare original and duplicate.
A 3rd option (which I use very often) is to just duplicate the background layer. You then simply apply your tweaks to the resulting "background copy" layer and can switch this layer "on" and "off" (just by clicking on the eye symbol) within the layer panel.
I hope that may be helpful. Please excuse if I misunderstood and you know all these features already.

Comparing pictures before and after adjustments

Dear all,
I'm about to switch from the Canon software DPP to Camera RAW.
In DPP it's possible to split the view in order to compare the same RAW picture with different adjustements. This possibility is very valuable to me.
Is it possible to split the view in Camera RAW ?
If not, how do you manage to compare the original picture to the one you obtain after having made your adjustments ?
Thank you for your answers,
Cédric

Each adjusment panel in ACR has a Preview box you can check or uncheck to view the adjustments you have made in that panel.
Alternatively, you can simply toggle the "p" key to see the difference in your image before and after the adjustments. But in either case, this before/after comparison is limired to the adjustments made only in the panel you are currently working in.
However, if you switch to the Presets panel and toggle the "p" key, this will show you the difference between the image as it was initially opened in ACR and after all adjustments made in all panels.

How to make an before and after effects?

So, I want to make a video that show the audience this is before and after the edit. And i want to make it look like this YouTube Rewind 2014: Behind the Scenes - YouTube
How to make it?
Thanks:)

Really? You take footage of you shooting the video with another camera then you edit it together with shots of the finished project. If you want to show before and after shots of an effect you just put the original footage on top and animate a mask or opacity to reveal the rendered effect below.
If you can't figure out how to make a before and after then you will have a very difficult time doing any effects using AE because there is absolutely nothing in this before and after but very basic editing and masking.
