Once more on pixel polly [ the cross-hair]

I see a green crosshair when I use pixel polly from CycoreFX.
I'm running AE 5.5 trial (I have both CS4 and CS5 paid versions), I don't recall seeing this green crosshair visible on the timeline where I've used pixel-polly effect
You can see it in the image. It dissappears if I click the FX button on the layer, so I know it is being produced by that effect.
I want to know if this is normal? ... I haven't used pixel polly for a good long while but don't recall seeing this before.
Perhaps it is only the CycoreFX download version that displays it?
But it seems a bit perculiar to stick in something that doesn't seem to be consistent with the effect.
I tried zeroing each setting in turn to see if it would go away but does not seem to be effected by any of the settings, unless something I haven't noticed to test yet.
This image was grabbed (in the comp window) just a frame or two into a pixel polly type explossion. Note the green cross-hair type lines. And that they are not quite perpendicular.

As Rick says, you've downloaded CycoreFX HD, which must be purchased to eliminate the demo watermark. When you purchase After Effects the versions of Cycore FX that are included are automatically licensed and will not have a watermark.
Take note that After Effects CS6, available in the next few months, will include the full Cycore FX HD bundle. So now is not a good time to buy Cycore FX.

My CS6 liquify tool won't let me use the warp tool. I only have the cross hair.

The liquify tool in my CS6 only has cross hair and won't let me use the tool like it's supposed to. How do I fix that?

Er, Audition doesn't have a liquify tool. Dunno which CS6 app does, but that's the forum you should post on.

I using windows seven for Photoshop and when I use the spot healing brush or the brush tool I get a cross hair and not the circle ?

How do I fix this issue? some time it works and the other times I get the cross hair

I know this post doesn't really help you guys, but I'm also using PSE9 on a Win7 Intel Quad Core Dell computer and the spot healing brush works fine. I only offer this post to indicate that it apparently is not a universal bug in PSE9. Perhaps an Adobe expert can jump in here and help. I can only offer that in Preferences I do have the RAM dialed up to 80%, but I don't think this is related to your problem.

Cross Hairs Vanish in White Balance Loupe

If I click on the eyedropper under the White Balance option, the loupe appears on the screen with the white cross hairs in the center (along with RGB values). If I move to an area that forces the loupe to rotate (ie upper right corner of the image), the cross hairs and RGB values vanish, making it impossible to accurately select a neutral gray.

Yes, its a better loupe, but it has the same problem as the other one.
Sometimes it also loses the RGB information, although the conditions that make it happen are unclear. When it happens it also affects the RGB info below the histogram in the adjustment pane. Leaving the loupe does not bring it back. The loupe can cause the problem, but also zooming in.
Some images seem more prone to lose it than others. These images also have a problem with the accuracy of the loupe/pointer. The color information that is returned is for pixels at an offset from the pointer. If it gets too irritating I will crop the image by 1 pixel on all sides, which often helps.
I found that switching the viewer to another image and back again will restore the RGB info for a while.

Cross Hairs only on Burn Tool and other Brushes (Elements 8)

Today I sat down to continue work of files I created in Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks a short time ago. As part of the process I often use tools such as dodge, burn, healing brush, stamp tool etc. For some reason the size of the indicator is always the cross hair and bulls eye you normally get when you select a brush size that is very small. (small pixel amount) It doesn't matter what size you select to work with, the same indicator appears. I am used to working with a circle indicating how much of the image will be affected. Without this you have no idea what the scope of your corrections will be. I don't remember making any changes that would cause this problem. Can anyone help?

Everyone does, because everyone does it.

Remove extra scrap graphics attached to cross hair...

Hi,
Outside of my movie clip, quite a distance away is a cross hair, and attached to it, apparently, are some graphical scraps that I do not need. I cannot see them visually in the file, but when I publish the movie, they appear!
Can't seem to get a hold of the cross hair thing to delete it. Please advise, thanks!

One way you might be able to isolate the scraps is to select each frame in the movieclip (one at a time might be easiest), and using the shift key and mouse gradually deselect anything you know you want to keep. When you're done, you might eventually find the culprits as the last items selected and can delete them.
Don't save the file again until you are sure you have deleted only what you intend to. If you find you deleted more than that when you test the file, close it without saving and reopen to try again.

Remove white outline on cross hair cursor?

Hi,
In Photoshop CS6 Adobe has added a white outline to the cross hair cursor (when for example using the Marquee and pen tool) making it a lot less precise than before when you want to hit exact pixels. Is there a way to remove this?
Thanks in advance!

No, I don't think so. Your workaround is to zoom in so those pixels are bigger.

10.5.7 and disappearing cross hair cursor (using command+shift+4)

I just upgraded to 10.5.7 and noticed that when using the commandshift4 keystroke to do a screen grab, the cross-hair cursor disappears when moving the mouse around. If I slowly move the mouse across the screen, the cross-hair cursor flickers. This behavior happens on both my desktop and laptop.
Is anyone else experiencing this?

We used to be able to sort by multiple columns/rows at once by right clicking on the header and choosing show more options-how do we do that in the new Numbers?

We used to be able to sort by multiple columns/rows at once by right clicking on the header and choosing show more options-how do we do that in the new Numbers? It doesn't appear anywhere. Do I now have to sort massive tables by each column one at a time now? Also there used to be an easier way to merge/unmerge cells without me having to go to the table menu each time. Am I missing something?

Multiple column sort is a missing feature in the new version. Hopefully soon to return. You can do a multicolumn sort by sorting one at a time in reverse order of importance.
For merging and unmerging cells, I select the cells and right click to bring up the contextual menu. Merge and unmerge are on the menu. You could also create keyboard shortcuts for Merge Cells and Unmerge Cells in the Table menu.

Just restored to 3. Because once more I lost all my ReminderFox data during the upgrade. Not listed under tools . note to say not compatible with version 9. When will it be OK to upgrade to version 9 AND keep reminderfox intact?

Firstly, what do I have to do so that, when I upgrade FireFox, there is a restore point set? Do this manually? If so, alter your install procedure - a message to say - set a restore point now, because it won't be set automatically.
once more, after upgrading, my ReminderFox is gone. How can you do this? Offer something so good that becomes so important and then we lose it when we upgrade. I have installed 3.6 and my reminders are back! PLEASE let us know when you are releasing an upgrade that is compatible with ReminderFox

How to use the Cross Reference fields in P4P

I have been receiving questions related to the Cross Reference section from many different customers and partners. This post represents my attempt to describe the Cross Reference Section and the Equivalent Numbers stored within.
Identity
A term that Kelly uses and I will borrow is “identity”. A given specification can have many identities. The basic identity is the specification number generated by GSM. This is useful during early stages of design. Once we get past a draft or development status in the workflow the organization quickly wants to identify the specification in other ways. Examples include:
Execution System Number: Operations and Supply Chain quickly need to formalize an item or material for forecasting, inventory and purchasing…
Custom Numbering Conventions: Sometimes an organization has very specific custom logic for identifying materials. Usually terms like smart numbering are used to describe their methods.
Data Migration Identifier: In some cases customers have extensive data clean up projects. As part of the effort systems and processes are developed and an identity is created. In my experience we loaded a “Base Stock” number to represent Packaging Materials. The label stock that was commonly used was historically not represented so we created a number as part of the migration project.
Identity Functionality:
The Fields: The four major fields that make up the Cross Reference section are as follows:
>>System Name: This field describes the system generating the identifier. Examples I like to use are Oracle EBS or SAP Material Master. Sometimes geography must also be concatenated to the system, i.e. Oracle EBS – NA. This occurs when the customer is a large multinational where multiple ERP implementations exist. Therefore the same material may be known by many different numbers, i.e. Oracle EBS – NA = 77432, Oracle EBS – EU = 88883.
>>System Code: The system code is merely the syntax used during integration. Using CSS or various APIs you may chose to identify the system using an abbreviation, EBSNA or SAPMM.
>>Equivalent: The value representing the identity within a given system.
>>Externally Managed: If you are using CSS or an API to receive Cross Reference data you can define the field as "Externally Manged". When a cross reference is marked in this manner the general user community will not be able to edit the field. Administrators associated with the role [Externally_Managed_Cross_Ref_Admin] can edit the field if needed.
Syndication: While some users enter equivalent numbers manually, others use integration tools to generate and transmit identities. If a given cross reference is marked as “Externally Managed” then users are unable to manually enter data. On initial syndication the specification will not have a given equivalent. The specification is sent to middleware, a number is generated by the appropriate system and the response is sent back to GSM to add the System Code to the specification with the appropriate identity value.
Copy verses Issue:
>>Copy: When a user copies a specification the Cross Reference data is NOT included. Since the identities refer to the originating specification it does not make sense to carry over to the copy. If we did then users would quickly need to delete the data.
>>Issue: When a user issues a specification it maintains the Cross Reference data. This is an important concept because it is expected that a system like GSM will have many issues related to a single ERP #. ERP systems are usually not interested in many of the fields stored in the Product Data Management system.
Reference: As raw materials are consumed as inputs into Formulation or Trade Specifications the organization may come to identify the materials based on equivalent numbers. Therefore GSM allows for an equivalent number to appear next to the GSM number.
Implementation Issue: Ingredients In Packaged Quantities
Some customers run into a situation where the ingredient specification does not represent a packaged quantity. From an R&D perspective the developer does not care if the material comes in a box or a tanker. In this situation the GSM ingredient may be represented in the ERP system by many items and therefore more than one cross reference value. These items represent packaging differences that are important to purchasing, manufacturing, warehousing, and other execution systems.
I hope this helps describe some of the purposes and implementation issues around the Cross Reference field.

You need to get jmf.jar in your CLASSPATH, either on the command line, in an environment variable, by putting a symlink in $JAVA_HOME/lib/ext, whatever works for you. Have you done that? Once it's in the classpath, you can run jmstudio from any directory with the command "java JMStudio".
Items in the bin directory are just shell scripts, run with "sh jmstudio" or whatever suits your shell (on Mac OS X, copy one of these guys and append ".command" to the filename to make him double-clickable in the Finder).

Cursors turn into cross-hairs sometimes.

I have Adobe Photoshop CS4. My pen tool and paint brush tool cursors turn into hard-to-see cross-hairs sometimes. It makes my work more difficult and strains my eyes and give me a headache. How does it do that in the first place and how do I fix it?

I had no idea what was doing it! Give yourself a cookie or something for me!

Cross Reference Sources appearing in Story Editor view but not appearing in the Cross Ref pane

I have imported a Word document containing working cross references into an InDesign document. The vast majority of these cross references import correctly and link to their destinations within the document, however there are some that are not working. If I view the text frame in the story editor view, I can see these "broken" cross reference sources that came in from the Word doc but on selecting them I can see that there isnt a corresponding entry for it in the cross reference pane. As said, there are only a few that are behaving like this.
What could be causing these not to appear in the cross reference pane?
Obviously as they are not appearing in the list of cross references I can't update them, and also, as they are technically broken cross references, because a source exists for them but there is no corresponding entry in the pane, then on export to epub, InDesign crashes (If there is one broken cross reference in a document, export to Epub will crash indesign).
Also, to clarify, in the Word doc if I navigate to a cross reference that is failing once in InDesign, I can update it properly, and also navigate to its destination in the Word doc, so it's not as though these cross references are broken before coming into InDesign. Also I believe the destinations for these "broken" cross references are coming across properly to indesign too as I can see them in the story editor view.
Supposed Cross Reference source selected in Story Editor view on left, but no corresponding cross reference highlighted in pane on right:
Technical Details:
InDesign CS5.5 - Version 7.5.3
Microsoft Word 2010, File type .docx

I have found the possible cause of this problem!
If a table is used within the Word document somewhere between where the cross reference source is and its destination then that particular cross reference will be broken as described above in my initial post.
So the "fix" is to remove any occurances of a table in the Word document and the cross references come into InDesign perfectly. This is actually not a fix at all. I need to use tables in the Word document for layout purposes so if they break cross references if they stand between them and their destinations then I have to compromise, i.e. use tables but with no cross references in the document or vice versa.
I found a similar issue recently with index markers in Word causing a shift on the cross reference tags when bought into InDesign. The "fix" again for that was to remove all index markers from the Word document. See post about this here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1043981
InDesign really needs to sort out the issues with importing of Word documents with cross references in them. If I can't use index markers and tables in a Word document without breaking its cross references then they can't claim to have the ability to import a Word document while maintaining its cross references into an InDesign document. It just doesnt work as ive painstakingly proven.

Is there a dark-red pixel in the middle of my ipad 2 screen, Apple Staff ignored it with rude manner.

Is there a dark-red pixel in the middle of my ipad 2 screen, I 've just it for 6 days. After that I went the store (Thailand) to turn it, they told me that it's a dead pixel and Apple won't replace it to the new one - there must be more than 3 to claim. How can I do?
The store guy told me I should go Apple Service Center. The Center's staff kept my ipad and told that replacement depends on Regional office at Singapore.
She also blame me that "Why don't you look for dead pixel before you brought?"
What !!! Dead Pixel is the fault of Apple Factory, but she said like I'm so stupid to brought a dead-pixel ipad.
"If you want me to do something on your case call to Singapore by yourself" she said.
After I called to Singapore, I found myself the staff there treated me so bad and confuse.
1. The first guy at Singapore said "Because you 've just brought it for 6 week you can choose between replacement or refund, but leave me your numbers we will call you back."
2. Shortly, a rude guy called me - said to me about Bright and Dead Pixel - then said "It's not our authority to replace ipad for you, you paid your money for our dealer (Store in Thailand), so you must ask for resposibility from them. "
What !!!!! He treated me like I'm not a customer. Store and Care Center in Thailand told me it ups to Singapore, but Singapore told me not.
Who lied? However, I'm still Apple Customer. Whatever country I brought it, I paid for Apple product. Where are thier responsibilities?
I hope, Apple U.S. is my last resort.

Given that you can return/exchange it for any reason within the 14-day window after you bought it, you shouldn't have any problems.
Do you live near an Apple retail store? That may be your best bet. It certainly worked for me: I ordered mine online and when I noticed an air bubble embedded in the glass, I brought it to my local Apple Store and 15 minutes later walked out with a replacement. No fuss whatsoever.

Ssrs 2008 r2, select more or more or none of the above values

In an an existing SSRS 2008 r2 report, I want to have a parameter called @hair where the user
can see if the customer purchased one of the following items:
1. hair spray,
2. hair shampoo,
3. Hair color,
4. hair conditioner, or
5. No hair product purchased.
The table is called inventory and the values for the field called hairproduct are
1. hair spray = 'HR',
2. hair shampoo = 'HS',
3. hair color = 'HC',
4. Hair conditionier = 'HD',
5. If hair product is not purchased hairproduct value is null. This is due to
    the inventory table contains columns like hairproduct, eyeproduct, faceproduct. If a
    particular product is purchased, the column will contain a value. If a customer purchases
    all 4 hair products and 3 eyeproducts, and 9 faceproducts, the inventory table will contain
    16 columns for a particualr customer.
In the parameter window, I can use the following to have the correct values be displayed in the
selection window:
SELECT DISTINCT IsNull(inventory.hairproduct,'') as hairid,
CASE IsNull(inventory.hairproduct,'')
WHEN 'HR' then 'hair spray'
WHEN 'HS' then 'hair shampoo'
WHEN 'HC' then 'Hair color'
WHEN 'HC' then 'hair conditioner'
WHEN '' then 'No hair product purchased'
FROM Inventory
**Note the @hairproduct parameter allows blank values and allows multiple values.
However in the main query for the ssrs 2008 r2 report, I am not certain how I would change the following statement to select 'No hair product purchased'.
The current select statement looks like the following:
select customer_id,hairproduct
from inventory where customer_id = @customerid
hairproduct in (@hairproduct).
Basically I need to change the main query, dataset that matches the parameter @hairproduct, or possibly add a new parameter that means 'No hair product purchased' to report on the customer that has one or more hair products purchased or none.
Thus can you tell me and/or show me sql that will solve my problem?

Hi there,
Can you modify the no hair product purchased to a special code? Eg. NP.
Then something like this may work (though it may be a bit slow)
select customer_id,hairproduct
from inventory where customer_id = @customerid and
(hairproduct
in (@hairproduct) and (patindex(@hairproduct,'%NP%') = 0)
OR ( (patindex(@hairproduct,'%NP%')
> 0)  and customerid not in (select customerid from inventory where
customer_id = @customerid where hairproduct is not null)
cheers,
Andrew
