Partial delete of copy of graphic on new layer sees source graphic vanish !

Deleting part of the graphic on an upper layer sees same artwork disappear on a lower layer.
Here is the procedure.
Artwork (properties..graphic) of a map border and symbols exists on a flash layer.
Select layer and go edit duplicate. Makes a stepped away copy.
Edit cut and make new layer over this one and go edit>paste, and make it also x0 y0. Now they superimpose.
Turn off vis on lower one and d/click the art still showing, drag select the symbols and delete. Leaves just map border. Return to scene_1.
Turn off vis for this and turn on the lower layer, and its artwork has also vanished !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Even tried selecting the first layers artwork, going edit copy, then make a layer above, ed paste, then delete the symbols leaving border, and still the art on the lower layer is zapped.
Why ?
How can I clone this artwork and remove the symbols from the one, and the border from the other ?

Copy/Paste Frames in New Layer Un-Synching from Guide

I recently upgraded to CS4 from Flash MX 2004, and I'm experiencing a problem with something I've literally been doing for years in Flash. What I do is copy/paste keyframed animation from one layer into a new empty layer. I then trim the animation as necessary, insert a new key frame, and repeat this action over many layers. In all my previous Flash version experience (think back to Flash 4 I've been doing this), the animation pastes perfectly into the new empty layer. This allows me to fill a street map of roads with arrows down a stretch of road that repeat perfectly over a 8 frame animation.
What's different is in CS4, once I paste in the animation into the new layer, it un-synchs from the motion guide. I then have to manually re-synch, or attach, it to the guide.
I need for this NOT to happen. Is there a setting or preference some where I am not seeing that prevents the un-synching from happening? I don't understand why CS4 would be different in this regard to the previous versions of Flash I've had experience with.
Thanks for your time.

A friend who has worked for me in Flash doing what I do and is now in school has informed me that guides in CS4 are no longer used, that they want you to use motion tweens instead, so the guides are difficult to use now, and as she put it "They found a better way to do motion so they want you to use the new way". She also informed me that this not the case in CS3, and that you can save your CS4 file as a CS3 file and use the guides normally without buggy behavior.
She also confirmed that what I do in Flash can't be done, or rather is just grossly ineffective and time consuming, with motion tweens.
If Adobe is reading this, I for one would sincerely appreciate it if you un-did the buggy behavior of guides, and reinstate the code in CS4 to allow us to continue using guides normally.
Thank you.

Copy to New Layer

Simple gray scale photo of kite in sky. The kite is not completely surrounded by sky, part of it is out of the shot. I want to make the sky flash the gray it is now to white(gif). I used the polygonal lasso tool to select the sky. I dont know how to copy it to a new layer so I can change the exposure and make one frame with the original layer showing, another with the exposed layer showing. After I select with the lasso, all the items under "layer" are grayed out including "new". I tried the new layer icon at the bottom of the palette but no go. The closest I have come is edit>copy but where to put it?
Also, if I lasso the kite, isnt it subjective which is the background and which is the foreground?
Anyway, thanks for any help!

Thanks for that Bob. Got it. But having trouble finishing project. Progress so far: Lassoed the kite. Layer via copy. Now in layers palette have a thumbnail with the sky I want and the outline of the kite still visible (background)and one with just the kite with checker board sky(Layer 1). image>adjustments>exposure, 5.20 exposure/+0.2400 offset, changing the dark gray sky to 'white'. Opened the animation palette and now have kite (layer 1) as first frame. Frame delay, tweening, duplicating frames to tweak the animation I can do but the one thing missing is a frame with the "original" photo in it so the animation will flit between dark gray sky and white sky. Im guessing animation frames come from layers of the photo being worked on. So I cant just use the original as the second frame because the focus, for lack of the right term, of the palettes shift to THAT photo when I open it. How do I get the kite with the dark gray sky into the animation?
Thank you ever so much!

Copying selection to new layer and changing hue/saturation?

I made a selection around someone's teeth and I copied it to a new layer.
1. On the new layer, using Hue/Saturation, what is the best way to remove some of the yellow in the teeth? I chose yellow from the drop-down, though I am doing something wrong because the teeth are not appearing more white.
2. Is it a better idea to do this as an adjustment layer instead of copying it to a different layer, or is it just a different way to do the same thing?
Thanks.

"If you create a new layer it is likely to create more additional data than the Mask of an Adjustment Layer."
1. What do you mean by additional data?
If you lift a part of an image onto a new layer that layer has as many channels as the image (3 for RGB, 4 for CMYK etc.) whereas an Adjsutment Layer has one channel (its Mask), so the file would increase in size more in the first case (unless it is a grayscale image or possibly if the layer has no detail etc.).
2. To get rid of yellow in the teeth, are you suggesting to slightly desaturate in the Masters and than a bit more in the yellows? So doing it to both?
Yes, but just try and see if it helps with your image.

How to copy a shape into same layer as original

In Elements 11 each time I copy a shape the pasted copy appears in a new layer. I would like to have the pasted copy stay in the same layer as the original shape. How do?

When you paste, it's always going to come in on a new layer, just merge them back together again afterwards, or use the shape selection tool to alt/option drag a shape with the add to shape button turned on. The shape selection tool is the gray arrow in the list of shape tools in the tool options.

Using content aware with a new layer

I am trying to use content aware with a new layer which i have made a smart object but when I select fill it is greyed out. why?.

CAF doesn't have a Sample all layers option, and needs source pixels to work on. The best you can do is select those parts of the background layer that you are happy to be sampled from, and copy them to a new layer and use CAF on that layer. This prevents gaps in the landscape being filled with a foregrounsd subject's head!
You can then add a layer mask to that layer to the new layer to use only those parts you need.

I can not delete or copy new files to my Iomega external hard drive

Hi,
I can not delete or copy new files to my Iomega external hard drive. Opening hard drive folder I can see that I can not overwrite it. I have heard that I need to install some program for the external hard drive to operate properly in Mac.
Please help what to install or there is some other option.
Thnx

I'm not the expert on this since I have never done it. It sounds like you may need a data rescue program like Data Rescue III. I believe you can download a demo and see if you can see the files. If you can, then you can buy the program and retrieve the files. I don't know if Disk Utility can restore them--I think they have to be visible but this is not something I have ever had to do.
In the meantime, don't do anything with the drive--you don't want to overwrite any files. Hopefully all or most of the files are still there and you will be able to retrieve them. The less the drive is used, the better your chances are of retrieving the data.
Forgive me for not realizing that there were files on the drive that you wanted to save. Upon re-reading your question, I now see that there were. I should have known to warn you, and my bad that I didn't.
Good luck!

Not sure what you mean by that: is that URL in an image, or is it actual text?
If it is in an image, then you need to extract the image, edit it with something like Photoshop, then add it back to the PDF.
If the URL is actual text, I suggest that you remove the entire URL, then add the corrected link.

Delete/display/copy attachments in the workflow

Hello,
I'm creating a workflow which contains a pdf attachment. This attachment is created or inserted with the start form.
During the workflow I want to delete the attachment and include a new one. Another thing I want to do is attach the pdf document to an other BOR object.
The thing what I have done so far but didn't work:
I created an activity which moves the attachment to a method so I could work or change the attachment. I know their is an automatic binding with the container '_Attach_Objects' but I couldn't see the contents in the executed method when I read it out on the way below
Here a part of the method to get the content of the '_Attach_Object' container.
BEGIN_METHOD DISPLAY_ATTACHMENT CHANGING CONTAINER.
DATA attach TYPE SWC_OBJECT OCCURS 0,
ZSWC_OBJECT TYPE TABLE OF SWC_OBJECT.
swc_get_table container '_ATTACH_OBJECTS' attach.
SWC_GET_TABLE CONTAINER 'ZSWC_OBJECT' ZSWC_OBJECT.
BREAK-POINT.
END_METHOD.
With the binding SWC_GET_TABLE I don't get the appropriate values in the container.
How do I get the contents of the container in the method so I could delete the attachment on a nice way or to copy the content to a new BOR Object?
Kind regards,
Richard Meijn

The reason why I want to change/delete the attachment is that I create a workflow for a signature registration. The signature is on the pdf form. The signature is checked by employees and if the signature is not correct the workflow goes back to requestor to give in a new pdf document.
The first pdf document has to be removed from the workflow and from the document storage. If the signature is correct I want to copy the attached document to a business object with a GOS object.
Kind regards,
Richard Meijn

How to move or copy a database to new server

Greetings All,
Oracle Enterprise 11g r2, on a Windows2008 platform.
I would appreciate some advice regarding moving/copying a database to a new server. Some of the information below may not be pertinent to my goal. Please be patient as I am a newbie.
I have installed oracle and created a database (prod03) on the new/target server. I created the same tablespaces (and datafiles/names) as are on the existing/source server (prod01), except that on the new/target server (prod03) there is 1 more data file for the USERS tablespace than there is on the existing/source server (prod01).
My initial thought was to perform a expdp full=y.
The database contains 220 schemas, when I performed an expdp full=y estimate only it indicated 220Gb. I think this would take much more time to export and then import than what I hope to be able to do below.
I would like to be able copy the datafiles from the source server prod01 server over to the target server prod03, some names/locations will change.
One scenario I found (http://www.dba-oracle.com/oracle_tips_db_copy.htm) was to backup the control file to trace on the old/source server (prod01). Copy everything to the new/target server. Tweak the file that creates the new control file.
Step 4 of the above mentioned link says to change
CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE "PROD01" NORESETLOGS to
CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE "PROD03" RESETLOGS
Notice the change from REUSE to SET. I am not sure if this is right for my situation.
Could I issue a backup control file to trace on the target server (prod03), add the reference to the additional datafile. Copy over all of the datafiles for all of the tablespaces (users,system/sysaux/undotbs1,temp),
Delete the existing control file, and generate the new control file.
Then perhaps issue a startup resetlogs or startup recover?
Thanks for your time,
Bob

So unless someone provides me with an rman script I can't use rman.google is your friend
Simply telling someone to get the experience dose not help. So your post is useless to me.I suppose you do not have experience with "old-school" manual cloning as well.
Import of entire 200GB DB with datapump or imp will also require some experience otherwise it will be a long-long exercise.
So, basically, any advise may be useless to you, because of your "the fact is I don't have the experience. Nor do I have the time to obtain the experience."

How do you copy & paste a shape that is part of a "combined shape" to a new layer?

How do you copy & paste a shape that is part of a "combined shape" to a new layer? For instance, I have a combined shape of 2 rectangles (not merged) and I want a copy of one of those rectangles as a new shape layer. I know I can duplicate the entire layer and delete the shape(s) I don't need - but I was wondering if there was an easier, more straightforward solution.

Many ways:
1st way
1.use Merge function from source to destination table where you can have this conditions like load when not matched and don't load when matched.
2. follow this ssis steps:
execute sql task where you can write merge function from source to destination
http://blog.sqlauthority.com/2008/08/28/sql-server-2008-introduction-to-merge-statement-one-statement-for-insert-update-delete/
2nd way:
oledb source 2.lookup outputlookup 3. oledb destination table
and you can mention in lookup as no match output.
3rd way:
you can use scd transformation task in ssis...
4th way:
you can use if exists update if not exists insert.. see below

Copy file names into New Mail Message?

*I've been slowly teaching myself Applescript, and can't seem to find a way to do a few things. Basically what I'm trying to do is set up a script that will run when items are dropped into a folder on my FTP. I want the script to have a pop-up dialogue, and generate an email to certain users announcing new files are on the FTP. I have these 2 parts down, but I would also like the body of the email to include a list of the filenames. This part I can't figure out.*
*I just need to find a function that will copy the filenames of new items, and paste them into the body of the email already being generated. My current code is below. Anyone have any ideas to help me expand?*
