Photoshop CS5, animated gif, how to add url to 1 frame.

I have created an animated gif in Photoshop CS5 and want to embed a url to one of the 3 frames.
How do I do this?
I've read that I can use the slice tool to do this (?), but if so, I need help in laymans language as to how to do this.
The animated gif is for a website on a wordpress platform. When this particular frame is clicked, it should link to the url which I want to add.
Please help!
Thank you.

Whoops, sorry put this in the lightroom forum by mistake. Will post it in the PS CS5.

Animated gifs: How to transition (fade) 1 image over another

Fireworks noob, trying to make an animated gif in CS4, reading/experimenting for hours, searching FW help documentation, Youtube tutes, Google - can't find how to pull off this basic fade.
6 unique but same sz. jpgs in my .png (default FW worksheet doc), each a different "state" in the states palette. Got the basic timing down, all 6 pop up one after another, but I want transitions - #1 fades into #2, 2 into 3 etc. - possibly 3-4 step fade.
How?
Where are the other transitions/effects hidden?
Doesn't FW have some kind of animation timeline feature where you can click through frame by frame?
Ready to go back to Gifbuilder...
TIA!

Gif animations are for poster-like images. They don't work successfully with JPEGs because the file size ends up enormously large. The best program to use for whast you want to do is Flash. That said, Fireworks has an animation wizard that will fade images for you. Select an image and choose Modify > Symbol > Convert to Symbol. A dialog box will pop up enabling you to choose which type of symbol you wish to create. Choose Animation. From there, just follow the wizard. To fade one image over the other, you'll need to convert the images to symbols and animate them on different states (frames). Symbol 1 on state 1. Symbol 2 on state 10. Symbol 3 on state 20, for example.

How to add url to a png file in fireworks?

I am making a web banner that is 728X90. I want to add a url to the banner so that when you click on it, no matter what state it is on, the link will take you to the website? I just started using fireworks 3 days ago. Please explain in the simplest of terms how to add the url to the banner.
Also when I drag the file to a new window in Chrome to preview it some of the elements are resized and out of place. How can I fix this?

Here is a link to the file.
file:///C:/Users/ACIJ/Pictures/Working%20Product.swf
See how the words are going off of the banner. In Fireworks its fine. The words all fit but when it shows up in the browser it does not fit.

ImageReady...creating animated GIF, how do you change save settings?

I cant find an ImageReady forum, hope this will do for now...
Its been forever since I have used ImageReady and Im rusty again! I just created an animated GIF but want to lower the file size of it a little after it saves everything to GIF. Currently, the GIF is a little larger than I care for in filesize. Where are the settings to lower the quality and everything else for this?

Image Ready was discontinued with CS2? There are other ways to animate now, but just not in image ready, and it is not as easy.

CS5 AI. How to add accented text character in windows

I am trying to get the accented (acute/forward) characters for a, e, i, o, u. (and their capital versions) in illustrator CS5 (Windows 7). I do not want to use the Glyphs - impractical. Neither do I want to use the windows character box or Alt xxxx codes.
Accented characters are part of normal text - for all but English speakers
All my other programs (MS OFfice, CAD etc) allow me to use AltGr key + letter (AltGr = right alt = Ctrl+Alt). This is also the case for Photoshop CS5 but not Illustrator.
In windows control panel I have changed languages (e.g. English, Spanish) and keyboards (e.g. US-international). No difference. As soon as I press AltGr key, I move into Group Selection mode. I have deleted all Illustrator shortcuts that include Ctrl + Alt - still no use.
I have tried previous suggestions in this and similar forums
Is there any simple way to resolve this. I have put up with this since CS1 but I thought it was fixed. Now it seems not - AI is to remain English speaking only (?)

My normal setup is English UK language with English UK keyboard.
I am not sure I understand your comment "Accents on a tertiary modifier such as AltGr is rather unusual..." and I am not clear about primary keys and secondary modifiers but from my experience...
AltGr (or Ctrl + Alt) + vowel will give accented (forward) vowel in any package that I use - for example Microsoft Word, Excel, OneNote, Firefox, Paint Shop Pro, TurboCad etc - and many more. It is a standard in windows and has been for years. Even Photoshop follows it. But not Illustrator.
In trying to get it to work in Illustrator I have tried every reasonable combination of keyboards (e.g. US-international, Spanish) and languages (e.g. French, Spanish etc) as well as English
I'd happily work with any two-key / three - key shortcut I could set up in Illustrator.

Animated Gif - Save for web not showing full frame range

Hey,
I'm trying to export an animated gif with 52 frames - I'm using the timeline in CS6, it's exported correctly in the past but when I try and save for web only a seemingly arbitrary number of rames appear in the animation. With no clear route to rectify this, I've tried to affect the outcome by simply moving things around on the timeline.
I've had a variety of frame ranges (and frames) numbering between 2 and 6 frames, far off my 52 target. It's a simple image and equally simple transition to keep filesize down but I'm completely bamboozled by this. It looks like a bug but any advice I could get would be much appreciated.

If it worked in the past with CS6 try resetting your CS6 Photoshop Preferences. If you still have the problem after that. Up load the PSD file to a server and post a link to it.

Photoshop CS5.1 on 15" Macbook Pro (File opening/Application Frame problem)

I have seemed to narrow the problem to my preferences file but cannot figure out why.
I installed a clean, fresh version on my Mac. (No previous versions were ever installed).
When I open Photoshop for the first time, everything runs fine: I can open files and edit as usual.
As soon as I close it and re-open many things happen:
a) I can go to open a file, but with Window>Application Frame unchecked, I cannot see the open file.
b) All other palletes go awry. I cannot change the open palletes and or edit anything.
c) If I check Window>Application Frame, everything is back to normal. No problems here.
So, what is going on? Anyone else having this problem?

I get this same issue with PS CS5.1 a recently purchased 15" Macbook Pro
In PS5.1 use File/Open to open an image file but image doesn't appear (histogram and other properies dialogs show the right info, though),
switching to Application Frame mode makes the photo appear,
trying to switch back out of App Frame mode locks PS5 up (ie nothing displays & have to Quit and restart via the Dock icon).
For me this issue only happens when my secondary display in NOT connected. If the 2nd display is hooked up everything shows up normally. Doesn't seem to matter about the power profile (ie running on battery or not) and not affected by various background apps, devices hooked up (eg backup drive, USB mouse. All Mac & CS5.5 software updates have been applied to date.

How to add URLs in apage without using edit mode

Hello everybody.
We have Portal 9.0.4.1 under Solaris, and we are just beggining using it :-)
We created a section for links (to urls) in the home page of each user. We would like our users to add links to their most used pages (for example, metalink.oracle.com), but we do not want them to enter in edit mode, we would like some functionallity like the "add portlet" in the customize option.
Any help will be very apreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Lisandro

The example is generic and not hardcoded to any region on the page ... but has the same "warning" that Mark mentioned about this example not working in future versions if Oracle changes the URL structure:
The Add Item example shows how to create a new item type ...adding an item of this type to any region allows you to add content to that region
The Edit Item example show how to show a edit link or icon next to the item in view mode.
Add Item
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This code sample shows how to create an item allows the content contributor to add items to the page group/page/region that the sample item is placed in.
If you want your content contributor to add items to multiple regions on a page, add the sample item to all regions that you wish to expose this functionality in.
Step 1: Create a PL/SQL procedure
Create the following procedure:
Create or Replace Procedure <schema>.ADDITEM_URL
p_itemid IN VARCHAR2,
p_pageid IN VARCHAR2,
p_siteid IN VARCHAR2)
as
v_url varchar2(2000);
v_region varchar2(2000);
v_looplink varchar2(2000);
v_host varchar2(2000);
begin
select folder_region_id into v_region
from portal.wwsbr_all_items
where id = p_itemid and
caid = p_siteid;
if instr(portal.wwctx_api.get_host, ':') = 0 then
v_host := portal.wwctx_api.get_host;
else
v_host := substr(portal.wwctx_api.get_host,
1,
(instr(portal.wwctx_api.get_host, ':')-1))
|| '%3A'
|| substr(portal.wwctx_api.get_host,
(instr(portal.wwctx_api.get_host, ':')+1));
end if;
v_looplink := 'http%3A%2F%2F'
|| v_host
|| '%2Fportal%2Fpage%3F_pageid%3D'
|| p_siteid
|| '%2C'
|| p_pageid
|| '%26_dad%3D'
|| portal.wwctx_api.get_dad_name
|| '%26_schema%3D'
|| portal.wwctx_api.get_product_schema
|| '&p_containerpageid='
|| p_pageid;
v_url := portal.wwctx_api.get_base_url
|| 'portal.wwv_additem.selectitemtype?'
|| 'p_cornerid=' || p_pageid
|| '&p_siteid=' || p_siteid
|| '&p_regionid=' || v_region
|| '&p_looplink=' || v_looplink;
htp.p('<a href="' || v_url || "><img src="/images/additem.gif"</a>');
exception
when others then
htp.p('error');
end;
Once the procedure has been created, grant EXECUTE permission to PUBLIC.
Step 2: Create a custom item type
This custom item type will be associated with the PL/SQL procedure created above. Placing an item of this type on a page will give the content contributor something to click on while the page is in view mode to call the add item wizard.
Go to the Procedures tab of the new item type and associate with PL/SQL procedure.
Ensure the âDisplay Procedure Results With Itemâ checkbox is checked.
Step 3: Add item of type âAdd_Itemâ to a page.
1.     Configure the Page Group to allow items of your new type to be added
2.     Add an item of type âadd_itemâ to your page.
3.     For the region containing your new item, in the properties, ensure the âAssociated Functionsâ attribute is in the Displayed Attributes list.
Edit Item
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This code sample draws an Edit icon for content contributors to click on while the page is in view mode to edit the item with the default Edit Item wizard.
Step 1: Create a PL/SQL procedure
Create or Replace Procedure <schema>.EDITITEM_URL
p_itemid IN VARCHAR2,
p_pageid IN VARCHAR2,
p_siteid IN VARCHAR2)
as
v_looplink varchar2(2000);
v_url varchar2(2000);
v_subtype varchar2(2000);
v_itemtype varchar2(2000);
v_catid varchar2(2000);
v_catcaid varchar2(2000);
v_parentid varchar2(2000);
v_host varchar2(2000);
begin
select subtype
,itemtype
,category_id
,category_caid
,parent_item_id
into v_subtype
,v_itemtype
,v_catid
,v_catcaid
,v_parentid
from portal.wwsbr_all_items
where id = p_itemid and
caid = p_siteid;
if instr(portal.wwctx_api.get_host, ':') = 0 then
v_host := portal.wwctx_api.get_host;
else
v_host := substr(portal.wwctx_api.get_host,
1,
(instr(portal.wwctx_api.get_host, ':')-1))
|| '%3A'
|| substr(portal.wwctx_api.get_host,
(instr(portal.wwctx_api.get_host, ':')+1));
end if;
v_looplink := 'http%3A%2F%2F'
|| v_host
|| '%2Fportal%2Fpage%3F_pageid%3D'
|| p_siteid
|| '%2C'
|| p_pageid
|| '%26_dad%3D'
|| portal.wwctx_api.get_dad_name
|| '%26_schema%3D'
|| portal.wwctx_api.get_product_schema
|| '&p_containerpageid='
|| p_pageid;
v_url := portal.wwctx_api.get_base_url
|| 'portal.wwv_edit_tab.edititem?'
|| 'p_thingid=' || p_itemid
|| '&p_cornerid=' || p_pageid
|| '&p_siteid=' || p_siteid
|| '&p_subtype=' || v_subtype
|| '&p_itemtype=' || v_itemtype
|| '&p_topicid=' || v_catid
|| '&p_topicsiteid=' || v_catcaid
|| '&p_cornerlinkid='
|| '&p_parentid=' || v_parentid
|| '&p_action=update'
|| '&p_currcornerid=' || p_pageid
|| '&p_language='
|| portal.wwctx_api.get_nls_language
|| '&p_looplink=' || v_looplink;
htp.p('<a href="' || v_url || "><img src="/images/ed-item.gif"</a>');
exception
when others then
null;
end;
Step 2: Associate Procedure with Item Types
For every item type that you wish to supply an edit icon to show while the page is in view mode, call the EDITITEM_URL procedure created in the step above.
Step 3: Show Associated Function attribute
In order for the procedure associated with the item type to execute, you must ensure the region properties are set on the Style/Attributes tab have the Associated Function listed as one of the Displayed Attributes.

Photoshop CS5 animation option: render issues

Hey there,
I'm working on a stop motion animation (made with photos only) for class with added drawn on animations. It's been working out fine until now. Since the animation is long, I cut everything into short sequences so I know length is not an issue. Here's what's wrong: I've arrived to a part where the drawn part of the animation gets more important and therefore more detailed. The animated sequence when played with CS5 looks fine, more or less fluid, maybe a little laggy but it looks good. The problem is, when I export > render video (I choose AVI and it's been working fine), the end result is disastrous and looks nothing like what was played in photoshop. Originally the viewer should see a mass turning into a girl who then turns around and it looks good in the program but on the rendered video the shapes sort of leak into each other and don't evolve properly (it's difficult to explain).
I tried working on different computers, making the image neater (the resolution is high which might explain the lagginess but the not the horrible end result), changing the fps,... I'm out of ideas and the deadline is approaching and I'm completely stuck at the most important part of the animation!
Please help, I'm considering doing this manually with movie maker which is just... no good.
Any help welcomed, I'm desperate.
Thanks.

Hey Yukanegishi
Try using Adobe Premiere when making animations.
Its so easy, to use and very good results.
The only thing i manage to do was in the sister program to adobe and that was a .GIF picture that lagged horrible

How to add URLs and/or bookmarks to a new toolbar

I can create a new toolbar and drag buttons from/to the 'Customize Toolbar' dialog, and that new toolbar will be visible.
But I want to use that new toolbar for extra favorite URLs and/or bookmarks. That does not seem to be allowed.
I _can_ drag the 'Bookmark toolbar items' icon from the Bookmarks toolbar, but that does not solve my problem, now does it?

There is one "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" container available for storing bookmarks, and that is where bookmarks are placed if you want them on a Toolbar. I have never seen an add-on that changes that by adding a 2nd "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" container.
I understand that you want to reduce the toolbar area at the top of the browser window, because I have been doing that for almost as long as I have been using Firefox ''(since 2002 when it was called Phoenix)''. The first thing I do is to get rid of or '''reduce the Menu Bar down to one button''' using one of the various Compact Menu extensions that have been available over the years. This is the one I currently use.<br />
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/compact-menu-2/ <br />
This extension hides the Menu Bar and places a button on the left side of the Navigation Bar upon installation. Click that blue globe button or hit the '''''Alt''''' key and the the Menubar Items appear in a drop-down menu. You can even drag that small button into the [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+customize+the+toolbar Customize Palette] and use the '''''Alt''''' key to open the Menubar Items drop-down. <br />Hidden from view, but easily accessible when you need to use a Menubar Item.

Photoshop CS5 Animation Help

I'm currently working on a banner design in which certain animation components need only to loop one time while other components need to loop forever. Is there a way that I can choose specific layers to loop once and choose others to loop forever within the same animation scheme?

Of course GIF can save animations with multiple Frames which are represented by multiple layers in the document. I don't think PNG can do animation at all, however.
Have you tried altering the amount of RAM you have allocated to Photoshop in the Edit - Preferences - Performance menu?

[Photoshop CS6] Windows 7 - How to add "Brush Angle" circle to Brush Preset

How do I add this:
To here:
Thanks.

Reset your Brushes so you just have the default set loaded.
Set up a new brush using the Brush Presets panel. (Probably set Angle Jitter to 'Pen Tilt' but we don't know exactly what you are trying to achieve.)
Open the brushes panel, and click on the little cog icon, and then on New Brush preset. Give your new brush a meaningful name.
Last thing to do is 'Save brushes' in the same menu, and you new preset will always load with the default brush set. Or save it with a custom brush set. Whatever works best for you.

How to add URL links in XML file?

Hi,
I'm having problem with adding the URL links to the flash output. I'm using the XML file to call images and then the corrsponding links. Images are called correctly but when I try to add a link I'm not getting the links, but instead getting the HTML anchor tags as texts. I'm using the XML escape characters to escape the HTML tags but the results are not what I need.
I'm using the following code:
<thumbnail preview="large.jpg" thumb="thumb.jpg">
<title><![CDATA[Finance Services]]></title>
<discription><![CDATA[<a href="http://www.google.ca">Google</a>]]></discription>
</thumbnail>
Output:
Images are displayed correctly, but instead of getting the links, I'm getting following text message:
<a href="http://www.google.ca">Google</a>
I need to find out what I'm doing wrong. Am I using the correct way to add the links or not?
Thanks for your time.

I'm using following code for the Description part, where I need to place the HTML tags:
var _discription:TextField = previewHolder.discriptionText.discriptionText;
_discription.htmlText = _xml.thumbnails.thumbnail[photoNum].discription.toString()
I'm using the htmlText, I tried replacing htmlText with tf.htmlText, but it didn't work. I'm importing the text field using import flash.text.TextField; do I need to import something for HTML tags to work?
