Photoshop CS5 - Control and navigate the cursor position automatically

Hello
I wonder if it’s possible with Photoshop CS5 (OS: Win7) to control and navigate the cursor position automatically?
Given: I have individual image coordinates for a set of locations.
Wanted: A possibility to position the cursor sequentially at those image location by the means of an external script or procedure.
Any ideas if that is possible with CS5?
Thanks for any help.
Lars

As far as I can tell with regard to a Photoshop Scripting approach: No.
Creating a Selection of certain dimensions and a certain position would be possible, though.
What exactly are you trying to achieve?

Changing the cursor position

Is it possible to change the cursor position automatically when changing the language?
For example: when changing from English to Hebrew the cursor will move from the right end to the left?
Thanks,
Amnon

I don't think this is possible in general, although some individual apps might do it. Normally you use a direction control from an app menu or at the system level.

Can I control the cursor position

I'd like to confine the cursors position to a grid when it's within a particular panel. I tried public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e)
int x = (int) (GRIDSIZE*java.lang.Math.round(e.getX()/(1.0*GRIDSIZE)));
int y = (int) (GRIDSIZE*java.lang.Math.round(e.getY()/(1.0*GRIDSIZE)));
e.translatePoint(x,y);
} But that didn't work. Can it be done?

I'm not exactly sure what you want to be done, but, if you want to control the mouse position, you can create a Robot object (check the class in the java docs) and use robot.mouseMove(mouseX,mouseY) where mouseX and mouseY are integers. THIS ONLY WORKS IN APPLICATIONS THOUGH. its too powerful to be able to control a persons mouse, (and keyboard is controllable too with Robot), you can imageine what a person could do lol.. Anyway, you could repeatedly check if the mouse position is on the grid, and if it isn't, use robot.mouseMove, to place it onto the grid.

Controling the cursor position

Hi all,
I have two x, and y signal outputs from a dll module and I plan to use them to control the cursor position. One problem I'm facing is that my signals are variable enough to cause the cursor to vibrate in stationary setting. So, I use hysterysis (putting threshold) to eliminate these fluctuations but the drawback is that keeping the treshold high enough to eliminate the fluctuations keeps me from getting a nice, smooth movement when the speed of movement (rate of x and y changing) is low. Any ideas or suggestions will be appreciated.
p.s. I am using "SetCursorPos".dll as you might have already guessed.
Thank you,
Elnaz

The formula for an exponential filter of degree D is the following:
New Average = (New Value + (D-1)*Old Average)/D
I usually add a special case for startup so that D is never greater than the number of points.
As I said, it is a low-pass filter, much like using a running average. I usually like it because the state is simply a single value (Old Average) instead of the array of values you have to keep around to do a running average.
As to the new question of separating high-frequency noise from your high-frequency signal, that is a bit more complicated (obviously). You should take a power spectrum of the noise to see if there is a characteristic feature you can use (cutoff frequency, strong peaks).

Please check the list yourself and co,mare the necessary CR version with the one your version of Photoshop utilizes.
If the version os higher than yours you can use the free DNG Converter – as to how to use it please read up on that.

Where can I find the Java SE 6 runtime download so I can get Adobe Photoshop CS5 up and running again.

Where can I find the Java SE 6 runtime download so I can get Adobe Photoshop CS5 up and running again. I have to go this route. Currently on my Mac, I need to be running Java 7.65 for work-related stuff. I went to the Java site, but could not find anything that simply says "Java SE 6 runtime" ... Or, is there another way to get CS5 up and running with my recent Yosemite download?

No, I can't go that route. I have to stick with my current Java 7.65 ... Our IT department said just to download SE6 Runtime separately ... If I was understanding that correctly. Or, can you have two different versions of Java running ... 6 ... and 7.65?

I currently have Photoshop CS5 standard, and want to upgrade to CS5 Extended to get the 3D capabilities. Is this possible, I don't see any CS5 upgrades available? I tried to download a new trial version as well, but my current operating system will not support it, so I'd like to stick w/ a version of CS5 that will allow me to work in 3D. What are my options?

You can upgrade to CS6 extended for $400

I am running Windows 7 64 bit ultimate and have the same problem. My hard drive crashed, installed a new one and then reinstalled CS5 extended. Installation went fine, but can no longer open my camera RAW files from Photoshop (camera is a Canon EOS T2i. The message also tells me I am not eligible for the update. I am... and I cannot open my files and I could before. I can find nowhere to contact Adobe to tell me how to proceed. My daughter is all a registered user of the same product and she had no problems upgrading... we purchased ours each at the same time. I do know the difference is that I had to reinstall and she did not. If that means anything.

How to get the cursor position on a picture?

I'd like to show the cursor position on a picture
which is 400 by 400 pixel size and located at
(0, 0, 400, 400) on a panel. So suppose that the
cursor is at (50, 50), how can the java code know?
Thank you.

I am thinking about this, and use something like
JPanel.setFocusable(true). Thank you.

Is there a way to get the cursor position index of html text field

I'm trying to work on a text pad like MC with "insert text at
position X" and "find and replace" can anyone tell me how to find
the cursor index of an html text field. Selection.getBeginIndex() ,
Selection.getEndIndex(), Selection.getCaretIndex() as far as I know
these methods only work with text and not htmltext.
What I'm trying to do is assign different parts of the string
to variables so that I can combine them to reconstitute my html
string.

enfantterrible:
If I understand correctly, you want the corresponding
position in the
htmlText propery of the caret index (which as you point out
is only the
position in the plain text version of the textfield content).
Below is how I would do it. Maybe there's an easier or more
efficient
way (using XML objects etc), but I don't know it. You could
conduct all
your string searches in the plain text and then convert the
result to
the html positions. I didn't build this to accept negative
parameters
for the pos parameter (e.g. from end of string backwards) but
the
function could be adapted to do this too if necessary. The
test data is
not proper html from a text field, but it doesn't really
matter what it
is so long as its formatted correctly. It just separates the
tags from
the content to enable apples with apples comparison.
//some test data
var testStringXML = "<format>Hel<b>lo i can't
t<i>ell you h</i>ow hap</b>py I
am.</format>";
var undecoratedString = "Hello i can't tell you how happy I
am.";
//the conversion function
function findDecoratedPosition(pos:Number, xmlString:String,
test:Boolean):Number {
//anything between '<' and '>' should be excluded from
plain text search.
//create an array of array elements (n=2) consisting of tag
then plain text
//requires correctly formatted xml/html
var tempArr:Array = xmlString.split("<");
for (var aa = 0; aa<tempArr.length; aa++) {
tempArr[aa] = tempArr[aa].split(">");
//remove the first and last elements of the new array (these
are empty)
tempArr.pop();
tempArr.shift();
//find the corresponding plaintext location and calculate
the "decorated" position
var retPos:Number = 0;
var posCount:Number = 0;
for (var aa = 0; aa<tempArr.length; aa++) {
retPos += tempArr[aa][0].length+2+tempArr[aa][1].length;
//+2 allows for missing < and >
posCount += tempArr[aa][1].length;
if (posCount>pos) {
return (retPos+(pos-posCount));
//out of range
return -1;
//test code:
for (var aa = 0; aa<undecoratedString.length; aa++) {
var altPos = findDecoratedPosition(aa, testStringXML);
trace(undecoratedString.charAt(aa)+" in position "+aa+"
plainText equates to position "+altPos+" in the decorated version
["+testStringXML.charAt(altPos)+"]");
}
