Possible to create a lossless menu image in Photoshop?

I am trying to get the best-looking menu for Encore... one that does not have pixelation. I have created them super high res (1920 x 1080) as well as final output size (720 x 480). They are both still pixelated on my HD TV. I know going from standard def to high def is the problem, but I wondered if anyone has any ideas to minimize the visual impact of this conversion? For example, does interlacing or field order effect the way pixel data would be presented?

DVD on an HD screen without upscaling will NOT be fabulous. I don't disagree with your assessment of what you must expect in user equipment, but high-value donors should have bluray players - which should be upscaling.
Highlights (so much button text unless you keep in the background) can only be 2 bit, indexed color on DVD. anything rounded will be trouble. All the qualifiers for font style and size apply.

Is it possible to export a DVDSP menu as .PSD Photoshop file?

I promise this will be the last question for tonight. Is it possible to export a DVDSP menu as .PSD Photoshop file with its layers intact? I'd like to examine the structure to see if there's an easy way to re-create all my EncoreDVD menus as DVDSP menus.
Peace, BJ

Without opening DVDSP, I can't say for sure, but is there an option to export the menu as Movie to Image Sequence? Is there an option to export the menu at all? Sorry for asking a question to answer a question, but I don't have my scratch disk with me and don't want to open DVDSP without having my current project with me. However, the image sequence wouldn't give you layers. Simply put, I don't think so. Apple's apps have played well when it comes to importing .psd files, but as far as creating them, not so well. As far as recreating Encore Menus, is there an XML type file that's compatible with both Encore and DVDSP where you could just reconnect your media assets in DVDSP and then import this XML file?
Good luck either way and report back with what you find,

Is it possible to create a context menu, which is launched by right mouse button click event?

The question is following: when you are pushing right button in the window of a working vi you see the build-in context menu of labview. Is it possible to customize it, or create the new one?

There's no nuilt-in LabVIEW function or tool to do it, but Dave Ritter published an artical in the LabVIEW Technical Resource last year that described how to do this. It uses the Event Structure so you need to have at least LabVIEW 6.1.
You can read a bit of the artical here. There's also a link on the bottom of the page where you can purchase that issue to get the entire artical and sample code.

Is it possible to create a down menu in ID without hyperlinking?

Hi there,
I am trying to design a template for workorder printing proofs and I was wondering if this operation is possible:
Is there was a way to make a drop down menu that contains elements (in this case material names) that when exported, I can choose the element from a drop down menu, so that when I resave the pdf it will show that material name if I were to reopen the document? Also, if I decide to print it, will it show that material name in the position I specified the drop down menu to be located in InDesign?
I know I can make drop down menus that hyperlink, but I am not looking for this pdf to be interactive, but just a way to store more information.
Thanks in advance.

It sounds like a PDF form. InDesign CS6 can now export PDF forms which sound like they work the way you want.

It seems not possible to create this kind of "Brush" in Photoshop CS6, can anyone help?

I found this website.
http://newhive.com/andrew/drawonme?q=%23All%2F
And I thought this "brush" is a really cool technique for fast sketches. But it does not seem possible in photoshop, does it? I tested it with CS5 and even the new CS6 Brushes.
Thanks for any help

If I understand correctly the »thing« about this Brush is that it creates individual lines that interact with existing strokes by fanning them out when in proximity to an existing path.
I think this is not possible with a Brush in Photoshop what with it being a pixel oriented application (with some vector functionality, though, fortunately).

How to create high dynamic range image in Photoshop Elements 2.0?

I wonder if it is possible to Photoshop Elements 2.0. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

If you are talking about the idea of merging exposures IN ELEMENTS 2 and you are shooting RAW, you can do what Barbara suggests: Open the file once with favorable settings for the bright parts of the image and a second time for the shadows and merge. In Elements 2, the images will not open in 16-bit, and will be converted immediately to 8-bit. You will find that registration is right on, but there will be issues with the process if you want to retain higher bit counts (which to me is really the only way to have higher dynamic range in reality). I don't know where these started to be called 'high-dynamic range', and I think it is really a bit of a misnomer--especially in 8-bit. Even Elements 5 will not support 16-bit images with layers, so the opportunity to get true accentuation of dynamic range is...limited.

Is it possible to create a checkmark next to a context menu item in a Tree in LabVIEW?

Hello,
I'm creating a custom application where a particular context menu will be shown to the user depending on what item in the Tree they have right-clicked on. One of the items in the menu that I would like to display is essentially a "Disable" option. I'm looking for a way to show the user the current state of this Disable option by providing a checkmark next to it if they have already clicked it for a particular item in the tree. Here's a screenshot of a similar checkmark from the LabVIEW dev environment drop-down menus:
Does anyone know if it is possible to create a context menu with a checkmark like the one above in a Tree in LabVIEW? I've tried searching the web and here in the NI forums but without much luck. Thanks!

Wow, I know this one!
I used it a couple of years ago (LV 8.6)
There is an option to "Set Menu Item Info" that allows you to set the check for a context menu item.

Create a DVD menu to play only selected scenes?

Hi,
I'm using Premiere Elements 11. Is it possible to create a DVD menu for automatic play of selected scenes? As an example, my movie may have 12 scenes. However, I would like to give the user the capability to play scenes 2, 4, 6, & 12, without interruption (or the need to go back to the menu).
Thanks,
Dean

ATR,
I also think that your workaround can work for this instance, unless I mis-read the requirements.
As for Encore, as of EncoreDVD 2.0 (CS 2 Production Studio in my case), Encore CS 5, CS 5.5 and CS 6 (the end of the line for Encore), it can do that easily.
Now, I am only guessing with Sony's DVD Architect, but would hope that it can do the same. Maybe Steve Grisetti can comment, since he "wrote the book" on that program.
As we all know, PrE has many authoring limitations. First, they are semi-automatic, and very linear. That said, for most users, it works just fine. However, there are many, fairly common navigation schemes, that just do not directly figure into what it can do.
The downside to a full-featured authoring program, is that that "semi-automatic" work will not be done - one must do things by hand, but with that extra work, comes vast power. To me, that is a small trade-off. I will go for "power" any day. Of course, as I normally use Encore, I am used to doing much by hand, so it's just part of my authoring scheme.
I wish that I knew Sony's DVD Architect better, but I have used Encore for so long, that I have never found a need to even look at it. All that I know has come from here, or Muvipix, where it always gets great recs. Since Encore is no longer part of Adobe, I have the choice to either stick with my versions, or look to another authoring program. Over the years, I have used Encore, Sonic Scenarist (never owned it myself, but authored on other's systems, since it cost about US $50K), and DVD Studio (good, but with a clunky interface). Encore was my go-to app., but then, it will be no more.

Create repeating / tiled background images

I may have missed this in the previous versions of Adobe Photoshop.
Is there "a way / or method" to create repeating / tiled background images in photoshop?
Many times a "tile" for a tiled background is quite small at around 150px x 150px.
1:
It would be very nice to be able to work on the tile, be able to zoom in and out of it, and actively see a functioning live tiled background.
Yes it might be a bit like a kaleidescope, but it would be live and you would see any harshness in the pattern and can remedy glitches it in real time.
2:
It would also be very nice to be able to "draw / paint / edit" off the edge of the tile and have the effect carried over to the other side...
Yes just like in Asteroids.
I think creating Tiled BG's is a very strong contender for being one of the more frustrating things I do with Photoshop. I hope the above ideas can be added to PS6.
Just to you you know... DPaint IV for the Amiga did this very well back in 1990'ish.

There will not be any substantial changes to CS6 to add new features beyond the beta. We are too far along in the process for that. To accomplish what you desire, can you use the pattern feature to tile? For any new features you wish to request, you can to to this website http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family people can vote on the favorite features.
Pattie
Use the Rectangle Marquee tool on any open image to select an area to use as a pattern. Feather must be set to 0 pixels. Note that large images may become unwieldy.
Choose Edit > Define Pattern.
Enter a name for the pattern in the Pattern Name dialog box.

Is it possible to create a menu structure within iWeb with a so called tree layout? iWeb only provides automatically a horizontal layout

Is it possible to create a menu structure within iWeb with a so called tree layout? iWeb only provides automatically a horizontal layout

Not in iWeb itself.
You have to create these menus yourself. Start here :
     A List Apart: Articles: Suckerfish Dropdowns
Also, see podcast episode 9 of
     CSS Tricks and Tips
and then add them to a webpage with the HTML Snippet.
Or add the menu to the webpage with a JavaScript.
Here's a sample page :

The how-to-do page are here and here.

You may have to learn HTML, CSS, JavaScript, AJAX, DOM and how iWeb creates its pages.

Is it possible to create a secure empty trash shortcut in file menu?

I have second finger click enabled so that I can quickly move files to the trash bin from the contextual menu. This is fine and dandy, however, for files containing sensitive informaton, I'd like to have a "Secure File Delete" option available (file bypasses the trash bin and is wiped after selecting said option).
I've searched the threads and checked system prefs. Only options are to change "empty trash" to "secure empty trash". This wouldn't work as I have more files that are typically trashed and not wiped. It'd be nice to have it available as a convenience I suppose
I know theres an app in the app store that offers this functionality. It's $3-4.
So my question...is it possible to create such a contextual menu option on my own?
heres an example of what I'm ltalking about...

Create a new Service in Automator.
Set it to receive files an folders in the Finder.
Drag in an Ask for Confirmation action if you want it.
Drag in a Run Shell Script action from the Utilities section of the Library.
Set it to Pass Input as Arguments and Replace the code with:
srm -r "$@"
--That's ess-ar-em for Secure ReMove (just copy and paste)
Save it and it will show up in the Services menu when you right-click on an item in the Finder.
There are options you can add to it like -s for simple, -m for medium. The default (without options) is 35-pass Gutman.
You can see what options are available by opening Terminal and typeing
man srm
Hit space to scroll down. Q to quit the man page.
The Verbose and Interactive options won't work since you can respond.
Note that depending on the algorithm chosen, it may take some time for the file/folder to disappear from the Finder view.

Is it possible to create a Visual Studio plugin that can copy TFS work item ID by adding a context menu in the work item UI?

Our team is using VS2013 and TFS 2013, and in our daily work we often open a TFS query, then we need to open a work item, and we often need to copy the ID, for example, to the email.
But currently the field is read only, and we often manually copy it.
So is there any convenient way to solve this? Any built in ways?
If no, is it possible to create such a plugin?
Regards,

Hi Lei Yang
You can try the following work around to copy work item ID
for VS 2013:
Right click on work item tab header in VS 2013 and click 'Copy Full Path' from context menu
When you paste it on notepad/email you will get work item ID at the end of the path:
http://sumiran-dev:8080/tfs/web/wi.aspx?pcguid=d855bc22-69a8-45a5-b6fc-25f096ade8f5&id=46
For Web Portal:
Right click on work item link at top and click 'Copy shortcut' from the context menu
When you paste it on notepad/email you will get work item ID at the end of the shortcut:
http://sumiran-dev:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection/TFS%20Scrum%20Demo/_workitems/edit/46

Creating a dropdown menu from an image hotspot

How do you create a dropdown menu from an image hotspot? For
example, this website is a single jpg image with links generated
from hotspot coordinates on the image. Can I have someone click on
a hotspot and a dropdown menu appears?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Unfortunately, everyone knows, but nobody wanted to tell you.
Given this fact -
> this website is a single jpg image with links generated
from hotspot
> coordinates on the image.
one can assume that you are not very experienced with DW or
even with HTML.
In that case, the practical answer to your question would be
"no".
To create a 'drop-down' menu, you need to have a full web
page (not just an
image with image maps), containing a menu HTML structural
element. While
you *could* just place hidden elements on the page that would
only be
revealed (i.e., drop-down) when your image maps are rolled
over, the
practical reality is that this would be an extremely awkward
construct, and
not only most likely beyond the ken of someone who is
inexperienced, but
also just plain 'not right'.
Sorry to give you the bad news.
