Problem with CS5 patch tool

Hi, I have this annoying problem with the patch tool that whenever I use it, i.e., drag the selected area to a new location it pastes the selected area as if it were smudged, such as feathered, and I practically can't use it. I have checked the selection and it is not feathered, but still, the selection being pasted is smudged. Any settings that I am not aware of?
Thanks.

The Patch (content aware) tool is affected by the area around your selection. To get around the problem, make a selection of the beak and he surround without the bird and put it on a separate layer as shown here. Then select the beak and apply the Patch command. Without the dark bird for reference, you will get the result you want.

Looking for a site that shows problems with windows patches or updates.

Looking for a site that shows problems with windows patches or updates...so I know what not to install.
Plenty of sites list and summarize individual patches, I want one that consolidates problems and complaints so I can better assess the risk. Currently I'm waiting to install patches several days and doing google searches. That works, but I'd rather find a place
that does it with expertise.
Which forums would be best to look for such problems.
Thanks in and advance for suggestions

Hi,
I agreed with Cyber and Rick.
Windows update helps to keep your PC safer—and your software current—by fetching the latest security and feature updates from Microsoft via the Internet.
Although there might be some problems when installing it, Windows update is not the one to blame.

Lightroom 5, Mac. Problem with the Radial Tool. Marquee Lines disappear.

Lightroom 5 Mac. Problem with the Radial Tool. I use this tool a lot. I must have hit a hot key by accident because between photos the marquee lines have disappeared and i don't know how to get them back. Without the marquee lines there I cannot rotate or expand the radial tool.

I have attempted to uninstall, empty trash and a fresh download from Adobe. The problem is still there...

Template problem with cs5

I've transferred all my sites to cs5 (from cs4). I build all my sites with DW templates. When I bring up my pages from any site in DW cs4, I can edit them no problem. When I bring them up in cs5, all of a sudden I have the "no-edit" symbol (red circle crossed) when I try to type over any editable areas. Is there a setting that I am missing that I forgot to readjust when I loaded the files in cs5?
Thanks in advance
Jules

I think I'm talking to myself, here...
But just in case anyone has run into this problem with cs5...
I usually create editable regions with content alone (minus divs). It seems that cs5 won't allow this somehow. I do this so that my clients won't move the div and can highlight the text that they want to change without screwing up the placement of the divs or having to click on it several times in Contribute in order to highlight the text.
Example: (This one works)
      
   <div id="contentLeft">
        <table width="100%" border="0" align="left" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" background="images/transBack.png">
        <tr><td>

CS5: Problem with the brush tool

Hi there,
I have a problem with the brush in CS5.
My system:
Win 7 Home Premium
ATI Graphics Card (Radeon HD 5770)
When I use the "Alt" key and right mouse button to change the size or the "hardness" of the current brush there is no more the red color (inside the brush) indicating the "hardness" (or the size).
I already updated the driver of my graphics card and checked the preferences (disabling and enabling OpenGL).
There were no other modifications to my system (despite Windows Updates and the Update to Camera Raw 6.4).
Any hints?
Thanks Holger.

Hi Noel,
I should have read your post before deinstalling Photoshop.
Thanks for your answer. I thought that I have used Photoshop (and the brush resize mouse command) after installing the 11.3 version of the catalyst driver. But it seems I was wrong. I will downgrade now to 11.2.
Thanks,
Holger.

Problem with NIK "Selective Tool" not appearing in PS5

I have a problem and I am trying to track down what is the cause and how to resolve it. I installed Nik Color Efex Pro 3.110 into Photoshop CS5 (32bit) within Windows XP and the "Selective Tool" does not appear. According to everything I've read and googled about so far, this is not normal behavior. I have tried running the Automate Selective Tool to get it to run, and it does nothing either. I have also checked the registry entry bit for this and it is set to properly. The strange thing is that the plugin works properly from CS4. The OnOne plugin suite also functions properly from within CS5. Is there some known incompatibility (aside from the known 64bit issues that are not applicable in this case) with CS5 and the Nik Selective Tool palette? Where should I check for problems that might be preventing the Selective Tool from launching properly?
Just for informational purposes, this is from a fresh install of Photoshop CS5 on a new installation of Windoes XP SP3 (fully updated).

I think I found it - Application deficiency. It is the language that you are logged with. If it is not English the application is not recording the text that you type in the reason/activity fields upon FF session.
I hope the latest patches are fixing this!

CS6 master page problems with CS5.5 script

Hi.
I've an extensive script created for CS5.5, that creates 16 documents, styles them, and adds them to a book file.
Under CS6, it still works fine, creates all the necessary stylesheets and master pages, but the master page items are shifted.
I've checked the position with the Page tool, and clicked Show Master Page Overlay, and the centre of the master pages are now sitting at the centre of the spread (which is also the zero point of the ruler).
I've tried versioning for CS5.5, but I can't get it to stick (compiling simply changes CS6 to CS5").
Can anyone tell me how to correct the problem? Ideally, I'd like to append the part of my script that creates the master page. This starts thus:
set currentMaster to master spread "A-Master" of Pub00
          set base name of currentMaster to "Standard Pages"
          tell currentMaster
make guide with properties {orientation:vertical, location:"138mm"}
make guide with properties {orientation:vertical, location:"140mm"}
                    tell margin preferences of pages
                              set top to topMargin
                              set left to insideMargin
                              set bottom to bottomMargin
                              set right to outsideMargin
                              set column count to docColumns
                              set column gutter to colGutter
                    end tell
... and then I start creating para and character styles, and add various frames with content to the masters.
Another section to create a master starts with ...
tell currentMaster
                              tell page 1
... so should I use the 'tell page 1' block to alter the master overlay, or somewhere else?
Each document only has three different master pages, but I now have to open all 16, and use the Page tool to shift the master overaly, which can be pretty time consuming.
Any pointers would be most appreciated.

I'm seeing this as well, but when I go to override master page items to a normal page. This code worked fine on CS5, but broke when we updated to CS6.
on override_master_page_items(p)
-- Overrides all possible master page items for a given page.
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS6"
    try
      -- Get the list of items to override
      set i to master page items of p
      set b to {}
      repeat with v in i
        -- Build the list of items that we will override so we can process it all at   once (for speed)
        try
          if allow overrides of v is true then
            -- Only override an item if it is in fact possible to do so.
            set b to {b, v}
          end if
        end try
      end repeat
      -- Override all the items that we found above.
      set overriddenItems to override b destination page p
    end try
end tell
end override_master_page_items
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Svg line chart problem with latest patch?

Hi team,
I was checking out one page containing an SVG chart that I didn't modify in 2 weeks, according to the application builder, but it seems to hang after displaying the first line series of 4 total.
It was working before the last patch was installed.
It's page 65 of application 21670 in the online environment.
Choose "automobile" from the first drop down list and click on the button, the chart appears but then it seems to be waiting for something to download.
If you move the mouse over any textual part, you can see in the status line the following message:
"xml processing instuction not at start of external entity: line 172, column 0".
If you open up the SVG source by right clicking on the chart, you will see at the end of the file an error text message returned by oracle (ORA-06502), but what is particularly strange is the presence of an <?xml> processing instruction just in the middle of the source code listing.
It looks like it is trying to append the second chart series by appending another svg source file.
Could you check if I did anything wrong or if it is a problem of the patch?
I have got other chart type running without problems.
Thanks!
Bye,
Flavio

Things are getting complicated.
I found some cases where the chart is displayed correctly, which made me think of some unexpected values returned by the underlying queries.
Since my chart is made up of 4 different series returning 12 points each, I assembled the queries with UNION ALL and checked out what was returned both in a failing case and a successful one but I can't figure out a valid explanation, the only thing I notice is that in the failing case there are some values higher than average, say 10 times bigger than the average value and for some reason the chart stops drawing points exactly after the peak value (1155.62, see below).
Each series returns exactly 12 points, some nulls, but that's doesn't seem to be the problem.
I wonder if the problem is with the "autoscale" algorithm, but I am lost at the moment...

Problems with Photoshop cs6 tools

Problem with a patch for Creative Media Explorer for Ze

Has anyone had any problems with their PC (rebooting itself after install and getting a blue screen) when downloading and installing the update for Creative Media Explorer for Zen M to fix the album art problem for WMP?I downloaded this update per a response I got to thread here:http://forums.creative.com/creativel...ssage.id=79299?I downloaded the patch to update Creative Media Explorer. I was going to upgrade WMP to after that?but my PC got stuck at the startup screen during boot up. The hard dri've light indicator was on solid also. I thought maybe the dri've had died since I have had it for quite some time now. I took the dri've out and put it in an external enclosure I have that connects via USB. I was able to get into BIOS and set the boot order to boot from a USB dri've. When it started to boot up, it looked as if it was going to come up but it didn't. I seen a flash of a blue screen and the PC rebooted itself. I'm wondering if the update is causing the OS to hose up on start up. That's why I'm just wondering if anyone has downloaded this update with any problems. The update can be found here: http://us.creative.com/support/downl...ype=3&x=40&y=7. It is number 5. I'm currently defraging my dri've and I am somehow going to try and repair the OS if I can and uninstall Media Explorer and reinstall. Oh one other thing, it will not boot into safe mode either.

I downloaded the patch and installed it on my PC and everything worked like a charm, and right after that my music started showing Album Art.However, I still didn't replace the new firmware on my Zen Vision M (.6) and I wonder if I should, since everything seems to work wonderfully well at this point?

Photoshop CC 2015 Keeps Failing to Install: Problem With a Patch

Hi all,
I tried to install Photoshop. I got pretty far but then the installing stopped and bright orange letters popped up saying Installation Failed or something similar to that. I clicked on the Learn More link next to the message.
It said there was a problem with one of the patches, so it failed to install. It told me to re-try in a few minutes.
A few minutes later, I re-tried it and now it says Update Failed - Learn More. I kept re-trying and it ends up doing the same thing over and over.
It told me to contact customer support.
..so here I am.
How do I fix this?
Thanks

Benh89930539 I would recommend reviewing the installation log files for update which is failing to apply. You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log files at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC. You are welcome to post any specific errors located to this discussion.

After Effects problem with clone stamp tool

Hi,
I've been using clone stamp tool in Photoshop for years and has no problem with it. But somehow I could never get it work on After Effects. After alt+click to select source I can then click (and hold left mouse button), rub and change the target area as expected but as soon as I let go the mouse button the target area reverts back to original.
What did I do wrong?
thanks.

First question that I have for you is did you look in the help files?. Simply type clone stamp in the search After Effects Help field at the top right corner of the application frame it you will find all kinds of information. There are a few good tutorials linked directly from the help file. After Effects Help | Paint tools: Brush, Clone Stamp, and Eraser
Because After Effects works with video you have to make sure you have the correct options for your clone stamp or your paint tool selected and you are working in the correct window. It is not so much that the clone stamp is not working, it is just that you probably do not have it set up correctly.

Problem with pen & brush tools

Hi,
I've been at this for all day. I reset preferences and reinstalled but it didn't help.
I select either pen or brush tool, set the brush size to lets say 16pt, choose a default width profile and set the brush as basic. As i draw the line/make the anchor point the settings are reset to 1pt, normal width profile and sometimes 2pt oval. I can reselect the line and apply the settings then, as i click on the artboard the settings remain and if i try to draw a new line the settings are reset again.
I'm using cs5 on mac.
Any ideas?

You can't.
You can not have an oval caligraphy brush with a width profile assigned.
There's no workaround for that. It simply can not be done. If you want a profile, you can't use a caligraphy brush. If you want an oval, you can't assign a profile.
There is no way to set up a specific brush how you are asking. The two features are conflicting. The purpose of an oval brush (or any caligraphy brush) is to allow you to alter the width of the brush stroke as you draw. The purpose of a profile is to alter the width of a stroke as well. You can not have two items trying to fight for the same appearance. It's like asking how can I draw a rectangle with no fill but looks green in the middle. You can't.
I believe what you need to do to achieve the appearance you want is to simply draw a path, set a profile, then manually adjust the profile with the width tool if needed. You can get this to look almost identical to an oval caligraphy brush if desired. Which is why you can't do both at the same time.
