PS Elements 10 question

I just purchased photoshop elements 10 and I am really struggling trying to figure out how to use it. I owned PS elements 4.0 for years and I was quite savvy using it. I have read through the manual and searched the internet but I cannot find answers to my questions. My toolbar is basically useless.
As you can see it has only 8 tools. The type tool is not even on there and I can't seem to find it. So .... question 1 - what happened to the toolbar, how do i get it back?
Secondly the program will not let me do anything with layers to my photos that I have on there. No duplicating, adding, removing, or merging layers. Why wont it let me? Please help, I would really appreciate it!

You'll probably get more complete answers in the photoshop elements forum, but it's looks like your in the Qiuck Edit mode.
Press the Full button to get to the full edit mode.

More ACR for elements questions

After having played around with ACR 4.1 I have a few questions and observations:
Not all the the features described as being in 4.1 in this article
http://photoshopnews.com/2007/05/31/about-camera-raw-41/
seem to be accessible, e.g. holding down the alt key while looking at radius and sharpening values to see the masks applied. Are these features available from CS but not in elements (It's the same plugin) or were they never implemented in 4.1 but only in some beta copy of the SW?
As noted in different msgs, there is scarcely any documentation for ACR 4.1 except what I can glean from articles like the one above and from trial and error - am I correct in this assessment?
If I bring the raw file into elements, some of the functions can work on 16 bit files but for most I must permanently convert down to 8 bits. How much print quality am I losing for 11x14 blowups during this process? I guess I'm losing none in resolution (PPI) but a little in gradations of color and luminosity.
How does this raw pre-processing in ACR compare with the new Nikon Capture 4 ( I have a D40x) ? Is it worth having both sets of SW? I couldn't find a price for Capture4 in the website - only a 30 day download trial. Anybody have any idea how much it costs?
Now if I would only go out and shoot some more photos instead of nerding out on the tech stuff!! Thanks.
Chris

Thanks Barbara - you wrote:
Your printer will almost certainly downsample your image to 8 bits when you print, so you're not losing there. The loss, such as it is, is in the available gradations of color for editing.
Is this the case If I get it printed at a photo printing/editing store (we have Mtophoto here in CO which I really like because a couple of the guys there really know their stuff)?

Search Help attached to Data Element Question

Hello! Hopefully this is a simple question to answer. I have looked online but cannot find exactly what I need.
We currently have a search help attached to a data element. The search help is a custom search help. It does work so when you are in the screen it will show you options to pick from for that field. However, the field also allows for free-form text so the user can type in whatever and the screen will take it.
Is there a way through the data element or search help to make it so the user is restricted to only what is in the search help and cannot just enter whatever?
Thanks!!

For restricting values You can use the at selection screen event on that field.
The search help field values will be there in a table .
So what ever values are there in the table for that particular field , only those values will come in F4 also ..
If it not maintained then issue an appropriate error message.
at-selection screen on p_field.
selct single field from table into v_value.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
message ""Error message.
Endif.

WS-Policy Confidentiality Element Question

I have a Web service that requires WS-Security encryption and signing for parts of the request and encrypts and signs parts of the response. I am attempting to create a proxy to invoke that back-end WS-Security Web service.
I've created two custom WS-Policy files, one that corresponds to the request and one that corresponds to the response for the back end Web service.
I've modified the WSDL for my business service to reference the two policy files.
Inside the ALSB proxy, I am able to apply the correct encryption/signature on the request to the back end Web service. I can invoke the proxy and see the back-end Web service being invoked with the correct components encrypted and signed.
The problem I am having is with the WS-Policy file that describes the response.
My understanding is that the policy for the response has to be abstract in order to be able to decrypt the response.. my policy file has a Confidentiatlity element that looks like:
<wssp:Confidentiality>
<wssp:KeyWrappingAlgorithm URI="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#rsa-1_5"/>
<wssp:Target>
<wssp:EncryptionAlgorithm
URI="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#tripledes-cbc"/>
<wssp:MessageParts>
/xpath/to/element
</wssp:MessageParts>
</wssp:Target>
<wssp:KeyInfo/>
</wssp:Confidentiality>
However when I invoke the proxy with this in the response policy, the proxy doesn't invoke the back end Web service I get the following error on the console:
Failed to load WSDL binding information for service
If I remove the <Confidentiality> element it invokes the back-end Web service but is unable to decrypt the results.. I get an error that references the CertPathBuilder
How am I supposed to specify the Confidentiality on the response?
(The proxy service has a proxy service provider associated with it and the proxy service provider has both encryption and digital signature credentials as well)

Hi Martin,
uff, its a long time ago ;-)
Not directly, I created an Implicit Enhancement Spot at the end of method APPLY() (class CL_ST_USERNAME10).
Based on the interface name I'm reading a custom configuration table in order to define (overwrite) the username token settings in structure (instance attribute) "m_username_token".
I also opened a message at SAP, because the digest password was not calculated correctly.
The answer was the following OSS Note provided by SAP:
1587834 - wsse:UsernameToken: incorrect Password digest
I created the WS-Policy manually and attached it to the WSDL file.
This will generate the signature configuration.
It is very helpful to create a "dummy" provider service with the same WSS settings (SOAMANAGER) in order to generate a WS-Policy template.
If you need further information, don't hesitate to contact me.
Kind regards
Axel

Photoshop elements question

Should I delete photoshop elements 9 from my computer since I now have Photshop elements 12. It takes up space. Will I lose anything?

You won't lose anything but you do need to take time getting used to PSE12 because it is completely different from PSE10 and before.
However, it is your choice but I would keep it for about a month so that PSE12 becomes easy to use.

GUI element question

Hey guys. I was wondering, is it possible to create this GUI element with Scripting?
I could create EditText element, but I'd like to use, if possible, this more elegant way for user to input values.
I am talking about 120 / 84 / 0 elements in this GUI (screenshot from Character palette)
Is it doable?

Yeah those sliding edit texts are cute, but unfortately they are not part of ScriptUI.
As David said, you can stack 2 texts, but that will only have aesthetic effects.
It could be useful to store more digits in the edit texts and display less in the static one for nicer UI (like native sliders do), but this is something one simply never need when scripting...
var w = new Window("palette");
var tt =w.add("group{orientation: 'stack',\
                                staticT: StaticText{text: '0.0', characters: 8, justify: 'left', visible: true},\
                                editT: EditText{text: '0.0', characters: 8, justify: 'right', visible: false}\
tt.staticT.onActivate = function(){this.visible=false; this.parent.editT.visible=true;};
tt.editT.onChange=tt.editT.onDeactivate=function(){
    var x=parseFloat(this.text) || 0.0;
    this.text = x.toFixed(3);
    this.parent.staticT.text = x.toFixed(1);
    this.visible=false;
    this.parent.staticT.visible=true;
w.center();
w.show();
When there is no element to give focus to (like in this example) it is hard to get the static text back if you finally don't change its value...

Gateway element question

Hello,
I have a process designed with multiple reviewer levels. The process is designed to automate a route slip for a project. The route slip is a simple PDF that has comment fields for each user to enter their comments for the project into. In some of the reviewer levels there are multiple users who need to add their comments to the PDF at the same time. I have set up the process at those points to go through a gateway element. The element is set to And-Wait, and has at most three branches. The branches are exactly the same in that I'm setting some variables, and then have a User Assigned Task set up to allow each user to add their comments to the form. The form has a section set up for each user to enter their own comments into. The intended goal is to capture each users comments before the form goes to the next reviewer level. The problem is that when I get to the next reviewer level in the process only the last user who adds comments inside the gateway has their comments saved and passed through. I am a little puzzled on why the gateway element isn't capturing each users comments. Any assistance or insight into my problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Kyle

The Gateway element sends the item in parallel and they each get a copy of the Form variable for the duration of their branch. Once the split is completed it'll update the main process Form variable with the content from the last branch that was complete.
Right now, there is not built in functionality that will combine the three instance of the Form variables from the three branches back into the main process. You'll need to do that manually using a SetValue operation.
I would store the comments from each branch in a string variable. Then update the main process Form variable with the content of the comments variables outside of the Gateway, just before it goes to the next approver.

PatternSequence UI Element question

Was wondering if anyone had any information on using the PatternSequence UI element.
We cannot not use Tabs with our current Ep version; since tabs do not work in Firefox.
So, we are attempting to use PatternSequence and their steps.
Understanding that this UI element is not supported, but it works in our current environment for all the browsers.
However, is there a way to code an automatic skip to the next step after a user performs an action on the current step?

I ran across this trying to figure out the same problem.
I finally found a thread which answered it.
Your code, corrected:
var ADAPTwinResource =
"dialog { \
     properties:{ \
          resizeable:false, \
          closeButton:false \
     preferredSize: [100, undefined], \
     text: 'Test Dialog', \
     frameLocation: [100,100], \
     pnl1: Panel {type:'tabbedpanel', \
          tab1: Panel { type:'tab',\
                    text:'Tab 1' \
          tab2: Panel {type:'tab',\
               text:'Tab 2' \
var ADAPTwin = new Window(ADAPTwinResource);
ADAPTwin.show();

Edit in Photoshop Elements, question

In Lightroom 3 when I try to edit several selected photos in Photoshop 3 only one showsup in the project bin.. i have reviewed the "edit" form and it is correct, I THINK?
E.g., I would like to take a number of images from LR to PSE for Merge (fake HDR). Also in many cases to synch or apply the same edit to a group.
Greatly appreciate,
Ed

Ed,
I have no problem opening multiple images from LR3 in PSE9 (Win7, WinXP), I do it often for panos.
Tell us a little more about:
Your O/S
Your LR version
Your PSE version
from which module (Develop, Library)
what types of files (Raw, ...)
your file format, bit depth etc. when going to PSE
exact steps you take to open multiple images (menu, right click?)

Adobe Premiere 8.0 Elements question

I have a clip recorded with Xsplit at 1080p with 25 FPS in MP4. Whenever I look at it in Windows Media Player, it plays fine, whenever I look at the clip in Premier it looks and plays fine. However, when I put it in the timeline, the video preview turns to a horrible quality, and when I try to play the video; the video bugs out and stops playing while the audio continues.
Any help?

lazyboredom
I have something for you to try.
What did you use for project preset? I am assuming PAL AVCHD Full HD1080i25 since there is no DSLR 1080p setting in version 8.0/8.0.1.
(Did you say what the recorder is offering in the way of video compression to go along with the .mp4 container format?)
Take that Timeline and export it to a file saved to the computer hard drive.
Share/Mobile Phones and Players/Apple iPd and iPhone/and preset = iPod and iPhone - High Quality.
Under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of that preset, have your Export Settings look as follows:
Then upload that file (H.264.mp4) to You Tube at the YouTube web site. What is the quality of the uploaded video?
We will be watching for the results.
Thanks.

OBIEE Apps data element question?

Please any body explain me, how we can find the right data is coming from the source.
Through Informatica in the OBIEE Apps
Thanks in Advance
Praveen

You can install the "data lineage" option, but it needs a lot of effort.
In Informatica, there are system table that gives you information about metadata, so you can find the "link" between a target table/column and source(s) table/column(s).
Then, in OBIEE, you can do the same for the link between presentation column and physical column.
Since physical column in OBIEE are your target column in Informatica, you can do the link between everything.
You have to put that into one big (more more) table, integrate that into OBIEE and create report that, for a presentation table/column, will give you the source table/column. If you work with the catalog manager, you can even do the same with the web catalog.
But Oracle has already simplified the job by giving you RPD and documentation about that.
The first thing to do is to search for "data lineage" in BI Apps. Ask your Oracle contact for more information, they're aware about that because it's a frequent need in BI projects.

The question about cost element

business scenario:
1,now create a blended activity type rate that includes three costs(water + electricity, etc...). That way, when confirm an activity, it have all the costs taken care of. However, here three costs will goto a single cost element.
question: after confirmation, how to translate the cost into original three cost element?
Please explain me all the steps to be required.
Thanks in advance!

Use Costing sheet to book the cost of Water, Electricity etc. to different Cost Elements.
1. T.code: OPL1, select the costing variant that has been mantained in the T. Code OPUV "CstgVariantPlan".
2. Go to the valuation variant in control tab of the costing variant.go to the overhead tab and click on the costing sheet.
3. Inside the costing sheet select the costing sheet and check the base for that costing row. Here you ca see that the cost element range or the Groups are mentioned so any cost that is hitting these cost elements will be used for the calculation of the overhead and that will be calculated and distributed based on the overhead rate and the will be loaded on the credit cost element.
Reward points if helpful.
