Question about painting colors

I cut an object out of the background of a photo and would like to paint a color to match green grass where the object was cut out. On the color spectrum I can only find garish colors and a very limited range. Is there a fix for this? Thanks for any advice!

Activate the Eyedropper tool and click on the grass. This sets the Foreground color swatch (bottom of the Toobar) to that color. Activate the Brush tool and paint away.
Note: on the tools option bar for the Eyedropper, you an specify a sample size; in my PSE version the options are point sample, 3x3 px average, 5x5 px average. Since the grass is probably not a uniform shade of green you might want to use one of the averages.

A few questions about Patone colors

I have a few questions about patone colors since this is the first time I use them. I want to use them to create a letterhead and business cards in two colors.
1)
I do understand that the uncoated is more washed out than the coated patone colors. I heard that this is because the way paper absorbs the inkt. This is why the same inkt results in different colors on different paper (right?). My question is why is the patone uncoated black so much different than normal black (c=0 m=0 y=0 k=100) or rich black:
When I print a normal document with cmyk, I can get pretty dark black colors. Why is it that I cannot have that dark black color with patone colors? Even text documents printed on a cheap printer can get a darker color than the Patone color. It just looks way too grey for me.
2) For a first mockup, I want to print the patone colors as cmyk (since I put like 10 different colors on a page for fast comparison). I know that these cmyk colors differ from the patone colors and that I cannot get a 100% representation. But is there a way to convert patone to cmyk values?
I hope that some of you can help me out with my questions.
Thanks.

You can get Pantone's CMYK tints in Illustrator, (Swatches Panel > Open Swatch Library > Color Books > PANTONE+ Color Bridge Coated or Uncoated) but in my view, what's the point? If you're printing to a digital printer, just use RGB (HSB) or CMYK. Personally, I never use Pantone's CMYK so-called "equivalents."
Pantone colors are all mixed pigmented inks, many of which fluoresce beyond the gamut limits of RGB and especially CMYK. The original Pantone Matching System (PMS) was created for the printing industry. It outlined pigmented ink formulations for each of its colors.
Most digital printers (laser or inkjet) use CMYK. The CMYK color gamut is MUCH SMALLER than what many mixed inks, printed on either coated or uncoated papers can deliver. When you specify non-coated Pantone ink in AI, according to Pantone's conversion tables, AI tries to "approximate" what that color will look like on an uncoated sheet, using CMYK. -- In my opinion, this has little relevance to real-world conditions, and is to be avoided in most situations.
If your project is going to be printed on a printing press with spot Pantone inks, then by all means, use Pantone colors. But don't trust the screen colors; rather get a Pantone swatch book and look at the actual inks on both coated and uncoated papers, according to the stock you will use on the press.
With the printing industry rapidly dwindling in favor of the web and inkjet printers, Pantone has attempted to extend its relevance beyond the pull-date by publishing (in books and in software alliances, with such as Adobe) its old PMS inks, and their supposed LAB and CMYK equivalents. I say "supposed" because again, RGB monitors and CMYK inks can never be literally equivalent to many Pantone inks. But if you're going to print your project on a printing press, Pantone inks are still very relevant as "spot colors."
I also set my AI Preferences > Appearance of Black to both Display All Blacks Accurately, and Output All Blacks Accurately. The only exception to this might be when printing on a digital printer, where there should be no registration issues.
Rich black in AI is a screen phenomenon, unless in Prefs > Appearance of Black, you also specify "Output All Inks As Rich Black," -- something I would NEVER do if outputting for an actual printing press. I always set my blacks in AI to "Output All Blacks Acurately" when outputting for a press. If you fail to do this, then on the press you will see any minor registration problems, with C, M, and Y peeking out, especially around black type. UGH!
Good luck! :+)

Question about background colors

Greetings folks,
I have a question about background colors using a DW template in CS4.The page in question is here: http://www.webrevamps.com/dw/assignment11.html
On the left nav, I want the background color to extend throughout the entire sidebar. Not just where the text is. What am I doing wrong?
And actually the same question applies to the main content area.
Secondly, behind the graphic where the header is.... in DW it shows as a black background covering the entire header area, but that is not the way it looks when posted online. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

On the left nav, I want the background color to extend throughout the entire sidebar. Not just where the text is. What am I doing wrong?
Nothing. THis question is asked and answered several times a day. Google "faux columns" to see a slick way to make it look like you have fixed this.
Secondly, behind the graphic where the header is.... in DW it shows as a black background covering the entire header area, but that is not the way it looks when posted online. What am I doing wrong?
No idea. It looks exactly the same to me in CS5, nor do I see any reason why it wouldn't look the same in CS4.

Question about custom color swatches in Photoshop CS4 Mac

Hello.
I have about fifty or so custom color swatches and wanted to back them up. Where are they located in Photoshop CS4 for Mac?
Thank you.

They would be stored where you saved them to.
If you have never had the foresight to save them (Edit > Preset Manager) they would only be in the Preferences (»Swatches.psp«), I guess.

Question about Paint Tool

Is there any way you can control how fast the light streak preset for the paint stroke tool to move? Adjusting the layer's time length doesn't do anything and I don't see any speed options available. I want to slow down the stroke's travel across the screen. The Write-On option also doesn't seem to work when the trail I make lasts for more than 3ish seconds....it ends up not displaying anything.

If you look closely, the light streak presets use keyframes in the Color Over Stroke parameter in the Stroke section of the Shape tab. Go to that section and watch how the Opacity changes over time as well as the overall color.
Unfortunately, I was unable to trick it into going slower by using a behavior. It seems as if you can't add retiming behaviors to paint strokes. This means that if you want to slow it down, you'll have to do it the hard way.
Go to the Stroke section in the Shape tab of the inspector. Click on the keyframe button to the right of the presets (looks like a dash or a diamond) and select Show in Keyframe Editor from the menu. This will show you all the keyframes used in that parameter.
To lengthen, make sure the clip is as long as you want it and go to the end. Lasso all the end keyframes at the point they currently exist (frame 60 I think), and drag towards the end of the clip making sure to hold down the shift key so that their relative values don't change, only their positions.
Now do the same with the keyframes in the middle (at frame 30) and drag them to the current middle. In my case I made the 2 sec effect last for 3 secs. So I dragged the end keyframes to frame 90, and the middle keyframes to frame 45.
That will slow down the effect for you.

A question about Bar Colors in SSRS Bar Chart

I have a chart in a report that has 27 categories, and no series. The categories all display properly with the correct results, so the chart is informationally (not sure that's a word) correct but all the bars are the same color. If I try to ass a series, each bar shows up as a different color but now each category has 27 bars in it (actually, it has one really thin bar and room for 26 more that are not showing.)
So, my question is, can I have the colors of the individual bars be different for each category without having to use a series? I know I can use a SWITCH Statement and assign a different color to each value, but that isn't a viable solution as the categories could change and new ones could show up later.
Oh, in case the information is relevant: I am building the report in Visual Studio 2008.

Hi Lesea, Virtex4 is not supported by Soft Error Mitigation (SEM) Core, and I need to protect the Virtex4 LX25 FPGA by simple scrubbing. The configuration management engine I designed is the same as that in Correcting Single-Event Upsets in Virtex-4 FPGA Configuration Memory. I also do the fault injection experiment, and the configuration management engine can correct the faults in the Virtex4 LX25 FPGA.
On my board: digital signal A---->encode---->D/A---->A/D---->decode---->digital signal B
When I don't scrubbing the FPGA, the signal B is always the same as the signal A, so I think my board and the software in the FPGA operate well. When I scrubbing the FPGA too frequently, the signal B is not always the same as signal A(I only scrubbing the DSP, IOB, CLK, and CLB logic and I shield the LUT RAM and SRL16 logic). So I think the problem is caused by my configuration management engine.
I also find that the time between two scrubbing process can not be too short. For instance, if I delay only several clks(2.3825MHz) before the next scrubbing process, the signal B is not always the same as the signal A. But if I delay 0.1s, 1s or 10s before the next scrubbing process, the signal B is always the same as the signal A. So how can I solve the problem? I can do experiment to find the minimal time between the two scrubbing process that have no influence on my software. I want to know what causes this problem. Thank you:)

A general question about JPGs, color profiles and the web.

(Didn't get much help in the PS forum, so I'm gonna try this here.)
I save a website background image in Photoshop with its color profile (in this instance, Adobe RGB 1998).
When I view the image in IE (latest), it looks the same as it did in PS.
When I view it in Firefox (latest), it comes out darker.
I'm guessing this has something to do with one of the two browsers taking the color profile into account, and the other not.
What is everyone's solution to this problem? Should I not be including color profiles with my JPGs? And if that isn't the problem (ie, I should keep doing it), which is the color profile I should be using in RGB?
I keep hopping between Adobe RGB (1998) and sRGB 2.1 and can't decide which one to adopt once and for all.
Thanks.

You are correct. The colors differ from IE to FF because FF and Safari use the color profiles found in your images.
You might like the discussion found on Usability Post: http://www.usabilitypost.com/2008/07/30/photoshop-color-profiles-for-web-images/
I've been using sRGB 2.1 for a few years and have had no major issues with it.

Question about "Native ISO" and Color Grading in PP

I have a question about "Native ISO" in the real world and how it relates to color grading. I was shooting 35mm film before all these digital cameras became flat-out amazing practically overnight. Then the goal was always to shoot with the lowest ISO possible to achieve the least amount of grain (unless you were making an artistic decision to get that look). If I was shooting outside plus had a nice lighting package I'd shoot 5201/50 ASA (Daylight) and 5212/100 ASA (Tungsten) 99 times out of 100.
I've recently been shooting a lot with the Blackmagic 4K and have read that its "Native ISO" is 400. Because of my film background this seems counter-intuitive. Yesterday I was shooting for a client and had the camera at an f16 with a 200 ISO. Because of what I'd read, I was tempted stop down to an f22 and change my ISO to 400... but the "little film voice in my head" just wouldn't let me do it. It kept telling me "Higher ISO means more noise... stay at 200 and you will get a cleaner image".
So how does it work with "Native ISO"? Should I really shoot at a 400 ISO every chance I get in order to capture the best image for how the camera is calibrated? Will it really give me more latitude when color grading? Or would I still get a cleaner image staying at ISO 200? I've Googled around quite, but haven't found any articles that answer specifically this question. Would love to hear from someone who knows a bit more on the subject or has a link that could point me in the right direction.
Thanks much.

Hey, shooter ... yea, interesting discussion and always nice to learn. Great pic, too!
jamesp2 ...
Great answer. I've followed quite a bit of the discussion about the BM cams as well, one does feel a need to check out the possibilities for that next beastie one will need to acquire. But ... which one?
I've always been a bit of a hard-case about testing testing testing. For instance, what happens with dome down or use of a flat diffuser vs. dome in the up position in metering? Back in the film days, we had our own lab and did our own printing as well as the um ... difficult images ... from other studios. I needed to know how to get exactly the same diffuse highlight no matter whether it was a "standard" light 3:1 studio shot, or a near-profile with no fill that needs dark shadows. I tested & burned through boxes of medium-format polaroid & 120 film and a lot of color paper. Finding? To get the same print time no matter the contrast or lighting style, needed to be metered either with the flat disc (Minolta) or dome-down (Sekonic) and held at the highlight-location pointed at the main light source. I could meter and nail the exposure every time. Ahh no, insist so many ... one must have the dome on/up and pointed at the camera! Right. Do that, change the contrast, and see what happens to your diffuse forehead highlight on a densitometer ... and see how your printing exposure times change. Oh, and you've just moved your center-of-exposure up or down on the film's H&D curve, which will also change the way the shadows & highlights print. In truth, though it was subtle, we had realistically no matter latitude for a best-case image with pro neg film as one had with chromes. You could probably get away with being "off" easier, but it still wasn't dead-on.
So wading into video ... oi vey, you may have noticed the things claimed here there & everywhere ... this setting is God's Gift to Humanity but no, it's total crap ... this sensor is totally flawed but someone else is certain it's the finest piece out there. Yes, opinions will be all over ... but ... in film, it was the densitometer. In video, it's the scopes. Truth. And getting to that can be a right pain. I've seen quite a few contradictory comments about using the BM cams in film mode and also at ISO 200. Yours above gives the most ... comforting? ... explanation (for me) because of your reference to your scopes & the waveform patterns. Thank you.
Love to learn ...

Question About Color's and Gradients

Hi all,
I have a question about color swatches and gradients.
I am curious to know, if I have 2 color swatches that I make into a gradient color, is it posible to change the tint of each indivdual color in that gradient and have that applied to the gradient without having to adjust the gradients opacity.
The reason that I'm asking this is because in creating a project I found that the colors that I chose for to make my gradient from my swatches were to dark, and while I can adjust each one's tint to my liking (if the object they were applied to was going to be a solid color) but that doesn't seem to apply to the overall gradient.
I hope that makes sense, I know that this was something that was able to be accomplished in quark and was wondering if I can do something similar.

If you double click your gradient swatch (after adding it to the swatches)
Then click a colour stop in the gradient, and then change the drop down menu to CMYK (or rgb)
And you can alter the percentages there. It's not much use for spot colours but it's a start.
But making tint swatches would be a good start anyway.
At least then when you double click the gradient (in the swatches) to edit it you can choose from CMYK, RGB, LAB, or Swatches and adjust each colour stop to your liking.

A question about Graphics repaint

hi all. I met a question about Graphics repaint
I create mypane class extends JPane .
Now I write a function to keep drawing a char at Screen when i resize my applet.
the function code :
bDrawChrToScr(Graphics2D bgr, char Chr,int iX,int iY,int iX1,int iY1)
bgr.setColor(Color.black);
bgr.fillRect(iX,iY,iX1,iY);
bgr.setColor(Color.red);
bgr.drawString(String.valueOf(Chr),iWidth,iHeight);
bgr=thispane.getGraphics();
and i call this function in paintcomponent .Now when i resize my applet ,i find it not work as my hope.
the screen flash two. First it draw this char but sencond it erase it.Why? Thanks

The super.paintComponent(g) method causes the default painting to occur - overriding you bDrawChrToScr() method. Therefore, change paintComponent() method to:
super.paintComponent(g);
bDrawChrToScr(...);

Question about drawLine()

hi all , i just start to learn java, i need help, this almost kill me.....
condition:
a click in the drawing panel indicates the starting point of the line. As the
mouse is moved a line appears between the starting point and the current position of the
mouse. When the mouse is clicked again, the line is frozen in its current position.
my code :
first i create a Line class:
class Line extends Figure {
public Line( int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2 ){
super(x1, y1, x2-x1, y2-y1 ) ;
public void paint(Graphics g) {
super.paint(g);
Dimension size = getSize() ;
g.setColor(Color.blue);
g.drawLine ( 0, 0, size.width-1, size.height-1) ;
then
class DrawingPanel extends JPanel
implements MouseListener,MouseMotionListener, Constants {
static String s ="Circle";
int x1,y1,x2,y2;
DrawingPanel(){
super();
addMouseListener( this );
addMouseMotionListener(this);
public void setMode(String s){
this.s = s;
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
Point at = e.getPoint();
if (s.equals("Line")){
x1=at.x;
y1=at.y;
public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) {
if( s.equals("Line")){
x2=e.getX();
y2=e.getY();
this.add (new Line(x1,y1,x2,y2));
well , this is part of my code , it do work, but not exactly what i want..

Some questions about Muse

First of all, I would like to say that I am very impressed with how well Muse works and how easy it was to create a website that satisfies me. Before I started a daily updated website I thought I would encounter many problems I will not be able to solve. I have only had a few minor issues which I would like to share with you.
The most problems I have with a horizontal layouts (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/dig-t-r-3-cylindrowy-silnik-nissana-o-wadze-40-kg-i-mocy-400- km.html). Marking and copying of a text is possible only on the last (top) layer of a document. The same situation is with widgets or anything connected with rollover state - it does not work. In the above example it would be perfect to use a composition/tooltip widget on the first page. Unfortunately, you cannot even move the cursor into it.
It would be helpful to have an option of rolling a mouse to an anchor (like in here http://www.play.pl/super-smartfony/lg-nexus-5.html and here http://www.thepetedesign.com/demos/onepage_scroll_demo.html). I mean any action of a mouse wheel would make a move to another anchor/screen. It would make navigation of my site very easy.
Is it possible to create a widget with a function next anchor/previous anchor? Currently, in the menu every button must be connected to a different anchor for the menu to be functional.
A question about Adobe Muse. Is it possible to create panels in different columns? It would make it easier to go through all the sophisticated program functions.
The hits from Facebook have sometimes very long links, eg.
(http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/mclaren-p1-nowy-krol-nurburgring.html?fb_action_ids=143235557 3667782&fb_action_types=og.likes&fb_source=aggregation&fb_aggregation_id=288381481237582). If such a link is activated, the anchors in the menu do not work on any page. I mean the backlight of an active state, which helps the user to find out where on page they currently are. The problem also occurs when in the name of a html file polish fonts exist. And sometimes the dots does not work without any reason, mostly in the main page, sometimes in the cooperation page either (http://www.leftlane.pl/wspolpraca/). In the first case (on main page), I do not know why. I have checked if they did not drop into a state button by accident, moved them among the layers, numbered them from scratch and it did not help. In the cooperation page, the first anchor does not work if it is in Y axle set at 0. If I move it right direction- everything is ok.
The text frame with background fill does not change text color in overlay state (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/nowe-mini-krolestwo-silnikow-3-cylindrowych.html). I mean a source button at the beginning of every text. I would like a dark text and a light layer in a rollover, but the text after export and moving cursor into it does not change color for some reason.
I was not sure whether to keep everything (whole website) in one Muse file (but I may be mistaken?). I have decided to divide it into months. Everyone is in a different Muse file. If something goes wrong, I will not have any trouble with an upload of a whole site, which is going to get bigger and bigger.
The problem is that every file has two master pages. Everything works well up to the moment when I realize how many times I have to make changes in upper menu when I need to add something there. I have already 5 files, every with 2 masters. Is there any way to solve this problem? Maybe something to do with Business Catalyst, where I could connect a menu to every subpage independently, deleting it from Muse file? Doing so I would be able to edit it everywhere from one place. It would make my work much easier, but I have no idea jendak how to do it.
The comments Disqus do not load, especially at horizontal layouts (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/2014-infiniti-q50-eau-rouge-concept.html). I have exchanged some mails and screenshots with Disqus help. I have sent them a screenshot where the comments are not loaded, because they almost never load. They have replied that it works at their place even with attached screenshot. I have a hard time to discuss it, because it does not work with me and with my friends either. Maybe you could fix it? I would not like to end up with awful facebook comments ;). The problem is with Firefox on PC and Mac. Chrome, Safari and Opera work ok.
YouTube movie level layouts do not work well with IE11 and Safari 7 (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/wypadki-drogowe--004.html). The background should roll left, but in the above mentioned browsers it jumps up. Moreover the scrolling with menu dots is not fluent on Firefox, but I guess it is due to Firefox issues? The same layout but in vertical version rolls fluently in Firefox (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/polskie-wypadki--005.html).
Now, viewing the website on new smartphones and tablets. I know it is not a mobile/tablet layout, but I tried to make it possible to be used on mobile hardware with HD (1280) display. I mean most of all horizontal layouts (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/2015-hyundai-genesis.html), where If we want to roll left, we need to roll down. Is there a way to make it possible to move the finger the direction in which the layout goes?
On Android phones (Nexus 4, Android 4.4.2, Chrome 32) the fade away background effect does not work, although I have spent a lot of time over it (http://www.leftlane.pl/lut14/koniec-produkcji-elektrycznego-renault-fluence-ze!.html). It is ok on PC, but on the phone it does not look good. A whole picture moves from a lower layer instead of an edge which spoils everything.
This layout does not look good on Android (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/nowe-mini-krolestwo-silnikow-3-cylindrowych.html#a07). The background does not fill the whole width of a page. There are also problems with a photo gallery, where full screen pictures should fill more of a screen.
Is it possible to make an option of scroll effects/motions for a fullscreen slideshow widget thumbnails (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/2014-chevrolet-ss%2c-rodzinny-sedan-z-415-konnym-v8.html#a06)? It would help me with designing layouts. Currently, it can go from a bottom of a page at x1 speed or emerge (like in this layout) by changing opacity. Something more will be needed, I suppose.
Sometimes the pictures from gallery (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/2014-chevrolet-ss%2c-rodzinny-sedan-z-415-konnym-v8.html#a06 download very slowly. The website is hosted at Business Catalyst. I cannot state when exactly it happens, most of the time it works ok.
I really like layouts like this (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/2014-chevrolet-ss%2c-rodzinny-sedan-z-415-konnym-v8.html#a03). On the top is a description and a main text, and the picture is a filled object with a hold set at the bottom edge. That is why there is a nice effect of a filling a whole screen- nevertheless the resolution that is set. It works perfect on PC, but on Android the picture goes beyond the screen. You can do something about it?
In horizontal layouts (http://www.leftlane.pl/sty14/dig-t-r-3-cylindrowy-silnik-nissana-o-wadze-40-kg-i-mocy-400- km.html) holding of a filling object does not work. Everything is always held to upper edge of a screen regardless the settings. Possibility of holding the picture to the bottom edge or center would make my work much easier.
According to UE regulations we have to inform about the cookies. I do not know how to do it in Muse. I mean, when the message shows up one time and is accepted, there would be no need to show it again and again during another visit on the website. Is there any way to do it? Is there any widget for it maybe?
The YouTube widget sometimes changes size just like that. It is so when the miniature of the movie does not load, and the widget is set to stroke (in our case 4 pixels, rounded to 1 pixel). As I remember ( in case of a load error) it extends for 8 pixels wide.
Last but not least - we use the cheapest hosting plan in Business Catalyst. The monthly bandwidth is enough, although we have a lot of pictures and we worried about it at first. Yet we are running out of the disk storage very quickly. We have used more than a half of a 1 GB after a month. We do not want to change BC for a different one, because we like the way it is connected with Muse. But we do not want to buy the most expensive package - but only this one has more disk space. We do not need any other of these functions and it would devastate our budget. Do we have any other option?
I’m using Adobe Muse 7.2 on OS X 10.9.1.
and I'm sending Muse file to <[email protected]>

Unfortunatley, there is no way to get a code view in Muse. I know quite a few people requested it in the previous forum, but not really sure where that ended up. Also, you may not want to bring the html into DW unless you only have 1 or 2 small changes 2 make. Two reasons. First, it isnt backwards compatible, so if you are planning on updating that site in Muse, you will need to make those changes in DW everytime you update. Second, by all accounts the HTML that Muse puts out is not pretty or easy to work with. Unlike you, I am code averse, but there was a lenghty discussion on the previous forum on this topic. I know they were striving to make it better with every release, just not sure where it is at this point.
Dont think I am reading that second question right, but there was a ton of info on that old site. You may want to take a look there, people posted a ton of great unique solutions, so it worth a look.

Question about the programming of a legend

Hello everybody,
I have a question about the programming of a waveform's legend. I
already asked here in this forum about the legend programming (03)
months ago.
I went satisfied but I ve just noticed that this code
(See Code old_legend_test.llb with main.vi as main function) operates a
little different from my expectances.
Therefore I have a new question and I want to know if it
is possible by labview programming to plot and show, on a waveform
chart, a signal with activ plot superior to zero (0) without to be
obliged to plot and show a signal with activ plot equal to zero (0) or
inferior to the desired activ plot.
I give you an example
of what I m meaning. I have by example 4 signals (Signal 0, 1, 2 and 3)
and each signal corresponds respectively to a channel (Chan1, Chan2,
Chan3, Chan4). I want to control the legend (activ plot, plot name and
plot color) programmatically. Is it possible with labview to plot signal
1 or 2 or 3 or (1, 3) or (2,3) or (1,2,3) or other possible combination
without to active the signal with the corresponding activ plot zero
(0)?
Let see the labview attached data
(new_legend_test.llb with main.vi as main function). When I try to
control the input selected values again I get them back but I don't
understand why they have no effect on the legend of my waveform chart.
Could somebody explain me what I m doing wrong or show me how to get a
correct legend with desired plots? Thank by advance for your assistance.
N.B.

Hi
princejack,
Thanks for
posting on National Instruments forum.
The behavior
you have is completely normal. You can control the number of row displayed in
the legend and this rows are linked to the data you send to your graph. Thus,
if you have 3 arrays of data, let say chan1, chan2 and chan3, you can choose
which data you want to display in your graph using the property node (Active
plot and visible). But for the legend as you send 3 plots there is an array of
the plot name [chan1, chan2, chan3] and you can display 0, 1, 2 or 3 rows of
this array but you cannot control the order in this array! So, to be able to
change this array you have to only send data you need to you graph. I'm not
sure my explanations are clear so I have implemented a simple example doing
that.

A question about some of the features

I have Vista so therefore am unable to use the trial version of photoshop elements. Before I go ahead and purchase the software, I had a few questions about its features.
I'll mainly be using photoshop to create digital scrapbooks. I know that photoshop comes equipped with themes and images, but I would like to know if I can use my own backgrounds and images. If I am able to use my own backgrounds, can they tile?
Another thing I would like to know is if I can create my own projects with custom dimensions.
Lastly, I'll be using photoshop to sprite. Is elements well suited for spriting? More specifically, does it have a color selection/replacement tool?

I use PSE for digital scrapbooking. Instead of using the "built in"
creations and albums, just create your own PSD files with layers of
whatever images/embellishments/background papers you want. You can
specify whatever size of creation you want when you create your PSD file
(you only have the choice of certain sizes when you use the built in
stuff).
Not sure about what you mean about making your backgrounds tile, but I
think it is possible. You can take a "background" paper, do a selection,
and then define a pattern and fill it. Or, if you mean layer your
background papers - yes you can do that too. (Here is my online
scrapbook pages, all of which were done in PSE 4 or 5:

You can select by color (using the magic wand tool) and you can replace
color, but it may not work exactly as you expect. (I also don't know
what spriting is.) But, many people just use a hue/saturation adjustment
layer to change colors.
