Save a custom gradient map

I can't figure out how to save a custom gradient map using the gradient map tool(image>adjustments>gradient map).
So that I can use it on other images. Mac/CS6. I have tried countless times, but can't figure it out. What seems like it should work doesn't I can never find/load the custom gradient map I create.?

Select the Gradient tool from behind the Paint Bucket.
Click on the gradient in the Options bar to open the editor
Select any of the current presets to use as a template.
Edit to make your new preset.
Click on New and give it a name
Click on Save (if you want your gradient to load next time you open Photoshop)
Your new gradient will now be available from the drop down in the Gradient Map command.

  • Load or import custom style mapping in link options – is that possible somehow?

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm working with Instructions for Use and Technical Manual documents in InDesign. I'm constantly fine-tuning our templates, and now I have to refresh them again, because of a brand refresh. I'm using the Custom Style Mapping in the Link Options panel a lot, because it helps us to copy the text from older documents to the new ones with the right formatting, with less effort. The only thing I miss is the “Load/Import Custom Style Mapping” option from this panel.
    Do you know if there’s any options to export/import/load these mappings somehow from one document to another? Is it possible to write a script for that? I find this part of InDesign quite unattached, it seems to me (based on my search) that no other people are using it. I feel lonely, help me here!
    (I have created many new mappings in an older document, and I’d like to be able to use them in the new templates as well, but I can only do that if I map the styles again. And it’s quite time consuming. Maybe I'm just using too many paragraph styles, I have no idea – this could be another question: what is too much when it comes to styles...)
    Thanks a lot,
    Zita

    Sync is not intended to be used as a backup service like you are talking about, but it will work as long as you save the Recovery Key, as Jefferson mentioned (you also need your Sync Username ''[email address you used]'' and your account Password).
    Mozilla has just started working a new "cloud service" that is code named '''PiCL''' for "Profile in CLoud", which I am expecting will be a lot easier to use and might allow the user to access their bookmarks and other data from the internet without adding a "borrowed" PC to your Sync account.

  • CS4 Custom Gradient

    Has anyone else seen this? In CS4 Extended, when I create a custom gradient the dialog box OK & Cancel buttons become inactive & there is no way to get out of the dialog (and save the new gradient without saving to disk -- I just want it for this project, not saved, just to use).
    Seems consistent -- don't know if it's a CS4 bug or just my system. I'd love to know if others can create custom gradients or not.

    Just checked by the way & this only happens after a new gradient is created. When the dialog is first opened, before creating the new gradient, it closes just fine, but once there's an new gradient the buttons become inoperative...

  • Gradient Maps doesn't work properly when editing a photo from Lightroom

    When I open a file in photoshop to edit and apply a gradient map to the image, it works fine. However, when I open an image from Lightroom (right click image, EDIT IN Photoshop) and apply the exact same adjustment layer, NOTHING HAPPENS. It's the strangest thing and for the life of me, I can't figure out what I'm doing different! As far as I can tell, the only difference is that the image from Lightroom is in 16 bit ... but when I change it to 8, still nothing happens.
    My process: I apply a pastel gradeient on top of the image (preset: brown, tan, beige) and choose the "Pin Light" blending mode. Normally (as in opening an image outside of Lightroom), this gives my picture the desired effect. But when I open the image from Lightroom and apply the exact same gradient map, nothing happens. If I shift the color within the selector in the map window, I can eventually get the gradient map to reveal itself and the picture to show different colors, but ONLY if I move the color selection to the more saturated end and away from where I actually need it to be.
    My setup: I'm working on an iMac, OS X > Lightroom 5 > Photoshop CS5. I'm clicking on DNG pictures within Lightroom and then selecting EDIT IN Photoshop > then working within photoshop.
    Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated! Thank you.

    Why not keep things simple and create a shortcut on the user's machine that uses this target command:
    \\SRV2\d$\dir1\subdir1\subdir2
    Simply because dir and subdirs are no constants.
    Just imagin you have a webpage that looks like this :
    Proj. #   Custommer    directory                                                bunch-of-other-stuff
    4538      Microsoft        \\SRV2\Big_contracts\US\2014\software   etc
    4539      Nokia             \\SRV3\Prototypes\EU\2012\hardware      etc
    4540      So-else          \\SRV3\Big_contracts\EU\2013\software    etc
    Instead of the full path you have a small folder icon (to save space). And clicking on this icon will bring you directly to said path.
    It was extremely convenient, very user-friendly. And it has been working for over a decade, and today my users are frowning...
    I think you are pushing psexec.exe beyond its limits.
    No, it's working perfectly on Win XP. I just find it too sad that it no longer works on Win 7. I view this as a regression.
     When you run it the way you do it you actually do open a further Explorer process but it remains invisible to you because it runs in the background.
    No, the user does get a new explorer windows that pops to the foreground. The
    only trouble is that it opens in "My Documents".
    Of course I could (try and...) teach them to right-click, copy the link, paste it in an explorer and so on, but they are going to hate me.
    Thank you

  • Export Custom Attribute Mapping

    Hello Gurus!
    I'm migrating a xMII 11.5 project to MII 12.1 and the migration tool was fine on creating the Custom Attributes and Custom Attribute Mapping. However, what I need now is to export Custom Attribute and Custom Attribute Mapping from MII 12.1 DEV to QAS and PRD.
    My question is: When exporting Custom Attributes from Configurations menu, it will export Custom Attribute Mapping too? How can I export and import Custom Attribute Mapping from DEV to QAS and PRD?
    Thanks

    Manoel,
    have you tried the following:
    - open System Management / Configurations
    - unmark the "Select All" and only mark the "Custom Attributes"
    - click export and save the zip file
    The exported zip file should include all the settings. In your follow up systems QAS and PRD you can import the zip file.

  • How can I save to the same map every time when printing pdfs?

    How can I save to the same map every time when printing pdfs?
    Finder points to the document map even when I chose a different map recently.
    I often print series of pdfs from the print dialog box, I'd like to choose the map to save to and then have all subsequent pdf prints automatically directed to the same map until I decide otherwise.

    that link seems to be broken right now:

  • Can't save any custom workspaces AE CS6? (recently upgraded to OSX 10.9 rMBP)

    Hello -
    since transferring my CS6 across to my new laptop running 10.9 -
    I can't save any custom workspaces... it's driving me crazy having to move everything around every time i restart AE.
    - I arrange the workspace and save it as a custom name - this appears in the menu.
    *However* - upon restart of AE - this custom name is no longer there, and the workspace is once again, an old workspace I had, with windows everywhere.
    - I can reset STANDARD workspace - but even then - when I change to another workspace, then change back to STANDARD again, it reverts to the older, messsy version of standard workspace i had...
    so there's some issue with saving for me....
    - I checked 'get info' to see that my workspace related preferences in the library folder had read/write access and even changed that to everyone has access...
    After doing this, I got this error below, when resetting STANDARD workspace, saving project, then switching to another workspace - and then switchng back to STANDARD...
    it still brought up the messy workspace version, not my newer reset version, and gave this message:
    "After Effectswarning: Error parsing properties list from file ".......Preferences/Adobe/After Effects/11.0/ModifiedWorkspaces/UserWorkspace11.xml"
    (I"ve also repaired permissions with Disk Utility ( there were a lot needing repair, but none were explicitly adobe, and didn't solve problem on laptop reboot )
    I've been trying to find a solution online, without success so far...
    Any advice greatly appreciated...
    (And I wonder what this problem might have wider ramifications for my version of AE? )
    thanks!

    I'm having this same problem and yet, I did not migrate my software from one computer to another.
    I downloaded AE CC 2014 off of Adobe's installer.
    I can't get my workspace to be remembered at all. I can make different workspaces, naming each one. But when AE restarts they are all gone.
    Any one else with this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

  • How do I import gradient map settings from one computer to another?

    Quick Question,
    How do I import my gradient map settings from CS3 on my old I mac into my new Mac that uses CS6? Is there a folder somewhere that I can just copy and paste?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    1
    Start Adobe Photoshop CS3 and open an image from your files to which you want to apply a gradient map.
    2
    Select the "Image" menu, point to "Adjustments" and click on "Gradient Map" to open the "Gradient Map" dialog box.
    3
    Choose the gradient you want to use for the gradient map by clicking on the "Gradient Picker" drop-down box. Click on the gradient preset you want to use for the gradient mapping. You will see that in the background the gradient has been applied to your open image.
    4
    Click on the gradient fill that you have chosen to open the "Gradient Editor" if you want to edit the gradient preset. Make any changes in this dialog box and click the "OK" button to close the box and return to your gradient map.
    5
    Set any final options to apply to your gradient map. Check "Dither" under "Gradient Options" to add noise to smooth the bands of your gradient and/or "Reverse" to switch the direction of the gradient map.
    6
    Use the "OK" button to close the "Gradient Map" dialog box and return your image to which the gradient map is now applied.
    Is that what you were asking?
    Hope it helps.

  • How can I save a Custom Workspace in Illustrator CC?

    I believe I've found a major bug in Illustrator CC ...or to put it more aptly...what appears to be an omission. The help topic path that tells how to save a custom workspace in previous versions does not exist in Illustrator CC. Has this option been reconfigured or simply forgotten? Please enlighten me if you have the answer. I'm using a Trial Version.

    You can easily find the location of the new document profiles. When setting up a new document, go to the menu of profiles, then select "Brwose". THis takes you directly to the folder.
    Use your operating system's tools to display that folder in the Windows Navigator.

  • The custom style mapping option text still maintains the word formatting or it shows a style override in the InDesign style - how do I correct this?

    When I tell the custom style mapping option to format a Word style (from an rtf document) with the InDesign style, the text still maintains the word formatting or it shows a style override in the InDesign style. I have a large document that needs to import the styles correctly and I've followed the tutorials exactly however the placed text is still hanging onto the word RTF styles. I want the rtf text to convert to my InDesign styles completely without overrides.

    I actually need the cell styles. That's what sets my font, spacing, and GREP styles.
    I did find the solution today. In the table style or table setup, I needed to set the "Stroke Drawing Order" to "Column Strokes in Front". Even though it was previously set to "Best Joins" and I had no strokes for rows or for the table borders, it just wasn't giving priority to my dotted columns.
    Thanks for your response though!

  • Placing Word docs with custom style mapping

    I am trying to place Word 2007 docs in InDesign CS3 using custom style mapping.
    When I place the Word doc, InDesign creates a whole new set of styles with the correctly mapped new names but with the Word style definition. It records no name conflicts with the my already existing styles of the same names. Each of the new styles has the disc icon next to it, showing it was imported.
    If I delete each of the styles I can replace it with my original InDesign style, but isn't the point of style mapping to eliminate that step?
    Thanks.

    This issue is now solved in the 6.0.4 update. See the release notes for item #2335625.

  • Example of a custom field mapping?

    Ok, I admit it I am struggling here. I have simplified my example from
    what I actually have.
    I have a table that models a flat hierarchy
    ID | START_DATE | END_DATE | CLASSNAME | FIELD1 | FIELD2 | ...
    one of the objects in my hiearchy (CashFlow) has a field that is in fact
    another object called DatePeriod that contains two fields startDate and
    endDate.
    I understand that what I am trying to do is embed the DatePeriod object
    inside of the larger object when it get's persisted.
    I have the following metadata set-up
    <class name="CashFlow" persistence-capable-superclass="InstrumentFlow">
    <extension vendor-name="kodo" key="table" value="INSTRUMENT_FLOW"/>
    <extension vendor-name="kodo" key="pk-column" value="ID"/>
    <extension vendor-name="kodo" key="class-column" value="none"/>
    <extension vendor-name="kodo" key="lock-column" value="none"/>
    <field name="accrualPeriod" embedded="true"/>
    </class>
    and for my DatePeriod object
    <class name="DatePeriod">
    <extension vendor-name="kodo" key="table" value="INSTRUMENT_FLOW"/>
    <extension vendor-name="kodo" key="pk-column" value="ID"/>
    <extension vendor-name="kodo" key="lock-column" value="none"/>
    <extension vendor-name="kodo" key="class-column" value="none"/>
    <field name="startDate">
    <extension vendor-name="kodo" key="data-column" value="START_DATE"/>
    </field>
    <field name="endDate">
    <extension vendor-name="kodo" key="data-column" value="END_DATE"/>
    </field>
    </class>
    Every time I try to fetch a CashFlow object I get an error as KODO is
    trying to select the column 'ACCRUALPERIODX.'
    What am I doing wrong? Do I need to use a custom field mapping? If so
    where is the documentation to help me write a custom field mapping?
    A second question would be what happens if the DatePeriod object is used
    in a couple of places, I don't want to tie it's persistence to the
    INSTRUMENT_FLOW table.
    All help gratefully received
    Cheers
    Matt

    As you suspect, Kodo 2.x does not support embedded class mappings. Kodo
    3.0 will support embedded mappings.
    In the meantime, you can create a custom mapping, but unfortunately our
    documentation for custom mappings is lacking right now. Given how simple
    your DatePeriod object is, you're probably better off with something
    simpler (and as a bonus, less bound to Kodo):
    Just make your DatePeriod class and the field that holds the DatePeriod
    instance non-persistent. In the class that has the (now non-persistent)
    DatePeriod field, add two new persistent fields for the startDate and
    endDate. Then just use internal logic to construct the DatePeriod from
    the startDate and endDate. You can do this using the
    javax.jdo.InstanceCallbacks methods, or just do the logic in your setter
    and getter methods for the DatePeriod.

  • Anything similar to Gradient Map in InDesign?

    Hi, we're using InDesign CS3, and wondering if there is anything in the new version (or any plugins/techniques) that would more closely match the effect possible when using a gradent map on an image in Photoshop?
    We have a project that uses many historic photos that are black & white. We need to colorize these with a good deal of control (so we can get predictable results, and change easily). We would usually colorize in InDesign by choosing a foreground and background color. Simple enough.
    But I know in Photoshop you achieve this by using a gradient map, and have the option of including more than just 2 colors. The advantage to this is that you can include a black (or very dark version of your 'foreground' color) for the darkest shadows, and/or a white (or light 'background' color) for the lightest highlights, in addition to your 2 typical 'background' and 'foreground' colors. The result, is that these images have the same exact coloration across most of the image, but look much richer and more dynamic with the extra darkness/lightness on the extreme ends.
    So, of course, we could adjust all images in Photoshop as outlined above, but there will be a LOT of images, and there will always be changes to the colors along the way. If we do all in Photoshop, that would mean any change to a color, even if slight, would mean opening/editing/saving all corresponding Photoshop images. Very time-consuming! In InDesign, it's as simple as changing the swatch color for all affected images.
    - Anything new in CS4?
    - Any other way to go about this?
    THANKS!

    Nothing really analagous to gradient map. You can use blending modes like Multiply or Screen, but that's not new.
