Save operation now recorded in the History panel

It used to be that if you stepped back in History and hit Save or Save As, you could step forward again and continue working while not losing any steps. Now with the Save and Save As showing up as history steps, if you step back and Save your then lose all the grayed out steps and thus you lose work. This caught me by surprise, and I lost work. ugh. Am I missing something or does this seem really insane? Aside from duplicating the file or using non-linear history there doesnt seem to be a way around this. If this is what it is than its absolutely horrid. Any thoughts?

There is nothing wrong with my install... my point is just that the new feature of a Save step being recorded in History will cause you to lose work if you are using linear history, I stated that non-linear history avoids this, but that didnt help much when my history steps were annihilated and my work lost while using linear history. I prefer linear, or at least I did. Personally, I can't imagine why I would need Save to be recorded in my history. Naturally, I use Snapshots for comparison as well, and layer comps, but i dislike non-linear history, and find this change immensely frustrating... to each her own I guess. Maybe others will avoid a loss.

How many steps can be recorded in the History panel?

In Photoshop, 20 steps can be recorded in the Histroy panel with the defult setting, and we can change the setting to record more or less steps by choosing "Edit> Preference".
In Lightroom, how many steps can be recorded in the History panel with the defult setting? And how can we change the number of step to be recorded?

I guess since the history is kept in the database (and not only in memory as with PS), there is not so much an issue in limiting them.

Do the History Panel or Command menu record items work in code view?

I am using Dreamweaver CS6 version 12 on a 2.33 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo iMac running OS X 10.6.8.
When I attempt to use the History Panel or the Command menu items "Start Recordings" or "Play Recorded Commands" in code view they do not work. Can these tools be used in code view?

Well, I found Dreamweaver for Windows and Dreamweaver CC (which I assume is Creative Cloud) but I didn't find a Dreamweaver for Mac forum. The other two just didn't seem to be appropriate.
I find the forums difficult to navigate.

How to remove "Blue filter" from multiple images in the History Panel

I am using Lightroom 4.3 on Windows 7 pc. I have a collection with approximately 650 images. I was working in the collection and had all the images selected. Somehow I inadvertently must have hit a keyboard shortcut that effected all the images. All of the images are negatively effected and they now look terrible. When I go to the History Panel, all the images have "blue filter" as their most recent entry. If I select one image and go back to the step before the "blue filter" everything looks fine again. My problem is I have this effect in 650 images. When I try and do the change in one image and then synch to the rest, I don't know what box to check to remove this "blue filter" that has been added to all the images. I know I can do them one by one, but with 650 images, it's a long and tedious process. Any way I can remove the "blue filter" from multiple images in a collection?
Thanks,
Matthew Kraus

If you’ve just done it, then an Undo operation would reverse things on all the images, I think. But if it took you a while to see the problem, then you might have done something to cancel the undoability.
Isn’t Blue Filter a built in LR preset that modifies the HSL settings: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/924/cpsid_92473.html
Open the HSL panel and step back into History on one of the affected images so the effect of the Blue Filter preset has been undone and notice what HSL sliders change, and then if the 650 images DON’T already have any HSL adjustments you should be able to sync JUST the pre-Blue-Filter HSL adjustments (perhaps all zeros) to the other 650 images.

I want to expand the size of the history panel

I just upgraded to v. 34 from v. 17.0.1. In the old version, I could open History as a full panel, and see the sites and dates in chronological order. Now, although I have the "View > By date and site" option selected, I see only the sites. Also, when I try to expand the size of the History panel by pausing the cursor over the edge, the double-arrow icon does nothing.

There is a minimum (min-width: 14em;) and maximum (max-width: 36em;) for the sidebar and you can't drag the resizer icon beyond that limit.
Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.

Does CS5 enable the history panel in code view?

I saw an old thread from last year (http://forums.adobe.com/message/1038491#1038491) where people confirmed that the history panel is only enabled in "design view", and is disabled in "code view". I'm wondering whether that feature has been changed in CS5. Does anybody know?
The reason I'm wondering is I'm trying to create keyboard shortcuts to quickly comment code (either /* */, or //) and remove comments. I know there's a button available on the toolbar that will add a /* */ comment, so getting a keyboard shortcut for that isn't such a big deal, but I'd really like a way to remove comments that's faster than right-clicking on a text selection to bring up the context menu, go down to "Selection >", and click on "Remove Comment". From what I've read, it seems like the best way to make a keyboard shortcut for that would be to select some text and do "Remove Comment" through the context menu, then create a macro/command using the history panel, and finally assign a keyboard shortcut to that command. However, this doesn't seem possible since for me the history panel is disabled when I'm in code view (in Dreamweaver 8).
If anyone has a better solution to my real question, of how to create a keyboard shortcut to remove comments from code, I'd be very grateful to hear it!

Wow, I didn't even realize that button to remove coding was there. I was looking at the /* */ button on the PHP tab of the Insert toolbar, and trying to find another button there that would remove comments, and didn't realize there already was one on the coding toolbar. That's perfect, thanks a lot! And thank you also for the info on the CS5 history panel.

Is it possible to save/export Messages created in the Discussions Panel?

Is there a way to save/export messaegs created in the discussions panel? For example, when saving a report to PDF or Excel, is it possible to include the discussion messages? Is there a way to query the Discussion Messages so that they could appear on a report?

You can't query for discussions directly in a report. In the CMS database this information in a binary format.
You would have to either use the Query Builder tool or write a program using the SDK to get to it. The query you would run looks something like this:
Select *
from CI_INFOOBJECTS
where SI_PARENTID = (SI_ID of the report the discussion is attached to)
and SI_HIDDEN_OBJECT = 1
and SI_KIND = 'DISCUSSIONS'

Restore the entire device from the most recent backup (hopefully created prior to erasing the converstation history). This will put the ENTIRE device back exactly as it was when the backup was created.

Check Settings > General > Restrictions, and check out Contacts toward the bottom under the privacy restrictions.
That sounds like the probable cause you cannot add contacts.
Regarding the iCloud behavior, that sounds like it got huge (35,000) because of incorporating other contacts (from social media, perhaps). Also contacts sync has nothing to do with iCloud behavior. The whole idea of keeping your contacts in the cloud is that once you change them on one device, they change everywhere. Specific syncs are not relevant.

I just updated to 25.0 and I noticed the History drop down menu has been simplified and Back, Forward and Home are now gone. Can these be restored?

I am running on a Mac (Lion) with FF 25.0. I typically hide the toolbar because I like to max out my screen space without having to go into full screen mode. So I typically use a custom keyboard command to navigate forward and back during my browser session, but occasionally the keyboard command fails and the page is unresponsive. In the past all I had to do was go up to the History drop down menu and choose "Back" or "Forward". I would also use the "Home" selection to get back to my homepage. But ever since I updated to 25.0 those selection are now gone from the History menu.
Is there any way to restore them? And are they gone for all users (was this a global change) or are one of my add-ons simply not playing nice and causing this problem? TIA!

On WinXP Back, Forward, and Home was last in the Firefox 3.6 versions and disappeared as of Firefox 4.0 - and hasn't been seen since.
Doesn't the Mac OSX versions of Firefox have Back and Forward in the context menu (right-click), as Windows and Linux versions do?

How do I make the "Find Panel" (Ctrl-F) more ME friendly?

After quickly resolving and only recently glitch in an older Firefox version (17.0.1) concerning stubborn restore of last sessions upon start up, using now version 27.0.1, I am now frustrated with the Find Panel (using Ctrl-F). How do I revert the Find Panel to older (not to mention MORE PRACTICAL!) version? If a visualization is actually necessary, I found a link that may be helpful: http://s11.postimg.org/qsc5piwr7/ff_find.png .
Focusing ONLY on the Find Panel, the version I am looking for is on
the top, while the newer (not to mention INFERIOR!) version can be
found on the bottom.
If I have to get another version, please let it also be able to use the Norton Toolbar, but I would much rather be given the instructions on how to simply edit the version I have now (27.0.1) so as to change only the Find Panel as I described above.
If you noticed, I'm getting super frustrated and also very picky, but as things Mozilla, Google, etc. go on, making what I suppose they call "progress," they all start to diminish in their functions. I'm not looking for a special looking internet browser, but one that works, user friendly, ME friendly. If Firefox has a few bugs to work out, work `em out, but for heaven's sake, stop altering the orientation of tools in the browser, rendering it far less practical than its wiser ancestral versions. I digress though . . .
I'm using Firefox 27.0.1, extremely loathe the Find Panel (Ctrl-F), how can I switch to an older and
better Find Panel (while at the same time also maintianing compatibility for Norton Toolbar)?

The Alt+N and Alt+P keyboard shortcuts no longer work for finding the next and previous occurrence, respectively. You can use F3 or Ctrl+G and Shift+F3 or Ctrl+Shift+G, respectively.
If you want the find bar to remain open when switching tabs, you can use the FindBar Tweak add-on.

Why is the History Brush only painting white on my picture instead of the colors from my text file?

I am working on a project for my online class and am having difficulties with the History Brush. Note that both files are identical in size etc.
1. I created a color text file and saved it with a specific name.
2. I copied an existing photo from iPhoto, as I couldn't import into PhotoShop, and pasted it in a new file. I then removed the white background layer and then saved it with its now specific name and closed the file.
3. I re-opened the Color Text File.
4. I then re-opended my photo.
5. I performed a "Select All" from the menu bar of my active Photo then selected Edit - Copy and then closed my Photo file.
6. From my Color Text File I selected Edit and then Paste from the menu bar.
7. I selected Layer and Flatten Image from the menu bar.
8. I right clicked the background image from the Layers Panel and created a snapshot (which is my photo)
9. I selected the History brush and verified that this also displayed in the gray box associated with the Color Text file within the History Panel.
10. I verified that my photo image was displayed in my work area.
11. I start to fill the photo with my History Brush and the only color I get is White.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

You seem to think that a History State equals a Layer. That couldn't be farther from the truth.

Now the document area should display the photo, at this point we are suppose to paint the photo with 1 stroke. The painted colors would be that from the Tie-Dye image…
That's not clearly phrased, but it sounds totally wrong. Again, a History State will not just show you what you just pasted, but your entire image, with ALL its layers.
Normally, to use the History Brush one goes back one step in the History Panel AFTER you have created your snapshot, so that you'll be selectively applying the changes to your image as it was before the filter. Here's an example:
You've finished editing an image. Fine. Now you apply an Unsharp Mask filter (to the whole image, of course) and immediately create your Snapshot.
Now you step back in the History Panel to the state BEFORE you applied the sharpening. You make sure your History Brush is targeting the sharpened Snapshot, but you start painting on the History State BEFORE you applied the sharpening.
Now you can start applying selective sharpening with your History Brush in whatever blending mode you wish. For selective sharpening, the History Brush in Luminosity blending mode gives you fantastic results.
Just remember: History States are not like layers at all.
In my opinion that's a lousy instructor who would make you use the Clipboard to illustrate the use of the History Brush. … but that's just me.

User presets from history panel

Hi there
I lost my hard drive and have reinstalled LR4 and relocated files to the external hard drive. I can see the user presets I used in the history panel but not in the User presets menu, is there any way to 'find' these to use again. I have looked but cannot find my User Presets anywhere.
Thanks
Nat

Thank you, that was the problem. They were checked as stored with catalog in LR5, but not in LR6. Once I clicked the checkbox in LR6, I found all my export user presets. Now I assume that if I subsequently uncheck that box, LR6 will create a unique file to house those presets? Does it matter if they are or are not in the catalog? I've got a decent grasp of LR's functionality, but wasn't aware of this and don't know if there are pluses or minuses with either approach...

ORA-01403 no_data_found when saving the record in the custom form

My custom form has 2 windows with 3 blocks. The first window has the BATCH block while the second window contains the HEADERS and LINES blocks. User go to first window, enter the batch info and save the record with no issue. Now user go to second window, enter the header info and save. Now we have the ORA-01403 no_data_found error. My custom form only have few SQLs and I put exception blocks on all of them but no_data_found still shows.
Besides explicitly-used SQL statements, I wonder where else may have triggered the NO_DATA_FOUND error?
Thanks, Mike.

Hi!
If an exception is raised in forms and an exception handler
tries to show the dbms_error_text function, you will get
the ORA-01403 no_data_found message too, if there is no database error.
