Skill testing question - image orientation

I've just begun noticing that the "Orientation:" field in the metadata of certain images in my library is being changed from "landscape" to "portrait" and vice versa. There doesn't appear to be any pattern to the change, random images are being affected thus far. The images that are being affected have been in my library for more than 18 months.
Needless to say, the effect is hardly flattering when a portrait (in this case, my niece at grad) is suddenly expanded horizontally and shrunk vertically to fill a landscape frame.
Has anybody else experienced this? What is the solution?
My master images are still OK but its kind of scary to think that this could happen to my entire libary!!
Thanks
M

I determined that Aperture 3.0.1 had lost all my thumbnails and was doing a disastrous job getting the orientation correct if I went in to an album to view photos. I had Aperture generate thumbnails explicitly by selecting the disoriented thumbnails in an album and then Photos -> Generate Thumbnails; they seem to be correct now.
Now in the process of doing a global Generate Thumbnails which I believe will be fine - of course it's going to chug along for sometime doing this. Can't think of anything I did other than add the update for ProKit recently...

    If you are frustrated about these exam hints, I strongly recommend that you do this before trying practice exams:
    * Study and understand the course material that was supplied by Swinburne
    * Use a search engine to find additional info on course material you don't understand (e.g. Google "java Super class" or "java polymorphism example")
    * Complete all lab tasks and course examples again.

  • Image Orientation/Rotation Problem in Lightroom 3.2 Final

    This is a continuation of my previous post regarding this same problem in 3.2RC. It's still happening in the Final version of Lightroom 3.2.
    THE PROBLEM
    Image orientation is not working properly in Lightroom 3.2. This affects newly imported images and images that were already in my Lightroom database -  and which have been in the database since Version 1.
    Here's a screen capture showing the strange displays I'm seeing in  Lightroom's grid mode:
    Notice the odd angle of the image. When I use the Rotate Photo Left tool, the display looks like this sometimes. After a second or so, it will snap to either a vertical or horizontal orientation by itself but rarely gives me the 90-degree rotation this tool should give. The image may flip 90-degrees or 180-degrees, there's no way to tell.
    When I view the image in Loupe view or on my second monitor, the orientation shown in Grid view does not match that displayed in Loupe Vew. For this particular image, Grid view currently shows it as correctly orientated as a horizontal while Loupe view shows it rotated 90-degrees to the right. Shouldn't they match?
    BACKGROUND
    I never had a problem with image orientation in any preveious version of Lightroom prior to Lightroom 3.2RC and 3.2 Final. So, it seems to be a bug in 3.2. I'm still using the same computer and video card I used with previous versions. My operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium. Both Windows and Lightroom are 64-bit.
    HELP!
    Is anyone else having this problem? How can I solve it?

    The size of the catalogue is almost certainly not at play here.
    FWIW, I recall seeing something like this once a long time ago on a Mac, possibly with Lr 3 beta, or Lr 2.x.  It went away with a restart. It almost looks like a threading issue, where a thread is suspended or preempted and then is lost or disconnected from the main UI thread.
    I recall you can just rotate the image again and it will right itself.
    Adobe fist-line support seem to want to use the number of images in the catalogue as some sort of catch-all.  The problem with this is that most of us can demonstrate that there is little correspondence with the number of image IDs in the database and many reported UI artefacts.
    I'd keep raising this with them, and suggesting that the size of the catalogue is probably not at play here. As a tactic, you can ask what the maximum size of a catalogue should be, and if it is raw images or the number of changes to the images and virtual copies that is the problem, and if this can be verified by second- or third-line support.

  • Random test questions quiz results not working

    I have a project with random test questions. It's published in HTML5...Each time I play the project in preview, the test results are accurate and correct at the end...However after I have published the project to my site, all the random test questions are NOT accurately scored in at the end of the quiz...It's tells me basically I got all the questions wrong, when in fact the on each questions my display is clearly stating it's correct.
    If I move the question out of the random test questions and back into the main project...it is scored correctly, but once it's back in the "pools" area, it is scored incorrectly in the final tally as a random test question...Don't have a clue why this is...it's really been time consuming trying to fix it...and my fortune so far fixing anything to do with Captivate is really low! Buggy! I'm using Captivate 8, so have no idea...
    Anyone have any idea what is going on?

    So obvious I don't know why I didn't think of that. LOL
    Many thanks that works.
    It would appear that the only way to adjust the pause is to add time to the
    slide as I am unable to slide the pause back.  But changing the slide of 3
    secs to 3.1 does work.
    Is there an easy way to do this for ALL slides or do I just have to  do it
    one by one.
    Again many thanks

  • Can we send pre-test score (Pre-test question slide) and post test score (Question slide) both in lms from captivate?

    can we send pre-test score (Pre-test question slide) and post test score (Question slide) both in lms from captivate?

    Pretest score normally is not sent to the LMS. However it is stored in a system variable, you could use JS to send it.

  • Can you lock the background image orientation?

    Hello all
    Is there a way to lock the image orientation? When I turn the iPad, I want the apps to rotate, but I want the background image to stay portrait.
    If not, is there someplace i can suggest the feature?

    No. It will orient along with your view. You can post feedback here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • Indicated Image Orientation is Incorrect

    Hi all:
    Aperture 2.1.1 has begun to incorrectly tag images in the portrait orientation as “Landscape,” even though the images were correctly oriented as portrait during import and when viewing them in the Browser or Full screen mode. Doesn’t matter which camera (Nikon D80, Canon Powershot SD600 or Panasonic DMC-TZ1) I import from.
    Additionally, when viewing the incorrectly tagged images in the Finder window, set to column view, portrait-oriented images correctly oriented in Aperture are incorrectly oriented as landscape in the Finder window. They also open as landscape-oriented images in Preview. If I correctly rotate the image in Preview, then save the file, the Finder correctly displays the image, but the thumbnail in Aperture becomes corrupted: The image orientation in the Browser window remains as portrait, but the image preview has rotated 90 degrees.
    Can’t tell if this occurred since upgrading to Aperture 2.1.1 or Mac OS 10.5.5. Any ideas?

    Thanks for the tip. I did exactly what you suggested and ended up with over 2000 extra versions (sometimes up to six) of my files, some with strangely cropped previews, and files long since deleted. All these extra versions did not include any metadata I added (i.e., keywords, description, byline, city, state, etc.). In some cases the file name reverted back to the original one assigned by the camera(s).
    Meanwhile, rebuilding the database did not solve the incorrect orientation tag issue. All my images are referenced masters. No masters in my database are stored in the Aperture library.
    Thanks for any advice out there.

  • VSTS load test QUESTION : While recording the webPerformanceTest, is it is possible to clear / force to clear cachewithout stopping or closing the IE on recorder?

    VSTS load test QUESTION : While recording the webPerformanceTest, is it is possible to clear / force to clear cache without stopping or closing the IE on recorder?
    I am facing issue, while recording the webtest, our application first time loading any screen calls some requests and 2nd time when browsed the same information if it is available at cache then it will not
    call the requests again.
    How can i force the VSTS to clear cache while recording, so that i can record those requests which gets called at the first time.
    Regards
    SatishK

    Hi SatishK,
    Thanks for your reply.
    >>but my question was while recording (During recording using web test recorder) i want to clear cache.
    Based on your issue,
     I did some research about it,
    but I still find the official document about it. Generally, I know that if we want to clear the web performance test by the
    Cashe Control properties, so I think that it is not possible to clear the cashes when we are recording the web performance.
    If you still want to this feature for web performance test, I suggest you could submit this feature request:

  • CameraRoll & CameraUI image orientation

    Hi,
    I am trying to read the Orientation tag in EXIF image data grabbed with CameraRoll or CameraRollUI using AIR 3.6 on iOS 6.1
    To achieve this, I use this library coded by Christian Cantrell :
    http://blogs.adobe.com/cantrell/archives/2011/10/parsing-exif-data-from-images-on-mobile-d evices.html
    Unfortunantly, it raises an error when I try to parse the Byterray containing the EXIF data :
    var exifInfo:ExifInfo = new ExifInfo( eb );
    TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "<tags level="0th IFD TIFF Tags">
      <tag tag_name="Image width" field_name="ImageWidth" id="0x0100" compressed="J">
        <uncompressed chunky="M" planar="M" ycc="M" />
      ... INSERT BIG CHUNK OF XML HERE ...
    </tags>" to XML.
              at jp.shichiseki.exif::ExifInfo/readIFDs()[/Users/***/Google Drive/AS3/libs/jp/shichiseki/exif/ExifInfo.as:100]
              at jp.shichiseki.exif::ExifInfo()[/Users/***/Google Drive/AS3/libs/jp/shichiseki/exif/ExifInfo.as:63]
    It seems that Air can't cast the data into XML, but it's kind of crazy because I am able to see all the data in the error text (I purposedly truncated it here for not flooding this post) and it's XML valid. I had a look into the ExifInfo class, but it's hard to see where the error comes from.
    I really need to get access to these data, since it's the only way to determine image orientation in iOS. Or is there any native extention thaht I could use to achieve this ?
    Any advice will be welcome as I am stuck on a project for a client because of this.
    Thank you all !

    Hello Frog,
    a very (very) dirty solution could be :
    - use a try...catch...finally block to prevent the error raising
    - in the catch block, parse the error message to get your orientation value (String method, regexp...)
    [code]
    var myExifData:XML;
    try {
         // try to get the exif data
         var exifInfo:ExifInfo = new ExifInfo( eb );
    } catch(err:Error) {
         // fails, but maybe I can get the exif info in the error message...
         myExifData = parseExifError(err.message); // parse the error message to get your orientation info...
    } finally {
        do what I have to do with my image : rotate, scale....
    [/code]
    BTW, PhoneGap is perfectly able to get orientation of an image from the camera roll. So there IS a solution somewhere.
    Maybe you could try to make a native extension ? It's not so hard for little things like that...
    My 2 cents

  • Setting a Conditional Action for Pre-Test questions: Skipping Content Slides

    OK boys and girls, let's see if this is even possible within one course SCO, or if this a multi-SCO solution (which means I'm toast, because we don't have the multi-SCO aggregator)?
    I want to set up a prescriptive pre-test. In my ideal world, answers to each individual question would either enable or disable the content slides connected to the question. If the user passes the pre-test, they could opt to skip the prescriptive stuff and complete the course. If the user fails the pretest, they would have to view the enabled content.
    Is this even possible in a single SCO world?
    Justenuf

    Jim belongs in that pantheon of good guys as well, so many here have pointed me in the right direction and helped me move forward with the capabilities of this software. And, in that spirit - here's my work around for the pretest/post test in a SCORM 1.2 environment:
    Created an entrance slide that allows opting totake the pretest or not - but only allows you to take it once.
    Created one test (take off the question x of x widget) split it and slide the content in between it. In this case, 10 questions with 5 in each set.
    Titled the first set of questions as a PreTest and the second set as a Post Test.
    Set my passing score at 4 correct. (the user only needs to get 4 out 5 on either set correct to pass - and I'm setting up an action that only allows the user to see the questions they missed if they fail the pretest.)
    Created variables for each "pretest" question and set them at 0. Created on Enter advanced actions on each slide following a question that toggled the variable to 1 if the question was answered correctly  if "CpQuizInfoLastSlidepointScored is equal to 1" then "Assign Question<x> with 1"
    Created an On Enter advanced action for each content area slide "Skip #" that allowed prescription:
    "If Question # is equal to 1 or cpQuizInfoPassFail is equal to 1, then Go to Next Slide"
    Only the content connected to the missed questions in the pretest is seen.
    Copied the same On Enter advanced action the Post test questions and renamed it "SkipPost #" that allowed prescription:
    "If Question # is equal to 1 or cpQuizInfoPassFail is equal to 1, then Go to Next Slide"
    Only the questions related to the reviewed content are seen
    The sum total of these activities is the following -
    The user can choose to take the pretest and complete the course by gettiong 4 or 5 questions correct and jump to the exit page.
         If the user takes the pretest and scores lower than 80%, the content for the missed questions is viewed and the user must answer the questions regarding
         that content. The user passes the course when he/she answers the fourth question correctly.
    The user can choose to view the content, take the post test and pass the course by answering 4 of 5 correctly.
    it's running right in preview, in web browser preview and on my LMS previewer, with one navigation error.
          the error: after failing the pretest, taking the prescribed content and anse wering the questions correctly, the course occasionally jumps to the results page
         and s displays a failure message, then freezes in place. it does NOT happen each time, which is why I am cy urrently scurrying back to my happy place to dwell
         on this mystery awhile.

  • Global Object Access Auditing test question

    Hello!
    There's a test question (N4) I'd like to have clearified:
    http://exam.test4actual.com/70-411.pdf
    Yes, D and F will enable auditing with no extra replication traffic, but enabling Global Object Acces Auditing will lead to auditing not only SYSVOL shares but to any others as well (http://blogs.technet.com/b/askds/archive/2011/03/10/global-object-access-auditing-is-magic.aspx)
    - is this replication traffic worth it???
    Thank you in advance,
    Michael

    Hi,
    For this question, the correct answer is DF, but we do not need to use Global Object Acces Auditing policy to audit SYSVOL shares.
    About the replication traffic, please refer to:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb742457.aspx
    Meanwhile, any changes made to SYSVOL are automatically replicated to the other domain controllers in the domain. If the files stored in SYSVOL change frequently, the replication increases the input and output for the volume where SYSVOL is located. For
    example, editing a GPO can potentially force a GPO-level replication. If the volume is also host to other system files, such as the directory database or the pagefile, then the increased input and output for the volume can impact the performance of the server.

  • Image orientation upon importing?

    HI, I am using Photoshop elements 8. I was wondering if anybody knows of an option which controls image orientation during photo import? My situation; I have a large catalogue of photos and I have a canon 40d which I use for my serious photo work and I use an Olympus 6000 tough for play. Just recently when I went to upload my images off of the Olympus point and shoot all of my portrait image when imported are laying on their side or are presented in a landscape style. Now I have to go through manually rotate each image or select groups of images which is very time consuming. I don’t know what happen, elements use to rotate the images to their correct orientation during import. Does anybody know how to solve this?
    Thanks,
    jt

    The photo you posted has the Orientation field in the EXIF metadata set to Horizontal (landscape):
    Image Width                : 3648
    Image Height               : 2736
    Make                       : OLYMPUS IMAGING CORP.
    Camera Model Name          : uT6000,ST6000
    Orientation                : Horizontal (normal)
    So that's why PSE isn't rotating it.  Perhaps there's a setting in your camera you need to enable to have it record the Orientation properly, or perhaps the orientation sensor broke?
    I used Exiftool to examine the EXIF metadata in the photo -- it is the most reliable way of examining all the photo metadata without the "helpful" interpretation and filtering that most programs (like PSE) provide.

  • Image Orientation in Blog and Blog Summary

    Inserted a picture into a blog entry and rotated it 90 deg.
    In the blog summary, on the summaries page, the image reverts to its original orientation.
    Can't see a way to change the image orientation on the summary page, which would be undesirable anyway - don't want to have to edit two pages for every entry.
    Has anyone experienced this problem?
    Are there any solutions?
    Thanks

    I played around with the orientation manually, and found that if I change the orientation, the image would be correctly "orientated' in the lower part of the split viewer, but the actual image would be off by 90 degrees. I then reoriented the image back (sideways view in the bottom file-strip) and the large image would display correctly again, and, the bottom image corrected itself to the normal orientation. So, by changing each sideways image 90 degrees once and then back again, seems to "fix' the issue. Still not sure how I applied this feature.
