Synchronizing workflow options?

I frequently open multiple images at a time in ACR. I had thought that selecting all images and then setting workflow options would set the selected workflow options for all of the images, but it doesn't.
The synchronize option allows you to select any of the image quality/color setting to sync, but not the workflow options.
If you have a bunch of images in the filmstrip view in ACR , do you have to go through each one at a time to select the workflow options? Is there a way to assign them all at once?
Thanks,
Joe.

I am using ACR 3.7 on windows. There are two different camera models involved in the images I have in ACR. Could that cause the workflow options to only work on a one-to-one basis rather than on the entire selection?
ACR does not seem to be setting workflow options by camera model as the difference in output results varied even within camera models. However, I guess it could be that the presence of two camera models within the selection could force the need to select workflow options individually for each image.

  • Smart Object - How do I keep ACR from changing workflow options?

    Open image in Photoshop as a Smart Object from Lightroom.
    Double-click to change the RAW characteristics.
    When I return to Photoshop, my image has been changed...  Color space is changed, bit depth is changed, size is changed........
    I believe I know WHAT is doing it - the Workflow Options in ACR are set.  HOW DO I TURN THEM OFF?
    I can't find a reset, and I can't get it to stop messing with the image.  I've SPECIFICALLY UNCLICKED the "Resize to Fit", but
    it STILL takes my 2600x3300 pixel image and returns it as 1824x2321 pixels.......
    Where and how do I reset this thing?

    I ABSOLUTELY agree......  That's exactly, I believe, how it's SUPPOSED to work.
    Except that mine didn't.
    I opened a 12.2 MP RAW file. 
    And made absolutely no changes to the workflow uptions at the time of opening.
    But instead of "Image Sizing" saying "Default 12.2 MP", it said "3.6MP"
    Resize was turned OFF
    Width was 2321 px and height was 1824 px, BOTH GRAYED OUT.
    Upon leaving ACR, I had a 2321x1824 file.
    Eventually, after wasting another hour screwing around with it, I finally blew away all of Bridge AND the preferences and all that,
    and rebooted since the %$#)(*& Adobe CC thing wouldn't figure out there was no more Bridge, and resintalled...........
    Now, when I open a file in there, at LEAST it knows it's 12.2MP.
    It STILL wants to change the Space to sRGB, which I NEVER use from here, and the Depth to 8-bit, which again, I never use in ACR,
    but I can set those back to what they should be...
    So, in this case, by using a large enough bludgeon, I appear to have gotten around the problem.  Now I'm just waiting to see how soon it screws up again.

  • Workflow options are disabled in the sidekick for non-administrators

    We have a custom workflow for content approval. The first step in the workflow assigns the task to the workflow initiator.
    While testing the workflow, the initiation is successful and also the first task is assigned to the initiator. But when the initiator open the task and the content attached to the workflow opens in the content finder the workflow options are not available in the sidekick. It just says "
    This page is subject to workflow: 
    TxDOT Content Approval Workflow
    Under Workflow Package it says - "Unable to add to a package because of a running workflow."
    Any idea why the workflow options to complete, step back, and delegate are not available? These options are available to the author by right-clicking on the task in the Inbox. Just not available in the sidekick.

    Sham,
    This is the strange part of the issue. The content is attached to the workflow and the task is also assigned to the user. I have verified this from the worklfow instances. Yet, these options are not available in the sidekick. However, these options are available in the right-click menu in Inbox.

  • Modelling different workflow-options

    Hi,
    There is a wiki which tells us the different work-flow options you can use:
    SAP Business Workflow,
    Guided Procedures
    Collaboration tasks
    ccBPM
    etc.
    Question1: is the a comprehensive tool to model these different altogether or do we need SAP Business Workflow's own modelling tool, UML for guided procedures, ? for Collaboration tasks and BPMN for BPEL separately (I hope it's not...).
    Question 2: How does ARIS EPC's relate to this: the EPC is used for business-modelling. This should be the starting point for configurating different workflow-options, (using different models?).
    Greetings Theo

    Hi Theo,
    I've nothing to hide but that quote was taken from an internal SAP mail so it wasn't polished for forum publication.
    Just to clarify - I agree with your description of the layers.
    I believe that a bpx working in an SAP environment should be aware of the tools (and approximate capabilities) at their disposal as well as basic functionality in the underlying business components deployed.
    I believe that any question along the lines of "how do you do this with..tool A" is definitely not for the bpx forum. It should go in the relevant tools forum. Seeing as most of these posts are related to SAP Business Workflow or BAM or XI then they should go in the SAP NetWeaver BPM forum. There is also a CAF forum for guided procedures and a Visual Composer forum for VC and other forums for the other tools (such as BI). I.e. No need to create a new forum, just direct these tool posts to the tools forums.
    I don't know whether BPMN or UML can really be understood by the business experts. In my experience white-boarding and flow-charts work pretty well but maybe the business experts have become more process savvy (which is why we want to offer certification).
    Experience in a process automation project is a must, and knowledge about why this process is being done in such-and-such a way (e.g. 6-Sigma understanding) is also a must.
    The BPX can reach level 1 from either level 1 or level 3. Philip Kisloff's BPX article is an excellent demonstration of level 3. Yes, he did use workflow to solve the problem but he had his bpx glasses on when he wrote the article.

  • Camera Raw Workflow options

    HI
    when i open jpag (or tiff) in camera raw Workflow options,
    i have option to size image.
    may question it's: if i choose the large size, what hapen to
    may image - interpolation like in Ps?
    thank

    I don't know which algorithm Camera Raw uses ... but the result of the upsampling is virtually the same as Bicubic Smoother in Photoshop. Except for one thing: Camera Raw's upsampling will add tiny ringing artifacts to the result; Photoshop's won't. The artifacts are bright, horizontal or vertical, 1-pixel-wide lines along sharp, high-contrast edges. So for perfect results I recommend to convert the raw image to its native size in Camera Raw, then do the upsizing in Photoshop using the resampling method Bicubic Smoother. Before upsizing, apply some gentle source or capture sharpening.
    However those ringing artifacts are really
    i very
    small; it takes a very close look at high magnification to notice. In most cases they'll go unnoticed. So you may decide not to care. However they tend to get emphasized by subsequent sharpening.

  • Sharpen in "workflow options" and "Detail" tab

    how does the sharpen within workflow options relate to the sharpening applied within the detail pane?
    Does one override the other or would the sharpening be additive?
    thanks.

    >I probably would never use the workflow settings, especially since they are not well defined settings, and I assume for "general" office work...
    In my opinion, the workflow options for output sharpening in ACR are rather awkward to use. One advantage of parametric editing is that the edits are stored in the ACR database or in the XMP file in a compact form without the necessity of large and possibly multilayered TIFF files. After making the required edits, one has repurposable masterfile that can be used for derivative images.
    However, when one uses the ACR output sharpening, the dimensions of the image and the resolution must be determined in advance. One then has an output file that is suitable only for printing that specific image, and repurposibility is lost.
    Furthermore, the output sharpening in ACR requires the setting of the resolution in pixels per inch. When printing to a relatively large output size, one usually renders the image at the native resolution of the camera and then sets the image dimensions of the picture without resampling. In the ACR workflow one must manually calculate the needed output resolution from the intended output size in inches and the native resolution of the camera in pixels.
    For example, if one is using a Nikon D3 camera with a resolution of 2832 x 4256 pixels and wants to print on super B paper with a short axis dimension 12.5 inches, it is necessary to predetermine the required resolution in pixels per inch by dividing 2832 by 12.5 to obtain the needed resolution of 227 pixels per inch. One enters this value in the ACR dialog box.The result is an image that is suitable only for printing at that size.
    Personally, I would prefer to use ACR to make a repurposable masterfile which can later be resized and output sharpened as necessary. Currently, I use PKSharpener for this purpose.
    It would be nice to be able to store several possible output options in the XMP file or database, and this is currently not possible. For example, one might want to store settings for 8 by 10 or 11 x 14 inch prints.

  • Workflow Options

    I'm a long time PS user but have always used Capture One for RAW conversion. I'm now trying to learn ACR 5.0 which looks to have developed into a pretty cool RAW converter with some great features. My question is - how can I save Workflow Options as defaults? I want sRGB, 16bit and 300ppi as opposed to the default RGB, 8bit, 240ppi. It seems that each time I exit ACR the Workflow Options revert to the defaults. Thanks in advance for what I'm sure will be a simple answer.
    Ed

    Thanks for the fast response Ramon!
    Maybe things have changed or it's a glitch in the new software, but the Workflow Options are not sticky in 5.0. I have a feeling that will change with some near-future updates.
    I pre-purchased CS4 about two weeks ago and downloaded the new software early this morning. PS will take a little getting used since some things have changed locations, but I'm very excited with some of the new features. Like I mentioned before - I'm a newbie to ACR so the entire program is a learning experience.
    Thanks again for your response and I'll just "wait and see" what happens in the next few weeks with upgrades to resolve the non-sticky Workflow Options.

  • "Workflow Options" profiles

    Hi Everyone. I was wondering if there is a way to add profiles (color spaces) to the existing selection under "Workflow Options". I only see the usual suspects (SRGB, Adobe 1998 etc,). I have tried going into Colorsync>profiles with no luck. Thanks!

    No...the only color spaces available are the 4 in the Workflow settings. If you want to transform to some other color space, open the image in Pro Photo RGB in 16 bit and do a Convert to Profile conversion inside of Photoshop.

  • Workflow Options Changed in ACR

    I noticed that the Workflow Options window in ACR has changed slightly so that it looks more like Export in Lightroom.  When did this happen? Is there a way to toggle between the old and new windows for Workflow Options.  I noticed that this change is not on all computers with the newest version of CS6.  Some have the old window and some the new one.

    I'm moving this post from this forum for photoshop-dot-com (an online portal) to the correct forum for Photoshop pro users like yourselves.

  • ACR 8.1 beta Crop/Workflow Options change is inconvenient

    I generally leave the ACR Workflow Options resolution set to default, and in the past have set the crop tool to a smaller pixel resolution, such as 1024x768.  I could then either run the image straight thru to Photoshop at full resolution, or apply a crop and save directly from ACR for proof/email lower resolution versions.
    However it appears that in 8.1 the crop tool no longer has a pixel setting, now I have to set the resolution in the workflow options in order to save out a proof/email image.  If I want to run the full resolution image thru to Photoshop I have to click on the Workflow Options link and disable the resolution setting.  So I can't switch back and forth without changing workflow options, which requires more clicks, and is easy to forget; Is there a way to save multiple workflow options settings and select among them?  Such has been requested for a long time, but apparently is still not available.
    Richard Southworth
    Added by edit - the new item in the Workflow Options is a Resize to Fit section, which can be enabled/disabled with a check box.  Is there a shortcut key to toggle, something quicker than going thru the link at the bottom?

    I'm in the process of going through 1100+ images from a recent vacation, selecting and re-sizing for transfer to an iPad.  Actually the new arrangement is working out ok, I'm adjusting and cropping on the originals, then going back and doing a multiple save out at the desired resolution.  Most of my images are un-cropped, so this new configuration saves a lot of full frame cropping.
    As long as I remember to disable the resize before moving images to Photoshop all is ok, even preferable.  Sorry I complained, nothing like using a tool to understand the pros and cons.

  • Cancel Save Workflow option missing in R17 env

    Has anyone noticed the cancel save option in WF is missing in my R17 env.
    Can anyone confirm if they have it in any of their R17 env ?
    Edited by: Robin7511 on Jun 15, 2010 3:32 PM

    Hi Everyone,
    We were a little surprised by this as well. We had built quite a few CO validations with it and at this time will probably rollback the validations until certification is complete.
    The following is an excerpt taken directly from the June 2010 patch release notes:
    Oracle CRM On Demand
    Release 17
    Patch Release Notes
    1142.0.02
    "Cancel Save option in Workflow exposed on record types other than Opportunity (CR 12-1XVXFX5)
    The Cancel Save feature was released in 1083.0.00 for the Opportunity record type only. It was
    inadvertently exposed on other record types and is not certified by Oracle CRM On Demand. If you
    have already used this feature you will receive the following privilege so you can either roll back the
    use of this feature (recommended) or continue usage at your own risk:
    Privilege Category: Customization: Business Rules
    Privilege Name: Workflow Cancel Save
    Privilege Description: Prevent save operation on 'Before Modified Record Saved' workflow events.
    This privilege is dependent on the Manage Data Rules - Manage Workflow Rules privilege. The
    privilege allows the use of this feature on the following record types:
    1. Account
    2. Activity
    3. Contact
    4. Custom Object 1
    5. Custom Object 2
    6. Custom Object 4
    7. Household
    8. Lead
    9. Revenue
    10. Service Request
    This feature is not supported on any other record types.
    If you have used the Cancel Save feature, and have not received this privilege or the privilege is inactive, the Cancel

  • Workflow Option unavilavble in CUP (5.3)

    Hi Everyone,
    The Workflow  Type option isnt available as I am configuring work flows
    RAR  is integrated with CUP ( I mean the Webservice is in palce in the risk anlayis tab in configuration )
    and also in the miscellaneous tab I have activated the CUP provisoning bit. still no luck
    does it need any restarting ?
    any suggestions? Thanks in advance
    Regards
    KH

    Kevin,
      This means that you have not activated other workflow types. I have a question for you:
    Do you see any other workflow types other than CUP in miscellaneous link? If yes, then activate them. If no then you need to upload the initial data files for RAR and ERM. Once you upload these files into CUP, you will see other workflow types which ERM, risk, mitigation etc. Even after uploading these files, if you don't see any workflow type other than CUP then reboot your J2EE engine and retest.

  • Oracle EBS Workflow Options

    Hi,
    Anybody has ideas about Oracle EBS workflow strategy in the near future?
    I would like to customize the workflow for GL (parallel approval) in Oracle EBS (11i/R12) and need suggestions on each option.
    Options:
    1. Custom Standard Oracle Workflow
    This is a short term high effort customization solution.
    2. Utilize Oracle Approval Management (AME)
    It is available for limited modules and functions. GL module is not part of the supported modules in the near future.
    3. BPEL for Oracle Apps
    Not sure whether it is integrated with Oracle Apps. Need more information.
    I saw a doc about migrating WF processes to Oracle BPEL but it does not have any detail info. (Doc ID: Note:394387.1)
    Regards,
    Jeremy

    Jeremy,
    The suitable choice would be either oracle workflow or the BPEL but it still depends on a lot many other factors.
    The standard oracle workflow is still going to be around for many more years and is the default choice as of now.
    BPEL is more versatile, more detailed but there is no apps standard for it. So even if you develop now in BPEL, there are chances that it might not be compatible/feasible with the Fusion Apps standards which we don't know yet. And there are other factors like learning a new tech and the ones Gareth has mentioned.

  • DNG/Smart Object Workflow Options

    Hi, we have been converting all of our RAW files to DNG upon receiving from photographers. So this is the format we will use going forward for all RAW images.
    We create web banners from these images in a master Photoshop file that allows us to crop and optimize in one place. The end file will have many layers of banners that we will export for each page header.
    But we decided to embed the RAW files as Smart Objects so that we could make any further tweaks in ACR as we went along.
    - Am I correct in assuming that ONLY the initial ACR adjustments made before opening the DNG in PS as a Smart Object will be stored in the actual DNG file? Any further refinements made from PS by double-clicking to open in ACR won't be stored in the original DNG file?
    - If this is the case, are there any scripts, automations or workflow suggestions that would allow us to keep our original DNG files up-to-date with all adjustments made, including those done after being made a Smart Object in PS (we use PS CS6 currently)?
    It is really convenient to have all the images in the one PS document as Smart Objects that can be re-adjusted as needed. But I would also like to be able to batch save the DNG's for a different purpose (e.g, master files for printing) without having to go back and redo all the adjustments.
    Ideas??

    Ahh, thanks. So Photoshop now works like InDesign using linked layers? And that works with updating DNG settings as with native Illustrator/PS documents?
    That's a nice upgrade. Moving the whole office to CC is a fairly major undertaking (once we're in, I imagine we're stuck paying each month).
    - Any options for working in CS6 (e.g,. ways to export settings or DNG's from layers)?!?
    Thanks again!

  • Workflow options for creating dailies?

    I recently shot about six hours of interview footage in a day-long shoot. My producer, who's in New York, asked me to dump all the raw footage to DVDs and fedex them up. No problem, thought I. I'll just capture it all, throw on a timecode burn and go.
    Well, it turned out to be a little more complicated. Six hours of footage in five one-hour and two half-hour chunks requires a LOT of rendering just to put a timecode burn on it. The job's almost done now, thanks to a couple of overnight render sessions while I was home sleeping, but for next time, I'd like to find a better, faster and more importantly less-machine-tying-up workflow for creating dailies.
    I'm aware that I could have just sent the tapes out to a post house to have them transferred to DVD with a TC burn on them, but since I was shooting in 24f mode on an XL H1, there are very few options for playing back these tapes. (Tapes shot in that format only play back on Canon cameras, and only on a few specific models of Canon camera to boot.)
    Do any of y'all have a good workflow for creating dailies from piles and piles of raw footage?
    Thanks.

    Actually, that probably would work, since the whole point of this heretofore painful exercise has been to create dailies with a timecode burn on them. Even if the resulting DVD is 29.97, if I burned in the source timecode on my 23.98 sequence, that'd be fine.
    Of course, I'd still have to insert pulldown into the signal going to the DVD recorder.
    In my particular case, this option requires a couple of not-insignificant pieces of hardware that I neither have nor need for any other use: Namely, some kind of analog video output from my Mac, and a DVD recorder that takes an analog input. If I were doing this on a daily basis, finding the right combination of hardware and software would make perfect sense. But at this stage, I'm not producing long-form dailies often enough to make it worth a big investment.
    As with so many things, this is sounding like a perfect trade-off between time and money. I can do it with no additional gear at all, as long as I'm willing to set aside a few hours to render. Or I can do it in real time, but only with new hardware.
    Such is life.
    (In retrospect, something I failed to think of before starting this effort was capturing my footage as DV instead of HDV from my camera. The XL H1 has a real-time DV downconvert option. I could have grabbed the six hours of footage as DV, then burned my dailies off of those with correspondingly shorter render times, then gone back to my source tapes to capture the clips I want for my edit. That would have been, y'know, smart. I'm just out of the habit of thinking on offline-online terms.)
