Toggle for hide preview on layer?

Does anyone know if it's possible to turn the preview of a layer on and off with a keystroke?
I mean like you do in the layers palette by command-clicking on the layer eye.
I am tracing a lot of photographs and it's getting a bit tedious having to endlessly click on the pallette.
Another thing; I seem to remember way back (Maybe Illie 3 or 5) that it was possible to preview selected objects only with a keystroke.
Can this still be done?

You can use F4 for layer outline mode and F5 for layer preview mode, for example.
Just record two actions, one that turns on layer outline mode and another one that turns it off. Then assign keyboard shortcuts to the actions, like F4 and F5.

How to hide preview configurator summary page when launching configurator from iStore

Hi,
We have a requirement to hide preview configuration summary page in iStore whereas it should be visible when launching from other host applications.We tried doing it with help of usage functionality as below.
1) Create a usage with some name say “iStore” in configurator.
2) Take copy of summary with Status region template and add display condition to hide the summary region.
3) Take copy of the model active ui and attach the above template to it.
4) Publish the model with this new copy UI and usage as iStore to the host application.(There will be 2 publications one with this usage and other with normal)
5) Enable the profile CZ:Publication usage at application/responsibility levels for iStore.
With the above approach users are concerned that we need to maintain 2 User Interfaces in Configurator and each time any change has to be done both the user interfaces needs to be changes which will not be a feasible option in case of complex models.We would like to know if there is any other approach to hide this summary page from istore.
We are on R12.1.3 and are using fusion configurator engine.
Any suggestions on customizations/approach will be appreciated.

Why is there not a window control button for Hide?

Hello.
Why is hiding a window / app not a 1-click window control? Perhaps with Option+Click as Hide All Others.
Window controls exist to streamline common tasks; hiding is a very common task in OS X.
Can't even find a workaround or 3rd party solution. Any thoughts?
Thank you.

Thank you for your replies.
All technically correct information, but not quite what I was getting at.
I'm aware of the available methods, but would like to have a single button in the app's window. Single click, no modifier needed from the keyboard, no need to go to the dock, etc. Imagine if none of the dots were available in the upper-left and you could only access those functions via methods similar to those that toggle the Hide feature. Most people would probably want the dots back pronto.
That's how I feel about the absence of a Hide button.

Is it possible to hide a hierarchal layer from one that is lower in the layer stack?

In AI CS5 Version 15.0.2 for Windows 7 64-bit; Is it possible to hide a hierarchal layer from one that is lower in the layer stack? I would like to make visible one of the bottom layers and hide a layer near the top that is on a separate artboard.

Shift click on the mask in the transprency panel and you will add a red x through the mask symbolizing disabling of the mask.

Keyboard shortcuts to toggle "markup" in Preview

I know about [control] + [command] + H, [control] + [command] + U, and [control] + [command] + S. And these work.
But I find myself needing to click the markup button (toggling it on and off) multiple times per page while reading. I wish there was a keyboard shortcut for this. I tried making one in system preferences for just Preview: [control] + [command] + M. It doesn't seem to work.
Any suggestions on how to create this shortcut?

You can use a shortcut application like Keyboard Maestro, SimpleKeys, Shortcuts or Macro Recorder. I use KM extensively for adding "canned" replies to posts, opening apps, etc. It can handle the kind of task you're looking for. However, it may be overkill for just that one task so look into the others. Go to MacUpdate.com and search for "keyboard shortcuts" and "keyboard macros" to get other candidates.
Currently QuickKeys is not compatible with Mavericks. I had used it previously but like KM so much better.

PP CS3 vs PP CS4 for RT previews?

I think the RT playback setting options of PP CS3 are better than what we have in CS4. I had much more RT and the images looked smoother on an NTSC monitor when I opted for Accelerated GPU Effects in PP CS3. I see that you can select an HDMI or even an S-Video out put as the external device during RT previews using PP CS4 but the way it works now I get interlacing artifacts and odd flashes of green and white when using transitions, text titles or even PIPs with motion paths. I think the old method of PP CS3 played the VGA overlay and relied on the GPU to interlace the overlay to the NTSC monitor. I think PP CS4 tries to interlace the actual video codec of the clip to the HDMI/S-Video port during the RT preview instead of letting the GPU convert the overlay. With PP CS4 I can have the NTSC monitor preview look good or the VGA preview look good but not both. I had to realy tweak the setting of my graphics card using PP CS4 unlike the easier method of PP CS3. I see the icon to inable or disable rendered areas during RT previews is gone (Icon by the marker icon in the timeline panel).
Another thing I liked better about PP CS3 is the fact that the video card CC settings did not affect the RT previews of PP CS3. In other words I could drain the monitor images to black and white using the video cards color correction settings but it did not affect Premiere's video clips at all. CC had to be done using Premiere's CC (better method I think). Now the color calibrations made with the graphics card does affect the Premiere Pro RT playback.
I don't have PP CS4 I only used the demo. I liked things the way they were. What do you folks think of PP CS4 VS PP CS3 for RT previews?

Is this what you want to hear?
Your system is maybe to slow and your video card is outdated. CS4 has more GPU acceleration than CS3. In fact Adobe has said it that Cs4 is optimized for Vista 64 and a quad core and at least 4 gigs of RAM 'are recommended'.
Your computer specs are a few years outdated so CS3 will be faster than CS4 on our computer.
That is a fact. If you would have given your computer specs when first asked we could have cleared this up.
If I'm wrong someone will correct me. You need to update your video card badly if you want to use CS4.
There is your answer. Newer versions of software tend to require more updated computers. This is how things work. Does this answer your question?
Jim,
I'm speechless. You won't upgrade out of moral principal because you don't like the company that created the internet installer? I'm speechless man. You want me to buy you a dvd of the trial? I will if you can't afford it. email me your address if this is the case. [email protected] Your smart and you could help out alot here if you just tried the software instead of just going by what you read on forums to give people advice.

Firewire Output for Video Preview Intermittent

I'm experiencing a frustrating problem with After Effects these days.
We're producing some video to be projected, so to see what the final output will really look like, I'm doing video previews using FireWire so output goes directly to the projector.
It's been working great up until yesterday. Was working fine until I had to restart my Mac. Upon reboot, my the projector no longer gets any video output.
I've tried restarting numerous times, checked all connections, etc. Got it working again after several restarts, but after switching over to Photoshop momentarily, the video output once again disappeared.
Any suggestions on how to regain consistent Firewire output for Video Previews?
My setup:
After Effects CS6
Mac Pro
OSX Version 10.7.5
Firewire Output of my Mac's monitor is going to the Firewire Input on my Sony Media Converter
RCA Video out (Composite video) going to the projector's video input.
After Effects Video Preview preferences:
Output Device: FireWire
Output Mode: Apple FireWire NTSC

Thanks for your reply, Rick.
I finally figured it out... I had a background application running called iCam that monitors my security cameras. I had forgotten that it uses Firewire and was intermittently hogging the resources. Once I quit that application, everything was good once again.
Thanks for taking the time to respond, much appreciated!

Why can't I make Lightroom use all the CPU-Power (all cores) available for generating Previews?

Dear Lightroom Team,
I've been a Lightroom user since the very first Beta, and I am truly happy with the work you deliver. It changed my way of editing forever, and you guys keep improving it.
Yet there is that one question that bothers me, and that i'm looking for an answer for.
My Workflow has the generate Previews checkbox checked by standard. I usually import between 150 and 2000 photos at once, on occaions it can be up to 5000 photos. Generating Previews always takes a significant amount of time, and Lightroom is only using 25% of my CPU Power while doing so. (using a MacBook Pro 8,2)
I understand the concept, that only using 25% CPU enables me to use the computer while waiting for the Previews. But most of the time I just grab myself a cup of coffee, do the dishes or other stuff, while waiting for the Previews. Usually I rund out of things to do, because it takes ages to Process all the photos. So I would really love to make Lightroom use ALL the cpu power possible.
I'm sure you guys have spent a lot of thoughts while coding this and have a very good answer handy. Looking forward reading it!
all the best,
Wolfgang

On my four-year old Windows 7 i7-860 system LR4.4.1 takes ~0.5 sec. per Canon 5D MKII 21Mp raw image to render 'Standard-Sized' previews with LR Catalog Settings 'Standard Preview Size' set to '2048' pixels. I consider that pretty fast!
I usually build 1:1 full-size previews on import, which takes ~5.0 sec. per image. Processor utilization varies between 15-50% for Standard-Sized previews and 15-65% for 1:1 previews. I consider this pretty slow, but it doesn't stop me from working on the images inside LR's Library and Develop modules.
I wait until 'Copy and import photos' has completed and can see Preview Building has started. LR doesn't slow-down much even with the 1:1 preview building going on in the background. Have you tried working in LR during the preview building (i.e. sorting, rating, keywording, and Develop adjustments)?

Office 2016 for Mac Preview

Hello,
As I didn't found any forum for the Mac Preview version of office I'm posting this here.
I hope to find someone who will help.
When using one of the Microsoft Office 2016 application for the Mac (Preview), I’m randomly prompt to authentification (a very clean pop-up windows that requests "Authentication required for the server: office15client.microsoft.com")
I cannot use the appliction (even with a document open in background) unless I deal with the “pop-up"
This happens only in the Corporate Network (the is a proxy) - never at home.
If I click on cancel the prompt goes away, and come back (3 times generally)
If I try to authenticate I’m always re-prompt with the same “pop-up” without any error message (I’ve tried up to 6 times …)
I have no control over the proxy ... so please don't post any solution involving Whitelisting ;-)
Thanks in advance to anyone that could help.

Hi,
So this happens only in the Corporate Network behind the company proxy.
Office need to connect to Office service server during use. Might be your proxy server setting is blocking Office from connecting to the Internet. I would suggest you check with the IT/system administrator at your company for further help on the issue, make
sure that Office services can connect to the Internet through that proxy server.
Or if you do not rely on Office online functions at moment, such as cloud storage, etc. You can try disabling the option of “Allow Office to connect to the Internet” temporarily and see if issue persists:
Open your Office program, say, Word.
Click File > Options > Trust Center > Trust Center Settings
Click on Privacy Options from the left pane.
Untick the check box before "Allow Office to connect to the Internet"
By the way, this is the forum to discuss questions and feedback for Windows-based Microsoft Office client. Since your query is directly related to Office for mac, I would suggest you to post in the dedicated forum of
Office for Mac Preview, where you can get more experienced responses:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macofficepreview
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.

How differs soft proofing in View - Proof Colors and Save for Web - Preview?

Hi, I'm currently confused with one inconsistency. My working space is Adobe RGB and I use calibrated monitor. After I finish my work on image I go to View -> Proof Colors -> Internet Standard RGB. Image looks terribly with the overall violet/purple hue. Then I open Save for Web dialogue, I check Convert to RGB and from Preview options I select again Internet Standard RGB. Now the previewed image looks as expected. The same results I get if I manually convert image to sRGB before soft proofing and saving for web. So... what's the difference between preview in Proof Colours and in Save for Web? Thank you for your opinions.

Hi 21, thank you for your input. All what you say makes perfect sense, it is exactly how it should work and how I expected it works. My problem was, that while testing this theory in practice, I have come to different results. I expected, that if I stick to the theory (meaning keeping in mind all rules you perfectly described) I should get the same result in both soft proof and save for web preview. But... it was not the case. Save for web preview offered expected results while soft proof was completely out of any assumptions and colours were totally over-saturated with violet/purple hue. Also, Edit -> Assign Profile -> sRGB gave another result then Soft Proof -> Custom -> assign sRGB (preserve numbers), but the same as save for web preview. What troubled me was why this is so.
Today I've made tests on hardware calibrated monitor and... everything works exactly as you describe and as I expected.
Then I went back to another monitor which is software calibrated (both monitors are calibrated with X-Rite i1 Display Pro). And again... I received strange results described above. So I did the last thing I thought and disabled colour calibration on that monitor. And suddenly... both soft proof and save for web preview gave the same result.
Probable conclusion: soft proof and save for web preview (together with Edit -> Assign Profile) are programmed to use different algorithm which is evident on standard gamut monitors with software calibration. Question can be closed.
Gene and 21, thank you for your effort.

I'm not sure that the registration for the preview version is still working because we now have a production version. I suggest that you download the production version of JDeveloper from OTN.
