Transformer effects applied to faders data - help!

Hello,
Playing around with the environment, i have been trying to apply midi effects, such as the random functions on the transformer effect, to fader controls such as the FM1's lfo rate. Something must be eluding me however, as so far my efforts have yet to yield any results.
Does anyone know how to achieve what i am after, that is, if it is even possible?
Many thanks

If you have photoshop cs3 or newer, then perhaps one the following scripts will work
Layer Saver
or
Layer Saver Adj.

Using "transform-effect copies" as a clipping mask

1. I have a box shape, with a transform effect applied on it that copies the box 5 times horizontally.
2. I want to use these 6 boxes as a clipping mask.
3. How do I:
a) Directly use this object as a clipping mask? Doesn't look like it's possible. When I try it only uses the original single box as the mask. The other 5 boxes disappear.
b) "Break" the box shape object into 6 separate boxes so that they're no longer "phantom copies" but individual objects that I can then group to form a real clipping mask.

Thank you, that worked (at least for B).
Since Expand Appearance permanently breaks the object, does that mean that A isn't possible? (where I can keep the original object intact as 1 box with 5 copies and still act as a clipping mask)

Can a transform effect be applied with applescript

I want to write a script for Illustrator that will apply a step and repeat as a transform effect based on the dimensions of the artboard. I've figured out how to get the dimensions of the artboard, but I'm at a loss as to how to apply a transform effect with a script. It looks like it might be in the Matrix suite, but none of the descriptions there make much sense to me.

The reason I thought of a script is because it would allow me to create logic that would work on multiple repeat sizes. The files I'm working with use all different repeats. I've been using actions and styles to streamline, so this script is kind of a next step from that.

Transform Effect and Gaussian Blur creates issues

Here is one issue I cannot figure out how to correct. At times, I apply the Distort - Transform effect on a clip to scale up/down, etc,...then the next clip (which I dissolve to) has the Gaussain Blur applied to it. When I apply the blur the previous clip (with the Transform effrect) shifts. I have the Blur effect above the Transform effect in the Effects pannel and it still does not help. I cannot figure out how to stop the clip from shifting.

I recall a similar bug with Gaussian Blur a while back. I winder if that bug is still around.

[svn:fx-trunk] 13133: Fix to transform effects to ignore projection on 2D effects.

Fix to transform effects to ignore projection on 2D effects. The prior implementation meant that even 2D effects, like Move, would cause us to set the projection information on a target object's container, even though we were not changing 3D values.
The fix is to set the default values of the projection properties to false in AnimateTransformInstance. That way, any 3D effect (AnimateTransform3D or its subclasses) would cuase the properties to be set according to the 3D defaults (or values that the developer set them to), whereas any 2D effect would leave the values false, which would result in our ignoring the projection matrix for that effect.

Transform Effect jumps around when Collapse Transformation is enabled

I created a reflection on one of my vector based animated layers. Then decided to apply reflection with Transform effect.
It all held true before I assigned "Collapse Transformation" and my Transform effect is going awry. Basically because there is zoom out with the camera and scale as well.
Transformation's Anchor points and Distance are note keeping up with the movements and reflection is jumpint all over the place.
Where should this Transformation effect be applied. On the first level when I created my PreComp1 with all the layers (and then PreComp1 is getting nested within other PreComps) or at the very end at the Final PreComp for render I should apply this effect.
It seems to jump around in any case...

I read the help, it states that Collapse Transormation buttons treats the PreComp as seprated layers, which preserved 3D treatiment for casting shadows and does not cut off shapes by PreComp size.
It seems to work for me that I check continuosly rasterize on each individual illustrator imported layer (inside the PreComp1), so when I enlarge the shapes they stay crisp. Then I keep on checking Collapse transformations on all consequtive PreComps and everything stays sharp.
My question is at what stage I would better apply Transform effect, which doesn't seem to work. Should it be on the PreComp1 layer with all the Continuoiusly rasterize enabled or on final Render Out PreComp where "Collapse Transformations" is checked off?
In eather way because of movement of these illustrator layers, Transform position seems to be fixe on screen, but is not relevant to shape movement whithin the PreComp1.
What previously worked for me was that I applied Transformation on each individual illustrator layer, however I did not enable "Collapse Transformations" in and consequtive PreComps. As soon as this feature is enabled everything goes awry....

TS3579 I found this useful because I did not know about the effect of typing in data and that you could only drag to rearrange the data. I had typed in data before and this had caused problems but restoring defaults did not cause correct dates to show up

I found this (TS3579: If the wrong date or time is displayed in some apps on your Mac Learn about If the wrong date or time is displayed in some apps on your Mac) useful because I did not know about the effect of typing in data and that you could only drag to rearrange the data. I had typed in data before and this had caused problems but restoring defaults did not cause correct dates to show up in Finder.

It sounds like there are a couple things going on here. First check if you have a successful install of SQL Server, then we'll figure out the connection issues.
Can you launch SQL Server Configuration Manager and check for SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) if default instance or SQL Server (other name) if you've configured your instance as a named instance. Once you find this, make sure the service is started.
If not started, try to start it and see if it throws an error. If you get an error, post the error message your hitting. If the service starts, you can then launch SSMS and try to connect. If you have a default instance, you can use the machine
name in the connection dialog. Ex: "COWBOYS" where Cowboys is the machine name. However, if you named the SQL Server instance during install, you'll need to connect using the machine\instance format. Ex: COWBOYS\Romo (where Romo
is the instance name you set during install).
You can also look at the summary.txt file in the SQL Server setup error logs to see what happened on the most recent install. Past install history is archived in the log folder if you need to dig those up to help troubleshoot, but the most
recent one may help get to the bottom of it if there is an issue with setup detecting a prior instance that needs to be repaired.

White lines around texts with object effects applied

I am having a persistent problem with InDesign's output of PDFs when I have applied object effects to text boxes.
When I use an effect—such as emboss (shown in samples) or outer glow—on a text box, the PDF renders it with white lines around the text boxes (sometimes with more than one).
See the attached samples; the boxes are clearly visible with a 3rd party PDF viewer, such as Skim; less so with Acrobat Pro, but still there. It's there when I open the PDF in Photoshop, as well.
I've tried playing with transparency flattening settings, and with merging the layers into a single layer. No help.
The sample shown has an emboss effect applied, transparency flattening set to high resolution (ignoring style overrides), and a single merged layer.
Any help?
In Acrobat Pro:
In Photoshop:
In Skim:

Thanks so much, Bob.
My printer requires that I use the PDF/X-1a:2001 standard for PDF export, which means that it must be Acrobat 4 or later compatibility.
Also: I don't see how to NOT flatten, when exporting PDF for print; the options for flattening are "low resolution," "medium resolution," or "high resolution"—but there is not an option to NOT flatten. Do you know a work-around for this?

Sound clip level lowers when effect applied??

Hi Everyone.
Does anyone know why it is that the sound level contained within a clip lowers substantially after the clip has an effect applied to it (such as Brightness/Contrast?)
Is there a fix???
I think I asked this question about 2 years ago... and I believe the answer was sitting on Dansangle site. I just checked but I cannot find it!
help?!?! please!?!
Nick.

Fixes for some transform effects problems.
- We were not animating the postLayout properties in some cases where we should have, effectively pinning the object in place. We now animate those properties whenever applyChangesPostLayout is true.
- A copy/paste error meant that we did not animate the scaleZ property in cases where we should have.
- A problem in the transform code means that using a null transform center is not the same as a transform center which uses the transformX/Y/Z properties of the target object. We now force the creation/use of a transform center in all cases to avoid that problem.
QE notes: This breaks about a dozen tests in the transform effects area, but I believe the new results are correct and the tests/bitmaps should be changed.

Changing date help icon inside a table

Dear Experts,
We changed the icon for Date help in the theme editor. In a web dynpro screen the changed image reflects for all date fields but not for the ones inside a table.
If there's a date field inside a table then the icon still shows the default imgage. We have tried to clear local as well as cluster cache and restart the protal but with no effect.
Please help in reolving this issue.
Best Regards

I think rather than trying some quirks, you are better off opening a message with SAP.

Transform Effect problems when used with 3D layer's depth

Here is my set up.
I have PreComp with graphics illustrator imported layer with continuosly rasterise enabled.
This graphics has a reflection underneath it. I made the reflection by applying Transform effect, setting offset to -100 and adjusting the Anchor point.
As far as graphics move left to right (X,Y) there is no problem and Anchor point is in its place.
As soon as I make the layer 3D and start changing depth values the reflection starts to jump around.
My guess is - it happens because anchor point is a constant value and since reflection is based off its value it does not follow the base of the graphics. Purhasps there is a code snippet which need to be used to link the Anchor Point value to the Zoom Value? Adjusting Anchor point values with key frames proved too difficult.
In another words I would like to keep the reflection at a constant distance from the base of the graphics and once the graphics move out or in the reflection does not follow.
I PreComposed this graphics and imported it into the new Compostion and applied XY and Z movement using camera and Null layers. It was the same effect and reflection did not stick to the base of the graphics.
I need to keep Collapse Transformation enabled on all the consecutive Comps/PreComps to make sure the vector art renders at high quality.
What would be a proper way to make a reflection of a 3D layer/preComp in the Comp where movement controlled with Camera and Null layers, with Continuosly Rasterise/Collapse Transformations enabled?

Great! At least I know not to spent my time in a wrong direction.
Two questions:
Do I need to enable "Collapse Transformations" in the final rendering Comp in order to keep "Continuously Rasterize" settings within the nested PreComps enabled (for illustrator files rendering sharp). I have a few nested preComps and originally activated "Continuously Rasterize" throughout the project in all of them.
"How" to create reflections seem clear from your comment. Do not use any effects but rather create a copy of a layer I would like to have a reflection of and scale it to -100. "When" seems to be a mystery. Should I apply reflection in the very first preComp or very last or the one where I create all the major animation for my graphics?

Objects with effects applied to them print with a white background around them

I have an object with a dropshadow effect applied to it. When attempting to print my file, the object with the effect prints with a solid white box around it, blocking out a portion of the objects behind it. Why is this, and how do I fix it? I have tried to apply the "flatten transparency" option to the object with no result. The only way I have found to successfully print this is to import the whole file into Photoshop and print it as a raster file. I would like to preserve this file as vector...

I think the problem lies with your ripper/printer not understanding the higher level PostScript - convert raster effects to greyscale if at all possible - might help...

How to separate my adornments from effects applied to page item?

Hi All,
I have my own graphical page item. And I also draw special border and, the most important, my special label if my object is bigger than its frame. (Text frame behaviour is the example for me).
I tried to draw adornments in MyShape::DrawPageItemAdornments reimplemented method. I also tried to draw my adornments in the way of FrameLabel SDK sample adding my IAdornmentShape implementation.
But in all these cases my adornments have drop shadow and all other effects applied to the item.
Is there any possibility to separate adornments from the effects like drop shadow?
I need your help very much!
Thank you in advance.
Sofia
