Unable to lower highest tones using Highlights/Whites adjustment

When using negative adjustment of Highlights, it seems the very top end of the histogram is pegged -- i.e., the brightest regions remain bright -- and even the maximum amount of Whites adjustment cannot fix this.
This poses a real problem for images where one wants to accomplish a significant boost of shadows and lower midtones via an increase in Exposure combined with a reduction of Highlights.
Here's an image as imported in PV2012:
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s3/v45/p807825582.jpg
Here's the image after an adjustment of -100 of Highlights:
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s11/v35/p868899926.jpg
Whites adjustment has almost no effect here. Here's the same image with -100 Whites added on to the -100 Highlights:
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s3/v40/p697573129.jpg
There is no setting of Highlights/Whites which results in a smooth lowering of the entire top end of the histogram.
For reference, here is the image processed with negative Exposure, showing the highlight regions in this image are not blown and do respond appropriately to Exposure adjustment:
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s11/v36/p740605982.jpg

Here's another example where the image needs significant boost to shadows and lower midtones. In PV2010, this was very easy, using a single Fill Light adjustment; in PV2012, I find it impossible using the basic controls.
Here's the starting point in PV2010:
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s3/v41/p176908911.jpg
Here's PV2010 with +30 Fill Light:
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s11/v29/p131641282.jpg
Now, let's try to get a similar result in PV2012. Here's the starting point in PV2012:
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s11/v27/p238294995.jpg
In PV2012, add +100 Shadows:
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s3/v41/p401076525.jpg
This isn't nearly enough, so let's add +0.75 Exposure ...
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s3/v38/p500162540.jpg
... and then -30 Highlights ...
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s3/v45/p432400034.jpg
This gets us to about the right overall tonality, but the highlights are bad. Adding -100 Whites doesn't help much:
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s11/v30/p424987306.jpg
To summarize the problem:
In PV2010, only a single Fill Light adjustment is needed to get the right overall tonality, with acceptable highlights:
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s11/v33/p62867469.jpg
In PV2012, multiple adjustments are required to get the right overall tonality, with unacceptable highlights:
http://spielberg.zenfolio.com/img/s11/v29/p485133664.jpg
I hope LR4 will not require tweaking the tone curve point-by-point as a workaround to this issue. This would be a deal-breaker for the speed required for my production workflow.

    I am unable to use Highlight Tool in Adobe Reader X. Please suggest me solutions.

    Hi -graffiti
    Thank you again for your 10.24 post.  I tried your suggestions today.  The university computer lab i use has Adobe Acrobat Pro 6.  The OCR function is under the dropdown menu "Documents>>Paper Capture".  This permits conversion a scanned page to searchable text.  Before beginning it asks you to select 1 of 2 Settings defined as:  "Primary OCR Language English", or "PDF Output Style:  Searchable Image (Exact)".  That is the only choice to be made before conversion begins.  After the conversion you can review and correct suspect words on captured pages.  I tried both choices and regardless of which ended up with a document that was searchable, but still would not permit highlighting (I selected text with the highlight tool, clicked and dragged over a captured page, and nothing happened, same result as my earlier post).  If I search for a particular word, all occurrences become shade-highlighted but if I expressly attempt to highlight a word with the highlighter it won't do it. 
    Do you have any suggestions as to how I might further massage the data?

  • Unable to lower brightness to below 95% in GNOME 3 using Fn keys

    Hello,
    I just installed GNOME 3 and this is a relatively fresh Arch install.  I am using a ThinkPad X1 Carbon.
    The problem I am having is that, the Fn+F8, Fn+F9 brightness control keys are not having significant effects.  When I press Fn+F8, the GNOME shell brightness OSD does appear, and the bar does go down a bit, but it won't go anywhere lower even if I keep pressing Fn+F8.  And when I run
    [jiehan@tpx1c ~]$ /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-backlight-helper --get-brightness
    95
    It is always 95.  Using Fn+F9 to raise the brightness, I am able to get 100.
    This is very awkward.  I want to be able to set my brightness to something lower than 95 using keyboard shortcuts!
    However, I am able to lower the brightness to < 95 by issuing the following, and it works:
    [jiehan@tpx1c ~]$ sudo /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-backlight-helper --set-brightness 50
    [sudo] password for jiehan:
    [jiehan@tpx1c ~]$ /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-backlight-helper --get-brightness
    50
    [jiehan@tpx1c ~]$
    If you have any idea on getting the keyboard shortcuts to work, please let me know.  Thank you!

  • What are the ranges for correct skin tones using RGB%?

    What are the ranges for correct skin tones using RGB%?  Used to using a scale from 0 to 255.  But with LR it's RGB  , I know 100% RGB is white.  What do you use for %?

    While I whole heartedly agree that we should not be constrained to hard and fast numbers for accurate skin tones ... LR does offer an RGB color readout ... I am assuming they made those percentages available for the user to monitor the breakdown of specific color values for a reason ... so we could have an indication of how a specific color in an image will be reproduced ...
    I liken this to using a speedometer ... while many experienced drivers in well tuned vehicles can travel on the highway at the prescribed legal speed limit without really monitoring the readout on the dashboard ... however, there are times when they would like to verify the speed at which they are traveling ... the RGB color percentage readout in LR is no different ... just a source of information to verify you are achieving what you desire ...
    Again, going by specific numbers in this instance, I believe, could lead to problems ... there may be times when you may desire or actually need to adjust skin tones ... even though a pleasing WB has been achieved ... the relationship of R, G and B can be used to get you there.
    From what I have researched and put into practice with LR the following seems to be a good starting point and the data was borrowed from "the pixelation" blog:
    R: highest %
    G: middle %
    B: lowest %
    To get a little more specific. In general,
    R: Y + (15-20)
    G: average of R and B
    B: R – (15-20)
    For example, the following values represent common Caucasian skin tones using the rules above:
    * R: 80%; G: 70%; B: 60%. R is 20 points higher than B, and G is midway between R and B. That’s perfect.
    *  R: 86%, G: 78%; B: 70% also reflects a nicely balanced skin tone.  Again, G is midway between R and B, and R is 16 points higher than B. This, too, illustrates a great relationship among the colors.

  • K8D Master-F High/Low beep tones

    Hello,
    Running the system even on bare minimum (PSU, memory and CPUs only)  the board will not post and will only return a constant high then low tone beep code.  Information from AMIBIOS suggests faulty CPUs, but this is doubtful that both CPUs would be damaged (I've tried one at a time, and in different sockets), as their serial numbers are quite a distance apart.
    Anything else I can try? or do I have a dead board?
    Thanks in advance,
    LJP

    Couldn't tell you if its registered DDR, ram isnt the problem though, it would give a ram error beep code running with no ram onboard, yet it still has the high/low beeptones.

    Thank you, the step where I went to tools, options and then selected a product for the application worked. It was a problem with .pdf files. I don't understand how all of a sudden it changed from what had worked all along, but, I changed it back from xps viewer to adobe and all is working fine.
    I appreciate your help!

  • Unable to read 5th channel using cDAQ 9178 with NI 9219 modules

    Dear LabView user,
    I've made a VI for reading the measurements of a couple of LVDT sensors, a load cell and a couple of strain gauges. When I connect 4 of these sensors to my cDAQ 9178 with using 1 slot of NI 9219, then there is no problem for my VI. But if I use 2 modules, and connect the 2 LVDT sensors and the load cell to the first module, and the 2 strain gauges to the 2nd module, then my program only will show the readings of the first module and the readings of only 1 strain gauge on the 2nd module. I've found that there occurs an error for the 5th channel in the 'zero' state. It says my buffer size is too small... How can I solve this problem? I can't work with finite samples because it is a continious measurement. 
    I also have the cDAQ 9171 USB module, if I only connect 4 sensors to this module, the sample rate is high (100 Samples/sec), when I use the same configuration, but connect this with the cDAQ 9178, the sample rate is much lower however I use the same NI 9219 module to fill the slots. Is there some kind of setting I need to make when switching over to the cDAQ 9178?
    I've attached my VI.
    With kind regards,
    Pete

    Dear RavensFan, 
    Thank you for your answer.
    "Have you tried swapping the modules between the slots and see if you still have the same problem or if it moves?"  When I use the cDAQ 9178, I always use the first 2 slots next to the power suply and the usb connection, you mean that I should try for example the 4th and the 5th slot or other slots? I will try this on Monday, and I will let you know.
    About the states machines inside a state: How is it possible then to use several buttons, like start and stop measurement and the 'home' button inside the state "measurement"? Should I make another simple state machine inside this state? 
    What about that 5th channel that I'm unable to read? The problem happens in my "zero" state: to acquire my "zero elements", the loop does the job for the 5 channels for the first 8 samples, after that, it doesn't want to sample the 5 channels anymore, it only does for 4 channels... It's something about the buffer size, but I don't know how to fix that.
    With kind regards,
    Peter

  • Blackberry curve 9320 batt too low for radio use

    I have had this fone since june and have constantly had probs with the battery life.its now sayin battery is too low for radio use even when there is half a white bar.keeps cutting out during calls.I've constantly got to do a battery pull!any ideas??

    Hello guys,
    I found the solution! I have 2 9320 and both developed this problem after 5 or 6 months. Battery too low for radio use even if nearly fully charged. I tried everything what described here- battery pulls, soft reload, deleting apps, pulling battery out with charger connected- nothing worked- just dont waste more time. The solution is easy and its not software problem! Just open your phone- if you dont know how check on youtube so you don't damage your phone and simply clean battery connector in a place where it is touching the mainboard. My bb board was black in that place- came off easily and connectors on mainbord looked like new after. I used zippo lighter fluid and clean cloth. Since then no problem on both my blackberries- never switched radio off again with battery not beeing red. I think there was not enoug power flow through this connector causing me going crazy. Now my blackberries are amaizing again! Hope it helps!

  • "Battery too low for radio use" - Curve 9320

    Since early on my curve 9320 has given me a "battery too low for radio use" warning at very random moments often times when the battery is still halfway into the white area. Sometimes this can be reset manually in the setting by turning radio back on, however this does cut into calls, messages and other activities.
    I have changed the battery recently thinking this was the cause of the issue, however this did not help. I am still getting the error...not to mention the short battery life of this device...this is very frustrating.
    Is this a common problem and if so how is it solved? Any help is appreciated!
    BV

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
    With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
    Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    Remove the battery
    Wait 15 minutes
    Insert the battery
    Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
    It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
    Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
    Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
    The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • I am unable to open encrypted emails using webmail and a CAC reader.  It says "content can't be displayed because the S/MIME control isn't available."  I'm using a Macbook Pro with 10.10 OS and have tried both Safari and Chrome.

    I am using a Macbook Pro with OS X Yosemite 10.10.2.  I am unable to open encrypted emails using webmail.  I have verified my certificates are loaded in the keychain for my military common access card while using a CAC reader.  When I try to view the message it gives me the error saying "content can't be displayed because the S/MIME control isn't available."

  • I just bought my first Iphone the 5S and when I turn on my bluetooth the ringtone for my text, calendar, etc. comes through my Bluetooth instead of the phone. Is there a way to have the tones use the phone while bluetooth is on?

    I just bought my first Iphone the 5S and when I turn on my bluetooth the ringtone for my text, calendar, etc. comes through my Bluetooth instead of the phone. Is there a way to have the tones use the phone while bluetooth is on?

    I would also like this issue addressed.
    I am using a Plantronics Voyager Pro+ and when it is connected to my iPhone 4, email and text sounds are not audible through the phone. The phone just vibrates when a new text or email is received.
    I don't really care if it plays through the headset, but it should at least play through the phone. I tested the headset from a BlackBerry and the alerts play fine.
