Unable to view two different image files at once in PS CS4

For some reason I am unable to open two separate image files and view them both on my screen in Photoshop CS 4. My goal is to combine two versions of the same raw file in order to expand the tonal range. I want to stack the 2 images and then use a layer mask to blend the best parts of both versions. The problem is that when I open the second version, the first isn't visible until I close the top image. I want to view both images on the screen and stack them but can't do that because I only see one. Can some kind soul tell me what I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks for responding. This works really well. I did learn that if I go to Window>Arrange>Float All in Windows (thanks to another email from the forum) that I can view both images at the same time. I sure appreciate your help. You have no idea how I've agonized over this darn thing. Thanks again, Gladys
Please view this as an Option to perform your task. There are smarter ways to do this but this is what I do...
*) I pull up the image file (say pic_01) and adjust the levels in the area of the photo I want.
*) I then open from the RAW doc and it is now sitting as a Tiff in Photoshop.
*) I rename that file (such as pic_01Top) and SAVE. (But keep it open)
*) I go back and reopen pic_01 in RAW and adjust the other properties I want.
*) Open that image from RAW.
*) Perform a ctrl c to copy.
*) Close pic_01
*) Do a cntrl v to copy that over pic_01Top
*) Go to Layers-Layer mask-Hide all. (This also give you your "free" layer mask)
*) Go to my brush tool.
*) Use the black over white box arrow to reveal or conceal your bush strokes.
*) Flatten file when done and Save anyway you wish.
Hope this helps.

How do I view two "different" images in the Develop module so I can match exposure ?

Seems like a dumb question, but for the life of me cannot figure this out ?
Thx

I am not aware of any view mode in the Developer module that is similar to the Library module's Compare View mode. If the images you are trying to adjust were taken at the same time under similar lighting, you can select the settings of the image you adjusted and copy them to the other images. Select the image whose setting you want to copy and then click on the Copy button found in the bottom left side panel. This will display the Copy Settings panel. Insure the setting you want to copy are checked and any you don't want to copy are unchecked. Click the Copy button. Next, select one or more images you want to copy the setting to and click on the Paste button (bottom of left panel). The selected setting will be applied to the selected images. You can also perform a similar function when in the Library module but this time, look for the Synch Settings button found at the bottom of the right hand panel. Button names are changed but the dialog is essentially the same. Photos can be selected either in grid view or the film strip.

Two different video files in the same clip

Well, I've been looking around and have been wondering if it's possible t have two different video files play at the same time, both being shown at the same time, for example, what I would like to do is; I have two separate video files, one of me playing rhythm on a guitar, the other of me soloing, and would like the to play at once, both being visible at the same time, one on each side of the screen.

if you're using iMovie vers≤6, look at the plug-in makers for some PIP (picture in picture) plug-in...

Sync audio with two different video files to create split screen

I want to sync two different video files to a high quality audio file and create a split screen from there in Final Cut Pro X. Help please?

I'm following along at home, Tom, trying to make sense out of your instructions. (Editorially: This kind of operation is among the reasons I thoroughly loathe FCPX.) This would have been easy in FCP7. Perhaps it's actually the same amount of work (you are describing operations in FCPX I have not bothered to try yet—too scared) but it's far more direct the old way: Find sync points for all three files, stack them up in a timeline, nudge till precisely matched, apply effects.
But I'm glad you're here to help us through this stuff!

How to set two different welcome-file to different servlets in web.xml

Hi friends,
Can some one help with web.xml file
I have to different servlets in applications.
I want to set two different welcome files for my two different
servlets in web.xml
Please, can some one give me sample code to achieve this.
Here web.xml code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC

          <welcome-file>calldetailsindex.jsp</welcome-file>
     </welcome-file-list>
</web-app>
I need this fix immediately. Your help will be really appreciated. Thanks in advance.

First of all, my understanding is that you need to have a Servlet 2.4 complaint server to do this...Given that, you're supposed to be able to simply specify the Name of the servlet as the welcome-file to get it to work. For example:
Your servlet section:
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Controller</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.company.ControllerServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>Now you would add the following to your welcome file list:
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>Controller</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>Note that you use the servlet-name value from the servlet definition, NOT the url-mapping from the servlet-mapping section.
Please note that I cannot verify this as I am running a 2.3 server at home. When I get to work Friday I can test on a 2.4 machine. However this shouldn't take you more than a minute to test.
Note that I did try this on the 2.3 compliant server and it did NOT work (as I expected)...
HTH.

How to add two different images on photoshop cs5?

I was learning about the layers and masks and i seen that i have to have two images under each others under the layer option pannel, i tried many times to add images but it always shows in two different pannels as the folloing image I want to add two different images in this pannel to make any changes i want
Thank you.

When you click on that icon Photoshop will add a revail all white layer mask and it will be the Photoshop target. Begin painting with black over the image part you wish to hide. Should you paint away something you want change to white paint and paint it back. Lower the brush opacity to fade in and out the image part.
If you use ALT+Click on that icon a hide all black layer mask will be added as the current taget and hide all of the layer paint with whits to show.

Downloading two different text files using gui_download

Hi Folks,
I have two internal tables.itab1 and itab2.Generally in most cases I have to download only the data in itab1 as a text file using Gui_download.In some cases if a particular condition is satisfied I need to download both itab1 and itab2 data as two different text files using gui_download.To achieve this I had called the gui_download twice as I have to pass two different internal tables.
But I am getting only itab1 textfile and not itab2 textfile.
In the selection screen I am giving the path as c:\..
Kindly let me know where I am going wrong.
K.Kiran.

Hi
You keep the both files in a ITAB and in the loop of that Itab use GUI_DOWNLOAD to download the two files
data: begin of itab,
file like rlgrap-filename,
end of itab.
In initialization event
put the two files into this ITAB.
loop at itab
call function gui_download.
endloop.
check like this

Comapre 2 same channels from two different dat filea

Hi ,
I want to compare the wave forms of two same channels names (in my sample data which is in attachment, the same channel names are S1KNSLLE00H3DSZP) from different dat file(S2100044 and S2100041) .
Load the 2 dat files from navigator.
Come to report and open two 2d axis systems to see the wave forms of two different channels ( Like in attachment result.jpg)
I need an autosequence to do the same for all the channels for 2 dat files automatically.
Attachments:

result.JPG ‏158 KB

Hi RSH,
I appreciate you posting 2 data files and the jpg, but I'm afraid I still have lots of questions before I can advise you. You sent 2 *.dat files which each had 1 channel in them named "Data", which is different from your email text and the jpg you posted. Will your data sets typically have many channels in them? Your posted *.dat files had no time channel and the "Data" channel was not a waveform channel, yet the 2 different "Data" channels were different lengths. Do you want to plot your channels vs. the array index all the time (as is shown in your jpg)?
Do you want to have N sheets in REPORT, one for each channel? Why don't you want to have both "S1KNSLLE00H3DSZP" channels as curves with different colors on the same graph-- wouldn't that make it easier to compare them?
When you drag over the data channel onto a REPORT graph, you will get a reference like "[1]/Data" or "[2]/Data", which is exactly what you want to compare the "Data" channel from 2 arbitrary data files (note that the file name does not show up in the channel references). So it seems to me that the REPORT layout you sent a jpg of already satisfies what you're asking us to create for you. Why do you need a script at all?

Unable to open photos (missing image file)

When trying to double click on a photo in iphoto, I get a black triangle w/ exclamation point inside. I can view the photo as a thumbnail, just can't open it. I downloanded and installed iphoto library manager and tried rebuilding library. After it was complete, I got the following error message...
"An error occurred (1602). The photo could not be transferred (The image file is missing from /user/....../desktop/iphoto/library/Masters)". Of about 6000 photos, this error occurred for 4,000. The rest work just fine. I have recently run all the recommended updates for the computer. Please advise.

When using iPLM to rebuild the library did you have the checkbox checked to Scavanged orphaned photos checked?
If the masters are not there then your only recourse is to restore a backup copy of the library made at a time before this problem occurred.

Unable To View Thumbnail NEF Image

I just purchased a new laptop using Windows 7. Unable to view thumbnail image in Pictures once folder is open. Installed CS2, changed nearly all defaults to open images from Windows to CS2. Bridge works fine, Suggestions please.

What camera(s) produced the NEF images?
You need the appropriate Adobe Camera Raw plug in to view them.
See: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html
I don't think you can view raw images in the Picture viewer, you need Bridge.
And if the camera is newer than CS2 you will need the DNG converter.
