Using a file as a source of images for a slideshow in CS6

I was wondering if someone might be able to help me create a slideshow that uses a file to pull images from rather than calling on an individual image source code. As it is right now, I have a basic working jquery slideshow. What I am wanting to get to though is instead of having the numerous <img source=..../> code I could instead have the slideshow automatically pull images out of a designated file. Then, to add images, I could just import the pictures into the designated file. I am very new to using Dreamweaver and any sort of coding in general, so I do not even know if this is possible or worthwhile. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

You can't pull files from files. But you can certainly pull files from a designated folder or directory on your server. This example below uses PHP code with the jQuery Fancybox Viewer.

How I can export files from CS5.5 to send for further editing in CS6 and no lose quality?

how I can export files from CS5.5 to send for further editing in CS6 and no lose quality?

If all you need for further editing is the contents of your Timeline,
then you should follow Harm's sage advice.
Lagarith Lossless Video Codec
http://lags.leetcode.net/codec.html
Ut Video Codec Suite
http://www.videohelp.com/tools/Ut-Video-Codec-Suite
But, if you will need all of your source media files to continue the edit,
you should consider using the Project Manager.
Trim or copy your project
By using the Project Manager, you will be continuing the edit
with the original media files and there will be no quality loss.
Be aware that once you have edited the project in CS6,
it will be problematic (but not impossible) to return to edit in CS5.5.

In CS4 Use of File Place Does Not Center Images

I have been using CS3 for about 1 1/2 years, so of course had to give CS4 a try. I downloaded the trial. I immediately had an issue with File > Place.
I often use File > Place to add additional items into a document. I believe the expected functionality of File>Place is that the file should then be centered in the document.
Here is what I have done:
+ Create a 12"x12" document at 200ppi (I have also tried to create a document at 2400x2400 pixels)
+ Use File>Place to add a square 2400x2400 pixel image (JPG file) into the document
+ The added layer is now offset ever so slightly in the new document.
+ Further observation shows that the horizontal reference point is at 1202 (screen shot attached), thus creating an offset from center. I change it to 1200 and sure enough the paper is centered perfectly. I thought maybe changing it once would make it the same next time, but that is not the case.
+ When I used the File>Place command, I was zoomed out (25%), and the entire image was viewable on screen. If I zoom out further, say 8.33%, the offset is 1206.
I am able to duplicate this on two different computers with the following configurations:
Computer #1
+ Windows XP Professional Version 2002 SP2
+ AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6000+ (3.01GHz)
+ 4GB RAM
+ nVidia GeForce 8600 GT, driver version 6.14.11.5819
Computer #2
+ HP Pavilion dv9843cl Laptop

+ Intel Core Duo processor T8100 (2.1 GHz)
+ 4GB RAM
+ nVidia GeForce 8600M GS with 512MB DDR dedicated graphics memory, ForceWare version 167.43
+ Video BIOS version: 60.83.4f.00.22

Any ideas?????
~ Kathleen

"Place" ..... It is not all the easy to understand how place works without studying its behavior. Often it will work in a way your not expecting if you do not understand how it works. There is a setting in Photoshop preferences Resize Image during Place. Un Checking this setting does not mean the image will not be resize nor does checking this setting mean that it will be resize. On top on top of that the seems to be something in Photoshop on My system that keeps changing the setting to the checked state.
What the heck am I writing am I trying to make this worse. No I'm not. To prove that I first tell you it is very easy to center position a placed layer in an action after the Place step add a step select all the two layer>Align layers to selection>Horizontal Center then vertical center. The deselect...
Place....
There is a lot going on remember in Photoshop a Layer can be any size Larger/smaler/same as the canvas and can have any aspect ratio. If the placed image has more pixels them a canvas side size and the preference is checked the placed image will be transformed to fit within the canvas size. If not checked the placed image will transformed to the same dpi resolution so no pixels will be changed. The only time a place image is not transformed is when the the preference is not checked and the placed image file has the same dpi as the current Photoshop Document. In this cast the image is placed in at 100% size be it smaller/larger/same as canvas size.

"Use RAW files with external editor" greyed out for Photoshop CS2?

I've just upgraded from iPhoto 5, and the "Use RAW files with external editor" option in the advanced preferences is greyed out when I select Photoshop CS2 as my external editor (back in the General pane).
It works fine when Preview.app is selected. I can understand that pre-CS2 Photoshop wouldn't be available, but CS2 is capable of editing RAW images.
Has anyone been able to get iPhoto 6 to send a RAW image to Photoshop CS2 using this preference? I've written an Applescript to do it in iPhoto 5, but I'd rather use something cleaner...
15" PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Works great with Photoshop Elements, opens with Camera Raw. The issue is you can't save it so that iPhoto gets the changes.
You have to save it and then re-import. I tried all permutations of saving it in originals and modified folders in the library. No luck. The only thing I didn't try is to save it as a jpeg over the top of the full sized one iPhoto created on import.

How to use the same (selection) paths in multiple images for batch processing?

I have a whole bunch of photos I need to batch process, but, when creating an action for this, I stumbled upon the problem that the paths I selected with the pen tool, and saved under the "Paths" tab need to be in every image for to be used in the action. I did try to solve it for some time, but couldn't figure out. Any ideas?
Many Thanks
Carlos

Batch processing usually involves using actions you have recorded. In Action you can insert Path that can be used during processing documents. Path have some size so you may want to only process document that have the same size. Look in the Actions Palette fly-out menu for insert path. It inserts|records the current document work path into the action being worked on and when the action is played it inserts the path into the document as the current work path..

Errors when using "Limit file size to" when exporting images

When I try to use the "limit file size to" option in Export, I often get at least one image that doesn't export, and I get a dialogie box like the image attached here:
As I am exporting in batches, it geats really messy and risky too!I have tried various file size options but that doesn't seem to be a factor.
Any ideas on solving this, or is it an unfixed Lr bug?!

How to use a file transport proxy service as trigger for a webservice

Hi,
I've implemented a alsb file transport proxy service. This proxy is watching a common directory and detects new files. After detection, the proxy move them in an archive folder.
After that I want call an external webservice with the filename as input parameter.
How can I comfigure that with the alsb console.
best regards
Oliver
with the to extract the filename after it was renamed by the proxy service.

How do you invoke/ instantiate the file based proxy service. Does it just run on activation in sb console? Does it continue to detect files or does it stop after detecting one file?
Also what is the format of the URL that points to the file folder.
For Ex: I have a folder named "TestFiles" on the C:\drive of the server.

Using a (tcl) script as source of data for VI

hi,
novice here, under a deadline.
we would like to display data coming from running a shell script. the data is a stream of lines, each with a datapoint as a floating point number.
bash$ ./my.tcl
12.5
15.2
18.3
17.2
14.3
the first tutorial, with a waveform graph and a stop button is what the display should look like (we'll enhance it later).
for input, though, instead of getting a simulated sine signal, we would like to read the output of the my.tcl script.
we found one example, but it calls wish (the tcl interpreter), once and it ends. we need to read a stream continuously.
all this under labview 8.5 for linux (under centos 4, if that matters).
we want to get the basics going. so that is the basic question.
later, once the basics are working, we would like to split what comes out of the script in channels.
the script will spit this out, e.g.:
port0: 10.2
port0: 11.3
port1: 11.2
port0: 13.4
port1: 15.2
you get the idea. multiple channels will be bundled in the standard output and they will need to be demultiplexed. they may come in in bursts (e.g. three readings at a time from port 0, two from port one, ...etc.).
we have some amount of control as to what the output of the script looks like.
we just got started two days ago with labview, and it's cool. however, connecting it to read from the external world in the way that it exists now is what we have not been able to do yet.
any help will be deeply appreciated, as we adopted this solution after dumping the atteempt to use tcl as the front end view, since we would like to do more sophisticated things down the road and labview is great for that.
thanks in advance!

You need to do that with pipes.
There is some code to do that (OGPipes) but it was never finished (as far as
I know). I recently used it, but it has only support windows. Not much
helpful for you...
What I get from the Linux resources on the web, pipes are a lot easier to
implement then under windows. I might need to do this in a few weeks myself,
but don't have a Linux machine at the moment. Making a library wrapper in C
is probably the easiest way, altough you should be able to call the Linux
libraries for pipes directly from LabVIEW.

Wiebe.

Problem using "Photo to Movie" and "Toast 8 Titanium" for dvd slideshow

I used photo to movie to compile a 20 minute collection of photos for a relative's funeral. All the files were still photos (no video) but I added 4 songs (that I had in iTunes).
When I go to "create movie", I normally select NTSC for toast, but when I do so toast gives me an error saying "filename.dv is an unsupported format and cannot be imported".
I just went throw this process a day ago for a wedding slideshow (using same computer and workflow) and it worked fine!!! What could be causing this?
I have downloaded all the latest updates of both toast and photo to movie.

I finally figured out (after 8 hrs of troubleshooting) that there was one photo in there it didnt like. When I finally found the photo (by process of elimination) and replaced it, everything worked fine. Just wish the error messaging would be more specific to help me locate the problem!

Using delimited file with xsd

hi:
Please help...
I'm trying to use ALDSP with delimited file as data source. However, I need to specify an element with attributes in the xsd. And I got the following error:
"The validation root element of a Delimited File schema should have a non-mixed complex type whose content model consists of a singleton sequence of simple-typed singleton or optional elements."
Does this mean that I can't have attributes in the xml produced by ALDSP when using delimited file as data source? If it's possible to do this:
delimited data:
year,cust,sale,return
2001,23,5000,200
2002,24,2400,100
produced xml:
<root>
<data year="2001" cust="23" sale="5000" return="200"/>
<data year="2002" cust="24" sale="2400" return="100"/>
</root>
thanks!!

thanks for the help!! I do have another problem using delimited data. Somehow the <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> line is repeated for every record when I do the testing:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ld:myrow xmlns:ld="ld:delimited">
<year>2001</year>
<cust>23</cust>
<sale>5000</sale>
<return>200</return>
</ld:myrow>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ld:myrow xmlns:ld="ld:delimited">
<year>2002</year>
<cust>24</cust>
<sale>2400</sale>
<return>100</return>
</ld:myrow>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ld:myrow xmlns:ld="ld:delimited">
<year>2003</year>
<cust>25</cust>
<sale>15000</sale>
<return>0</return>

Is there a way to remove the repeated <?xml> tag?
thanks!!

Can I use mp3 files from different domain as the feed?

Hi..
I have just created a new podcast here:
http://artistsofliving.com/?feed=podcast
I would like to submit the podcast to iTunes sometime soon...
However, I'm wondering if they will reject it because the feed lives on 'artistsofliving.com', whereas I keep the media mp3 files on 'livinginthepresent.com'... a different domain.
I own the mp3 content and both domains- I'm splitting the media from the website for bandwidth reasons.
Is this ok? If this causes a rejection straight out is there a way to indicate that I own the material fairly?
Thanks!
-rich

There's no problem about using media files from any source: the feed just has to reference them (the URLs have to be 'absolute' - i.e. including the http:// and the server name - even if the file is on the same server as the feed anyway). I don't see the fact that some files have different URLs leading to accusations of copyright breach.

How to use "choose file with prompt" command?

I need to use "choose file with prompt" command and I want give user possibility choose ONLY images (jpeg, png, gif). So, I write like this:
choose file with prompt "Please, choose images for processing..." of type {"JPEG Image"}
But this doesn't work! - All files (including jpegs) are dimmed, and user can't choose any....
So, how can I filter JPEGs, PNGs and GIFs?

I have found, that most of images on my computer has missing file_type, I don't know why..... so "type identifier of (info for (choose file))" also doesn't work properly.
The only one way that 100% works is use Uniform Type Identifier (UTI) -- details here: http://www.huw.id.au/code/fileTypeIDs.html
thanks.

Using a file to imput filter values

Hi I am new to CR. Our past tool had the capability of using a file with the all the values for a filter. I have not been able to find this on Crystal Reports. The list can be quite long so I do not want to be inputting the values into the filter one by one.
Cheers
Colleen

if you create your parameter as type dynamic
you can then select a file to import the values.
i have used xls files before.
if these values wont change this a good way to go, if they do change such as customer name etc. i dont recomend using that. it is a lot of maintenance.

Attaching Attributes to Image For Loading to SharePoint Document Library

We currently have a need to create a searchable document library which will consist solely of images. The standard metadata for a file/image won't suffice in this case. We have some custom attributes that will need to be searchable.
Essentially, we will have a library of receipt images for expense reporting purposes. We get these images from a third party who handles all of our expense reporting. There are two large zipped files we receive: one file contains all the actual expense report
"data" that was processed that day(amount, date, client, job, etc.) and the second file contains all the receipt images for those expense report items. Each data file contains data for individual expense reports, and each expense report is assigned
a unique ID. Each line item in an expense report is also assigned a unique ID. Lastly, each receipt image for a line item of a specific expense report is also assigned a unique ID.
The zipped image file only contains images. There is a main image file - this contains several smaller zipped files. Each of the smaller zipped files contains all receipt images for a specific expense report. Each image file name is comprosed of three parts:
The expense report identifier, the unique image identifier, and the expense report line item identifier.
So, to put this all into perspective:
On Thursday, we received an image file named extract_images_p006320452r3_20140904171423
This file contained images for the following unique expense reports:
The compressed file 95FB8C488519427793FC contains the following receipt images:
The "data" file - as mentioned before - contains the actual info about the expense and image. These include: date of transaction, date approved, vendor, amount. GL code, type, function, client, project, billable or not, and several other attributes.
All of this information - including the location of the images - is stored in a SQL Server database and then placed in an SSAS cube.
The images are related back to the underlying data via the expense report id, and line item id.
What I need to be able to do is to somehow "tag" these images with all their underlying attributes, load then into a SharePoint document library, and make them searchable.
I have already figured out that I would need to create several SharePoint lists based on the available values in my OLAP cube (essentially a dataset each for clients, vendors, etc.). The part I have no idea how to accomplish is how to tag each image with
its respective information.
All the pertinent info is stored in the database tables, just don't know how to attach it to each image.
Hopefully, this made some kind of sense. If anyone has any idea on how to even remotely accomplish such a thing, your input would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
A. M. Robinson

You will have to develop a custom solution to do this. I am assuming you have taken the first steps to define separate document libraries for the expense reports and images along with site columns and contenttypes. You would define the site columns based
on the data you want to search on and assign these to corresponding contenttypes. So basically a contenttype for expense reports and receipts possibly. You would link the two contenttypes using the expense report id.
Your custom solution would have to break apart the zip files and upload and index (set site column data) for each file. Then the user could search on the expense report id and get all the files associated with the expense report.
An alternative could be to use one document library and have all the files uploaded into their own document set (folder).
