Vanishing point problems?

I am using CS3 on a 8 core Mac Pro with 16gb ram and a 6 drive RAID for scratch. Right now I am running Leopard but I had the same problem with Tiger. I am having issues with vanishing point, 90% of the time after I will get this message "The operation could not be completed". This happens a couple of seconds after I select this plugin. I know that it can be sensitive with large files, but usually my files are only around 500mb. I tried flattening the files and I still got the same message. If I copy this flattened file and paste it into a new document vanishing point will usually work, but if I continue to work on the file I will end up getting that message again. This is with only 5 layers and a file size of roughly 13"x16" @ 240dpi. If I open the same file in CS2 vanishing point works. I also have two other macs, a 2.5 Quad G5 and a dual 2.0 G5. I have this same problem on these computers as well. Of course I tried all of the usual fixes, repair permissions, trash prefs, etc., and still have the same issue.

I had Photoshop CS3 10.0.1 unexpectedly quit on me about an hour ago while working with Vanishing Point on a fairly simple file--2 layers, one layer with the art I was using Vanishing Point on. I had just created one plane and was pulling out a new plane from it and ZAP! This is on a Mac Pro 3 Ghz running Tiger 10.4.11, with 4GBs of RAM. My post from yesterday was from a similar Mac Pro running Leopard 10.5.2, 5 GBs of RAM.

  • Problem with Vanishing Point

    hello!
    I've got a problem using Vanishing Point filter in Photoshop CS4. When I load this filter an error message pops saying "The operation could not be completed"
    I attach a screen cap of the error. Somebody can help? thanks.

    I run into this problem with Vanishing Point on about a quarter of the files I run the filter on. I can initially create a grid and do one transform, but the next time I try to run the filter I get the error, "The operation could not be completed". Then the error seems to stay attached to the file. I can run the filter on another file, but even if I close and reopen the file, I still can't run the filter. Even doing Save As and renaming the file doesn't rid it of the error.
    This has been the case since VP was introduced. I'm now on CS4. MacPro Dual-Core, 8GB Ram.
    I've tried changing the memory allocation to 55% with no change.
    I see that this has been addressed before in the Forum with no solution, Chris Cox care to wade in?
    This is a potentially valuable tool if it were implemented better.

  • Vanishing Point Filter Always Crashes Photoshop CS5 - Anyone else have this problem?

    19 out of 20 times I use the vanishing point filter in PS CS5, it ends up crashing the program. This usually happens when I try to adjust the angle of a new plane. Does anyone else have this problem? I need to use this feature for my job. Are there any alternative filters or programs I could use instead, or could I somehow fix the plugin?

    Someone reported this way back around when PS CS5 was first released I think.  I don't find the thread but as I recall the advice at the time was to update the display driver on the system...  Visit the web site of the maker of your video card (e.g. nvidia.com or ATI.com) and download/install the latest driver release that matches your hardware and operating system.

  • Vanishing point – Marquee tool – problems with pasting images

    For some reason when I paste my selected image into the Vanishing Point tool it comes in with a marquee that is exactly 4 times the size of the image that I originally selected and copied. This completely throws the perspective off as for some reason it thinks my image is 4 times the size it actually is. If anyone could help it would be very appreciated.

    You have to be quick...Very quick. Here is a video showing what should happen:

    I installed the 11.0.2 update and I still have teh BEX64 crash.  I have also tried starting PS CS4 and pressed Cntrl Shift & Alt at the same time.  It still crashes when I get to the point of moving text or a plane in a grid within Vanishing Point.

  • Custom keyboard shortcuts for Liquify and Vanishing Point filter interfaces in Photoshop CS4?

    Is there a way to set custom keyboard shortcuts for Liquify and Vanishing Point filter interfaces in Photoshop CS4? When I change my keyboard shortcuts preferences for Photoshop, they don't change for these filter interfaces. Is there another way?

    what is the problem ??
    I tried to change the shortcut for the Vanishing Point and Liquify from
    Edit -> keyboard shortcuts(button) -> keyboard shortcuts (tab) -> filter (tab)
    and you will find these filters :
    double click on it and make a new shortcut
    but it MUST be Ctrl + (any letter) or you can make it Ctrl + Alt + (any letter)
    but if you made it just one lettre like S for example
    you will can't make a shortcut.
    hope I understood what you ment ???

  • Best practices for using Vanishing Point tool?

    Hi All,
    I'm wondering if anyone can give me some guidance on using the vanishing point tool...
    Basically I've tried using the vanishing point tool (in PS CC) on a couple of projects and it always takes me a hell of a lot of time, mainly fiddling around to get the correct proportions.
    A perfect example is a project I'm working on today, I have an exhibition stand which is pretty straight forward, all flat, rectangle surfaces. I have the correct dimensions from the supplier of the exhibition stand which I've designed the artwork to scale. Now when I try to apply the artwork to the relevant sections of the stand using the vanishing point tool, the artwork stretches then I have to resize it but each time I resize the artwork it seems to get dissorted and the artwork now looks poor quality and there is loads of space above and below the artwork. This is really puzzling me.
    I've seen a design from another company and they have applied the artwork to the stand with no problems by the look of things, it looks crystal clear so I'm obviously doing something wrong.
    If anyone could point me in the right direction, which I understand could be difficult to do because it's hard to determine what I'm doing wrong just from this post. Therefore any tutorials that throughly explain how to effectively use the vanishing point, would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks for your time

    Hi Richard,
    If you need to configure dynamic pricing that may vary by tenant and/or if you want to set up cost drivers that are service item attributes, you should configure Billing Tables in the Demand Management module in 10.0. 
    The cost detail functionality in 9.4 will likely be changed to merged with the new pricing feature in 10.0.  The current plan is not to bring cost detail into the Service Catalog module.

  • Memory Error when trying to paste art into PS CS4 vanishing point grid

    I get a memory error when trying to paste art into PS CS4 vanishing point grid.
    "Photoshop.exe application Error The instruction at 0x7755886b referenced memory at 0xffffffff. The memory could not be read. Click on OK to terminate the program"
    I have plenty RAM, HD space, and virtual RAM/Cache in PS prefs.
    Any suggestions?

    Try disabling the Aeros theme by selecting one of the Windows Classis Themes under desktop customization.  This seemed to fix the problem for me.

    What video card do you have?
    Check the web site of the maker of your video card for an updated display driver.  The one that came installed with Windows (or was downloaded via Windows Update) is often not the best choice.

  • Vanishing Point Help!!

    Hi, I'm using Photoshop CS2 and have a really annoying problem with the vanishing point filter.
    I am using vanishing point to add different carpet tile patterns onto the floor of a room set image. To do this I am creating the pattern in a seperate document as a birds eye view (this is quite a large file). I then copy this, open vanishing point and paste.
    The annoying thing is after opening photoshop this method will work for the first 2 maybe 3 patterns but on the fouth the vanishing point filter just wont open. If i try to copy just half the pattern it will open and as i go on it then wont even open with half the pattern copied so i have to copy a quater of the pattern until it gets to a point where i have to restart photoshop and 'hey presto' it will now copy the full pattern over into vanishing point!
    After each pattern I complete i make sure to purge the history and clipboard and i have no other programs open at the same time.
    So my question is why will it work for the first three but not anymore?!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Jeremiah,
    Please mention the exact version of Photoshop that was used to create the VPE and also the version of After Effects that you are using with the details of Operating system.

  • Photoshop CS3 vanishing point help

    i'm having a bit of trouble with the vanishing point filter.  this is the first time i've ever really used it to any extent so i must be overlooking something trivial or maybe it's just a program error...
    anyway, whats happening is i'm trying to apply art to a box using the vanishing point filter, there is no problem with creating or editing the planes but as soon as i paste the artwork from the clipboard and try to position it to the front of the box it only wraps around two of the planes correctly and the third plane is cut off in an odd location and doesn't match up with the rest of the "box" i can't figure this out and i'm rather unsure what i should do about it seeing as how i've been unable tgo find support for this problem.  any help is greatly appriciated.  thanks.
    -Greg

    I think it's how it calcualtes the plane area in relation to the original layer size vs. the "texture" resolution. What if you simply try to do this in multiple steps? I mean, some touchup is inevitable, so why not make it easy on you? The plane setup will remain active during a session, so it should be easy to make the required adjustments...

  • Vanishing point filter error

    Hi, I am using cs3 on a mac. Suddenly the vanishing point filter is not working. I get an error message when I try to select the vanishing point filter that the operation could not be completed. I tried the vanishing point filter on two different PSD files and both times I got the same error message so the error is not specific to any one file.(The filter had previously worked on these two files before the problem started.) I then reset photoshops preferences by holding down the option, command and shift keys when launching photoshop, but am still getting the same error message when I try to open the filter on the same two files.
    I then opened a file that I had used the vanishing filter on in cs2. When I chose the vanishing point filter, the filter opened after a message that "saved planes have been updated to the current version of photoshop. Converted planes cannot be opened with previous versions once they have been saved." I clicked ok and was able to make changes to the image that had originally been created in cs2 with the vanishing point filter.
    What is causing this problem and what can I do? Thanks.

    As I posted before, I would use it more if it had some of the functionality I need. I need to be able to change the opacity of the image I'm pasting so I can see EXACTLY where my overlaid image will register with the bottom image. VP seems to require a ton of processing and I wonder if maybe the software is handing off some of this work to the graphics card for calculating. Maybe this would explain that apparently not many people have run into an error that gets embedded in the file. Although my G5 is Apple stock, not super-modified.

  • CS3: Vanishing Point won't work

    I have a fairly large PSD (130MB) that I need to run the Vanishing Point filter on. I did it once, no problem. Now when I try I get an error:
    Tried on two different machines, each with CS3 and 10 GB RAM.
    What gives? Is there a less helpful error message in Photoshop?

    I have had similar issues and this has worked for me. Copy the background layer, then create a new document, you will not need to do anything to the size because PS will use the size of the file you just copied. After it opens paste your image. If you need any other layers you can drag those over as well, but if you don't need them before you go into vanishing point I would wait until after you have run vanishing point just to be safe. For some reason creating this new document seems to do the trick, but I have found that sometimes, after I have worked on a file a while, the same thing will happen again. So you have to do the whole copy, new document thing again.

    PS: I have this issue on all three of my computers, Dual 2ghz GD, Quad 2.5ghz G5, and 8 Core 3ghz Mac Pro. I have 18 gb ram on my 8 Core and my scratch drive is a raid 0 and consists of 6 15k drives striped over 2 channels. So it's not an issue with scratch or not enough ram.
