What is pad edit layer?

I am using a ground plane with "+" style contact to parts. With spoke width set at .010", contact to parts in many places is too lean, but its just right for others. This fact prevents me from widening the spoke width to solve teh problem.
I have tried adding copper traces manually, but the ground plane
resists my efforts by redirecting the traces or refusing to connect them
to the plane altogether.
How do I increase ground plane connection to some parts without forcing it on all of them?
Thanks very much, Tod

Hi Tod,
Your title and and question don't seem to match. I've answered the question in the main content in Trouble working with ground plane...
As for the Pad Edit Layer question, Ultiboard allows you to define custom pad shapes, as opposed to the standard circular, rectanglar, etc shapes. Creating a new Custom Pad Shape (click Tools > Database > Database Manager, then click the New button in the parts list, and select Custom Pad Shape), will create a document to edit the pad shape. The document will have one layer, the Pad Edit Layer

Editing Layer Style without object border

Hello,
Is there some way to hide object border when I'm editing Layer Style? In Photoshop CS5 I can just click on some other layer and then twice on layer what I want to edit.
Thanks!

As silly as it sounds to be, I found a way out!
I decided to change the value again in the <Layer Style> on the same Action (ie Main WM Name 70 copy), and RUN <Automate> and on second RUN the <Layer Style> screen doesn't pop-up!
I just couldn't believe my eyes and did some rounds of testing! And it works:
a)Firstly, I will change the <Layer Style> to any value and saved it
(Just to test it, I Run <Automate> and the <Layer Style> screen pops-up at each photo)
b)Then I change again the <Layer Style> to the actual value I want
c)Run <Automate> without the <Layer Style> screen pops-up
To test further, oddly enough, if I change the <Layer Style> value the 3rd time, the pops-up screen appear again! And to overcome the same problem, I have to change the value 4th time, and the problem disappears.
So simple solution (at least for me) and yet I cracked my head for two weeks to overcome it!
Thanks for your time, c.pfaffenbichier.

Detect what the default edit form is for a document library and list using jquery

Hi,
So what I have done is with some jquery made it that when a files are dragged and dropped into a document library and there is a required field such as "Metadata" the EditForm.aspx opens up for the user to fill in the required column. I am building
the url up from what I have found in SharePoints DragDrop.js file. This is all working perfectly I just need to find a way to dynamically find what the default edit form is for that document library as I have just hardcoded like this...
g_currentControl.strSiteUrl + "/" + this.ListName + "/Forms/EditForm.aspx?ID=" + id
So I need a way to figure out what the default edit form is instead of hard coding like this in case someone creates a custom_editform.aspx or something for one of the lists.
Thanks

Adobe Premiere Pro Video editing layer disappeared

I was working with Adobe Premiere Pro and then the video editing layer disappeared, it left me with Audio editing layer tho.

Try dragging down this line:

Now the bad news. In my "Print to Video" pop up, if
I select "Color Bars" , "Black", or any other option
and take out my bars and tone and slug from the
timeline, the print to video does not print anything
to tape except for a nice nothing blue. I don't
even get my actual timeline video printed to tape.
Jerry,
You are a genius! Man do I feel silly. So just for the benefit of others who might read this post, I did exactly as you said, and of course when I restarted FCP, I had to identify my Firewire NTSC setting for the drive. This time, instead of leaving my tapedrive offline, I left it on and immediately saw on my drive monitor the video coming off of my timeline.
Every thing works perfect. I now have a clean timeline with just the content I'm working on and don't have to worry about bars, slugs, post black. Just a few checkboxes and I'm ready to send my tapes off. Really nice feature.
Thanks!

What does the edit multiple frames option in the Timeline do?

or imagine you import large images sequence (200 hundred) and

The edit multiple frames options comes handy in such case...

What mouse pad size works best? I'm new to Illustrator.

What mouse pad size do you like to use for graphic design and Illustrator? I'm new to Illustrator! Thanks~

99% laptop and mouse with firms I worked for, but never with mouse pad.....however I just started using an optical mouse with my laptop for my AI + PS work and need pad for mouse to work.
I know the typical compact size is restrictive for me, but I think a 12" x 14" (called standard) will be fine. I know the answer to many of these questions is it depends :-). But that's great info for me, too!

SQL Server Software ISO, How to find out what is the Edition and Version of the SQL software before starting installation

Hi All-
Before starting installation, I would like to find out What EDITION and VERSION is the SQL Server Software ISO.
Please note this is not to find out what version is the installed sql server but before the installation: Is there a note or abrv. that describes what kind of Edition and version is the ISO?
Detail explanation is appreciated.
Thanks.
belayzeleka

@Balmukund - Thanks for the input - That one is a nice blog!
But assuming you can`t change the Product Key value (you are not provided that number, as you know it gets populated by itself) can you find out
what implies the corresponding edition? If there is a folder where this reference is store, could you provide the full file path where this folder is located?
The ideal solution would be a way to find out what the Edition
is befor we start installation.
Thanks!
Also just to add what I came across:
The SQL Server 2012 installation software comes with pretty much all edition in it, that kind of makes it difficult to easily identify what edition is the specific ISO, but when
one downloads from MSDN one must downloads the
right edition either Standard,
Enterprise, etc so that when you install it, it installs whatever edition is downloaded.
The best source would be whoever downloaded the software.
Also, before going too far, you can find out what edition it is being installed right before the setup wizard finishes on the
License Terms page (Microsoft Software License Terms Page) and if the edition is not the one you intended to install, you can cancel it there and everything will be rolled back- no hastle.

What can open/edit an .ai file TEXT layer (besides Illustrator)?

so, i have CS6 on Mac (OS Mavericks).
my Mac took a nose dive recently. long story super short... i have a new mac & re-installed my CS6 on it.
but, in order to launch Illustrator, it requires that i install JAVA too. and i just really don't wanna do that. picky & trivial of me? maybe; but it's a desire i have. and that's a different topic i don't really wish to get in to in THIS thread.
additionally, i've just grown more & more irritated & unhappy with Adobe's apps (also a discussion for a different thread).
so i just thought i'd see if there were any new vector graphics apps out there that could fulfill my needs. the most important of which would be to open my pre-existing .ai files (check: there are several good ones - like Sketch, iDraw, Bluetail, Intaglio, Inkscape, etc) AND be able to directly edit pre-existing text in its layers -BUT- none of them seem to be able to edit text layers (and yes, i have the same fonts). they all appear to open the ai file as a raster image or vector image, but no layers nor editable text.
so i'm just wondering if i've missed something or if it's true - that the proprietary ai format is unusable fully in any other app - or is there one i've missed or a method i failed to find. (?)
thanks much.

The only application that seems to be able to open at least nearly up to date AI files is Corel Draw. It should open CS4 or maybe even CS5.
But even then some types of objects won't be fully editable.

21.5" i7 vs 27" i5 -- which is more powerful? What about video editing?

I'm trying to decide between a 21.5" iMac with 1TB and i7 and the next step up -- the 27" with an i5.
My budget really was only for the 21.5 -- which comes out at 1699 -- the 27 would be 1999 --
My main current needs are: Animation (Flash, etc), CS Suite (40 layer Photoshop), other programming (HTML, CSS, Canvas, etc), and music (8 analog in, effects, Logic). I hope to start doing some HD video work (artistically) -- but due to focusing on music haven't really done much with it.
The person I spoke to at the store said if I were going to do "serious" video editing (Avid) then the 27" with the 1GB of memory on the video card would be better -- for video editing that is. He said that for everything else (CS Suite, etc -- and I believe he said Final Cut as well) the i7 with the 512MB video card would be better.
So -- here's the rub -- I'm on a limited budget and I think it might make more sense to put the extra 300 into RAM (they offered to bump the RAM to 12GB for $150 extra -- is that way too much?), or into an add'l monitor (I'm not taken with the glossy iMac screen as a main screen -- and that's also why the 27" screen wouldn't do much for me). I do want to do some video production, but I don't plan on getting Avid or anything like that anytime in the foreseeable future -- I'd probably be doing 10 min video pieces and for what I currently need the computer for the i7 with more RAM is much better. I just don't want to feel totally stupid down the road.
So:
21.5" iMac, 2.8 GHz i7, 1TB drive, 12GB RAM, Radeon 6750 with 512MB RAM
vs
27" iMac, 2.7 GHz i5, 1TB drive, 4 GB RAM, Radeon 6970 with 1GB RAM
Thanks

Similar question ... looking at nearly identical cost: 21" i7 2.8 vs. 27" i5 - both with the 512 6750 video card. (I'll buy my RAM upgrade on-line - will take either one to 16GB.)
Both have same video memory. I don't feel I need the bigger screen size if the processing power is a better value for video (can always add another, larger monitor).
This will be a video & audio editing computer. I have a TON of old Hi8 home movies to move to digital for archive and eventual editing, will capture via firewire Digital 8 Handicam.
My main new video projects will be <10 min - primarily for web delivery. Business sales/education and training. Pretty sure I'll want to upgrade with FCPX. I'm a believer in that you can always compress quality down, you can't enhance poor quality source up.
I have a background in video production (20 years ago), no expreience with NLE, but want to get back in.
I guess the i7 power will hold up longer and allow for growth of my abilities/uses of the software down the line ...
Maybe I've answered my own (& the OP's question) ...

MapViewer Editor - Unable to Edit Layer

I am using MapViewer 11.1.1.7.x and in Editor I am able to bring a layer into the work area. However whenever I click the options Layer is Editable or Selection Occurs on this Layer my data layer disappears.

Any ideas where I can look to get this feature to work?

Photoshop CS5 x64 crashing while editing layer styles

Hey there,
I searched and seeked through the whole interweb, but hardly anyone seems to have ever had such a problem, so I am guessing this is the right place to ask and hopefully be helped . Short version is: Photoshop CS5 (x64) is constantly crashing when editing a layer style.
I recently installed my CS5 Design Premium on a new laptop (Fujitsu Lifebook AH351) and am having severe problems with Photoshop CS5. On first run everything was fine, and it kept that way for a while. Now everytime I try to edit a layer style Photoshop crashes immediately. I do not need to alter anything, just open the layer style, press OK and Photoshop is gone. I can workaround by resetting preferences which works until next reboot, no matter if I change ANYTHING on the settings or not. Had tried this on the initial PS release and on the latest update (12.0.4). Once I reset settings again, I can work on layer styles again. Did anyone of you have a similar problem or a hint at what I might look?
The Lifebook has a decent feature which I suspect to somehow be the culprit of this case: it has an onboard graphics unit and a separate GPU (nVidia GForce GT 525M) which can be added in on a program-to-program basis. Photoshop indeed recognizes it and lets me activate OpenGL features as well, so from that point it seems fine. The internal GPU cannot be disabled since you connect your monitors to it.
Some data about my system:
Fujitsu Lifebook AH531
Intel® Core™ i5-2410M
RAM: 8 GB DDR3 1333 MHz
750 GB SATA HDD 5400 U/Min
Windows 7 Home Premium x64 (up to date)
NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 525M with 1GB VRAM
Photoshop CS5 x64
no plugins in use/installed
no settings changed, not even shortcuts
Thanks in advance

Funny replying to myself repeatedly. It seems I have found the problem with no solution in sight. My findings are as follows:
I am running two external monitors on my laptop (HDMI and VGA), the laptop screen is off. If I unplug one screen, Photoshop is fine with me. No crashes.
In nVidia settings you can choose what GPU is being used for specific programs. Changing it to the internal one, Photoshop is fine with me. No crashes. Crappy performance.
I came to the idea of it having to do with dual monitors in my long way through help forums, and one thread here (on problems with 4 monitors) suggested to disable the ScriptingSupport.8li via re-naming which didn't work for me nonetheless. Now it seems up to me whether I'd love to farewell either my powerful GPU or my second monitor for working with Photoshop.
Still, does anybody have a notion of what else I could possibly do? I won't assume Fujitsu to offer a fix for this, since it is hard to track down precisely where the problem comes from.
All the best

Edit: BTW, Windows settings confirm both screens are handled by/connected to the internal GPU, no matter what Photoshop is using ultimately. That seems like normal behaviour, and I cannot switch since the two ports are on the internal card.

What is color burn layer?

I was reading one of techniques for removing blue haze from pictures.
The initial two steps were as follows:
1. Click on your color burn layer
2. Select all and copy the color burn layer only to the clipboard
I have never used "color burn layer". So I have no idea what "color burn layer" is and how to create it.
Please asvise me how to creaste color burn layer.
I have photoshop CS5 (with Windows 7).

It is not a tutorial. Somebody asked the question in a photo forum.
I now lost the original webpage but I copied the anwer as follows:
Click on your color burn layer
Select all and copy the color burn layer only to the
clipboard
Open a Hue/saturation adjustment layer but make no corrections just press OK.
Alt click on the Hue/adjustment layers mask this will make the screen go white.
Edit> paste... this will paste the color burn layer to the mask.
We must reverse the mask now so press Ctrl+I or Image>Adjustment>Inverse
Click on the adjustment part of the hue/saturation or Alt click on the mask again.
Now reduce saturation by moving the saturation slider to the left.
My question is how to careate color burn layer in CS5 photoshop.

Can't select or edit layer mask in CS5.1 extended

In our class, we have photoshop CS5 on MACs
I started a project in class which involves creating a layer mask. I was about done with the mask, but brought it home to finish. I opened the file on my WIN XP running photoshop CS5.1 extended, which I installed this morning. In class I was able to click on the mask to select it, then use the brush to edit the details, painting black or white as needed to refine the edge.
When I brought the .psd file home and opened it in the newer version of Photoshop, it won't allow me to select the mask for editing. I selected the layer then clicked on the mask thumbnail in the layer pallette but didn't see the corner outlines that usually show when the layer thumbnail is selected. When I tried brushing on what I thought was the mask (of the layer selected) I got the pink overlay as is usually seen in quickmask. (fore and background colors were black and white).
Does v5.1 behave differently with masks from v5.0? I didn't change any of the factory default settings and in class it is standard practice to reset to the default when we begin.
any ideas?

sweet. That did the trick Noel.
I didn't turn quickmask on. I just loaded the file from my flash drive and first thing I tried was to select the layer mask. I'll have to try another file to see if PS is starting in quickmask mode itself.
I had an inkling I was in quickmask mode from the pink painting, but hadn't selected it and didn't know about the q hotkey. newbie here just a few weeks into the intro course.
again, thanks for the fast reply. I just might be able to finish this assignment yet tonight.
