Which layer is the target layer?

How can I determine which layer among those in the ->layersDescriptor structures corresponds to the target layer?
In photoshop cc x64 pc
-- all the read channel numbers seem to be unique
-- all channels have ->target=1
(edit after more work with layersDescriptor)
the information presented has a lot of errors and omissions, such that it's impossible
in principal to display layers the same way as photoshop does.  Invisible "pass through"
layers are listed as visible.  Layers with "stroke" special effects are indistinguishable
from normal layers.

Layers with "stroke" special effects are indistinguishable
from normal layers.
Here is how to find stroke (keyFrameFX, descLayer is starting layer descriptor, in this case code also look if effects are visible)
hasKey=0;
    error = sPSActionDescriptor->HasKey(descLayer, keyLayerEffects, &hasKey);
    if (error) goto returnError;
    error = sPSActionDescriptor->GetBoolean(descLayer, keyLayerFXVisible, &effVisible);
    if (error) goto returnError;
    if (hasKey && effVisible){
            error = sPSActionControl->StringIDToTypeID("classLayerFXVisible", &runtimeClassID);
            if (error) goto returnError;
            error = sPSActionDescriptor->GetObject(descLayer, keyLayerEffects, &runtimeClassID, &descEFFECTS);
            if (error) goto returnError;
            // FRAME
            error = sPSActionDescriptor->HasKey(descEFFECTS, keyFrameFX, &hasKey);
            if (error) goto returnError;
            if (hasKey)
                error = GetFrameAttributes(index, info);
            //etc.

    photoshop cs6 error "could not use the type tool because the target channel is hidden.  happens when im typing in photoshop, go to another layer and then come back. can't alter text at that point.  i really need to get thsi figured out. thank you.

    You may have answered my question. I AM using the 64bit version of Illustrator CS6. I had no idea there were bugs in it that affected paths copied and pasted from Illustrator to Photoshop.
    A bit more about what I'm trying to accomplish... I'm trying to follow Deke's tutorial (http://www.deke.com/content/dekes-techniques-018-creating-a-3d-pie-chart) which is already difficult since so much has changed between CS5.5 and 6, but then on top of that, I keep getting errors!
    So I created the pie chart exactly as he shows and copied and pasted into Photoshop exactly as he does. Before submitting this post, though, I tried drawing just two very simple triangle shapes, copying them both and pasting them into Photoshop as a shape layer. The shapes weren't overlapping, but they were a part of the same shape layer just like the pie chart tutorial.
    Thanks for your help. If there is anything else I should try before just giving up because of the 64bit bugs, please let me know.

  • Identifying which Layer is a template from Printing Company?

    I've taken over a graphic design position, and am having a it of trouble with something simple. For a 28 page catalog, the printing company has told me that my predecessor's uploaded files (PDF's exported from .indd) contains their (the printing company's) template guidelines (rules for bleed, trim etc.). It looks like the standard procedure before I took over was to download the rule/guideline template from the company and simply apply it on our own InDesign file as a layer. They have told me that one of the layers in my InDesign file still contains the template guidelines, which show when printing. My predecessor thinks that the culprit layer is in the Master page, and while the two layers on the Master are there (one titled "Rule Border" one titled "Mask-1") one is a small blank box (moveable) and the other is a large (page size, locked) blank box. When I hide these layers or deselect the "Print Layer" or "Show Layer" options, artwork/content is deleted from multiple pages. Is there any way to identify which layer is which, or to view the properties/contents of each individual layer (specifically these blank boxes on the Master page)? OR is there a better solution? PLEASE HELP

    Often when printing companies have a template for people to download it is usually not an InDesign template file.
    Is is often a graphic; an EPS, PDF,Tif, or Jpg that can be placed on a layer to make sure elements are placed correctly.
    Since this is probably one of these, try looking in the Links Manager for something with an unusual name that might be the template.
    The Links Manager can tell you on which page it resides.
    If you select the linked file in the list and click the page # to the right or the Go to Link icon at the bottom (Page icon with an arrow) it will go directly to the page and the item will be selected.
    We don't know how it was originally placed, it might not even be on a Master Page. It might have been placed on Document pages, maybe even more than once.
    Once you have determined where it is, the quickest way to hide this is to create a completely new layer and call it something like  "Template - HIDE THIS!"
    Drag the selected template image (and only the template image) to the new layer in the layers panel.  As Joel Cherney has show above. the highlighted item on the page will have a colored dot to the right in the layer.
    Drag this dot to the Template layer and the linked item will be moved there. You can then hide or delete the template layer.
    It is also a good idea to LOCK any template layer since locking it will prevent you from accidently placing or moving elements onto this template layer!

  • How to make the TARGET of clone stamp 2 simultaneous layers?

    Does anyone know how to make the TARGET of the clone stamp, multiple simultaneous layers? Or maybe more accurately, how to clone stamp the top layer and have the layer underneath doing the exact same cloning simultaneously. Or maybe a workaround? I've tried linking the layers, and multiple layer selection with no joy.
    Here is what I'm trying to do. I'm duplicating a layer, then applying LucisArt to one of the layers to greatly exaggerate local contrast. Though I'm not using LucisArt as the final, I want to use it to assist in smoothing blotchy skies, banding, and finding hidden camera sensor dust spots.
    I want to clone stamp on the LucisArt layer so I can watch my progress, but also have the underlying layer doing the exact clone stamping at the same time. Thanks ... Aaron

    Thanks everyone.
    Dennis, You are correct. I know how to selectively apply the LucisArt filter, that's not what I'm looking for. I want my end result to have NO LucisArt effect at all. I'm trying to use the LucisArt layer to drastically exaggerate flaws such as camera sensor dust, AND I want to correct these flaws on the LucisArt layer where they are obvious. The LucisArt layer is only for reference. But the trick is to get CS3 to do to the non LucisArt layer, exactly what I did to the LucisArt layer.
    So imagine I have this otherwise nice photo, but the photographer (this happened) had an amazingly dirty sensor. Half of the dust spots I can hardly see, but the client wants it super clean. So I duplicate the layer so I have two exactly the same. I then apply a strong LucisArt filter the top layer which reveals all the spots including many I couldn't see on the original layer. I'd like to fix all these spots with the clone stamp tool on the LucisArt layer where I can see them easily, then toss that layer. The original below would have all those spots fixed, but sampled from it's own layer and stamped to it's own layer.
    As it is, I can click the LucisArt layer on, place my finger on the spot, then turn that layer off and hopefully see the spot and remove it from the layer underneath. Very tedious indeed.

  • Composition's Horizontal Transition of Target Destroys Functionality of Content Beneath the Target

    I customized a Featured News composition to create a vertical sliding menu in which the target transitions horizontally upon rollover of the trigger.  However, no matter which layer I place it in, the state button (with link and dynamic states) which I have placed in the target area looses its state functionality in preview mode of the site (even when the composition target is in the hidden, pre-rollover state).  However, when I change the transition method to "fading" this problem does not occur.  So, there seems to be some bug with the horizontal transition of this composition, and possibly others.  If anyone knows the fix so that I can keep the horizontal transition effect, I'd appreciate it. 

    Hi Abhishek, I was wonder if there is a fix to this issue as Im having the same problem and have spent hours trying to resolve without any success! I have also made a menu with a composite widget and within the composite widget I have placed another widget to ack as a flyout box with images. Unfortunately this makes my active boxes (which have a hover effect applied) below inactive even when the menu is closed. I have a link for you to see http://no13project.businesscatalyst.com
    If you scroll down the page the menu button appears, then if you scroll down to the first products page you will see a sofa product image. If you hover over it shows that it is active. Now if you click the menu button notice that the sofa image is no longer active and can't be actioned. If you click on the 'spaces' text in the menu you will see the fly out menu showing three different images that are links. Its this area below which becomes inactive even when they are not expanded.
    Please please help really need to get this back to the client!
    Many thanks

  • Which method does the actual bulk fetch from database in ADF?

    Hi,
    I'm looking to instrument my ADF code to see where bottlenecks are. Does anyone know which method does the bulk fetch from the database so that I can override it?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I think you need to be more specific. ADF is a meta
    data binding layer that delegates data queries to the

  • The estimated project size is larger than the target media chosen

    I am at a loss for trying to author a project using Adobe Encore.  I first tried to author the project using version CS2.  When attempting to export I received the following message:
    "The estimated project size is larger than the target media chosen.  While this is an estimate, the project may fail to build."
    I have authored hundereds of projects in the past, but have never received that message before.  I first thought that the problem was with the version of Encore I was using, but I received the exact same error when trying to author the project with Encore CS5.
    The project itself has one menu, a motion menu, and one video file.  The video file last 152 minutes, and I was attempting to export that to a dual layer DVD.  I have since tried exporting the file using Adobe Premier CS5.5 using a variety of settings.  I am trying to export it to a DVD-2 file, with the match soure attributes being set to the highest setting.  The setting on the main concept MPEG encoder is set to 5. I have tried exporting the file using both constant and varaible bit rates.
    When I recently exported the file using a contant bit rate of 6.5, I still had 650.4 MB remaining on my Encore project.  I still received the same error about the project size, and so I am thinking that something else is wrong.
    I have even exported the video file as an uncompressed AVI file, and then tried encoding it again using both Adobe Premier CS5.5 and the Adobe Encoder.  I still get the same error message about file size.
    Any help and/or suggestions about how to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    Using the Imgburn product worked! It also helped me figure out what the real problem was...
    As it turns out, some single-layer DVDs had been mixed in with my dual-layer DVDs. I feel very foolish about this.  All of my discs are printable, and so there is no indication written as far as what their capacity is on them.
    Encore can be a bit vague in identifying a problem such as this. For example, I can set the settings to plan for a dual-layer disc, and it will display a graphical status indicator with that capacity in mind. When I saw the original file message error I honestly believed that there was a problem with the encoded file instead of the type of disc itself.
    Imgburn instantly displayed the discrepancy in the type of disc I had loaded and the needed capacity for the type of project that I was trying to create.
    Thanks again for your help!

  • Removing the "target server" from process chain jobs

    Dear SAP Community,
    Please note we are on BW version 3.5
    We have a very large number of process chains that are used to load data in the production environment. Many of those process chains have a "target server" specified, so that the jobs will run only on the central instance.
    A new application server has just been added to the environment, and we want to remove the "target server" definition so that the dispatcher will be free to load balance the process chain jobs.
    We can see the attributes for each process chain are stored in a table called RSPCCHAINATTR.
    Please let me know: can we update the value of field SERVER in table RSPCCHAINATTR, to set it to blank using SQL-PLUS ?
    And then can we run a /$sync to bring these changes up into the application layer ?
    This would save tons of time & manual effort, and it would set the target server to blank for all of the process chains at once, instead of clicking manually so many times to clear the value for each process chain.
    Please let me know if we can take this approach ? Is there any chance of the process chains becoming inactive by doing this ?
    We want to set the "target server" = blank in all cases, instead of manually clicking into each and every process chain.
    Please let me know, thanks.

    Check tcode RSBATCH, If I'm not wrong all process types are assigned to central server. Remove that server name and save.
    Now, If u execute process chain, system will prompt you assign server/host name. To skip this follow the below.
    Again use RSBATCH, under 'Background and Parallel Processes' tab, click 'Switch Off F4 Popup for Server/Host/Group', enter * (star) under Users for 'Users for Whom NO Server/Host/Group Popup Should be Processed'.
    Now, If u execute process chain, it should run on either of servers.
    Since u added Appln Server, best bet would be creating a server group. See the below link.

  • Which field is the workflow trigger for a Contract Agreement ?

    Greeting everyone,
    I am not sure if this has been answer before or if this is the correct forum. If not, apologies in advance and do direct me to the appropriate topic/forum.
    I have an inquiries with regards to Contract Outline agreement and workflow trigger.
    Based on my company configuration, the trigger is based on the changes in value and release strategy.
    What I am unsure is that which field the workflow-trigger checks?
    Does SAP checks the field "Target Value" in contract header, or  the sum of net value in each of the contract items?
    Thank you

    Hello Sek,
    In contracts, the target value is used for the release strategy determination and not the net contract value. If you maintain a target value in the contract header, this value is set in field CEKKO-GNETW to determine the strategy. If no target value exists on header level, a cumulation of the target values of the items is carried out and used for the release strategy determination.
    Regards,
