[JS][CS3] Insertion Point

HI All

I need to get a hold of an insertion point between 2 characters and add some negative kerning to the characters either side.

I have tried:

myInsertion = myPara.characters[-3].insertionPoints;[JS][CS3] Insertion Point

myInsertion = myPara.insertionPoints[-3];

[JS][CS3] Insertion Point

This will set the kerning on each side of that character to a specific value:

myPara.characters[-3].insertionPoints.everyItem().kerningValue = -25;

If you want to use different values, then:

myPara.characters[-3].insertionPoints[0].kerningValue = leftKern;

myPara.characters[-3].insertionPoints[1].kerningValue = rightKern;

where leftKern and rightKern hold the values you want.

Cheers Dave, once again a top and fast answer.

Works a treat!

RDS Connection for Postgres ''Datasource...

Hi,

I tried to use PostgreSql 8.4 with Fiber.

But my RDS Connection gives always the error

''Datasource not found:java:/comp/env/jdbc/testdb1''

The Server is up and running and I can see the table in Navicat, but I can not access it from RDS/Fiber.

I used the following string:

%26lt;Resource name=''jdbc/testdb1'' type=''javax.sql.DataSource''
?driverClassName=''org.postgresql.Driver''
?maxIdle=''10'' maxWait=''10000''
?url=''jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/testdb1''
?username=''postgres'' password=''mypass'' maxActive=''10''/%26gt;

And driver

postgresql-8.4-701.jdbc4.jar

in tomcat/lib/

What is wrong with it?

Thanks for any pointers!

Cheers!

RDS Connection for Postgres ''Datasource...

Hi,

jupiy!

I found the problem by myself:

It works with

postgresql-8.4-701.jdbc3.jar

(3 instead of 4)

Hope this will help someone!

Martin

RDS Connection for Postgres ''Datasource...

Thanks for the update Martin.?I am glad things are now working for you.

So, to summarize your connections problems it was that you were originally using the PostgreSQL version 4 JDBC driver. The version 4 driver did not connect.?Changing to the version 3 driver did connect and work.

Others should note we are talking about the JDBC API versions and not about JDBC Type 3 versus Type 4 drivers.

TCS2 with PhotoShop 64-bit and Captivate

I don't understand the logic. I bought TCS2 with PhotoShop CS4 64-bit (along with all the other stuff). I run on an XP Pro 64-bit OS through VMware. Why did Adobe bundle these applications together when Captivate cannot run under 64-bit? I keep crashing and dumping at critical times. And yet, I use/need PhotoShop 64-bit.

I understand now that Captivate is not advertised as working under 64-bit. So why did they include them in the same package? From the simpleton's view, one with the other implies that they run on the same platform.

A little miffed.

TCS2 with PhotoShop 64-bit and Captivate

Just a question: did you install the update released end of May for Captivate 4? It resolves quite a lot of issues.

Lilybiri

TCS2 with PhotoShop 64-bit and Captivate

I fully agree. It's such a strange thing to include Captivate in a bundle with 64-bit programs when Captivate doesn't work on a 64-bit system.

As Lilybiri wrote the update will fix some issues, but not all. I am still not able to use Captivate 4 properly on my Vista 64-bit system. I can't record properly, I can't open projects with audio in many cases etc.

Another thing that annoys me is that Adobe didn't post information about this on the Captivate 4 system requirement page. It just says it's ''certified for 32-bit editions'', but not specifically that ''The product will not work on 64-bit editions''. I use many programs that are only certified for 32-bit but works perfectly on my 64-bit system. Actually in the 2闄?years I have been using my Vista 64-bit system I have only encountered one program that doesn't work and that's Captivate 4..

Style sheeps and the drop caps

Here it is :

I would like to be able to create a style sheet that enables me to have the first letter in my text bloc to be a a drop cap of a different font, size, kerning and colour than the rest of the text in the bloc (see pic hereunder). What I don't want is for this to be applied to anything other than the first letter in the bloc, irrrespective of how many paragraphs there are in the bloc. In other words I do not want this style to be applied to the first letter of each successive paragraph in my bloc.

Simple question, but I'll be damned if I can do it.

Any light shed would be most helpful.

Style sheeps and the drop caps

Firstly create a new Character Style with the font, colour etc. that you want to use.

When you Edit your Paragraph Style go to the Drop Caps section of the dialog box.

Set your drop caps the amount of lines and characters and choose the character style that you just created.

Style sheeps and the drop caps

You have to create a specific paragraph style with a drop cap and another for the rest of your text.

You can based the first one (with the drop cap) on the second. So if you make any changes in the second they will also affect the first pargarph style. So no big deal.

Also use caracter style for your drop cap.

You can use also the feature ''next style'': in the paragraph style with the drop cap choose the name of the second in the ''next style'' pop-up.

If you select all your text and make a right-click you can choose to ''apply this paragraph style and next''. In one click you will format all your text閳?/p>

Thanks guys, let me play around %26amp; see what happens. I'll be right back with the verdict.

Perfect reply, detailed, to the point, and 100% accurate.

I'd been faffing with this for too long.

THANK YOU !

PSE 7.0 Effekte werden nicht angezeigt

Hallo zusammen,

nach der Installation von PSE 7.0 wird bei den Effekten nichts angezeigt.

Das gilt f鐪塺 alle dort zu zeigenden Effekte.

-Filter

-Ebenenstile

-Fotoeffekte

-Alle

Programm ist mehrfach neu Installiert worden ohne Erfolg.

Hat jemand eine Idee woran es liegen kann.

Besten Dank im Voraus.

Franz

PSE 7.0 Effekte werden nicht angezeigt

Liegts evtl. an dem zu bearbeitenden Bild?

Wenn du im PS z.b. CMYK-Bilder oder Bilder mit indizierten Farben bearbeitest sind deine Filterm鏋歡lichkeiten auch eingeschr鐩瞡kt.

Versuch mal das Bild auf RBG umzustellen.

Ansonsten, was hast denn alles gemacht und wann funktioniert was nicht?

Gru鑴?/p>

Christoph

PSE 7.0 Effekte werden nicht angezeigt

Danke Christoph f鐪塺 die schnelle R鐪塩kantwort.

Bilder sind auf RGB Farben eingestellt. Effekte werden trotzdem nicht angezeigt.

Wenn kein Bild geladen ist m鐪塻sten die Effekte aber auch zu sehen sein, so war es zumindest bei einem Bekannten.

Kann man die Effekte irgendwie laden?

oder noch einen anderen Tipp

MfG

Franz

leider nicht.

Besten Dank f鐪塺 die Tips.

Eventuell hat ja noch jemand eine Idee f鐪塺 das Problem.

Gru鑴?/p>

Franz

Hallo,

schau mal oben in die Menueleiste '' Fenster '' und mach dort jeweils einen Hacken, dann sollte alles zu sehen sein.

Peter

Hallo Peter,

Danke f鐪塺 dein Tip, der Haken ist gesetzt gewesen.

Auch nach entfernen und setzen des Hakens hat sich leider nichts ge鐩瞡dert.

Franz

Hallo,

kann es sein das die Filte u. Effekte nicht instaliert sind / oder in einem falschen Ordner gelandet sind ?

hier mal ein Link mit Grants Tools. Dort siehst du auch die Ordner wo die ganzen Sachen abgelegt sind.

( Bitte Versionsunterschiede von PS beachten )

ggf. findest du nun die L鏋歴ung. Ansonsten kann ich dir auch nicht weiterhelfen.

鑴篵rigens: ich habe mir Grants tools instaliert und funktioniern bestens.

Peter

Hallo Peter,

danke f鐪塺 Deine Nachricht.

Ich habe PSE7.0 normal installiert, da m鐪塻sten doch die Filter u. Effekte dabei sein.

Wo diese installiert sind weis ich leider nicht und wie die einzelnen Dateien hei鑴絜n auch nicht.

Da k鏋歯nte ich ja dann nach suchen lassen.

Dein Link ist leider nicht sichtbar oder wurde von Adobe geblockt.

Nach Grants Tools muss ich mal Goggeln. Danke f鐪塺 den Tipp.

Meine Struktur sieht so aus.

Gru鑴?Franz

Schau mal in C:\Programme\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 7\Presets\Effects

ob dort die Datei Filter Gallery.8bf enthalten ist. Im Ordner Filter sollten auch einige Dateien enthalten sein die die Endung 8bf haben.

Wenn nicht dann sind die Effekte nicht instaliert worden oder fehlen ganz.

Mehr kann ich dir dann leider auch nicht mehr helfen.

Peter

Bei mir ist der Ordner Effects mit der Datei Filter Gallery.8bf im Verzeichnis

C:\Programme\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 7.0\Plug-Ins

Habe den Ordner mal in Ordner Efects kopiert, wird aber leider immer noch nichts angezeigt.

Die Datei Filter Gallery.8bf hat 鐪塨rigens eine Gr鏋氳劷e von 3.456 KB.

Der Ordner Filters mit 29 Dateien ist bei mir auch in

C:\Programme\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 7.0\Plug-Ins

Habe den Ordner auch mal in Ordner Efects kopiert, wird aber leider auch nichts angezeigt nach dem Programmstart von PSE7.0

Im Verzeichnis Presets habe ich jetzt folgende Ordner

Und im Ordner Plug-Ins folgende

Der Ordner Grants tools habe ich gestern eingef鐪塯t, habe aber da nur eine ''6er'' Version gefunden und die Installation war auch nicht eindeutig.

Daher wird auch von der Erweiterung nichts angezeigt.

I need Photoshop 7 or later for my...

I am a Senior Citizen from the UK and I spend a lot of time fundraising for a Deaf/Blind/Rubella Children's Charity.

I recently bought a web graphics package which basically needs the Photoshop v7 or later package, to customise the graphics.

I was told that because it was so old and out of date, that I could get Photoshop 7 for free.

I have since found that is not the case and the price of even version 7, is beyond my reach.

I wonder if there might be anybody who has upgraded to the later versions,

who might have a version 7 or later copy, that they could donate to me?

In return, I could offer a New Product on two discs, that provides over 25,000 Window Truetype Fonts?

I also have a lot of Information products - reports, ebooks, software etc. and I could also give you some as well?

Alternatively, does anyone know of a lower cost product, that will do the same job please?
