    Ctrl J or Cmd J- to float a copy of the layer
    Change blending mode on new layer to soft light
    Gaussian blur the new layer

    Bildverarbeitung is “Image Processing” in English, but my bridge CS4 does not have anything like that.

    In any case use save for web, that will remnove your paths. You can record an action, that will save to web, and run that as a batch command from photoshop rather than from bridge.

    Another solution is you can make pdfs from bridge, if you are sending your work out for review. In Bridge CS4 use the output dropdown on the top right to make PDFs.

    If you psd images are not 8-bit then you will have greyed out filters. Look at your filename it should be (RGB/8)if ti is (RGB/16) or RGB/32) then choose image >> mode >> 8-bit to convert to 8-bit. Newer versions of Photoshop have more filters that work in 16 or 32 bit mode.

    If that is not the solution, let us know if you are Mac or PC, and try rebuilding your prefs file.

    type >> type on a path >> type on a path options >> flip checkbox

    you can also correct this by using the direct select tool, and click down on the I-Beam and move then release the mouse button this to the opposite side of the path.

  • good question, I remember running into this before.

    Try imageready, I believe there was an option to use layer names.

    If it does not let us know how you would want the files to be named,a s that might help locate a solution.

    Either that or I downloaded on utility on the pc for file renaming that had more features than batch rename in bridge.

    There are a couple of ways to do this easily in After Effects without keyframing individual layers. Try Vector Paint in AE.

    Render your lens flare on a layer filled with black (all values zero for RGB), and then set that layers blending mode to screen. You can then move your lens flare around.

    Unfortuantely, to get rid of the lens flare you would have top retouch it out, unless you have a backup of the original file.

    January 25, 2010 at 11:22 pm in reply to: How do I enlarge a fill pattern?

    Use the adjustment/fill layer (4th icon on the bottom of the layers palette) and choose pattern, do not use the fill command.

    Double click on the pattern adjustment layer, and you will get the scale dialog. You could also scale the layer, but I find the pattern adjustment layer to not slow down your computer and give you better control over editing ability. For example you can click and drag to move the pattern around and it still tiles perfectly.

    I did not mean that Photoshop is not accurate in counting pixels, but that color range cannot be set to choose exactly the value of your target color adn no other color.

    For example if your foreground color is 255R 255G 255B and you do a color range selection with fuzziness set to 0, color range will not only select the exact color of 255R 255G 255B, but also colors close to that value if they exist in your document.
