After Effects :: Ray Traced 3D Displays Only Bounding Box
Mar 18, 2013
After going through all the 5070 drama this problem still exists. Any 3D layer be it text or shape layer shows as a bounding box only (see below). There is no difference when I add any kind of light. CPU mode works fine albeit slow. I have reinstalled AFX twice and tried various different drivers only to end up with the same result. Layers do, however show in Fast Draft but I am still unable to render using the GPU.

I bought hd radeon 7770 for video composition. But I am not able to find Ray-traced 3D , I could see only Advanced 3D renderer. Do you think the problem is with the GPU? And will it work with GTX 650 1GB? I built the comp just for video production. Here is my PC configuration
Processor: AMD FX 8320 3.5GHz
Motherboard: MSI 970a-G43
GPU: MSI HD Radeon 7770
RAM: 1 GB Corsair 1600 MHz
PSU: 550W

When I turn on "Ray Traced 3D" I get an error message. CS6 and CC. "Out of page mapped memory for ray trace tracer. Your project may exceed GPU limits. Try closing other applications. Try updating CUDA driver. (5070::2)"
I have 6 gigs VRAM and 32 gigs RAM.
The project is 1080 with one bitmap image a vector graphic and some type.

Just bought a MBP Retina. Maxed out with everything they've got there at Apple. Here's a screen shot of what my preferences look like. Two things stand out: 1. the GPU option says "unsupported" and 2. of the 2GB of Usable Memory, I only am using 732 mb. I had all applications closed and and no external harware plugged in. how I can use more of my memory?

After Effects CS6 is crashing when I change to Ray-traced 3D.I am building my first test 3D text. I have gotten to the end and changed to ray-traced and it keeps crashing. I set the quality to 48.
I have:
Windows 7
Quad core
16 GB Ram
ATI Radeon HD 4200 graphics card
Did i set the quality too high (48) ?Is my card insufficient ?Does my card have GNU ?Do I have any on board memory with this card ?

How can you mask Text that is a 3D layer, using Ray Traced 3D?
The mask function does not work when it is made into a 3D layer, in to add an Extrusion to it.
It works fine when it is not a 3D layer, or just in Classic 3D. What other ways might there be to acheive this?

I am modelling a livingroom and I am using Daylight system and mental ray renderer and that all works ok.
But when I want to add standard lights, with ray traced shadows, I can place them as usual in the scene but it doesnt illuminate the scene at all, no matter how high multiplier.. Not in the model nor in the renders.
I also ticked enable hardware shading, enable shadows and enable ambient occlusion.

I imported the scanned image to illustrator and then used object->image tracer and converted it to a vector graphic with area fill and no stroke. So far so good.
I now want to erase little mistakes in the drawing, that look like this
if I use the eraser, this happens:
so the path is weirdly bend around the stroke of the eraser, which obviously isn't what I wanted to achieve. In all the videos I watched about the eraser, it worked fine and if I just create an area with the blob brush and erase a part of that, that works fine as well. What's so different with the traced image?

When I trace an image in CorelDRAW (v15), I get of course a banding of colors, but unfortunately the regions with different colors are displayed with very thin white lines as borders. This look is retained when published to pdf. How can I get rid of these white borders?
I attach a photo for you to see ...

I am trying to make a crack wall texture effect on some text in illustrator cs6.
I have some crack texture photoshop brushes I really like, so I brushed on a blank psd canvas and saved it to PNG with transparent background.
I placed that in illustrator and image traced it so that it would create the paths for the cracked effect, but I can't seem to get it to make the paths for me.
I'm trying to do this so I can use the outlined brushes to erase the text layer with the traced crack png, removing the proper paths from the text layer so the text layer is now transparent where those cracks are.

I want to take the traced star (and maybe the text) to use in a video project. I need to make individual objects that I can fill and animate in AE or Premiere. Is Illustrator the right app to use? And where is a tutorial on how this is done?

I want to remove color from images to prepare them for being autotraced in AI.
Is there an advantage to using Image > Mode > Grayscale vs. Image>Adjustments>desaturate vs. Image>Adjustments>hue saturation and dropping down the saturation vs.
Image>Adjustments>Threshold for this purpose?
Do these all generally do the same thing, or would one of these result in a better job of turning my image to black and white with higher contrast?

Just wants to get some simple "animated words" traced with a white background (instead of the background being "dimmed" looseleaf paper)
To explain, here's a comparison example of what I'm trying to achieve:
Imagine the phrase:
EGG-CELERATING THE PACE OF FERTILITY
Where the letter E is:
The vertical part of the E is a stalk of Celery
The horizontals of the E are cartons of Eggs.
Where the "P" of Pace looks like a basic line drawing of a "pacing shoe"
...with perhaps "anxious" looking eyes drawn inside the shoe
...yet still look like a P
...and the remainder is [roughly] like my attached letters on Dim looseleaf background. (see attached)
How would you achieve the EGG-CELERATING phrase? I bet an expert could achieve this within 1/2 hour or less, can't they? So I'm trying to achieve the same as the above:
...albeit it's a different phrase, and different BASIC pics.
...in other words, it's mostly outlined-alphabet, but including 4 basic pictorial-letters, and some more letters containing "eyes"
P.S. Regarding the attachment, note that I placed that in a Layer which I called Layer1
Then tried selecting it & changing background to White But was unsucessful.

I have traced an image and expanded it. I'm now trying to add the scribble effect to it but it does not work. I assume it's because it's not an object but I'm new to illustrator so I'm not sure.
The image is here: [URL] ....
I basically want to add texture to the black eagle only.

I have traced this image from a Jpeg into a Vector to colour but how can I change the black out lines into other colours. When I right click the mouse with an outline selected the colour appears around the line but there is still a fine black line in the centre of it. I want to change the actual outline into another colour

After using Powertrace to trace a bitmap, I zoom in to the outline and can only see one line.
However when I export as a DXF, my cam program always says it is removing overlapping outlines. Thing is there are quite a few double outlines left (very close to each other but not exactly parallel). Because these remaining outlines did not cross, my cam program did not remove them.
Because of the remaining double outlines, the cam program basically doubles up on the cut path.
If I trace manually with the bezier tool and shape tool, I don't have this problem. It's only when tracing with Powertrace.

I scanned and live traced a drawing of mine. I want to add color to make it a proper vector illustration for example:
But when I try and change the colour of the outline of say the skin, this changed the outline of everythign else (hair, clothes) because the lines are all joined. How do I only change the colour of the outlines surrounding certain areas?

Other than the 'show bounding box' check box.... is there any other reason I can't get my bounding box to show? It seems to be totally random. I can't get the bounding box to show.

I normally press "j" to disable the bounding box. but when you press F3 for wireframe and then F3 again to return to realistic view, the bounding box turns back on. is this a "fix" or a bug?

I don't know if this is a bug or a new 'feature' that I downloaded during the last update... but I get bounding boxes on layer items. How do I turn these off, or is this a bug?

My PS CS4 crashed the other night and erased all of my settings. Now, when I have a layer selected, I can't see the bounding box. I have checked auto-select, layer and checked show transform controls. I have view>extras checked as well. All I see are little tiny squares in each corner of the layer and in the middle of each side. I used to have a dashed line around the object and it is gone. Here is a shot of how it looks with the word strip selected: [URL]

I'm using the following code to take a snapshot of the model:
private Bitmap GetScreenshot() { int cvPort = Convert.ToInt32(Application.GetSystemVariable(RenderingManager.CVPORT_SYS_VAR)); using (View view = new View()) { this.graphicsManager.SetViewFromViewport(view, cvPort); view.VisualStyle = new VisualStyle(VisualStyleType.Hidden); using (Device dev = this.graphicsManager.CreateAutoCADOffScreenDevice()) { dev.OnSize(graphicsManager.DisplaySize); dev.DeviceRenderType = RendererType.Default; dev.BackgroundColor = System.Drawing.Color.White; dev.Add(view); dev.Update(); using (Model model = graphicsManager.CreateAutoCADModel()) { using (Transaction transaction = this.database.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()) { BlockTable blockTable = (BlockTable)transaction.GetObject(this.database.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForRead); BlockTableRecord blockTableRecord = (BlockTableRecord)transaction.GetObject(blockTable[BlockTableRecord.ModelSpace], OpenMode.ForRead); view.Add(blockTableRecord, model); transaction.Commit(); } Bitmap bitmap = view.GetSnapshot(view.Viewport); view.EraseAll(); dev.Erase(view); return bitmap; } } } }
I'm currently passing the entire viewport to the GetSnapshot method, but I'd like to restrict it to the minumun rectangle containing the drawing. The following image explains what I mean (in red the viewport, in black what i need):
how can I compute the black rectangle?
