AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cursor Turns To Circular Shape When Open Particular Drawing

Jan 9, 2014

I'm running Autocad 2013 Civil 3d, when I open a particular drawing the cursor turns to a circular shape as if it is downloading something, but it is actually not loading anything. This circular cursor does not let you do anything with the drawing, you just have to keep hitting esc until it gives you a fatal error message that says "FATAL ERROR: Cannot write to undo file (probably disk full)" and it kicks you out of autcad. How to get rid of this ciruclar cursor?

GIMP :: Drawing A Line Within A Shape

Oct 9, 2013

How do you draw a line within a shape? I know how to make a circle or rectangle (through the circle or rectangle select tool/stroke path) and how to draw straight lines. I want to take a box like this:

-----
1 1
1 1
1 1
-----

and add a line through the center like this:

-----
1 1
1-----1
1 1
-----

And of course I'd prefer the line be neat, from one end of the shape to the other, not just a sloppily drawn line.

Of course I can do this very slowly by drawing the line, zooming way in, and manually moving the line into place. But surely there's a better way!

Photoshop :: Turning A Line Drawing Into A Shape Object?

Mar 8, 2006

I am using CS2.

I have a line drawing of a simple object that I would like to convert into a shape.

I have figured out how to cut the shape itself out of the original image using the magic wand select tool thing and altering the tolerance. So I have the cut-out shape on a transparent layer in a .psd file. All well and good.

I looked up "shapes" in the help center, and it says this:

"To convert type to shapes

When you convert type to shapes, the type layer is replaced by a layer with a vector mask. You can edit the vector mask and apply styles to the layer; however, you cannot edit characters in the layer as text."

It continues:

"Select a type layer, and choose Layer > Type > Convert To Shape".

Everything was going swimmingly untill that point - I go to the Layer menu - but "Type" is greyed out and therefore inaccessible.

I then did a search for "type layer" to find out what a type layer was - it says:

"About type layers:

After you create a type layer ...

tell me what a type layer is (I figure it has something to do with font, but I don't see how this relates to my line drawing), how to create one, or how to get my drawing into a type layer so I can convert it to a shape!

Illustrator :: Space Bar Doesn't Move Shape While Drawing

Jan 17, 2014

As of today's update to Illustrator 17.1 it seems that you cannot use the spacebard while in the middle of drawing a shape (a rectangle, circle, etc.) any more. I don't see a preference to turn this back on. This was an incredibly useful feature.

Photoshop :: Scripting - Get Stroke Shape And Pressure Of (Brush Tool) Drawing Action?

Sep 29, 2013

What I would like to do is to get the stroke shape, pressure and maybe velocity after a `Brush Tool' drawing action is triggered by the user, i.e. after a simple drawing operation.

I have been using the ScriptListener plugin, but it does not record this type of operation: changing the brush parameters (e.g. size and opacity), yes, but the actual drawing action, no.

Photoshop :: Unable To Scale Shape Layers Layer Mask Independent From Shape

Sep 25, 2012

In Photoshop CS6, when you have a shape layer with a layer mask, and the two are not linked together, and the layer mask is selected, you should be able to scale the layer mask independently of the shape. What actually happens is the shape gets scaled and the layer mask stays untouched. In fact, even if you option-click on the layer mask to show the mask by itself, and then try to scale it, you still end up scaling the shape instead of the mask. Even if you go as far as to make a pixel selection of the layer mask and attempt to scale the pixels, the shape still gets scaled and the layer mask still stays put! Unbelievable!
 
This works correctly in CS4, but not in CS6 (don't know about CS5).

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 12 :: Align Shape And Text Object At Center Of Shape?

Jan 14, 2012

I'm creating a logo that consists of the word DIFFERENT in text and a shape, a dot (an ellipse) that I want to appear above the I and be vertically aligned with I.

How can I do this?The problem is that I can't see how to identify the point in the text - the centre of the I - to act as the target. I can't seem to get any of the Snap to Object tools to work.

I feel that I should be able to mark a specific point anywhere on a shape or an object and use those points to align.

I suspect that I could achieve the effect that I want by splitting the text characters up into individual objects, than I can align them more obviously but then I set up some other issues with kerning.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 :: Text Within Shape While Precisely Keeping The Shape's Outline

Nov 11, 2011

I'm working with CorelDraw X3 and want to fill text into a round shape, while keeping it's exact outline. Hence, cutting of parts of words and letters is fine with me as long as the shape is well-defined. Unfortunately when filling paragraph text into a shape, the automatic line breaks lead to a quite irregular shape regardless of font size.

As workaround I arranged a mask in front of background and text but this requires a square paragraph text which is larger than the background. Since paragraph text obviously cannot be cropped with other objects I made the mask size bigger and filled it white. When exporting my document as image everything looks neat, but there must be a better way to do this in CorelDraw itself?

I tried converting the paragraph text into artistic text and cropping this, which works fine for a few words and a small object. But I'm talking around 1000 words here, and trying to crop this artistic text leads to very random cropping results. I guess such a large number of objects and knots is too much for CorelDraw to handle!?

Xara :: Converting Ripple Shape To Bitmap Copy And Then Slicing Shape

Jan 4, 2012

I just read the thread the thread "...plus ask about erasers" but it doesn't answer my question about combining shapes to remove unwanted portions - or at least I didn't quite understand it. Here's my issue. I've created a nice "background" image with ripples and live effects, but it has gaps, and isn'tthe right shape. I need to erase parts of it and clip it to the right shape, but every time I try to do this using the slice tool, it puts the gaps back into the image! Attached is my image and the shape I want to clip it to.

I just tried converting the ripple shape to a bitmap copy and then slicing the shape - that doesn't get me the rippled effect I want - just the shape I already have. Then, I tried just creating the water ripples in my shape - but again that leaves gaps and when I try to "slice" them away it does all kinds of weird things to the shape..

Illustrator :: Front Shape Appears Thinner After Subtracting From Back Shape

Jan 13, 2014

I'm using CS3 on a Mac.
 
I outlined my text and subtracted it (and the tree image) from the black background. When I did this both appear thinner - particularly the tree.
 
If I then take the original version and the new subtracted version, and view them both overlayed one on top of the other in wire frame (outline) mode, there is no difference in the actual lines.
 
It seems to be a problem with the way illustrator previews the images. This wouldn't concern me, but when I export the file as a jpeg, the lines also appear thinner in the export. 
 
I can create a manual solution by offsetting the path before subtracting, but this isn't ideal.

Photoshop :: Live Shape Properties / Create A New Shape To Replace Old

Sep 18, 2013

Since the release of Photoshop CC the "Live Shape Properties" has basically chosen when it does and does not want to show up.... sometimes I even create a new shape to replace the old one and it STILL does not show the live shape properties... how hard is it to make sure the options are available at all times? I opt for a discount since this is a half working application and the features you highlighted barely function...

Illustrator :: Shape Moves On Own / Won't Cover Other Shape

Apr 20, 2013

I'm trying to cover a section of letters that have been outlines with a red box over a serif for a homework project. HOWEVER. Everytime I do this, it looks like I have it all lined up and when I make another point, the points move on its own to be off  and not cover the object Say I complete the box and try to cover the object by just dragging and dropping, it will avoid that area and move it off to one side or the other but never align with the actual object I'm trying to cover for a smooth and even coverage.  Trying to get the red box to cover the black serif and it won't do it.
