How can I take simple measurements from the pipes on the image? Diameter, radius of bends etc? I realize I can export the pipe into Inventor and do it that way but I would rather learn how this is done in CAD.

I'm trying to convert an existing VBA routine to a vb.Net dll. One of the functions is inserting and scaling an existing tif image file into a blank AutoCAD 2010 drawing. I've searched and found just a few examples, but they all seem horrifically complicated . Am I missing the simple way of doing this, or is this an example of the seemingly massive learning curve of .Net that is beginning to remind me of my collegiate C class (shudder)?

Illustrator keeps freezing when applying an effect such as texture-grain to a simple gradient, or even rasterizing a simple black circle. My system is about a 6month old macbook pro with 16gb ram, i7 and AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1024 MB. What could be causing this? It wasn't like this when i first started using the laptop but has started to do it everytime i try and do any of those simple tasks recently.

I have been making a simple image of a 300 by 100 rounded rectangle and then adding various layer styles. Basically I am makeing mobile headers which will be used for mobile websites.
Today I was reviewing a few that I have made and noticed that when I open them in their .png format and then create a selection around one (Ctrl + Click) that the lower right coner is not being selected as rounded but as a point and so when I copy and then paste it into a new document it has three rounded corners and one somewhat visible pointed corner. ?? ??
The file has a BG layer and two shape layers (or sometimes just one shape layer). I select the layers and then merge them together and turn off the BG layer beofore I save them for the web. I have also tried just saving the file as a .png w/out merging the layers but no matter how I go about saving the file(s) most of the time one corner is saved w/that annoying and imperfect sharp corner.
I totally suck with PS, so I was wondering if I could get some help vectorizing this image. I'd like to change the color and make it look more "Web2.0-ish", nah mean?

Let's suppose I find a photo or an image (illustration or cartoon or something) that I would like to use in my project. I want to trace it and therefore, have an outline of the image I want.
How do I do this using an action or plugin or something.
I know I can do this manually using the pen tool. But are there other ways?
1. Are there other ways to doing this manually?
2. Are there any actions or plugins to do this?
If I use an action, the outlines might be too detailed for what I need.
3. How do I get a simpler outline? Would it be possible for me to choose that?

Say I paste a raster image into illustrator. It's a square (or a rectangle).
Is there an easy way to turn this image into a shape object so I can apply effects like rounded corner to it?
I'm not really looking to trace the image, just turn it into a square shape.
I've searched for a way to make a simple, one color image into a vector image. The best thing I've found is a .atn thing fromsPECtre. I've unzipped it but really don't understand photoshop well enough to use it.
I'd like to learn how to actually do it my self. I can easily make the image into a selection, all I need is to make that selection into a solid vector.
How do I do this?
I just need a square image with a letter on it. Here is what I have done:
1) File - new. 256x256. OK.
2) Click the 'A' button in the toolbox
3) Click 'Use Editor (since nothing seems to work)
4) Drag a rectangle onto my image.
5) Click on the editor
6) Type the letter 'x'
Guess what happens? Absolutely NOTHING! If I type other random letters, the editor disappears. What am I doing wrong? (and why is this so difficult?).
I need to convert this shopping cart bitmap to a vector image: [URL]
It's a very simple image, but when I try using the Image Trace tool in CS6 it fails miserably.
Is there a simple way to convert this to a vector image in Illustrator?
I'm writing a simple 5 step Action. I keep getting this: The command "Flatten Image" is not currently available. Then it asks me if I want to Continue.doesn't do it each and every time.I'll load two images and it will do that on the first but not the second.
View 4 Replies View RelatedThis is probably a moronic question to most of you, but in my defense I just started using coreldraw X5 yesterday, and I have no graphic designing experiance.
My boss is having me design the backdrop for a competition he is hosting. He is an Event Producer. And Im trying to take the company logo and place it on an image in corelDRAW X5. I cant figure out how to erase the white from behind the logo. Or convert the image that will do it automatically.. I dont need a power point presentation, I have full access to all the tutorials and the stuff the program came with, and I need the education on this product anyways.
I would like to be able to create an extremely simple image gallery using Ligtroom 5.3.
All attempts to use "Web" module prove to be quite oversophisticated. Here is my point:
1) I have let's say 15 images selected and ready to export (OK)
2) I would like to export these files to ftp to a prespecified directory (OK)
3) I would like lightroom to get me a ready to use html file which will contain all full-size images with descriptions below the pictures (no links to intermediary pictures)
This would simpify 1000 times my workflow with updating pictures to FTP and then adding some text to publish it on my blog.
I even bought LR/Blog plugin, but it doesn't do the trick - even though I can freely generete html code, it keeps applying some weird prefixes to filenames and is not that universal in general
New to Corel Draw. We just purchased a laser cutter to cut our stencils (we airbrush), but having a VERY hard time figuring out how to prep the vector images. We follow instructions, but it seems to always have a problem. We usually separate layers on photoshop and then trace on Corel so it can be a vector, but it doesn't seem to be working. What is the easiest, most simple way to turn an image into a vector so we can send it to the laser software??? Only doing black and white, one layer at a time.
Just need simple instructions, and most seem to be WAY too complicated or always have some complication. I have watched videos and read instructions, got close, but no cigar. Sometimes I think I have a vector, but when I send it to the laser software it doesn't detect it. I need simple instructions, Simple simple!
Can I make an image a vector without tracing it? Does it have to be a bitmap to be a vector? I can't turn images into curves because the option is gray (not available). If I select hairline it puts a hairline border around the image and I don't want it cut!
I'm trying to create a certain effect that is probably best illustrated with pictures
created by varying the thickness of lines, whether horizonal or part of letters or even symbols.
I don't know if this is even possible using photoshop to be perfectly honest. If that's the case, does anyone know the software that would be required?
Using LR 5.
I'm trying to create a simple 6 image per page book using Auto Layout. No matter what I try, I cannot get it to lay the images out in sequential order.
The images are numbered 001_XXXX.jpg and I see them in the correct order in the LR Library.
How do we flip the dimension numbers from one side of the line to another?
My dimension always appears on the left hand side for a vertical line and on the top for horizontal line... Can I make them appear on the bottom or right side?

there is no value, why?
Is there such a software from autodesk that would open iam files and let the user to take measurement only?

I've recently re-install my AutoCAD on my Win7 PC and now whenever I try to draw a Line, there's this automatic measurement of the length of the line I'm stretching. It is really causing a lag on my PC for some reason and I seem to can't find a way to turn it off.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI needed to know the Side Opposite so that I could subtract that amount from a known line length.
I knew the angle (24) and the side adjacent (.9375) therefore SIN 24 = X/.9375 .0467= X/.9375 = .3813
When I measure the side opposite I get .4172

I use to work drawing, calculating and budgeting corrugated steel for foundations and I always have the same problem. Once i have desinged and drawn all the lines (or polilines) i have to count every single corrugated steel to know how many of them I have in order to know metters of steel that we have to order to the manufacturer.
any command that autocad has to measure this kind of lines or polilines?how many metters of corrugated steel I have.
