Illustrator :: Fill Section But Using Fill / Stroke Only Changes Line Color

Feb 17, 2013

I traced an image earlier, expanded it then wanted to change the line colour. For some reason I couldn't get this to work even though I've done it in the past. So, I used the magic wand to select the line then dragged it into my new document and changed the line colour.
 
Now, I want to change the fill on certain sections, however when I change the stroke it changes the colour of the line and when I change the fill it changes the color of the line.

Illustrator :: How To Stroke Behind Other Stroke But In Front Of Fill

Jan 4, 2013

I have a shape with a black stroke and green fill.  I have a white line segment over it.  How do I get it so that the end of the line segment doesn't show over the black stroke of the object?  If I try to put the line segment behind the object, then the object fill hides it completely.
 
I'm new to illustrator and I've tried to search for an answer but I don't know the best way to accomplish what I want to do.  Seems like some combination of transparency or knockout groups and I've read a bit about this and can't figure out what I need to do.

Illustrator :: Auto Switch Between Stroke Fill And Fill

Nov 20, 2012

I spend 12 hours a day in illustrator and some functionality seems to simplistic and ultimately annoying.I'm using Windows 7 64bit. Adobe Illustrator CS6
 
1. Please auto switch between Stroke fill and fill when I select text. 99% of my time is spent only using fill on text. I would rather manually switch to Stroke when I want to add a fill to it rather having to switch to fill each time.
 
2. Same for Stroke, from point 1.
 
3. Add an auto layer for Guides. When I am using the Scissors tool, the majority of the time I don't want to cut my guides up, I would rather instead cut up the shape below it. Again manually changing the layer to select the guide would be preferable.
 
4. I personally never use the Eraser tool and I switch to the Scissors Tool. Without fail every time I launch Illustrator I have to switch from the Eraser Tool too the Scissors tool. Please add cookies or something so I don't have to always switch to the Scissors Tool.
 
5. Move "Align to Pixel" toggle somewhere outside a file menu.

Illustrator Scripting :: Apply Current Fill Color To Stroke Then Adjust That Stroke Color's Build?

Apr 9, 2013

I'm trying to figure out a way to automate a simple, yet repetative process I do countless times a day. Ideally, I'd like to tie it to a keystroke to speed up my workflow.
 
I work on line art and colorways for footwear, so the way I'm coloring these shapes and strokes break apart the different materials and pieces of the shoe.
 
While coloring line art, I work with Pantone spot colors as fills for closed path objects. I then have to manually apply that same color to the stroke, set the stroke to 0.5px weight, convert that spot stroke color to CMYK, and add 15% to the K value.
 
I found some code in an older post for applying the actively selected object's fill color to the stroke, but I'm having but I'm having trouble with the next step of figuring out how to take that spot stroke color and convert it to a CMYK build that I can then add 15% black to. Is this something that's even possible? I've spent about an hour playing with the script and have only had luck matching the fill color or turning the stroke white.

AutoCAD Express Tools :: How To Get Shape To Block Command To Work (under Express Tools)

How to get the 'Shape to Block' command to work (under express tools).

It says select object, but no matter what object I select eg. circle, pline or line, it says invalid selection. I am running AutoCAD 2012. Are 'shape' objects somehow different from any other objects?

Photoshop :: How To Remove Instant Stroke On All Shape Tools

Feb 4, 2013

I just installed CS6, and I'm having serious problems w/ a few things. Mainly this issue:
 
As you can see, every time I create an object, a stroke is added to it. And you can also see on the layers path, a small little box is also added. Here's the weird part, when I try and change the images color, I get a popup saying that this object needs to be "rasterized" before changing the color. Then when the color changes, it changes the shape object to what i need it to be.

Photoshop :: Does CS6 Add A Stroke And Fill To Shape

May 17, 2012

Using CS6 for web mock ups - so lots of vector shapes.And now there are 2 ways to do a stroke, 2 ways to do a fill - in the bar at the top or the old effects dialogue box, but gradients and shadows etc are still just in the old dialogue box, not in the top bar.
 
Is it me or is this incredibly bad app development? Bolt on some new functionality and don't bother about the old stuff so it just becomes one big mess.Starting to use Sketch now, and really hoping they keep working on it so it makes PS redundant -

GIMP :: Fill Selected Background Area With Flame Fill Pattern

Dec 17, 2012

see xcf attachment...

I used a heart fill pattern of the right 75% of the picture and the left 75% of the picture is selected overlapping the first fill in the background... I want to fill the selected background area with a flame fill pattern where it overlaps the selected portion of the heart pattern as well as the transparent area... 'overlay' looks better but Gimp is FAILING to fill the transparent areas, it ONLY fills the overlapped heart pattern portion of the selected content!!! I even tried filling the transparent area with 'white' then filling the selected area, but it STILL ONLY wants to overlay fill the heart pattern, it STILL leaves the rest alone!!! it doesn't matter if the background is white or transparent, it leaves that alone and ONLY fills the heart pattern area of selected portion of the image!!!

Photoshop :: Pen Tool Stroke / Fill Function Not Working

Sep 8, 2012

I draw a line with the pen tool, right click and then 'stroke' the pen line with a brush (for example). I imagine I've done this successfully thousands of times but for some reason it just isn't working today (or yesterday actually!). When I right click then go down to 'stroke' nothing happens at all.
 
However it does work if I go into the 'paths' palette, right click on 'work path' and stroke the pen line with the brush.

Illustrator :: 3D Effect With Overlapping Line With Fill And Stroke?

Feb 16, 2014

How can I draw a continuous stroked line with a fill, so that it overlaps and covers the previously drawn part of the line? I'm trying to draw some text so that it has an effect like in fig. 2 of the attached picture, not fig. 1. Is it possible to make somehow? For a simple image like this I could of course manually remove the few lines, but for a more complex text it's not possible, and I can't seem to find a solution myself.

Illustrator Scripting :: Finding PathItems That Have No Fill And No Stroke

Jan 10, 2014

So here's what I wrote to try and find and delete all pathItems within a document that lack a fill and lack a stroke.
 
var doc = app.activeDocument;
for (i=0; doc.pathItems.length>i;i++) {
alert(doc.pathItems[i].name + " " + doc.pathItems[i].fillColor.name)

[Code]....
 
But alas, neither seems to do the trick, the first one makes sense why it wouldnt work since it says that the color is "undefined" but it isnt a string called "undefined." So I'm not sure how to go about this at all now.

Illustrator :: Permanently Showing Paths Without Stroke Or Fill

Returning to Illustrator after not using for a long time.
 
How can I permanently show paths created for example by the pen tool when I create them with no fill or stroke attributes - for example a set of contours?
 
If I set the view to outline (control + Y it does this but puts them on a white background meaning I can't see underlying layers.

InDesign :: Eyedropper Tool Exchanges Fill With Stroke

Feb 26, 2014

I try to add a predefined character style via eyedropper tool to another text. First i simply select the tool and click on the previously marked text.

Now the tool instead of picking the predefined characterstyle exchanges the current textfill with an appropriate textstroke.
 
I've already reset my preferences and short of a complete new installation of InDesign i don't know what to do.

Illustrator :: Appearance Palette - How To Rearrange The Stroke (Beneath The Fill)

Dec 12, 2012

I am new to the Appearance palette
 
See screen shot attached. (the text "Helvetica")
 
I have created some live text (ie: it remains editable)
 
I have given it a fill of black and a heavy (7pt) stroke of blue.
 
I cannot appear to rearrange the stroke so that it falls beneath the fill
 
I assumed it would simply be question of dragging it below, as one would with the Layers
 
However, when I converted the text to outlines (in this case the text "UNIVERS") it works.
 
And also why are the eyes in the first coloumn grayed out when the text is live. But not so when text is outlined?

Illustrator :: Auto Set Stroke Weight / Colors And Fill Color?

Mar 5, 2014

I'd like to make it easier for our 100,000 designers to use AI to make custom products using a laser cutter.
 
Current Practice
Designers open our AI laser cutting design templates, add their designs using the AI settings our online pricing system can read, then upload their designs to our website for instant pricing, making and shipping.
 
The Problem
Designers have to manually setup AI with settings that can be read by our online pricing system. If they get these settings wrong, our system can not read their designs. So they are rejected and can not be priced or made. This happens more often that you'd imagine.
 
The Solution
Designers do not like design rejections. So I'd like to eradicate them by providing our designers with a version of AI that provides the following settings only:
 
* Set document to RGB
* Stroke weight = 0.01mm
* Stroke colors = RGB 0, 0, 255 and 255, 0, 0
* Fill color = RGB 0, 0, 0
 
This will mean designers have a very limited number of AI choices, with nothing to distract them or to get wrong. Which will result in less (or zero?) design rejections. And products made faster than before. Rejoice!
 
Question
How do we program our AI laser cutting design templates so that when they are opened in AI, they auto set AI settings as defined above?

Illustrator :: Alternative Way Of Adding Same Stroke To Actual Fill Of A Shape

Nov 2, 2013

I want to use a 3rd party brush to 'color in' parts of a drawing or paint the background so it has a nice effect.However, when I use the brush tool to add color it reacts in an odd way as seen in the snapshot. I've looked at the brush options but am unsure of what will make a difference. Is there a way of devoting more ram to the program when I'm using it?
 
Is there an alternative way of adding the same stroke to the actual fill of a shape? At the moment all of my fill colors are block colors rather than having a kind of chalk / pastel texture that I can get with the brush. Basically, I would like to fill shapes with textured color rather than flat color.
