AutoCad 2D :: Update Existing Mleaders To Follow New UCS?

Oct 24, 2011

I have an old project where the mleaders were all created in WCS and aligned to it for a preliminary plan set. Now that the plan has progressed to CDs (over a year later) they have rotated the views to a new alignment for the final plans. I'd love to not have to re-do all my mleaders in the new UCS to match the new alignment. Any way to update existing mleaders to follow a new UCS?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Subassembly Composer - Update Existing Custom SAs

Nov 27, 2012

What's the easiest way to update an existing custom SA once it's in the drawing.

For example i have some coding that I'd like to change and this particular SA is in use 10 times in my file in different ways. I used the Subassembly Composer to create the original custom SA.

It's not as easy as saving the file over top of the existing .pkt file, if it was I wouldn't be here. It seems to be behaving like a block would. I need to redefine the Subassembly in order for it to update in the drawing. How is best to do this and is there any tricks to the process. When do i need to open and close Civil in order to apply the new changes.

Do I need to update the SA in my tool palette as well?

GIMP :: Can't Add Existing Layers To A Group

Jul 25, 2012

I've created an image with several layers and want to group some of them buthave problems.

As stated in the docs, "You can add existing layers to a layer group byclick-and-dragging them."

And also, "The hand representing the mouse pointer must turn smaller beforereleasing the mouse button.

A thin horizontal line marks where the layer will be laid down"

However, I don't see neither a hand, nor a thin horizontal line.

I see a small scaled preview of a layer, and the mouse cursor turns to acorner, not a hand.

I use GIMP 2.8 on windows 7 64 bit.

I've created an image from several PNGs. I've opened one of those PNGs, saved it as .xcf, and then opened others fromFile->Open as layers...

Then I've created new Layer group by right-clicking on the Layers tab andselecting the respective menu item. Then I've run in the problems, describedabove.

Seems I'm doing something wrong.What?

GIMP :: How To Modify Existing Rectangle

Feb 7, 2013

how to select and modify an EXISTING rectangle (not create a new one)? I drew a rectangle with rounded corners, and now I would like to modify the radius of the corners.

I've tried using the Rectangle Select tool to reselect the existing rectangle, but Gimp only lets me create a new rectangle.

GIMP :: Add Gradient To Existing Image?

Jan 10, 2013

I am unable to add a gradient to an image. I do the following:

-Select a gradient (I just selected a default gradient to start off with)

-Then I select a region of the image that I want to apply the gradient to (I use the rectangle select tool)

-Then I switch back to the gradient tool

-Then I hover the cursor over the selected region of the image. This is where I expect to be able to click the mouse down and drag to create the gradient. However, when the cursor hovers over the image the cursor turns into a black circle with a line through it (which obviously is telling me "no, you can't do this"). Obviously, when I click and drag, nothing happens.

GIMP :: Rearranging Parts Of Existing Design?

Mar 2, 2013

I want to deconstruct a design and rearrange the parts.I have a horizontal banner-style logo with an image on the left and text stretching out to the right. I want to make a square badge by moving the text to be above the image.

Using logic I copied and pasted the EPS original to make three layers. Then I tried cropping to create the various elements (one is the image, two others are words). It's not working. Each time I crop one layer, all the layers crop.

Obviously I'm missing a step or two in isolating the layers or something. I have been using the EPS version of the logo file but I also have it in PNG and JPG.

GIMP :: How To Make Another Ellipse Within Existing One And Of Different Color

Dec 20, 2013

I am trying to color a sketch I made and have thus far (successfully??) created a white background, an ink layer and a color layer. They are in multiply mode. The file I am working with is not GIF or JPEG, it's XCF.

Color is set to 100%, mode is normal. And yes, the image mode IS set to RGB.

I had selected a small color palette and filled an ellipse shape with it. Fine so far. I wanted to make another ellipse within this one and make it a different color. This did not work. I don't know how many options I tried, incl. exiting the program and starting again, to no avail. Somehow (how this worked) ONE additional color worked (very similar to the first). But no black, for example, no green, nothing.

Yesterday I finished a picture (my first attempt using GIMP or any software, at least for art) and I was super happy with the result. It's not working.

GIMP :: Closes Existing Windows Opening New File?

Sep 27, 2013

I've been trying to replicate the problem, but it appears to be intermittent. It happens on multiple computers, we're using 2.8.4 on Windows 8 at the moment.

Scenario: GIMP is open with multiple files.

Browse a folder in explorer and select OPEN WITH GIMP or just OPEN. And a GIMP startup splash screen appears and reloads the GIMP application automatically closing and losing any work that was in progress on the prior GIMP screens.

GIMP :: Create Series Of PNG Files From Existing Image

Aug 7, 2013

I'm using the script export-selection.scm to create a series of PNG files from an existing image. It works fine but I find the fact that it saves the file to a name that it constructs (based on the .xcf file loaded, and whether it is saving a one layer or visible layers, etc) really slows me down, as I have to bounce between gimp and explorer to rename each output file after every save.

I looked at the source to see if I could tweak it so that the filename it created was unique, but I must have missed a crucial episode somewhere, because I couldn't get past first base.

Here's the candidate line from the script:

(outputName (string-append imageNameNoExt "-sel"))

..so you get a filename of MyGimpImageName-sel.png. What I want to do is create filenames called MyGimpImageName-sel-001.png, MyGimpImageName-sel-002.png etc.

An alternative would be to add an edit box to the dialog to allow you to specify the filename.

On a related subject, is it possible to set up a key binding to execute a script? If this could be done, I could roll a version of the script that skipped the dialog altogether and just used the last settings. In combination with the unique filename mod, this would speed up the job considerably.

GIMP :: Background Layer For Each Frame Of Existing Animation

Mar 24, 2012

I have a five-frame animation to which I would like to add a background and I don't have enough GIMP knowledge to do it myself, so I've been trying to use the merge-anim script (URL...). When I use it under Debian Linux, with GIMP 2.6.10 (I have also tried it with GIMP 2.6.11 under Windows 7) however, it gives two error messages.

The first is "Plug-In 'Merge layer with others' left image undo in inconsistent state, closing open undo groups."

The second is "Error while executing script-fu-merge-anim: Error: not enough arguments."

The merge never does occur.The script doesn't have any real instructions and I haven't seen any anywhere else (just a number of example results that don't show the steps take), so my first attempt was with all the default values that came up and then other attempts were with changes to various options. None of them made any difference. The error messages were always the same and the script-fu console did not show any messages.

Do any of you know if this script, as old as it is, even still works with GIMP 2.6.10, or is it just a completely dead project that would only work with older versions of GIMP?

If it SHOULD work with GIMP 2.6.10 for Linux or GIMP 2.6.11 for Windows, what I should do to fix these errors and get it to work properly.

If there's no hope for the script, how DO I make a "background" layer the background for each frame of an existing animation. Also, if it makes any difference, the background I'm trying to use is a gradient created by GIMP.

GIMP :: How To Select Layer Groups And Copy Them Over To Another Pre-existing Image

Oct 25, 2012

I'd like to be to select a layer groups and copy them over to another pre-existing image.

I've been struggling with this for an hour or so, and I haven't found a way to do this.

Is is possible to do this in GIMP?

The closet I've found is a kind of paste where you do this: drag the tab of the origin image over to the tab of the target image. The result is a new layer in the target image called "dropped buffer". However, the entire origin image is imported flattened.

I've been trying other drag and drop operations, but without success. Usually when I drop the selection to the target image, the icon under the mouse dissapears, and nothing actually happens.

I thought this might be a window manager problem. But I get the same results across kde, gnome and xfce.

Illustrator :: Adding Text To Existing Appearance Panel?

Sep 30, 2012

Is it possible to add text to the fills, strokes, drop shadows & textures that I already created using the appearance panel? Seems like you can build upon text using the appearance panel, but not visa-versa. Is that correct? I thought I was being proactive using the appearance panel the other day to build a burst that I was later going to add text to. But now that I have the text I cant find a way to add it into the appearance panel. I got around it by making what I had built into a graphic style and then applying that to the text. But I had to redefine the shapes that I had originally built to make it work.
 
Also, is there any way to break these elements apart when you use transform in the appearance panel? For instance, sometimes I will create a pattern using the transform tool and then I am asked to change the color of the shape in the middle.

Photoshop :: 13.0.4 Update Text Box Disappear?

Feb 21, 2013

Yesterday I updated to version 13.0.4 and since I have noticed that the boundaries of textboxes disappear when they are dragged.  Previously when i dragged a textbox I could see the boundaries as it was moved and could use that to align the text elements in a grid.  Now however, it is only the text that is visible when it is dragged.
 
Other things I have noticed is that the text cursor itself has changed and is now missing the arrow which previously made it easy to accurately draw text boxes.  Aside from that, although not specific to this update but since I have begun using CS6 is the fact that when I try to horizontally resize a text box it takes around a second after hovering over the anchor for the mouse to change to the resize cursor, although when resizing vertically or using one of the corner anchors this does not occur.
 
These featurest are essential to most of my daily work and are slowing me down considerably. If no solution is available is it possible to revert back to the previous version before I installed 13.0.4?
 
I have included system info below.
 
Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.0.4 (13.0.4 20130104.r.28 2013/01/04:21:00:00) x64

GIMP :: Text Tool Changes Text Properties When Paste Over Old Text Content?

i switched gimp 2.6 to 2.8 and new text tool behaves strangely, as i remember in gimp 2.6 when i try to change text content with selecting old text and pasting new text i could use same text size and same font with my old text without doing anything but now in the gim 2.8 whenever i try to change content of a text layer i need to choose again font and text size from toolbox options, but why do i have to do this, i have a text placed on my image with a certain font and certain font size and i just want to alter my text conten not the size of text or font , it changes automatically to back text size and font whatever i used last time in another work.

summary: i want to change my text content without setting my font and font size properties, i want to use my text layers old properties

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Change Existing Text Object Style Using Script

Oct 25, 2012

I've wrriten a script that will create custom annotative scales and a new text style.  (It works fine up to that point) The next steps I'm trying to add to the script is to select a text object, set it to the new style, make it annotative and add all of the annotative scales to that text object.  CHPROP allows me to make the text object annotaive but I haven't found a command that will let me change the style or add annotative scales to the text object.  Any commands I can use in a script to do this ? (or know if this is even possible)?  I have 2000+ drawings I need to run this one, I hope I can find the commands to script this with.
