How to do a text warp like the top of a class ring similar to this image.
I have tried to work with the mesh envelope tool, but the letters get all distorted and don't run evenly around the corner. I can't seem to get a nice consistent look like this.
So I have text that I would like warp in an Arc. I will be cutting this on a plotter. WHen I use the envelope distort the envelope blocks my text in outline mode. If I go to Effect>Arc the warp only occurs in preview but the outlines do not change as the plotter would see it.
I'm sure there is some way to warp text into an arc and have the outlines remain visible and warped for the plottter to cut, no?
I have read illustrator js doc many time but could not find any function that is responsible for ARC the text like.

I've got a picture of a ring lying on a surface (3D pic).
I'd like to make some text so it looks like it's on the ring, encircling it. How do I do that? I've tried all the free transform functions, no results.
If we create a 3d ring and choose diffuse > new texture, the text is repeated several times.
I have attached a sample image. I want to see the word "HELLO" only once. How do I do this ?
I brought in an .SDF file containing survey points into a new drawing.
When I use "style" to format the labels I get the symbol displayed but the text doesn't show up till I hover over the point with my cursor, and they dont stay visible when I move the cursor away from the point.
When I use "Feature Label" I can get a symbol but no text, even if I hover the cursor over the point.
I have set mapsrtyle to "Enhanced"
I would prefer to use "Feature Label" because of the additional features it offers.
is there a way to extend existing classes? I am trying to add methods to the symbolItems class, but it doesn't seem to work. says it is not defined:
symbolItems.prototype.isIn = function(parentItem, runThis) {
//do something
}
I am trying to add a shadow effect for dimension to just a section of the edge on the inside of a circular ring. Is there a way to make a drop shadow do this on the inside? Or do I need to look at some other technique?

I would like to keep the actual text as normal and then warp it's shadow.
When I use the 3D tools in PS CS6, the render is 'warping' the clean lines in an odd manner.Notice the curves on the C and O are getting points and straight lines in the top left corners? And the inside of the O is showing some strange distortion.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIf you have a text layer on the Video timeline in PS CS6, there is an option to use key frames with Text Warp. Unfortunately, unlike other key framed animations, the change from one warp state to another is not gradual. It simply jumps from one warp selection at one key frame to another warp selection at the next key frame. Converting it to a Smart Object removes the Warp Text animation option but retains the animation.
Is this behavior by design?
I am trying to make warp text like this picture. But when I do "warp text" it never comes out like that. I try the different "lower and upper arc), my text becomes a little rounded at the bottom (its suppose to be straight). Is there a special to create this type of warp text?

View 9 Replies View RelatedIs there a way when finding and replacing a text string to style the block of copy. My problem is that I have some color codes given by the customer that now need to be converted to our internal color matches on our production drawings.
The original string of text looks like this:
Holder: P1 (Metallic Silver)
What I’m getting when I go to replace this string is:
Holder: Natural Satin
What I want is:
Holder: Natural Satin
I do not want the replaced text to be italicized. I'm thinking since the original string ends with an italic style that the replacement string is also italicized. There are about 50 pages of drawings with about 10 colors on the job and some pages have them entered in more than one place. So that's a minimum of 500 entries and defititely more considereing the multiple places these are called out. I'd really rather not have to copy and paste all of these by hand. I'm use to FreeHand, which would respect the font styling of pasted text in the find and replace diaglog.
I opened an old file, probably from photoshop 7 or something, where I was using 'warp text' - just a simple 6 degree arc. Now, in CS4, I attempt to change the text written, or make any changes at all to the type, and the font becomes distorted. It doesn't matter what font, and it does it from scratch as well as editing existing warped text. Did my warp feature become corrupted somehow?

So far I have been able to get the IAcadTableStyle object from the acad_tablestyle dictionary, but there is no property for text style. Is this even possible? Code and results are below.
(defun DumpTableStyles ()
(setq dict (vla-get-dictionaries (vla-get-activedocument(vlax-get-acad-object))))
(setq TableStyles (vla-item dict "acad_tablestyle"))

I'm sure there's a way to do it, but I just don't know how (plus I'm horrible at math & geometry, I'll admit). I have the attached dieline, and I need to 'warp' my art to match it somehow.
Using Illustrator CC. I made a sphere shape and reshaped it using a warp effect.
Now when I try use a transform command (reflect or rotate) it only effects the “original” bound box which is the sphere I first made, and not my warp effect shape. My question is can I modify a shape after I apply a warp effect?
I imported a music graphic to AI, selected it, then chose warp and changed some settings in Lower Arc, but nothing happened. How to do it?
View 20 Replies View RelatedI keep trying to apply the same drop shadow to warped text, but AI automatically makes the text glow instead of having the drop shadow. I have tried retyping the text, copying the text from another file, and expanding the appearance befor using the warp and to no avail-- it always turns my drop shadow into a glow.

I have inside every text,Mtext contents different text style like Arial_1 , Arial_2.
How i can give all the contents inside one style ? the normal procedure i will enter inside text to enter editing mode and changing text format style one by one. I want it once.
I want to save my routing of entering every text to change its content text style.
(Notice:select all from outside without editing mode will not do the job)
I wonder if it is possible to create a new text style where one can set the text to be already rotated.
I know that it is possible to rotate text in many ways but the styles always seem to be set on the horizontal to begin with.
