Illustrator :: Creating Symmetric Design From Hand-drawn Base

Jun 17, 2013

I have designed a logo for a company rebrand which they are really happy with; the only thing is that one aspect of the logo is a kind of 'swirl stroke' (URL... ) which I had hand-drawn and modified in Illustrator. They would like this aspect of the logo to appear less hand-drawn, and be as symmetric and clean as possible (ie. in no way hand-drawn).

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Changing String Of Text / Multitext / Dimensions To Another String

Nov 16, 2012

i failed to find one which would change string of a text to other for all types of objects. I mean it was usually either only multitext, or only text, dimensions or attributes.creating one which would change in abt 200 drawings:

-001

-002

-003

to:

-00001

-00002

-00003

in attributes, text, multittext, leaders, multileaders, dimensions..... at the same moment?

It is meant to be used in ScriptPro (by loading lisp in script).

If not possible, then can also open each file and run the lisp in each of them - still would save lot of time.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Remove Iproperty Mass Unit String From Mass Value In Text String?

Oct 3, 2011

I've been looking for a solution to remove the unit string ie Lbs, g, kg from the value given from a 'Mass' value in a text string.

As you may all know, creating text and having a 'physical property - mass' value...the unit string is there...

Lots of people on here have the problem...no-one has got a solution.

Until now...

Basically...open the part you need to get the mass property of in your text string.

Follow the instructions on this webpage...this is the first part...

[URL]

Basically, this creates a Mass property value in the parameters table that you can call on as a text parameter.

It's similar to the custom iproperty model - mass but NOT the same.

Once you have done this, you can go to the drawing of the part and create a text string in the drawing and call it up as shown in this procedure. BUT it still has the unit string.

Here's the best bit that you want to know...

To get RID of the unit string...open up the part again from the drawing...click on the parameter icon...find the user parameter...in the Nominal value column, right click on the value and you get a pop-up that gives you 3 options...

Custom Property Format, Make Multi Value & Delete Parameter.

Click on Custom Property Format.

The pop-up window comes up...showing you the property type...in my case...the 4 left columns read Text, g (grams), Format & Precision...

On the right hand side I have a Preview of the text...then 3 check boxes...Units string, Leading Zero's, Trailing Zero's.

Units string is checked.

Uncheck it.

Close it...Save your part...go back to the drawing and hey presto!...the text now shows the weight you require as a straight value...no units!

Illustrator :: Relink Images Using Replace() String Method?

Oct 23, 2012

I have a script using the dynamic content plugin from illustrator which takes and XML file and replaces it with a new one. All linked text/symbol/image links have their paths updated or text content updated.
 
The problem I have is I have background images which are not dynamic so I need to relink these based on their file path.
 
We have two shares, an OPI & an FPO, because of the size of backgrounf images we keep the FPO links in whilst artworking.
 
What I'd like to do is relink all images if they contain FPO in their file path, I'm in CS5.1. I had a look and found CS6 has a .relink method but obviosuly this is no use to me in CS5.1

Photoshop :: Creating Grid Lines As Design Element?

Mar 15, 2005

Is there an easier way to create gridlines as a design element? I know you can set/adjust the grid in the preferences, but I would like to be able to have the gridlines as something editable (changing colors/scale, etc.) and as an element in the piece (as opposed to just a guide overlay that's not integrated).

Up til now I've been doing this the hard way, using guides and the line tool to create/copy/move each line, etc. building it piece by piece...while this works,

Photoshop :: Creating Text That Pops Up At The Viewer From The Background Design

Aug 25, 2005

I have created a background for a flyer I am making, but would like to add text that takes on the design of the background. So imagine that the background is a piece of cloth, if you placed you hand under the cloth the cloth would take on the impression of the hand. So the text would be poppin' out at the viewer from what would look like underneath the background. Something similar to this. I have seen it on other flyers and was just wondering how it is done.

Illustrator :: Finding And Replacing A Text String To Style Block Of Copy

Jul 19, 2012

Is 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.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Making Design For Centrifugal Water Pump - Creating Loft

Aug 12, 2012

I am making a design for a centrifugal water pump, the rotor was no problem, but I'm having some trouble designing the top case. I thought it would be easiest to create the channel for the water outlet using a loft feature.

I attached the ipt. there are two sketches, and I need a loft from the small to the large one, all the way around the circle. when you see it you'll probably understand what the result should be, but, no matter what I try, either I get an oddly shaped loft, or an error.

Illustrator :: Put White Stroke On EVERYTHING In Design?

Feb 27, 2014

I am fairly new to Illustrator, although since I'm pretty good at Photoshop (I have used it exclusively for graphic design for 10 years) I have been picking up Illustrator fairly quickly. I created a design but would like to put a white stroke on everything so that it will look good on both dark and light colored shirts, but I can't figure out how to do this. It's SO simple in Photoshop, but I need the vector capabilities of Illustrator more and more these days so I really need to learn how in Illustrator.
 
All of my objects are in separate layers so I have tried to combine them and merge them to create a new stroke around them but all this does is group them and still create new strokes on each individual object. How do I literally MERGE them as they are (front object stays in front, back object stays in back, and they retain their coloring) so that I can put a white stroke around them?

Illustrator :: Making Changes To Design Files

Aug 28, 2013

I'm having an issue with the save feature in Illustrator CS5.5 (15.1.0 for mac). Typically when making changes to design files, we will save the Illustrator file first, then save as a PDF proof to send to the client. Our issue is that the file appears to save correctly, but when opening the Illustrator document a few days later, we find that only SOME of the changes were saved. Now keep in mind that I've only saved the document once, why would only a few changes save from one single save point?
 
On top of this, our PDFs come out without any problems, and all changes save just fine.
 
This is a major issue for us, as we need to be able to trust that ALL previous changes save, as we use the Illustrator document to create subsequent versions. We don't have the time to check through every minute detail to make sure that the file saved properly. This should be a very basic function of the program, yet it is creating big time headaches for us.
 
Could it be that we are saving as PDF first, then as AI? Would that somehow affect the ability of Illustrator to save properly?

Illustrator :: CS4 Design Suite Not Working After OSX 10.7.5 Upgrade

Jun 7, 2013

I recently upgraded my Mac OS to 10.7.5 from 10.7.4. I also upgraded Java from SE6 to 7.  Now my cs4 design suite will not open.  I click on the Illustrator alias but nothing happens. I get the Rainbow Pinwheel that spins for 2 seconds and then stops.  This also happens when I try using Photoshop, InDesign, and Dreamweaver. I've also tried opening using the .app file in the applications folder, but the same thing happens.
 
A side note: I tried to revert back to Java 6 with no luck.  and I do not have a back up of my OS to revert back to 10.7.4.  Everything was working great prior to the upgrades.
