I want to cut (or copy) a section from an image on my artboard, but I can't see to find a way to do it. For example, in Microsoft paint I can use the select tool to draw a rectangle around part of the image and Copy or Cut that selection into the clipboard and paste it back.
I know I can cut this out and paste it onto an Artboard, but I am curious about the capability in Illustrator.
I have an object that i need to cut a section out of the middle and bring the two remaining sections together.
View 5 Replies View RelatedJust for clarification, are there any drawbacks to just dragging an image from my desktop onto an artboard instead of placing it? The image will not be autotraced, and will become part of a layout in my AI file.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have downloaded an eps file, which I need to cut. I use a graphtec ce5000-60 cutter, and a plugin called cutting master 2 in order to use coreldraw.
when i select application launcher and choose cut / plot, it opens cutting master. when i do this, it only shows the 2 outer lines of the logo i need to cut. I have attached a screenshot so you can see exactly what I mean. I have tried lots of things to recitfy this, but as a complete beginner with this software, I really dont have a clue.
i have a vector that i want to apply an image to. So i dropped the image into illustrator, and made a clipping mask, but if i go to save it, or print it, it tries to print space where the image is, even though it's only inside the vector outline. Kind of confusing with the wording, see pics, but I just want the vector to cut out of the image, and get rid of the rest of the image.

When dragging and dropping an image from FF 20/21 into AI CS6, it forces elements on the art board to be displaced.The image dragged into the app will plop into the middle of the art board, and anything in the file just gets moved.
Where it gets moved to is inconsistent- but it appears to always move on a diagonal.
breaking wall section views ? ie. using the section view tool works very well for a BIM wall type, but how can we cut the section so we don't need to have the view show the entire height, etc of the wall. especially when fitting in representative sections of twenty different wall types/situations on a single sheet ?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have these two pipes, one is 4" diameter (running horizontally) and the other is 6" diameter running at a 30degree from horizontal angle. eventually the two hit, and at that intersection I need to make the 4" pipe join to the 6"' pipe, which then continues on its merry way farther down the structure. So I can extrude the two pipes, and I can even make a union and then remove the excess of the 6" pipe, because what I am really looking for is: a cutting diagram for the joint where the remaining 4" pipe hits the 6" section. A cutting diagram for the short piece of a Y joint.
I can make this image appear on my screen, but I am then stumped as to how to unwrap the pipe into a flat section so that I can see the curvature of the cuts required in planar view, for the real pipe that I have on my shop floor.
I am making a video in Nero Vision 10 and need to cut out the screen of a tv so that I can layer the TV over an image/video so it looks as though it is on the screen. I enclose a screenshot of the project. 'Transform-tools-crop' only cuts in straight lines so I wonder which device I should use which can cut out an odd bespoke shape? You can see in the uploaded image from the project how the image currently cannot fill the frame without covering it.

So i was thinking if someone have any tip or in another way , maybe someone wanna cut the image out for me i am a bit shaky on my hand when i use the lasso-tool so its hard to get it good even if i zoom, and besides that ,is the cut-job ,well its important,
but its a thing that i wanna get over as soon as possible so i can start being creative ill post the image i will work with (its only the shape i want) it will be bigger in reality but i had to take a smaller pic of it to get it posted :
I raise chinchillas and would like to cut out some images and just change the background on others.

When trying to cut out an object on a digital photo and deleting the background I can't seem to delete the background. These are the steps I take.
1) Pen tool to cut out the object.
2) Make selection
3) Invert selection Ctrl+Alt+I
4) Delete Ctrl+D
It is step 4 that does not work, as the background does not delete.
I have a jpg image that has a table of contents on it. I want to slice it horizontally by each topic (8 topics) so I can export the eight new images. Eventually I will be inserting the images into Word, and will hyperlink each topic slice to a page in the document. The Word document will then be converted to an eBook. So far I've only been able to slice the image by overlaying a rectangle on the TOC image and using; Combine shapes/subtract command or crop the original image 8 times. There must be a simpler way. Ideally I'd like to just cut the one image with 7 horizontal slices, so I can easily piece it back together in Word. I looked at the image slicing function but couldn't figure out how to have multiple names on one image. I have GD 7.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to cut a solid into two pieces using a non-planar cutting plane? I have been tasked with calculating the volume of concrete damage in a chute block. I have a sketch of the damage on the chute block. I created the chute block as a solid and then drew the damaged area extents using plines. This created non-planar plines. Is there a way to get this to work that will allow me to see the volume of the concrete damage? I need an easy way to do this, there are 50 chute blocks all the same size but with varying degrees of damage

View 9 Replies View RelatedI recently bought Photoshop Elements 5.0 for the purpose of making art layouts for CDs(cover,inserts,traycard). My question is, I would like to take a band logo and cut it to place it on the cover, on top of the background image like this,
first, template
second, background image
on top(third), band logo
I would like to cut the background out of the band logo(or whatever I don't need) and be able to use the logo by itself and place it on the background image(2nd). What is the tool to do this with Elemets 5.0? I have not been able to find it.
I've created an image, and over top I've layered an image of a blood splatter.
The Blood Splatter layer is backdropped by white.

How can I get rid of the white without the magic wand tool, or painstakingly using the eraser?

I'm using Xfrog trees (first time, and quite new to 3ds max design 2011).
The leaves are images laid onto planes. The leaf has a white background and is precreated to be transparent etc.....
In theory i should be able to import the tree, render and everything should work. it's not working. The tree renders with the white background to the leaves
Is there a setting i'm missing, maybe in the render setup?

I have a big artboard with a simulation of a webpage, and a smaller artboard within it, where I'm designing the artwork, so that I know how the big picture will look. In the end, I intend to export the contents of the small artboard. The problem is that whenever I click by accident on the small artboard, my view of the web page gets off-centre.So in short, If I could just lock the small artboard, that would solve this annoyance. For now, I have two options: either delete the artboard and set it back in the end (it's got to be perfeclty positioned though) or, quite practically, just create a custom view with a shortcut that I can use instead of the "Actual size" one (Cmd+1).

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm designing some business cards, which have an 1/8" bleed, along with elements that hang outside of the border of the card. Is there a way in Illustrator CS3 that I can say, "hide everything outside of the Artboard" so I can see what the finished product will look like?
I know I could print them out or output to PDF and see it without the non-Artboard items, but these approaches seem clumsy and labor intensive. I'd like it if I could have some sort of "cropped view"--where everything not on the Artboard is hidden--to work in.
I'm finding that when i add a second artboard to an existing ai, then save and close, it has disappeared on reopening.
I have both pieces of artwork (one for each page), but 1 of the artboards will have disappeared. Irritatingly the remaining artboard sits between the 2 pieces of artwork - in the wrong position for both!!!
I am struggling with the "sAIArtSet->MatchingArtSet()" in restricting it to find the artset from the selected artboard only.
One way is to iterate through the found art set and compare art's artboard index with the index of the selected artboard. Wanted to know if there is some internal SDK suite which does this iteration in a more optimized way ?
