Photoshop :: CS4 Simple Text, Lines And Shapes

Mar 16, 2009

Looking for a simple procedure to create text and shapes in CS4 starting with a blank document. Text added fine. After dragging with the rectangle tool, the result sometimes disappears, or not; in any case it does not print. When I add a line by dragging, the rectangle disappears. I must be missing something about layers, but have tried all the obvious layers commands and they do not seem to help.

Illustrator :: How To Turn Lines Into Shapes

Mar 11, 2014

I'm designing a badge for my cricket team and have created a design using a shield shape which I've divided into four quarters with a horizontal and a vertical line.  How do I split the shape so I can colour the individual quarters?  There are similar areas of the design made up of lines that I want to colour individually.  I guess the question is, if I created a square shape by drawing four separate lines, how do I join the lines in order to fill the square shape with colour?

Illustrator :: And Way To Snap To Tangents Of Lines / Shapes?

Sep 24, 2012

I think there used to be a free script/plugin for illustrator but the company has been bought out and now is working on something else.
 
Anyway, the images below show what I would like.
 
The first, I'd like both the tangent points of the square/triangle snap to that of the cirles. [URL] ....
 
The second, it's already snapped to the bottom as it's horizontal (verticle obviously also snaps) but the angle doesn't. [URL] .....
 
I would not like to just zoom in and guess as closely as possible as there would always be 2 vertices which I wouldn't want.

Illustrator :: How To Merge Lines And Shapes In Order To Create One Final Shape

Nov 9, 2013

I'm trying to create a star icon with lines through it. I used the star shape builder tool and then the line segment tool, but the lines are not being recognised as part of the star shape. For example, when I try to turn the star, the lines remain in the same place. This is pretty much exactly what I am trying to make, but I can't form the segments into one cohesive, editable shape.

Illustrator :: Center Aligned Stroke When Drawing Shapes

Jul 4, 2013

My stroke when drawing shapes is center aligned. When measuring the shape it measures from the outer edges of the shape's stroke and not from the center as usual. I dont know how to change the settings back to measure from the center of the stroke of the shape. As I said, the stroke is adjusted to the center align option...? (using Illustrator CS5)

Illustrator :: CS5 Freezing On Simple Tasks - Applying Texture Grain Effect To Simple Gradient

Jun 25, 2012

Illustrator keeps freezing when applying an effect such as texture-grain to a simple gradient, or even rasterizing a simple black circle. My system is about a 6month old macbook pro with 16gb ram, i7 and AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1024 MB. What could be causing this? It wasn't like this when i first started using the laptop but has started to do it everytime i try and do any of those simple tasks recently.

GIMP :: Make Logo Consisting Of Bunch Of Simple Shapes Which Are All Individual Layers

Sep 2, 2013

I'm trying to make a logo consisting of a bunch of simple shapes which are all individual layers. All of these layers are on top of a transparent canvas. I'm not sure if canvas is the right word, but basically what I mean is that I launched GIMP and made a new image that's 512x512 filled with transparency, and by default that became a layer titled background which I consider to be the canvas of my entire Image.

I can't seem to draw on new layers anymore. I've been trying to make new layers filled with transparency and draw on them with the free select tool, ensuring that the opacity is not 0 and that the layer is selected, but its drawing on the background layer rather than the layer I made to draw on. So now when I try to adjust the position of the layer, the shape I drew stays in the same spot because its not part of the layer.

Illustrator :: Drawing Lines In Front Of A PDF?

Dec 16, 2012

Version: CS6
OS: Microsoft (Windows 7)
 
I brought a pdf into Illustrator and I want to draw a line over a portion of that pdf, but when I draw the line it appears to place it behind the pdf - obscuring portions of the line. I have tried selecting the new line and bringing it to the front or selecting the pdf and sending it to the back without any success.

It's not efficient to have to stop and change the angle of the tool for every stroke -

AutoCad 3D :: Unable To Draw Simple Vertical Lines In Z-axis

Apr 25, 2012

I'm working in ACAD 2012. I am at times, unable to draw simple vertical lines in the z-axis. Drawing pluming riser diagrams in 3D. Steps I am taking,

1) Opening the drawing.
2) X referencing a floor plan.
3) Changing the view using the cube to SW Isometric
4) Using the LINE command selecting a point, aligning the cursor with what seems like the Z-axis and entering the distance, heighten enter.

The line drawn is flat. This line can be seen as flat when rotating views. The only solution I have found is to use the "Reset Autocad Settings to Default"

Observations: Sometimes I am able to draw in 3D just fine, but something will happen in the middle of the drawing process that will now only allow me to draw flat. Also was never able to draw polylines in 3D is that how it's supposed to be? Used another computer with the same drawing, at first won't allow me to draw in 3D but after a couple attempts will eventually draw in 3D just fine. Tried starting from a blank template, no luck. Tried changing drawing space to 3D modeling and 3D basics, no luck. Also, when working drawings with existing 3D objects, I am able to snap to vertical point as a start point but cannot snap to a point on any other points on the object that at are at a different elevation.

Photoshop :: How To Create Effect With Lines Or Other Simple Symbols To Display An Image

Jun 30, 2008

I'm trying to create a certain effect that is probably best illustrated with pictures

created by varying the thickness of lines, whether horizonal or part of letters or even symbols.

I don't know if this is even possible using photoshop to be perfectly honest. If that's the case, does anyone know the software that would be required?

CorelDRAW X5 :: Converting Lines To Shapes?

Jan 19, 2012

I'm currently working with some vectorial cartoonish drawings, and while it's mostly quite easy, I'm having problems with disconnected lines. At the end of a disconnected line it needs to gradually get thinner and end in a small, rounded off point. It needs to to become thinner much slower than the normal rounded-off point, kind of a sharpenned edge effect.

So far the only method I could manage is making a shape instead of a line, but it's much harder to work whenever I want to change something, since I have to rework node by node. So I was wondering if there was a way to convert a line into a shape, so I can modify it all I want as a line, and then turn it into a shape and add the sharpened end.

Xara :: Slicing Shapes Leaves Transparent Lines

Apr 11, 2013

I've got a problem with the combine shapes > slice (cut) shapes. (Designer Pro X).

I often use this tool to cut a graphic to make a repeating object, so I don't want it to have any boarder, just solid color. But for some reason when I cut the shape xara puts a little (approx 1 pixel) transparent line where the shape has been cut. This is often added to exported to the edges of pngs and svgs and looks a bit like anti-aliasing of some sort but I don't want this, just a solid object.

How to avoid this? See my attachment for an example png that I created by simply slicing one rectangle from another, I want to be able to do this without the extra line appearing - ie just solid black.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 :: Importing Objects (Simple Outline Drawing)

Jun 23, 2009

we use Corel Draw but different versions. Some of us use the X4, some X3 and some even 12 or 11. We have huge problem with the time interval past while importing even a single simple outline drawing. We usually wait from 4 - 7 minutes.

My question is what could be the problem? Different versions of Corel Draw?, bed LAN connection?, or something else?
