AutoCad :: Loose Grouping When Using Copy Clip

Feb 12, 2013

So we have this custom construction note routine. It creates all the notes with station, offset, blah blah , and it is all together as once piece. So if you move the note group the leader will stay attached to it and it holds all of the label properties.

When I copy clip, wblock, insert these key notes into another drawing they are no longer a group and there is no way to move them all together.

This has created a lot of extra work and moving stuff around that does not seem necessary.How can I copy or move construction key notes from one drawing to another without losing the group properties. I have tried WBlock and making sure the grouping is on when I copy and paste/insert them but it still doesn't work.

Oh and we are running a 64bit 2013 with the carlson suite application,

Illustrator :: Applying Live Rotate / Multiple Copy Effect On A Group Of Paths?

Oct 16, 2012

I'm intermediate (at best) with Illustrator. I'm using CS6 on a 2009 iMac. How to make Illustrator ignore stroke weight/cap/join settings when I'm applying a live rotate/multiple copy effect on a group of paths? Currently, Illustrator sets the rotation point to the outermost part of my stroke (figuring in the strokes atrributes), but I only want it to calculate the from the path's structure: the coordinates of my designated anchor point.
 
Here's the top/right group of paths with a rotate/ 3 copies effect of 90 degrees. Looks problem-free at this view.

Here's that top/right group of paths with the addition of a reflect/ 1 copy effect of X-axis. Still no apparent problems.
 
But here's a close up of the misalignment of corner points. As shown, the Transform effect is based off the strokes attributes (the tip of its corner), not the actual location of the corner point.

It does not apply different cap/corner styles or stroke alignments; that only slightly nudges the pivot point to the center.
 
Plus, this one point stroke is somewhat arbitrary. I only set it so in order to see my dynamic effects.

Tweaking the vertical/horizontal moves effects of the rotated/copied elements won't support because this art will later undergo lots of alteration, mostly changes in stroke weight (maybe even variable stroke width).

I need the skeleton of my structure to snap together precisely.
 
Any solution, no matter how roundabout, would save this project!

Paint Shop Pro :: X4 Copy And Paste As New Layer

Sep 8, 2012

I've been using PSP since 7.

Now I'm using x4 and I noticed that when I cut/copy a portion of a pic and then paste it as a new image....then I want to copy and paste that portion back into the original photo using paste as new layer....the icon doesn't change automatically from the lasso/cut tool to the move tool.

It used to do that automatically in psp 7 so that right after I paste as new layer, i can move that portion around right away.

In x4, after you paste as new layer, you can't move that layer around because it hasn't changed automatically to the move tool. I have to manually click on the move tool everytime I want to move the layer around. It's very irritating!

Any settings I can change to make it automatically change to "move tool" right after pasting a pic as new layer?

Paint.NET :: How To Be Able To Frame Without Copy And Paste Layering

Feb 21, 2013

I used to use PhotoBucket for editing but they "updated" which was a downgrade.  All their previous editing abilities I was very used to using are gone.  Professional looking frames included.  This is not just placing a colorful line around the edge of a picture.  It was making it look like there was a real frame around it.  Though the option for a regular box or poster frame was there as well and you used to be able size them with a slider.  Examples:
 
realistic frame (the one i'm most interested in getting)

poster frame

stacked several frames

fade frame at edges on picture

The first one is the one I am most in pursuit of.  Maybe I should not have even shown the others they may be a distraction.  I really want to be able to frame without copy and paste layering, mathing out resizing canvas, etc etc work work work, a real looking frame.  Are there any pluggins for Paint.net like that?  Note I've googled already and only found simple boxing in a pic plugs for Paint.net.

Paint.NET :: Copy And Paste Multiple Layers Exactly?

Aug 9, 2012

I'm trying to build a sprite image for a website based on a graphic that I created with Paint.NET.

The graphic has about 6 different layers.

To make the sprite image, I need the items in one layer to be duplicated in the exact same spots only shifted down by an integral number of the height. So, if the original image is 400px, I stretch the canvas out to 1200px. Now I want to copy each of the 6 layers and paste them exactly 400px down, then copy each of the 6 layers and paste them exactly 800px down.

I'm guessing there is a way to do something like this using the scripting ability of Paint.NET, but I have never used that feature before.

Illustrator :: Why Can't Use Live Paint

Oct 7, 2013

I'm working on I've drawn a dragon using the pen tool. Now I want to use the live paint tool, however, after I select my dragon it won't let me "make" the live paint. I also can't expand, not sure if that's related.
 
I tested another simple drawing and was able to both expand and use live paint, so it must be something weird that I've done to my dragon.
 
I have a trial version of CS6. Also attaching a screen cap.

Paint Shop Pro :: Copy And Paste Layer Into Exact Location

Mar 24, 2011

I have a two layer image:

layer 1. background

layer 2. A transparent vector layer with text

I have a second image, the same exact size and resolution as the first two layer image. I would like to paste layer 2 from the first image, into the same exact position on image 2. Every time I paste. it centers the text, whether it is just a ctrl-v, or a paste layer. I've even tried promoting the layer 2 in the first image then pasting as new layer into image two, with no luck. Everything I've done pastes layer 2 from image one, into the center of image 2.

I have PSP Photo X2

Illustrator :: CC Live Paint - Gap Detection

Jul 8, 2013

In Illustrator CC every time I click Merge Paint I need to go back to Live Paint > Gap Options > and reset Gap Detections to "Paint stop at Small Gaps". Despite I set "Paint stop at Small Gaps" as my default many times now, it seems that Illustrator CC  does reset it automatically to "Custom Gaps" and therefore Merge Paint doesn't work correctly. A nightmare, I am forced to use Illustrator CS6!

Illustrator :: Can't Copy Paste From CS

Aug 29, 2012

Ever since I upgraded to CS6, I have big problems copying from illustrator to photoshop.  I can get it to succesfully paste about 20% of the time.  AI starts "not responding" while I'm trying to paste to photoshop every single time, but can usually snap out of it after a few minutes.  It seems to have no rhyme or reason to when it works and when it doesn't.

Illustrator :: CS5 - Live Paint After Tracing / Before Expanding?

Illustrator :: Live Paint Within Pattern Area In CS6

Jun 15, 2013

I am having some issues trying to live paint whilst in the pattern area of CS6. I have created a pattern which I would now like to colour. I am able to colour some areas like the spots on the plants head, but no ther gaps inbetween. Normally when not in the pattern area I can merge live paint and work with all the spaces but I cant do this for some reason. I need to work with the pattern whislt in this mode to ensure that the design is correct.
 
"The selection contains objects that cannot be converted. Live Paint groups can only contain paths and compound paths. Clipping paths are not allowed."
 
Whilst I ma here I am also having a bit of trouble with the oattern swatch. The pattern has been designed for a printed interior wallpaper. In the below image the blue box (follow the green arrow) is the full pattern repeat set at a 1/4 drop. I need that full square rather than a swtach. So effectively I need a 'Tile' that I can then ready for print. The reason for this is that it will be printed on wallpaper (52cm x 10m) and each roll needs to match up either side (with a 1/4 drop)
 
is it possible to 'grab' the pattern in the blue square?

Illustrator :: Dividing Shape For Live Paint

Oct 23, 2012

I have the following image above where I'm trying to add color to different aspects of the drawing. For instance, I'd like to be able to add color to the hair (ie the eyebrows and hair on top of his head) and I'm using live paint to do this. The problem is, some of the live paint areas spill into each other, ie the hair spills into the outline of the head, etc. So I'm wondering, what is the best way to go about dividing these areas so live paint recognizes them as two different entities? What I've been doing currently is drawing a line segment, and then using divide below, however this gives me unpredictable results sometimes and I have a hunch there is a better way.

Illustrator :: Live Paint Erases One Of Strokes

Sep 9, 2012

I've built two different colored strokes around some text (inner layer is green, outer layer is red). When I convert this to the Live Paint Mode by clicking the letters with my Live Paint bucket, a warning comes up telling me certain things might be lost. I press okay, and the red outer layer of the text dissapears. I want that layer to stay though! I've attached pictures of this process.

Illustrator :: Strange Lines Appear When Using Live Paint

Nov 8, 2013

I think this is a live paint issue, but I'm not totally sure... I create an image and filled it in using live paint. It looks just fine when I view it in Illustrator and fine again when I save it as a jpg or gif or png. But once I save as a pdf, I get these tiny white lines where the edges of some of the artwork are.

Photoshop :: Copy / Paste From Illustrator CS6 To CS6

Dec 16, 2012

When copying a gradient filled shape from illustrator CS6 to Photoshop CS6 an outline "halo" appears in the Photoshop image although the shape has no outline to begin with. Is this a clipboard issue? Is it an anti-aliasing setting I can change? Apparently it isn't as noticeable when I drag the shape from illustrator to Photoshop as it is when using the copy/paste command. But in both situations there seem to be issues in the border when gradient filled shapes touch other shapes.

How do you copy and paste a graphic from Illustrator CC to Powerpoint?
 
I know that sounds easy, and it should be...I used to be able to do this the standard way (ctrl+c in Illustrator, ctrl+v in Powerpoint), however now the result is just a load of code inside Powerpoint and no image. (other than exporting as pngs etc.)

Illustrator :: Won't Copy And Paste At 300 PPI Regardless Of Settings

Feb 10, 2014

I just recently reformated my computer and I've been having an issue with copy and paste from Illustrator to Photoshop. Before I could copy a 2"x2" vector box from Illustrator into photoshop making a new document and the size and resolution would match. That is the new document would say 2"x2" at 300 ppi in photoshop and the preset would read "clipboard". I would then hit ok and paste and it would match perfectly. Now since I've reformated, photoshop always creates a new document with the wrong size regardless of the settings I enter in Illustrator or photoshop. I have document raster and effects set at 300 ppi in Illustrator and I have the new document set at 300 in photoshop, but it always transfers the 2"x2" box at 72 dpi regardless of settings. Again this used to work before so I'm assuming there is some setting I forgot about.

The main issue is the clipboard preset is not matching the document size, its almost as if Illustartor is telling photoshop it's a different resolution when it's not. Copying to 72 ppi seems to have no issue, which makes me think Illustrator just isn't sending it out at 300 ppi, but I don't know why as I have the document set at 300 ppi. I confirmed this as I can make a 2"x2" box in photoshop and paste into Illustrator and it reads as 2"x2" at 300 ppi in Illustrator, but if I copy from Illustrator back to photoshop it pastes it at 72 ppi. Changing the settings to 300 ppi in Illustrator seems to have no effect. Might be a bug. Should I try reinstalling?

Illustrator :: How To Reduce Number Of Lines In Live Paint

May 21, 2013

I'm trying to use adobe illustrator to color the background of a photograph green while keeping the person in the picture the same color.
 
I used live trace to get a vector image and then attemped to use live pain to finish the job, but I end up with thousands of blue lines and gaps that are too small to color in. Is there anyway i can reduce the number of gaps so that i can actually paint the background?
 
I've already tried the gap options and adjusting the settings to small medium or large did nothing.If this isn't possible, is there any other feature in adobe illustrator that would allow me to achieve my goal?
 
I have a photograph with a person in the middle; i want the person to remain the same and the background to be changed to green.
