I have converted an image into a photomosaic aimed at creating a pixelated look
on an image 725 x 725 pixels. The Mosaic is 100 x 100 grid.
I would now like to replace each color in the mosaic with a symbol
can this be achieved, if so how?
How do you edit the colors of the individual elements of symbols? Is there a way to do any editing once the objects have been added as a group as a symbol?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make a fairly simple user interface. I have 3 buttons on stage and each button will pull out a correspoinding symbol from the library and display it on the stage.
Eg. Click btn1 and it will show content1 from the library.
So far it is working in that it shows the corresponding content but it appends subsequent content to the bottom of it. I need the content to be replaced instead.
I would prefer if I could dynamically get content from the library instead of having items on stage that are set to 'hide' and 'show'.
Note: I noticed that when you create a child symbol on stage that Edge gives it a randomly generated ID. There is some code towards the bottom that tries to rename its ID attribute. I am not 100% sure if it is even doing what I expect it to do.
var btnArray = ['btn1','btn2','btn3']
function init(){
for (var i = 0; i < btnArray.length; ++i) {

1) I'd like to use the "replace color" function in order to remove a background color and make it transparent. How do I do that? I can make it green, red, whatever color I like but not transparent!?
2) There's another part, which is black, that I want to make red. Now when I replace the colors it becomes gray.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm struggling a bit with replacing colors .
1. I have a photo of a cat whose eyes are highly reflective of light. The color is not red but white. In another photo I have a photo of a dog whose eyes came out as bright green.
I'm wondering, in GIMP 2.8 for Windows XP Pro, how I might remove those colors and substitute the animal's true colors or something more natural? It's not red eye or else I would try the Red Eye removal feature.
2. I have a third photo of a dog lying next to papers. I'd like to substitute, perhaps, the blond/brown desk color over those white papers so that it looks like there are no papers in the photo.
Is there an easy way to do that? I was reading about an EXIF plug-in named Save for Web which is supposed to remove prior info about your photos. Will that plug-in work once I make the eye color and white papers changes in my photos?
I have scanned our baseball teams calendar schedule which has the days colored-coded; red for home games and white for away games. Also, they certain special home dates colored in a light blue. I want to replace all the light blue days with the same red that is already in use on the rest of the schedule.
I can find no way to use the red as the sample color, or transpose the RGB values shown into corresponding Hue, Saturation and Lightness values used in the Replace Color tool.

I work all across the country with different architects and engineers on a contract basis. Typically I create a custom menu that reflects each clients colors, symbols, layering ect. But now I have just upgraded to Acad 2012 and don't know how to create a custom menu in 2012 for each client. Is it even possible? What I have found is the customize button but when I modify a command for a specific client it makes the same change for all clients, as all that I was doing was modifying a workspace, and only modifying the command. What I have done in the past is to take the Acad.mns and copy it and rename it client-name-Acad.mns and make the necessary changes that the clients standards required. Can I still do something like that?

Most of the time I got issue with placed pictures that I have to take a lot of time to do it one by one, so I am looking for any action to peform in bulk as follow:
1. Select all pictures and change their 'Placment Options'
2. Replace all pictures with only one same picture
3. Cancel the repacement at once (if you select 100 pictures to relink, then you decide to cancel you'll have to press Esc 100 times too!)
I tried to create action for Placement Options too, but seems that the action cannot be recorded with such activity.Are all these improved in CS6?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've tried replacing a blend spline with a circle in order to get an easily editable "flowering effect" but it's not working out.
The blend does accept the circle as its new spline, but the start object and end object aren't distributed along the circle equally. The Blend only travels around the circle 270 degrees.
Is there a trick to making this work?
So I'm trying to create a fairly simple script that will measure the size of art on the artboard for making printing plates. That part I have working. But once I have made one file, I have to delete the measurements layer manually (which is where the script puts them) so that I can make the next one. I need the script to check and see if there is a layer called "measurements" delete it and then create a new one called "measurements" in which to put the dimensions of the (new) artwork. This way I can keep making files and "saving as" with a new name.

View 1 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.
Alright I am trying to create a shape made up of tons of instances of a symbol (best example of what I am trying to achieve is here )
I hoped I could just use draw inside mode and the symbol sprayer however I am not able to ensure the instances don't colide and that they actually completely fit inside the shape without being cut off.
I am obviously going about this the wrong way but have searched for unsuccessfully for any instruction on how this could be achieved.
Okay I'm having a serious issue with the Symbols Sprayers Tool. Whenever I spray Symbols on the screen they keep on moving apart from each other. I want to continuously spray a Symbol on the screen and have them stick in one spot, not continuously move apart. As a result of this, I have to keep on locking one Symbol on one layer, then making another Symbol on another layer and lock it, and continue in that pattern. Is there anyway to stop the Symbols from moving?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI can use the sprayer to make a set of symbols. And then I can break a link between the set and the symbol. Can I recover/make the link again? Not Ctrl+Z immediately after vrealing the link. Imagine that I break the link, them use some tools, move some objects (so, I can not use Ctrl+Z, because I will lose those changes) and then select the set again and ... what? I do not see any way to bind it to the symbol again.

I need to place a series of symbols in a document in Illustrator CS3... some symbols have multiple instances, some have only one... i need to be able to refer to them by name... right now, i can only seem to place them using this syntax...
make new symbol item in document 1 with properties {symbol:symbol 1 of document 1}
i'd like to use something like this...
make new symbol item in document 1 with properties {symbol:{name:"Text Tag"}
i've tried different syntax after the "symbol" property, but i can't seem to find what works, if there's anything that actually works...

I have Illustrator files of some fairly complicated schematics that I will be bringing in to Flash. The layers are already well organized and named so I would like to select particular layers, hit a "create symbols" button and have all of the selected layers turned into separate symbols that have the same name as their layer name. I would even be willing to code something to do this but I can't find any information about how it can be done.
I know that I can import an Illustrator file into Flash and select layers that I can then make into movie clips but again, I have to manually select the layer, tell it to be a movie clip and then give it an instance name. I would be happy to try to automate that process as well but haven't found any info on how it can be done either.
how I can batch create symbols from my existing layers?
