I'm trying to make a curve that follows a path that changes direction. I've tried to carry the zigzag effect accross line using the compound path option, but the curve double in on themselves and don't make a continuous line.
how would I go about having the effect on the left side of an image and then fading out to show the original image (without the effect) in a nice even clean way (ie not just stopping suddenly) anyone know?
Can you make a Pen Tool path (white), and then, by using the Brush Tool, color it in automatically ONLY within the path's designated area?
Having the ability to do this would enable me to create "digital watercolor" images with texture. I would take the white paths, and then select a color and use the Opacity Tool to make the colors look like watercolor paint by using the Brush Tool. The issue is: can I make a color texture in any path?

How to create the effect of an object (in this case a crown) hanging on the edge of a letter (on the end of a word). I am designing a logo for our kids ministry at church. It is called "Kids of the King" and I have an eps of a crown and I want to hang the crown off the K in the word King. I am trying to make it where the back half of the crown is hidden behind the K so it gives the effect of it hanging off the edge of the letter.
whenever I try to create the effect to looks flat. The red lines stay on the top and do not wrap it suggesting the straw to be 3D. Another problem i am having is making the shadows on the straw to also look realistic.
I am trying to create a graphic style that will give me a frame that has the 3d rounded effect. Bevel and Extrude isn't what I am looking for... I have a pic here with a bevelled edge effect, but it has a flat surface...and I want it to look round...

URL....My logo on the file that i created it in looks perfect. When i create a new, blank AI file and paste it into it, it pastes as a faded version of my logo. I have gone through all the settings i could find between my two files and made them identical, it still happens. When i paste the logo into the same file it was created in it pastes correctly.
I'm making some graphics to be printed on a car. I have some lines with outer glow on them, but Illustrator won't render these unless I use 72DPI in raster effects reslution. I would like to go higher, but it won't give me anything. Guessing it's to heavy for Illustrator maybe? Is there anything I can do about this? I'm making my graphics in 1:1 scale, but I do it in a lower scale since it's just vector art anyway, however how would that effect my glow? Since it's a raster effect.
I have a 2D elevation drawing of a new building I am designing. It has a curved canopy that I want to put the name of the facility on. How do I create the illusion that it is on the curve?
I need to create text along a curve. Is there a plugin for that? I will have a graphic in a circular shape and need text at the top and bottom to be curved to follow the circular graphic.
I just got a bunch of new brushes and one of them is a series of 4 stitches that are oriented horizontally and look just like this - - - - . How can i run this in curves so that it still looks like stitches? When I stroke a path it creates a black mess(while using brush). When I drag and draw freehand the results are not much better. Is there anyway to make it so this can follow some sort of curved path? As if you are rolling the brush along a line like a paint roller and keeping the integrity of the brush? I'm using Gimp 2.6.10.
When I create a curve using spline on the screen I have noticed that often the curve between the points of the spline will become as straight lines. When I click on a point the curve appears again as normal and as I wanted. Any way to stop it from happening? Is this simply a characteristic of AutoCAD or something I am doing wrong? Does the curve appear as desired when plotted? The curves I am referring to are sections of a ships hull.

I am trying to create a subassembly with a curve in it. See attached .pkt and .dwg files. Very small and simple.
When I attach the Subassembly to the Assembly, the event viewer shows "[Something wrong with current subassembly: The given key was not present in the dictionary.] (Source:Subassembly.Subassembly1)"
The link that represents the curve does not display; only the tesselated points display. In the Subassembly Composer the curve does display.
The file called curved.zip needs to be renamed to curved.pkt. This forum does not allow attachment of files with pkt extension.
I try to create a curve with 3 or more equal segments. When I draw random curve using the "Freehand tool" I always get curve with several not equal segments.So how can I create a curve using VBA Macro so that the curve has equal length of the segments.I attach two pictures with curve that i have and with curve that I need to have.
