Basically, I want to join the below three shapes into one shape, but when I'm lining up the anchor points and joining, it's saying:
"The selects objects cannot be joined since they are invalid objects".
About once a day, when I click on an object with the direct selection tool, the bounding box will be way larger than it should, implying another object on another artboard is included in the selection.
This happens when the object I am selecting is NOT grouped with anything else. Moreover, is seems buggy because the mystery object doesnt have its "edges" visible the way it would if it were legitimately selected.
I can deselect all, but then anything I click on, the selection's bounding box is expanded to include the mystery object. The only way I have found to deal with it is to drag a corner of the bounding box, then undo, and then click off again. Then Voila! I am able to select my object (or any other) without the mystery selection happening.
I use clipping masks a lot, as well as many artboards, and have wondered if it's related to this, as the mystery objects are sometimes masked images, and often on another artboard. However, the mystery objects are not always masked.
I had it with CS5, and hoped it would go away with CS6, but it has not.
I want to create a right-angled triangle (just the three sides, no fill) where each side is a different color (say red, blue, and green). For generality, let's assume it's a scalene (rather than isosceles) right triangle. I want the weight of each line to be about 3pt. (But I guess that's not a crucial number. Let's say I'd like the sides to be 20 or 30 pts thick, for the thrill of it.) I know how to draw the three lines of specified width, make them different colors, and arrange them into a triangle. My problem is how to make the vertices (corners) look miter-joined rather than have them overlapping each other, which obviously looks terrible and like something an infant drew in Microsoft Paint. ;-) If I join the 3 paths into a single shape, they all become the same color, so I'm thinking I have to keep it as 3 separate lines (paths). The only solution I can think of is: Instead of drawing three lines of 3pt weight, draw three extremely thin rectangle shapes (about 3pt wide), one of each color, and rotate/position them so that they form the sides of a right-angled triangle. Then go in and do some visual surgery at the vertices to make the vertices look miter-joined.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a strange problem going on for CS6... Where when I created a design, grouped all of them so that they had the same center.. then did a force perspective... Some of the letters didn't render while a wire frame does exist for them.
One friend suggested to make sure all of the points are joined, however when I Ctrl+J them, I get an error that says invalid object... which is most likely because they are joined...

I can see all the data (shapefile & ODBC table) correctly in the attribute table, but when comes time to "Query to Filter Data...", only fields in the Shapefile are available and displayed in the Filter dialogue. I want to be able to Filter using fields in the joined. If I export that same Shapefile to an SDF and THEN try the same join and filter, all the fields from the SDF as well as the joined ODBC table are available in the filter dialogue.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have just developed a problem where I can only snap to the origin regardless of where my cursor is. I have tried snapping to midpoints, endpoints, centers, etc. it always selects the origin. I even tried to change the origin to a point I want to draw from, but it sends me right back to the original origin.
I made no changes in the software setup - it started when I opened an existing drawing, and now it affects any drawing I start or open.
There are 3 elements there. the top of the clap board was placed before i started tryinbg to create the slanted dashes that are on the average clapboards. The white dash was skewed using Object > Transform > Shear. Then i attempted to rotate it to fit.
I need 4 of these skwed white squares / trapezoids on the top along with 4 to match on the top of the larger potion of the clapboard. I do not want to eye it as it will be a part of a logo.
What would be the best method to use?Is there a way to draw the 4 rectangles on top of a perfectly horizontal long black rectangle and skew the white dashes at the same time?Is there a way to skew based on the dimensions of the longer black rectangle?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a selection set filter set to get only circles and blocks (INSERT). Then it gets to a part of the code that says for each object in my group of objects... do something.
The first few lines of the "do something" are:
For Each bgaObjID In bgaObjIDs
Dim myBlockRef As DatabaseServices.BlockReference
myBlockRef = bgaObjID.GetObject(DatabaseServices.OpenMode.ForRead)
If it's a block, then it's just fine. If it's a circle, it crashes. Obviously circles aren't blocks and that's why it crashes. I'm trying to set up an If..Then statement so that blocks use one set of statements and circles use another. I've looked at the values for the object ID, but cannot tell how to determine if it's a block ref or a circle.
If it's a circle, I would use:
Dim tempCir As Circle = TryCast(bgaObjID.GetObject(DatabaseServices.OpenMode.ForRead), Circle)

View 1 Replies View Relatedi tried restarting gimp but it did not fix my problem. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, my fuzzy select tool selects WAY too much even at a threshold of 1. at 2 it just selects the whole picture.Re-installing did not fix.
i am creating black/white based icons. So it is a 48x48 image. i am mainly trying to fuzzy select black, white, and transparent selections. As you can guess, it has become impossible now and i don't know what i did.
EDIT: Okay so it actually isn't selecting "too much" per-say. i willt ry and explain the best i can here:
Black and white image with the exception of some shades inbetween.Select fuzzy select and put threshhold at 1. Click. Selects all the white (i actually think it misses some). i hit SHIFT and click on a pixel that is slightly not white. VERY SLIGHTLY. In fact, it may actually be white. It fuzzy selects EVERYTHING.
Another example on an image that is Black and Transparent (with shades inbetween) Slect black on threshold 1. It selects All the black AND all the shades inbetween. Eveything except flat out transparent. i hit CTRL and select a shad einbetween and it deselects everything.
EDIT 2: Doesnt matter the threshold apparently. It will do this on any.
EDIT 3: The solution, after all, was so save these problematic images as JPG and then open them as the JPG.
Often when working with the brush tool a very strange bug arises.Instead of the brushstrokes being visible in a normal way, the active area around the brush becomes a large square shape, slightly brighter than its surroundings.What this means is i can t see what im painting because a large square blankets the area around which im working. very strange its like the brush is selecting vectors around it as im using it.the actual painted area then become visible again when i release the mouse.i have managed to overcome by restarting LR, but is just keeps happening after using the brush tools for a while.

The “window selection” selects only what appears on the screen! I wanted to select a page number located on the lower left corner of each title block of each drawing but found out that the “window selection” doesn’t keep selecting what doesn’t appear on the screen (if zoom in is applied)! For example, if I select a number of drawings and “zoom in” is applied then the window selection will only keep selecting what appears only on the screen!
Then how to let the “window selection” keep selecting all the objects regarding whether they appear on the screen or not?

I have an assembly with a subassembly in it. The subassemblies bom structure is set on Normal so that the subassembly number shows on the main assembly BOM and not the individual parts.
However when I place the parts list on the .idw of the main menu it keeps on selecting the parts structure for the BOM, I need it to select the structured view. How do I get it to select the structured view on the BOM so that the BOM does not show the individual parts of the subassembly?
I have made sure that the parts view on the BOM in the source assembly is disabled.
i can't be the only one who thinks it's nuts that when 'auto-select > layers' is selected and i drag to select a bunch of layers, i also select layers that are turned off and/or locked, can i?i just confirmed that this IS not the case with CS6 -- locked or hidden layers are not selected upon dragging to select exposed layers.
is this a bug, or a bit of new functionality that i am failing to grasp? i did notice that in CC, on right-click there is the new option to "isolate layers", but this seems to just isolate & unclutter layers within the layers panel.
I have only one user with this problem. He tries to edit an attribute block and when he selects one of the values and erases it the default value doesn't erase. He then has to enter some text and erase that and it works.
