Photoshop :: Make These Shapes In PS?

Jan 15, 2007

Im talking about the more geometric shapes in the background. The things like the perfectly symetrical tear drop, and the white dots aligned as a circle... I have no idea how they could be made in PS (without having to do a lot of slow manual work).

Are there some useful features that I overlooked?

Also is there a name for this type of style?

Photoshop :: CS5 - How To Make Shapes In The Sky Out Of Clouds

May 19, 2012

I have intermediate level knowledge of Photoshop (CS5). I did a one-day course a couple of months ago, where the instructor told us how to put shapes/images/text in the sky and then make it so that it looked like cloud.

For example we wrote something like, "High in the Sky", then managed to make it look like it was like clouds in the sky that were spelling it out. We also dropped a picture of a plane or something then did the same thing, so there was a cloud shaped plane in the sky. The problem is I've completely forgotten how to do this but it so happens I need it for a work project I am doing.

Photoshop :: How Do I Make Shapes With Borders?

Aug 26, 2008

I'm looking to make a box that is empty in the middle but has a border. I'd like to be able to set the thickness of this border. I remember being able to do this fairly simply in CorelDRAW so I'm surprised that I haven't found the technique yet in Photoshop. Here is an example. I made that using the Rectangle Tool and merging the 4 layers to form a bordered box. This is not an effective method when my canvas is 2550 x 3300 px.

GIMP :: Make Parallel Shapes Using Path Tool Similar To Photoshop?

Mar 13, 2012

way to make parallel shapes using the Path Tool similar to Photoshop?

I haven't used Photoshop in a while, but I remember that you could hold CTRL (on PC) and click with the Pen Tool and it would straighten up your shape for you once the paths are connected and would like to do similar in GIMP but can't find out how.

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.

InDesign :: How To Make A Variable Object Style (fill) To Be Triggered By Running Header Change

Mar 28, 2014

I have a long document with text variable running headers along page edges. Behind each running header on the Master Pages, there is a black band. I want the color black to change to several different fill colors, when the running header changes, to define different "sections."

It's one document, no separate chapters or sections, at this point. See attached image.

Is there a way to tie the fill color of these colored bands to the running header so that it changes when the running header does? I think what I'm looking for is a way to make a variable object style (fill) to be triggered by the running header change. I have no experience writing scripts, but am willing to try. Plan B will be to unlink the master items and manually recolor on each page.

CorelDRAW X6 :: Creating Shapes Through Inverting Other Shapes

Nov 18, 2013

I drew something up on a sheet of paper, scanned it, then traced it's bitmap as line art. I then proceded to edit the vectors to recover all the detail I lost with the tracing. It took forever!

Now that I´m done, I realised there is a problem... how can I color in the drawing, if the lines themselves make up the shape? Essentially, I´m left with blank spaces in between all the lines instead of solid individual shapes that can be colored in.

What can I do? I´m so desperate I´m thinking of creating a gazillion individual shapes with the colors, and slapping them underneath the lines to "improv" a fill. But that will take waay too long, so is there an easier way?

If I could "invert" the shape I have now, so that the blank spaces become individual shapes, and the lines become blank spaces.

Photoshop :: How To Turn 2 Shapes Into 1

Sep 2, 2012

I would like to take 2 Rounded Rectangle shapes that I have rotated by 45 degrees and make them one shape so that the Paths of each rectangle become one. I've looked up Paths, Shapes and other things in the manual but I've been unable to narrow down the right keywords to find what I'm looking for.
 
I have used the Pen Tool but I'm not satisfied with the outcome of the Rounded Corners. I know I can use Combine Shapes but not when I first need to Rotate the shape. 

Pretty sure I've done this before but for the life of me I cannot recall how nor can I find it in my notes. Here's a pic of what I want to change into one shape with one continuous path.

Photoshop :: Combining 2 Shapes In CS6

Aug 14, 2012

I have a shape, it has no fill, so it's just an outline, let's say it's an outline of a leg.
 
Now what I want to do is draw another outline inside that leg outline, but I don't want 2 end up with 2 separate shapes (2 layers), I want to draw the 2nd outline directly into the first one, so it's all one big vector shape.
 
For some reason this seems impossible to do in Photoshop CS6. If I select combine shapes, from the menu, free form pen tool and then draw the 2nd outline into the 1st outline, when I stop drawing I don't end up with one outline combined (on top of) the first, instead it just seems to do some weird clipping and I end up with the first outline shrinking, and the outline I just drew appearing not as an outline but as a path.
 
This is something that works perfectly in Flash pro, you draw a shape, you draw another one on top and you then have both perfectly combined, no fuss no bother. You can even vary the stroke strength at any point along the line in Flash, I'm not sure this is even possible in Photoshop.

what's going wrong in photoshop or how to do that in photoshop?

Photoshop :: Not Saving All Shapes

Oct 13, 2012

I have designed a logo in Photoshop CS6 using both the text and shape tools. I have converted the text layers to shapes. When I try to save logo using "Define Custom Shape", it only save the outer circle and not the whole shape(s) even with everything is selected using the Selection Tools. This occurs if I have selected multiple layers, or have mereged layers to one layer.

Here is my shape:-
