I created a simple tree using one the visor's standard trees (oakWhite).
It appears properly with colors on the screen.
When I convert it to Polygons and export as obj (including mtl files), the obj contains a black tree (see picture below).
How can I make sure to get the colors and texture attachments ?
I am trying to export a DWG as a WMF in AutoCAD LT 2008. Every time I export it, whether from model or paper space, a black border is placed around the exported image. Is there any way to get AutoCAD to stop adding this border?
I was opening it in Adobe Illustrator to delete the border and exporting as a WMF from AI. However, this last export was distorting the image i.e. in AutoCAD the distance between points A and B were equal, but in AI the distance between A and B were NOT equal. It is critical that the image is not distorted in any way.
It must be a WMF because it is being used by a piece of software my coworker is coding. The software cannot handle any other vector graphic formats. A vector graphic is necessary because the software has a zoom function.
Finally, I cannot use BetterWMF or anything similiar because I am unable to install software on my work computer.
I have an animation which I want to drive a plexus system in AE. I've used a script allowing me to export an obj sequence to drive the plexus but I can not have any noise effects on an obj sequence without getting massive hemerraging in the animation. I was hopeing to attached locators to points on the character within maya and bake in their movement and export them out with a cam to after effects.
I can get the locators and cam across just fine like you might do if you wanted to get cam tracking across into after effects. My issue is that the nulls come out static and I was needing to use those to attach points to drive the plexus which would give me a "static" plexus and allow for smoother noise manipulation. All in all I need the locators "nulls" to still have there animation data transfer.
My only other solution I've come up with thus far is animating the individual points manually to a playblast of the character using a 3d cam track a basic guide.
There must be a way to export out locators that will move into after effects and retain there movement!
I am trying to make a png (tried a gif too) by going to File >>> Export for Web.
In the new window I selected following: -
Format: PNG
Color Mode: RGB color (24 bit)
Transparency Box: Checked
In Advanced, Anitialiaced Box : Checked
Embed color profile Box: Unchecked
Interlaced Box: Unchecked
Resolution 72
The image displays in comparison window as transparent but when I save this image and upload it on my website, the background changes to black instead of transparent.
I am using windows 7 Premium (64 bit) and Corel Draw X5.
make it a transparent background image.
Running Designer pro 6.1.2.13287 on Windows 7 Home Premium
I'm probably bumbling around and buggering up the export of png formatted images, but it appears something besides transparency is getting exported as backbround.
I do `Select all' then export to png.The poorly drawn green arrows were added in photoshop to show the area I'm talking about. The xara document which is apparently also getting exported in some way.At least certain other tools see a black background in that area. Not all tools have that problem with the image. For example; photoshop sees only transparency there.
But when I browse the exported *.png files with `Epson print CD', it sees black in that area as illustrated by the screen grab below.The first two images look clean as expected (I'll explain in a moment) but the third (the one that hasn't been cleaned in Photoshop) shows the black background in that area.
The first two were cleaned up in photoshop and now appear clean as expected.So to get a usable image for import into Epson's tool I must:
1) Export as PNG from Xara
2) Open with Photoshop and run thru a procedure where anything outside the outer blue ring in the image is deleted.(Even though PS only sees transparency, if I select everything from the blue ring outward and delete it, saving back to png, then Epson's tool sees transparency there)
3) Import into `Epson Print CD' and print the graphic to a printable DVD.
How can I skip the second step? That is, how can I get a clean export in step one? What is it that some tools are seeing as black background?
You can render passes in Maya that split up a beauty image into layers like reflection, diffuse, specular etc.
One option is to save these passes in float openexr files(for ultimate color fidelity).
The beauty exr file reads just fine in photoshop.
The render passes however show up as black in photoshop even though they are not as verified by imf_disp, a viewer program that comes with Maya.
I know the problem is that the header in the renderpass openexr file is the name of the "renderpass"(eg "specular") as opposed
to RGBA.
The solution for me has been to use a program that comes with Maya called imf_copy to replace the headers of the renderpass files.
in windows I use the following command line:
"C:Program FilesAutodeskMaya2012inimf_copy.exe" specular.1.exr specular_forphotoshop.1.exr
This results in the new file specular_forphotoshop.1.exr which is no longer black when opened with photoshop.
I have a new problem in Maya 2013. When I select the mesh and select 3D paint it turns black... and if I set any color I paint with grays. It happens with all my characters, and I didn't had this problem before.

1. Black drop shadow does not appear black when Publish to PDF
2. The object beneath the drop shadow will appear as show below:
I've tried to convert the drop shadow to bitmap but the result is same.
When I import an eps, or create a new object with a shape tool. The default style is a clear fill and a hairline CYMK black (0,0,0,100) outline. I think I know how to change it to true black (0,0,0,0), but when i import an eps or an illustrator file, it is coming in as CMYK black (0,0,0,100)

View 2 Replies View RelatedUsing Acad LT 2014, Win8. Using stb plot style. I also tried printing from my Win7 laptop, same result. Does not appear to be a Windows8 issue.
I am having something odd happening, I think it is new with 2014.
I noticed that my lines are not actually printing as black, but rather a very dark brown or almost black.
I have a stb style (Bk 1.00), Color = black, screening 100, and for some reason it's not really printing full black.
One layer (A-Elev-Maj) is set for color 132, but the plot style is Bk 1.00. It prints on my Canon Pixma and on pdf as very dark brown.
I have another layer (A-Fill-Bk) set to color 0,0,0, and also plot style Bk 1.00, and it prints dead black.
I tried making the A-Elev-Maj layer 0,0,0 and it still prints an "almost" black.
I checked in the stb file, it is really set to black. I tried 250, as well as 0,0,0 and go the same result.
Attached pdf. You can look at the fence railing or the triangle chimney cap to see the comparison of the A-Fill-Bk which is printing actual black and surronding lines which are "almost" black. Zoom in and you can see it.
I have been working on a large number of sketches. At this stage I am just using the path tool to make the outlines of my cartoons.
I have got fairly confident with the path tool now, however on my first 3 pictures my paths were a mess. The first 3 pictures I stroked the path at 10 pixels, I would like to reduce this to 6 pixels. I am not able to go back to the original paths so I guess I need to select lines from the completed pictures and and convert these to paths, then restroke.
I have been trying to select by colour (it is all black) but that gives me the outline of the black, ie, a double path. I have tried selecting the back ground and expanding it by 2 pixels, this worked but not in tight corners.
Object that I make black, do not stay black - Why?
I'll change it to black, do some more work and later I notice that it's not quite black. after checking the properties, I will see that it is in fact back to some default value and I have to again set it to black, 0,0,0
Why will it not stay black?

Alright, I have a grunge vector I'm using in an opacity mask over my shapes. I need to convert my .eps grunge vector to full black, if I dont then the end result looks fine in illustrator...but when brought into PS you can still see light pieces of the object that the grunge was supposed to mask out.
When I click the eps file and use %100 black: instead of filling the grunge bits to black, it fills the entire selection black so I end up with a big black box, and if I use the stroke, it outlines the box itself. I tried making a compound path and also expanding the grunge, then retrying but no dice. Does AI recognize this eps file as one big square selection?
How do I get my .eps grunge vector %100 black rather than the CMYK black?
win xp CS2 We have tif files of drawings placed in a ID publication. Our printer has informed me that the drawings, which are basic line drawing wtih a color panel behind, are constructed of 100% of all four colors and therefore too much ink for the press to handle. The printer wants the black converted to a rich blk (40, 20, 10, 100)Is there a easy clean way of doing this? I suspect it's something in the channel pallette. Your thoughts?

View 9 Replies View RelatedTotal buffoon when it comes to getting GIMP to do what I want to do. I'm just practicing with making maps, black lines on a white background, and I've run into some issues I'm wondering if I can get rectified.
1) For whatever reason, the line weight of everything has shifted throughout the file, ending with some lines lighter and grayer than others. Is there a way I can get GIMP to trace all the lines in a uniform black, with uniform thickness?
2) I have tried locking the white background, but often when I select and move my black lines, if I don't click in just the right spot it moves the white background instead, which is really, reeeaaaly aggravating. How Do I get that background to be completely untouchable?
3) In trying to colour the image, I've run into problems with their being a white outline between the colour and the black lines. I think I need to sharpen the image or somesuch? How can one correct this issue?
4) Is there anyway to convert the black dotted lines of the paths tools into straight black lines, in regards to an older file? If not, is there an easy way to trace them?
5) I find the scale too tends to make my image too jagged. I want to take a section of my map, move it too another file and enlarge it to do detail work - what's the best way to do this in order to have a clear image?
6) Any way to translate an image from a MErcator Projection ot a Winkell-Trippel projection, one that works on a Mac?
When I try to open a TIFF file, exported from CorelDraw X4, PS gives me the following error: "Could not complete your request because of a program error".
I use Photoshop CS2 and CS4, and CorelDraw 12 and X4.
In CS2 I can open tiffs exported from CorelDraw 12 and X4 without problems.
In CS4 I can open tiffs, exported from CorelDraw 12, but cannot open those from X4.
I've tried various settings for tif export in corel - no compression, LZW compression, with & without applying ICC profile, RGB & CMYK color, etc... The result is always the same.
On other computer the things are the same, but the error message is different: "Could not complete your request because an unexpected end-of-file was encountered".
I am using CS4 when I slice an image and go to File > Save For Web & Devices and I save it, it doesn't save the HTML file just the image slices.
View 4 Replies View Relatedproblem when i open DWF file (exported from Revit 2014) into Autodesk design review 2013 i cannot see the file in
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm going to be building an RC airplane for a winter project. Somebody drew the pieces in AutoCAD but before I have the parts sent out to be laser cut, I want to prove out the design. Since I have limited knowledge on AutoCAD, I thought I would bring the CAD file into MAX and do a virtual build there.
I've come across a few pieces so far that need to be adjusted. I can easily tweak them in max, but when I export them back out as a dwg, they have a lot more verts in CAD than they did compared to the original CAD drawing. I am guessing this is because MAX needs them to be editable splines and CAD uses polylines, and the two are just "different".
Short of doing my virtual build in AutoCAD, what are my options? Is it possible to adjust a CAD drawing inside MAX, and keep the nice clean lines AutoCAD has when I open the exported file in CAD?

I have LR 4.3 and CS5. I have always chosen the Edit in PS CS5 option from LR for editing individual RAW files. When I save my photo in PS, I save it as a jpg. Once back in LR, I would have to synchronize the folder in order to import that new jpg and it would show up alongside the original RAW file. Well now, after upgrading to 4.3, synching won't see that new photo that was created. It IS in Finder, but LR doesn't see it.
I have expanded stacks and no filters. Is there anything else I have to do?
If I use Filters/Metadata/File Type, no jpg's appear.
The only way I can see the photo is if I use the Text filter and write .jpg.
How can I get the jpg to show alongside the original RAW file again??
I'm also getting the "File must be saved as a copy"in the PS dialogue, when I save as jpg. Before, it would just save it as the file type is different.
