There is a plugin that can solve the edge problem when using the tool redraw characters?Sure I can write each character in its own layer with its own color but maybe there is a simpler solution.
View 4 RepliesSo, i would like to become a Graphic Designing or atleast keep it as a hobby. More likely, i would like to design characters for games, in the beginning 2d sketches and why not 3d models. So, my first question is, what do I have to learn first to become a decent graphic designer, how to start, and what should i focus on?
My second question relates to Paint.NET. So, i've been experimenting with making sprites of images that already exist, by taking parts of them and putting them together, and changing colours and stuff. But now that i've tried making sprites of my own, i've got some problems of making a starting black and white sketch. I've been using the lines and curves tool but the curves are hard IMO to use. I would wanna know if i could copy somehow curves and reverse them, ill give you an example of why I want to do it.The head of the sprite would be cooler, if both right and left side would be symmetric.
What does the Asian characters in the CUSTOM SHAPE TOOL mean? Where can I find the translation?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIts seems important to be able to insert and use special characters in text, as much of the graphics from Paint.net are used on web pages, etc.
When I try to cut & paste text with special chacters it substitutes things like â for ®.
Or did I overlook this feature?
I am trying to fix the above picture to the canvas .I have a background picture downloaded from the net, the picture fills the default size of the paint.net canvasand is 110 Kbyte, the two pictures I want to insert on the picture are 121 Kbyte and 1.4 Mbts.As soon as I insert the 1.4Mb picture on to the background picture this resizes it's self and shoot up to the left hand top corner of the canvas, how can I fix it so that it remains it's original position.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWindows 7; Photoshop 13 (CS6).I am typing some text in a new layer; no problem so far. I need to insert some special characters that are not on the keyboard, e.g.TōkaiThat also was not a problem; I copied the character from the Windows Character Map.
Now I want to copy/paste more special characters from the Character Map, e.g.
☏ (U+260F) or
✉ (U+2709)
Now all of a sudden this does not work; the pasted characters appear in Photoshop as a boxed X.The font I have been using was Arial, but when I pasted these Unicode characters, the font automatically changed to Myriad Pro. Changing the font back to Arial does not alter the boxed X.
I took these Unicode characters from the Character Map using font Arial Unicode MS. That font does not appear in Photoshop.Questions:are there any Unicode fonts available in Photoshop?is there any other way to paste such characters into Photoshop?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI just installed the CS4 Photoshop and have a major issue which makes it impossible for me to use cs4. I used to work with cs3 on the same machine and had not a single problem:Even though I disabled the OpenGL Feature I have an about 100 pixel redraw when I use a brush. Everything else is fine! When I turn OpenGL on it gets even worse.Is there any solution for this?(Yes I already downloaded the latest drivers and downloaded the patch and resteted all settings)
View 2 Replies View RelatedHas anyone else noticed the the screen redraw does not allways happen after moving a slider in Version 11.1. Quite often I have to change the fit to screen or fill screen to have a redraw preformed. I also sometimes need to flatten the layers in order to save the file.Another abnormality I came across was trying to save a >2 GB PSD panoramic file in 64 bit PS creates an error message that the file cannot be saved."Greater than 2 GB". This means I have to flatten the image before saving.System is Vista 64 bit Ultimate with 8GB memory, 200 GB scratch drive.
View 6 Replies View RelatedImagine that you have couple of spheres in your scene and you want to manually rearrange them. You click on one and immediately drag your mouse to move it, and it works just fine and fast while they are sphere primitives. But, if you convert them to edit poly things get messed up, now if you click and start to drag you need to wait for about a second for the thing to start moving. And it's the bloody edit poly's fault. It's command panel UI is just drawing too slow. Why is this? Is this something that just is in max now? Because the same thing annoyed me in 2011 and now in 2012. Or is it me who is doing something wrong? Also interesting is that this problem completely disappears when I add some modifier with a "small ui", like PUSH, to all of the objects. Everything is back to fast and snappy again.
This slowness also happens when I want to switch sub-object levels, it redraws every time, and it redraws slowly.
The 'saying' I am trying to create in a spiral format is 165 characters and spaces. I have pasted it into the spiral effects text box. It will only accept 65 characters in the text box.
If I use the circle effect, I can paste all 165 characters and spaces and the circle adjusts to the size where the entire saying fits into one circle.
How do I expand the amount of characters and spaces the spiral text box will accept and use to create the text image I want?

If I open more than two large files (30-40mb in size) and I try to drag the images around the screen, it will hang or not finish redrawing the image in it's new location. Sometimes it will crash PS.

Are there any good video tutorials for redrawing logo such as the one I'm including. Some of my clients don't have the original artwork and I'm stuck with having to redraw small images to get better quality.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been a long time Photoshop user and am having screen redraw problems since I have purchased a new system. I did not have this problem on my Macbook Pro which was hooked up to the same monitor.
Problem is: When I open a file in CS5 (12.0) and move the image around screen Its not redrawing smoothly. There is some stair-stepping artifacting going on. Its not lagging....just creating some stair-stepping like artifacting.
If I open the same file in "Preview" (version 6.0) and recreate the same image movement there are no problems.

my Addin changes the coordinate systems of some occurrences in a while(running) - loop. After each iteration, i want to update the 3D-View in Inventor to show the calculated changes. For this, i call the Update Method of the current View (ActiveView property of Application).
Unfortunately, the redraw does not happen unless i keep moving the mouse over the window. Is there another method / way to achieve the desired result (forced redrawing for smooth animations)? The Update method of the Document does not seem to work, either.
Using Inventor2011 64 Bit on Win7 (64Bit)
I have a task to redraw floor plans of an existing object (5 floors of 5000m2)... The problem lies in the existing drawings which contain incorrect dimensions.
Now, since the shape and position of elements is generally correct I am able to approximate to a 0.5-1.0m (witch I find annoying).
My question is:
How would you do the task having in mind that when SOME correct dimensions turn up (are measured on site) correcting the rest doesn't become a pain.

Since running x6 my system takes an unrealistic time to refresh graphics. I am working with a simple file and it takes 3 to four seconds to refresh after zooming in. My processor on CPU and Video card barely take a 20% hit.
Is Corel not setup to use the resources available? Is there some sort of Mad Hatter trick to fix it?
Here is a shot of the file I am working on after a fresh restart.
On a new layer, I used the line and curve tools to draw the outline of a human figure. I want to fill the shape with a color. However, I can't figure out how to select the entire figure so that I can fill it using the Paint Bucket tool. How can I do that?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working with vector art that has lines that either look like they were cut off and not finished out or extend to the edge of the page so they are straight when they should actually be curved.
Is there any way to take a straight line or part of an image and curve it with ease or will I have to redraw or alter each line?
Information: I'm running an AMD Athlon64 X2 at 2.4GHz with 2GB RAM and a Radeon HD3850 videocard (512MB version, though that isn't really the issue I think) on Windows XP Home SP3, all updates applied except the ones like Windows Search etc.
All latest drivers have been installed and work fine. The machine is tweaked to run at just about 20 processes, and works very fast. Games (also newer ones) work perfectly, so I don't think it's a physical defect on the videocard in terms of artifacts). Code:

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am used to work with Photoshop. Unfortunately there is a bug in the paint bucket tool of Photoshop CS6. I made all updates up to 13.0.1 (x64).
Description: The paint bucket tool is very tricky to use now. If you want to fill a certain empty area of a picture with a simple color, it often does not do that. My clicks are totally correct, also the position ... but it does not take it. Sometimes I have to zoom in some 100% until my clicks are successful and the desired areas are filled with color.
