View 2 Replies View RelatedTrying CS6 for the first time and noticed that I'm having trouble aligning 2 anchor points in a vector shape. For some reason, no matter how much I zoom in, the anchor "snaps" where I don't want it to, which wouldn't be so bad if the anchor I'm trying to align with it snapped at the same place, but it doesn't.
I tried checking/unchecking "align edges" and "constrain path dragging", but neither has any effect on the problem.
I have just found out about layer masks wow they are powerful before this I was cutting people from one picture and pasting them into another
What I am trying to do is have me in the same picture twice as 2 different people I know you do this using a layer mask and then using the brushes as I said above
But when I open both images and drag one onto the other how do I line them up exactly the same so when I do use the brush tool and brush away both images match up exactly the same underneath
I am locking the camera down with a tripod and its kept in the same position for both shots but what i have noticed is if you do not line both images up exactly the same you have like a ghost effect if you know what i mean
I was wondering when I align a layer to another layer, if there was a way to do it so that only one layer moves. I.e. in visio when you select your first object, that becomes the Master, and all other objects you click after this will all sync to the master, rather than what seems to happen to me in PS, i.e. both layers are moved a little. I'd like to be able to allow the first layer i click on to be static, and any other layres align to it only. can this be done?
View 2 Replies View RelatedThere is a checkbox called "Attempt to Automatically Align Source Images" in File/Automate/Merge to HDR Pro..It seems to me that it does nothing. Even when I shoot with tripod and the unaligment of source images is very small, the end result is also off.
When and how should this automatic aligment work? I have Photoshop CS5.
I been given a project to align and merge three photo's to make one panorama. And there will be about 300 panorama's. So thats 3000 photos i have to align and merge. The problems I'm having it that the photographer is using an analogue camera outdoors. And i have been manually scanning them
I have tried automated merge and they don't merge. The 3 photos that make the panorama are all different angles. This isn't because of the scanning. Its the photo's i been given.
So i went with a different way of doing it. That is the first photo to make up the panorama, I tried to align all the first photo's in one go with Photomerge and save them as sperate layers. And they won't align because each photo has a different angle.
What I'm asking is a few hints. Is there addon's or something i can use to help me merge them. Or i can align every single first photo and link them, align every single second photo and link them, and align every single third photo and link them. Then all i have to do when I have done that is only use the first layer of each group to make the merge and every other photo will do the same.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having trouble aligning two layers that have layer masks on them. At the moment, the Align Left Edge tool is aligning the layers based off the entire contents of the layer, and not the mask, resulting in the layers not appearing aligned at all. Is there something I can do to tell the Align tool to take the masks into account?

I am creating a rotating animated gif in PS. Now I have about 37 layers, where I increment the angle of each layer with 10 degress relative to the previous one. But even when aligning all my layers with the aligning tools the layers still not align...How can I align them perfectly?

However, it keeps trying to create a vertical panoramic out of horizontally oriented images and then reports an error about being "unable to align" the images. I'm using CS6 extended 64 bit with Windows 7. I've tried auto, reposition, perspective, and the other settings separately all with no luck.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIf you have raster (or vector) item on seperate layers, I know I can link all the layers together, but when I select the MOVE tool and press the button that centers to the middle of the canvas, it moves every item to the center of the canvas (as it should) But these items, when viewed "together" make up an element that I'd like to be considered "grouped" so the "collectively" then are centered to the canvas as one item. Is this possible?
View 6 Replies View RelatedIn Photoshop CS6, when you have a shape layer with a layer mask, and the two are not linked together, and the layer mask is selected, you should be able to scale the layer mask independently of the shape. What actually happens is the shape gets scaled and the layer mask stays untouched. In fact, even if you option-click on the layer mask to show the mask by itself, and then try to scale it, you still end up scaling the shape instead of the mask. Even if you go as far as to make a pixel selection of the layer mask and attempt to scale the pixels, the shape still gets scaled and the layer mask still stays put! Unbelievable!
This works correctly in CS4, but not in CS6 (don't know about CS5).
I want to make a vector shape from a path. Is there a way to bypass having to define a new custom shape? I just want to quickly add the vector shape to a new layer, but I don't need it defined as it'll just be used once.

any way to delete more than a single shape at a time from a shape collection file, other like step by step with the option key? I have one collection with about 400 shapes and would like to save it to some "groups", like people, arrows, devices..
View 1 Replies View RelatedSince the release of Photoshop CC the "Live Shape Properties" has basically chosen when it does and does not want to show up.... sometimes I even create a new shape to replace the old one and it STILL does not show the live shape properties... how hard is it to make sure the options are available at all times? I opt for a discount since this is a half working application and the features you highlighted barely function...
View 1 Replies View Relatedencouterd some remarks about the alignment and outlining of your layers in your group.. I get the impression that you should group the relevant layers, so that its easier to align them or clip them of outline them or whatever.. Which would be great, because Im always having difficulties with shape layers that go outside their bounds.. and adding multiple clipping masks seem to be a lot of work..

I'm really wanting to utilize CS5's powerful 3D capabilites, but am at a loss on how to properly align 3d items in perspective to the filter Vanishing Point's planes.
I'm building a digitial room setting, and want to place a simply painting (extrusion created with Repousse, texture layer merged down onto 3D layer) on the wall in proper perspective, with an extruded canvas like so:
This took plenty of time to accomplish. Nudging, moving, stretching, etc.. You can see my gridlines of course there created by the Vanishing Point filter. Is there an easier or quicker way to match up 3d objects within PS to these perspective planes other than doing it visually this way?
Is it possible to fill a shape with a gradient fill so it goes up to all edges and gradually get darker/lighter inwards? For example, If I have a star shape, can I have a gradient fill in the shape of a 'star'?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm making a model of a building over a AutoCAD plan and I’m having problems with snapping and aligning. After I import polylines from AutoCAD, the accuracy becomes a problem, I can’t align or snap anything accurately (as seen on the attached picture). It keeps snapping in midd-air and not in the endpoint/midpoint, align doesn’t work either (the boxes in the picture are all aligned, x-max and y-min). I should mention that the same (similar) problem accrues in AutoCAD and after purging and repairing the dwg and starting over in max, it got better, but is still there.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI do not know if this is something weird with Creative Cloud, but I use Illustrator A LOT to do art. Recently, I noticed that if I take a complex shape with angles and curves that I make with the pen tool, and I Ctrl+C, and Ctrl+F it will, like normal, stack the items directly on top of one another, or I can edit copy, and edit paste in place/ in front, etc. So, I have two of the same shape exactly on top of one another. For my example we change the bottom shape to a different color to make it show up when we scale it, and go up and transform the bottom shape bigger, by clicking transform, scale- lets say to 110%. My problem is now the items seem to be touching and overlapping in places on the edge. They seem to no longer have the same center spot aligned with one another, and I never moved either shape. i just scaled one. I just noticed this the other day, and like I said, I make pattern art in illustrator all the time. It doesn't happen if you do this with a circle or a square or a star, just strange shapes you create with the pen tool with lots of points.
