Illustrator :: Maintaining Stroke Weight When Changing Path To Brush Stroke?

Sep 12, 2013

Is there a way or an option I am missing to convert my regular paths to a path stroked with a brush profile,while maintining the proper stroke width?
 
For instance, I have a regular line with a stroke of 5 and then add a brush profile, which then converts the original stroke to whatever the brush was made at.

Photoshop :: Problems Trying To Stroke A Gradient Bar.

Aug 19, 2004

I am following along a tut where you make a selection (navbar) with the rectangular marquee tool. Create a new layer and apply a gradient to the selection. Then you choose blending options and apply a stroke to the selection. However when I try to apply the stroke I have problems. Instead of just applying the stroke to the outside edge of the navbar it actually overlays the entire navbar and changes the colour of it. I have used the stroke before and never had this problem so Im not sure what I could be doing wrong. Im following the tut as it is written too.

Photoshop :: Fading A Layer Mask To Image -- Gradient Stroke?

Oct 3, 2007

I've been using Photoshop intensely this year for school assignments, and I'm learning to get around very well. The issue I'm currently having is that it want to make a layer mask that fades from the mask to the image behind, from color to transparent to create a smooth transition.

I've attached a sample image of what I'm trying to do. Just note, I used a very round-about method to get this image, but I want to achieve the same effect with a vector mask.

Photoshop :: Stroke Path

Mar 27, 2004

I am having problems creating a stroke path in Photoshop CS. I will create a new path, and then apply a stroke path with brush tool setting. For some reason it only is stroking each anchor point and now along the line (path).

So basically I have a basic wave path. It has 3 anchor points, and the stroke path is only making a circle around each anchor point rather than stroking along the path. It is real frustrating because I tried all different settings on the pen tool. Are there specific settings I should have set when creating my path? What am I doing wrong?

Photoshop :: CS6 / Stroke Path Is Not Working?

Mar 28, 2013

I am using Photoshop CS6. I am not in quickmask, I am using the essentials pallete I am creating a path not a shape, and I have a new blank layer selected. When I right click on my path, stroke path is available but it just won't do anything. I have been able to get it to work by going to my paths palette and selecting stroke path from there but that is a lot more time consuming.

Photoshop :: Stroke A Vector Path

Sep 29, 2008

I've created a rectangle and a shape with the bezier tool. I've tried to make the stroke thicker but can't. I've tried selecting the path/mask several ways and chosen different tools in the toolbox but no matter what I do, the Stroke option in the menu is greyed out.

is there a way to do this?

either edit the stroke afterwards - or even specify the width before drawing a path?

Photoshop :: Stroke Path With Brush...

Oct 17, 2007

I created a brush and I have created a path. What I want to happen is for the brush to follow the path and keep the angle of the path. What I mean is the brush should stay perpendicular to the path. So that on angles...the brush takes that angle. Does that make sense? Let me explain exactly what I have done. I created a brush that is just a rectangle that is about 1px wide and about 7px tall. I have created a path around some text. I want the brush to follow the path around so that it looks like stitching. But what is happening is on the vertical sides..the brush is staying vertical.

Photoshop :: Stroke Path Disabled

Oct 28, 2008

I'm trying to turn a photo into a Line Art drawing.

I've been following instructions and it's all been working until I try to make a stroke path and it's disabled. I've read through these forums and have done everything suggested (ie. made sure the pen tool is set to paths in option bar, made sure the pen icon is chosen when I right click to 'stroke path', ...)

Here's what I did...

1. Set the pen tool to create new work paths

2. Used pen to outline the face in the photo. Finished the shape so the path joins up.

3. Right click to choose stroke paths

I'm using PS CS3 Version 10. Can anyone tell me why I can't access stroke path when I right click?

Illustrator :: Is It Possible To Stroke Path Like In Photoshop?

Nov 6, 2012

I mostly use photoshop for lineart on some pictures I do but the biggest problem is that the lines are not really smooth. I want to Use Illustrator just to ink the pen tool paths and then return it to photoshop to color. This is a recently finished picture I did using the Pen tool traced on top of a sketch I scanned. I want to know if there is any way I could do something similar to "Stroke path" in Illustrator so that I could get this picture done with crisper lines and if not.

Illustrator :: CC Why Cannot Add Gradient To Brush Stroke

Feb 15, 2014

Why I can’t add a gradient to a brush stroke. As soon as I select the drawn brush stroke and I try playing around with the gradient, the whole stroke goes black…This is driving me nuts. And the weird thing the gradient can be applied only to the basic brush type…not the one that I need unfortunately. I’m not sure why that is…I can only add colour to the brush stroke but no gradient sadly. Is there something I’m doing wrong or a setting which prevents this from happening?
