Photoshop :: Duplicate / Deform Object Along A Path
Dec 4, 2011
Is there any way in photoshop or with a 3rd party plug-in to duplicate an object on a layer along a path so that it conforms to the orientation and possibly deforms accordingly? I'm working on a fish scale texture that has scales of varying size that flow in different directions depending on the location on the body. As of right now I've crudely grid warped a tiling fish scale matte I made to define how I want the scales to flow. I'm using this as a guide as I individually place each scale.

I am trying to use a spline to deform hairs on a object.
I have 1 editable spline, with multiple splines attached to it(1 spline which has been rotated), but when I use it to comb the hairs, it will only take 1 or 2 of the splines, so it all goes in 1 direction, rather then all outwards from the center, like the splines are.
The splines are all the same, all in one shape, and all have the first vertex in the center.
I have tried re-creating the splines, but it comes out the same.

The MEIS document for 3ds max URL...., in the Compositing module talks about using the paint tool.. "demonstrate basic paint operations using the paint tool"
the object paint or object deform paint utilities? You cant actually "paint" 3D models using 3ds max can you? the reference they say to look up is "paint" and when I look this up in 3ds max help, the object paint and deform paint tools are all i can find.. So are these compositing tools?

I have this minecraft rig which I downloaded from Shrogg2. I have added a few of my own features but wanted to add things to the facial rig. How the facial rig has been made but I have this plane which has stubble on it. I want it to be fixed in one location but follow the deformation of the jaw when it moves. The controller which is used to move the jaw down is already there, I just need to get it to deform this plane.

PS:Cs6So, I have done this ...
1. Radial Gradient on the BG layer > Duplicated the layer then Transformed it down for a "Floor" effect
2. Added a Mask then painted to fade the duplicated layer into the BG layer
3. Opened the Paths panel > Clicked the New Path icon > Pen tool (set to shape as I assumed it should be because I tried it set to Path and down the line it didn't pan out) I drew the basic shape for my project (which is to be a camera)
4. Copied a Leather Texture from a different document and Pasted it on to the Same Layer (ie: I didn't create a NL)
5. Added an Adjustment layer > set the HSL's
6. Copied the basic (camera) path and placed it on top of the leather texture (layer)
7. Selected the Texture and the Adjustment layers > Ctrl+G > Layer > Vector Mask > Current Path
Below is where I am stuck
8. I am suppose to Duplicate the Path of the Camera ... but ... when I drag the Path down to the Create New Path Icon ... or attempt to Duplicate the Path by Any means and then perform the next step which is:
9. go to Layer > New Fill Layer > Solid Color ... either the color will fill just the shape of the camera or it fills the entire layerwhen the camera does fill with a color I cannot get the next step to work which is:
10. Add a Rectangle Shape and Modify its shape > set the Rectangle to Subtract ... Well, the Rectangle is NOT Subtracting
I know this because the leather is not showing through the color So, all in all I suppose I am asking how I should Best go about DUPLICATING a PATH ... ??? I mean, do I ... need to copy the path into an other component? An other layer? Should I be using NL where I am not using NL's?

So, I use many of the same brushes. If I copy a path from a file that uses a certian brush to another file that uses the same brush, I get a duplicate of the brush in the brush panel.
Can I stop this from happening?

If I duplicate a Vector Smart Object and "Edit Contents", the changes show up in both layers.
How can I create a unique duplicate of a Vector Smart Object so if I "Edit Contents" of one layer, it won't affect the other?
CS6 here.

Once you've used a path to put type on, how do you get the path back? Everything I do to recover the path deletes it.

Windows XP/Sp3 - Gimp 2.6.10 - Gap 2.6
I readily admit that I have another thread open where I mention this issue. However, that thread mainly addresses another issue. The problem that I address, here, is holding up progress on the other and I believe it to be unique enough to warrant an independent thread.Here's what is going on:
-I am attempting to have text travel along a path.
-I am using the proper procedure to save the background frame as _000001. and duplicating way more frames than I am using path points.
-I am using the proper procedure to create my text letters in a separate source image.xcf file.
-My RGB settings match up.
-I am activating the background layer in _00001.
-I am using the proper move path procedures and operator settings.
-My From and To frame assignments are less than the number of frames.
-Whenever I Refresh, or OK, the move path function, I get a Move Path Message stating the selected path points are different than the number of frames and I either need to adjust the number of path points I am using, or change the number of frames.
I have spent hours researching this. The only two issues I see mentioned are to make sure that the RGB's match up and that I am using the background layer of the _00001 file.I see that there was a patch for this condition on early versions of Gimp/Gap. I wonder if it could be reoccurring.

I would like to know what are all the duplicate options we have in Xara 6 since I don't see any duplicate windows?
1. I can right click and drag (But not exact when I want to leave margins between several objects.)
2.Ctrl + k (makes a duplicate object over its self.)
3.Ctrl + alt + d (Makes a copy of the object in a diagonal direction.)
...what I need is something like illustrator were I can copy an obect once and the next copy object I copy using ctrl d is copied in the same direction and spacing as the previous one. (I hope I'm being clear.) How do I do this in Xara? I've been using this software since a few days ago and I already feel very comfortable using it.

Is there a fundamental difference between a clone of an object and it's duplicate?
Like does one maintain some more attributes than the other, if it is the same why then two different names for the same thing?
One more question,
I see my name and in blue besides it (no PMs) what does that mean?

I am currently building a stadium. Created one chair that I want to duplicate 20'000 times, however Maya is unable to cope with this (even Duplicating Special by 200 is too big for it).What would be the recommended way for these Massive Duplicate Specials ?

I'm just starting a new project and I've become a little stuck. What I'd like to do with Photoshop is to bend this (or another more suitable image) of a running track to fit:
a) the extrusion of the 3D type below or;
b) the road of the mountain pass
How would I go about doing this; is it something to do with creating paths and then warping it onto the path? I don't know quite where to start.

1. find the attached “Rays on Oval.png” file. (Tried attaching .cdr file but the File Size is 400KB.)
2. I would like to Repeat / Duplicate that Black Color on Outer Path of Oval Shape. (Like shown in the Yellow versus Black. The Yellow is a Circle and the Black is from Star Tool)
3. I think the Best Bet would be to Link the Rays to the Outer Path of Oval Shape.
4. I need the Rays and Oval as 2 Different Objects so that I could Change the Color Scheme.

I have a figure as below:
You can see that the red circles intersect the blue one twice each. One of these intersects (the lower one) should be below the blue circle while the other should be above the blue circle. How can I make this happen? Can I use the shape builder tool somehow?

I would really like to know if there is any way I can manage to to transform both a layer object and a path at the same time....or if there is any workaround to achieve this.
In a nutshell, say for example I spend a VERY long time creating an intricate path around a very detailed object, and then at the very end notice just how crooked and out of perspective it is, and would like to straighten it.
Of course I could transform and correct the object, and then carefully transform the path - but it just won't be exact, and I will have to spend a long time adjusting the path and making SURE it is perfect.
Isn't there any way I could get to transform them together?
Usually of course I do all the correction to straighten and correct perspective beforehand, but in some instances after I am done creating the path I then notice that the image could have used further adjustments.

HOW to activate the little green dots?
I am trying to bend the blades (fans) to form a curve blade. However, I've failed again and again - unable to deform it.
For more information, please take a look at my dummy image and an image from the web (which I found). I am using Autodesk 2010. Or how to deform the blades from another version.

I have a diamond model I built (editable poly) and it is sitting on a pillow I made (garment maker, cloth- also editable poly) Ok so there has got to be an easy way to make the diamond sink into the pillow. I have been playing around with conform space modifier for hours now and I can make basic shapes change but it will not effect my ed polies and also I dont know if this is working the way I imagined anyway.

I have a small problem trying a wave to deform my objects properly. I have to make a "repulsion objects" project, i use several duplicate cubes and i apply to them a wave deformer. But i would like that the deformer could move just the entire objects or polygons , not the points because i want the upper face plane and the wave deform the points like i was making a jitter.
I have tested also the displacement direction of the wave with no results. Is there an easy way to make it?

I have to animate a long tentacle like object eminating from something , wrapping around another object and pulling it backwards. I have been looking at splineIK,pflow and some other approaches but they only cover part of the animation I need.
I am playing with PFlow and I can get something to spawn along a spline path to wrap around the object but not sure how to simulate the thing retracting and pulling the object with it.
I know there must be a better way to do this.

It's new to me the loft compound object, and I found it a little cumbersome.Provided the shape objects have the same amount of vertices, the loft should do its business, is it?
