View 7 Replies View RelatedI was using the custom shape tool (say I want to make a star) and in my other version of PS (7), it would automatically create a new shape layer, linked where you could click and change the color, etc.
When I try it in CS2 it draws the shape on the background directly. Now I am able to create a new layer, draw the shape and then fill it with a color to get the same result - but it was much easier the other way. I'm assuming it's just a setting (much like the changed linked layers setting)
I want to create a Custom Shape tool of the image above. The image must be in Black.

The brush tool shape changes when zooming into an image. Instead of the normal circle to indicate the area that will be affected by the brush, it turns into a large curved X, or a large half moon. Sometimes there are two, three or four horizontal ovals (instead of one circle) going across my image. When I continue to zoom in further, it returns to a circle. Caps Lock and is off. I discovered that when this happens, if I press the CTRL key, it returns to a circle

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am playing with the custom shapes. If for example I use a paw print custom shape is there a way to change the direction of it on the page. It seems if I want to have maybe 20 paw prints on graphic they will all be facing the same way. Is there a way to move them individually so they don't look all the same? I hope that makes sense.
How can I create the custom header shape:
I have not ventured much into the pen tool and I am totally illiterate when it comes to this tool.
My question is about gradients and anti-aliasing. I'm using PS 7.0 and what I want to do is use the custom shape tool, and fill the shape with a gradient. Not difficult, but here's where I get caught. After the shape is filled, I'd like the edges to remain anti-aliased.
For example, if I use the custom shape tool to create a hand print with anti-aliased edges, then use the magic want to select it. Next I grab my fore and back colors, choose a linear gradient and drag it in the appropriate direction. The selected shape is filled the way I want, but when I deselect, the edges have become pixelated. Is there a way to avoid this and keep them smooth? I tried using the blur tool and blur filter, but they don't quite have the same look.

I have a photograph and a bubble custom shape.
How can I get it so that the photograph wraps into the custom shape and also looks like a bubble? So really, it becomes the background of the custom shape.
