All I want to do is put a couple of arrows in an illustration! I select custom shapes, then arrows, then I mouse-drag out the arrow, and, of course, they disappear when saved. So...now realizing that this is a path, I duplicate my first layer and place the arrows on the new layer. then I flatten. Still, arrows disappear.
View 1 RepliesI took a screenshot of an image I'm trying to replicate in Photoshop.
It's a simple right facing, filled arrow, encampassed in a circle. There's a perfect drop shadow/gradient effect going on to add a 3d effect. I'd like that on a transparent background if possible.
In 3dsmax I want to:
(1)Open a .txt file containing some data:
E.g.
0,0,10,90,45
0,0,20,180,45
0,0,30,270,45
(2)Create arrow object at the XYZ coordinates pointing in the direction of the Heading Pitch values.
I think we keep on without an annotation symbol to label the x,y and/or Z of a point ? Have I to develop our symbol ? I'm going to create my own symbol. Using attributes & dynamic behaviours I can do it.
how to get my arrow rotates (I move the box and I have - the arrow aligned with line1 and line 2 horizontal).I don't want to use parametrics, because I want to have a symbol compatible with versions prior to 2010.
I'm an absolute beginner, and cannot find a simple pointer in GIMP. By simple pointer I mean an arrow to select an object, similar to the pointer in Inkscape. What am I missing?

When I create a normal square, it is filled with white as standard. I simply want to make it transparent, and have a nice black border!
I'm looking to create a linetype where I can incorporate a specific arrow shape. The best way of going about this? The application is to show on general layout plans the escape route with a polyline with the incorporate arrow.
Until now I have been drawing a standard PL then adding the arrows manually .
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.
View 5 Replies View RelatedSay I paste a raster image into illustrator. It's a square (or a rectangle).
Is there an easy way to turn this image into a shape object so I can apply effects like rounded corner to it?
I'm not really looking to trace the image, just turn it into a square shape.
I wanted to create simple shape for rectangle such that its dimensions are selected from the block table. For that purpose, I have constructed the required constrains (geometric and dimensions) and then a “block table” (attached).
As I tested the behavior to have 1X2 rectangle (attached), I got a rotated one (attached)!-
I have adobe CS5 and when I opened my software today, I discovered my swatches were gone from my tool bar. They are not entirely gone because I can get to them from my swatch libraries, however, I cannot drag and drop these swatches into my toolbar in order to click on them. I am trying to use the pen tool to draw a simple shape and the only swatches that come up is the none option (the white box with the red line going through it) and the registration, which I admitadly don't know much about.
I am using a Mac. I cannot figure out how to draw my shapes without a fill and using a black outline.
I need to know how to create a simple shape with dims /code that centers on the page.
Example:
4x6 retangle /centered.
I want a reference to understand how to create objects if that makes sense. Im doing codes i dont quite understand, and i want something simple to play with. Like a rule of thumb to memorize.
I have been watching the recordings, but the codes seem so long.
Now with PSP it was very easy to take a screen shot and highlight a button or area on the image by drawing a hollow circle or oval and set the border color and width.
I am struggling to find the best way to achieve this in Photoshop?
how do you make a simple border around text? I checked out the tutorial in the Teamphotoshop site, however I couldn't find "Effects" under "Layer". I have Photoshop 6 (soon gonna be getting Photoshop CS), is that the problem?
I tried to just highlight the text, expand it (or make a border, either one), and use the paintbucket tool to fill it the expanded/border area. However, it leaves off a slightly gritty or faded border.
I also tried by going into the layers, right click on text layer>blending properties>outer glow. But it still leaves a faded border.
I have two layers on the bottom I have text, and on the top I have a shape.
How do I make the shape transparent so the shape may be filled with the background color?
I'm trying to use the line tool to drag out an ordinary line, but every time I do, an arrow shape appears. I've tried looking for other shapes, hoping "line" would be one of them, but I couldn't find anything. I've looked at the help file, searched online, but I didn't find anything. All I want to do is drag out a regular line with the line tool, but all it gives me is an arrow. Does anybody know what option I should look at to change the arrow into a line?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently bought a Bamboo Pen tablet to use with GIMP and have been installing under Windows (XP).
The tablet installs fine, is recognised by GIMP and I can draw with the stylus. Excellent. The only problem is that the cursor/arrow is missing which means that I can draw things but I only know where the stylus is when I start to write/draw.
I am hoping that this is a simple settings issue but how to make the cursor/arrow visible?
There is no right pointing arrow beside keywords beginning with u and on to z. How do I make the right pointing arrow reappear?

I am wondering how I can make a simple collage of three or four photo's. Something like a progression of movement, or a film strip kind of look. I am able to do this in Picasa but I am not happy with the resolution of the final product. I assume it is to do with layers. Here is what I would like to be able to do [URL] ..........
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have to do something in school where I have to make simple objects like laptops, speakers etc. These objects must be kept really simple, so no high detail or anything and they can't have a black outline around them.
What I wanted to know is, which tool can I create these simple objects with? They have to look smooth, they must have round edges and there cannot be an outline around them.
I have one picture of my office building and one picture of an airplane . I want to make the airplane fly and crash into the building and explode. If it's possible to make it in GIMP, how can i do it?
More importantly - how is this technique called? jpg animation? I'm new to graphic editing and don't even know how to name certain things or techniques, so i need some keywords for further research.
I'm also have adobe premiere elements, would this application be useful in creating such projects from pure jpg images?
I am trying to make a hatch pattern in Illustrator CS6 with the pattern tool so I can apply a clean, single lined hatch to various shapes (some small some big - but the hatch needs to remain at the same seamless scale). I understand that there is a Basic Graphics_Lines Pattern under the Swatches Palette, but I don't understand how to edit it with the Pattern Options dialogue box.
I must be missing something, because I wouldn't think making a single line at 45° repeat at the same spacing for a shape fill would be that difficult. I shouldn't have to make a line with the pan tool at a stroke of 1000 with a 0.1-3 dash and make a clipping mask should I?
Basically I don't know how to make a pattern's lines match up when I do the 5x5 or 3x3. I tried doing 1x1 and the result is that of the image with the red stroke...still not aligning. Do I need to get mathematical with the size of the line I'm drawing and its stroke to allow H and V Spacing to work?

We have 60 of those intersections (crossroads) , if we would start making them all with intersection wizzard it would take a lot of time... , maybe there is simpler way to make such an easy crossings ? ( all of those crossroads are same type same geometry, the only difference is location)
