Photoshop :: How To Add Stoke Path Using Pen Tool On CS6 (mac)

Nov 24, 2012

I'm a beginner at photoshop and I'm only 14 years old. I need to know this for my GCSE project.

I'm trying to create something similar to this:

Using pen tool and stroke path, but when i use the pen tool I'm not sure how to add the stroke path like that.

I've used CS4 previously at school and when you right clicked on the path it came up with this:

I haven't a clue how to get that up on CS6 (on mac) and when you right click it, it just seems to continue adding the path.

Photoshop :: Stoke Path Non-function

Jun 23, 2008

Using CS3 on a new system, but still on Windows XP. I want to stroke a path. I make a path with the pen tool, make sure the path is selected and when I try to use the "stroke with brush" thingie in the path palette, as I move my cursor over the stroke with brush icon a little no-go crossbar thingie appears there telling me it can't be done.
Read a few forum messages on stroke with brush problems - this lead me to check that "spacing " was selected in the brush palette for the brush I am using and it was. Pretty new to CS3.

Illustrator :: CS6 Path Not Aligned To Stoke Or Fill

Jan 9, 2013

I've been having a problem in illustrator for the last couple of days that I haven't had before. It doesn't just happen with this graphic, it has happened with other objects, even happened with a circle yesterday. It doesn't happen to all objects on the artboard though, just particular ones.
 
I've drawn these shapes with the pen tool, but the stoke and fill aren't aligned aligned with the path that I've drawn. It's causing issues when I resize (see image below) and also when I align. It aligns the path correctly but because that image doesn't match the path it looks wrong.

Illustrator :: Created Text On Curved Path Using Pen Tool And Type On Path Tool

Feb 13, 2014

I created text on a curved path using the pen tool and the the type on a path tool. However, there are portions of the text that I want to taper. For example, my text begins horizontally, continues to the right, and gradually curves downward. As the text curves downward I would like it to taper smoothly into a narrower and narrower text.

Photoshop :: Pen Paths (brush Stoke) Filled With Color Only On Selection

May 21, 2013

This is what I'm trying to make...

The black lines would be the pen paths (curved shapes) with a brush stroke, but then I would like to select an area of all those pen paths lines (like you for example do when using marquee tool) (in the example green color) and fill the path lines with for example green only on that selected area and the rest stays black in this case and only the lines would be filled, so not the white space between. I kind of did it in Illustrator using scissor tool, but cutting all the paths takes a lot of time and precision so I thought there might be a better, easier, more precise way to do this in photoshop. how to accomplish something like that?

Photoshop :: Path/Pen Tool

Sep 15, 2005

I've had a problem with the pen tool for a while now...
On the odd occasion when I am creating a new path, it inverts itself, i.e. when I select it I get the opposite of what I have masked, (also the Path icon background will switch from grey to white indicating the path has reversed).

I've had this problem in version 7/CS1 and CS2, my normal fix is to ditch the prefs and I get the tool back the way it should be but this is proving a pain.

I thought it could be a keyboard shortcut that I was hitting by mistake but I can't seem to find any reference to a short cut for this. (Searched online and Ninness book Power Shortcuts.)

Photoshop :: Pen Tool / Path

Oct 12, 2004

I have been reading about the Pen Tool and according to what I am reading (off various websites) here is what I am supposed to do...

1. Open a new workspace

2. Click the Pen Tool

3. Make a path using 4 or so anchor points

4. Select the Brush tool

5. Click on the Paths tab (on the right where the layers are)

6. Double-click on the path to save it.

7. Then right-click on the path and choose STROKE PATH.

The only problem is that my STROKE PATH is DISABLED.

Maya :: Sliding Stoke Or Brush Parameters In Attribute Editor

Dec 10, 2012

My Stroke Refresh is set to off.

The panit effects viewport flickers several times per second while sliding the stoke or brush parameters in the attribute editor. It blink once when holding down the Alt button or press the "redraw panit effects view" button in the view port. It seems like it's keeping redrawing for every change related to the parameters, and this problem is just in the panit effects mode.

I'm a newbie to panit effects,

Following is the flickering screen shot.

Illustrator :: Remove Gray Lines (not Stoke) When Changing Size

Oct 23, 2013

Im brand spanking new to Illistrator, andfor my first project decided to re-make my logo for my small minecraft server, since my origional was such poor quality.how to make what I wanted, the problem im having is when I change the size of my grouped image it creates grey lines between the rectangle shapes, There is no gaps, if you zoom in as far as you can they disappear.I exported the image as PNG and they still percist, attatched (Top right finished origional size I made it)

I found out I could "rasterize" my selected content like in video editing "render", I had to do this to "finish" a vector image, any more information on a better workflow.

Photoshop :: Smooth Path Tool

Feb 27, 2013

In the past I have traced the outline of an image using the pen tool by placing as many points along the contour or outline as possible. Once I closed the path the appearance was not perfectly smooth.

I remember using a tool after that to smooth the path that would eliminate any uneven or jagged edges and make the curves really smooth. How to do this in CS6?

Photoshop :: Pen Tool Path Color

Mar 21, 2012

Although I think the pen tool could be an excellent way of making selections, I find that in many situations the path color hardly shows against a midtone or gray area I want to select.

Furthermore I find the tangent line makes things worse since it's the same color as the path (gray) and can easily obscure the selection I attempt to make.

Is it really not possible to change the path color when using the pen tool?

Photoshop :: Stitching Using Path Tool

Sep 28, 2004

when I create stiching look, such as this ---------, I've created a line and ereased the middle part.

But is there any way I can create a path and somehow manupilate the pen/pencil to create the stitch?

I already know the "spacing" function on the brushes palette. This doesent really create "-". It's more of ".".

Photoshop :: The Path-tool Keeps Filling

Jul 13, 2005

It's probably very easy, but I still can't figure it out. When I use the path-tool (Photoshop CS2), I keep getting a filled spline. But I'd rather just have an empty one instead, maybe even with a different brush? Is this possible without switching to Illustrator?

Photoshop :: Type Tool - Text On A Path

Mar 6, 2012

I created a path with the type tool, selected the path in the Paths panel, I started typing on the path and the type followed the path, though I chose edit > free transform path and scaled it, though the text did not move with the new path and now it is no longer on the path?

1. Why did the text not stay on the path as I transformed it?
2. How do you hide the path so you do not have to see it? I want it there only as a guide for my text to flow across.

Photoshop :: Pen Tool Can Only Fill In One Path At A Time

May 14, 2013

I've recently upgraded to Photoshop CS5.1 and I've encountered that the pen tool will only let me fill in one path at a time. Older versions of Photoshop would fill in all the paths at the same time so I don't see why the pen tool would be capable of doing that in a newer version.

Photoshop :: CS6 Direct Selection Tool Without Altering Path

Jun 12, 2012

Prior to Photoshop CS6, a curve on a path could be moved using the Direct Selection Tool without altering the path beyond the two enclosing points. If you manipulated the curve, only the inside handles of the two points (that create the curve) would change - and only in length - as shown below:

Unfortunately, in Photoshop CS6, if you manipulate the path curve with the Direct Selection Tool, the handles both sides of the points move freely - affecting the path beyond those points:

- is there a way to revert to the prior behaviour? The Photoshop CS6 behaviour may seem more intuitive (or something), but it's less precise and alter parts of the path that are fine already.

Photoshop :: CS6 Pen Tool - Clicking And Dragging On Existing Path Should Not Change

May 2, 2012

CS6 Pen tool, clicking and dragging on an existing path should not change the angle on the adjacent radius handles. It should only dynamically adjust the length of the existing radius handles, based on which direction you drag. It should only affect that one segment and not affect the bordering angles. I've been pathing with Adobe products for 25 years and this should not change now. I want to be able to fine tune ONE line segment without affecting its neighboring segments. The "new" behavior should only occur with a modifier. If the Mothership deems this is the only way to do this moving forward, at LEAST give your long-standing customers a modifier, such as the shift key to enable us to keep working as we have been for decades.
