Photoshop :: How To Create Dotted Or Dash Rectangle
May 5, 2012
Is there any easy way in Photoshop CS3 or later Extended to create "dotted or Dask" rectangles? I am talking about the border of the rectangle to be "dotted or dash" line rather usual line? If there is any Action script (free) that will be fanatic.
What would be the easiest way to create a 3-dash line for a drawing?
I have a user with a need for a 3-dash line. Like a phantom line but with 3 dashes.
I know how to edit the pen-up, pen-down settings in a .lin file. But then what would be the best way to handle the new line when it is sent to the client? Would I need to create a custom line file and sent it with the .dwg files or could I edit the acad.lin file? Would the receiver run into problems with missing linetypes?
I just received an almost-new Wacom CTL-470 tablet from my father yesterday, so naturally I began fooling around with Photoshop line drawings and simple art.
The initial problem I discovered was that, oddly enough, the basic brush tools, when dragged, would not create a solid line. It would only create a dotted line, the spaces between dots varying with speed of the pen against the tablet.
If I dragged the pen slowly enough (very... very slowly), it would create a kind of shaky line, which was just dots very close together.
Naturally I thought it was the tablet's fault, but upon trying to use the mouse to do the same function, the problem persisted.
I use Photoshop CS and I didn't change any settings at all today.
I would also like to know how I can use my tablet to create a tapering effect with my pen pressure. The "pen pressure" setting in the Brushes menu seemed to have no effect.
Here's an example of the issue, both in large brushes and a smaller one in the background.
Running Autocad 2010 in trial mode and did something that created a vertical dotted line giving me an unusable area on the right side of my workspace. I've attached a pic, if I did it right.
The program gets the layer name from a text file and makes a dotted pair out it. When it iterates for the first time it puts the dotted pair into 0list. When it iterates the second time I want it to take the next line make a dotted pair and append 0list.
I keep getting error:bad list and I am assuming it is because it is trying to append 0list which only has one dotted pair in it and is technically not a list. I am not sure.
I have like three different versions of the same code I have tried. Any way to read a layer name from a file make a dotted pair and add the dotted pairs to a list of dotted pairs one at a time that would be amazing.
I get the reading and making a dotted pair part. I just can't get the dotted pairs to add to a master list.
I have a image with white background that I need to print and then cut with a scisor. The problem is that as the background is white I don't know where to cut, so I can I make a rectangle, like a border, with just a line, so when I print it, I can know where to cut it.
I just want a one point thick border rectangle with nothing filled. I tried using the rectangle marquee and stroke. Doesn't work. I tried the rectangle tool and rasterized, it disappeared.
how can i do dash dot line in photoshop in ANY angle ?
line like ". ... . ... . ..." - i can do that in horizontal or vertical by filling the selection but if i want it in some weird angle i just cant find a way. stroking a path doesnt seem to help. and also, i dont want to rotate the horizontal line that i can do cos its not so sharp then. i need it completely sharp. something like patterned line... is there such thing or work around on this ?
Does anybody know how to make a dash line in Photoshop (I have CS2)? I've already read something about creating a custom pattern and then stroke a path with it. But is there any simplier (and more accurate) way- for example some brush setting?
I've got my code to create a rectangle just fine, however i've noticed it doesn't take "Z" coordinates at all. I've got through the code and found my issue to be at these lines;
BlockTableRecord btr = (BlockTableRecord)tr.GetObject(db.CurrentSpaceId, OpenMode.ForWrite);using (Polyline pline = new Polyline()){ pline. Add VertexAt (0, new Point2d(LowerLeft.X, LowerLeft.Y), 0.0, 0.0, 0.0);pline.AddVertexAt(1, new Point2d(UpperRight.X, LowerLeft.Y), 0.0, 0.0, 0.0);pline. Add VertexAt(2, new Point2d(UpperRight.X, UpperRight.Y), 0.0, 0.0, 0.0); pline.AddVertexAt(3, new Point2d(LowerLeft.X, UpperRight.Y), 0.0, 0.0, 0.0); pline. Closed = true;btr.AppendEntity(pline);tr.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(pline, true); }
I need to use a Point3d in order to add "Z" but apparently the pline.AddVertexAt only allows for a Point2d.
I have to make a piece of geometry that joins a rectangle peice of duct to a circular peice. It doesn't need to be hollow...the inside will never be seen.
I've tried a few things but modeling isnt my strong suit.
This is probably quite simple but the answer eludes me. What I want to do is to create a borderless coloured rectangle (which I can do!), then drag text over it and cut the text out so it leaves the original rectangle with transparent text if you know what I mean.
I can easily do this in PS with the magic lasso but obviously I lose the quality when re-importing it back into AI.
Is there a way to draw a dash line that follows the curve in Photoshop (See image)? I know how to make a dotted line, but not a dash line, in photoshop.
I just got CorelDRAW X5 a few days ago. Until then, I had never drawn anything on a computer..Suppose I use the rectangle tool to create a box. How can I remove one of the edges ? That is, how do you remove a line-segment from a filled-object ?
i have created a block with n attribute.i insert the block with attribute filled with fields.I send the commande "Regen" for update field.
Now i want to add a rectangle in the block définition.I use GeometricExtents. it works fine only when then the rotation is 0 and UCS on UCSW.how i can create the line with the 4 points ? I want the line include all entity in my block def.I joined a zip with : 2.dwg is the XRef in 3.dwg
My bloc show info from xref (2.dwg).in the dwg. the bloc contain a line. The libe i manualy added when i create the blockreccord
I tried to make rectangle and get into create path.but i don;'t know hot to.First I made Rectangle
Dim Rectangle as SketchEntityEmulator Dim SplitPath as path Set Rectangle = SketchPlane.SketchLines.AddAsTowPointRectangle(Point1, Point2) then I tried Rectagle into Path PartDef.Features.CreatePath(Rectangle)
But There is a error...How i make Path from Rectangle? then I tried to SplitFaces.
I Got Face from HoleFeature. I Got Face like this. Dim oFace as Face Set oFace = HoleFeature.Faces.Item(1) and For Split I Add Face to FaceCollection like this Dim oFaceCollection as ObjecCollection Set oFaceCollection = ThisApplication.TransientObjects.CreateObjectCollection [code]....
I am having lots of difficulty with this. I'm trying to create a rectangle that is transparent with rounded corners but I need the rounded rectangle outlined. Now I know how to create a rounded rectangle what I am doing for that is the following;
creating an image, selecting add alpha chanel, then selecting rounded rectangle, invert then cut.
The problem is I need the rounded rectangle outlined. When I try to use the paintbrush with stroke it outlines the image but when I go to save it it saves the whole image including the cut corners.
In essence. I just want to make a rounded transparent rectangle. Then have it outlined. This would be for a web page.
Is there a way to create a fixed size selection rectangle that I can use whenever I want to take a selection from a larger image? Currently, I'm am doing this by trial and error and it's not fun.
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 4 layers (background, layer1, layer2, layer3-text). They fill all 300 x 600 pixels that comprise the .psd/future image. What I want to do is use a rounded rectangle to encompass all of the other layers, so that the surrounding pixels (around the rounded rectangle) are transparent.
I want all of my current layers to be the content of a rounded rectangle.
I want to create a rectangle with the correct dimensions for use in a HD video menu. It will be filled with graphic elements as well as text boxes. As referenced in the title it is for a 16x9 aspect ratio. I tried creating a rectangle 16"x9" but that looked too big.
I don't know if it is the update or not but every time I fill a rectangle with noise and create a bitmap copy and try to erase the white with Medhi eraser classic XP&GD and XDPX now stops working. I have tried this over and over with the same result, or should I say lack of a result? All I am trying to do is make a star field. This is the same basic method I used before to create animated snow..
