I found this balloon in my CD collection and want to use it for future birthday cards, putting it on to another image.
how I go about changing the light on it, or use Blending perhaps? When I tried blending in PS, all I got was a huge black/white blending - I have only used Blending a few times, but in Illustrator, so I need step by step instructions.
I also would like to put a good looking text inside the balloon, warped. I may also want to change the color of the string,
I would like to make use of " find in feature tree" feature, but in DWG mode; Right clicking instead in BOM on part # and showing (highlighting) the balloon in the DWG so you know where it is that you put your balloon.
I am putting balloons on an assembly drawing, but the circle is not appearing. The arrow, leader and number are there, but no circle. What could be wrong?
I am using Paint Shop Pro X - the last decent version that Corel made.
I haven't done anything artistic in Paint Shop Pro in a couple of years.
I am trying to put text in a balloon, on a photograph, to show what someone is saying.
Every single thing I try arranges the text along the outside of the balloon.
All three of my books on Paint Shop Pro X and Paint Shop Pro 9 (which is very similar), the help files, and everything I can find online, specifically discuss only how to put text along the outside of a shape, or along a curved line -even though the discussion topic and associated photos often clearly show cartoon text inside balloons in the normal manner.
One discussion does show specifically how to do it; unfortunately they are written for Paint Shop Pro 5 or something, and I don't get any such dialogue box to open when I click on either A thingy on either tool bar.
Specifically how DO I put text inside a balloon in the normal manner? By normal manner, I mean, like in this post.
The issue is with another users computer with AutoCAD 2008LT, When placing a leader balloon; the font seems to appear larger then the block looks like its rescaling, i explode the block and the font goes to proper size.
I have tried different fonts in 'circle source block' the issue has not gone away, I don't seem to have this issue with 2009lt on my PC.
I am preparing a weld map for our welding shop, and they would like me to balloon each joint and create a table with each joint's number, so that the welder/pressure tester can sign off. Is there a way to balloon joints and not parts, or make a custom ballooning scheme?
I created a hatched sketch on one of my views to represent filler material. I want to balloon to this hatched area, but it want grab it. I have the filler material setup as a custom part. I can also create a sketched symbol for this, but it doesn't appear that they would accept it either.
I am currently running Inventor 2010 Build 272, Release: 2010-sp3
I am trying to modify the code Brian Ekins posted on Mod the Machine to renumber balloons across sheets. [uRL ....
It works great unless the item on the additional sheet is a sub-assembly. I believe it is because PartDef is declared as a PartComponentDefinition and there is nothing in the code to handle an assembly.
Dim partDef As PartComponentDefinition Set partDef = drawBOMRow.BOMRow.ComponentDefinitions.Item(1) partInfo(I - 1).ReferencedFile = partDef.Document.FullFileName
The Set partDef line was giving me a runtime error when it came to an assembly in the BOM until I added
"On Error Resume Next" at the start of the loop.
I tried changing the declaration to ComponentDefinition. It compiled fine, but didn't do anything. I think I'll have to add some duplicate code to handle an assembly in the BOM. Is there a better way to do this? Am I even on the right track?
If a balloon style is set to "Linear" the text in that balloon is automatically left aligned. If a balloon style is set to "None" the text in that balloon is automatically center aligned.
Is it possible to create a balloon with the balloon style set to "None", and have the text left aligned in a drawing document. Typically the balloon text is more that one line . The new line in inserted by pressing ctrl+Enter in the override value of the balloon.
I dont know if this is possible but what i am trying to do is create a custom detail ballon & outline similar to what is attached. this is how our client wants it to look & currently we create the detail & then sketch the outline & add a sketched symbol which has the identifier. We then turn off the detail layer which has the default outline.
The text for my item balloons is on a layer that i need turned off so i need to change the layer the value inside the balloon comes out on.... how do this?
Lets say for e.g. that I have 12 parts within an assembly, once auto balloon has done it’s job you notice that No. 9 balloon is blank and No. 10 balloon only shows 1 and not 10.
I'm using balloons to get information from parts, then writing that part info to a custom table. I need to keep track of which balloon corresponds to which table row.
Is there some object/property of Balloon where I can store a single number or string? I'm already using the value field, so that's unavailable to me.
Also, one balloon corresponds to one table entry. That means I cannot create a custom iProperty in the part the balloon is attached to since more than one balloon may reference the same part.
So I have set up a new style for rotate balloon text in Inventor 2011. But I am running into a problem when I pull the balloon away from the view to have a leader it does not stay rotated.
I have little problem for synchronize balloon with part list where some times I put single component to main assy for create detail drawing. The problem is balloon from single component must change manually for synchrone with Part List. If number changed in part list sometimes I forgot for change balloon. So it's become miss match between balloon and part list. How to make this become synchron.
I am trying to get the balloons equidistant from each other and on the same horizontal "line", however when I try to place some balloons, I can not select the correct placement. The balloon is effectively acting like trying to put two magnets with the same polarity together... I just can't get it in the right place.
The balloon tip that pops up is just an explanation of what the item is for or what it does when selected. I think I would be pretty safe in guessing that whenever a balloon tip appears there is a help button to go to any particular item. How these things can be disabled or turned off. I did find somewhere, a while ago, a way to edit the registry. But that was when I was using Windows XP.
Now I'm using Windows 7 and the only place these balloons get under my skin is in AutoCad. Which is vanilla AutoCad version 2010. I guess I have to give up trying to insert an image. I have a *.jpg file but no matter what folder I put it in this "insert image" function don't or can't see it for some reason.
I have a piece of steel from the content centre 165mm long. The balloon (stacked format) quantity reads 165.000mm. I've had to format the parts list to get rid of the decimal places but I can't find a way of getting rid of them in the balloon. Any format setting somewhere?
In AutoCAD leader settings you can set the number of point so the leader looks standard. I am searching for this in inventor and am coming up empty. I have seen other engineering drawings where I can tell that the generated data in the balloon was entered from the parts column in the B.O.M. But instead of part numbers, I have seen text. and I have mine set up to generate the Balloons that way but I do not like the leader type it is giving me. The attachment is what my leaders are looking like in inventor.
