We are finding that paths are not following when saving a PSD as a PNG file. We have tried with and without compression, interlaced and not. This was not an issue on CS5, but seems to be on CS6.
How to fix it without reverting to workflow on CS5 or pulling over the paths from the PSD after creating the PNG by hand?
I'm using CS5 on a mac. I've always been able to save JPG files with clipping paths intact. Suddenly today the paths won't save. I do a 'save as' and the path is there. When I close the file and open it up again, the path (not work path, but a saved path) is gone. No path in the path panel list! I am guessing I must have accidentally changed a setting?

When I save the other file as a jpeg all the paths are there after I've saved the file and BEFORE I've closed the file. After closing and reopening the file the paths are all gone. If I save the same file as a tiff the paths all stay as usual.
I'm in the process of creating an SVG file. I'll have a large number of paths of which all have a seemingly random ID's assigned to them, for example path4758 (see below). Ideally, I'd love to be able to set my own ID for a path, it would work when I parse my SVG file with a Python script. Is it possible to change the ID that is assigned to a path inside of Illustrator? If so, how would I be able to do so?

I have recently output a job to print that was supplied .AI with a simple .TIFF image placed on an artboard at its desired crop.

After referring to the original TIFF file I have realised whilst inside illustrator my image suddenly has a clipping mask attached to it, and a lot of it is missing. (however in outline, illustrator only see's a single TIFF bounding box)
Â
Looking more closely at the TIFF in Photoshop, i've found it has x3 paths inside it!) Illustrator is picking these up and masking my photo. Is there a default function or process that can stop this from happening in the future, so it ignores any paths within the file?
I want to join two paths to create a shape that I can fill but at the same time retain one of the original paths (the red one in the image below). I can copy the path I want to retain but surely there is a more elegant solution. See below for for an illustration:

View 8 Replies View RelatedSince upgrading to Photoshop CS, if I try to make a selection from a complex path, only the outer perimeter of the path selects. Any interior "holes" are ignored. I'm not sure if this is a bug or just something new that I've missed. I've been working with photoshop paths for as long as they've existed, but this has me utterly baffled.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a logo that incorporates a circle and a picture of a dog.
Now I want to acheive a look where the dogs legs are hanging over one part of the circle but the circle is covering the rest of his body as though he had put his head througha hole in the wall.
I have been trying to acheive this with clipping paths but I can't see how to recreate the smooth lines of the original circle.
In some tutorials they make selections and store them into a channel. In others they use the pen tool and store the selection as a path.
Are these two ways or doing the same thing or they have different uses?
What are the pros and cons of each one?
Basically, I open photoshop, and I select the pen tool. I then make a small shape, like a square or circle or something with it. So now obviously, I have a closed work path in such a shape.
Black is my foreground colour. I right click the path with the pen tool still selected, and choose 'Fill Path' and click ok. But for some reason, it's everything but the path that gets filled with black!
how I did this, but does anyone know how to change it so that it's the area that's boxed off which gets filled, rather than the area outside it?
The thing is this: I have some paths (shapes) that I want to combine into one path and trim all the excess path lines. I can put the paths into the same path-layer by just copying/pasting that works fine, but the paths are still NOT really combined.
I have made an example to illustrate my point, please have a look at that.
1) I've created paths 1 and 2
2) I combined them into another path-layer
3) Thought the thing I need is anchor points at the intersection so I added those
4) When I delete the anchor points whithin the combined shape, the whole shape distorts and it shows that it really is not a combined path but just two separate paths in the same layer! I can't seem to trim the red marked lines off the path.
My question basically is how to remove the red marked part of those paths and combine them into a 'really-one-path' shape that follows the outline of the combined shape?
I have tried to create an outline path by turning the combined path into a selection and then create a path from that selection, that doesn't produce a nice smooth path when the shape is more complex...
I am working my way through both Martin Evenings "PSCS for Photographers" and Barbara Obermeiers "PSCS for Dummies" (thats me I think) and I'm really struggling to understand curved paths.Does anyone know of a site that explains them in very basic terms i.e. kids stuff?.
As I understand it when I drag from a straight segment to create a new path for a curve and release the mouse and I should get an anchor point and one direction line and one direction point,but all I seem to get is what appears to be a tiny plus sign at the end of the line.
When working with the pen tool and paths is ps7...Did you notice if you make a curve and fill it with a color the bended parts are so jagged? even though the anti aliasing is on...
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm using the Pen Tool to draw several paths; I need to draw each path with reference to the other, previously drawn, paths. This is where I encountered a problem with Photoshop CS3: whenever I create a new path, the old ones become invisible, and I can only see one path at a time - the one that's selected in the Paths panel.
Is there any way to control the visibility of the different existing paths (as you can, for example, with layers) and to make several (unstroked) paths be visible simultaneously?

I get the resolution, I'll make them 300 PPI...but what is a clipping path? Does that just mean that they want them cropped? They have not specified a size or aspect ratio.
even though I will mostly be taking a break from hobbyist graphic design (I'll actually be taking a course on it so I wont be away from it completely), one of the games I play is running a contest that involves graphic work. I decided to do it and am stumbling into a problem that I've had before but never asked about:
Is there a way for me to add on to an existing path with the pen tool and build from there IF the path is closed?
