I want to make a website with a patterend background, but I can't ever get the patterened background to match up with the "background" of the curved.
How do I get the background of an image that makes the curved border match up with the background?
I am preparing a batch of images for test submission, for a stock photo library.Recently a person working for one of the visual effects studios in London happened to tell me that these strict agencies use some set of layers that can separate tonality and color values to check for banding, dirtiness, noise and all those technical flaws that the human eye can't notice on a monitor.He said they perhaps have an action for it so that they can review faster.
He said that it is known as 'Craze Curves' or 'Visibility Curves' technique.He further added that all the studios use it before giving the final files to clients so that there is no issue in printing afterwards.It is sort of a quality control check and has been used by digital and advertising agencies all over the world.
But now his email seems to have changed and I can't get in touch with him to know how to use the technique.
I've been seeing a few flowerish type tiled backgrounds.
How or where can I make or find brushes like this?

The expression he has and every other thing is just perfect but I want to replace the plaid with a color and /or another pattern(such as a dark blue denim). Is it possible to do so without losing the lines/folds of the shirt? I know I can play with the hue/saturation but that still leaves me with the horrible plaid pattern.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've run into this problem with different sketch types when curves cross each other and are trimmed, or when patterned sketches are coincident. The problem I'm having is that I'm creating a ratchet wheel and I'm patterning a sketch in two parts so that the spacing for the teeth line up. What I do first is draw the angled line of the tooth, do a circular pattern of 20 teeth around the origin, an then create an arc from the bottom point of each line to the tip of the next line to create the back of the tooth. When I try to extrude it, it says the loop is not closed, but when I do the repair, it says it overconstrains the sketch and is not possible. I've tried creating this profile using a center circle that intersects the bottom of the teeth and it does not work either. I was able to make the profile I needed by making one tooth, extruding it, patterning the feature, and then creating a circular sketch in the middle and extruding it. The problem with this (aside from requiring additional steps not needed in other programs) is that when I needed to go back and change tooth dimensions, it can't rebuild the sketch.
I attached two different sketches of the non-closed profile as well as the solid ratchet piece that I made using the pattern feature command that has the teeth that can't be easily edited.
I'd like to crop a circle out of an patterned image.

I'm driving this sub-assembly with a quantity parameter and when addition instances are created, the hidden part turns visible. I can bring the sub-assembly in multiple times and the parts remains non-visible, however, once I pattern it, the part shows up in all instances except for the original.

I have created my own Patterned Curtain wall Family and applied it to a conceptual mass, I have not added any parameters as I'm not too familiar with this aspect of Revit. The corners of the building do not align allowing viewing straight into the interior.

I'm trying to conform a couple of thin films on top of each other to a complex shape. I am trying to conform the one in this picture: [URL].......
My final result should look exactly like "untitled.3.jpg", but with the gold and silver patterns seen at the link to the website on top of the silver film.
I've tried the "cloth" modifier, but it seems it only works to conform planes and not solids. I've also looked at "flex" and "skin", but still no luck.
What modifier would be best to accomplish this? I would like to be able to tune how much the film conforms to the surface.
Here's the CAD model for the assembled thin films: [URL].......

Is there a way to invert my selection so that I can subtract or extrude the circles instead of the area around them? As is now, I have to select every circle to subtract them from the shape.

It seems that if you want to repeat along non-perpendicular axes like this, Inventor fails if there are too many repeats. I came across this when searching the site:
[URL]
I can verify that this is my exact problem but can add that in my example, 4 repeats on the almost horizontal axis and 3 on the vertical work fine. However, 3 almost horizontal axis repeats by 4 vertical axis repeats will only work if I choose the vertical axis as Direction 2. (Is this a bug or am I trying to use the Rectangular Pattern Tool incorrectly?)
The repeat unit can be simplified to 1 circle with 2 construction lines along the repeat Direction instead of the 2x2 circles shown here but the problem persists. Also
how to use Curves, in CS3.
View 6 Replies View RelatedHow do you get bezier curves in PhotoShop CS6 to act the way they used to in CS5.5? In 5.5 i would be able to move/adjust the path with the direct select tool and the control arms would stay at the angle they were created at. In CS6, depending on where you direct selected the path, would depend on how the path could be/would be adjusted. And the control arms have become more fluid, rather than static. They do not keep the angle they were created.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow do I get a percentage value in Curves-in CS5 it used to be command-click would make a dot on a point on the curve, to allow for accurate adjustment...
View 8 Replies View RelatedWhen making adjustments in the curves panel the procedure in previous editions was to raise the curve in the upper section to lighten the image and lower it to darken the image. Mine is working just the opposite. When i raise (or lift) the curve the image darkens and when I lower it lightens. The lower half for contrast works the in the same backwarsds way.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen using Curves to increase contrast for an image, I see that some people will use the eyedropper to define an anchor point on the Curve to manipulate, and others just seem to drag on a spot on the curve without first using the eyedropper.
1. Is there a reason to not use the eyedropper, and instead just drag a point on the curve?
2. Won't using the eyedropper always be more accurate than just eyeballing a spot on the curve to drag?
I have a question about using toning curves...
In older versions of Photoshop, I was able to use Paul Butzi's beautiful toning curves (which are ACV files) through the Curves menu.
There was a 'Load' button, and if I pressed that, I could browse my curves folder and pick whatever curve I wanted. Is there any way to do that in Photoshop CS5? I can't seem to find a 'Load' button under Curves, and I'm not sure how to use the Custom Curve feature.
I can't seem to load them under Filters, either. How I could load them?
When using Curves, one used to be able to move from one point to the next ("point" is what I use to refer to the points that determine the shape of the curve) by holding the Control key and pressing Tab.
This no longer appears to work with Photoshop CS5. I am wondering how I can move from one point to the next without having to click on the next point. More often than not I end up actually moving the point when trying to click on it.
So, I absolutely love a lot of the changes I've come across so far. I am very happy with the crop tool changes except for one thing. I work on hundreds of B/W headshots at a time where all I do is crop>curves. Up until CS6, when in the crop tool it would still show tone info in the info pallette. Now it shows nothing. This puts a crimp in my workflow because I either have to open the curves dialog or switch to the eyedropper tool to see if I need to apply curves. I have noticed that if I hide the crop area it will revert to showing the info .
Also, with the curves dialog I am going to complain about something that started with CS5. The 'click and drag in image to modify curve' feature is pretty cool but it should respect my option settings. I work with it displaying the amount of pigment but the click and drag feature doesn't respect this setting.
As I said small issues (especially the second one) but it would be nice to get them changed.
I am stumped with this problem and havn't found a thread that seems to give me a points in how to simplify the procedure/problem described. Is there a plug-in ?
I am using PS7.0 and am at the beginner end of the spectrum.
I have TWO pictures and want to duplicate the colour values at certain points in the picture. The manual operation would be to:
1) Open Picture #1, put colour samplers in at the points I want duplicated (max 4) and write down on a piece of paper the RGB values at those points. I make the assumption that the points are all present on the Picture #2 and that the tonal values are all different enough that they fall on different parts of the tonal curve. ....
