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.

Illustrator :: Use Pen Tool To Make A Path With A Fill

May 29, 2012

When I use the pen tool to make a path with a fill, the fill updates immediately and correctly, but the path highlight (which usually displays as long as I'm working on a given path) only shows up when I hover my cursor above the path itself. Also, and this is a lesser issue, Illustrator's splash screen displays "Tryout." It came with CS6 MC, and none of the other apps are in trial mode.

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.

When I use the fill tool to simply 'fill' a selection, it does not completely fill it. There is an ivisible barrier or line that prevents it from filling all the way to the edge. Do you think I have my settings wrong?

Photoshop :: How To Fill Path Created Around Text

Jan 27, 2013

I am using old Photoshop 7 because honestly, it has always filled every minor need of mine.  Normally, I'm not doing much more than creating simple display placards, but this new project has me stumped.  I am creating a simple layout for a device that will be silkscreened.  The screen will be exposed using what I am creating in PS7, printed on a transparency.
 
The problem I am running into is with the text dithering.  I found a tutorial that explained selecting the layer, then using Layer>Type>Create Work Path to generate a path around all of the text on the layer.  I am now attempting to fill this path with solid black.  When I select the path in the palette, the dot to fill the path is grayed out.  I found an app note that stated when text is active, this is not an option.  I tried disabling the text layer, but it didn't work.

Photoshop :: How To Transform Layer Object And Path At Same Time

Nov 20, 2012

I would really like to know if there is any way I can manage to to transform both a layer object and a path at the same time....or if there is any workaround to achieve this.
 
In a nutshell, say for example I spend a VERY long time creating an intricate path around a very detailed object, and then at the very end notice just how crooked and out of perspective it is, and would like to straighten it.

Of course I could transform and correct the object, and then carefully transform the path - but it just won't be exact, and I will have to spend a long time adjusting the path and making SURE it is perfect.
 
Isn't there any way I could get to transform them together?
 
Usually of course I do all the correction to straighten and correct perspective beforehand, but in some instances after I am done creating the path I then notice that the image could have used further adjustments.

GIMP :: Cannot Fill A Path

Jan 13, 2014

I've created a complicated polygon (hundreds of nodes) with the Paths Tool and am trying to fill it. When I select the Bucket Fill Tool, I get a tiny little error message at the bottom that reads: "Cannot modify the pixels of layer groups". Now then, I do have a Layer Group in the Layers tab to collect text items, but this is a Path in the Paths tab (which I thought was separate).

I have tried switching the path from Stroke to Selection, but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

In the past, I've used Fireworks (mainly), Photoshop, and Illustrator with varying degrees of success.

Illustrator :: Compound Path Fill Rules?

I rarely want my Compound Paths to have voids where overlapping takes place, but sometimes (and it seems random) I get voids anyway.

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 :: 3D Extrude Of A Path Has Weird Fill

Nov 9, 2012

I'm looking to do a simple 3D ribbon with text mapped onto it.
 
Using the pen tool I made a line with slight curves to it, then 3D > Extrude/Bevel.
 
The end result added 'volume' to my ribbon. See here:[URL]....
 
The parts with Green X's on them are what i'd like to get rid of, so that it's basically a wide ribbon with minimal 'thickness'.
 
I'm using Illustrator CS5 on Windows 7.

Illustrator :: Filled Path When There's No Fill Applied?

Jan 17, 2013

I have this path that I got from Shutterstock. No matter what I do with it, it's got this green fill on it. So if I apply a grey fill to it, the grey fill is put on top of the green. If I remove the fill completely, the green fill is still there.
  
Maybe the person who made it applied some kind of magical unremovable fill color to it or someting?
 
I've ungrouped it, checked that there's no effects in the appearance panel, and of course checked that there's no outline on the path. I've also tried releasing compund paths. There's no opacity mask or transparency modes. Nothing worked.

Illustrator :: Cannot Fill Path Correctly After Using Image Trace

Dec 14, 2013

When I pull a regular 2-color photo from the web and use the tracing option, selecting ignore white, then expanding it into a path, it will not fill correctly.  Instead of filling the object created, it fills the entire photo area of the original image.  URL....

In the video, you'll notice that the fill option after expanding is marked with a "?".The goal here is to, after expanding, fill ONLY the image of the cursor.

Illustrator Scripting :: CS5 - Change Fill Color Of Selected Path Items

Apr 2, 2013

I'm trying to create a script in CS5 mac os10.6.8 that will change the fill color of selected pathItems. I need a simple script that will change a selected pathItem to cmyk values 2,3,15,0. I will then select this script and implement the action in a batch of 600 files.
 
I wish this process could be recorded as an action but when I record the action "add new swatch" I have to manually input the cmyk values, which will take forever for a batch of over 600 files.

Photoshop :: Pen Tool Won't Fill Object When...

Jun 10, 2009

to fill with the paint bucket ... or make sure i have a fill color selected.  I have already tried that.  Everytime i make an object, and close it off, it doesnt fill.  And if i try to fill the object, it fills everything.  And yes, i double check to make sure i am closing the object.  After i get done drawing the shape, i can right-click with the pen tool and open the "Fill Path..." option, and tell it to fill it, and it will.  But i want it to fill in when i am done drawing each shape.  Is there anything that i can do to make this happen.
