I have just installed Photoshop CS6 and notice every time i add a new layer there is pixelated lines and decayed shapes that show up. This makes it impossible to work. I have a Nvidia Quadro 6000 running in combination with a tesla c2075 there was not any problem i could see with other CS6 programs and it was working fine with CS5.
View 3 RepliesI recently switched from PS7 to CS and am having a problem. As far as I can recall, when I created a ellipse and filled it in PS7 it was crisp and sharp (like a vector).
However, if I do this in PS:CS when I deselect the shape, the edges of the circle are blatantly pixelated and rough. I am sure this is justa simple setting but I can't for the life of me find it.
The document type is RGB w 16-bit channels.
After changing my monitor i found that all shapes pixelated when rotated 45 degree

Test #1 Photoshop file with two layers -- each with a photographTimeline: frame 1 has image from layer 1 and frame 2 has image from layer 2Choose Save For Web and the images look pretty goodI realize that GIFs are only 256 colors
Test #2 Create Photshop files as in Test #1Add a tween with 1 frameChoose Save For Web and the images look pretty good
Test #3Create Photshop files as in Test #1Add a tween with more than one frameChoose Save For WebThe images are now pixelatedTrash...All but one tween and an image is no longer pixelated, ORAll tweens and an image is no longer pixelated In other words, Saving For Web is fine as long as I don't add any tweens. As soon as I do, the images become pixelated. Take out the tweens, the pixelation goes away. And, I have tried to make all kinds of adjustments to the GIFs.
Do you know of a way to get absolute non-pixelated 45 degree lines in photoshop? I'm a little tired of having to go back and forth from illustrator just to get clean lines.
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe files I am creating in photoshop are all coming out very pixelated lately. Especially after I flatten the image or export it to a pdf. This is true even for text layers, eps files I placed, and vector-based objects I drew. The photo layers are pixelated too, even though they were hi-res to begin with and I only made them smaller when I added them to my document. Why everything is so pixelated? I tried changing the file from 72 to 300 pixels/inch, but that didn't clarify the images. It just smoothed the edges a bit.

I have used this feature before on my computer without a problem. I took my work to school to show my instructor. I did the same thing on the school's Apple without problem. What am I doing wrong?

View 3 Replies View RelatedLooking for a simple procedure to create text and shapes in CS4 starting with a blank document. Text added fine. After dragging with the rectangle tool, the result sometimes disappears, or not; in any case it does not print. When I add a line by dragging, the rectangle disappears. I must be missing something about layers, but have tried all the obvious layers commands and they do not seem to help.
View 1 Replies View RelatedToday, as I was fiddling around with PSPX5, I noticed that every time you create a rectangle/ellipse/pen tool lines/etc, a new layer is created.
Can I modify the current layer without having a new layer added?

I spent a good deal of time creating a little custom shape, combining layers and such, only to realize that...ack! it's facing left and I really wanted it to face right!
IS there a command that would "mirror" the layers - thus changing the orientation of the overall image?
I come from a PSP background, still a bit new to PS, and didn't see a tool for mirroring like PSP has.
I'm sending a PS document to a printer and to avoid the problem of the printer possibly not having a specific font I'd like to turn all my text layers into shape layers.
Is there a way to turn all text layers in a single document into shape layers easily? I know I can do it individually layer by layer but that just seems too tedious.
I do not want to rastorize the text, just turn it into vector shapes.
I messed up! I have like 70 different layers..each with a shape on it. I want all the shapes to be the same colour, but I dont want to do it manually and I want to keep te shapes.. Is there any way to do it? Besides layer style colour overlay...
Is there now way to merge these layers and put all the shapes together in one layer?
Starting with a blank document i want to create a poster. I go to add lines and shapes etc.. after drawing the first line or shape they disappear as soon as I go to draw another line or shape..
I use to design posters in a different program and what ever i drew stayed one the page it didn't disapear unless i place another object on top.
I have a rigged object and I would like to add a blend shape to this rig. Now my blend shape is not for morph animation rather it is for manipulating the original geometry. Put it this way, I modified the original object and I would like to put this new shape in place without changing my rig, or transferring weights or bones. I presume that best would be to put this before the rig deformer so that the bone deformer works on top of it? I am not sure how I should handle or approach this.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhenever I create a shape on my canvas, or I use a shape as a clipping mask, the entire canvas blacks out and I can't see anything until I click off to the side, in the workspace, so none of my layers are selected. This has happened when I have dropped items onto my canvas and am moving them around, as well.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm currently working with some vectorial cartoonish drawings, and while it's mostly quite easy, I'm having problems with disconnected lines. At the end of a disconnected line it needs to gradually get thinner and end in a small, rounded off point. It needs to to become thinner much slower than the normal rounded-off point, kind of a sharpenned edge effect.
So far the only method I could manage is making a shape instead of a line, but it's much harder to work whenever I want to change something, since I have to rework node by node. So I was wondering if there was a way to convert a line into a shape, so I can modify it all I want as a line, and then turn it into a shape and add the sharpened end.
I'm designing a badge for my cricket team and have created a design using a shield shape which I've divided into four quarters with a horizontal and a vertical line. How do I split the shape so I can colour the individual quarters? There are similar areas of the design made up of lines that I want to colour individually. I guess the question is, if I created a square shape by drawing four separate lines, how do I join the lines in order to fill the square shape with colour?

The second, it's already snapped to the bottom as it's horizontal (verticle obviously also snaps) but the angle doesn't. [URL] .....

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've got a problem with the combine shapes > slice (cut) shapes. (Designer Pro X).
I often use this tool to cut a graphic to make a repeating object, so I don't want it to have any boarder, just solid color. But for some reason when I cut the shape xara puts a little (approx 1 pixel) transparent line where the shape has been cut. This is often added to exported to the edges of pngs and svgs and looks a bit like anti-aliasing of some sort but I don't want this, just a solid object.
How to avoid this? See my attachment for an example png that I created by simply slicing one rectangle from another, I want to be able to do this without the extra line appearing - ie just solid black.
I am just starting to learn Layers and have several books, etc. to guide me. All the books start with lessons that assume you have several images (layers) under the Layers tab. The lessons describe what you do with all those layers but I can't find how to get the images under the tab. Can anyone tell me how to get several images under the layers tab?
View 8 Replies View RelatedExcuse my ignorance, but I just started using PS7 a few days ago and can't figure out how to work the layers option. I've read all sorts of tutorials, but I stilll can't figure out the most basic of things. I'm sure the answer is simple but I just can't get it to work and it's frustrating.
I understand what layering is, but I can't add layers. I can make a dublicate layer out of the background, but when I add a new layer it is always the same checkboard sheet. I can't figure out how to change it, how to add layers made from other images.
Every time I access another image to get another layer, my previous layer of the previous image has always disappeared from my layers palette. I've tried locking them, I've tried organizing them by putting them in sets,
I've tried many different options but I just cannot get 2 layers of 2 different images on at the same time in my layers palette., so I can link them and merge them. What am I doing wrong ?
