I have Photoshop CS5. When stroking type, I can't get the edges/corners sharp (see attachment)- is there a way to do this? Possible in CS6? I believe possible in Illustrator, but cheaper and easier for me to do it in Photoshop if possible (I don't have any version of Illustrator), and I won't have to learn a new program.

I was almost positive that there was a way to convert a point added to a curve in the Curves dialog to be a sharp corner, but I can't seem to locate it now.
when using the bevel and emboss tool in the layer style menu, to make a sharp inner corner? I was working on creating a frame using hard chisel bevel - it makes the outside of the frame have a sharp corner, but the inside is rounded. See sample image at: URL....

I know that if I just choose the "stroke line" option, any corners in the path will be sharp instead of rounded, but I need to stroke with the brush so that I can apply brush dynamics. Can you even do this?
^^this is what happens with the brush

why is stroking paths so dang hard.
I'm trying to make the edges sharp, when I use the Rectangle tool there is a 1px line on the edges which I think is suppose to blend the image to the background, but I don't want this 1px line, I want the edges to be sharp. How do I switch this off.
Using CS2, and I'm sure this is a default setting because I remember reading something about it in the book but now I can't find it.
I have designed a small gif motif for a webpage. I used paths which I then filled so it would be sharp. However, when I reduce it to the size I would like on the web page (about 45 pixels) , the edges look ragged. I can't seem to get rid of the bitmapped look.

I would imagine part of the problem is I have been using the polygonal lasso to help block off the areas i want to layer mask - I have tried the free hand lasso but the results are too wonky.

I have thought about booleans but I don't understand why the stack closes and how to smooth the new sharp edges created when i do it.
How would you go about it?
The aim is to create a cylindrical opening in the sheet while maintaing the smoothing, while getting the edges themselves smoothed.
My stack is EditPoly, TurboSmooth, Bend, Box.
it seems it's impossible to paint sharp edges in mudbox (ie when painting there is no softness to the brush)... is there a good way to do this that i'm missing?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a stock filter or one that can be added to GIMP that sort of rounds the edges of sharp parts of an image?
I'm looking for a filter or effect that can round the sharp edges of a bitmap image of a font, to give it that 'Xerox Machine' effect where a sharp font looses it's sharp corners and gets a rounded effect from being copied over and over.
I already tried the 'Gaussian Blur' filter, but that just creates soft edges and not the rounded corners that I'm looking for. The effect that I'm looking for is not fuzzy or blurred, but is more of a 'rounded corners' effect... it can be seen in the attached image that is below.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to figure out if there is a more efficient way of doing this for some time. It seems so basic but it always comes to play in my smoothing process.
For all you more experienced modelers, what is the best way to have the edges and corners stay at their 90 degree angles when smoothing while not compromising the roundness of the surface with artifacting or pinching in the corners. I find this problem when creating extrudes with sharp corners on curved/ round surfaces then smoothing them.
I know how to make rounded corners. But the background has color and shows the square corners of the palette.

When i crop part of an image (in this case my web site) photoshop automaticaly strokes the inside of the crop!! When i then put the images into a table in html all the separate images have a box around them!
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have an image open.
I choose the pen tool and then click a place on the image and then a second and a ‘line’ connects them. Two anchor points and a line between them.
I go to the Paths pallet and save this work so that the Paths layer says, “Path 1” and I've also tried doing it unsaved.
Then I try stroking it with the brush in any of the three ways you get to the stroke command i.e. right click, upper right arrow, etc.
The dialogue box comes up and I choose brush (having already chosen a 14 pix width and 100%) and it should stroke my line but all it strokes are the two (or more if I put them in) anchor points.
The funny thing is if I create my line with the pencil tool it will stroke it with no problem but not any line drawn with the pen tool.
I am simulating ropes so the pencil line is not smooth but all pixulated and I want to learn how to stroke with the pen tool.
I am using photoshop cs (really just learning), and when I try to stroke a path to make a border, all I get is my brushes stroke at the corners or sharper curves. Is this what is supposed to happen, am I doing something wrong, or is there a way to make a "border" around the entire path?

(Why does it need more than one?)
Eg - I've just made a curve with the pen tool, fine. I can select it, move it about, but I can't stroke it.
All the menu options are dimmed. By trying anything I might think is appropriate, I usually get there, but quite often either the whole layer boundary is stroked, or a V shaped path when stroked gives a triangle, or an S shaped curve has the ends connected as though by White, so there's a bit missing in the middle.
Often I retry something I believe ought to work, and hey presto it does - but it didn't the first time.
I've read and reread Classroom in a Box and the help files, but I'm missing something.
CS2, XP.
I´ve been making pixel art for a while now and recently I upgraded to cs6. all was fine till I tried to stroke a circular path with the pencil tool. The Circles it makes are completely uneven.
Â
These are the paths i traced in different sizes
Â
this is the stroked path with a 1 x 1 pixel pencilÂ
as you can see the the bottom and right part of the circles is different from the top left. it is more noticeable on smaller circles.it also happens with bigger stroke sizes.this diddn´t happen in cs5.
I made a vector shape of an arrow (see below) and then rasterized the layer.
Then I double-clicked the layer and gave the grey shape a 1px black stroke outline. Only after hitting OK, the 1px black stroke shows up as a thick, grey stroke.
I cant seem to get the tapered effect to occur when stroking a path. I strok the path after selecting the brush tool.
Choose Brush and make sure there is a tick next to Simulate Pressure. This is important as it will give your curve tapered ends which will make it rock!
