I have just become aware of the smart guides in CS4. They seem to show up momentarilyin vicinity of certain points e.g. the center of page or the pupil of human eye.I have found very little about them in the help section -

I don't use smart guides, don't want em don't need em. Don't even know why they originally came on, but can't get them off, no matter how many times un check them.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have to save the smart guides and the slices created with those smart guides.
Is there a easy way to do this independed ( in a separate file ) from my curent design?
I need those for some comming works.
The only thing I comeup with is save a copy of the current design, clear the layers and use it as a template.
But then I lose some flexability if I had to change a smart guide and want to update existing designs.
I was working on a project and using Smart Guides, but suddenly, they disappeared. I don't know what I did, the Smart Guide box is still checked in the View panel, and if I open a new document, they work just fine again. what other settings I should check?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm having some trouble with smart guides in Ai CS6. They are on. However, when my cursor intersects a guide path, words like 'intersect' and 'guide' do not appear, as I have seen them do for others. Also, the 'heads-up' information display that shows the width and height, e.g. when using the grid tool, does not appear either.
The guides are working to some extent, it seems, since I do get green lines here and there.
Seems like both should still work when snap to pixels is on... but they don't. Any reason for this?
View 13 Replies View RelatedIn AI, smart guides indicated "intersection" when I am drawing a path or moving an object to align to the intersection of two guides, when I release the mouse, the object I am moving/drawings jumps slightly off the intended alignment intersection. If I continue to try to move it to align, it jumps to the other side or back to where it was but will mot match the intersection.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a number of vertical and horizontal guides to be placed, at different points. Is there a better way of placement rather than zooming up on the ruler area, watching the Nav coordinates and dragging and dropping? I'm really looking for a method which will I can key in the actual placement coordinates in some way, and the guide will jump to this point?

Draw an ellipse. Skew it with mouse.
Draw a rectangle to allign with ellipse's outer dimension by Alignment Guides (not by Align and Distribute command).
Now the aligned side of the Rectangle must be tangent to the ellipse BUT it's not! To verify, try to search an intersection point. Draw a Guideline and snap it to the rectangle's aligned side. It must be intersection point between Guideline and Ellipse but there isn't...

1. Is there a way for masking each smart filter separately on a single smart object other than nesting one smart object into the another?
2. Is there a way for removing the previously created smart object?
I mean ... let's say I have a smart object containing four layers. Can I remove smart object from these layers?
Why doesnt the smart filter mask move with the smart object?

Problem: Transform applied to Smart Object fails to transform an attached Smart Filters Mask.
I mean a Transform, including Free Transform, as found in the Edit menu. A simple move by the Move Tool is OK.
A workaround until this bug is squashed is to encapsulate the Smart Object + Smart Filters + Filter Mask inside another Smart Object and transform that.However, that will not be a satisfactory solution in some cases. If a filter has size parameter(s), e.g. Gaussian Blur radius, a scaling or warping/distorting transform applied after the filter will obviously differ from the filter applied after the transform.
In any case, the workaround is inconvenient to subsequent editing and experimenting with filters and masks.
last couple of documents I've been working on,I've been needing horizontal and vertical guides (no problem) but why is it when i close the file (saved all work) when I open the file to continue the guides have to be redone. Isn't there a save guides option in CS6
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there any way to paste guides, or, putting it another way, can I take an image, add guides, erase the image, keep the guides and paste in another image? Everytime I paste in another image I lose the guides. I want to know where I am in the second.
View 8 Replies View RelatedWhen adding a guide in CS2, it would usefully snap to the centre of the current layer. Sadly, cannot make this happen in CS3 except for text layers.
View 18 Replies View Relatedis there any way to create multiple guides in an image by giving the space in pixels or inches as I have to put hundreds of guides in some images and I dont want to do the standard drag and drop procedure of making guides because its more time consuming and also I have the exact pixels location where I need to put those guides in different images ( I dont want to record actions either because images are different),

View 6 Replies View Relatedis there some kind of guide to make signatures with ps?
like what brushes and what things do you use to make them? or is it random?
Is there some way to make new images based on the guides? I have a file I need to cut into smaller ones, and I've put guides to block everything off -- but guides seem mostly cosmetic / snap to grid, and less useful otherwise.

View 2 Replies View Relatedi have recently switched to ps 7 and i find myself wanting to go back to my 5.5
what is wrong with the guides in there? when using the snap to guide, and i select something within the guides, the stupid selection sometimes falls short or too big by 1 pixel. this renders the whole purpose of the guides useless.
i also find that its much harder to set the guides to match up. i set them, sometimes even zoomed in at 200-300% and when i zoom in more 1600% i find the guide not quite where its supose to be.
i didnt have any of these problems with my previous version. i looked around in the options and couldnt figure anything to make it better.

Now have CS3, and cant get the selection to snap!
When using the MARQUEE it positions the selection 2 pixels up and 1 pixel to the left of the guide (on the outside).
The guides will snap to the selection, however.
Sometimes when GUIDES are LOCKED the selection will snap to a guide, but not always.
Also, in the old days the curser would turn red when on a guide when lined up corrctly. This doesn't seem to happen now.
And in the mists of time do I remember correctly that there was a setting in which you could choose the snap distance?
I did a mockup in Photoshop for a design that needs to go to press in a couple of days. It's complete with guide marks...
Now, I realize that it needs to be slightly smaller than I originally laid it out to be.
I can free-transform it down to the right size... but, my guides don't come with it. They stay the same. Is there a way to get the guides to shrink along with everything else?
To make guidelines that lead to vanishing points, I make a 1 pixel line and rotate it until it is aligned, though at times this process becomes cumbersome. Is there an easier way to create guide lines to vanishing points?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a 960 grid layout, with all the vertical guides showing the grid.
I want to increase my canvas width from 960 to 1200, keeping the artwork centred, so in the canvas size dialog box I select the center anchor. Unfortunately this keeps the artwork centred but the guides always move left, as if they're anchored to the left of the canvas. This means the guides are no longer in position.
Is there any way to add more canvas to both sides while keeping the guides where they are relative to the artwork?
is there anyway of saving my slice and guides to use as a template for other projects? I've sliced up one image and created an HTML page, and the next image I want to use the same slice and guide positions, with some very minor adjustments.
can I apply one slice/guide template to another image in PS7?
I have a quite large Photoshop document where I've drafted up a number of pages for a website, and I require guides which are specific to certain layers or groups, and not just to the whole document. Is this possible? Any plugins which serve this purpose, or functionality I'm missing?
