Is there a way to transform a rectangle into a true semicircle? One long side of the rectangle should be preserved, the other long side be transformed into a semicircular curve. The endpoints of the curve will then coincide with the two ends of the opposite side.
View 7 RepliesI am running the latest version of PS CC on a MacBook Pro OS 10.8.5 with 16GB of ram. When I started my computer this morning an update from Adobe came up so I ran it. Now the move tool and the free transform function are not working. Literally nothing happens when I click drag with the move tool and when I try to use free transform I get an error message I've never seen:
Â
"Could not transform because the initial bounding rectangle is empty.."
I was working on this computer last night using PS on the exact same files and did not run into this problem. Perhaps it was something in the update I ran this morning? The description for the update claimed it added a new version of Camera Raw and added new camera profiles. I don't see how, but its possible that the update effected the way the tools work, or in my case not work.
I've got CS3 and working on a document. I'm typing in text but nothing is coming up on my document. The cursor is not flashing but the text I've written is shown as a layer.
I tried selecting Free Transform and I'm getting the message:

I need to transform a rectangle part of my picture to a triangle, linearly, only with horizontal distortion, keeping vertical positions in place. (a rectangle to a triangle standing on its side, by moving the top corners to one point).
I tried the Cage Transform: the top of the picture seems good, but it also distorts the bottom line in this case. Other tools seem not suitable at all.
how to bend an rectangular image into a semicircle?? i.e. creating a clock face type image.

I have been trying to make a semicirlce or a half of a circle in order to make a Sun on a horizon.Thus far I have used the Ellipse tool and tried using the New Layer > Subtract Front Shape method but I am left with something closer to a crescent shape.
Â
I have also tried to draw a circle and then remove handles but that hasn't worked either.
I have 4 layers (background, layer1, layer2, layer3-text). They fill all 300 x 600 pixels that comprise the .psd/future image. What I want to do is use a rounded rectangle to encompass all of the other layers, so that the surrounding pixels (around the rounded rectangle) are transparent.
I want all of my current layers to be the content of a rounded rectangle.

Problem: Transform applied to Smart Object fails to transform an attached Smart Filters Mask.
Â
I mean a Transform, including Free Transform, as found in the Edit menu. A simple move by the Move Tool is OK.
Â
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.
Â
In any case, the workaround is inconvenient to subsequent editing and experimenting with filters and masks.
I saw that the Rounded Rectangle properties were not available on the regular rectangle (to change corner radius).

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm need to get the stripes to bend like in the photo. I tried it once with skew transformation, using it couple of times, step by step, but it did not look that smooth.
So is there a way I can do it? I have no clue how, if at all, it can be done.
Currently testing Photoshop CS (for MacOSX) and i've knowticed that the 3D transform filter has been removed. Does anyone have any clue where i can get it from; other than the CD.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI draw a rectangle and I want to change its shape. How do I go about doing that? I have selected the Direct Selection tool and clicked on the outlines of the shape (the path?) and this brings up 4 squares on each corner (handles?) and when I click and drag I am able to pull the line/path out, up, down etc.However, I would like to be able to move the lines in a curve. I am looking to bring up the line with the round handles ~ like when the Pen tool is used.
Â
I did it once by mistake but now I can't figure out what I did. I thought maybe that I had used Ctrl + click on the shape or path but that doesn't seem to be it.I also tried going to the Pen tool to manipulate the path the way I want but that just either added or took away a handle ~ which is okay and great and all but not for what I am trying to accomplish.
I've recently started using Photoshop CS5. For some reason when I select a path and hit command T to transform it, it doesn't work. The transform ignores that I have the path selected and trys to transform whichever layer is active.

Im having a rather annoying problem with transform again, I'm trying to create a cylinder effect from a circle, I duplicate the layer select free transform and nudge it over 1 pixel then click (shift alt command T) to repeat the transformation, it seems to work ok when I nudge to the right but when I nudge to the left, the left hand edge of the duplicated circles is cut off along the line of the original transform controls as if there is an invisible clipping mask, but there are no masks in the document, quitting photoshop and restarting and reopening the document doesn't solve the problem.
View 3 Replies View RelatedAll aspects of transform are lagging under Windows 8.1, including rotate, free transform and warp. This is different from Windows 8.0, where Transform was working fine. On a 360 degree image rotation using transform I am getting about 5-6 animation frames (very stuttery and unusable)
Â
Running all latest software and drivers, GPU rotate canvas is working fine and smoothly.
It would be nice to zoom in and out to check a transformation without applying it.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am having an issue when trying to use the Free Transform function in Photoshop CS5.1. After pressing command+T, the bounding box appears, but when I attempt to resize, the program becomes unresponsive. After a minute or two I can cancel the Free Transform and the program become responsive once again. Seems to be more of an issue when trying to transform more than one layer at once.

I am on a 1 year old MacBook Pro with 16GB, I have 10 GB of free space. I am on OS X 10.7.5 (recently installed this upgrade and this may be part of the issue.)
Â
I am in 64-bit mode. My memory usage set at 70%. The cache tile size is set to 1024K . I have reset my settings, ran all available updates.
Â
My card specs are:
Video Card Vendor: ATI Technologies Inc.
Video Card Renderer: ATI Radeon HD 6750M OpenGL Engine
Â
After visiting the AMD site, found that they do not have an update for 10.7.5 and do not have the HD6750 listed for Mac.
Â
Edit: Also, cannot move the image once I press command+T. (Or at least it make the program unresponsive for a while)
Â
Update: Uninstalled entire design suite and re-installed. Still having the same issue.
Does anyone know how to select part of a pixel image and transform not only the Background Layer but also its adjustment layers at the same time? When you Shift-click the layers together, the transform box doesnt encase the selected part any longer but rather it encases the entire image.

I try to free transform an image whether it be rotating, enlarging, scewing or whatever, after I deselect, photoshop or imageready will automatically try and blur the image around so it seems smoother.
This is fine most of the time, but it produces some transparent pixels, and gifs have problems with these. Is there a way to stop PS and IR from doing this on a free transform so it just leaves the image as it is before deselecting?
my photoshop application disc, or my Illustrator disc will not start when put into my cd, every other disc works and starts just fine, just not my adobe disc,s, all I want to do is get the 3d transform.8bf filter and install it because it does not load autumatically, is there anywhere I can get this filter? using cs on XP
