Photoshop :: What Does It Mean When It Says (scaled)...
Jan 24, 2006
I scanned an image (as I always do) and opened it in Photoshop, in the title bar (where it says what layer you're in and what color profile is used) it says (scaled) between brackets.
In the layer palette it shows the image in the upper left corner of the thumbnail, while the actual image takes up all of the working space area.
Hope this makes sense, I'll try to add a screenshot just to make sure it's not me if it doesn't
For some reason it affects the image as it is imported in InDesign CS as well: image looks scaled/distorted.
I have an image which is 4cm x 4cm (1200pixels by 1200pixels) 300ppi and i have placed it into an A3 size document. Because the image is 300ppi does that mean its tolerant to be upscaled without image pixelating?The fact that an image consists of 300di.
Does that automatically mean it can be upscaled into any sized document,or does the image also have to have pixels sufficient enough to be upscaled.
A few years ago I bought some Photoshop brushes to use in photo albums, but it turned out that when scaled to the size I need (they were flowering decorative frames), the resolution was too poor, so I never used them. This is how the brush looks with the size slider pushed all the way to the right viewed at 100%.
Is there any workaround for vectorizing Photoshop brushes so they can be scaled to any size?
I'm trying to create a MP4 directly out of Smoke. Surprisingly, the colors are correct, but the scaling is not. MP4 scales the image a bit up, and I don't know why. Is there anything I have to change in the settings, so the mp4 is the correct size?
In the attachment, the first picture is the mp4 and the second is rgb uncopressed (which has the correct size).

I have a drawing which I need to copy & paste into a new CAD document. It is a base build drawing that has been scaled 1:100 within the model space. I am trying to copy & paste it into a CAD template document however it is not converting the scale 1:1: the scale I want to work in and the selected scaled within the template. Do I need to convert the base build AutoCAD model space to 1:1 and then copy & paste it across?
Background Info: I am fixing about 10 drawings with to our clients standards, which are no where close to normal drafting standards. This client likes their titleblocks droped in to model space and scaled to fit, unless it has multiple scales on the drawing then it's O.K. to do it the correct way. I know right!!
Anyway I am trying to get some drawings ready for IFC.
The problem: The person that set these dwg's up did the dimentions in paperspace and now that I have them in model space I can't get the text size to change. I can't change them in dimention style format box because it is grey'd out. I tried to change the overall scale in the dim style box to no avail. I also tried highlighting and changing the text size in the properties box but alas that to failed.
Just started using autocad 2013 this weekend and was able to create a document and draw some rectangles with specific dimensions for a project I'm working on. The idea is to print it out and cut the rectangles out on a piece of foam board.
So I printed it out but all of the rectangles are crazy small. Like 50% smaller. I checked the objects and they're all showing as being the right size. Then I realized the background grid is the 8.5 x 11 landscape paper and that my rectangles were to scale of the printout but not 1:1 of the dimensions that I entered and the objects said they are.
in the left is my outlined shapes zoomed right in on a corner all perfectly alligned (3 shapes in total next one is ontop of another perfectly inline) then next is the preview zoomed in as you can see not perfectly inline and next is my full image so you get an idea.
My probelm is when scaling like i've done here it causes the shapes to come out of line and then causes the overall image to look bad. But when i made the original pic it was fine its just when i resize this happens but as you can see the outline is fine?
I am having issues with scaling objects that I have already created. I think it started because I inadvertantly turned on "Align new objects to pixel grid" But I have turned these off (under New Document as well as the Transform menu), quit Illustrator, and reset prefs.
An alignment was created from an existing 2D polyline.
The alignment stations, and the geometric properties, incidate that it is approximately 57 units in length.
If I use the DIST command from one end of the alignment to the other, it measures approximately 690 units, which is what I expected.
Obviously there is a 1/12 (feet-to-inches) thing going on here. I think I need to scale the alignment properties and/or station label properties by a factor of 12, but don't know where to find this tool.
I would like to know how to go about printing scaled drawings form the Layout tab. How do I scale everything onto a say for example A3 paper in a scale of 1:100?
The DPI is modified from 96 to 192 and the image pixels is also scaled to twice resolution.But the screen the images size changes from 3 inch to 6 inch, when 100% zoom.This is wrong, the image should be displayed in what the size the image is.
All block containing Circle, Spline or Ellipse have Linetype Reset when they are scaled in a drawing who contain more that 1 ViewPort. (tested with CAD 2010 -> 2014)
I'm trying to send over a model that I'm working on to Mudbox 2012 and it sends over a mesh that is scaled way down. The original mesh in Max is not small to begin with at all. Zooming in and out is a problem as well as the standard brush size is too small to work with. Is there a setting that can be adjusted to keep the scale of the mesh close to 1:1 when sending meshes from program to program?
We have a drawing here that involves many annotative blocks mirrored to create a layout, then on reopening the drawing the annottaive text of the blocks that have been mirrored are in the correct place but the objects have 'pinged' off the layout,
Have a look - if you change the anno scale to any scale you will see the blocks but change to 1:50 (the scale i want it at!) they shoot off to the left of the layout (outside the defpoint rectangle).
I know it can be done but have had little luck finding how. I need to Convert GIS features to an engineering friendly cad file and I'm stumped at the point of assigning blocks to the points.
Also another issue is that I would often need to assign those blocks based on field values. Noob questions I know but it's my one critical step I've not sorted out.
I have several pillars that I want to scale down to the same size, but I don't want to have to scale them individually or reposition them once I'm done. Is there any way to scale them all without making them move along the axis being scaled? (I should have made them instances of each other. My only problem there is that I couldn't reposition one pillar without moving the others. for future reference, is there a way to temporarily break the instance relationship so on can be edited?)
I am tried to open the following svg in the illustrator but it was not scaled the stroke-width of the text, even I have changed the units into px. And its kinda merged svg from both illustrator and inkscape generated svgs.

I've got a block that I want to scale in pspace, but I would like the attrib height to remain constant even at different scales. I have used annotative blocks in vports with much success, but I would like to do the same thing only in pspace.
I'd like to add a sketch to my drawing - a sketch that is independent of any other views. Is it possible to make this sketch have a scale associated with it instead of being 1:1?
Right now I am just overriding all of my dimensions.
In modelspace, architectural schematic plans sections elevations which, when viewported into paperspace drawings, are scaled to 1:100. I therefore work in modelspace with Current object scale = 1, global scale factor = 100. This makes dashed lines etc reproduce at legible scale in a drawing at 1:100.
What about when I move on to details, which in paperspace are scaled to 1:5? At present I start a new file with Current object scale = 1, global scale factor = 5. This makes dashed lines etc reproduce at legible scale in a drawing at 1:5.
Isn't there a way to achieve this, while keeping both the schematic and the detail drawings in modelspace on the same, single file?
Even the above system fails when I want to scale one elevation of the schematics at 1:50, or foundation details at 1:10.
How to make a centered background scaled image/video in Edge Animate. Can't code, so I'm trying to use the properties panels.
1. Have the image centered in the middle of the stage 2. Have it scale to fill the screen always so there are no black bars (ie, I want a stage with only picture on it)
[URL]...
(This project is only aimed for iPad and above - desktop, so don't need mobile resolutions)
My work around is to do this via manual CSS, but there has to be a better way to keep it within the Edge compositiion
I also tried to import this Edge stage into Reflow after seeing this demo [URL]...
but just got blank screens : [URL].....
(I do like Reflow's ability to target specific resolutions but I don't quite need it for this project).
Using Civil 3D 2013Coordinates coming out of survey equipment are modified state plane GROUND (scaled up from the origin by the combined factor).Drawing is setup with state plane coordinate system with user defined transformation to establish geodetic reference and the ability to label lat/long or import Bing map data.Survey database is setup with "No Datum, No Projection" (data is already at ground, I don't want ot transformed).Import style is PNEZD and is set to use Northing/Easting not Grid Northing/Grid Easting.After importing points into survey database, coordinates of survey points match the CSV. This is good.After importing points from database to drawing, they are taken as grid coordinates, are scaled again and are off ~5,300 feet northeast.Why would Civil 3D assume the points in the database are grid and scale them when the import style used did not specify grid? Is there a setting or something I can do to tell Civil 3D to leave my coordinates alone?
I'm attempting to create a mini version of a product, I use the Derived Component button and scale the part down. Then I use Convert to Sheet Metal, set my sheet metal defaults, but then nothing happens when i try to create flat pattern. Is it even possible to derive a flat pattern from a scaled part?
I am having trouble resizing text boxes with text in them, so that the text scales with the box.If I convert the text box the curves, it messes up the formatting when I add an outline to the curve because the text box itself is given a outline.
We have detail drawings that contain horizontal and vertical dimensions. They're drawn at full scale in model space and saved as individual drawings. We then insert them as blocks onto a sheet in paper space, scaling them down to 1/2", 1/4" scale ETC.
Here's the problem - all the vertical dimension text appears bolder than everything else when scaled down. Horizontal text is just fine, diagonal text also looks a little bolder though.
