I wonder if it's possible to achive an effect similar to repel text under but instead to put it inside an ellipse, for instanse with dynamic effect of decreasing the text size as the content text grows keeping it inscribed in ellipse.
I have a complex object (a plot with a bunch of text labels, etc.), and I want to stretch it horizontally or vertically without distorting text. I have an option to scale or not to scale strokes,. However, whatever I select here, the text always ends up distorted.
Is there a way to stretch it so that the text retains it's original shape?
How do I take like SHARKS text and place it inside the shape of a shark outline so the text takes the shape of the shark shape then I remove the outline shape and the letters stay the shape of the shark outline.
I have this strange situation.. i use the Arial font inside my cad drawings and when i print my paperspace layout, the text inside the viewport is a little bit more "bold" then the text i put directly on paper space.
Maybe it's a trick to know what text is placed where, but i want all this to be uniform, same thickness. Is there a system variable to correct that issue?
See the image below: It's a 400 DPI scan from an impression i did.
Up to COUPE C1 is the text inside the viewport, under COUPE C1is the paperspace text. Both are the same height... but difference tickness.
Is this a feature or a bug?If you make an object (vector or bitmap) 100% transparent, a Repel Text Under setting is ignored. You can take it upto 99.5% transparent.(I wanted to move some text to reflect the position of a shape on a different layer.)
If I create a text object, then copy and duplicate, how do make the width of the duplicate text smaller whilst maintaining the length of the object. I have worked out that I can use borders around text to create a smaller version however the effect is not suffice.
Effectively what I want to achieve is the 'feather' effect that reduces the width but retain the overall shape and dimension without any distortions.
I am in the course of evaluating Xara, and it has a lot of good things going for it compared to Adobe, particularly in combining many of the features of ID and AI. The graduated color screening on objects is way better than AI.
However, I cannot find how to copy an object or text block and paste multiples at specific intervals. Both Pagemaker and InDesign have this feature, so I can't believe Xara overlooked it, as it is particularly useful when laying out say business cards 12 up on a sheet for printing. Yes, I have done a search on this forum and also studied Xara help files.
As you can see from the screenshot below, after checking the "Shape Dynamics", I still can't change anything about "Size Jitter", nor can I change "Roundness Jitter", as they already become grey and not draggable or clickable.
my drawing tablet can't be pressure-sensitive in Photoshop CS6 64bit, but it can be pressure-sensitive in Photoshop CS6 32 bit and other applications.
Is this problem relevant to my tablet driver or to my Photoshop installation? I am hesitated to reinstall my Photoshop because the whole Master Collection takes quite a long time to complete installation.
1) Create a solid block of colour at an integer coordinate (say 0,0).
2) Make it an integer width and height (say 128 x 128)
3) Export
4) Choose '.png' (or '.jpg' - the same effect will manifest)
5) Zoom into the preview and see the weird discoloured edges produced
Alternatively, do the same thing with 'Create Bitmap Copy' and observe the same results.
I'm aware that if you have non-integer sizes/positions it anti-aliases, but this isn't supposed to happen if you rectify these.
[Edit: I think I found out what it was: on my Pro version, I have the option to minimise anti-aliasing, which might well be the issue. Oddly, I can't reproduce the problem at all on my Pro version, but only on my brother's demo version!]
I create a square, 300px by 300px. I duplicate the square, resize to 200px by 200px. Highlight both, press Ctrl-F4 and remove the inside box. What I have left looks like a picture frame. Is there a way to shadow the inside area? (the part I cut out)
When I add an outline to a shape, it always seems to build itself from the center of the line. Can I set my outline (line as opposed to fill) to be outside, middle, or inside my shape?
Text is allowed only on the outside of a rectangle shape. The text cursor disappears when I try to enter it into the rectangle and when I place it on the edge of the rectangle, it rurns into a slanted "A" and allows texting on the border of the rectangle. Corel Paint Shop Photo Pro X3 (build date Sept 7, 2010). This software came with my new HP Pavilion dv7.
I have designed a C# application to To Print I Cards Of School. Here I am sending data from my application to a CDR FILE (Already Created ) Which Contains ADDRESS Text Field..Now I Need to Print Address(which contains 60 characters or more) on this Text field .
I Have Used The following c# Code.. To Replace Address text field that contains text 'Address '.....
s.Text.Replace('Address',"Text To be replaced .......")...here s is Active shape...
This Works Fine But How can i WRAP TEXT....of Address field.
There are many examples of creating rectangular patterns, but not many, if any, of interrogating existing patterns.I have attached the files and a screenshot of a rectangular part inside an assembly. The part contains a rectangular pattern of holes and workplanes.how do I get hold of each proxy of the workplane in the pattern?In other words I don't know what to put in the for loop at the end of this code fragment:
If _invApp.Documents.Count = 0 Then MsgBox("Need to open an the assembly document") ReturnEnd If If _invApp.ActiveDocument.DocumentType <> DocumentTypeEnum.kAssemblyDocumentObject Then MsgBox("Need to have an Assembly document active") ReturnEnd If Dim asmDoc As Assembly Document asmDoc = _invApp.ActiveDocument Dim asmDef As AssemblyComponentDefinition asmDef = asmDoc.ComponentDefinition im occurrences As ComponentOccurrencesoccurrences. [code]....
How would I put smaller objects inside a 3D object? I made a tube and wanted to fill it with little spheres. How to put the objects inside and shade them to look like they're in there.
Okay I have been a avid user of Photoshop for years and I mean well over 10 years now. And I thought why not try something new, plus I saw something that GIMP could do that Photoshop couldn't so I went ahead a downloaded the program, but since I am so used to Photoshop I sort of expected GIMP to be almost the same as Photoshop and well it isn't. (Don't judge me now) so I have a few questions on certain things.
1: How do you select an object inside the layer, with PS you can just ctrl click in the window and poof it's there around your selected item, But GIMP doesn't do that so how do you do that in GIMP?
2: When using the circle tool, I get this green box thing around the whatever it's called and I don't see any marching ants. What am I doing wrong and how do I get that to go away if it's possible?
3: where is the crop tool? What does it look like?
4: How come some of the options for the brushes won't allow you the change them? like for instance, if I go to windows>brushes and double click on any of the brushes another window pops open and it says: Brush editor read only. What does that mean? You can't make any of the brushes in spatter brushes?
I have inside every text,Mtext contents different text style like Arial_1 , Arial_2.
How i can give all the contents inside one style ? the normal procedure i will enter inside text to enter editing mode and changing text format style one by one. I want it once.
I want to save my routing of entering every text to change its content text style.
(Notice:select all from outside without editing mode will not do the job)
I am often using text within AutoCAD 2012. Here is what I do, look at the attachments:
1. Create the text using the mtext tool 2. Explode the text using the txtexp tool
But, when I explode the text, lines appear inside the text like in the image. I then have to explode the whole thing and delete these lines manually. Any tool or add-on to get around this annoyance every time I insert text.
I have a simple 3d object animation - it rotates over 1 second. The movie has 1 second. When played, it rotates in a loop.
I've converted the 3d layer into a smart object. The smart object animation timeline has 5 seconds, but the nested 3d object rotates only once and then stops. How to make the internal 3d animation loop inside the smart object?
I have a closed object and a line outside this object. I want to take anypoint on this polyline as a reference and check whether that point is lying inside the closed object or outside.
so im drawing a 3d object in an isometric view. it is a 3d extruded object. essentially it is an extruded decagonal tube. i have, at the bottom, a line marking the center of the decagon so i can snap to it, draw a decagon for the base, and extrude it. problem is, i go to draw the decagon (or anything, for that matter), and i cant snap to the inside of the solid. autocad will only let me select the face of the object. is this a setting i can uncheck, or do i have to change the way i am drawing this?
My goal is to be able to store any object type (mainly an image jpg/bmp) inside a part that is not accessable through the normal user interface to be used with my addin.
I have been searching around and it seems like GetPrivateStream is the way to go.
Any working example of GetPrivateStream in vb.net and confirm if it actually stores the data inside the part.
I can't find a solution anywhere or any decent referencing material for this. If there is a better method of achieving this?
I created a square in which I have to draw vertical lines in it. I want the first line to start at 2.5 cm from the left segment of the square.
In a different way to say it just to be clear enough, I want to align the segment (inside the square) from the left vertical line of the square, put 2.5 cm to the right, and then there's my line.
When I try to align it using the align tool, I use the square as a key object. But it select ALL the square, so it puts my line 2.5 cm but to the far right of the square, outside my artwork. I'd want to select only the left line of the square.
Would you have a solution to accessing ODTables for a dwg object only loaded into memory? I have 1000+ dwgs that I want to return a string with the names of the various ODTable names for auding purposes that I would prefer to just side load rather than full load for performance reasons.
I'm attempting to use something like this (which works fine on an open drawing):
Public Function ReturnOBJData(acObjIDIn As ObjectId, intOffset As Integer) As String 'Don't forget that table is 0 based offset so....plan accordingly Dim strRet As String = "" Dim acDoc As Document = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument Dim acDb As Database = acDoc.Database Dim acEd As Editor = acDoc.Editor [Code] .......
In a fashion along the lines of
Public Function GetTables(strFileIn As String) As List(Of String) Dim lstReturn As New List(Of String) Dim acMapApp As MapApplication = HostMapApplicationServices.Application Dim acActiveProject As Project.ProjectModel = acMapApp.ActiveProject Dim acTableList As Tables = acActiveProject.ODTables Dim acTable As ObjectData.Table
[Code] ....
The problem is that I can't seem to link the ODTables object off of the memory database object. In this sample, the msgbox always returns a count of 0 where I would expect it to be in the range of 1-4.
I need to have an animated glowing object that is inside a clear raytraced glass jar. The jar blocks the glow out. I have encountered this before and I can't remember how to fix it.
