Add points at the end of the path

Just learn how to use paths... one question eludes me. If I'm working on a path, adding a number of points, then do something else (e.g. Select another tool)... How can I return to this path and add points after the final point? I know that I can use the "Add an anchor point" tool to add points in the middle of the existing path, but how can I extend the path beyond the last point? !!

If you Ctrl + click with the pen (to change Direct Selection tool temporarily) stop the path, it will be disabled, and the cursor turns into a pen with a star.

Move the cursor to the end, and it will change the cursor "connect". Click on it will change the cursor to 'Awaken', and you will see 'Pick-up Path' appear in the history panel. You can now add your points.

  • When you add points on the path with the pen tool, it will always add handles almost anything?

    I'm stumped... I have used several times before the tool pen without problem. I use Wacom Intuos... but have also disconnected and used touch pad and the same thing happens... I want to add a track with the tool point pen to move and create a perfect angle and no matter what I do the pen creates the point with handles and, of course, with handles, it becomes very difficult to create and move a corners with the direct Selection tool... It certainly could be Windows or some other internal force creating the problem... I have three versions of Photoshop installed on my Alienware... Photoshop 6, CC2014 and CC2015.5.1 and it happens in all versions of three... If I'm a fool for lack of something obvious please let me know... If it's something I'm missing or have forgotten that I'd appreciate any help I can get... Peace and thanks

    The default behavior is. I just hold down the alt/opt and then convert the point at a point without handles.

  • Unable to set the anchor points of the path when the keyframes turned on...

    I have a layer of irregular shape who I am deformation over time (from smallest to largest). I am able to set the anchor points of the path to the forms I want, but once I put two keyframes for the path I'm interpolating a slide, I'm more able to set the anchor points for minor changes, for example, I am unable to draw the Bézier handles. If I disable keyframes, then I am allowed to adjust the anchor again, but that means I have to start whenever I need to make an adjustment. I have run successfully the concept but need to change several layers of form in this way, and not having is not access to the Bézier handles point of anchorage slows productivity.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance,

    Sorry, I missed the rather obscure reference to an expression in the first post you. Had, I had to pay more attention I'd say disable the expression to change the path, and then select. Not being able to select a top with the marks of perfectly logical on expression because it is turned on with the full path is selected by the expression of all time. This is how work expressions. This seems to be a lot of trouble to go just to change the "timing" of a couple of keyframes.

  • Add points to the block of text, possible?

    Is it possible to add a point to a block of text with a script?

    Before:

    Before.GIF

    After:

    After.GIF

    Sure. A text block is a geometric shape than any other; in InDesign, it is just a rectangle.

    All geometric shapes in InDesign consist of one or more paths - all have a property "paths" as a table. Each path contains a pathPoints array and is what you would use to add a corner.

    Because you can not really sure what is the lower right corner, this script does not immediately change the pathPoints. Rather, it copies the path, trying to find the corner (not sure if it is 'the way'), adds two points after that and these points moves to the Insert.

    myRect = app.selection[0];
    myPath = myRect.paths[0];
    myPathPoints = myPath.entirePath;
    // Determine lower right -- not sure if it's always the same!
    corner = 0;
    for (a=1; a myPathPoints[corner][0])
      corner = a;
     if (myPathPoints[a][1] > myPathPoints[corner][1])
      corner = a;
    }
    // Add two point 'after' corner
    // Use old corner point as model
    p1 = [myPathPoints[corner][0], myPathPoints[corner][1]];
    p2 = [myPathPoints[corner][0], myPathPoints[corner][1]];
    myPathPoints.splice (corner+1,0, p1, p2);
    // Move x of original corner point
    myPathPoints[corner][0] -= 5;
    // Move x and y of new angle point
    p1[0] -= 5;
    p1[1] -= 5;
    // Move y of back-to-frame point
    p2[1] -= 5;
    // Put modified path back into object
    myPath.entirePath = myPathPoints;

  • Adding new point to existing path which is NOT on the path

    I need to add a new point to a path that is not on the way, that I am trying to add.  In other words, I am trying to extend a line in a given direction, do not add a new point in the middle of an existing line.  I created the path using the pen tool, then I've done something else with another tool and then returned on my road.  I add_ _can a new point using the pen to click somewhere on the existing path, but this isn't what I want.  I want to add a new point on the way to extend the line (I use STROKE with no fill to create a line) in a certain direction.  No combination of keys I've tried seems to allow After Effects insists on creating a new, separate, Lane which is not what I need.  Any help appreciated, thx!

    1. Select the layer with the open path
    2. Select the tool pen (keyboard shortcut g)
    3. You hover over the path the cursor turns into a small black arrow
    4. Click on the vertex at each end of your open path
    5. The cursor now changes behind the pen tool
    6. Click anywhere to add another point on the path

    The trick is to not having all vertices in the path selected when you start

  • Add the path to a certain vector mask

    Hey all lovers of the PS/CS,.

    Of course, my question is something that needs to happen a lot and a lot. I just created a vector mask on my bed, and then I went straight by making a path for him. But I did not notice that the mask was not selected... So my path removes nothing of my original layer! It's just a way of hanging around - and it disappears when I select the mask or another layer.

    So, how preserve this path and it adds perhaps the vector mask, it was initially intended to? Thanks in advance.

    Charles

    To bring together the two paths

    If they are not on the same layer plicque in the tracks Panel, select copy and paste it into the other.

    Select the pen tool and hold down the CTRL (Cmd) key to temporarily select the direct Selection tool and drag on the outline of one of the paths.  Release the Ctrl key to return to the pen tool and add a point on the path, and then delete this point.  This creates a break in the path.

    Do the same thing to the other segment of the path.  Place the cursor on the end of one of the broken paths until you see the icon string (2nd in the table below) and add a point.  Place the cursor on one of the ends broken the other way and repeat.  Repeat for the other two endpoints.

    Add, delete, change the path to what you want. Job done.

  • Adding points to the adjustment layer curves in PsCS6 broken?

    In CS3, CS4, and CS5, I was able to:

    b add a point (corresponding to the position of the eyedropper on the image) by Ctrl + click RGB composite curve; and

    b add a point (while wearing on the RGB composite curve) to each of the curves by Ctrl + Shift + click on channel red, green and blue.

    No approach seems to work in my CS6 (PsCs6 x 64 last updated, in Win 7 x 64).

    Is a kind soul able to tell me the correct key combination to achieve the desired result, or is there really a problem with CS6?

    Post edited by: hienromaric

    It should be documented here:

    https://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop/using/curves-adjustment.html

    Most of the above is the on image setting target adjustment (tool) must be enabled

    (the hand symbol with arrows in the properties panel)

    then you click on the image (no modifier key) to add a point to the composite line and Ctrl + Shift to add points to the red, green and blue channels.

  • How to extend (i.e. add more points at the end of) a Bézier path?

    What is the best way to make a trace of Bézier longer by adding more points at the end? I can do it by moving the end point to the location where I the new endpoint using the direct Selection tool, and then using the Add Point to replace the old end point and then add the new points I want between the former end point and the new endpoint. But it's very tedious surely there must be a better way. I just want to keep adding points as I did when I was creating the path in the first place.

    I use CS2, so I need a technique that works with this version.

    Thanks – Rowan

    I think that's what you're looking for.

    With you deselected Bézier open, select the pen tool. With the selected pen tool, it will have an 'x' next to it. Pass the tool back on the endpoint and it will turn to a ' / '. Click on the endpoint and start earning new line segments.

    Good luck

  • How do the points of end of a path?

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows how to change the points of termination (or revese them).

    To give you an idea what I'm talking about, take a look at this image:

    http://imgur.com/xaIzx

    You can see that the spiral of the coils down to the point of departure for what it gets folded under itself as it turns.

    How could spend endpoints so that it runs to the bottom of what is now labeled as the endpoint instead?

    Or I guess you could say, how can I do coil upward from the starting point?

    Thank you very much

    With the pen tool, simply click on the end, you want to be the "end". The path with market back if necessary.

    Illustrator could use a simple menu to reverse the direction of the route, however.

  • How to align brushes to race on the path from the end of a path?

    Hello

    I came a way with no fill and a stroke. I copied this path in place and made a "brush-arrow" as you can see in the image below.  This allows me to get a look which tables my tip of arrow through the entire path.  My problem is that when I started the path (not view in image), the brush applies the first brush 'tip of arrow"(that I created) at the beginning of my career.  As you can see, the end of the path seems not so nice because the arrowhead brush ends not uniformly based on the different distances from each path. I wish that my ways end by an arrowhead, while still having that look "table."


    In simple terms, is there a way that I can dictate what my way (end point or starting point) end my brush "tip of arrow" starts from?


    Thank you very much

    Stroke brush 1.jpg

    To add to Mike's suggestions, here are a few ideas:

    • Save your appearance as a 'Style' for easy reuse.
    • A 'Brush of Art' to assign an arrow end of your line (see the screen image). This can be a more direct way to make sure that the arrows on the table matches the arrow on the end.
    • By assigning "shades" brush "colorization method", you can assign any color to every aspect of the race.

  • "the local site folder" field adds------and emits the error that / is not a valid path component

    Attempt to create a new Site, new service Site guest fields for the Site name and Site Local folder.  However, the first time I filled these fields I ended up accidentally a URL with the-character.  Now, whenever I try to fill these fields with the correct URL the DW application adds that-until the end of the field Site Local file and then issues an error message / (Yes, not the same character) is not a valid path component.  I deleted the WinFileCache*.dat file, deleted Internet Explorer saved files and restarted the computer, but the error persists.  Any ideas short of reinstalling DW?

    First of all, I would like to back in Nancy on (almost) all aspects of DreamWeaver! She has the knowledge and experience that I can only aspire to.

    But let me remind you that it is useless to "Set" your sites in order to use DW! DreamWeaver works just plain file with the previous folder/file structure of your machines operating system.

    At one point, I got maybe about 20 active sites running and I use DW to edit and update ALL the. I defined sites... ZERO!

    OK, I'm out of the closet! I am a user of non-traditional DW!

    As I use it, I don't really know the benefits of 'set' a site. Everything that DW can do by defining a site can also be done otherwise.

    So please don't feel that just because you have problems, define a site, that DW can work for you.

    DW can open and edit files on any drive on your computer. DW can bind to any other file on your computer with the "Point to File" function in the properties panel (images, Web pages, etc.).

    And for the FTP, I suggest you a true FTP program, such as Filezilla or SmartFTP... stronger and more versatile than the built in FTP of DW!

    So if for some reason, you feel that you need to "Set" your sites... go!

    But also realize that the 'Definition' of a site is not required to take advantage of the majority of the DW.
