Art 'automatic '.

Is there a way to create "automatic things" (do not know how to name it, hah) as beams in this photo, where I could determine how much 'beams' it would be, etc?

I ask this because if I would do it by hand, it would be very inaccurate.

Is this possible in Illustrator or any other Adobe program?

Thanks for your suggestions

This kind of "beams" radial design, it's a pretty simple problem and a recurring topic in this forum. A search should turn multiple threads containing various methods.

Your more general question of 'automation' (which I read as "repeat" or "iterative"), we can generalize the possibilities in three categories:

Features

Illustrator has several features that provide a measure of the iterative design:

Transform again (Ctrl-D; rehearsals used the last transformation.) Some transformations with a copy option, you use this shortcut allows you to make one-at-a-time step - and repeat iterations.)

The transformative effect (can create repetitive of transformed copies of an object)

Mixtures (creates "tweens" from key objects)

PatternBrushes (repeats an object on a path)

Symbols (creates instances, so that a change affects a lot)

Actions

Feature of Illustrator to save, store and replaying "macros". Limited to most of the functions/commands in the standard user interface.

Scripts

Allows you a little "under the hood" to automate the basic functions of the program at a more fundamental level (ex: creation of paths, point by point). By linking a series of these commands in the form of a script (in syntax from Applescript, Javascript or Visual Basic), you can actually create your own "features" that are not part of the standard user interface. Rather tedious and requires a knowledge of one of the three supported scripting languages.

  • Beginner with problems.

    Hello everyone. I just got my sansa fuze today and I'm already having problems. I searched the web, but couldn't find any soultions my specific problems at the moment. so hopefully someone here can help.

    OK... first of all, I can't find the album art on my rocket. I used windows media player 11 and windows vista, I think, to rip all my CD's on and to transfer or 'sync' all the music on my rocket. WMP detects the album art automatically, but there is nothing on the "rocket". How to do it?

    Secondly, I evaluated most of my music (five stars) on media player and once more, the songs are not rated at all on the "rocket" itself. How can I solve this problem?

    and finally, just out of curiosity, what are the different modes of the "rocket" may be in?... that's to say, MPT and eerrr... what else? What do actually mean? I have read on different threads that this can sometimes make the difference in whether or not the album art can be transferred to the "rocket" etc...

    I don't really have any idea of most of this stuff. I would be grateful if someone can help me please. Thank you very much.

    Thanks for your reply. However, it turns out that I just had to pass the "rocket" MTP mode, then I formatted the drive and it automatically transferred all of the album art and the notes of the song when I have syncd pictures again! I think I had it in mode MSC to download the update of the firmware. But anyway... problem solved. Cheers.

  • How can I automate the process of replacing these. PNG in my art?

    I have a very large project, that I'm in the middle and it becomes very painful to have to do these one by one.

    SAMPLE.jpg

    I've already sorted 'go - to'.psd I copied and pasted into all subdirectories of name-based. Now, it's just a matter to recreate with the insignia of various clans and tartan as well as their name. First of all, I was wondering if there is a way to bulk to replace the badge 'clan '. PNG is even if they are all named differently by their clan.

    If this is possible then it is perhaps possible to replace the tartan aswell?

    What is the name, I have files delimited by tabs that crank out every spelling of the name clans individual once the main file has undergone all the work described above. I.O. If the clan has a common spelling of 'Auchinleck' but also goes by, file in step finals Affleck, Auchinlech, Aachnaleck, Auchinlick, then these will all be taken care of with the tab -delimited.

  • Cannot manually add album art

    I just got a new computer and installed the latest version of iTunes for Windows. I added my music library without any problems and was pleased to see that album art has been updated automatically but on the few remaining albums who had not added automatically work I am unable to do it manually (click with the right button on album > info > work). Art seems to have been added but when I hit "ok" and return to iTunes there is no change, it still shows the grey double quaver.

    I've done several times before and had no problems.

  • Best art / image editing / photo App?

    Hello

    I bought a Macbook Pro (i7/16 GB/512Ram) about a month ago and it will use for a photo editing and a work of art (as well as email, youtube and the usual stuff).

    As support for opening has now stopped and I don't subscribe to "Photoshop Creative Cloud", I was wondering if there is a good alternative?

    Affinity Photo looks interesting and promising (and is only £40 / $60), but I donnt know how well or otherwise it is to organize files and collections.

    I think Lightroom (or what they call Photoshop-Lightroom) is always available as a "buy it and confess" App to about £104 / $149.    It is essentially Lightroom or Photoshop and Lightroom combined?   Confused.

    Personally I do not like Apple Photo, the new photo on Mac management tool.   I would prefer something that automatically looks for all the photos stored on the computer rather than having to import them and it's editing capabilities are weak.

    As I do a mixture of (pixel based rather than vector) art / illustration and photo editing, I was wondering what is the best option?

    Thank you

    Photo of the affinity has no organizational capacity. It's just one editor

    Lightroom is a standalone application, it isn't photoshop as well. On subscription, you can get both for $10 per month or similar. LR is an organizer, but also a non-destructive processor. This is the most common replacement for aperture. It is a processor of many more capable, though my experience pretty slow and so I'm in the treatment of the migration to

    Capture One, next alternative to the opening. So far, so better.

    There is no serious photo app that "looks like for all photos", all non-destructive processors are built on databases and require only the imported data.

  • List album art lost coin

    Reloading XP auto updates installed WMP 9 (I guess I was on v8) who has lost all my art of the album from the playlist and half of my music. I can't find a way to get it back either. Any ideas?

    Hi eddie b
    Thanks for the reply
    Turns out I'm a "retarded" even more than I thought. I should get it that reinstalling XP would move me back to an earlier version of the player than the automatic updates had taken me at the time I had run it.
    Finally after several days of re-update itself MP itself shifted in version 11 and to the high jump my album art... I never had the chance to try your solution but thanks anyway. Probably this would have worked if I had a chance to try it but...
    "Neanderthal computerman" return his images still.

    How to create a document and insert the words and/or art on both sides of the page

    How to create a document and insert the words and/or art on both sides of the page

    You create a document by using an application of word processor like Microsoft Word or Corel WordPerfect or OpenOffice Writer.  Think of it as a broad a page roll.

    When you print the document, you can print all pages of the document on one sheet of paper (the normal default value), or you can print on both sides of a sheet of paper.

    Some printers are capable of automatic double-sided printing.  With others, you print all the odd pages and then take the stack of paper, turn upside down and put it back into the printer to print all pages.  You need either to read your printer manual, or experiment a bit to determine if you need to re - organize the first last pages before printing the second side.

  • Album art with WMP 12

    Hi - I'm new and really confused!

    Is it possible for someone to explain VERY SIMPLY how to get album art of WMP12 in "rocket"? She shows in WMP, but does not appear automatically when you synchronize on. A simple step by step guide would be great!

    Thanks in anticipation...

    Thank you - I have no problem with the album art on WMP12, I want just sync it to the "rocket" so that when I drag an album in the sync list, and then on 'Start Sync' art is located on the "rocket". I don't know why, I'm having problems with this? I'm new in the world of MP3 files so step by step instructions would be very welcome.

    So, to sum up, it becomes the art on the "rocket" simply when I sync.

    Just a theory, but USB mode, you are in? I think that if you see the art on WMP, but it syncs, that maybe MTP mode would bring art. I do not use WMP12 with my Win7, I prefer Mediamonkey... but I think that might help.

  • Album art?

    I can't figure out how to get my Sansa Fuze to display the album art associated with certain songs. On Rhapsody, in my library, the work of corret appears when I select a song to play, even when I play the Sansa directly when connected to my PC. But when you use the portable Sansa, no album appears so when listening to songs. How can I fix it? Thank you.

    Squire-

    If you download the files from the Rhapsody with the R4 client, the album art is automatically transferred to your device (in MTP mode at least).  Well, it will in theory.  I had problems with imported CDs and some transfers of album showing album art in the client, but not on the "rocket".

    What happens in the R4 client, is that it takes the art of the database online instead of watching the device files.  If you import into the library of your PC, you can have a look at data from ID3 tag including album art, and you can edit it from there.  To use the Rhapsody 4 Editor, open the client, then select 'my library '.  If you right click on a track, you can use the editor.

    To work on all the tracks of an album, simply open the window of the left border of the pane in my library by clicking on the button in the left edge.  Selection of the album for your view.  Scroll to the album, and right click.  Rhapsody will ask if you want to "modify several tracks", which is our choice, otherwise, the album art will show for a track only.

    The tricky part is that you must delete the file existing in your Sansa, then transfer back the version of the Rhapsody to your rocket when finished.

    There is a cool video available that shows the proven mode MSC or MTP, manual method to add album art, if you want to do it this way.  Check it out SanDisk how-to Videos.

    Alternatively, try something very nice indeed, MP3Tag.  I found that this application is the best thing since the pretranches pickle dill to solve the problems of ID3 tag and album art.  You can use MP3Tag to automatically export the file folder.jpg or album art.jpg necessary to the tag embedded in the album folder, without having to search the Internet art or clip.

    If Rhapsody album art, MP3Tag zorches makes a happy Sansa.

    Indeed, on this thought, if something zorches album art, this application is great.  You can set it to write your ID3 tags in the right format to ID3v2.3 ISO 8859-1, well that is automatic through the Rhapsody client.

  • Windows Media Player-how delete the audio files in the WMP library and add album art

    How can I get rid of dublicate on WMP songs? How can I get all the cover art?

    To make WMP automatically look for the cover, make sure retrieve additional information from the Internet are checked in Tools - Options - Library (press Ctrl + M, if you don't see the Tools menu). The only add missing information option is recommended.

    Regarding duplicates, I suggest that you try to reset the media library. Note firstly reset the library will make you lose all play counts and ratings too. Then, follow these steps:

    -Restart the PC.
    -Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service. If its status is started, double-click on the service and click on stop.
    -Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
    -In this file, rename the old Media Player like Media Player folder. If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.
    -Launch WMP, your library will have been reset and will be rebuilt. Check if the problem persists.
