• Using "copy transform-effect" as a clipping mask

  1. I have a box shape, with effect of transformation applied on that copy the box 5 times horizontally.

  2. I want to use these 6 boxes as a clipping mask.

  3. How do I:

  (a) directly use this object as a clipping mask? None, as if that were possible. When I try it only uses the unique original as the mask box. The other 5 boxes disappear.

  (b) ' break' the shape of box object 6 separate boxes so that they are more "copies ghosts" but individual objects that I can then together to form a real clipping mask.

  This will allow you to do both A and b. Although for A you will need to then choose object > compound path > make before you create the clipping mask.

• How to create an object full of objects without the clipping masks

  Hello!

  I wanted to ask that I saw a lot of vectors on fotolia and shutterstock like this

  

  It is a typical example. world map with diamond. As you can see that there is no clipping mask, but all objects are in the perfect location. It is any script or any plugin or a tip or some way to easily create for these works.

  Thanks for any help in advance.

  You need the world map

  Then object > mosaic to create objects.

  Ungroup

  Remove all the white squares

  Their color randomly (there are scripts to achieve this on Wundes.com)

  Then object > transform > transform each: rotate 45 °

  Once again object > transform > transform each: scale and select a "random".

  Select some of them and change fill and stroke

  Select them all and reduce the opacity

• make an array of elements clipping mask

  Hello world

  I have a chart of the circles and I would like to make a photo show just circles. I know how to do this for a single photo (place the shape on the picture, then click on 'create clipping mask', but I can't do it for an array of forms. I tried to group circles or uniting through pathfinder, but that does not work either...

  Appreciate the help!

  Cult circles only then go to object > compound path > make

  Then select the image or images and circles, ensuring that the layout of the circles is on top, and then bring your clipping mask.

  When you use the United command if you read the ToolTip it also States that if you hold down the option key, it will create a compound shape then can also be used as a clipping mask as you desire. But you must hold down the option key while clicking on the icon of the unit.

• Automatically create clipping masks

  Hello

  I was watching this incredible video-

  https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=ebVFXphyJqw

  - and I noticed that the flash has a characteristic, which seems to automatically create clipping masks.

  She starts using the latter at 01:45. She draws the blue traces and apply gradients of forms that use the blue paths but also underlying art.

  I did find a quick way in illustrator to do it like that. (Trace the path - divide - livepaint - new filling can produce such results, but which is too complicated for fast frame...)

  There is also a right of the service earlier this year, where it clears the circular path segments. They are cut exactly at the points of intersection. Of course there are scissors and cutting in artificial intelligence, but flash method seems to offer looks a lot more convenient.

  Maybe these functions are buried in some side menus in artificial intelligence... I mean, I have Flash CS6, but I feel a lot more comfortable in artificial intelligence.

  If you know these features, especially the thing auto mask clipping, please tell me

  -Andrej

  Try to draw inside the mode in Illustrator.

  Regarding the cutting of access roads, try shapebuilder tool, it can also work with paths.

  Or the new tool join path (CC 20141)

  Or try the clever graphic plugin dynamic sketch

• Any PDF to AI > clipping masks different 1 million?

  I've been using have for about 10 years, and I meet this problem before but somehow did the trick around it. However, I would go to the bottom of him this time.

  First off this happened CS5, CS6, and CC.

  I imported a PDF file from a scanned plan thinking that I would make a few changes to line weight and color + graphics for a presentation, it is, but it is divided into a large NUMBER of different items within a clipping mask LOT different. This happens just to open a PDF file in artificial intelligence. Does anyone know why an imported PDF do that? Also, how is the best and fastest way to get it back in a few tracks. Example below.
  
  

  The PDF file is a raster image file. Each of these boxes is a single raster containing about 3 MB of data. You can use select all and then object > clipping mask > Release. You can use the object > rasterize to create a single frame of the entire file and try to use the Image path > stroke, but it will be a long-term task.

• Seamless pattern - using the images inlaid with clipping masks

  Hi forum,

  We struggle a little create a seemless repeating the pattern that includes the images integrated with cutting applied masks.

  Our model is a 550x550mm black square with various embedded inserted on top. All these images have the applied clipping mask to hide unwanted areas.

  These images are placed so that they create a pattern repeated seamless and that includes areas that overlap instead.

  Once we create a nuance of this model the repeatable area becomes too large because it contains unwanted areas hidden by the clipping masks.

  Because the reproducible area is now too large, it is actually not repetitive.

  We tried various things in order to solve this problem. Pathfinder/harvest to remove unwanted areas from images etc.

  None of them worked pretty well.

  We of livetracing just the images, but the complexity is not an option.

  Really we do our 'cut' in Photoshop or you know tricks of fantasy for problems of this kind?

  Appreaciate your insight

  Kenneth

  Kenneth,

  Try the destructive Act, with the selected clipping mask:

  (1) in the transparency palette/Panel drop-down list choose anything but Normal (Multiply is fine),

  (2) object > flatten transparency, just keep the defaults including 100% vector,.

  (3) thrill.

  This should reduce the size of the Clipping Path bounding box.

• Text fill or use a clipping mask, then using the knife tool

  Hey, new to the forum here, and I have a problem...

  I'm scanning my notes for a course in Earth science, and I use Illustrator CS5.

  I'm trying to do a simple text effect that leaves me perplexed.

  The text says "Earthquakes" (indeed, 24pt.)

  I like the texture of the text with a picture of sandstone.  I can do this.

  I would like in conjunction with the text in two with the knife tool.  I can do that, too.

  I can't for the life of me, what to cut the text in two after applying the clipping mask.

  No can I apply the texture (via a clipping mask) after having cut the text in two.

  I tried all kinds of different combinations, including doing some work in Photoshop, and still nothing works.

  I tried to create a plan (apparently essential to use the knife on the text tool), cut the text in two and then make the clipping mask, but that only gives me letters, invisible, which I can't seem to fill with the appropriate image.

  Anyone out there have any ideas?

  In the case where it is not clear, I want my text to be filled by a picture, then I would cut half in text (I prefer to use the knife tool, as it looks better with a curved cut)

  It's as simple as that, but I could not fall on a solution on my own.

  On a side note, I also spent on some tutorials for 'cutting text' is to draw a line through it, and then using fracture in the Pathfinder palette, but this guard send me errors.  Thoughts?

  First of all, there is no need to use a clipping for texture mask. Drag the photo in the "Swatches" Panel and then use the texture sample resulting to fill the text! Then, drag the text object texture in the symbols Panel. Now you can drag the 2 instances of the new symbol on the artboard and hide to create the look you are after. Using this method, your text remains editable and can be changed by editing the symbol.

  

• Objects of the library in Illustrator CC 2015 NOT clipping masks?

  The functionality of dynamic links in Illustrator CC 2015 library is cool. However, our internal wired kit includes a number of model objects that are used at best when they can be dragged and edited as a specific instance. The process was EASY on the iteration of 2014. Unfortunately, now, all the objects are nested inside the clipping masks, requiring at least 4 distinct steps to clean before they can be customized.

  Is this a bug? Can it be fixed?

  Thank you!

  Try to use the Opt (Alt) key when you drag.

• Apply the clipping on a group object mask

  Hello

  I have a background and I need to apply a clipping of a group object mask. I can't perform the task that it clips only one object in the group.

  I need to some tips and advice. Please see my screen shot shown below. Thank yor.

  

  David,

  To be more precise, you can, for a clipping mask,

  (1) create the object in the background to be cut;

  (2) create the clipping objects, such as 3 separate letters (or just three circles or other) and place them as you wish on top of the background object;

  (3) select all letters/objects and object > compound mask > make;

  ((4) ShiftClick the background object or ClickDrag on everything or Ctrl / Cmd + A to select the two 1) and 3) and

  Object > clipping mask > make.

  and an opacity mask.

  (1) create the object in the background to be cut;

  (2) create the masking objects as objects of filling/nostroke in black or white, such as 3 separate live/described letters (or just three circles or other) and place them as you wish on top of the background object;

  (3) select all letters/objects and Ctrl / Cmd + G to group them (with the letters, you can use Object > compound mask > do instead);

  ((4) ShiftClick the background object or ClickDrag on everything or Ctrl / Cmd + A to select the two 1) and 3) and

  Click transparency Launcher (click on the right arrow above) do with with Clip opacity mask and mask invert checked (black letters, mask Invert unchecked for white letters).

• 'Less before' a simple form on top a clipping mask complex

  I have a clipping path that consists of:

  1. a range complex vector shapes (a model) and

  2. a simple form on the top.

  My boss seems to be inside the simple shape, because of the clipping mask.

  Now, I would like to 'Punch out' a shape in the middle of my clipping path and have the Punch to be transparent. After having created my punch-out form, I drag to the same layer that has the clipping mask, select both (the clipping mask is in the form of punch-out) and select 'less before' window of pathfinder.

  It does not work.

  All opinions are appreciated.

  cattle,

  What happens if you give shape punch-out a fill white and no respect, then select the shape and the mask in the transparency palette dialog box and clipping check do with Clip opacity mask unticke and mask invert checked (you can also use black and have unchecked Invert mask)?

• can't Stroke object after a clipping mask? CS6

  Hello: Level: Beginner OS: Windows 7 64 bit Ps: CS6

  I have problems with a tutorial.

  He said to... Create a new layer and place it above the layer of "main object" (which has a clipping mask) and applies also the clipping mask

  Then I'm to Ctrl + click on the main object to select then right-click for menu, choose STROKE.

  However, when I right click on the new layer in the clipping mask the Stroke option is unavailable ~ is not when I click on the object itself on the

  canvas.

  So, I went in Edition > contour and tried to apply to the race in this way, but the race is not visible.

  I also tried to go to blending Options to apply the stroke, but it is not visible in this way or the other.

  I tried to search the manual for an answer and the FAQ but I can't seem to identify things.

  Thank you very much for your time and assistance

  Here is the tutorial, I'm following: photoshop http://designinstruct.com/drawing-illustration/how-to-create-an-ipad-2-from-scratch-using-/

  I'm stuck in step #1 ~ it's down a little bit after where I applied the noise

  You made sure that location in the dialogue of the race is "inside"?

  Because the layer is cut to the shape, the stroke must be within the form to be visible. 'Centre' will result in half outside of the width of the contour are invisible, and "Outside" will result in the entire race being invisible.

• Clip mask texture into several objects?

  Hello forumers.

  Im trying to clip mask this texture in these suddenly crashes, but it is not anythnig.i know it can be done with objects.but can be done with textures as well?

  

  What is texture? A layer, a layer of boss?

  Are the blocks a layer with transparency, a layer mask, a vector mask, or six different layers?

  Could you post a screenshot of the layers panel?

  "You can use the layer Style' Pattern Overlay", if the texture is a model.

  If it is a layer and the blocks are six different layers you could merge together (command-E) or convert to a smart object and cutting and then hide.

• Discecting an image using clipping masks

  Hello

  I created a vector object in rhino, I would use as a clipping mask to divide an image jpg in a lot of different parts, I don't want to block any part of the image only to divide it into several different sections that can each be manipulated individually, almost as if it was a giant of cut. I've read tutorials on using the tool of clipping with groups rather mask that to one of the objects, but whatever I do simply removes the part of the image I'm working the rest fair alone and not cut leaves. I'm pretty new to Illustrator then... uh, help.

  Thank you very much

  I do not know. You have not provided enough information. I have no idea of what size your raster image does not scale or size of the file. I don't know where you're going with this. Web site? Print? Flash? You'll just have to try and see.

  In any case, before you start, store the image embedded as a symbol and use Instances of symbols on the page. Symbols are stored in the file document only once. See the online help. But there may be other issues related to the size/space according to the specifications.
