Convert the path of negative to positive

"Auto add/delete" function of my tool pen has stopped working (CS3), so I have to manually switch positive (add to the path) to the negative terminal (subtraction way) when working with the tool pen in order to make transparent traces.

I just spent an hour describing a thing to realize that the path is a negative path, so instead of choosing what I choose, I chose instead what I should delete.

Make a selection from the path and reversing lead too sloppy to a path to a new path in this way.

Is there a way to convert an existing path to a 'negative' way to a path of "positive"?

First, reset the pen tool with a right click on the tool icon in the options bar (just above the toolbar in the workspace to the default PS). You should be able to modify the path by using the direct Selection tool (black arrow), selection of the path and then by changing the form options in the options bar.

  • convert the data-> layer mask vertex position position

    I have 2 videos (A; (B) whose corresponding value of markers, I need to distort the video so the position of the markers would correspond to the position of the corresponding markers in video B.

    Yes, as David said, with local Tracker2Mask mode, you can move individual points mask with track points of the tracker item AE.

  • Convert a path in the shape of a mask path

    It is a question that has been requested before, but as far as I know, has not received a satisfactory answer.

    So I have a rectangle that I made in a shape layer, and I want to it by using the effect of the race, because I need the form to scale, and I found that the scales from the standard race in a shape layer when you turn the STROKE layer

    But with him being a shape path and a parametric shape path that I can't copy/paste this shape as a mask.

    At this point, @Todd_Kopriva

    usually appears to copy and paste the following text:



    "command to convert a path of the parametric form of a Bezier curve layer:

    You can convert a path of a Bézier path after the path has already been created by context-click (right-click or control-click on Mac OS) the Group of properties for the path (for example, the Rectangle drawn 1) and choosing convert Bézier path command in the context menu. If the path is animated (retouching), converted Bézier path is a static path based on the way at the present time; keyframes are lost. »

    Who indeed converts the path, as far as I can see, but unfortunately this does not seem to help me pass this way in a mask layer

    Any ideas?


    PS someone else has a really weird problem with this forum where you will write a response and everything suddenly find your cursor/Carat jumped a few lines and you type half an answer at the end of a previous line?

    I went through this dozens of times on this forum. To be successful, you need to set a keyframe. Here goes:

    1. Select your shape (Rectangle 1) and right click and select Convert to Bezier path
    2. Open the Rectangle 1 path and set a keyframe
    3. Copy
    4. Select the layer that you want to add a mask of
    5. Choose the pen tool
    6. Click anywhere on the layer to set the first vertex
    7. If you try to put a mask on a shape layer, you must reset the pen tool to create a mask instead of a new form, before setting the first vertex
    8. Dough

    That's all. Works every time. The only problem is that the layer you add the mask must be posted on the default transformation and the shape layer, that you have copied from must also be to default transformations. That and everything works every time.

  • Convert a path in line/STROKE/pencil?

    Need help with the railways... I use the tool pen to create a path, having created and close my path I want to convert the path of line weighted about 6 pixels in green.

    I tried to convert in road fill and draw the path, but these options allow me to set a width in pixels of the path.

    Probably miss me something very simple, but tips are welcome.

    Thank you, Rob.

    Trace the path will use everything you have your current brush or pencil value. Then, choose the color and width before tracing path.

    Keep in mind Photoshop do not caress the paths as an Illustrator.

  • Help compare the negative and positive values

    Well guys, I do this example to show you what I mean

    With this example, I can get positive and negative numbers in digital

    But for me, the 'negative' mean nothing

    Example:

    If I have "100-200" for me the biggest value is - 200

    But if I compare the values of bouth got 100 as greater value

    I do the same calc for 3 different variables such as A, B, C

    and after that I need to calc whose value is 'more '.

    But my problem is that if I have the values "-350 300-400.

    the largest will be "300", but for me the 'negative' mean nothing

    so I need to the largest value is "-400".

    For all positive values, its works very well!

    I compare A and B, after the highest is on C and have a result!

    but when I have negative and positive values... I had this problem...

    and when I have negative values only I have a problem too.

    '-300-400-500' for me the largest value must be "-500" but labview-watch "300".

    as - 300 is greater than-500 in algebriac.

    And if I use absolute values, I will always have a positive value... but I need to know if the value is positive or negative

    No matter which, can help me with this?

  • How to convert the compound path to simple way barred?

    New animation SVG here and you would appreciate the help.

    I exported an SVG graphic logo to facilitate the animation of lines in the logo. In short, I'm trying to make these lines 'draw' sequentially.

    After you import the SVG object in the browser, I realize the path data to describe complex shapes, rather than a simple path with a vascular accident brain. For example, straight lines appear as a path around the outside edge of the line, a rectangle. See the part of the image below showing the anchor around the edge of the line.

    While I could very well be wrong, it seems that I need to make these lines in the draw of logo is given simple way, with the width of the line determined by a stroke. Does anyone know how I could convert/export what I need to give me what I need?

    Thank you!

    Joseph,

    Simple/no tracks transparent FO, you can do the following:

    1) switch from fill to line in the Toolbox (in you first picture you have completed and no stroke);

    (2) ShiftClick each of the segments of both ends with the direct Selection tool and then tap on delete.

    This will give you two simple traces to the mixture;

    (3) object > mix > blend Options, not specified the value 1, then object > mix > do, then object > mix > Expand, then Ctrl / Cmd + Shift + group to ungroup, and then delete the traces of origin;

    (3) select the new path and him giving the desired weight of stroke (half of the difference in width for traces of origin).

  • How to convert containers of Type area in the path of

    Accidentally, I converted a tinted path (custom shape with several anchor points) to a container of type box, and he did not notice until this day. Is there a way to convert this back to plain ole filled way. I tried to reduce the basic look, I tried to have add filled a new filling, but because that HAVE it think it's a container of type all the background and contour attributes are ignored. I even tried the adaptation layer and make a clipping from one path to retrieve the path, but it wouldn't let me. It seems to be very easy to make in the areas of type forms but not the other way around.

    Thank you

    Brad

    If you use the group selection (the white arrow with alt/option key), it will allow you to select only the part of the text container path.  You can then copy and paste in front.

  • convert the output of a new effect path?

    Hi all.

    So, I take a square, and then I ask a contraction and inflate it, allowing this form of interesting shamrock. Road access remains the same, as a square, but the output vector is modified by the effect in the said shamrock.

    My question is this - how to do the effect directly to the path. In the example above, the blue path would be under the shamrock pleasure.

    http://I35.Photobucket.com/albums/D188/OphidianShenzi/01.jpg

    Often I will edit a shape with multiple effects, for example. first I'll inflate it, then I'll apply some sort of string. It would be very useful to be able to perform the path directly to all stages of the process of effects, because when you have a shape that is veiled strongly and you try and change the area distorted you get a big surprise.

    Suggestions?

    Thank you

    Shenzi,

    I hope that you do not follow these instructions exactly as shown. If you:

    Copy (edition > copy)

    Hide visibility (object > hide selection)

    Then you will not be able to select the object > decaying appearance, because nothing will be selected.

    For clarity:

    Live vector effects really are the real paths. But while remaining in Illustrator, they are paths that are re-generated on-the-fly each time you change the original path. When the work leaves Illustrator (by exporting or printing), get effects 'nailed' to the paths / objects generated by the live effect raster.

    The object > Expand appearance command is if you can "nail" live effects you have applied to an object to real paths (or raster objects) while remaining inside the Illustrator.

    Simply select the access to which you applied the effect Pucker & bloat path. Select object > decaying appearance. The result will be that the result of the effect of contraction & bloating made as a normal path. It will not effect 'live' more. If you think that you will still need to start more, return to the step in which you always had the live effect (adjustable), you can make a copy of the object with the effect applied before you expand appearance and set aside for future use. But there is no need to do this if you are already satisfied with the effect.

  • Some handles Bezier figure is not in the path (CS6)

    Hello

    I'm animating an object bouncing.

    2 first keyframes for the Position property are OK - Bezier handles are shown on the path. However, since the third bazien keyframe handles no more and I'm unable to smooth the path.

    This problem disappear and reappear since I started using AE and it does not matter if the keyframes are facilitated in/out or not. What is going on?

    bezier.png

    Select the tool (g) feather and then you move on to the vertex and you will have the opportunity to highlight the Bezier handles on the path. You will see the convert vertex tool and V appear on the side. This is the tool you want. You can also manually select the tool vertex disguised by clicking and now on the tool pen in the toolbar. Alternatively, you can hold the Alt/Option key with vertex tool to convert selected to break them and the handles operate independently. Hold down the Ctrl/Cmnd key will give you a selection tool instead of the tool convert Vertex which will allow you to move the vertex or adjust Bezier handles. If you have a single keyframe selected in the timeline panel, you will see only Bezier handles on the two closest handles. If you want to see all the Bézier handles select all the keyframes in the timeline.

    In your example of a timeline there is no Bézier handles because the spatial interpretation is linear. You can create these edges by simply clicking on a Summit that has the Bézier handles with the convert vertex tool selected.

  • is there a way to get the index of the html text field cursor position

    I'm working on a block of text as MC with 'insert text at position X' and 'Find and replace' can someone tell me how to find the index of an html text field cursor. Selection.getBeginIndex (), Selection.getEndIndex (), Selection.getCaretIndex () as far as I know these methods only work with text and not htmltext.
    What I'm trying to do, it's affecting different parts of the chain to the variables so that I can combine in order to restore my html string.

    ray1872:

    If I understand correctly, you want the corresponding position in the
    another index of the caret htmlText property (who, like you, has no on the)
    position in the plain text of the textfield content version).

    Here's how I'd do. It is perhaps easier or more effective
    way (using objects XML etc.), but I don't know it. You could conduct all
    your search string in plain text and then convert the result of
    the positions of html. I didn't build this to accept negative parameters
    for the parameter pos (for example, end of string towards the back), but the
    function could be adapted to do this also if necessary. The test data is
    not good html from a text field, but it does not really matter what he
    is as long as its formatting correctly. It separates only tags of
    content to allow apples to apples comparison.

    some test data
    var testStringXML = ""Hello I can't tell you hOE happy I mod.'; "
    var undecoratedString = Hello "I can't tell you how happy I am.";

    the conversion function
    function findDecoratedPosition(pos:Number,_xmlString:String,_test:Boolean):Number {}
    anything between '<' and="" '="">' should be excluded from the search in plain text.
    create a table of elements of array (n = 2), consisting of tag and then plain text
    requires xml/html properly put in the form
    var tempArr:Array = xmlString.split (')<>
    for (var aa = 0; aa
    tempArr [aa] is [aa] tempArr,.split(">").;
    }
    remove the first and last elements in the new array (they are empty)
    tempArr.pop ();
    tempArr.shift ();
    find the location of corresponding plaintext and calculate the position "decorated."
    var retPos:Number = 0;
    var posCount:Number = 0;
    for (var aa = 0; aa
    retPos += tempArr [aa] [0] .length + 2 + tempArr [aa] [1] .length;
    + 2 allows you to lack< and="">
    posCount += tempArr [aa] [1] .length;
    If (posCount > pos) {}
    return (retPos + (pos-posCount));
    }
    }
    out of range
    Returns - 1;

    }

    test code:
    for (var aa = 0; aa
    var altPos = findDecoratedPosition (aa, testStringXML);
    trace (undecoratedString.charAt (AA) +"position" + aa + "in clear corresponds to the position" + altPos + "in decorated version [" + testStringXML.charAt (altPos) + "" "]" ");

  • ChnLinGenImp do not convert the value of units

    Hello

    I use the ChnLinGenImp command in a creation of such as channel below.

    The question that I am running, I run the script for a conversion unit that converts the units if they are incorrect.  However the part convert does not convert the IMP channel, because it is a path of IMP.  Is in any way around that in addition to going to the ChnLinGen command?

    Hello J,

    Only two options I know in tiara 2012 are:

    (1) give and make a meaningful string instead of an implicit string and let conversions of unit of the tiara to manage all

    (2) manage your implicit channels separately and re-create them whenever there is a change of unit - but you have to manage the offset and the conversion factor

    For the linear unit conversions as degC to degF, I could imagine DIAdem running automatically on the offset values and factor of the implicit channel, BUT not all unit conversions are linear, and there must be able to operate on the values of the channels - you can not apply a non-linear conversion to a y = mx + b equation and get another y = I x + b' equation.

  • How can I return the path of a test step VI in LabVIEW?

    I would create a VI that will return all of the VI paths that are associated with the test steps in a TestStand sequence.  How can I return the path of the VI associated with a test step?  Here is a starting point that will return the first step of the sequence.

  • Installed application behaves differently by the path of the file

    Hi all! I have a problem regarding my application installed on another pc from "My Installer", that I have built my original labview project.

    I wanted to set up a file open/create operation, get the path of the current file of my vi, create the new folder 'report' and the new report file, whose name is composed of the date and time when it is created. With 'Get string date/time', I got the date as '25/05/2015' string and time string like '14:24:20 ', and 'find and replace the string' I have them is converted into '25052015' and "142420" everything simply by replacing "/"and":" with nothing.

    It works fine with the original vi in my pc, but with the application installed on another pc, I got error in the path, that instead of 'C:\...\report\transducer_25052015_142420.txt', I got "C:\...\report\transducer_25052015_14.24.20.txt"!  The colomns are replaced by dots!

    I have no idea why my installed application would give such error. Someone has an idea?

    PS. I tested on the difference between 'Run application path of time' and the file path by default, you can see on the image below.

    You can provide a format if you use the Format Date/time string.  You don't need to replace the then you do not have to worry about getting to be in the way in which the system settings.

  • Tension running from negative to positive to a negative value again using a structure case

    Hello

    I a VI that takes place (not shown) DAQ hardware and want to do the following with it:

    By feeding the starting value (the maximum negative value of voltage), increase (positive) and the end value (maximum positive) voltage for the DAQ hardware TRADERS (should be

    shown in the digital display) should go to gradually change from negative to positive maxima and do the reverse process of return to the starting value

    which is the maximum negative value.

    for example

    If I put - 3V to the starting value, 0.5 as increment, + 3 V to the end value, I should get the following:

    -3, -2,5, 2,...,.0,..., 2.5, 3 and then 2.5, 2..., 0,...,-2, 2.5-3, then stops.

    I managed to get the first which is negative to positive Maxima but he never do otherwise. Can anyone help with this.

    Thank you very much

    Alain

    Study the attached example.  Instead of having just a graph showing each DC voltage at each iteration, I made a graph that will update to show all the steps as they occur.  The waveform that is the scale of things is to properly size the chart so you can see each stage without having the graph resize with each iteration of the loop.  You can pass values to your DAQ hardware to get the real exit.

    I used a second shift for such direction suggested by Altenbach register.  It is to go to the best (maybe the only way).
