Create traces from the drawings of the hand

I'm sorry if it is a bit a fundamental question - I'm a newbie to Illustrator.  I've always used photoshop and now I have to switch to illustrator to create vectors according to drawings/files for my new job (creator of print mode).

I do a lot of hand drawing (I'm a print designer) and scan them in handling on the computer.  Is it possible to trace these designs (they are black and white printing designs), so that all of the black images become editable vector paths/outlines?

OR I have to draw everything by hand (still) on the computer?  I would really appreciate some advice because I need to rethink my working methods quickly!

Roxy Silver,

I was wondering if, when you use the vectorization (I have CS4) the areas can be changed rather than just the whole image.  It of just because I now need to go change the different parts of the composition and put it in the repetition, adding and removing some of the drawing.
The trace function creates editable vector traces following the borders of/between areas of different color pixels, and they can be changed for each anchor point and their handles, used to define the paths. So the pieces can be changed freely.

Thank you much.  If I can't edit some of the specific aspects of a scan I think I'll have to learn to draw directly in illustrator to save time, as you suggest.

Combination of HRT may be good, maybe as a transition effort, even if you end up using the pen tool. You can use and compare the function of trace, pen and brush/pencil tool.

  • problem creating oscustomisationspec from the command line

    Hello

    I have a problem when you create or modify a command line oscustomisationspec

    If I change the administrator password or domain password I have a problem when you use the customisationspec

    error is cannot decrypt the password

    the public key in the specification does not match the public key of vcenter...

    When I create this oscustomisationspec of my xp machine I have no problem

    When I create my Management Server I have the problem

    and when I create it from the vcenter itself I have the question too

    I don't understand why I'm using the right button of my computer and not a server

    If I create the customspec of the client vsphere vcenter or on the management server, it works well

    Another thing

    If I export customization of my computer the plain text for the password value is false

    If I export the customization of the server the value of plaintexst is true

    my machine is xp

    the waiters are win2003 and win2008

    can anyone help?

    Hello, DanielSoares-

    This could be linked to the bug referenced in the thread to the http://communities.vmware.com/thread/297748.  Here, broedi and vitalibaruh done by are the property of plain text for passwords in the spec is set to $false instead of $true when.  They discuss this issue when using New-OSCustomizationSpec to clone an OSCustomizationSpec, but I got the same behavior you describe when you create a new persistent by using New-OSCustomizationSpecOSCustomizationSpec.

    In the thread (the post to http://communities.vmware.com/thread/297748?start=18), vitalibaruh (from the team of PowerCLI) mentions that he's filed a bug for this behavior.

    So for now, the solution seems to be to create the OSCustomzationSpec via the vSphere client and, if you want to work with a copy of the spec (to add/modify credentials, for example), use the API to clone the spec (via the DuplicateCustomizationSpec() method) and then use Set-OSCustomizationSpec to make changes to the clone.  I've posted an excerpt on the use of this method twice in this same thread.

    Is not ideal, but that market.  I hope this helps.

    What I meant is that if you load the XML e4x, you have to analyze in a table to use it. You can retrieve the syntax of e4x XMLList and use it directly in your code. You can treat the XMLList almost as you treat any array using a for each loop for example.

    Take the code below as an example and adapt it to your needs:

    var mainMenu:XMLList = this.testXML.menu;

    for each {var menu: XML (in mainMenu)}

    trace ("Menu:" + menu.@txt);

    You can use your logic to create menu main point here

    var mynavItem:Navitem = new Navitem (0, spatie * i, GlobalVarContainer.my_array [i] [0], [i, 0], false, true);

    this.holder.addChild (mynavItem); ABLE TO VIEW THE MAIN MENU

    var items: XMLList = menu.children ();

    If (items.length () > 0) {}

    for each {var point: XML (in the points)}

    trace ("point:" + item.@txt);

    Logic of creation of subitem here

    var mySubnavItem:Navitem = new Navitem (dash, spatie * (i + 1 + j), GlobalVarContainer.my_array [i] [2], [i, j], true);

    this.holder.addChild (mySubnavItem);        DISPLAYS ONLY THE LAST ENTRY IN THE SUBMENU

    }

    }

  • Create signals from the software

    I am trying exteranlly trigger a camera by using its ready digital signal reading to invoke the next trigger.

    The code below triggers a pulse counter, whenever there is a signal of falling on PFI0 edge:

    camShutterOutputTask.COChannels.CreatePulseChannelTime ("Dev1/ctr0", "",)
    COPulseTimeUnits.Seconds, COPulseIdleState.Low,
    0,
    0.000001,
    (((double) exposure_time) / 1e6);

    camShutterOutputTask.Triggers.StartTrigger.ConfigureDigitalEdgeTrigger ("/ PFI0/Dev1", DigitalEdgeStartTriggerEdge.Falling);
    camShutterOutputTask.Triggers.StartTrigger.Retriggerable = true;

    Right now it works very well by linking PFI0 to a USB-6002 output to test. Every time I press a button to send a signal of USB-6002, I see a shock occurs.

    However, when connecting to a physical camera, PFI0 will be connected to the display of the camera. I need a way to manually launch the first impulse on the software side move the following loop. Is it possible to do?

    Hi Joehsiao,

    How long do you expect to be taken between the time the camera receives the initial impetus until when the camera on the impulse arrives on PFI0? If it's a pretty long time, then you could just reconfigure the task for counter 0 after the initial pulse. For example, you set up initially to generate a pulse based on a one-time event (application startup, event button user, time, etc) and then once it generates this initial impetus, clear this task (or change), so that the meter to exit task is then configured to trigger the signal coming from the PFI 0.

  • RV220W - Mode Exchange of help from the 'hand '.

    We have not been able to get the swap mode of 'Hand' (with IPSecuritas/Mac Lion) on the RV220W as we had the WRVS4400N v2.

    It seems that the RV220W does not use the local IP address next to the "hard-coded" we implemented IPSecuritas.  It seems to look at the WAN IP address.  It makes sense because that is how to define the IKE policy on the RV220W (to use remote Type of identifier of "Remote WAN IP" (Internet)), but we were hoping that ipsecuritas would be able to simulate the remote IP address (similar to how it did for the WRVS4400N v2).

    I hope I'm making sense.  Does anyone at - he had success with the exchange of 'Hand' mode to work with IPSecuritas on a Mac?

  • Button remove row created dynamically from the Table

    In the form below, I can't any of the buttons to work properly.

    There is a table at the bottom of the form and to the right a green + button. Clicking this button adds a row to update. This line when it appears has a delete on the left (white red with "X") button. If I click on the delete button, it works fine. But if I create several of these updates of lines, by clicking on the button on the third instance removes the first instance instead of the third instance. How can I fix it?

    https://Acrobat.com/#d=4mzuO1Pjz-0Z4ntuLZAy4w

    On the Remove button, you must change the setting stayed the removeInstance.

    removeInstance (this.parent.parent.index - 1);

    When you simply type this.parent.index, it refers to Subform3 where there is always only one instance.  You add instances of Row1 [1] as a result, you must climb a level more.  This.parent.parent.index. because you use Row1 [1] then you must use-1 as it is good otherwise will be the incorrect instance

    If you had an exclusive name each line, you can then use this.parent.parent.index (without the - 1).

  • AppleScript: Create logos from the list of colors and hexagonal layer

    I'm writing an AppleScript script that will create a bunch of PNG files of:

    (1) a list of hex colors

    (2) a Photoshop CS4 file that consists of a simple form that uses a logo as a vector mask layer.

    I want to end up with different color versions of the logo - a red, a Meerschaum, one, a burnt sienna, etc. etc.

    So far, I have this:

    each word worth colorlist '002266 005566 006611...'

    currentFilepath destinationFolder value & theCurrentValue & ".png".

    Save the current document in the file currentFilepath in PNG with options {interlaced: false}

    end repeat

    end tell


    So, how can I change the color of a shape layer?

    How can I specify the color as a hexadecimal value?

    Is this even possible things?

    ----------------

    Finally, it is just me, or is the incredibly obtuse Adobe documentation? Well, maybe this isn't the right word. How about "useless." For example, I searched for hex script reference, but all I found was this:

    A hexadecimal RGB color specification. Hexadecimal RGB color class inherits the properties of color

    text in Unicode, the hexadecimal representation of an RGB to hex color value

    The selection list call it P3_OWNER_GROUP or P3_OWNING_GROUP? If you are referring to a nonexistent element, it will always be null.

    Anyway, there is no real need for anon - block the nested, and the condition should focus specifically on the elements of the page that you are wanting to use in the query. I think it should be:

    DECLARE

  • Creating movieclips from the library "random" then move them.

    Hey everybody,

    I am currently working on a type of runner free 2D game for Android and iOS. What I'm trying to accomplish is spawning in some clips, which are sets of platforms formed how I'd like, when the game of previous platforms reaches a certain point on the left of the stage. I want the movieclip to come slightly to the right of the stage and move them to the left. This will keep spawning, randomly, one of the dozen sets platforms very much, making a runner for the infinite. The game I suppose that could be described as something like Jetpack Joyride, but platforms to add and subtract the jetpack. Anyone know it to spawn in movieclips and move them conditionally at best? Thank you in advance!

    -John

    To generate the library dynamically in aAS3 clips you must first assign a class name to each library.  Then add these class names in a table so that you can randomly select one of them.  To add them, you can use the name of the class as follows...

    var ClassRef: Class = Class (getDefinitionByName ("className"));

    var classInstance: * = new ClassRef();

    addChild (classInstance);

  • Create PDFs from MS Word documents with DWG files embedded


    Using Adobe Acrobat Pro XI, I regularly create PDF documents from MS Word documents with AutoCAD DWG files embedded.  If I print to PDF it is well with integrated designs but if I use the plugin Acrobat text in the drawings would then become too light to see in the created PDF file.  I need to be able to convert to PDF format rather than print them in PDF format in order to have the bookmarks and links created automatically.  What parameters control the darkness of drawings ACAD contained in MS Word files when they are converted to PDF files?

    Here are some screenshots from the built-in drawings prints/changed:

    Printed to PDF.JPG

    Convert:

    Converted to PDF.JPG

    This problem was caused by the use of dynamic blocks with several line colors and thicknesses in the original DWG files.  They were used to allow the quick creation of drawings in AutoCAD for several different components that share similar attributes.  Unfortunately when these drawings are incorporated in MS Word or PDF files is created directly from these drawings, items in the drawing would randomly disappear when a PDF file created from them.  The solution is to open each offending in AutoCAD DWG file, move everything to layer zero and set the thickness of the text elements.
