Define Custom Shapes does not work in Photoshop CS5

It seems impossible to define the shape in Photoshop CS5. This option in the Edit menu always remains grayed out...

Can someone check and see if this is the case in your own installation of the program?

Same procedure works in Photoshop CS4 very well, but not in CS5...

This is because you have the wrong thing selected with the path. Select the path with the path Selection (the black arrow) tool, and then switch the mode add to shape area in the Options bar to make the white part of the nail of the thumb inside

  • Why Define Custom Shapes does not work because of a program error?

    I was selecting a path, to create a custom shape, and I got a program error message, that States "cannot complete the Define Custom Shape command because of a program error." How can I fix it?

    Post edited by: Trevor Dennis [confusing typo in the subject line corrected]

    In fact, I checked and found a pre-announcement that clarifies the issue. I'm the Photoshop classroom in a book and created the paths using the subtraction of the form. After this post, which will result in a program error, that the procedure would be to use exclude shapes that overlap. I was going to try this anyway. Beautiful when books are wrong... Nothing has been said in the paper on the creation of a new fill layer

  • The function "Save as" does not work in Photoshop CS5

    Hello, I downloaded Photoshop CS5 in trial mode, but the "feature" ' Save as ' and 'Save' do not work, I can't save my work, it's a restriccion to be in test mode? I use Windows XP sp2 with 1.5 GB of RAM, 100 GB HD and Intell 2.6 Ghz processor. Before Photoshop CS5, I had installed the CS4 Suite and worked perfectly well. Could you help me with this?.

    The trial required no limitation to save files. Simply, it will stop working after 30 days. In any case, the problems with file dialog boxes appears not could be one of the following reasons:

    • you use a skin / theme that is not compatible with the standard Windows dialog boxes
    • you use a dialog box special characteristic repositioning of your graphics driver
    • your user's home directory is not the default value of the system, for example your "My files" folder is not in c. \Documents and Settings\You\... This can cause problems with authorization, or the program is not just find a place to start.

    To look into these things. Also try to use the right file--> Open... procedure instead of just drag & drop. With this method, the program will remember that last and that directories can avoid the whole issue.

  • Drawing a custom profile does not work for me. It works for you?

    Drawing a custom profile does not work for me. It works for you?

    I can only apply on an existing line, but cannot make a new one with the selected profile. In fact if I change the profile other than the default uniform I also can't draw a new stroke with any other width than the default 1 point. This does not seem normal.

    Use the SC5 on a PC.

    You have "Art has basic appearance nine" checked in the appearance Panel Menu? If Yes... Clear the check box, and then try again.

  • UCM, RIDC sorting using custom metadata does not work

    I'm doing a search using GET_SEARCH_RESULTS and I am trying to sort the results, but unfortunately it does not work. I get this exception:

    Unable to retrieve search results. Error occurred while retrying the search query. Error occurred while processing. Unable to return results.

    to the sample. Connection.main (Connection.Java:661)

    The binder is like:

    binder.putLocal ("IdcService", "GET_SEARCH_RESULTS");

    binder.putLocal ('ResultCount', '10');

    binder.putLocal ("QueryText', 'xDocAudvTitle < contains >"togados"');

    binder.putLocal ('SortField', 'xDocAudvTitle');

    binder.putLocal ("SortOrder", "Asc");


    If I do not use the sortField and SortOrder parameter, the query retrieves the correct results.


    Any idea on this exception?


    Kind regards

    Juan Carlos.

    Thank you all,.

    The problem is that the custom metadata field is of type Memo, both because of its size is not optimizable, so I can't sort by using xDocAudvTitle.

    I'm done with the help of another field to sort.

    Once again, thank you to you two.

    Kind regards

    Suddenly having a problem where the command 'Fill' does not work. It isn't okay if I use SHIFT + BACKSPACE or SHIFT + F5 or by going in Edition > fill. He's going through the motions and fill actions is recorded in the history panel, but the layer is not met. The only way that I filled with success is with the paint bucket, and it's just not as convenient.

  • Trace the path does not work in photoshop

    I am doing a logo and the route of the path was working fine. I took the file in illustrator to do something, it has exported in photoshop and now the route of the path does not work. I can right click and select 'Show the way', but it is not fixing the brush stroke. I searched the net and cannot find any solution.

    Can anyone help?

    Hi, I've never really understood why this happened, because no body responded with anything. But what I did is save the file and it opens again in photoshop and it started working. I guess the only thing I can suggest is to check the layer is rasterized or duplicate a new screen and see if it works like that.

  • Why addChild (new Shape()) does not work?

    I would like to know why the following code does not work:

    < mx:Application >
    ..
    private function doShape (): void {}
    var aShape:Shape = new Shape();
    this.addChild (aShape);
    }
    ..
    < mx:Button click = "doShape ()" / > "
    < / mx:Application >

    According to the docs, addChild() takes a DisplayObject instance as a parameter. The shape is a DisplayObject. However, I get an error (#1034) that the form cannot be converted to mx.core.IUIComponent

    I don't understand what the problem...

    Yes, it's always a witch hunt in a first time. Flex containers (for example, canvas, Panel, etc) may have only UIComponents and children, not only of DisplayObject. The thing is, one UIComponent can have simple DisplayObjects as children, so you have to wrap your form:

    var temp: UIComponent = new UIComponent();
    temp.addChild (aShape);
    this.addChild (temp);

  • State buttons sensitive icon does not work in Photoshop CC?

    Running the following code (found in the ScriptUI for Dummies guide) in ExtendScript Toolkit works fine:

    var dir = "/d/scriptui/fig/";
    var icons = {a: File(dir+"icon-a.png"), b: File(dir+"icon-b.png"), 
                c: File(dir+"icon-c.png"), d: File(dir+"icon-d.png")} 
    var w = new Window("dialog");
     b = w.add ("iconbutton", undefined, ScriptUI.newImage (icons.a, icons.b, icons.c, icons.d)); 
    w.show(); 
    

    .. hovering over / clicking on the icon changes its status. However, if I change to run in Photoshop, it does not. The dialog box is displayed with the button, but it does not change if I hover over or click it. Does anyone know why?

    Thank you!

    Hi Constantin.

    This is a bug that occurred when you changed the underlying infrastructure of ScriptUI window in Photoshop CC 2015.  See Photoshop UI toolkit for plug-ins and scripts for more details.

    I reported this so it can be fixed.

    Thank you!

  • All custom settings does not work

    Hello guys im new to this software and I'm trying to work through the features of it.

    On the definition of a set of metric, I configured the xml file and place it in/usr/lib/vmware-vcops/tomcat-enterprise/webapps/vcops-custom/WEB-INF/classes/resources/reskndmetrics

    But then nothing has happened when I put the graphic metric widget to display what you want to see. I have attached the file xml, you guys can see what's wrong with that?

    using vcops version im is 5.7.1

    BTW, a couple more questions:

    1: I shot the attr_key of ip/vcops-custom/dbAccessQuery, it will give the same result of ip/dbAccessQuery? as I do not have access to him

    2: I put the metric chart widget to receive the resource selected and no parameters, and friendly mode of reference defined for the XML wrote, it works this way?

    3: from time to time, it will show some graphs generated randomly, what that means?

    Res type file will not work for everyone, aag. Remove the "attrkeyId =" areas, such as those that are unique to each vC deployment Ops. Sometimes, they "arrive" are the same, but that's all.

    The only thing wrong with the original Jimmy file, they used "characters instead of"characters. Always use "characters.

    Jimmy, make sure you chmod 644 and put "admin" as the owner of this file of res type interactions, otherwise they will not work.
