• How to draw an arrow?

  Is there a quick way to draw an arrow in Flash? I saw 2006 assignments who say there is no, but I was wondering if there is a way in CS4?

  Thank you

  Click the polygon tool (click and hold the rectangle/Oval tool if you do not see polystar), select 3 side and draw a triangle.  Adjust the width/height according to your needs and add a line with the line tool or the rectangle.

• PDF Optimization removes lines for the arrows & circles

  I am using Acrobat 9 Pro for Mac.  I created documents that have need of arrows and circles around some of the images, & have created PDFs of these documents.  I need to optimize PDF files to reduce the size of the file, but in doing so, the PDF Optimization removes lines from the arrows & circles, leaving just the start & end points.  Here is an example of before and after optimization:

  

  I changed almost all the settings in the PDF Optimizer, but it always deletes the lines.  What I'm missing here?

  Thanks for your help!

  I just found it seems to do with the way that Word for Mac 2011 creates PDF via "Save as PDF".  I found that this works:

  1. In Word, print-> "Save as Adobe PDF" with the highest print quality.
  2. In Acrobat Pro, run optimization PDF with "Standard settings".

  I had the following results:

  • Original Word doc @ 17.2 MB
  • Adobe @ 14.2 MB PDF file
  • Optimized @ 3.8 MB PDF file

  It looks like a lot of steps for me, but it produces a PDF file of high quality to a decent size.

• Why is my 'paint' program drawing pixel separated instead of lines? + Info

  Hi, I just want to know why my mousedPressed() and mouseMoved() methods are not allowing me to draw a normal line. I noticed that as soon I move the cursor over the effect of rough pixel is present and the downturn, I have to move, more it looks like a line. Also, why isn't the background color of the Panel to be changed whenever I have add the paintComponent() method and what could I do to fix the problem?

• How to draw a color instead of cwColorSpectrum

  I use the .VI tubular line to draw the removal of a person with the GPS in a 3-d chart.  Now, I would like to draw this tube with a single color and no shade I could choose to represent and to differentiate each person.  I can't find how to do it with this VI.  Is that someone can help?  Thank you

  I tried each property node to replace ColorMapStyle by LineColor, PointColor and digital control... does not work!

  BTW, what is the meaning of the cw... in cwColorSpectrum?

  I have attached the VI of tubular line.

• Line tool - other arrows, dotted lines

  CS3 PC:

  The use of the tool in my toolbox online gives an arrow. Are there any other typesbesides of the default arrow? I would like a double-ended arrow to indicate the measurements on a technical drawing.

  In addition, using the pencil tool, I would like to be able to draw dashed or dotted lines.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you

  BTW, u8sing the word 'line' of the search function has produced zero responses. Not sure how this could be. Must be something wrong there too.

• Pages / Question: printing black fine lines table in black instead of halftones

  Hello community,

  someone know how to print tables with fine black (i.e. below 1 point) lines without halftoning of pages?

  I tried on several printers (laser and ink-jet, color as well as PC, usb and network connections).
  No matter what line table below 1pt is pure black halftone instead.

  It affects only the rows in the table. Forms with fine lines, small texts, etc. are okay.

  Any ideas? Help, please.

  Hi fraha,

  Try this. First turn off the grid.

  

  Now apply cell borders

• Arrows instead of the sliders in the demo?

  I'm ready to take the plunge for the CC of photography plan. However, what's weird is that in the downloaded evaluation version I have, I have arrows to set the various parameters of the image instead of the sliders. What gives?

  It seems to me have exhausted all attempts to find a reason for this, and now I'm asking here.

  The purchased version still uses the cursors? Is it a setting I can select in the demo version that I can't find? I looked at the preferences window, but do not see anything... could have missed it.

  Thanks for your time!

  I wonder... just in case you are in the DEVELOPMENT MODULE or in the library DEVELOP QUICK Module?  You can post a page so we can see what you mean

• Having a problem to draw lines with arrows

  Hello

  Maybe it's a bug/clitch side Illustrator and possibly without my knowledge.

  Every time I have to draw a line and put a race with arrowheads - everything works as it should.

  When I want to preset stroke and the tips of arrows and to draw the line with them – applies only the race but spikes are not applied, when I check options of race that I see other options that I set myself, but for arrowheads unset/no applied as they appear.

  I really need to shoot a lot of lines of the arrow and it would be too much of a hassle to manually set the arrowheads to each line.

  Hope you can help.

  Best regards

• Draw a line/Arrowhead shouldn't be this hard

  I spent about 20 minutes of reading/viewing several different tutorials re: how to create a line with an arrowhead with the tool online.

  All the tutorials show the user just draw a simple line, and an arrow to one end or the other.

  But whenever I try to replicate the process I get a form like this

  

  How can I get this form to go away and just get an arrow line, like this:

  

  Clearly, there are a few settings that I can not find.

  Thank you

• Drawing arrows

  I've always wanted to use Adobe Photo Shop Elements do a bit of my simple drawing and editing when I need to illustrate something.  But I've never understood the very simple things like drawing of a simple line with an arrowhead.  I drew an arrow (it was OK) but I tried to change the line thickness to make it heavier and I chose something wrong and now I get these rediculas arrows that I can't fix.  I can't tell you how many times this even happened, and therefore I give up and use Paint.  Can someone tell me how to fix this shit.  Help files explain the select line then go to the menu drop down and select start for arrowhead.  Obviously, I need help.

  

  In your case you just set too high line width and let go too soon. If you had kept away from his head after drawing the arrow, you would have gotten the normal framework of the tree to the research, just a really big arrow.

• How to draw an ellipse (hoop) around waist of a person?

  I need to draw an ellipse whose arrows around the size of a person to show the direction of motion of the exercise.  I don't have a graphics program as it is a unique project.  Is there a way to do it with Photoshop CS5, or is it just a plugin I can use with CS5?  Someone on the tool referenced internet related, but I was not able to use anything with the ellipse tool.  To look as if the person was at the Interior of the ellipse (line width) a bit as a hoop with the help of the arrows indicate the direction.  Thanks for all the ideas.

  Hello!

  Here are some steps that you can see what to replicate it at home:

  1. create a form of eclipse.

  

  2 change the filling, then the race.

  

  3 to change the ellipse, press Command + T.

  

  4 select the Eraser tool. Delete the part of the ellipse that interferes with the woman.

  

  5 you can see below the part I removed so that it seems that the ellipse is around the woman.

  

  6 to create arrows, I just selected the pen tool and adjust the background/outline. Draw an arrow on the outline of the ellipse.

  

  7 you can see the arrow below, I created. I then duplicated these forms (command-J) and spread them around the ellipse with the move tool.

  

  8 below you can see my finished product.

  

  Please let us know if you have any questions.
