  • How to remove the unwanted parts of drawing black and white line

    I scanned in a flower art simple black and white lines.  I would like to remove some of the petals in Photoshop.  How can I do?

    Thank youFlower003.jpg

    I would like to remove the petals from the background.

    1 method: with the select magic wand the white bg, select-> invert the selection and create a layer mask.

    The layer mask is a monochrome picture, transparent black, white is opaque and anything in between is more or less transparent.

    You can now select the layer mask, use the brush and black paint, where you want to have something white, removed where you want to have something added. It is non-destructive and works very well on your photo.

    You can use shift click to 'draw' the small lines to attach to the top. According to the clarification, it will take more or less time. As I said are non-destructive.

    Second method: you use the pen to draw the lines around your flower vectors. With little exercise, you'll very quickly and you can always adjust the curvature of your curve, by pulling on the handles of the curve. Here you can see how it works: drawing with the pen in Photoshop tools .

    When done with the pen tool, you can add the vector line as a vector mask. You can even refine your mask after finishing. I suggest, since a mask of course work at a refined mask.

    The flower should not be on a layer, a background layer. Basemap layers have no transparency. The two methods are non-destructive, so you can return to the original image or parts of it, whenever you want.

  • I created a black and white line drawing and then filled with black and white patterns. How do I trace the image so I can color in every room in the background and an image?

    I traced a line drawing, then live painted models who are also black and white line drawings.

    I can't paint directly because parts of the background are not drawn parts.

    Not sure if this makes sense?

    I did a black and white coloring made in illustrator that I need to trace and color.

    The model split into vectors when you go to object > break down.

  • Illustrator draw shape Snap

    Nice day

    I use the application Illustrator draw for Ipad.

    I put in place a rectangular grid with the form slam the feature turned on. However, my shapes and lines do not seem to automatically align the grid.

    Is there something I am doing wrong? Or I understand the concept of Snap form function?

    Hello

    It's a good question, and I try to answer in kind of the same way, that I was when I got the same Q.

    If you choose say a 90 ° on the shape and then click Create a form, what happens with the snap of the form, is that if you rotate your shape very slowly, you will notice a point during the rotation that when you get to 90 °, an orange outline and a 'click' appear for a blink of an eye. This means that your straight line is at 90 °

    So try to use it again and never drop the view of your Board of Directors during the rotation of the shape, you will see the hanging and therefore explain to you if she is there for the use that you need or if it is not your piece of cake

    I hope this helps!

  • Basics on how to animate elements and organic lines?

    Hi all

    I am relatively familiar with AE, but so far have only used for effects and video. I experimented with motion and animation and want to learn more on how to create "Cartoon", flowy things, best demonstrated in this video with the lines little accent and stuff (the first 10 seconds should provide a good idea). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eApJGC02dA

    Have been looking for a good tutorial, but don't know what this is called, and have so far only found stuff on the animation of blobs liquids etc., which are cool, but not really what I want. I would really appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction or give some advice.

    Thank you!

    Cheerio,

    Nicholas

    If you talk about the edges distorted on the text and the lines of emphasis, you see here:

    Then you can create the text effect using several techniques, including the rough edges, move Turbulent.

    The lines could be a rough animated with edges shape layer or move Turbulent applied. Just draw a few lines with the pen tool and animate their length and their position if necessary.

  • Drawing shapes in layers with CS3

    I work with Photoshop Extended v10.0.1 on Mac OS 10.5.8

    I went to PS v10.0.1 v5.5. Great leap forward.

    In version 5.5, I could use the on-line tool, the tool Rectangle or any other shape to draw on different layers tool. I could control the line width and color. You would be able to see all the different forms on different layers all at once, unless of course you have hidden a layer. Now in 10.0.1 if I pull a single shape on a layer, then another on a second layer, the second layer makes the first disappear. In fact I can't draw several shapes on any single layer, the PS is always automatically a new layer for the new form. I tried the manual for this search and can not find the solution. I know that a lot changed between these two versions, but is there something I need to do to be able to draw shapes on different layers (and multiple shapes on a layer), and make them all visible as if it were on v5.5?

    See this post on the shape with a stroke and no fill layers.

  • Zoom in the photo and the line at the same time?

    So, I accomplished the ability to zoom in/out of an image on the front panel, with user input. And I discovered separately how to programmatically create a line in the block diagram with draw several Lines.vi, and it appears on the front panel to run. But now, I'd like to combine the two so that I have a photo zoomable on the front panel that has even a coded line that is simultaneously zoomed on at the same time as the picture. You know, so that zoom is the same for the image and the line and the line is always proportional to the same place on the image as it was before zooming.

    For now, I tried to stack the line with the image, but it's no dice. The line appears and is zoomable in front, but the image disappears. I would like to have visible both with line ontop of photo and zoomable by the zoom control switch.

    I have screenshots of the block diagram and façade below.

  • How to make SQL * more count the comment and blank line numbers?

    Hello

    Parameter
    Value of the parameter
    Oracle versionEnterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64 bit
    OPERATING SYSTEMLinux Fedora Core 17 (X86_64)

    I would like to know, is it possible to force SQL * Plus to provide the number of the current in the source file line whenever there is an error? I often put in the first line of my script SQLBLANKLINES the VALUE ON that I may be able to put several consecutive blank lines in my code (I do that sometimes, when I find that it is appropriate to make my code more readable or a sequence of instructions which I believe make their logic more comprehensible for the reader of the Group)

    Now the problem is that SQL * Plus will ignore these empty lines and whenever there is an error, the line number in the error message does not match the actual line number in the source file, but it seems to be the last non-empty line in the file.  Consider the following example:

    SET SQLBLANKLINES ON;

    DECLARE
        var PLS_INTEGER := 10;
    BEGIN


       
        var := 20
    END;
    /

    In the code above on line 9 (also counting blank lines), there is an error (no semicolon at the end of the var: = 20) but when I run the script

    SQL * also, here is the error message I get


    SQL > @myscript.sql;

    END;

    *

    ERROR on line 8:

    ORA-06550: line 8, column 1:

    PLS-00103: encountered the symbol "END" when expected in the following way:

    * & = - + ; <>/ is mod remains not rem

    < an exponent (*) > <>or! = or ~ = > = < = <>and like2 or

    like4 likec between | submultiset of type multiset Member

    The symbol ';' was replaced by 'END' continue.


    SQL >


    As you can see the error message indicates that the error was found on line 8, while in the file, it's really on line 9

    As long as the number of lines in the script is limited, this may not be a problem and we can quickly find the actual line number in the code that causes the error, but for a code, including hundreds (or even thousands) of lines and with many comments and blank lines, find line number given by SQL * error message more becomes complicated.

    So my question: is it possible to make SQ * more properly draw the line numbers, as they appear in the source file?

    Thanks in advance,

    Kind regards

    Dariyoosh

    Hi, Dariyoosh,

    The line numbers in error messages are always from the beginning of the statement, but not the file.  The back-end which checks the errors and generates the error message, has no idea if this statement has appeared in your file, even if the statement was in a file at all, or if it comes from multiple files, each with its own line 1.

    You can divide your scripts into parts, so that the long statements, which may lead to error messages, are each in a separate file, so the statement starts on the line 1 of the file.

    For example, you can call a script called fubar.sql, which looks like this:

    SET SQLBLANKLINES ON;
    
    @@fubar_1
    

    Which calls another script, called fubar_1.sql, located on the same directory as fubar.sql, that looks like this

    DECLARE
        var PLS_INTEGER := 10;
    BEGIN
    
        var := 20
    END;
    /
    

    You never call him directly fubar_1.

  • Layers with black and white line drawings.

    I am trying to create a black and white line drawing illustration. I did my drawings on paper and scanned them. Can I PLACE each part of the drawing in its own layer to photoshop. How can I better get the top layer to have a transparent background, so that it is 'visible' to the other layer?

    (For example, I have a little girl brushing his teeth.) I also drew the washbasin and the mirror and wardrobe that will see behind the girl. When I put them in two of these pictures I've drawn and scanned, the white background of the girl covers the background picture of the sink and the Cabinet. I tried to use the magnetic tool to trace around the girl and then I copy and paste on another layer and get rid of the original opaque. My lines out as clean and clear as I'd like. Is there a better way?)

    Another question: on one of my layers, I want to adjust the size, cut it down and possibly do a spin. How this transformation of size on a single layer and not the entire file?

    Hi redpenpenny,

    C.pfaffenbichler said, "multiply" blending mode is your friend here.

    To illustrate this, take a look at this composite that I made using my Wacom tablet:

    1. I drew two coats, one with a face and a with a bubble, they are located on separate layers and both have a white background (like your digital images)

    Fig 1:

    Fig 2:

    2. then, I selected the top layer (which is being the bubble) and changed the blend mode 'multiply '.

    Fig. 3:

    3. the white background fades and the two designs are now visible.

    Fig. 4:

    4. just for fun, I placed a texture of paper, I found online on the bottom layer and put my face "Multiply" layer that actually seems as if it was drawn on paper.

    Fig. 5:

  • drawing shapes to specific dimensions

    I am very new to Photoshop (CS4) and use it to create illustrations for web design. Can someone tell me how to score forms? For example, I want to quote a graphic banner - consists of rounded rectangle - and then know the size I want it in Dreamweaver, but can't see a way to set it up in Photoshop. I have experience using CAD, so I'm used to be able to draw shapes very easily to an exact size (this knowledge is probably inhibit me indeed - think that my brain is always in the mode CAD!).

    I am a beginner on Photoshop and Dreamweaver! Any help much appreciated!

    Its easily done, but its hidden in a submenu.

    In the toolbar on the left, navigate to the shape tool

    Click it

    At the top of your screen is a bar with all the different shapes (square, circle, Star etc.)

    At the end of this is a blue arrow

    Click on that and enter in the boxes "fixed size", specifying your units

    Took me forever to learn about it

    (PS I'm only on CS3 so I hope that this still applies in CS4)

  • The film shared iMovie displays noise and horizontal lines where I have added a few pictures

    I've added a few photos at the end of my film (about 7 min long, 4 k, but to 1020), but at the beginning a few black and white lines appear instead of the photo and this also happens with another photo.

    Are you by chance using iMovie 11 (version 9)?  This does not work with still photos under El Capitan, only the last version, 10.1.2.

  • Scrolling with the mouse on the pages to create black and white, lines

    When scrolling with the mouse, periodically the entire screen turns into black and white lines. Page sometimes together, sometimes just from ads pictures/side. If you continue to scroll disappear but you need to scroll to where the lines have begun, it's hard to explain, I took 1 picture of the problem but will have more photos that I can, I love how Firefox works on my computer, it has always been the best browser for my needs. I recently bought a new desktop computer, but he did so also, so I deleted and tried to launch the Explorer and Google and I don't like, so I hope that we can settle this problem.

    I don't know if it solved the problem, but he didn't precisely these days. Thank you

    Hello Arnold,.

    A screenshot of the upper-left corner of your document could help the issue. Include as much as in the example below.

    If this section of the table does not display data "doubled and shifted", provide a second screenshot of a section of the same size, showing a sample of the data in question.
