Duplicate the shape in place? CS6

Hello: Level: Beginner OS: Windows 7 64 bit Ps: Cs6

Yes, I read the manual, but I always try too tuts as I learn better when I have things as well as to read.

So here's today's dilemma

Tut Screen Shot.png

I did the form without problem and used the tool pen on form

The only way I could find to duplicate a shape (or path) in the user's manual is to select the tool path (the black arrow) in the tools Panel Selection and use Alt + drag

However, (as you can see) I need the form to stay in the same place - so I tried to slide in place - but double moves with the original shape and when I go to change the color - the color changes the two forms...?

Also, how can I tell if I have duplicated the path or shape?

Because once I have (we) understand how duplicate the shape & change the color of the duplicate just I so need double just the path.

Says tut to set the Mode of path duplicated to subtract, but it is not sensible me - it would seem that the Mode should be set to subtract beforehand.

Ideas, links or help is greatly appreciated. I'm going to continue searching the manual & FAQ

Thank you and hope that everyone is having a lovely day/night

Use the path Selection tool to take the path of access then Cmd + C Cmd + V to duplicate it. Subtract the value combined mode of a path in the path Selection tool options bar.

  • How to transform a mask on a shape layer? (CS6)

    I detached the layer mask to the shape layer and ensured that the thumbnail of the layer mask is selected in the layers palette.

    If I do a cmd - t on OSX to transform, Photoshop (CS6) selects the shape layer path to transform instead of the layer mask, even when the thumbnail of the mask is still selected, and even if I have a choice of brand.

    Is this a bug?

    Activate the move (V) tool and activate the option Show transform controls can transform the untargeted mask. By clicking on the small square handle will launch the mode of transformation.

    CS6 shape layer is really still the the shape layer pre - CS6 - a fill layer with a vector mask - but with the addition of a stroke attribute. The attempt to disguise as a new special type of layer resulted in inconsistencies, trouble, inconvenience, and deterioration of the workflow.

  • you attempt to add a web form of Business Catalyst to my site Web of Adobe Muse (via insert html) and the shape is cut all the content below where to place the html area.

    You attempt to add a web form of Business Catalyst to my site Web of Adobe Muse (via insert html) and the shape is cut all the content below where to place the html area. I tried the basic troubleshooting and it's only when I insert a form of Catalyst Business that my web page is cut, where is the bottom of the form. I use this code when you insert form BC in Muse,

    "< div class ="bulletin of information-form"> < form name ="catemaillistform58787"onsubmit ="return checkWholeForm58787 (this)"method ="post"action =" http://theincitejournal.BusinessCatalyst.com/CampaignProcess.aspx?ListId=53681& OPTIN = true & PageID = / index.html"> < div class ="form"> < div class ="item"> < label for ="CLFullName"> full name < / label > < br / > < input class ="cat_textbox_small"type ="text"name ="Full name"id ="CLFullName"maxlength ="255"/ > < / div > < div class ="item"> < label for ="CLEmailAddress"> E-mail address < / label > < br / > < input class ="cat_textbox_small"type ="text"name ="EmailAddress"id = '" "CLEmailAddress" MaxLength = "255" / > < / div > < div class = "item" > < label > Enter Word verification in box below < / label > < br / > {module_captchav2} < / div > < div class = "item" > < input class = "cat_button" type = "submit" value = "subscribe" id = "catlistbutton" / > < / div > < / div > < script type = "text/javascript" src = "http://theincitejournal.businesscatalyst.com/CatalystScripts/ValidationFunctions.js" > < / script > < script type = "text/javascript" > '

    The only settings I did took the H3 header on opt-in and page navigation after the action to get rid of the opt in BC function as default. I tried to download the source code as well and I'm having the same problem. The web Page is here " copy " and a version of what I was creating the page to look like here is ' home ' As you can see, the 'House' version allows me to scroll past where I would have placed the shape box while the 'copy' stops at any user to parade before. I have called the shape slightly from the "development" of British Colombia under the style sheets tab and still tried to trouble shoot and get rid of the code to see if it affects something and it did not add style. For some reason only the HTML to the form is but I cannot understand what the section of the code would do that. Any ideas?

    I see that you have inserted a script tag open that you forgot to close, which generates errors on the page and prevent it from be returned correctly. You should ensure that the code that you insert in the Muse is syntactically correct.

  • Duplicate the data in the table

    I am designing a form that contains two tables. The user is supposed to enter their data in the first table, and the data copied in the second table (so when they print the form, they have two copies of the same thing while having only to enter data only once).

    I created a dynamic with a line infeed table and the value of this line to repeat the row for each data item, the minimum number of 9. In this way, nine lines that appear when the shape makes it and increase it later, it is a simple change in this number. Then, I put all the fields in the table overall data binding and copied the table, setting the second table in read-only.

    My problem is, when I enter a value in the first field of data entry, it copies the data to the entire column of the table! I do not understand why it does this, since Adobe automatically renames duplicate fields (ie. row1Item will be row1Item [1] row1Item [2] and so on). I even went so far as to add a script to change the name of the fields:

    rownum var = this.parent.instanceIndex + 1;

    myIdName = "rowItemInput" + rownum;

    But that did not help at all. I still have the same problem.

    Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?

    So, I thought about it.

    First of all, the two arrays must be on the first page for ease. Secondly, all subforms (lines/tables, too) should be mentioned separately. Thirdly, the script does not work under initialize - it must be on calculate.

    Here's the script I ended up using:

    Place on the same page, the Table2.Row2.rowItemInput field.

    this.rawValue = xfa.resolveNode("Table1.Row1.rowItemInput").rawValue;

  • Since the last update of CS6 DW, impossible to find arrow in fluid grids be silent div... any suggestions?

    Since the last update of CS6 DW, impossible to find arrow in fluid grids be silent div... any suggestions?

    Hi JoshuaACertain,

    That is a good Question.

    DW now inserts the new item of default new line fluid.

    If the user does not want to start a new line, then they can click on the button "Move up a line" (like on the screenshot), after insertion of the element.

    This was done mainly because after the class supports in place now, user, use this option once and then simply duplicate the item to get the desired result (i.e. the brothers side by side) with a single click...

    Please let me know if something was not too clear in the video, I'll be happy to explain the same thing.

    See you soon,.

  • Cannot duplicate the button

    I developed a simple button I want to use where I need dozens of them in several menus, I love it, I want it.

    The problem is that still seems to create the duplicate in the original button. Try to drag the print out extends only the original and now the two buttons are not usable.

    This MAY be due to the fact that my preference for MY button is a simple squares around text, NOT a line, not an icon "Pretty" Next to the button. I use the place as the highlight (= 1) to the name of the shape.

    This was done using the tool of square shape and creating a style that allowed no fill color and a feature of the line.

    If the button was created two things, the text and the square with a style of creation.

    I used to use Adobe Encore in 1998, I could create buttons outside a menu, save it as a .psd and drag it into the library.

    When I do this now, using the button I used in 1998, still sees the button as a menu, not a button.

    If anyone can focus on this it would be mucho appreciated. It's very simple in DVD Studio Pro.

    PS

    I still use because that someone hated Apple Blu ray

    Duplication of the buttons can be done is still Photoshop.

    Select the button (only encompassing the green) with the selection tool, then hold down the ALT key and drag.

  • Office sync with two Macs leads to duplicate the files/folders

    Hi all

    I m using MacOS Sierra sync with desktop (and documents). Logged into my account, are two Macs (Air and a MB Pro). No I find in my iCloud drive a documents folder (it's good and the documents of the MB Air folder) and in this case a "Dokumente - MacBook Pro mg" folder which is the folder documents of my MB Pro (this is not so good). This isn't what I expected, I expected to have a documents folder which is identical on both machines. Does anyone know what I need to adjust to get things clear?

    Greetings from the Germany

    Mike

    I posted an article that explains all this to http://www.quecheesoftware.com/iCloud.html . This is a downloadable PDF file.

    Basically, you add to the folder Documents after activation of the synchronization of the files will be synchronized as you expect. But the files that were in your Documents on several Mac folders when you switch on for the first time on the synchronization will be placed in specific subfolders to your new folder of Documents iCloud Drive device. Apple apparently felt that he could not predict how each user would want their old files organized in the folder of Documents Drive iCloud, so Apple left to each user to reorganize the file later.

    I have now moved all my own files on the first level of my folder of Documents Drive iCloud and trashed the duplicate of the other device-specific folder. Now, everything syncs between computers, as expected. I left the two subfolders of specific to the device in place, either two empty for now, in case in the future that I might want to keep some files associated with one of the devices - for example, the alias files do not work on the other Mac. They will always sync in another subfolder, but at least I know to use it only on their own device.

    Apple certainly could have documented it better.

  • How to duplicate the same image side by side with automation

    I need to create sets - many photos, I want to do it in batch or automated because it is a lot too. I need to reproduce the same image next, basically to make the beds twin-packs. Can someone help me please?

    Thank you

    If I understand what you're trying to do it right, then it could work. It is very similar to my previous post, but now uses a little action that I created.

    (1) first, you need to action that I downloaded here

    DupSideBySide.atn - box

    (2) you then need to install the action. On the keyboard, press alt + F9 or option + F9 on a Mac to open the Panel actions. I always identify any existing action in the Panel. This does not remove them but clears the mess in the Panel shares. Then click «Clear all actions» Later, in order to restore the default actions just click on 'reset actions.

    (3) in the Panel shares will now be empty. Click the icon in the upper right and select "load actions".

    A dialog box opens and all you have to do is drag the action you just downloaded in this dialog box, highlight it and press load down.

    (4) you should see action in the Panel shares.

    (5) with the action in place start "image processor".

    (6) fill out the dialog box as needed. I opted to save jpeg, psd and tiff, but action does not care what kind of file selected. There is also no need to use the same folder names and places as I used it because they are not hard coded in the action. I created a folder named duplication on the office, which contains a subfolder called sidebyside but once again the subfolder is optional. The big difference here is the 'perform action' box and my DupeSideBySide action is selected, as shown below.

    (7) now, press the run button and it must duplicate and place next to all the images in the folder "duplication". The spacing between the images side by side is coded in the action are the borders hard, but I'm sure you can work out how to change them if necessary.

  • How to animate pushing in the face of the shape (photos)

    Hi people,

    I'm quite new to After Effects.  I'm trying to achieve an effect where I have a triangle and then inside the area of this triangle, another triangle gets drawn.  Then the face of this new triangle gets pushed into the deepest simulating the shape.  I mocked basically place this as my before and after the idea is to use sketchup, but I don't know how to do in aftereffects.  Any help or pointers to tutorials that do this kind of thing would be much appreciated!

    Thank you!

    If you try to reach this goal as a 3-d object you must use C4D lite or maybe same Blender (blender.org). If you just want to simulate 3D, you can simply animate layers and shape paths or create your 3D artwork that is simulated as a layered Illustrator file and create your animation separately.  Or the other technique will require a study on how to use the tools.

    Here's what fake 3D with shape layers might look like:

    I reorganized the workspace so you can see the properties changed and animated of shape layers. Here is the ASP for the project.

    Dropbox - fake 3d Triangle.aep (Note: your browser may add a .txt extension to the file ASP.) Just remove it and you should be able to open it.

  • Duplicate the size and the position of several objects.

    Is it possible to duplicate the position and size properties and apply them to different objects on slides?

    In short, I have short videos I want located at the same place on each slide more than 30 slides. The videos vary, but the slide location must be the same. It becomes particularly bulky on a sensitive project to manually adjust things for not only all the slides, but once again for Tablet and phone views as well.

    Use the Guides in Captivate 9: for projects of nature reactive, leaders are in % and you can use the snap to guides easily position the videos. Take a look on:

  • Morphing of the shape in question, where is my image of key path

    This is probably a really easy question, but I had way too much frustration about that.

    I am morphing shapes I've done successfully, but for some reason, I ran into this issue. When I create a form with the tool pen and then open content > shape 1 > 1 way is the keyframe, the path option.

    The problem:

    I then use the rectangle tool on the same shape layer or a separate shape layer and create my form, and then open content > rectangle 1 > 1 rectangle path and there is not an option for a path keyframe. The keyframe only options I get are size, position and roundness. Where is my path keyframe option?

    Is there a difference I know between the building shape with the pen tool and the shape tool?

    I watched a few tutorial on converting the form of Bézier, but when I click right I do not get this option.

    I use a mac with AE CS6

    Any help is very appreciated

    Make a right click on the name of the rectangle in THE TIMELINE, not the composition window, you can create a nonparametric form by pressing the Alt/Option key and choose only a form.
